Membership · Pricing
Simple, transparent pricing.
Membership is priced by the size of your company. Each Comcept™ you lodge carries a set registration fee. All amounts are in US dollars, and coverage applies while membership and applicable Comcept™ fees are current.

Each registration includes:
- Global database registration with a unique registration number.

The detail
Support, and the fine print
Support and services
Free legal guidance and negotiation assistance, charged as 25% of a successful outcome and only where Ideas Union is formally involved.
Usage of your registration number
Always include your Comcept™ registration number in the footer of relevant documents.
Important note
Ideas Union does not assess the originality or commercial value of your Comcept™. We do not view its contents unless you request it, or if required by a court of law.
Enterprise
Enterprise membership (1,001+ staff)
Enterprise membership covers 12 months of membership and allows global registration, storage, and negotiation services (charged at 25% of a successful outcome). It does not cover legal expenses in the event of a dispute — the reasoning being that a company of this size can afford its own legal representation.
