Rules of engagement on our WhatsApp Group
A. Membership Subscription Club
We sincerely appreciate your continued support and interest in our exclusive business group and membership subscription club on WhatsApp and Facebook.
​
Since founding the group in 2021, we have worked tirelessly to expand the benefits available to our members, making the Gauteng Business Group a valuable platform for networking, advertising, personal and business empowerment, and business growth.
​
As you may understand, maintaining and growing these services requires significant time and resources. To continue providing high-quality support and opportunities, we have transitioned to a subscription-based membership model.
​
Therefore, existing non-paying members and new applicants joining the group must subscribe as a PLUS member at the entry level—R99 per month.
​

Profit Share
All members of the Gauteng Business Group acknowledge a 2.5% profit-sharing obligation when generating new business sales, contracts, or any transactions that increase their profits through advertising on our platforms (WhatsApp, Facebook, website, or the Online Digital Cars & Bakkies Showroom).
This gratuity fee ("thank you fee") is payable to the Royce Group. Use the same banking details as you use for monthly subscription payments.
​
These gratuity payments help us continue investing time, effort, and money into expanding advertising exposure, business empowerment opportunities, and overall market reach in the Gauteng Province.
​
C. General Rules

All ads and color posts must include a contact telephone number (preferably WhatsApp) and business location (e.g., Lynnwood, Silverton, etc.).
