What Sponsors Need to Know

A sponsor cannot access a renewal application through the NASBARegistry.org website.  The renewal application process is initiated by the National Registry of CPE Sponsors.  Sponsors must renew their membership annually by the first day of the month of their initial approval date.  For example, if the sponsor's initial approval date was May 17, 2015, then the sponsor must renew its membership by May 1st of each year.

The designated main contact for the organization will receive an email with instructions and the link to the online renewal application 30 days prior to that renewal date.  The email comes from a salesforce.com email extension address (no-reply@salesforce.com) with the subject line “National Registry Annual Renewal Application.”

Submission of the completed renewal application AND the appropriate renewal fees must occur by the first day of the renewal month.

A sponsor can remit payment for the renewal fee by credit card or check by selecting the link to the online renewal application within the email that corresponds to the intended form of payment.  Receipt of the renewal fees by the first day of the renewal month is required in order for the renewal to be considered paid in full regardless of payment by check or credit card.

Sponsors that do not submit their renewal form by the first day of the renewal month will be assessed a late fee penalty of 50% of the renewal fee. On the second day of the renewal month, the designated main and secondary contacts for the organization will receive an email notifying that a late fee is being assessed and will receive a revised invoice indicating the late fee adjustment.  When the late fee is not paid along with the renewal, it will be assessed through a separate invoice.  The late fee may be paid by credit card or check.
