3. Payment
You will pay DIBI the price specified in your booking form for the Event (Fees). Payment of your Fees must be made via credit, debit or other bank card at the time of placing an order for an Event. If payment is not successful or subject to a charge back, DIBI may (at its sole discretion) either require such payment as a condition of your entry to the Event or refuse you entry to the Event.
