Shape the Future

Becoming a member of WAVS means that you can help shape the future of the Subagent system. Thanks to WAVS and its membership, we have experienced service fee adjustments that have allowed us all to stay in business in today’s competitive labor market. We have also achieved service fee equalization, eliminating additional costs to customers for processing transactions at a Subagent, among many other events and decisions that have occurred due to WAVS and its incredible collection of members.

Collaborate Together

WAVS also hosts a yearly conference with dozens of attendees from a variety of backgrounds and filled with vast amounts of specialized knowledge from fellow Subagent business owners to DOL staff and executives with decades of policy and administrative knowledge. Furthermore, WAVS provides exclusive access to workshops, events, and resources that can enhance your advocacy skills and deepen your understanding of key issues.
