While you do pay Blue Moon directly for the usage fee, membership with your local apartment association is required to be able to use the lease. This is why you receive a separate invoice from BAAA.
You can see your open invoices in your member compass from the dashboard by clicking "Account History", or to pay your total balance owed, click "Pay Balance". If you are a manager, regional, or account executive with management access, you will be able to see all open invoices for your company or property. If you are currently in one of these positions and need to have management access instated, please reach out to maddison@baaahq.org.
BAAA accepts checks, credit cards, and ACH. For onsite event payments, we accept cash, check, credit card, and Apple Pay.
You can view your receipts on your member compass by clicking "Account History". Or, if you have just paid an invoice, you should receive the receipt via email shortly after payment. If you are still unable to find your receipt, please email maddison@baaahq.org for a copy.
You can find our W9 through your member compass, by clicking the button for "BAAA W9". It is also included in each invoice. If you are unable to access your member compass or do not have a BAAA login, please email maddison@baaahq.org for a copy of our W9.
