Splitcoaststampers is a web-based community for paper crafters. Rubber stamping and card making is our first love but you’ll find scrapbookers here too.
Online since 2003, our mission in life is to be the only place you’ll ever need for stamping-related resources and inspiration.
How did Splitcoaststampers start?
Splitcoast the site was started in late 2002 by Daven (that’s me) and Tracy Nolta. Tracy was looking for a better way to support her group of Stampin’ Up! sales consultants. She had chosen ‘Split Coast Stampers’ as her SU! group name, representing her family of demonstrators around the country, so we named our site Splitcoaststampers. You can read more about our beginnings in this article.
What is the Fan Club? The Splitcoast Fan Club is our paid subscription program. We provide some great extra benefits to Fan Club members, including access to special monthly galleries created by the twelve members of the Splitcoaststampers Design Team, dubbed the Splitcoast Dirty Dozen.
How does it work? Each month, members of the Dirty Dozen are given a design challenge. The best of their creations are added to a special gallery that Fan Club members can visit for ideas and inspiration. We announce and open the new gallery on the 15th of each month.
What about the galleries from past months? As a Fan Club member you have access to every gallery back to July, 2004 when we first launched the Fan Club.
What other benefits are there? Fan Club members get instant (no approval required) upload privileges in the gallery, and access to a special forum containing templates and instructions for design team projects.
Will I need another password or something? No extra passwords or anything complicated. Once you’ve joined, the Dirty Dozen gallery will show up alongside all the other gallery categories. You’ll be able to check out the new additions each month, leave your comments, ask questions, etc. just like any other gallery.
How do I join? Fan Club subscriptions are $24.95 (USD) per year or $14.95 for 6 months. You’ll receive a receipt and welcome note via e-mail and your membership will activate immediately. Please note: if paying via e-check your subscription will not activate until your payment clears.
Where’s the money go? Fan Club subscriptions (along with advertising) are the primary revenue source for Splitcoaststampers. When we launched the Fan Club in July of 2004 we were still small and had very little overhead. Our expenses today are much higher and fall almost completely into one of two categories - people and technology. The people who work here are tremendous, really! You can meet them on our Team page. Servers and bandwidth are another significant expense - our combined operations require multiple servers and over a terabyte of bandwidth each month.
Is PayPal “safe”? Services like PayPal take extraordinary precautions to assure that transactions are conducted securely. If you’ve ever given out a credit card number over the phone or given your card to a server at a restaurant, you’ve already taken more risk than you do when conducting transactions online.
Do I need a PayPal account? Will I be required to sign up for one? No, you don’t need a PayPal account to join the Fan Club and you won’t be required to create one. Any credit/debit/charge card will do, you can also pay via e-check.
Can I give a gift subscription? Yes! if you’d like to donate a gift subscription, here’s what to do. It’s a little involved, but not too bad.
1. If using paypal, use the ‘Send Money’ feature to send the payment of $24.95 to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) (*don’t* go through the regular Fan Club subscription process - your subscription would get credited to you instead of the person you’d like to gift).
2. Send an e-mail to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) and give us some information.
- who the gift is for (name and username)
- whether you want the gift to be anonymous or not
- a personal message to the recipient (if desired)
We’ll take it from there and send your recipient a gift message with your personal message included.
Is there an alternative to PayPal? Sure. Send your payment (along with your Splitcoast username) to:
