The fee is on average around 30-40 Euros, with a minimum starting from 10 Euros for the cheapest and simplest cannabis clubs, and a maximum of 100 Euros for the most exclusive ones. Many clubs require the payment of the fee in cash and they do not accept cards. The payment of the membership fee gives access to the club at any time, during opening times. The purchase of  cannabis products is excluded and the prices are set based on the members’ fees.

The club rules

The majority are rules of common sense, others refer to cannabis usage and possession and the introduction of other drugs inside the clubs. New members are required to sign an agreement where they accept the rules that have to be followed at all times without exception.

Right of cultivation

Cannabis Clubs in Barcelona are real associations that commit to cultivate and produce Marjuana for their members. The majority of the clubs limit the total amount of grams that can be bought every month, and imposes a daily limit as well. In general, the daily limit is 5 grams and the monthly one is 90. Every member, at the time of their subscription, declares the grams that he will need every month.

Issuing of the pass and bill

After you complete the subscription application and sign the agreement, the staff will add the data of new members in the system and release the personal pass to every new member. In many clubs, this pass can also be used as a credit card. On this type of passes it’s possible to top-up funds and use them to pay for services and products in the club and the bar. However, many clubs don’t use this system and some only accepts cash payments. The pass is necessary not only to access the club but also to move in it. Even if you are a known member it’s not possible to enter and stay in the club without having the pass with you. The pass is the proof of being a member of the club and it’s easy to get.

Tour of the club

We explained how to subscribe to the club, how to sign for the rules and the rights of joining and how to get a pass. The pass is essential to access the club and move in it. The pass usually functions as a prepaid credit card, but it can also be a simple piece of paper. When you are given the pass, the staff will take you and any new members around the club for a tour. The tour is important as they will show you the different areas of the club and the rules of each one of them.

Shopping in the club

Some clubs require a waiting period between the subscription and the moment when you can actually buy products. This period can vary and it can be few days or more than two weeks. The majority of the clubs in Barcelona, fortunately don’t follow this modus operandi thus it’s possible to buy products from the start. In clubs where this rule is applied for particular reasons, sometimes the rule is waived if the member is buying for therapeutic use.
