12. Online Shop and Purchases

12.1 Account Requirements:
All purchases on our website require you to create an account or log in to an existing account. Guest checkout is not available. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

12.2 Product Descriptions:
We make every effort to display products accurately. However, colours may vary slightly due to monitor settings, and product descriptions are provided for informational purposes only.

12.3 Pricing:
All prices are displayed in Australian Dollars (AUD) and include GST where applicable. Prices may be subject to change without notice. The price charged will be the price displayed at the time of your order. Payment processing fees may apply as detailed in Section 14.

12.4 Order Confirmation:
Upon completing a purchase, you will receive an email confirmation containing your order details. For training products, your QR code for session check-in will be included in this email and will also be available in your account dashboard.

12.5 Made-to-Order Products:
Uniforms and certain merchandise are made-to-order and cannot be cancelled once the order has been placed. Please ensure you select the correct size and options before completing your purchase.

13. Training Academy Terms

13.1 Training Pass Products:

10-Week Training Term: Includes 10 training sessions. Sessions do not expire on a specific date but are consumed upon check-in.
Weekly Drop-In Pass: Includes 1 training session. Must be used within 7 days of purchase.

13.2 QR Code Check-In:

Upon purchase of a training pass, you will receive a unique QR code via email and in your online account.
Present your QR code to a coach at each training session for attendance verification.
Each check-in deducts one session from your pass balance.
QR codes are non-transferable and may only be used by the registered player.

13.3 Session Rollover:
Unused sessions on a 10-Week Training Term pass will automatically roll over into subsequent terms. Sessions are session-based, not date-based, meaning you may use your remaining sessions regardless of when the term officially ends. You will receive an email notification when you have 3 sessions remaining.

13.4 Player Registration Requirement:
To participate in training sessions, players are encouraged to complete the club’s player registration form. This form collects information required for Volleyball South Australia (VSA) insurance coverage. While registration is not required to purchase training passes, players without completed registration may not be covered by VSA insurance.

13.5 Refunds for Training Products:
Training passes are generally non-refundable. In exceptional circumstances, such as a season-ending injury sustained during CAVC activities or the cancellation of training sessions by the club, the committee may consider a partial or full refund. Refund requests must be submitted in writing to info@centraladelaidevolleyballclub.com.au.

14. Payment Methods and Processing Fees

We accept multiple payment methods for your convenience. Payment processing fees apply to cover the cost of secure payment handling and may be added to your order total at checkout.

14.1 Credit/Debit Card Payments (via Stripe):

Processing Fee: 1.7% of order total + $0.30 per transaction

14.2 Afterpay (Buy Now, Pay Later):

Payment Plan Fee: 6% of order total + $0.30 per transaction

14.4 Surcharge Calculation:
The payment processing fee will be calculated and displayed at checkout before you confirm your order. The fee is added to your order subtotal based on your selected payment method. In accordance with Australian Consumer Law, surcharges do not exceed the actual cost incurred by us to process your payment.

14.5 Example:
For a $100 order paid by credit card, the processing fee would be $2.00 (1.7% × $100 + $0.30 = $2.00), making the total $102.00. For the same order paid via Afterpay, the fee would be $6.30 (6% × $100 + $0.30 = $6.30), making the total $106.30.
