Payment Processing
NOAERS is able to accept payments, however at present, sections need to provide their host, or custodial, council’s Authorize.Net payment processor.
Central Location
Our hope is to create a common registration experience. Using NOAERS for section event registration streamlines the registration process.
Unlimited Events
Sections can use NOAERS for all Section registration needs, including conclaves and ACT Conferences.
