As part of a special promotion the RYA is offering all its 'Joining Points' the chance to earn double commission on all RYA memberships recruited during the month of March.

From 1st March and for the duration of the month, all clubs, training centres and marine organisations signed up as RYA Joining Points will receive double the standard commission values of the scheme for every member they sign up:

  • £20 commission for family membership
  • £15 for personal memberships
The scheme provides a quick and easy way for clubs, training centres and marine organisations registered as RYA Joining Points to encourage their customers to join the RYA and experience the many great benefits of membership. As a thank you for spreading the word about RYA membership, Joining Points receive a commission for each Member recommended.

"Double commission month proved extremely popular with our Joining Points last year, introducing 90 new members to the association", commented Conor Swift, RYA Membership Development Manager.

"The beauty of Joining Point is that it's a real win/win for all involved. The Joining Points earn valuable commission to feedback in to their organisation, the new members get to enjoy all the great benefits RYA membership affords them and the RYA sees its membership flourish."

"Every new RYA member adds their voice in support of the work of the RYA ensuring that legislators, regulators and other authorities understand and take account of recreational boating activity. The more members we have, the louder our voice to act on members behalf to protect their freedom to use the water responsibly, with the minimum of restrictions", Conor continued.

If you are already an RYA Joining Point then you don't have to do anything to register for this offer, the double commission will automatically be applied to your account on a quarterly basis. All you need to do is tell your customers about the benefits of RYA membership and get them to sign up; it's that simple.

Existing Joining Points requiring more promotional materials should email with their Joining Point reference number or the name of their club or organisation to receive further membership forms.

If you're not already an RYA Joining Point signing up is completely free and easy to do, simply email to get started.

"Make sure you sign up today and be ready for the start of this extra special promotion", concluded Conor.

March's double commission offer closes at midnight on Thursday 31 March 2016. Double commission will be paid on all applications received by the closing deadline.
