Additional individuals from a member company may join IMA for a reduced rate as an Affiliate Member. See the chart below for details.

More About IMA Membership

Membership is open to providers of incentive and recognition merchandise and services. We review all IMA registration applications for membership and reserve the right to deny membership to those companies/individuals not meeting the criteria for Incentive Marketing Association membership.

IMA membership has annual dues, meaning your membership expires on 12/31 each year. Dues may be deductible as membership in a professional association on your income tax forms. Consult your tax advisor for more information. To receive member rates for an event, you must first become a member and then register for the event(s). These will be two separate transactions.
