Registration

Register your team/s in March if you agree with the terms and conditions.  ​
This requires upfront payment via credit card of $50 per team or $45 per team for CBCA members. Make sure your membership is up to date, and you have the membership code for 2025 before you register your team/s.

Join/renew CBCA Qld (January to December) to receive the membership code for the discounted rate.

• On payment via Trybooking you will receive a membership code to use when registering a team to receive a $5 discount per team on checkout. The code is issued immediately in the confirmation email.
• Other methods (Direct deposit etc) require manual processing and will take usually 3 business days after receipt of funds.  Do not register your team until you receive your membership code.

What if I can't pay Readers Cup registration by credit card?

• Download a generic invoice for your team/s. CBCA Member invoice. Non-member invoice.
• Process via your finance area. 
• On receipt of payment, we will issue a receipt that contains a special code for you to use when you complete the registration of your team via Trybooking. When you add the code at the point of sale, it will give 100% discount.
• This process of paying via invoice is not immediate - it will take a few days after funds are received.
