I don't think they'll be charging for clubhouses in general, but rather for certain clubhouses. Straight from Sony's press release:
Over time new premium Clubhouse designs will become available, as will other tools and services to support and personalize your club. Please note that we are currently testing this feature, and clubs created in Closed Beta will be deleted when Open Beta starts. More information on this to follow soon.
