ONLINE DUES PAYMENT

Recently, several members have had difficulty making dues payments online because they have failed to enter (or entered inaccurately) their address or zip code in the payment process. Please be advised that, as a security measure against fraudulent use of credit cards, it is necessary that your address, as entered by you, match what your credit card company thinks is your address. If your street number or name, or your five digit zip code is different from what your card company thinks it is, your transaction will be denied.

Please enter your data carefully and fully when paying online. Doing so makes things easier all the way around for everyone!
