What are the differences between "Standard" and "Silver" memberships?

Bronze membership level is ideal for students and low-resource users. Please have a look to the above comparison chart. In addition to the many benefits of Club membership, you will be helping to ensure the continued development of the Mandriva Linux distribution. The more successful the Club becomes, the better Mandriva can serve you.

In addition to these, there are some special membership levels:

  • People who invest an exceptional amount of time and energy into voluntarily helping the Mandriva Linux project and other users are entitled to the "VIP" membership
  • Members of the Mandriva Club who do not pay a fee are entitled the "Aluminium" membership for as long as they keep visiting the site regularly. This membership does not offer much in terms of priviledges, but it is still more convenient than being anonymous. Of course, Aluminium members can "upgrade" their membership level any time they want to.

Do I have to pay for a whole year in advance?

No, you can also choose the monthly payment.

Monthly payment - How do I update my bank account information?

For gaining access to your Club invoices, or for updating your bank account information please visit this page and log on using your Club account, consisting in your email address and your password (the one you manage at https://my.mandriva.com).
