-# How to Join+# Member Policy
  
-Come visit the space! Get to know some folks, and find a board member. After a couple visits once folks know you better, ask a board member to start the onboarding process.+## Becoming a Member
  
-1. Contact any board member and ask for a dma account invitation. Provide the username you wish to use. +See https://wiki.dma.space/governance/onboarding.
-2. Once the board member sends you an invite link, fill it out and let them know. Also provide the Member fee tier you want your account to be set at. A table of the available tiers is available further below in https://wiki.dma.space/governance/policies/member-policy#member_pricing. +
-3. The board member can then approve your membership. Once they have done so, log in to the https://dma.space website and go to the 'Billing' section on the left. There you can set up your specific contribution and payment details through Stripe. +
-4. This part is important so don't forget! You must visit the space and sign a liability waiver. Without a waiver, we will have to reject your membership! +
-5. Now that you are a member, familiarize yourself with the wiki and the space itself. Find a project that looks interesting and jump in, or bring your own to work on yourself or with others. Have fun, and consider if you can do something to help further our non-profit's mission!+
  
 +## Member Pricing
  
-# Member Policy+dma.space's membership dues are dependent on your income level.
  
-TODO+We do this to ensure that our membership is accessible to people of all income levels while still allowing us to cover our costs, especially with Seattle's thriving tech workforce with higher-than-average incomes.
  
-## Member Pricing+While we strongly encourage members to pay at their appropriate income level, we also understand that not everyone is comfortable with disclosing this. Therefore, we do not require income verification. Instead, we ask that members act in good faith and select the level that best represents their situation.
