Joining an association

Finding an association

From the Picstar home page you can explore the associations registered on the platform. Each association has a public page where you can see:

  • Name, logo and cover photo
  • Description and history of the association
  • Number of current members
  • Active contests and leagues
  • Address and contact email

Becoming a member

To be able to enter contests with social scope (reserved for members), you need to be a member of the organizing association.

Currently photographers cannot request membership directly from the platform — it is the association administrator who adds members manually.

To become a member you must:

  1. Go to the association's public page
  2. Check the contact email shown on the page
  3. Send an email to the association stating that you want to become a member
  4. The administrator will add you from the member management panel

Once added, you will receive access as a member and will be able to enter all of the association's social contests and leagues.

If the association charges a membership fee

Some associations have an annual membership fee. In that case, once you are added as a member you will receive a charge via Stripe for the fee amount. Payments renew automatically every year.
