TryBooking accepts a variety of payment options, including credit and debit cards.

The following payment methods are available:

• Visa credit and debit cards
• Mastercard credit and debit cards
• Apple Pay
• Google Pay
• PayPal

Event organisers can also provide gift certificates for purchase, which can be used against any event hosted on their account.  

Event organisers may also choose to accept payment via cash or cheque - however, it takes a few extra steps to record these payments in TryBooking. This will ensure you gather data on all attendees, that you don't oversell your event, and allows you to present all payments in one report.

Once your bank account has been verified in your TryBooking account, the account holder or finance user will be able to request a funds transfer.

While you can withdraw funds from your TryBooking account at any time after verifying your bank details, we strongly recommend that you wait until after the event has taken place.

This will not only make balancing accounts easier, but it also allows for ease of refunding should your event cancel or be postponed unexpectedly. All refunds should be completed using TryBooking so that there is a clear audit trail of the purchases and refunds in your account. This is required if the transaction is queried for chargebacks.

We understand that there may be occasions where you need to withdraw funds prior to the event taking place. We may perform additional checks prior to transferring funds if this is the case, and our finance team may get in touch to verify details about your event. Please keep this in mind should you be needing the funds to pay suppliers by a particular date.

We may also request documentation to verify your identity prior to processing your transfer request.
