N.B. The Waddell, AZ P.O. box is embedded somewhere in the invoice program. We're working on removing it, but first we have to find out where it is! Your patience is greatly appreciated.

Automatic Payment of Dues Option:

For the past couple of years, CBA  members have an autopay option for dues renewals.  Autopay is the optional, member-elected process that allows your stored credit card to automatically be charged as a payment toward the dues invoice generated in October for the next year.

To set-up autopay:

1. Go to your Member Compass™ and click on "Payment Methods"
2. Click on the gold button, "+ Add New Card"
3. Complete the form

When the dues invoices are generated in October, your card automatically will be charged and you will receive an email notification. If, for some reason, the card transaction fails (usually because the card has expired) you will receive an email notification.

International Membership Accounts

While CBA's new accounting software enables direct email invoicing, a requirement for a five-digit zip code is embedded. The CBA Office regrets the inconvenience and appreciates your patience. The following options have been offered by Intuit (the software company) and CBA members with foreign accounts that have successfully paid their dues via credit card:

• Contact the card issuing bank to determine if there are options for using their international card with U.S. based businesses that require a 5-digit numeric zip code.
• Put a zero (or more) before your postal code to make it a five-digit entry in the zip code field on the form.
• Use the CBA zip code (20064).
