🚨Important update for MSAE Sponsors
We’re updating how MSAE handles sponsorship renewals to give our sponsors greater predictability and easier account management. Beginning this year, sponsorships for the upcoming year will renew automatically as subscriptions on October 1 of the prior year. On or around October 1 you’ll receive renewal notices for each sponsorship, and you’ll be able to manage (pay or cancel) those subscriptions in your Member Compass on msae.org.
What’s changing
-
Automatic subscription renewals: Each sponsorship will be processed as a subscription and scheduled to renew on October 1 for the following year.
-
Renewal notices: Sponsors will receive renewal notices on or around October 1 for each sponsorship they hold.
-
Self-service management: You can view, pay, update payment details, or cancel any sponsorship subscription in your Member Compass at msae.org.
Why we’re making this change
Moving sponsorships to an automatic subscription model helps sponsors and MSAE plan more effectively. It provides:
-
Predictable billing and cash-flow planning for your organization
-
A simpler renewal process so you spend less time on administrative tasks
-
Better alignment between sponsorship strategy and budgeting cycles
What you need to know
-
No action is required if you want your sponsorships to continue as they are—subscriptions will renew automatically.
-
If you prefer not to renew a sponsorship, you can cancel it at any time in Member Compass before the renewal processes. We appreciate having as much advance notice as possible for sponsorships that you don't plan to renew.
-
Renewal notices arriving around October 1 will contain details of each sponsorship and links to manage the subscription in Member Compass.

-
