 How do the pre-paid packages work?

The RMAFP offers members the ability to purchase pre-paid tickets to our events for each fiscal year. For our members, this provides further discounts besides the member discounts already received.  To purchase, visit www.rmafp.org àonline store under Resources à Prepaid Events, and select one of the pre-paid package options.  Pre-paid packages range from 3 to 9 (i.e. all events) and also vary in the total savings that can be earned.  To see the different packages and pricing, please visit the Member Benefits page (http://www.rmafp.org/Benefits).   Upon purchase, your account will be credited with the total purchased pre-paid tickets.

Once you have purchased the pre-paid package, you can use the pre-paid tickets for any of our events throughout the year.  When you are ready to register for an event, begin the registration process.  Instead of paying, you will see an option that says ‘Pre-paid’ for $0.  Make that selection and then continue through the normal registration process.  You will not be charged for that event. Instead, you will use one of your pre-paid tickets.  Please note, we do not refund unused pre-paid events, and the pre-paid packages are good for an individual fiscal year (June 1 to May 31).  It is your responsibility to purchase the appropriately sized pre-paid package and then use the tickets.

When and how can I do substitutions?

Substitutions are only offered for the Affiliate and Company-level memberships.  If an Affiliate or

To substitute a guest colleague, log into your account at www.rmafp.org and begin registering for the event.  You will have the option to enter your guest colleague’s contact information into the registration form.  Then, when you pay and complete the process, the registration will be in your guest colleague’s name.
