How membership pricing works. Every membership runs until 30 September, whenever you buy it — a membership bought today expires on 30 September 2027. Membership for the next year goes on sale each 1 September.

Because a membership bought later in the year has less of the year left to run, the price drops by £2 at the start of each quarter:

• From 1 September — £10.00
• From 1 January — £8.00
• From 1 April — £6.00
• From 1 July — £4.00

Prices exclude the £2 postage charge on memberships that include a physical card. On 1 September the price returns to £10.00 for the new membership year.
