Members who are at least 65 years old are eligible for a 50% discount on dues. This discount cannot be combined with any other discount, with the exception of the payment term discounts (currently 10% for 3 months at once or 20% for 12 months at once).

The member must be at least 65 at the time of payment to use the discount.

Fran and Edward are married makers, both age 67, at the $50.00 per month level. They can both make use of the senior citizen discount, paying $25.00 each, but cannot also use the family discount.
