Prices and payment
Each Booking Form that you submit will constitute a separate agreement between you and the Club on the terms set out in these T&Cs (Booking). To the extent of any inconsistency between these T&Cs and the contents of any Booking Form, these T&Cs will prevail.
You must pay the Club the amount specified as the 'Total Cost' for each Season Package and/or Casual Pass (as the case may be) in the relevant Booking Form. All prices are inclusive of GST.
Payment can be made by credit or debit card by Visa, Mastercard or American Express (subject to a 3% surcharge for American Express only). Payment is required in full at the time of booking, except for Season Packages which may be paid by four instalments on the dates provided in a Booking Form, by way of direct debit from the card nominated by you. Each instalment will incur a 2% administration fee. If payment of an instalment is declined for any reason, you must contact the Club immediately and arrange for payment of the relevant instalment within 5 days of the date that payment was due. If payment is not received during this time, the Club reserves the right in its absolute discretion to suspend any Season Package until payment has been received in full, and you acknowledge and agree that tickets to any events scheduled during the period of suspension will be forfeited.
No Season Package or Casual Pass (as the case may be) is confirmed until full payment has been received by the Club. The Club is not required to issue tickets to any event or provide any other services (including access to the event) to you unless and until payment for the Booking has been received in full.
Where applicable, tickets to an event will be issued no later than seven (7) days prior to the scheduled event.
