Payment Methods
All fees must be paid by credit card. NARM no longer accepts cashiers checks, money orders or personal checks.
If you are using Certemy for your application process, you will pay through Certemy.
However, if you are unable to use Certemy, you will receive an invoice by email with a direct link for credit card payment once your application has been received and logged in.
Only applications with paid invoices will be sent forward for review. Application invoices not paid after 30 days will be suspended and the invoice canceled. Reactivation of an application requires an additional fee (see below) and can be requested by contacting the applications department at support@narm.org. You will then receive a new invoice for the original amount plus the reactivation fee.
