Refund/Cancellation Policy

AAGUS Membership Refund/Cancellation Policy

The American Association of Genitourinary Surgeons (AAGUS) reserves the right to refuse/cancel a membership in the AAGUS.
If AAGUS refuses a new or renewing membership, registrants will be offered a refund.

Credit Card Processing

You may pay for your AAGUS.org membership or product(s) using the following methods:

  • American Express
  • Visa
  • MasterCard
  • Discover
  • Debit cards connected with either Visa or MasterCard

When using a debit card connected with either a Visa or MasterCard, you must have sufficient funds in your account at the time of charge, as we charge for products and services at the time of registration.

Paying by Credit Card?

Using credit cards at AAGUS.org is safe. AAGUS only uses processing solutions that are in compliance with the Payment Cardholder Information Data Security Standard, PCI-DSS, to protect your information. See PCI Security Standards. Credit cards are transferred in an encrypted form using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) 128-bit encryption. Credit card information is then stored at a highly-secured location which meets all Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover standards for security.

Having Difficulty?

If you’re having trouble entering your credit card number or received an email saying we are unable to proceed with your order, please consider the following:

  • Did you select the correct card type from the drop-down menu?
  • Did you enter the card number correctly?
  • Did you select a valid expiration date from the pull-down menu?
  • Did you enter your name as it appears on the card?
  • If you are using a new (or recently reissued) credit card, has it been activated?

Entering a Card Security Code

The Card Security Code (CSC) is a 3-digit or 4-digit number printed on your credit card. The number appears only on the card itself (not on receipts or statements), helping to ensure that anyone placing an order with AAGUS.org has the card in his or her possession and is not using a stolen credit card number.

You can find your CSC in the signature box on the back of Visa, MasterCard, and Discover cards. For American Express cards, the CSC is always located above the account number on the face of the card.

About Credit Card Security

The personal information you enter in your AAGUS.org account — including your billing information — is protected using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. We use this technology to prevent your information from being viewable as it is transmitted over the Internet. The encrypted data goes to a secure site where your information is stored on restricted-access computers at restricted-access sites.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
