Costs
The Good Business Charter remains accessible to organisations of all sizes, thanks to support from our founder, Julian Richer.
Sign-up fee
For organisations accrediting for the first time, there is an initial sign-up fee to cover admin costs. The sign-up fee also includes the first-year accreditation fee. From year two, organisations renewing their accreditation only pay the annual accreditation fee.
Annual accreditation fees
Annual accreditation fees are a flat rate based on the size of the organisation.
Direct referral
If you have been referred by one of our accredited organisations, make sure you select ‘Direct Referral’ when applying and tell us who referred you. We will waive the joining fee for you, only charging you a year’s accreditation fee.
Each year, organisations are required to recommit to the ten components through the Accreditation Centre. If the accreditation lapses, an organisation will need to pay the sign-up fee again to reapply for accreditation.
Payment Terms
GBC-accredited organisation are committed to paying invoices within 30 days.
