## History

SELECT was founded by Carlo Cisco who serves as its CEO.[1][2] It was launched in beta in New York in 2013, adding approximately 3,000 members in the first year.[3] SELECT was chosen to participate in Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator in 2015[4] and has since launched in other cities including Washington D.C., Miami, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, California .[5][6]

## Overview

Prospective members apply through a selective application process that accepts only 30-40% of applicants.[7] Once accepted, the SELECT card is linked to a member's existing credit or debit card.[8] Members can then use it to receive discounts at various locations such as select entertainment, hotels, and restaurants. It also provides members a 24/7 concierge service similar to that of the Centurion Card from American Express.[3]

SELECT has a member community wherein members can connect at events such as fashion shows and menu tastings.[7] According to the company, it is an opportunity for members to interact with like-minded professionals.[7] This card has a US$ 300 annual membership fee.
