Primary Membership
Primary Membership is designed for resale and thrift store owners or lead decision makers who are actively operating a consumer-facing resale business.
Each store or related group of stores designates one Primary Member to serve as the voting representative.
As voting members, Primaries help shape the direction of the Association while gaining full access to education, resources, events, and member-only tools.
Initial application:
$160 dues + $25 application fee = $185
Recurring annual dues: $160
Associate Membership
Associate Membership is for team members who work alongside a Primary Member and want professional development, connection, and industry knowledge to support their role within the business.
A Primary Member must be active and in good standing before Associate Members can be added.
Associate Membership is non-voting, but it opens the door to learning, engagement, and being part of the larger resale community.
Annual dues are $50 with no application fee.
Provisional Membership
Provisional Membership is a great fit for future store owners who are actively planning to open a resale or thrift store within the next year.
This non-voting membership allows you to start learning, building relationships, and accessing resources before your doors officially open. When your store is open for business, you can be converted to a Primary Membership at no additional cost.
Initial application:
$160 dues + $25 application fee = $185
Recurring annual dues are $160 (you may renew at Provisional for one additional year)
Partner Membership
Partner Membership is designed for vendors, service providers, and solution partners who support the resale and thrift industry.
Partners are more than advertisers. They want to build real relationships with NARTS members, share knowledge, and be part of our community. Partner memberships are non-voting and are reviewed to ensure alignment with the needs and values of NARTS members.
Initial application:
$200 dues + $25 application fee = $225
Recurring annual dues are $200
