# Guest access
Membership comes with something to share: any member can **give a friend
guest access to the co-op**. Guest access is **$5 of AI usage for 60 days** — the friend
gets their own account and spends it in the chat and the API, with a
dashboard showing what's left.
Guest access doesn't come out of your own balance. You can send guest access
once every 30 days, and an address can receive it only once — guest access is
for people new to the co-op.

Guest access is not membership — no Matrix, governance forum, or vote.
## What guests can't do
## When it ends
Guest access is not membership. Guests don't get Matrix, the governance
forum, or any vote in the co-op — the chat, the API, the dashboard, the docs
and the newsletter are the whole of it. On their dashboard, a **Become a member**
button sits where members see the credit-pack option.
When **the $2 is spent or the 60 days are up**, whichever comes first, your
friend gets an email saying so. Access stops; **the account and its data are
kept** — and a guest can end it early with the **Cancel guest access** link
on their dashboard.
## When guest access ends
## Becoming a member
Guest access ends when **the $5 is spent or the 60 days are up**, whichever comes
first, and your friend gets an email saying so. Access stops, but **the
account and its data are kept** — if they become members later, everything
picks up where it left off.
## Cancelling early
A guest can end their own guest access at any time, with the **Cancel guest access**
link on their dashboard. Unspent credit returns to the co-op; the account and
its data are kept.
## From guest to membership
Becoming a member works the same for a guest as for anyone: contribute on
Contribute on
[Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/inference-cooperative/contribute)
and the account converts automatically — same login, same dashboard. Any
unspent guest credit carries over onto the member balance. See
unspent guest credit carries over. See
[Become a member](getting-started.md#1-become-a-member) for how membership
works.
