ABOUT MY MEMBERSHIP

How do I visit the museum with my membership?

• For the smoothest entry and check-in process, we highly recommend all members reserve their entry tickets before visiting the Museum. Go to www.MoPOP.org/Visit to reserve your tickets by selecting the day you want to visit and then logging in to your account in the top left corner of the screen.
• Forgot to reserve your tickets? No problem! Go to the ticketing counter and show our ticketing representative your digital membership card or photo ID. They will help check you in so you can enjoy your day at the museum.
• Memberships are available for use immediately after purchase with receipt or photo ID. Please keep in mind that guest passes are not available for use until received via email, which can take up to seven days to be delivered.

I purchased a membership over 7 days ago and have not received anything yet. What do I do?

Please contact us at Membership@MoPOP.org. You will be asked to confirm your email address, and any other important info. Your replacement digital fulfillment items (digital membership card, guest passes) will be emailed within 24 hours.

What is the Plus 1 Pass?

Can my membership be refunded or revoked?

MoPOP Memberships are non-refundable and benefits are non-transferrable under any circumstances. Memberships are revocable.

MoPOP offers digital membership cards for your convenience and to reduce our environmental impact for all levels. Please remember, member benefits are non-transferable. ID may be required when presenting your digital membership card.

How do I use my digital membership card?

Digital cards function just like plastic membership cards. Please present your digital card and photo ID to the Ticketing Desk to check in and enjoy the museum! Keep in mind that we always recommend reserving your member tickets at www.MoPOP.org/Visit.

What if I prefer a plastic membership card?

Your digital membership card is unique to your membership and displays your name, membership level, expiration date, and a barcode for us to scan. Simply show your digital membership card and photo ID to our staff at the Ticketing Counter, MoPOP Shop, or at Culture Kitchen to take advantage of your member benefits!
