*Dear all,*
*
We have been investigating the option of partial online payments made
via credit card and we have some good news to report. We expect that we
will be able to provide this option in our systems later in March for
all members who need it.
I realise this comes quite late in the current payment cycle, but we
hope it will provide a good option for those who still need it. Members
in our service region who are affected by war or natural disasters can
request a payment extension. If these members need the partial payments
option later in the month, requesting a payment extension will help
ensure your membership status remains unaffected. You can apply for an
extension using the form at:
https://www.ripe.net/participate/forms/apply/payment-extension-form/
<https://www.ripe.net/participate/forms/apply/payment-extension-form/>
I’d like to note that when using the partial payments option, the
closing procedure will remain valid, and we ask that you pay as soon as
possible.

We will let you know when the new partial payments facility is available.
