Paying Membership Dues Online
We use PayPal to process all member dues, an online payment method that is safe and secure. The annual dues for members are a 20$, you can donate more if you would like by using the Make A Donation page; however, the amount you donate does not affect your status on the site. To join (New Member) or renew your membership follow the appropriate steps listed below.
New Members
Step 1: Required Information
Email Address:
The only field you can enter before going to PayPal for the payment part, is your email address. You MUST enter an email address or we have no way of contacting you to finalize your account. It will also be used to remind you of your renewal date and for automated Forum notices of messages. Have your email address ready when you click on the Pay button below.
Step 2: Pay your Member Dues
You pay your dues by select the payment type of New Member, entering your email address in the space provided and then clicking on Member Payment button below. When you click the button you will redirected to a PayPal page where you make the actual payment. Once you have completed the payment continue to Step 3 (after the Pay button) which explains the remainder of the new membership process.
Renewing Your Membership
Step 1: Pay Your Member Dues
Dues are to be paid annually based on the date you were given access to the site and not the date the payment was made. This date will not change unless you allow your membership to lapse for a period of time. You should have received a notification from membership to remind you of the date your dues are due 30 days prior to your renewal date. If you did not receive this email contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. . The only piece of information we need when you renew your membership is your email address. Make sure to use the email address as listed in your profile, we need this to know who to attribute the dues to.
You have a 30 day grace period after your anniversary date to pay your dues. If you do not renew your membership within this time you will receive another email from Membership informing you that your access has been temporarily suspending. You can renew your membership any time, there is no additional charge for late payments as your membership will simply be reactivated. Note that your anniversary date will be changed to the date you receive notice of your account being reactivated.
You will receive an email back from us confirming that your dues have been received, If you allowed your membership to lapse for a time your new anniversary date will be the date this email was sent to you, otherwise this date will remain as it was.
Membership Payment Selection
Note: You will be returned to the Twin Powers Home Page once you have completed the payment.

Step 3: Selecting Your Username and Name
It takes 2-4 days for the payment to be received and processed. When it has been received we will use the email address you provided in Step 2 to contact you regarding your selection of UserName and Name. The email will provide the guidelines and explanation for two fields that you will then send back to us so we can complete the activation of your member account.
Step 4: Account Activation and Access
Your account will be activated when we receive your reply from the previous step. This may take a couple of days; however, your anniversary date for membership dues will be set to the date the account is activated, not the date you emailed us. You will receive confirmation of your Username and Name as well as a password. Be sure to change your password when you logiin by going to your Profile in the Forum and enjoy the site!
