Auto-Renewal and Refund Policy

NNBA members will have auto-renewal of their annual membership so they retain their initial membership rate and that their membership will not be interrupted. We will attempt to continue your membership annually without interruption unless you tell us otherwise. At the end of your initial term (12 months) and every year thereafter on your membership anniversary date, we will attempt to charge your credit card our Merchant Processor has on file. This will protect the original membership rate that was in effect at the time you initially joined.  Should you opt-out of our auto-renewal feature, or if our auto-renewal process fails to renew your membership, your membership will expire. If you then renew your membership, the current annual membership rate will prevail, which may be more. Opting out of NNBA’s auto-renewal may be done within your My Account Dashboard, or you may send an email.  As of 2/17/2020, our Merchant Processor (Stripe) updated their refund fees policy. When any refund is performed, Stripe no longer returns the processing fee from the original charge. Due to this, as of 4/1/2020, whenever we refund a Customer for a membership transaction, the refund will be less the amount that NNBA was charged during the initial transaction (currently $5.20).
