If I buy a fan-club membership, when will it go into effect?

If you buy a fan-club membership, it will go effect automatically at the time of purchase, which is why all fan-club memberships are non-refundable. 

When you buy the membership, your subscription will be associated with the email address used to purchase it so you will need to log back onto the site with that same email address to access the fan club. Unless otherwise noted, all fan-club memberships last for one year from the date of purchase.
