{% embed url="<https://youtu.be/8Jvd6WyROW0>" %}

Your **Balance Due** is automatically calculated after your invoice is generated. The balance due will include credit for any credits owed to you (from a previous cycle), debit for anything due to IFC (carry-over from previous cycle, annual member fee when due, and initial membership fee). You have access to all the details on your account by clicking the Transactions button.&#x20;

There are many ways to pay for your items.

* You can pay by Paypal right in in the browser after your order has been picked up. This is a convenient, paperless way to pay that is great for people picking up curbside and at satellite sites.
* You can pay on-site when you pick up your items via cash, check, debit and credit cards, or with your EBT card if you have one. EBT vouchers can also be used to pay at satellite pickup locations.
* If paying by check, please write your member number on the check.
* Please allow for 3-5 days for your balance to reflect payment.
