Zero Bond rates its New York membership by age, and unlike most clubs in its bracket, it prints the numbers where you can find them. By mid-2026, the club’s proposal includes three categories: members 30 and under pay an initial fee of $750 and $2,750 annually, the regular category aged 30 to 45 pays $1,000 and $3,850 annually, and members over 45 pay $5,000 and $4, annually.
That exposure is the news here. Casa Cruz, Core Club, and most of the city’s private rooms keep their prices behind the inquiry form. Zero Bond publishes a rate card, making it one of the few clubs in New York where you can budget for a membership before you meet a member.
Founded by hospitality entrepreneur Scott Sartiano and opened in 2020 at 0 Bond Street in NoHo, the club became the city’s default answer to secret nights, with membership reportedly including Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran and a guest list that has drawn everyone from actors to the sitting mayor of New York.

What is the cost of a Zero Bond membership, step by step
Zero Bond pricing rewards newcomers. A member who joins 30 years or younger pays an initiation fee of $750 and $2,750 annually, the lowest full membership rate of any comparable club in the city. The standard category, ages 30 to 45, goes up to $1,000 in premiums and $3,850 in annual premiums.
The over-45 category is the exception: an initiation fee of $5,000 and $4,400 per year. That conversion, where the old band paid too much money, was done on purpose. Zero Bond is building its identity in a small space, and its pricing structure is quietly protecting it by making latecomers pay big money to join the first-in, first-out crowd.
Above the published ranks sits the Global Lifetime membership, which is offered by invitation only at no public cost. Read the tiers now until mid-2026, taken from the club’s live application, and expect them to move over time as any club does.
What you get
Membership includes the full club at 0 Bond Street: a restaurant and bar from Sartiano’s BOND Hospitality group, a fitness studio, private event spaces, and a calendar of cultural programs and events for members. Fees also include priority reservations at BOND Hospitality restaurants and preferred rates at our partner hotels, which is where the annual cost starts to pay for itself when you eat and travel on that route.
The brand has grown into the Wynn Las Vegas, but the New York original remains the landmark, and its appeal has always been less about the amenities than the room. Zero Bond sells proximity to a certain downtown crowd, and the price for that proximity is truly modest by New York club standards.
How to enter
The mechanics are simple: apply through the Zero Bond membership portal, submit a form and a recent headshot, and wait for further updates. The unwritten part is very important. A recommendation from a current member is a valid form of entry, and acceptance is at the discretion of the group regardless of age eligibility.
That combination, published values but intuitive access, is what keeps the Zero Bond both accessible on paper and selective in practice. You know exactly what it costs. Whether you are invited to pay is another question.
Who is Zero Bond for?
Zero Bond is best suited for the younger, city-leaning member who wants a private club for dinner and drinks without the six-person barrier, and the under-30 category in particular is one of the most valuable additions to New York club life. It rewards people who will use the restaurant and events, not just a membership card.
It’s a weak match for anyone after a health-forward headquarters or quiet business address; therefore, the Core Club and the uptown set are a better fit.
