Join or Renew your Membership
Renew your Membership
- Memberships cannot be renewed until the expiration date. Members will receive an email on the expiration date with a link to renew and will have 30 days from then to renew. Another reminder will be sent 15 days after expiration. Access to the website will remain throughout the 30 days.
- After receiving the email, click the renew link and log in.
- In the Members Area, select ‘Subscriptions’ to renew your membership. Click ‘Renew’ in the Actions column. The PayPal page displays; then select ‘Pay with PayPal’ or ‘Pay with Debit or Credit Card’. (Our electronic payment processor is Paypal, but if you do not have a Paypal account and do not want to create one, you will see the option to “Pay with Debit or Credit Card” at the bottom of the Paypal login screen. Click on that option, and you will be able to check out as a guest on Paypal and use your credit card without joining Paypal.)
- If you do not see your plan listed or a “Renew” option, your subscription may have expired. There will be an option on that page to return to this page in that case. Then scroll down and select a new plan.
- If you wish to choose a different subscription plan, please click on “remove” to delete your current plan, then come back to this page and scroll down to select your new plan.
