Welcome

##  ## Thank you to our global team of Digital Shopping Mall (DSM) Early Birds for helping grow our [Early Founding Members (EFM)](https://dsmpartners.net/founding_members/ "Early Founding Members (EFM) ") to 802 as I share this update. We are just 198 EFMs away from reaching the milestone of 1,000 EFMs. ## After we reach this milestone, the pre-launch price of Digital Shopping Points (DSP) will increase from the current rate of $0.03 to $1 per DSP. ## We also anticipate beginning member verification at any time. This milestone will end the current bonus of 300 DSPs and EFM status available to members who pay $10 in advance to verify their accounts. Instead, there will be a [bonus of only 3 DSPs](https://social.digitalshoppingmall.net/content/perma?id=69956&cd1=4&cd2=4 "bonus of only 3 DSPs ") for those who pay the $10 verification fee, with no EFM status but Founding Membership status. The only way to earn EFM status will be to purchase DSPs worth at least $60.
