No. The credit card number that you see in your Account Details page has all but the last 4 digits blanked out, and the card number is coming to that page from a different location than the remainder of your profile information -- in other words, the card info is not stored together with any of your other information.

When you click on "Upgrade/Renew", or go to the Pro Membership order form, you go to a secure page: the web address of that page begins with "https:", and the "s" means secure.

Yes, but you must contact FestivalNet ( support@festivalnet.com ) to do that. Please keep track of your User ID and Password. You must log in with the User ID listed with your event(s) in order to add or update an event. We prefer that you keep the User ID currently listed for your event/organization, but it is not required.
*Please Keep in Mind: If your account is used by more than one person in your organization, we highly recommend against changing your user ID to avoid confusion. If you are simply unsure of what your user ID is, feel free to contact us, and we will look it up for you instead of changing it.

Next, choose your application file. This file needs to be available for upload on the computer or network you're attempting to upload from. We accept the following file formats: pdf, doc, docx, odt, txt. If your application is in a different format, please convert it before attempting to upload. There are many free document editors available to do so with.

After your title and description are set, and your file is selected, click "Upload Document" to upload it. If you need to edit or remove documents after uploading them, go back under the My Applications tab, and select the appropriate action there.
