Who is the EtA Central membership for?
Searchers, acquirers, operators, investors, advisors and service providers across APAC.
I haven’t started searching yet, is it too early to join?
Not at all. This is a good place to get insights and knowledge from those who have been there and done that, and to connect with people already working in the space. This network is one of the most valuable you will find in Australia, with a great deal of business getting done between our walls.
Is there a different tier for advisors and service providers?
No. There is a flat membership rate for all member types.
Who creates the content?
Playbooks, masterclasses and office hours are run by our partners and advisors, people we already know and trust to do good work in this space. All content is reviewed in depth and only shared if we know it is valuable to our cohort.
I was in Circle before, can’t I just stay there?
No, unfortunately not. We are closing Circle at the end of December 2026 after a short transition period. We will have our website where we share some articles, and you can still attend our in-person local meet-ups, but the online chat and all the content from Circle moves into the new membership.
Do you have discounts on Forum tickets for members?
Yes. We offer exclusive discounts plus member perks on both of our 2027 Forums.
What does it cost?
$490 for the first year, for the first 200 founding members. $890 a year once the founding cohort is filled. We bill annually only.
Is there a referral benefit for bringing someone into the membership?
Yes. See the referrals area inside the membership for details.
What is your refund policy?
No refunds. You can cancel at any time and you will not be charged on the next renewal.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, cancel whenever you like. You keep access until the end of your current annual term and simply are not charged on renewal.
Can I pause my membership instead of cancelling?
No pausing. Your membership is active until the end of the term, then you cancel or renew.
Who do I contact for billing, access or platform issues?
Email hello@etacentral.com.au and we will sort it out.
