Two revenue streams.
Operators run the trip itself. LINX owns the discovery that starts it — and the memory that ends it. The memory is what feeds the next trip.
Commission on every booking that flows through the network, plus recurring subscriptions from the curators and operators who live on the platform.
LINX takes a flat 10% commission on every trip booked through the network. That 10% is then split three ways.
| Curator tier | LINX | Curator | Traveler credit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 60% | 30% | 10% |
| Pro | 50% | 40% | 10% |
| Elite | 30% | 60% | 10% |
The split shifts toward the curator as they commit to a paid tier. On the $5,000 example: a Free curator earns $1,500, LINX keeps $3,000, the traveler gets $500 in platform credit. The traveler always receives 10% back as credit.
The commission split above is set by the curator's tier. Higher tiers keep more of every booking — that's the recurring revenue.
Subscription pricing is being finalized — magnitudes shown are indicative.
Operators list free and pay 10% only on closed bookings. Software tiers layer recurring revenue on top — and the top tier replaces a whole marketing department.
Enterprise is where the platform is headed: the operator's entire marketing engine — booking channel, back-end intelligence, and memory production in one.

Operators first — LINX creates their memories, which locks in supply and seeds demand. Then the Legends, whose reputation is the verification layer. Reputation replaces advertising.
The keystone operator benefit is a cinematic memory — a film LINX creates from every trip. Like early Airbnb sending photographers to shoot every host, LINX owns the memory layer: memories recruit travelers, operators become the heroes, and supply locks in as the graph compounds.
A small, capped cohort of Hall-of-Fame-tier athletes, explorers, and icons — one set per category. Their reputation is the verification layer; their curated trips are the discovery surface. They earn only when their recommendations convert.
Wealth isn't an abstraction — it's densely clustered in trackable hubs. From Silicon Valley to Palm Beach, Aspen to Fisher Island, the demand and the supply are countable and reachable.

A 10% commission on every trip, and recurring software revenue from the traveler side and the operator side — compounding as the trust graph grows.
