Membership Renewal Resources

Your membership has been instrumental in driving our mission forward, enabling us to gather at Conclave in Austin, TX, and offer unparalleled benefits and educational opportunities to the AGS community.

You’ll find everything you need to complete your membership renewal on this page. If you have questions, please contact us at [email protected] or 866.805.6500.

The American Gem Society offers members the option to renew their membership dues automatically each year. This convenience allows you uninterrupted access to all your AGS member benefits.

How does it work?

To enroll, click the button below to complete the form. Once processed, you’ll receive an email confirming your enrollment selections and payment details on file. Enrollment must be completed at least ten (10) days before your current membership expires.


Your next dues renewal will be automatically charged to your payment method on file with our payment processor, BluePay, within ten (10) days following your membership expiration.

Need to update your payment method? Please complete the encrypted payment information update form at ags.org/autorenewupdate at least three (3) business days before the expiration date.

You may cancel Automatic Membership Renewal by completing this form at least 30 business days before your expiration date.

The Advance Renewal period enables you to renew your firm membership prior to your expiration date and make any changes to your current payment plan.

If you choose not to renew your membership during this period, you will be automatically invoiced once your current membership expires. Your membership will be renewed when dues are paid in full or the first payment of an installment plan is paid in full.


If you are enrolled in an installment plan or outside of the Advance Renewal period and are ready to renew today, please contact us at [email protected] or 866.805.6500.

If you do not enroll in Automatic Membership Renewal or renew during the Advance Renewal period, you will be automatically invoiced once your current membership expires. Your membership will be renewed once dues are paid in full or the first payment of an installment plan is paid in full.

Individual Member Dues

Affiliate, Patron, Legacy, Emeritus, and Student Associate members are automatically invoiced once your current membership expires and renewed once dues are paid in full.

If individual membership is not renewed within the 60-day grace period, the individual member may be resigned.

Please find the current Membership Dues Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) here. Understanding these Terms is important because, as a member, you are acknowledging and agreeing to these Terms. If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected] or 866.805.6500.
