For a cancellation or transfer, send an email to info@mnatsa.org. If you have not canceled by March 25, 2026, and do not attend the conference, you will still be billed and will owe the full amount.

Credit Card Payment: Credit card payments are processed through PayPal at the time of registration. Note: often government credit cards have a restriction which must be temporarily lifted by the finance department before you register. Please contact your business manager before registering so your card can be authorized for use with PayPal. Your business manager will then lift this ban for a specified time period. Note: this will only be for a few hours, so you need to coordinate this.

Check Payment: Send a check with your name clearly identified to: MnATSA, P.O. Box 362, Circle Pines, MN, 55014. Personal checks must be received within five days of registration and company/organization checks must be received within thirty days of registration.

Split Payments: If your employer is paying a portion of the registration, you will enter the dollar amount they are paying in the labeled box on the registration site along with the email address of where the invoice should be sent. The registration system will then calculate the portion you owe and you can pay your portion with either PayPal/credit card or check. MnATSA will then invoice your employer for their portion owed.

Invoice Payment: If your employer needs to be invoiced for your entire registration cost, enter the dollar amount in the “Amount to invoice to employer” and enter the email address where the invoice should be sent.
