Online payment for memberships

Dear Region Secretary,

Please see message from Ian below regarding membership payments.

The ability to be able to pay membership payments (subscriptions) online is now live on our online ordering system. We had to add another layer (password) because the system provides personal information to club secs when they log on. Names, addresses etc. The danger was that someone other than a club sec could access this data by knowing the club number and email. Hence the password . This password will also be required for secretaries ordering rings. Individuals don't need a password as when they login it doesn't provide personal data.

Secretaries requiring passwords should email passwords@rpra.org

As and when more information becomes available on the processes involved, we will update you again. Regards, Karen James - Royal Pigeon Racing Association

ONLINE ORDERING SYSTEM - 16 February 2022

RPRA members and affiliated organisations are able to pay membership subscriptions and order rings through our online ordering system.

Click on the image on the right to begin. As with the automated transfer system, individual members will need to enter their own RPRA loft number and the e-mail address that we have recorded for them in our membership database.

Club Secretaries may also log in to the system and pay subscriptions etc for their club, but for security reasons will need a password in addition to their club number and e-mail address. (This password is the same as that you use to access the RPRA results program.) If your club is not already registered, you can obtain a password by e-mailing passwords@rpra.org – please note that it may take up to 72 hours to receive a reply.

To pay subscriptions as a Club Secretary: once signed in you will need to select the black ‘Subscriptions’ button at top right of the screen. Then from the drop-down box select each loft for which you want to pay subs, followed by clicking on the ‘Select’ button. You will need to follow this process for each loft/member. Once you have selected all of the relevant lofts and clarified in the tick box if you are paying the club fee, click the green ‘Checkout’ button and follow the payment process. You will receive an automated e-mail confirming payment.

If you think that we may not have your e-mail address in our database, please send a message to details@rpra.org – remember to include your RPRA loft number, name and address. You will receive an automated reply, and we will update your details as soon as we can. It may take up to 72 hours for the update to take effect.

You can still order rings through the post with a form and cheque, of course: click on the appropriate image below to download the form, and complete and send it to RPRA HQ with the appropriate payment.
