Subscriptions are what entitles you to the benefits of membership. These benefits are numerous and specific to each subscription and can be found by clicking on a subscription. But in general they grant access to restricted content, give access to discounted rates and allow sign up to exclusive events. 

Subscriptions are typically either for a year or for life but can have different lengths. They also typically charge a fee, although some subscriptions are granted through other means, such as membership to a national Federation.
