The Factory London has launched The Black Card, a lifetime creator membership offering unlimited studio access.
It includes first-priority booking and full use of all podcast, video and content production spaces for a single one-off investment.
Only ten Black Cards will be issued, with the studio describing it as the most exclusive creator membership in the UK and confirming that it grants permanent access to all facilities without renewals, monthly fees or expiry, lasting for the operational lifetime of the business.
The Factory London says creators, agencies and brands routinely spend thousands of pounds each year on bookings, staffing, sets and production facilities, while the Black Card covers all of these costs in perpetuity, offering what it calls a long-term creative base designed for high-usage members.
Founder Stuart Bluman said: “Most creators and brands spend five-figures every year just to keep their content engine running.
“The Black Card eliminates all of those annual costs completely. It gives people lifetime access, total certainty, and a creative home that never expires.”
The membership is aimed at weekly or high-frequency podcasters, brands producing ongoing social and video content, creative agencies, founders and entrepreneurs who need guaranteed access without unpredictable budgets, providing priority and stability for organisations that rely heavily on regular production.
The Factory London says the Black Card addresses key challenges in the capital’s creator economy, including availability issues, peak-time restrictions, rising prices, budget unpredictability and limited booking priority, describing the model as a solution to an increasingly pressured studio landscape.
“The Black Card model is our solution to a broken system,” Bluman added. “Instead of charging per hour forever, we’re giving people a permanent key. It’s stability, priority and long-term protection against rising prices.”
The Factory London Black Card is available now. Applications are selective and reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
