How membership payments work when you first join NZPPA
When you join NZPPA, you pay a one-off joining fee and receive membership benefits for the remainder of that calendar year (January to December) at no additional cost.
From the following year, annual membership subscriptions become payable in June (for Jun to Jun – the following year). This payment *(that is less than the initial joining fee) is to maintain your membership so you can access NZPPA services, resources, and member benefits. Every year, we also offer a discount if your annual membership subscription fee is paid early (invoiced in May for June, with a 10% discount if paid in May).
Please refer to the NZPPA Membership Types page to learn more about the available membership types.
Resigning from NZPPA
Membership remains active until you formally resign in writing or by email.
Annual membership fees are invoiced on 1 June each year. If you resign, the annual fee remains payable in full and will be prorated from 1 June for each full month (part months are not prorated).
NZPPA does not refund membership fees, including the initial joining fee or the annual subscription fee.
