About Mensa There are many reasons for belonging to Mensa. Prestige and Exclusivity Mensa is the prestigious high IQ society. Most members join two or more of Mensa's Special Interest Groups and thus enjoy stimulating contacts with those who share their interests. This self-knowledge can be a source of confidence and many Mensans are proud to display the gold 'M'blem' which is the badge of membership. Newsletter Every Mensa member receives each month a personal copy of the Mensa Magazine , packed with news, features , ideas, puzzles and competitions as well as full details of Local Group meetings organised in your area in the coming month.
Every member is included in the Yearbook.
This enables you to contact others in your area and others to contact you. Credit Card Mensa members can, subject to status, carry one of the world's most prestigious credit cards. The exclusive British Mensa MasterCard is available only to Mensa members . Many Mensa Publications are available to buy online at Mensan Books Online or at most good bookstores. Many employers take note of the fact that you have achieved the status of becoming a Mensan .
