Terms Version founding-market-2026-08-10

What The Offer Is

The first 10 eligible pros in each published Founding Market may receive one year of ProByName Solo access beginning when their approved account is activated. There is no cash, gift card, purchase, payment, drawing, contest, or game of chance.

No payment card is required. The free year does not automatically become a paid subscription. At the end of the access period, the pro must affirmatively choose any paid plan then available; otherwise access moves to the then-available free or inactive state.

Who May Participate

An applicant must be at least 18, operate or be authorized to act for an independent service business, actually serve the Founding Market selected on the application, provide accurate information, and be legally permitted to offer each listed service. Applications remain open nationwide even when an applicant does not select a Founding Market.

One offer is available per person and per business under common ownership or control. Employees, contractors administering this offer, and members of the operator's immediate household are not eligible. The offer is void where prohibited.

How Markets And Order Work

A Founding Market is a published U.S. Metropolitan Statistical Area. ProByName publishes up to five of the largest metro areas touching each state using U.S. Census Bureau population estimates. A metro that crosses state lines is one market with one shared pool of 10 places.

A complete application that requests a Founding Market receives the next permanent queue number for that market when submission is committed. The first 10 receive provisional places. Queue number, submission time, and application identifier provide the audit record and are not silently changed. An applicant outside a published market may still apply but is not promised the free year.

Review And Activation

1. Submit a complete application and accurate public-profile information.
2. Pass application and profile review.
3. Activate the private account invitation within seven days after it is issued.

No completed job, scheduled service, customer transaction, review, testimonial, referral, or social post is required. A provisional place is not final approval. If a place holder is ineligible, declines, withdraws, misses the activation deadline, or submits duplicate or fabricated information, the place may be released to the next eligible applicant in the original market queue.

Records And Changes

ProByName records the accepted terms version, market, queue number, provisional place, decision, activation, and access dates. An applicant may request their recorded status by emailing dane@probyname.com.

A denial or released place must have a recorded reason. Material changes apply prospectively and will not remove access already granted under an accepted terms version, except to correct fraud, illegality, or a clear processing error.

No Endorsement Requirement

The free access is not payment for praise or promotion. Receiving it does not require a favorable review, testimonial, social post, referral, recommendation, or permission to use the recipient's name in advertising.

What Replaced It

Version launch-offer-2026-08-15, effective 08-15-2026, offered by PROBYNAME LLC, a Louisiana limited liability company, with an access period of 90 days.

No application had been submitted under any earlier version, so no accepted right was affected by the change. If that had not been true, the earlier right would have continued under its own version rather than being rewritten.

Asking About A Recorded Acceptance

ProByName records which terms version each application accepted, and when. To ask what is recorded for you, email dane@probyname.com.
