For People & Families

You belong here.

A community where your commitment builds real financial strength — no matter where you’re starting from.

You’ve been doing the work, or you’re ready to start. Either way, you already know that the places you put your money aren’t working very hard for you.

CoSpark is a community where your commitment actually builds something. You participate on your terms. And the value your participation creates comes back to you — through Boost Payments, through lending you can qualify for, through ownership you build alongside people doing the same thing.

Wherever you are financially, this is a place where showing up and staying consistent leads somewhere.

The Foundation

The Member Reserve Program. Where it all begins.

The effective annual value of Member Reserve Program participation? Approximately 16–17% when you account for the time value of money. That’s the published math — and we want you to check it. Figures shown, including the Boost formula (contribution ÷ 3.25) and the 5% Redemption Premium, reflect CoSpark’s current program terms and are subject to change. The Member Reserve Program records every dollar you contribute as Points. The dollars you contributed can be redeemed on request after 60 full months, plus the 5% Redemption Premium under current program terms, and your participation generates Boost Payments along the way.

Every dollar you contribute is tracked as Points. Each contribution triggers a Boost Payment. Boost Payments are paid from CoSpark’s corporate revenue. That Boost Payment is sent to your Virtual Card — a prepaid Visa you can use today. Groceries. Gas. The electric bill.

You contribute on your own terms: as little as $10 at a time, as often as you’d like. There’s no fixed monthly amount and no required schedule. Some people contribute every week. Some once a month. Some when they can. The pace is yours.

After 60 full months, you can request to redeem your full reserve plus a 5% Redemption Premium under current program terms. When you factor in the Boost Payments you’ve been receiving along the way and account for the time value of money, the effective annual value of your participation works out to approximately 16–17%. That number is real. The calculation is published. And we’d love for you to sit down at a Center and walk through it.

That’s a real commitment — five years. If you need to exit before 60 months, you can request early redemption. Under current program terms, you receive your contributions net of the Boost Payments you have already received, and the Redemption Premium does not apply. Nobody’s trapped.

Step 1

You contribute.

On your terms. Your pace. Your amount.

Step 2

You earn a Boost — now.

Each contribution triggers a Boost Payment of approximately 30% of what you put in, funded from corporate revenue, delivered to your Boost Card. Figures shown, including the Boost formula (contribution ÷ 3.25) and the 5% Redemption Premium, reflect CoSpark's current program terms and are subject to change. Real money you can use today while your Points balance keeps building.

Step 3

Redeem your Points + the Redemption Premium.

After 60 full months, you can request to redeem your Points for dollars, plus a 5% Redemption Premium under current program terms. Your Boost Payments along the way were yours to keep. And from here, the doors open to lending, ownership, and your next cycle. Contribute consistently over time and the effective annual value of your participation works out to approximately 16–17%. We publish the math. Come see for yourself.

And then the doors open.

The Member Reserve Program isn’t the whole story. It’s the starting line. Your Points and participation history are what qualify you for the rest of what CoSpark offers — lending designed for people who’ve demonstrated commitment, Acquisition Circles where small groups build toward ownership, Big Circle Auctions where you can access real assets at transparent prices, a Death Benefit Exchange that lets you unlock present-day value from a whole-life insurance policy, Initiatives that pool participation toward goals none of us could reach alone, a member marketplace where everyday spending strengthens your position.

Your involvement in those other pathways — the marketplace, Initiatives, Centers — also builds Points back into your reserve. The whole system connects.

After 60 full months, Members with an established participation history may qualify for a strategic loan from CoSpark, using their Points as collateral, on terms set at the time of the loan. The foundation doesn’t reset. It stacks.

Where Participation Takes You

CoSpark Pathways

The Member Reserve Program is where you start. From there, CoSpark Pathways open up to you — lending, ownership, community commerce, and more.

Lending Pathways

Your history here opens doors out there.

Nine pathways. Three layers. From your personal reserve to shared ownership, from lending to education, from local commerce to structured auctions — the platform connects everything so participation has somewhere real to go.

Acquisition Circles

Own something real. Build toward it together.

A small group of members. A shared ownership goal. Everyone participates consistently. CoSpark provides the infrastructure to evaluate, structure, and close. Asset ownership, built alongside people you trust.

Initiatives

Your reserve keeps building. The reach goes further.

Member-driven projects pooling participation toward a clear goal: a family building toward college, a neighborhood funding a community need, a group supporting someone through a hard season. Your Points balance keeps building. Your participation earns Points back into your reserve.

Guidance That Goes Where You Go

More than financial advice. A real person in your corner.

CoSpark offers workshops and programs on budgeting, the Member Reserve Program, and how the broader system works. That’s table stakes.

The part that surprises people is the coaching. Someone sits with you and asks, “What are you actually trying to build?”. Not just financially. You might be thinking about starting a side business and need someone to help you think through the first three moves. You might be navigating a career shift with financial implications you can’t fully see yet. The conversation goes wherever you need it to go.

The people doing this work are practitioners and mentors at local Centers and online. They’ve built businesses, navigated hard seasons, figured things out when the path wasn’t clear. It’s a relationship, not a curriculum.

From the Community

“We stopped treading water.”

Maria teaches third grade. David runs a small landscaping business. They showed up at the Colorado Springs Center on a Saturday morning because someone at David’s church mentioned it. They weren’t in crisis — just stuck. Doing the right things and still feeling like they were running to stay in place.

They started with the Member Reserve Program. A contribution they could handle. Within a few months, the Boost Payments were piling up on their Virtual Cards. David used his for work boots. Maria covered a week of groceries. Their Points balance kept growing.

Sixty months in, David’s participation history qualified him for equipment financing on terms his bank had never come close to offering. He bought a second service van and hired his first part-time crew member that spring. Maria signed up for coaching and started building a tutoring idea she’d had for years.

They didn’t need a windfall. They needed a system that recognized what they were already willing to do.

Common Questions

Is this too good to be true?

The Boost Payment comes from CoSpark-generated revenue. The mechanics are published and the math is straightforward. Contact us and we’ll walk through it with you.

What if I need to leave early?

If you need to exit before 60 months, you can request early redemption. Under current program terms, you receive your contributions net of the Boost Payments you have already received, and the Redemption Premium does not apply.

Is CoSpark a bank?

No. CoSpark is a member-driven community operated by The Community Corp. Not a bank, credit union, or investment vehicle. Programs, terms, and availability are described in the General Member Agreement .

Do I need good credit?

No. The Member Reserve Program is open to anyone ready to participate. Your credit history isn’t a factor. Your CoSpark history is.

Wherever you are right now is the right place to start. CoSpark was designed to make your commitment count — whatever that commitment looks like today.
