Payments
How do I pay?
Registration payments are to be made through Play Football when completing your registration.
Any problems with your payment, please contact the treasurer@belnorth.org
Payment Plans
Belnorth offers payment plans for winter player registrations. Players and families experiencing financial hardship, or requiring additional time to pay registration fees, may apply for a payment plan.
Applications must be submitted through the online form below when registrations open. All payment plans must be approved by club administration and consist of an agreement on the total amount, schedule, and method of payment.
To apply for a Payment Plan, fill out the form below when registrations open.
Payment Methods & Schedule
- Belnorth FC charges a $20 administration fee per payment plan. Multiple registrations for one family can be included on a payment plan and therefore will attract a single administration fee of $20.
- Payments are completed via direct debit.
- The payment plan will consist of four (4) fortnightly payment instalments. Each direct debit instalment attracts a transaction fee of 1% + $0.40 (capped at $4).
- Final payment on all instalment plans must be completed by 30 June of the registration year.
Steps for the Payment Plan Process
Step 1: Complete Payment Plan Application Form below.
Step 2a: Create a Draft PlayFootball Registration: go through all the steps of registering on PlayFootball for the relevant age group(s), including accepting terms and conditions. Once you get to the payment screen press the “Confirm & Pay” Button without providing payment details. This will create the draft registration.
Step 2b: Complete Direct Debit (GoCardless) payment details and authority: Once the Treasurer receives and processes your plan request, you will be sent an email with a link to enter your direct debit details via the GoCardless portal. Via the link, there will be two screens. One to provide direct debit details, then a second screen is to approve the direct debit authority. Please complete this process.
Step 3: Pay First Instalment: Once the first direct debit is collected, Belnorth will finalise your draft Registration on PlayFootball.
Step 4: Continue to Pay Scheduled Payments: Registration and eligibility to participate in Football at Belnorth will be contingent on meeting scheduled payments via direct debit. Failed payments may result in the cancellation of registration.
Junior Grading Eligibility: Players that are paying registration via a payment plan, are required to complete steps 1, 2a and 2b above to be eligible to participate in grading.

Where does my Belnorth membership money go?
All Belnorth FC revenue raised through fees, sponsorship and other means is directed towards payments to the ACT Government, payments to Capital Football and the general costs of running the club. A rough guide to the breakdown is:
- 40%-45% of revenue goes to Capital Football and FA costs.
- 25%-30% of revenue goes to ACT Sportsgrounds for field and facilities hire for training & home grounds during the trials and winter season.
- The remainder on planned costs for equipment maintenance & replacement, presentation days & trophies, coaching & technical development, and other general costs of running a club.
Each year, depending on the accuracy of budget forecasts for player numbers and any unforeseen events, the club will run at a small surplus or deficit.
