WHAT IS THE LENGTH OF MEMBERSHIP?
CLASSIC and CLASSIC PLUS memberships are for 1 full year from your start date.
For SILVER, GOLD and PLATINUM memberships, our standard Term is 1 year, starting July 1st and ending on June 30th the following year. However, you can start at ANY time throughout the year, and your first Term will begin on your selected start date and end on June 30th. So, for example, if you start in August, the first Term is 11 months (Aug-Jun); if you start in December, the first Term is 7 months (Dec - Jun).
Renewals occur automatically on July 1st unless we have been notified by April 1st prior to the renewal date.
In some instances, we can also offer SHORT TERM silver, gold and platinum memberships from 1-month to 6-month options. SHORT TERM membership only include our core member benefits. Contact a Success Manager for details.
WHAT ARE THE PAYMENT OPTIONS?
There are two payment options: pre-authorised credit card payments and online banking Interac e-transfers.
We understand the financial constraints faced by many of our members, especially when starting a new business. Hence we have a number of payment plans to suit every budget including:
- annual, lump sum payments
- 2-Pay plan (1 payment to start, and 1 payment on the 1st of the following month)
- 3-Pay plan (1 payment to start, 1 payment on the 1st of the following two months)
- 4-Pay plan (1 payment to start, 1 payment on the 1st of the following three months)
- Monthly plan (1 payment to start, and 1 payment on the 1st of each month)
Payment schedules for Short Term memberships may differ.
