Program membership is available to financial services professionals in public practice who provide accounting, tax preparation, bookkeeping or information technology services to multiple clients on a fee-paying basis.

To join the QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program, you must be a financial services professional in public practice with more than 1 paying client... and you must provide at least one of the following to those clients:

• Accounting services
• Tax preparation services
• Bookkeeping services
• Information technology services

Applying for the QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program
Becoming a ProAdvisor is as simple as buying a membership. After you apply, Intuit will contact you to request that you provide us with verification of your professional status. This can be as simple as faxing or emailing us a copy of your letterhead or business card.

The annual fee for the ProAdvisor program covers membership for one registered individual.

QuickBooks software itself is subject to QuickBooks Software License Agreement and requires one software license for each user within your practice. Software licenses included in the ProAdvisor membership can only be used for partners or employees of your practice. If your company or firm has multiple offices, you will require a membership for each location.

Also, certification in the Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor program extends only to individuals who successfully complete the exam.

Depending on your membership plan, your program membership begins when you enroll in the program and pay your first membership fees (whether you pay by monthly subscription or annual subscription). Your membership will be effective for 365 days from that date.

To make membership renewal easier for ProAdvisors, we've added the option of auto renewal. Here's a breakdown of the 2 payment options:

• Monthly subscription: The total cost for the monthly membership is the same as the annual auto-renewal membership; you will be billed monthly for 1/12th of the total cost. After a year, your membership will be renewed, and you'll continue to be billed automatically.
  
  
• Annual subscription: With this membership, you'll pay for one year of the ProAdvisor program upfront. After a year, your membership will be renewed and you'll be billed automatically - never worry again that your membership may be expiring soon.

If you wish to switch your membership option or cancel your membership at any time, call 1-877-823-3346 to make arrangements with a service representative.

If you wish to renew your membership, just call 1-877-823-3346 to purchase your monthly or annual subscription.

Certification is an alternative for ProAdvisors who are looking for advanced training and the opportunity to distinguish themselves as QuickBooks experts.
