Membership payments go online

The VinduroWA committee has agreed to take our membership database and payments online. After reviewing several online systems the committee agreed to go with the Motorcycling Australia system Ridernet. The idea behind making the move to an online environment was to simplify the process of making payments, centralise member details, and provide online access to members for digital membership cards.

To help members with this we have updated our Memberships page with some screen shots to guide you through the process – not that you really need it, but just in case …

There is a cost involved with using Ridernet for online member payments, but the committee agreed to absorb these costs into the membership fee so that members will still only pay the agreed fee of $70.00 per year.

Haven’t signed up yet for 2020 – test Ridernet out now and complete your membership ready for an awesome season of riding!
