Organization / Group Memberships

Organization memberships are designed for organizations, teams, or departments (for example, a single department within a city or company). Pricing scales based on organizational size and level of engagement. Suggested participation ranges are provided as guidance; organizations are encouraged to select the tier that best fits their goals and capacity.

Why choose an organization membership?

  • Cost savings compared to individual memberships

  • One membership, one invoice — simplified billing and renewals through a single primary contact

  • Built-in flexibility as teams grow or experience staff turnover

  • Ideal for departments, clubs, committees, or cross-functional teams

  • Showcase your organization on the Circular Arizona website

Simplified billing and administration

Organization memberships streamline billing, renewal, and record-keeping by designating a single primary contact. When staff change roles or teams grow, participation is already accounted for — no need to manage multiple invoices, track reimbursements, or recover receipts from former employees.
