Payment details

Annual membership fees are 50 Euros for professional, and 20 Euros for student members (under-/graduate and Ph.D. students). Fees can be conveniently paid online via credit card (preferred). Depending on your location and device, additional payment methods may be available (e.g., Apple Pay). If you would like to pay via PayPal or bank transfer, please choose “offline” in your personal account. You can find ATRs bank details below. Please note: Since ATR is an association according to German law, it is known and named by financial institutions (bank +  PayPal) as Gesellschaft für Jahrringforschung e.V.

For retired colleagues, a fee reduction of 30 Euros is offered (i.e. annual fee of 20 Euros).

Lastly, ATR offers a lifetime membership (unlimited subscription period; non-recurring) for 1.000 Euros. Lifetime membership fees are to be paid via bank transfer or credit card to avoid high processing fees of PayPal.

How can I cancel my membership?

If you wish to cancel your membership, please do so in your personal member area after signing in. You can cancel your membership at the end of the current year, and you will receive a confirmation email once your membership has ended. Your login credentials will remain active, so you can reactivate your membership at any time and continue to enjoy the benefits. If you would like your account information to be permanently deleted, please contact us at this email address: atr.tree.ring@gmail.com

How can I change my password?

You can change your password in the members’ area after you’ve logged in. It’s best to write down your new password right away, because as soon as you click “Save and Continue” below, it will already be changed!
If you’ve forgotten your password, you can request a new one in the login area. Simply enter the email address you used to register. Note that the account will be locked after 10 failed attempts, which will then require either the admin to set a password or the user to submit a new password reset request.
