In a process of registration, a member must go through account verification. For maximum security, OPAS uses several alternating verification processes, which may include: A. submission of verified identification documents and/or B. a small, non-collected charge (USD $1.00 to $1.99) to be applied to a submitted payment instrument to validate. Agreement with OPAS’ Terms & Conditions similarly agrees to the proscribed process, at OPAS’ discretion. Upon approval, a member will be given an ID number along with other member information which indicates the establishment of membership.
- OPAS has the authority to terminate membership without notification for any of the following reasons:
