    1. Annual Plan: This plan allows Members to pay 100% of the cost of their Membership for the following Season on or before the First Payment Date (as set out in the Notice). This payment may be made using Visa, MasterCard, or American Express (each a “Credit Card”), or online bill payment through an eligible financial institution as identified on your membership invoice (“Bill Payment”).
    2. Semi-Annual Plan: This plan allows Members to pay 50% of the cost of their Membership for the following Season on or before the First Payment Date, and to pay the remaining balance on payment date referenced in the Membership invoice/Notice. These payments may be made using a Credit Card or Bill Payment.

If the Member Credit Card on file is declined for a given payment for any reason, MLSE will re-run the Credit Card 24 hours later after the payment was initially declined. If at this point payment has not been made, the barcodes for the Member’s tickets and all other Membership benefits shall be suspended until payment in full is made. MLSE will attempt to notify the Member by email and/or telephone to request that the payment information be updated. If payment has not been made within ten (10) business days of the date payment was missed, MLSE may remove the Member’s tickets their account and terminate their Membership.

Please note that if the Member does not opt-out of the Additional Matches, then Members will be charged for Additional Matches on a match-by-match basis as such matches are confirmed, regardless of the payment plan selected by the Member.

Individuals or entities who purchase a Membership, expressly authorize the initial and continued payment in accordance with their selected payment plan for the current Season and for each subsequent Season, until such time as they choose to change their then current payment plan, opt-out of their Membership, or whose Membership is terminated by MLSE as provided herein.
