NSBA Transitions to Digital Membership Cards

National Snaffle Bit Association announces that beginning March 9, 2026, the association will transition from printing and mailing physical membership cards and will instead issue digital membership cards via email.

For many members, keeping track of a physical card while traveling between shows, barns and events can be challenging. By moving to digital delivery, members will receive their membership credentials faster and will be able to easily access them from their phone or inbox whenever needed—whether at the show office, at home or on the road.

“NSBA is always looking for ways to better serve our members and meet them where they are,” shared NSBA Executive Director Stephanie Lynn. “This transition allows us to provide membership information more quickly and reliably, while also preparing for a more robust online experience in the near future.”

All new and renewed memberships will receive a digital membership card via email, similar to the current process for horse registration certificates. Members are encouraged to save a copy to their phone or device for easy reference.

This update reflects NSBA’s continued commitment to serving members with more timely, convenient access to their membership information while preparing for the launch of a new online member portal, tentatively scheduled for April 2026.

The upcoming online portal, anticipated to launch in April 2026, will provide members with expanded access to their records and documents in one convenient location. Additional details about the portal will be shared as they become available.

Members can continue to verify their membership online prior to the launch of the portal. Visit the NSBA website and select the Showing tab, then select Member Lookup or using the direct link: nsba.com/member-lookup. For more information or to obtain a digital copy of your membership card, please contact membership@nsba.com or (847) 623-6722.
