Features & plans
Every feature in Waypoint Realms, what it does, and which membership it needs. A free account gets you further than you might expect.
The subscriptions
Waypoint Realms has three separate things you can pay for. They are not a single ladder: a membership does not include the other two, and neither of the other two requires a membership.
Membership — for players and makers
The Bindery Pass
Coming soonAll-you-can-read access to subscription comics from participating publishers.
It is its own subscription, and deliberately so. What readers actually read decides how the creator royalty pool is divided, and revenue bundled into a membership tier cannot be attributed back to the creators who earned it. No membership includes it; it does not require one.
$5.99 a month when it opens, and you can cancel any time.
Hub
For partnersThe partner track, for businesses that host play — listings, bookings, events, analytics and staff, with a storefront when you want to sell. Billed separately from a membership, and never unlocked by one.
- Hub — $30/mo
- Hub Commerce — $50/mo
Feature matrix
What each membership includes, by area. A dash means the feature is not available on that tier; a number is a cap. Every capability below is described in full further down.

Every feature in detail
The complete catalog — everything Waypoint Realms does, whether it costs anything or not. Each entry says what it needs: Every account means it is free at every tier. The Realms themselves are members-only, because what you make in them is yours, so they sit behind a sign-in.
Community
25 features · 10 need a membership
Finding people to play with, and the places you play.
- Every account
Find and join games
Search for games by game, date and distance, then reserve a seat. Every account, free included, can RSVP to as many sessions as it likes — the only limit is the seats the host set.
Free: Unlimited · Plus: Unlimited · Pro: Unlimited
- Every account, with a cap
Circles you lead
Counted by the circles where you hold the Lead role, including ones someone handed over to you. Stepping down as Lead frees the slot. Downgrading never removes you from a circle you already lead.
Free: 1 · Plus: 2 · Pro: Unlimited
- Every account, with a cap
Members in a circle
The cap follows the circle's current Lead — the highest membership among its Leads, not whoever founded it. A circle over the cap keeps every member it has; it simply stops taking new ones until it is under the cap again or a Lead with a bigger allowance joins its Leads. Nothing is ever deleted or locked.
Free: 25 · Plus: 50 · Pro: Unlimited
- Plus and up
Circle voice rooms
A voice channel any member can walk into, in whichever of the circle's rooms you turn it on for — no invite, no scheduled call. Leads can mute or remove someone mid-call, and voice in a campaign is separate and free to everyone at the table. The entitlement is the circle owner's, so every member of the circle can join whether or not they subscribe.
- Paid tiers
People in a voice room
A cap per room, not per circle — a busy circle can run voice in several rooms at once. Past a dozen people a voice room stops being a conversation, so the number is set where the feature stops working rather than where it stops being affordable.
Free: — · Plus: 6 · Pro: 12
- Paid tiers
Circle voice time
Counted in participant-minutes and shared by the whole circle: six people talking for ten minutes spends sixty. It resets on the first of the month. Pro's allowance covers a weekly club night with room to spare; Plus's suits a small group's occasional call. When it runs out the rooms stay, the calls stop until the month turns over.
Free: — · Plus: 600 · Pro: 2400
- Pro and up
Camera in circle rooms
Switched on per room, so a circle can have somewhere to show faces and somewhere that stays voice-only. Turning it on makes that room 18+ — members under 18 keep every other room in the circle but cannot join this one, which is why it is a room-by-room choice and off until a lead makes it. Cameras always start off when you join; leads can turn someone's camera off mid-call, and it stays off. The entitlement is the circle owner's, as voice is. Screen sharing is a separate switch and does not carry the age limit.
- Plus and up
Screen sharing in circle rooms
For the map, the rules page or the character sheet everyone needs to see at once. Its own switch rather than part of camera, and the difference matters: turning sharing on does NOT make the room 18+, so an all-ages table can share a map without opening a room its younger members cannot enter. Switched on per room and off until a lead turns it on; nobody shares by joining, and a lead can stop a share mid-call. Works on desktop browsers — phone browsers cannot capture a screen.
- Paid tiers
Circle video time
Counted in participant-minutes like voice time, and kept as a separate number because a minute of video costs several times a minute of audio — one shared total would hide the expensive half. When video time runs out the room drops to voice for the rest of the month rather than closing, and it comes back on the first.
Free: — · Plus: — · Pro: 600
- Paid tiers
Circle screen-share time
Counted in participant-minutes, and kept apart from video time so the two never spend each other's — a circle that has used up its camera minutes can still share a map, and the other way round. When sharing time runs out the room carries on with voice for the rest of the month, and it comes back on the first.
Free: — · Plus: 300 · Pro: 600
- Every account
Group channels
Direct messages and group threads for a table, a circle, or a one-off session. Free on every tier — coordinating a game should never be the thing you have to pay for.
- Every account
Advanced search filters
Two filters on top of the basic search: only sessions that still have a seat open, and only sessions for games you own. Free on every account — finding a game you can actually join is not something to charge for.
- Every account
Saved searches
Save a search you run — "Pathfinder", say — and Waypoint Realms checks new sessions against its words for you, so a session that appears on a Tuesday does not depend on you looking that Tuesday. Free on every account.
- Every account
Create a circle
A circle is a persistent group: a member roster, discussion threads, its own events and a scoreboard. Every account can start one — a club is what the product is for, so founding one is never behind a paywall. What a membership changes is how many you lead and how large they grow.
- Every account
Run tournaments
Tournament structure for a circle: seeding, rounds, reported results and live standings. Built for league nights and small competitive events rather than for large organised play. Any circle's Leads and officers can run one, whatever their membership.
- Every account
Your calendar
One calendar across everything you have said yes to — sessions, circle events, convention tickets and venue bookings — with reminders before each. Subscribe to it from your own calendar app if you would rather live there.
- Every account
Events
Anything larger than a single session: conventions, tournaments, launch nights and club meets, with ticketing where the organiser has set it up. Browsing and attending are free.
- Every account
Venues
A directory of places that welcome gaming — game shops, clubs, libraries and rentable rooms — with what they host, when they are open, and whether a table can be booked. Venues are listed by their owners through Hub.
- Every account
Book a GM
Browse game masters who run paid games, see what systems they run and what past players said, and book a session for your group. Free to browse and to book; the GM sets their own rate.
- Every account
Requests
The other direction from searching: say what you want — a system, a schedule, a group that will teach a newcomer — and let hosts and other players answer.
- Every account
Circles
Joining and taking part in a circle costs nothing at any tier: threads, the roster, circle events and the scoreboard are all open to members of that circle. Founding one is free too; a membership changes how many you lead and how large they grow.
- Every account
Feeds
A running feed of posts, session write-ups and activity from the people, circles and topics you follow, with your own posts alongside them.
- Every account
Members directory
Search the people on Waypoint Realms the way you search for games — by what they play, where they are, and how they like to play — and connect with them.
- Every account
Messages
One-to-one messaging alongside the group channels, with read state and notifications. Free at every tier, because arranging a game should never be behind a paywall.
- Every account
Saved items
A single place for everything you have set aside, whatever kind of thing it is, so a venue you liked and a listing you are considering do not live in two different lists.
TTRPG Realm
15 features · 5 need a membership
Running and playing tabletop roleplaying games.
- Plus and up
Campaigns
The campaign page holds everything one ongoing game needs: a shared wiki that fills itself in from your session notes, a tactical battle map with fog of war, initiative and turn tracking, a recap of every session, and an AI Game Master that can run or assist a table. Being a *player* in someone else's campaign is free; this entitlement is for keeping one of your own.
- Paid tiers
Active campaigns
The cap counts campaigns you run as GM. Deleting one frees the slot, and campaigns you have merely joined as a player never count against it.
Free: — · Plus: 2 · Pro: Unlimited
- Every account, with a cap
Character slots
The Character Vault itself is free — building, importing and generating characters costs nothing. The cap is on how many you keep at once, across every game system you play.
Free: 2 · Plus: 10 · Pro: Unlimited
- Every account, with a cap
Print Shop downloads
Every model in the Print Shop is free to download and print at home — the cap is on how many you can pull in one day, which is a scraping limit rather than a paywall. A free account's allowance covers a table's worth of terrain in an evening; a membership raises it for the bulk-print weekend.
Free: 100 · Plus: 300 · Pro: 1000
- Every account, with a cap
Print Shop storage
The total size of the models you have uploaded to the Print Shop. A free account's allowance holds a handful of minis and modular walls; the larger allowances are for the multi-part, high-poly sculpts a serious contributor produces. Removing a model frees its space, and Plus and Pro can add more storage without changing plan.
Free: 100 MB · Plus: 1 GB · Pro: 5 GB
- Every account
Character Vault
Build and store your TTRPG characters — full D&D 5e sheets, with AI portraits and more systems to come.
- Every account
Campaigns
Run a persistent group across many sessions — roster, linked sessions, and a shared home (Pro).
- Every account
NPC Vault
Create, generate, and save NPCs to your personal vault — full sheets keyed to a game system, ready to drop into any campaign.
- Every account
Battle Map
A grid battle map with tokens and fog of war — share it live to the table for in-person or remote play.
- Every account

A quick 3D dice roller for any system — build a pool of up to 10 dice (d2 through d100) and roll.
- Every account

Run combat at the table — add combatants, sort by initiative, track turns, rounds, and HP.
- Every account
Bestiary

Look up D&D 5e SRD spells and magic items — full rules text, filtered by level, school or rarity.
- Every account
Encounter Builder
Gauge a D&D 5e encounter — set your party, add monsters by CR, and see the difficulty against the XP thresholds.
- Every account
Loot Generator
Roll up a treasure pile — gold and a handful of items — by tier.
Board Games Realm
5 features · 3 need a membership
Deciding what to play, and keeping track of what you own.
- Plus and up
Teach time
Table Oracle already uses teach time to fit games into the evening you actually have; this shows you the working. Who at the table knows the game well enough to teach it, how long that will take, and what the evening really costs once you count it.
- Plus and up
Shelf gaps
Computed in the same pass as the shortlist: the games your group's tastes point at that none of you has on a shelf. Useful before a birthday, a convention, or a sale.
- Every account, with a cap
Saved groups
Save the people you game with as a group so a consult takes one click instead of re-entering everyone. A free account keeps a couple, and an unsaved ad-hoc consult with anyone is never limited.
Free: 2 · Plus: Unlimited · Pro: Unlimited
- Every account
Table Oracle
Tap the people coming tonight and get a ranked shortlist from everyone's shelves — with the reason for each pick, and a session you can create from it.
- Every account

Quick access to safety calls, consent tools, and the rules of the systems you play.
Cosplay Realm
15 features · 3 need a membership
Designing, costing and building a costume, then showing it off.
- Plus and up
Live bill of materials
A costed breakdown of what a piece will actually take, computed from the mesh's own volume and surface area against current material prices — per layer, so a foam base with a Worbla plate and printed trim each price separately. It sends straight to your build's component list as costed line items.
- Plus and up
Pattern drafting
Bodice, body and trouser blocks drafted parametrically to your measurement profile, with seam allowance, then tiled across as many sheets of ordinary printer paper as it takes so you can assemble and trace at true scale. Drafting runs in your browser; your measurements are not sent anywhere.
- Plus and up
Costume assembly
Stand several finished pieces on one mannequin built from your measurements and check the clearance between them before you cut anything — the pauldron that fouls the helmet is much cheaper to find here. Assembling and checking is free; keeping the assembly is what this unlocks.
- Every account
Your design library
Designs you model in Piece Forge are saved to your account, reopen fully editable, and re-export whenever you need them. Free on every tier: the whole build loop — measure, model, fit, unfold, export and keep — is the reason to be here, not the thing to charge for.
- Every account
Sell your designs
Put a design on the shelf for other cosplayers, either free or priced with payouts to your own Stripe account. The shop snapshots the design as it is at publish time, so you can keep sculpting your copy without changing what buyers received. Buying is never gated.
- Every account

Plan a costume build — materials, budget, and a task list from first cut to con-ready.
- Every account

Your body's numbers in one place — measure with your camera or a tape, see what each is worth, and keep them for every tool here.
- Every account

- Every account
Piece Forge

Wear your saved pieces together on one body and see what collides before you cut foam.

Watch how-to videos on armor, foam, sewing, wigs, props, and more — curated and community-submitted.
Comics Realm
8 features · 1 needs a membership
Following what you read, and making comics of your own.
- Separate subscription
The Bindery Pass
A separate subscription, not part of any membership: unlimited reading across the publishers who join the programme. What readers actually read decides how the creator royalty pool is divided, which is precisely why it cannot be folded into a membership tier — bundled revenue cannot be attributed back to the creators who earned it.
- Every account
Comics Library
One shelf for the series you own, follow, and read — keep a pull list, log your progress, and see what the community is reading.
- Every account
New Comic Day
Upcoming releases from the series on your pull list, with reminders.

Collab Board
Make your own comic — find a writer or artist, post what you're looking for, and build your team with roles + credits.
- Every account

The shared reference library — public, and free to read without an account.
- Every account
The Atlas
An admin-curated reference library covering game systems, comics universes and anime studios, plus the Academy's how-to guides for people new to a hobby. It is the one part of Waypoint Realms that is public: readable in full without an account, and indexed by search engines.
Store & marketplace
2 features · all included with any account
Buying and selling, both from Waypoint Realms and between members.
- Every account
The Store
Products sold by Waypoint Realms and by partner stores, with orders, receipts and delivery tracking in your account. No membership required to buy.
- Every account
Marketplace
Member-to-member listings for used games, minis and gear, with wants, offers and order tracking. Selling and buying are both open to any account; disputes go through Waypoint Realms.
Your account
6 features · 2 need a membership
Your profile, your handle, and how Waypoint Realms looks to you.
- Plus and up
Change your username
Change the @handle your profile lives at, keeping your history, circles and connections. Old handles are held for a while rather than released immediately, so links do not break the moment you change.
- Pro and up
Profile viewers
A list of members who recently viewed your profile. Viewers can opt out of appearing, and you can turn your own visibility off — it is symmetric by design.
- Every account
Profile customization
The fuller public profile: a banner image, pronouns, languages you play in, preferred role and play style, and links out to wherever else you are. Every field is individually toggleable between public and private.
- Every account
Your public profile
Every account gets a public profile: the systems you play, the circles you belong to, sessions you have run or attended, and reviews. Each section is individually switchable between public and private.
- Every account
Privacy controls
Per-section visibility over everything your profile can show, plus control over whether you appear in search, whether your activity is visible, and who can message you. Free at every tier — privacy is not a paid feature.
- Every account
Appearance
Choose Default or any Realm's look for the pages outside the Realms, light, dark or system mode, text size, high contrast and reduced motion. Every look is free, and accessibility settings are never gated.
This page tracks the product: it is generated from the same entitlement rules the app enforces, so what you read here is what your account will actually do. Features are added over time, and prices will be revisited as the picture fills in — anything already paid for keeps its terms.
