VOTING MEMBER

The voting member type allows the prospective member to vote at the Annual General Meeting, and apply to become a member of the board of directors at the AGM. Within this category, there are several classes that a voting member can apply for, and have a vote in each class:

• Payment Meter manufacturer
• Vending system manufacturer
• Security module manufacturer
• Key management system manufacturer

Note that for each class that a member would like to vote in, a separate membership applies, so if a member wishes to become a voting member in say, the payment meter manufacturer and vending manufacturer classes, then that member would pay two membership fees annually.

NON-VOTING MEMBER

​​The non-voting membership type allows the member to make use of the STS technology, certify their products, and display the STS logo on certified products. Only one membership is required for as many classes as desired. The non-voting member has no voting rights at the annual general meeting, and may not apply to become a director on the STSA management board.

Applying for Membership

Membership may be applied for on the STS website here.

Once approved, memberships are valid for as long as the member is a paid up member of the STSA. 

Please refer to the membership agreement documents found here for further details.
