What is the difference between the different membership types?
All members can engage in all Association activities.
Organisations can invite a set number of additional persons from the organisation to engage in Association activity on behalf of the organisation. The person who signs up is the lead participant.
Voting is affected by your membership level. Each dollar of membership provides you with 1 voting point - so the higher the membership level, the greater the voting power. For organisation members, the lead participant casts the votes for the organisation.
Can I give more money to the Association?
You can! Additional donations are added to the pool of money to fund development projects. Extra donations do not receive any more voting points than the highest level (10,000).
What happens to my membership fee?
It is used to fund successfully voted development projects. A small proportion is used for necessary Association business (such as taxes, fees and reporting). All of this is reported to Members.
What is GST and do I have to pay it?
GST is Australia's Goods and Services Tax. As the Association is Incorporated in Western Australia, in accordance with Australian law, Australian members must pay GST when paying for memberships. Information is provided on the invoice and receipt. All non-Australian members are exempt from Australian GST.
