Own a part of the economy you support.

One membership. Multiple businesses. Shared possibilities. Connect your everyday spending to business and property ownership through SAMBO.

Your membership. Your future.

More than a customer. An owner.

SAMBO brings members together to participate in businesses and the properties that house them. Businesses are mostly incubated inside Stratum Property Group, with professional management across the Stratum ecosystem.

  • Qualifying ownership participation through disclosed contributions or eligible allocations connected to everyday spending.
  • Pathways to property ownership in Mini Complexes and mixed-use developments.
  • Participation in up to 90% of intended distributable profits, subject to the applicable business structure and terms.
  • Digital tracking of contributions, activity and statements through the Stratum platform.

The 90% model relates to intended eligible distributable profits; it is not a guaranteed return or a promise of a 90% individual ownership stake. Participation, eligibility and distributions are subject to the latest terms and disclosures.
