We are excited to announce a new lockbox feature: Supra Non-Member Access (NMA)!
NMA allows agents to grant authorization to a non-member to access a Supra box using their smartphone or tablet. In short, it allows lockbox owners to use a Supra box like a combo-box, eliminating the need to have both.
Four big things to remember:
- Access is controlled by the listing agent and only granted for one person, for one lockbox, and for a specific time frame.
- You must have permission from the seller to allow someone access
- The Listing agent must turn the feature on in SupraWEB
- The member is liable for nonmember access

FAQ
Why is this being introduced?
Supra NMA has been introduced in a response to member requests for this feature and equips our members to better serve their clients and to meet the anticipated requirements of NAR’s 2020 Department of Justice Agreement.
I am a licensed member of MLS. Can I be granted NMA?
No. Because MLS Members are eligible for a Supra eKey, they are not considered a non-member.
I forgot to get the owner’s permission, am I in trouble?
Yes. This is a violation of the key holder agreement and may result in loss of key or MLS services. Not only should you have permission, but it is also advisable that permission be documented in writing.
Who is responsible for any possible damages or loss to the property by a nonmember?
When you grant a non-member access to a property, as the listing agent you take responsibility for any possible damages or loss at that property.
A New Orleans member and licensed agent wants to show my listing. Can I grant them NMA?
NOMAR and GBRAR have a key co-op agreement that will allow keys to work on the other association’s boxes from the date of issuance. Because NOMAR members are eligible for a Supra eKey in the New Orleans market, they are considered by Supra to be a member and the system will not allow NMA. They should be referred to NOMAR for a key.
I cannot reach the Keybox owner and need NMA. Can I call MLS or Supra to get access?
No, NMA can only be granted by the Keybox owner registered with Supra.
This FAQ address ONLY consequences under the MLS rules. It does not address any liability to persons or for property that may occur from violation of the MLS rules.
