How Auto-Pay Works for Your Membership: 

Auto‑Pay lets you securely save your payment method (credit card or ACH*) and automatically settle your annual dues without lifting a finger. Once your renewal invoice is generated, we’ll charge you using your saved payment method so you don’t have to worry about missed deadlines.

How to Sign Up

1. During checkout: When you first join or renew online, simply check “Enable Auto‑Pay for Future Renewals.”
2. In Your Member Dashboard: Go to Payments, click Save Payment Method, then toggle on Auto‑Pay.

_{*ACH is now available for convenient, paper-free payments directly from your banking institution.}

What to Expect Each Year

• Invoice Creation: We generate your renewal invoice each spring. 
• Advance Notice: A reminder email arrives 5–7 days before we auto‑charge, so you can update or opt out if needed.
• Secure Charge: On the scheduled date, we process the payment automatically.
• Confirmation: You’ll receive an email confirming your successful renewal.

Managing or Canceling Auto‑Pay

At any time, revisit Member Dashboard → Payments to toggle Auto‑Pay off. If your payment method fails, we’ll notify you and deactivate Auto‑Pay; you can simply update your details and re‑enable it before your next renewal.
