How to pay for business membership fees with a credit card
Depending on your industry and the size of your business, you may need to or want to be part of an association or industry group.
These could include local business groups, your state Chamber of Commerce and Industry or the Small Business Association of Australia.
Many individual industries also have their own industry associations and groups.
Some well-known examples include state real estate institutes, the Australian Retailers Association, Master Builders Association, Australian Hotels Association, Australian Medical Association and Australian Dental Association.
Having your business be a part of groups like these might help advance your business or make your life running a business a lot easier.
But these groups often attract annual membership fees and, depending on the size of your business, these can add up.
However, with pay.com.au you can pay for all your business membership fees using a points-earning credit card to help you reap even more rewards from signing up.
Even if the business group does not accept credit card payments or only accepts select cards, we can make sure you still earn maximum frequent flyer points on all your membership fees.
With low fees and a simple and easy-to-use interface, pay.com.au can help you do business better.
