Membership
What types of membership do you offer?
ChemLinked offers 5 types of memberships: free, basic, standard, corporate and special. The latter four ones are also called premium membership. For more details you can refer to the membership service page of each portal.
What are the main differences among the 5 types of memberships?
Free membership allows you to have limited access only to the unlocked regulatory news, articles, free webinars and E-publication.
Basic membership is ideal for those who seek the latest resources available but whose needs or budgets are limited. It gives you access to all our news, chempedia, regulatory analyses and market insights, and also includes discounts to our advertising service.
Standard membership is individual-based and offers the most available resources (slight differences among each portal), which is more suitable for an individual or one person from a company.
Corporate membership allows users ≤ 20 from one company to enjoy unlimited access to all available resources, which is more suitable for large companies or multinational enterprises who are in need of using ChemLinked by more than one staff.
Special membership is for multi-users more than 20 from one company to enjoy unlimited access to all resources or for bodies, agencies, organizations, associations, chambers of commerce, or any non-profit centers, which have a group of members of their own and will potentially re-circulate our resources to them. The membership price will be evaluated and determined based on the property and the number of the members of the organization.
Is your premium membership available for 4 portals?
ChemLinked 4 portals operate independently. If you’d like free access to resources in multiple portals, then you need to subscribe all refer to different subscription dues and policies.
If I subscribe to your premium membership, how long will it last?
Our premium memberships (basic, standard, corporate and special) period lasts for one year. For example, if you subscribe on April 18, 2017, then the premium membership you subscribe will last to April 18, 2018.
What are affiliate publications?
The affiliate publications include affiliate reports which are mainly provided by internal experts or external partners to cover more comprehensive and in-depth industry insights, and affiliate English Translations of regulations/standards, which require extra charges for all members.
How do I upgrade my account to premium membership?
You may either pay online through PayPal to activate your premium membership automatically, or you may contact us to get an Invoice and ask for an upgrade from our customer service.
Can I pay price gap in order to upgrade to corporate membership from current standard membership?
You may upgrade your membership to Corporate level at latest before one month your standard membership expires, the corporate subscription dues will be estimated and deduct the rest value of your current standard membership from the original corporate quotation. E.g., a food standard subscriber from Apr 1, 2017 decides to upgrade to food corporate from Jul 1, 2017, then the price gap = $4,999-$1799*((12-3)/12) = $3649.75. The new corporate membership will last for one year from Jul 1, 2017.
