Become a Member
Supporting independent record is a shared responsibility.
Discover Montserrat exists to record what matters beyond the moment — people, culture, events, and everyday life that are too often overlooked or lost to short-lived platforms.
There is no paywall here.
Membership is how individuals choose to help sustain the work while keeping it open and accessible to all.
What Membership Means
Membership supports:
- independent reporting and documentation
- cultural and historical preservation
- long-form context beyond headlines
- the maintenance of a public, searchable archive
It allows the work to be careful rather than rushed, and accountable rather than reactive.
Membership is not about perks or access.
It is about participation.
How Membership Works
- Annual or monthly options
- Secure payment via Stripe
- Cancel or change your support at any time
- Choose the currency that works best for you
Membership supports independent work.
It does not purchase influence or editorial control.
