As a community interest company, we reinvest our funds into supporting queer creatives and creating LGBTQIA+ content that counts. We're ad-free, investor-free, and totally independent - so members are critical to our sustainability.
Why become 100% QueerAF?
- You know it's not enough for you alone to understand the LGBTQIA+ world - we need everyone to.
- You want to play your part in helping to change the media - so it can shift the narrative on queer lives positively.
- You believe in a different kind of queer news - focused on creating content because it counts for the community, not for clicks.
- You want to join a community of like-minded queers dedicated to supporting marginalised LGBTQIA+ people - who want to make the world better place.
QueerAF is a growing community of members who want to change the media by supporting LGBTQIA+ creatives' careers. Every membership helps fund our unique approach to queer journalism, as well as our wider work shifting the media landscape so it works for us, not against us.
There is no doubt, the media has played a massive role in the violent attacks seen in the last few months. Let's tackle hate crimes at the source - let's change the media.
FAQs
Do you offer refunds?
Yes, absolutely. Get in touch in the first 30 days of your membership or renewal, and we'll give you a full refund. After that, we can offer a refund for any months remaining on your membership.
It's busy out there, we get it. You're covered if your membership renews by accident or you didn't cancel in time. Peace of mind? Check.
What if I don't want one of the perks?
All of our perks are optional. When you sign up, we ask you what perks you want - it's all opt-in. If there is a perk, like a shout-out, you don't want β we won't do it. Just let us know; you're in control.
We understand that not all of us are always in a position to be out, proud and loud. We take your privacy seriously and won't publish your name unless you ask us to. Read more about our approach to privacy.
Is it easy to cancel or change my subscription?
Super easy. Just log into your account to change your plan, cancel your membership, change your payment card - all with just a couple of clicks.
Our promise on QueerAF memberships: No contracts, no nonsense. Cancel anytime; refunds available.
It's in your control, and you don't have to contact us to stop payments. Subscriptions renew automatically, but if one is taken that you weren't prepared for, get in touch.
Do you offer group or organisation rates?
We do indeed. You can read all about it here. We have prices for non-profits, the education sector, brands, organisations and staff networks. Get in touch.
QueerAF for organisations members can also upgrade to get co-branded editions sent to their staff - find out more
What will show up on my bank account?
Our statement descriptor is our initials. It's just enough to keep track of us, but to keep your privacy respected.
Can I donate just once?
Absolutely. If you'd rather donate just once for now, you can do that here.
We get it - subscription overload is a thing and it's tough out there. Recurring revenue is valuable to us as it helps us plan, even if it's small. But we also give a huge welcome to any one-off donations.
I have more questions, can I contact you?
Of course. Hit us up on: soareyou@wearequeeraf.com or use the easy contact form on our FAQ page.
Don't hesitate; we're all about emails.
