Having up-to-date [[Ct#Affiliate|affiliate]] account details, such as contact information and payment details, can be very important. Without having these details stored in [[NATS For Networks]], your [[NATS For Networks Affiliate Managers|Affiliate Manager]] or any other [[Ct#Admin (Person, NATS For Networks)|admins]] will not be able to contact you if necessary.

All of your account information can be seen and edited on the Affiliate Account Details page, which can be found in the "My Account" section in the toolbar at the top of every [[Ct#Affiliate|affiliate]] page in [[NATS For Networks]].

The Account Details page contains all of the information that you provided when signing up for your [[NATS For Networks]] Installation. This includes your name, address, various contact information, payment details, and password.

Some [[NATS For Networks]] Networks may require e-mail or administrator verification before changes to your account details can be saved. For more verification settings, visit your [[NATS For Networks Affiliate Settings]].

You can use this to edit information for checks, domestic wires, ePassporte, and any other payment options supported by [[NATS For Networks]] and offered by your [[Ct#Network (Person)|Network]]. Once you select your desired payment method, you will be able to update the required information as you wish.

<!-- === W9 Information ===

The W9 Information section allows [[Ct#Affiliate|affiliates]] to upload a W9 form for the [[Ct#Network (Person)|Network]], which provides the tax information necessary to make payments to [[Ct#Affiliate|affiliates]].

Use the link provided in the "IRS Form" field to download a blank version of the W9 form. This form must be downloaded and filled out by the [[Ct#Affiliate|affiliate]], who must then upload the completed version to the [[NATS For Networks]] server.
