No, there’s nothing you need to do. On October 13, your Live Play subscription automatically becomes Premium Member, and you’ll receive a separate email with everything you need to activate your CLA account.

Premium Member includes everything you enjoy in Live Play today, plus a full CLA Membership, a dedicated free duplicate tournament, and 150 CJ Tokens. Premium Member pricing reflects an increase compared to the previous Live Play rate, which accounts for the CLA Membership and other new benefits now included, as well as our ongoing commitment to future improvements and special events reserved for paying members.

No. Multi-platform access is included with every membership, so one membership lets you play on your iPad, iPhone, Android device, or your computer’s browser. Ad Free Member and Premium Member are simply priced differently depending on whether you subscribe on Web or on the Mobile App.

No. Unlimited Solitaire and Duplicate tournaments (entry paid with CJ Tokens) are open to everyone, including Guests, for free. If you’d like to play Solitaire without ads, Ad Free Member removes advertising entirely, with a 7-day free trial.

The easiest way is right from the welcome pop-ups you’ll see when you open Canasta Junction. You can also go to your profile at any time, on Web or in the Mobile App: any membership you don’t have yet appears grayed out. Tap Subscribe on the one you’d like, then choose monthly or annual billing. Your free trial begins right away.

The Canasta League of America is an independent organization working to standardize and grow Modern American Canasta across North America. CLA Membership gives you exclusive strategic content, a space to connect with League members and instructors, certified blog articles, and your official CLA member title.

It’s included automatically with Premium Member, so there’s no separate sign-up. You’ll receive an email with full instructions: simply log in to the CLA platform using the same email address as your Canasta Junction account. If your Premium Membership ends, your CLA membership continues, with dues payable directly to the CLA. Learn more at canastaleague.org.

Make sure your new device is signed in to the same Apple account (also known as Apple ID) than the old one, where the subscription was purchased. You can check which is which by following these directions:

1. ON THE DEVICE that HAS Canasta Junction, Go to Settings.
2. ON OLDER OPERATING SYSTEMS:
3. Scroll down to iTunes App Store.
4. Take note of the account email.
5. ​ON NEWER OPERATING SYSTEMS (or if no iTunes App Store exists):
6. ​Select Your name at the very top (under your name it will say Apple ID).
7. Scroll down to Media & Purchases, take note of the email connected.
8. Repeat steps 1 and 2 (or 1 and 3) on the other device – if the account is different than the original unit, you must log out and log in with that username and password.
9. Go to the App Store and find Canasta Junction – download should appear as a cloud with a down arrow.

1. Open Canasta Junction app
2. Go to your CJ account by tapping/clicking on your CJ username in the top left-hand corner
3. Go to Manage Subscription
4. According to the platform you are subscribed from, you will be given the instructions to check your subscription status (IOS and Android) or show your current subscription info (Web)

Do I need more than one membership?
​No, if both devices are connected to the same Apple account (also known as Apple ID). Checking your Apple ID is easy: open the Settings app. Click on the <Name> at the top. The device’s Apple ID will be listed under the name (an email address in most cases). Remember that you may always change the Apple ID on your devices.

I updated on my iPhone but can’t play on my iPad.
Make sure both devices are updated and are connected to the same Apple ID (see above). If they are the same, Log Out and back in again and select Restore. If you still can’t get the subscription active, please fully delete the app and redownload (make sure you see the cloud with down arrow and not just “OPEN”), then go to your Account, Log In and select Restore.

Yes, at any time:

• iPhone / iPad: Settings > your name > Subscriptions > Canasta Junction > Cancel Subscription.
• Android: Google Play Store > profile icon > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions > Canasta Junction > Cancel.
• Web: in your Canasta Junction account settings.

Because billing is handled by Apple, Google, or Stripe, a membership can only be canceled from the account it was purchased with. You keep your benefits until the end of your current billing period.

Yes. iPhone and iPad subscribers can share their Premium Member subscription with family members through Apple’s Family Sharing.
