About us
Krisztina Tardos, Founder and CEO
“The Merit Club was born to fill a gap I felt, working for a big corporation. The haven for when daily life got a bit too much.
My work was taking up all of my time, I barely went out and when I did go to events, they were a complete mismatch of my expectations and often a waste of time. I wanted to experience the good side of London but did not know how or who with. What if there were an online portal which could guide me to quality experiences, meaningful events and help me connect with like-minded women without the hefty price tags?
London can be a big, lonely city so in the search of belonging, I created what I missed: the environment of opportunity.
For ladies, just like me, who were looking to find a supportive network of like-minded women to do interesting things with.
Who want to experience luxury for less.
Who want to advance in their lives and careers together.
Because we only live once. Quality is a way of life.”
What is The Merit Club?
The Merit Club is the social and lifestyle members' club for curious, kind and supportive women in London.
Created as an environment of opportunity for busy ladies.

What do our members say?
Are you juggling a career, a social life and personal commitments?
Under pressure to be a super human?
It is how modern society is. Excel at work, keep fit, meet family and friends, discover new places. How do you manage to squeeze in ‘me’ time and keep on top of everything?
What if there was a community that accepts all of this, the pitfalls and craziness of our modern-day lives, and looks the other way?
The Merit Club shifts your day-to-day focus away from these routine stepping stones. It elevates you towards sources of personal discovery and development. Discover new meaningful ways to spend your time outside of work! Your Merit membership is the sparkle to your work week, the pop of colour in your event diary. To nourish your own personal development and curiosity.
Finding interesting events and expanding your network shouldn't simply be about who you work for, and what industry you are in, what career you have, and how much money you may be earning.
