Please note that we use PayPal for online dues payments. PayPal is a secure and trusted site for online banking and commerce; all credit card information is completely confidential and unknown to us. Please be also aware that there is an added fee for all online payments.
Update Your Member Profile Online. The NYC Chapter maintains its membership database in Groupspaces.com. Chapter members will receive an email message inviting them to update their personal directory information online. Alternatively, chapter members may create a Groupspaces account at https://secure.groupspaces.com/auth/login to update their profile at any time. Once a member's Groupspaces account is created, they will automatically be recognized as a member of www.groupspaces.com/nycago. Please note that one does not need to create an account at groupspaces.com to be a member in good standing of the NYC Chapter; it is completely optional.
