Look at your magazine’s mailing label. The first 10 numbers above your name are your account number. Guideposts makes this clear on their payment status page, even providing a visual example of where to find this information on the label.
If you can’t find your magazine or the label is damaged, you can always call customer service for assistance.
What Happens If I Miss a Payment?
We all forget things sometimes – I’ve definitely missed a payment or two myself! If you miss a Guideposts payment:

All these options are available after logging in with your account number at https://guideposts.cloud.buysub.com/.

Payment processing can take 1-3 business days. If it’s been longer, contact customer service with your payment confirmation.
“I can’t log in to my account”
Double-check that you’re using the correct account number from your magazine label. If you still can’t access your account, use the “Forgot Password” option or contact customer service.
“I need to update my payment method”
Log in to your account and navigate to the payment methods section. From there, you can add, update, or remove payment methods.
“I received a bill but I thought I paid already”
Bills and payments sometimes cross in the mail. Check your bank records to confirm your payment went through, then contact customer service if you need further assistance.
