| Primary audience | Not stated by the club. San Vicente publishes no description of who it admits, only that candidates must be nominated by an existing member and are assessed by a membership committee | The club describes its house as "designed for the creative and the curious"; at launch the founders said they were aiming at a younger, creative London audience rather than a traditional Mayfair set |
| Typical member | The club publishes nothing about its membership. Reporting since its 2018 opening has associated it with the Los Angeles entertainment industry; The New York Times described it in February 2019 as Hollywood's new clubhouse. | A deliberately younger membership than the older Mayfair clubs, reflected in a distinct 21-to-29 "Young Patron" band priced well below the standard rate. |

| Application process | There is no open application. A current member submits a nomination through the SV mobile app, the SV website portal or the membership team, and the club then sends an application to the candidate. Applications are reviewed monthly by the membership committee. Non-members cannot tour the club before applying; the club suggests asking a member to bring them as a guest. | Applicants use the club's online portals, joinlondon.thetwentytwo.com or joinnyc.thetwentytwo.com, select a membership band, and pay an annual subscription plus a one-off joining fee. Enquiries can also be made to the membership office. No committee stage, interview or sponsor requirement is published. |
| Selectivity | The club publishes no acceptance rate. It states that applicants who do not hear from the membership committee within six weeks have been waitlisted, asks them not to chase for updates, and advises them to seek additional nominations instead. | Not publicly disclosed |
