Q3 How do I purchase a Member’s account?

 

Shop Account

These accounts are free but are required to make any sort of web-shop purchase. There are two ways to obtain a Shop Account:

  1. Purchase a shop item such as a MASA membership, a resource item or a conference registration. This process will create a Shop Account for you and this can then be used for subsequent purchases.
  2. Open the My Account/Account Details page from the Main Menu

Complete the three required fields including a secure password and click Register. Please use your email address as your Username.

Once you have registered, you can check orders, change personal details etc. on the My Account page.

The first thing to do is to set up your billing address by clicking the Addresses tab on the My Account page.

Click Add and enter the details. Note that the email address does not have to be the same as the one you have used for your account. Whatever you enter as your billing email address will be used by the system to deliver emails about any products you place orders for. So, if someone else is paying the bill, you may use their email rather than you own. The Shipping address must be a physical address to which physical objects such as books, can be sent. It can be the same as your billing address.
