For your convenience, your Academy Membership or Gift Membership will renew on an annual basis. Upon the automatic renewal, you will pay twelve equal, easy payments.
There are no additional fees charged to enroll in this payment option.
The price of a membership is the same for memberships paid in full or with an Annual Membership Subscription.
How do I purchase an Academy Membership or Personalized Gift Membership with the Subscription option?
You can sign up for the Annual Membership Subscription plan when you purchase an Academy Membership or Gift Membership. You may also contact us at 415-379-8098.
How do I cancel participation in an Annual Membership Subscription?
Approximately one month before your membership is due to automatically renew, you will receive an email notification to the email address that you provide upon enrollment. We do not currently offer refunds on memberships. However, if you wish to pay the balance of your membership fees and cancel the automatic renewal of your membership, you may do so by contacting the Academy at 800-379-8098 at any time.
Why do you require an initial payment with the Annual Membership Subscription?
When will I be charged?
Members will be charged a low down payment on the day that they enroll. Thereafter, they will be charged on or around the last day of the month.
