To qualify for membership of CA you must live or work in Denmark. You have to be at least 18 years old and sign up no later than two years before your state pension age. CA is a multi-professional unemployment fund (a-kasse) that accepts members of all trades and occupations. However, most of CA’s members are graduates from universities, business schools and business colleges and more than 90 per cent of them work in management, communications, sales and marketing, finance, IT and similar fields.

If you have reached the state pension age, you furthermore have the option to become a senior member. This gives you the opportunity to get help with job searching, etc., but does not entitle you to any benefits from us. This is reflected in a considerably lower membership fee.

You have to check your bank statement to see if the transaction has been made and the money has been withdrawn from your account. Please remember that you must set up the agreement before we send you an invoice for the membership fee as it may take some time for the fixed payment agreement to take effect. It is important that you check your account to see if the payment has been made once the membership fee reaches the date due.

The fixed agreement is between you and your bank, so CA can not help you transfer the agreement to a new account. However, you can set up a new agreement or contact your new bank about setting up an agreement.
