We have a progressive structure for membership fees, based on individual annual income*. Note that this page is only used to apply for free individual membership for those with individual income under $30,000 a year.
If your income is above this you must use the individual membership page instead, unless you are unable to pay by credit or debit card and require an invoice for direct bank transfer. In this case, complete the form below and email info@healthcoalition.org.nz for generation of an invoice, noting your annual income and any donation amount. Your membership application will not be complete until payment is received. We prefer members applying and donating online on the form below wherever possible to reduce administration and accounting.

| $30,000 to $50,000 | $30 |
| $50,000 to $75,000 | $50 |

Membership fees/applications are due on in April each year and run to the 31st of March. As we have kept membership fees as accessible and low as possible, we appreciate members also contributing a voluntary donation online upon joining or renewing their membership, to protect our independent voice for public health.
If you wish to donate with your free membership but are unable to pay online and require an invoice for direct bank transfer, please complete the free membership application form below and email info@healthcoalition.org.nz for generation of an invoice, noting your annual income and any donation amount.
