Frequently Asked Questions
GENERAL QUESTIONS
1. How can I become a member of the Chamber of Commerce of the Palm Beaches?
If you are interested in joining the Chamber, please fill out the “Become a Member” form and a staff member will contact you.
2. I have recently joined the Chamber and would like to get more involved. What opportunities do you have?

3. We have recently moved locations and hired three new staff members. How can I change our contact information and add additional contacts?
In order to change company information, including addresses, phone numbers, individuals, etc., the Main Contact on your business’ account with the Chamber will need to login to the “Members Only” login section of our website and edit the information there. If you are having trouble, you may also download our Change Request Form by clicking here and fax it to (561) 833-5582.
4. Can I pay my membership dues online?
Because each company is unique, and different industries can fall under different price schedules, we cannot allow for online payment of dues. We do take Visa, American Express, and Mastercard, along with Company checks for your convenience.
5. I would like to send out an Email / Mailing to your membership. Can you send me a database of your Chamber Members?
Unfortunately, for many reasons, including security issues and our constantly changing membership, we do not provide a database of our membership. You may, however, purchase mailing labels from the Chamber which do contain the names and addresses of all of our member businesses.
EVENTS QUESTIONS
6. How do I use my member money on-line?
Our on-line system doesn’t acknowledge free coupons for regular mixers. When you want to redeem yours, send an email to Kelley Burke kburke@palmbaches.org and she will manually process your request and send you a confirmation. Please bring your coupon to the mixer and present it at the door.
7. How can my company pay by check?
Please fax the event flyer or email Kelley Burke kburke@palmbeaches.org and let her know that your company check is being processed.
8. On-line registration is closed, can I still come to an event?
Some events have limited seating and walk-ups cannot be accommodated, please check the Chamber homepage and see if there is a note that the event is sold out.
9. I haven’t gotten a chance to pay, can I send an email to reserve my spot?
Payment must accompany a registration in order to be pre-registered at the discount price, unless special arrangements have been made (i.e. paying with a company check).
10. What is the cancellation policy?
The Chamber will credit you back your registration fee if you cancel in writing 72 hours prior to the event. This is because we must guarantee the guest count to the venue 3 days in advance.
11. What is the dress code for events?
Unless noted, business attire is expected. For Power Networking, this is strictly enforced because the event is held at a private club. An event like the BBQ is more casual.
