Effective 01/01/1026, the Federation launched this Member Portal to replace our legacy Payment system.

“RENEWING MEMBERS:  If you have existing paid membership time remaining on the legacy system before expiration, you will automatically receive a prorated refund or a membership time extension after you activate your membership on the new portal.

Autorenewals on the legacy payment system will be cancelled and you will receive a notification from PayPal confirming cancellation.“

“UPGRADING FROM INDIVIDUAL TO HOUSEHOLD:  If you have a student who is already a member and are adding one or more students to your household, then you will be upgrading from an individual membership to a Household membership that covers everyone at your address.

If the individual has existing paid membership time remaining on the legacy payment system before expiration, you will automatically receive a prorated refund or a membership time extension after you activate your Household membership on the new portal.

Autorenewals on the legacy payment system will be cancelled and you will receive a notification from PayPal confirming cancellation.”

“EXPIRED MEMBERS: If your membership has expired and you are reinstating it on the Member Portal, you may incur a reinstatement fee and may need to pay dues for the lapsed time period to avoid a delay in being eligible for your next rank promotion.”
