1.    Introduction

(a)    Richmond Football Club Ltd (RFC) conducts corporate hospitality events from time to time (Event).   These RFC Corporate Hospitality Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) govern the purchase of tickets to the Events (Tickets) and attendance at the Events.  
(b)    By purchasing a Ticket, customers agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions (customer or you) which form a separate agreement with RFC.  Each Ticket that you purchase may also be subject to additional terms and conditions relevant to the particular Event as set out on that Ticket.  To the extent of any inconsistency between these T&Cs and the terms of any Ticket, these T&Cs will prevail.

2.    Prices & Payment
(a)    Bookings for an Event cannot be accepted by the RFC without receipt of payment in full by the RFC.  No Tickets will be released until such payment has been received and confirmed in writing to you.
(b)    All prices for Tickets are in Australian Dollars (AUD) and are inclusive of GST.
(c)    Payment for Tickets must be made by credit card (including VISA, Mastercard and Amex) either via the RFC website (Website) or by phone to the RFC. For any transaction via the Website, payment will be processed by RFC’s third party payment provider, Stripe, and will be subject to the payment terms and conditions of Stripe (Stripe T&Cs).  Such terms are as between Stripe and the customer and do not in any way affect these T&Cs. It is your responsibility to ensure that there are sufficient clear funds available in your account to allow the transaction to be completed. You will be unable to complete the purchase if the payment is declined.
3.    Tickets
(a)    For Events that require a barcoded Ticket, RFC will send your Ticket(s) via email once payment has been received. If you have not received your Ticket(s) within one (1) business day before the Event, please contact the RFC’s sales team at sales@richmondfc.com.au or on (03) 9426 4989.
(b)    Tickets purchased may not, without prior written authorisation of RFC, be offered for sale or re-sold at a premium (including via online auctions or other unauthorised resale websites), exchanged for goods and services or be used for advertising, promotion or other commercial purposes (including competitions or trade promotions). If a Ticket is sold or used in breach of this clause 3, it will be void and the ticketholder will be refused admission to the Event.  This includes bookings associated with the same name, e-mail address, billing address, credit card number or other information.
(c)    Limits of the number of Tickets that can be purchased may apply at the discretion of the RFC. If you exceed any Ticket limit, any or all of your Tickets may be cancelled without notice by the RFC in its discretion. This includes bookings associated with the same name, e-mail address, billing address, credit card number or other information.
(d)    The RFC may replace any Ticket(s) that may have been stolen, lost or destroyed, provided that you provide copy of booking confirmation and/or proof of purchase. 

4.    Cancellation by RFC
(a)    The RFC may, in its absolute discretion, cancel, reschedule or modify any part or all of an Event, including in the event of unforeseen circumstances or events beyond the RFC’s reasonable control.

(i)    the price of any Rescheduled Event may vary and will be notified by the RFC; and
(ii)    if the cost of the Rescheduled Event:
(A)    increases, you must pay the shortfall between the original price and the new price of for the Rescheduled Event to secure your booking; or
(B)    decreases, upon confirmation with you of the booking, the RFC will refund to you the difference between the original price and the new price for the Rescheduled Event.
(c)    If the Event is cancelled, re-scheduled or significantly modified by RFC pursuant to clause 4(a), and you cannot or do not wish to attend the Rescheduled Event, RFC will offer to you either a refund, credit or Ticket exchange for another Event for your acceptance.  

5.    Cancellation by you
