The Member Portal
This is an Online System Provided by the National Order of the Arrow
About the Member Portal:
The member portal is an online tool that connects data stored in the lodge membership database, OA Lodgemaster, to each Arrowman. Through the member portal, Arrowmen can:
See upcoming Lodge events
Contact Lodge leadership with an easy-to-use form
View your membership information including if you have paid dues for the current year and your Ordeal, Brotherhood, and Vigil Induction dates
View and update your contact information (emails, phone numbers, and mailing address) or unsubscribe from Lodge communications.
View and print your Order of the Arrow membership card
In Addition Candidates, newly inducted Ordeal members, and members eligible for Brotherhood have additional features.
Candidates: Scouts and Scouters who are candidates can access the portal with limited features. They will be able to see upcoming induction opportunities and the “Ordeal Journey”, which is a series of tasks for candidates to complete to learn more about the Order of the Arrow and prepare for their induction.
New Members: New members will be able to access all the general features listed above and the “New Member/Brotherhood Journey,” which is a series of tasks for newly inducted members to complete to learn more about the induction they just completed and what the next steps are.
Welcome Brother! to OA History (The Brotherhood Journey will also be listed)
Brotherhood Eligible Members: Members who are eligible for Brotherhood membership will be able to access the “Brotherhood Journey,” a series of tasks to complete to prepare for the Brotherhood attainment class and ceremony. Many of these tasks are components from the OA’s Jumpstart for New Arrowmen tools.

Also, The National Team behind the project is busy developing new features for the member portal that will be released in the coming months.
How to Access the Member Portal:
First, you must be 13 years of age or older to get a Member Portal account. Currently, there is no access for parents to create accounts of members who are under 13. But our Lodge OA LodgeMaster Team has been told of a future update that should add the ability for parents of members under 13 to have access on their behalf.
In order to access the Member Portal, you will need the following things
An ArrowID Account
An Invite Email or Access Code
Arrow ID Account:
ArrowID is the Order of the Arrow's single sign-on (SSO) system- This System is used to access any official Order of the Arrow resources (such as the National OA Event Registration System (NOAERS) used for NOAC and NLS/DYLC, OA High Adventure Program; OA LodgeMaster, and the Member Portal). If you’ve ever attended NOAC or NLS, you probably already have an account.
If you already have an ArrowID account, there is no need to create a New One.
If you do not have an Arrow ID account, use the Setting up and accessing your Member Portal for the first-time guide Here
