How does it work?

GPC cardholder establishes a payment token through the secure, online portal.
Registration instructions, attached to the payment token confirmation, are distributed by the GPC cardholder to those authorized to attend.
Individuals use the instructions to register and pay once registration opens.
Individuals then share their registration confirmation/invoice with the GPC cardholder for payment.
GPC cardholders pay securely online as the individual confirmations arrive or they can wait until all are registered and pay at one time with one total charge.

Other Notes:

For EXHIBITING COMPANIES AND AGENCIES: If your organization is exhibiting and you will be working in the booth, be sure to select the appropriate option under "Exhibiting" in the registration form so you get the appropriate credentials when you pick up your badge onsite.
In the past, there have been issues with the CITI card accepting the meeting’s vendor code for those registering using their GTCC. To avoid registration issues this year, please contact your credit card manager now to ensure that your card does not have a block on merchant codes classified as Business or Marketing Services before registration opens. As a reminder, the link for hotel reservations is sent only after the meeting registration fee is paid, so proactively addressing this issue will avoid delays in getting access to the hotel reservation link.
If an individual is deemed ineligible for their selected rate, the category and fee will be adjusted. A badge will not be released without payment in full.
Government personnel using the Defense Travel System (DTS) should adjust their per diem in DTS for the meals provided.

Payment

Tokens

Payment Tokens

If your organization requires registration fees to be paid through a Government Purchase Card (GPC), not a Government Travel Card (GTCC), and there are at least 5 individuals attending the MHSRS, we have created Payment Tokens to help make the registration process easier.

Payment Tokens are created by the GPC cardholder when they submit a request online. The token is a unique code, similar to a promotional code, distributed by the GPC cardholder to individuals to register and pay on their own. If a token is not established, all individuals who plan to attend will have to register and pay on their own at the time of registration.

Please note: due to the limited inventory of rooms available at the hose hotel, registration is a prerequisite for getting the hotel reservation link.

Payment

Conference credentials will not be released without payment in full. We accept Mastercard, Visa, and American Express. Charges will appear as “The Bridge Group LLC” on your credit card statement. Click here for a copy of the W-9.
Tokens are pre-authorized and subject to approval. Unauthorized use will result in a balance due or cancellation.

Changes & Refunds

Registrants who are unable to attend may substitute another person. Submit name changes and corrections through the link in the email confirmation/receipt or by clicking on the option to “Update an Existing Registration” on the main registration page.
Payment changes incur a $50 fee, charged to the original form of payment. This applies to credit cards as well as payment tokens.
Refunds due to cancellation incur a $50 processing fee through 25 July. After July 25, there are no refunds. Cancellation fees apply to all registrations, whether paid by credit card or payment token. No exceptions.
Any registrant who doesn’t attend the conference and has not canceled by 25 July will not be refunded. This includes those who paid with a Token.
Individuals are responsible for canceling their own hotel and travel reservations. The Bridge Group, LLC nor USAMMRA will be liable for hotel or travel costs for any reason.
The Bridge Group, LLC and USAMMRA reserve the right to cancel your duplicate or unpaid registrations without notice.
