Auto Renewal FAQs
How do I opt-in to EZPay auto-renewal?
When applying or renewing your membership, the EZPay Auto-Renew opt-in box will be displayed above the billing information section of your invoice. By checking the box, you will be opting into
EZPay auto-renewal for the following year.
Note: ASPET's membership platform does not keep credit card information on file, this lives with our third-party payment processor.
When will my credit card be charged?
Each year you will receive our renewal notifications 30 and 7 days before the expiration of your membership (December 31st). If you have opted into EZPay auto-renewal, your automatic
payment will be processed one week before your membership expires. The payment will automatically post to the renewal invoice referenced in your renewal notifications; this will renew your membership.
When will I be notified if my payment expired?
If your credit card should expire before an auto-renewal payment is made, ASPET staff will notify you for new expiration date. All expired and invalid payment forms will be removed from
the auto-renewal cycle and members will need to re-enroll in EZPay.
Note: Please be sure to notify ASPET’s office if your payment information changes.
How do I cancel EZPay auto-renewal?
If you decide cancel your EZPay auto-renewal, you will need to contact the ASPET office via email at membership@aspet.org or by
phone at 301-634-7060.
My member type will upgrade next year. Can I still sign up for EZPay auto-renewal?
