Frequently asked questions

Can I pay by check or money order?

In general, we prefer not to receive payments by mail, because of the extra administrative work involved. However, we realize that, for various reasons, not everyone can pay by credit card.

If you need to pay by check or money order, you can purchase a one-year subscription for $75.00 in American dollars. (This is the minimum period for payment by mail.) You can mail your check or money order (payable to "The Atlasphere") to us at the following address:

The Atlasphere
P.O. Box 2633
Carson City, NV  89702-2633

Please allow up to two weeks for your payment to be processed before your membership is upgraded. If you have questions, please contact support.
