Understanding TIP's Participation Dues
All TIP Participant Organizations pay annual dues to receive access to our collaborative Project Groups and documentation.
Throughout 2024, we are transitioning our active Participant base to a calendar renewal model.
Beginning in 2025, all Organizations will renew on January 1, and will continue to renew on that same date for subsequent annual
renewals.
New Organizations Joining after the January Renewal Cycle
If you are a new Organization signing up for TIP, we will prorate your invoice! For your initial participation year, your participation
dues will be calculated to account for the months your organization will be active in TIP, and provide a credit for any months you
missed.
Once you are an active Organization within the TIP community, you will be invoiced for the full year's renewal dues on January 1 of
each calendar year.
We created a proration table to help new Organizations calculate their expected membership dues for their initial participation
year. Click below to access the table, as well as our Participant FAQs. If you have any questions, please contact our Participation
team.
