Member Dues

A clear, streamlined structure means less administrative hassle and more value for your entire team.

With a fixed membership fee based on your agency’s size and needs, you will no longer need to manage individual membership levels or pay for extra members. The new pricing tiers are designed to offer maximum value and flexibility—allowing you to invest more in the development of your team. The detailed pricing tiers are included in the graph below. *

*Individual membership for certain groups will still apply with the changes. See pricing details below.
