Add an organization representative

The organization representative is the person who manages the organization. This is usually the person who pays the membership fees and manages the organization's other members. The representative is simultaneously an organization's representative, member, and administrator.

• Membership type: select Organization
• Members’ membership type: select the membership that will be given to the organization’s members.
• Maximum number of members: if you would like to set a limit to the number of members, enter the number of additional members allowed.
• Membership may be renewed by all members: if this box is checked, a member of the organization may renew and pay for the representative's membership.
• Billing type: depending on your needs, determine if your membership has a floating date or fixed date, is free or has variable pricing, and configure your rates, if necessary.
