Get started in MemberLink

MemberLink is Local 49’s member’s only portal.

Scroll down for step-by-step instructions to create a MemberLink account, and pay dues online.

With MemberLink you can:

• Pay dues online
• Set up auto pay
• View your dispatch preferences
• Update your contact information
• Access members-only information

 

Create an account

NOTE: You must be a member in good standing or a retiree on the death benefit list to create an account.

You will need:

• Registration number (find it on your union membership card — click or tap here for an example).
• Email address.
• Your name exactly as it appears on your membership card.

Instructions:

1. Go to members.local49.org.
2. Click or tap “Sign up now.”
   

3. Fill in your information. (IMPORTANT: You must type your name exactly as it appears on your union membership card. If you go by “Bob,” but your union card says “Robert,” you must type “Robert.”) The MemberLink ID field is unnecessary if you use your registration number, so you can leave it blank.
   

4. Click or tap “Register.”
   

5. Check your email (may take up to five minutes to receive) and click or tap the link to activate your account.
   

   

You’re all set! Now you can explore your Local 49 MemberLink account.
