Whats New?!

Referral Bonus!

When you encourage nonmembers to join SCDA, AND they list you as the sponsor on their application form, you can get money off on your next dues payment, up to the cost of membership dues. The new member also gets a referral bonus discount off their first dues payment. 

• Bonuses are available up to the amount of membership dues.
• Dentist members may get $50 off the next dues payment for each referral and the new dentist member gets $25 off. 
• Dental hygienists may get $25 off the next dues payment for each referral and the new hygienist member gets $15 off. 
• You do not get referral bonuses for non-paying membership categories. 
• Hygienist dues are lower, so the referral bonus is also lower.
