Global Somali Association

Join the global Somali network

GSA is more than a membership. It's a growing network that connects our people, businesses and causes across every state we're in and back home. Claim your permanent number: Number IDs are issued in the order you sign up, and yours is locked in the moment your first payment goes through.

Community
A home in the Somali community wherever you live: gatherings, cultural nights, sports and people who know you.
Infrastructure
Somali-owned businesses, vendors and missions, connected and counted, so what we build here lasts for the next generation.
Somalinimo
Our shared identity, language and culture, carried across the diaspora and back home. One people, one network.

Founding fees

$75

GSA Business

A one-time onboarding fee: it secures your spot and founding badge. Your monthly plan starts when the network goes live in your state ($65/month or $650/year).

Founding spots are limited

5,000 members, and 100 vendors and 100 businesses in each of our 5 states. Once they're filled, founding spots close. After that you can still join, without a founding badge.

Your onboarding fee · Minnesota

$75 today

The $75 is your onboarding fee: it secures your spot and your founding badge before they sell out, and covers your onboarding. It isn't for events and it isn't a monthly payment.

Your spot in the network, secured: your permanent GSA number, issued in the order people join
Your founding badge, before founding spots sell out in your state
An onboarding session for businesses: set up your account, check-ins and card payments (in person or online, your choice)
Your GSA card, ready to show and share

Your monthly plan ($65/month) starts on the day GSA goes live in Minnesota (December 6, 2026), and not before; then it's charged on the 1st of each month. We remind you 7, 3 and 1 days before that first charge. You can cancel your onboarding and get your fee back within 3 days of signing up. After that it can't be cancelled or refunded. Monthly and yearly plan payments aren't refunded. If you cancel, you keep full access to the network until the end of the period you paid for; then your access ends.
