The Long Version

Resale and Refunds

The unauthorized resale or attempted resale of the badge is prohibited and will constitute a forfeiture of the badge without compensation. Each badge must be used by the same person for each day of the Event.

PAX Aus will only offer a refund or exchange of a badge if an event is cancelled, rescheduled or significantly relocated (and you cannot or do not wish to attend the rescheduled or relocated event) or to the extent otherwise required by law.

PAX Aus will provide a refund or exchange of badge to any customer who feels unwell and has been directed by a medical professional to stay at home. To request a refund or exchange of badge please email info@paxaustralia.com.au with a medical certificate or applicable evidence on or before 15 October 2023. Any requests after this date will not be processed.
