How to order Consumer Action’s publications

Instructions for non-profit agencies

Non-profit groups and government agencies may order our printed publications in bulk. (Not all Consumer Action publications are available in print.)

Beginning April 1, 2019, we are introducing a new Affiliate membership program, which includes six bulk publication orders at no additional charge. Non-members will be billed $15 per 500 copies. We will send an invoice for you to approve before shipment.

Please be advised that shipments may take up to four weeks. However, a PDF version of our publications is available for immediate download from within the publication page.

For more information, email Consumer Action at [email protected].
