Easy Pay Terms and Conditions

AFL Easy Pay Plan

The Easy Pay auto-renew plan makes being a Member even simpler and more affordable. Easy Pay eases the financial pressure sometimes associated with Club Membership by offering payment via instalments and as your membership will rollover automatically into the next season, it is an effortless and convenient way to continue your Melbourne Football Club Membership. Easy Pay offers upfront payments and monthly instalments.

Joining Made Easy

Easy pay is the default payment method for all 2024 Melbourne Football Club Memberships. You may choose to pay via monthly instalments or via annual instalments that are rolled over each year. If you wish to opt out of easy pay, you must contact the club by phone or email, or mention it to your Melbourne membership officer when processing your membership.

Annual Upfront payment: At no additional cost to you, you can opt to provide your debit/credit card details for an upfront payment to be transacted at the commencement of each annual renewal period (October 24th), saving you the hassle of renewing each year. Instalment is taken on October 24 2023, or on receipt of your application.

Monthly Payments: We have two monthly plans available; a 10-month plan available for those who like to renew early, and a 6-month plan for those who join us just prior to, or during, the football season.

At no additional cost to you, we divide your annual membership fee into 10 easy instalments (November to August) or 6 instalments (March to August) that are charged to your nominated VISA or MasterCard each month over 10 or 6 months. VISA Debit Card and Debit MasterCard are also accepted. Payments commence upon receipt of your application, or on November 1st for rolling payment plans. Payments commencing after March 1st or November 1st will have a catch-up payment to bring payments up to date with regular monthly payments. Members on the 6-month plan will roll onto the 10-month plan the following season.
