PAYMENT PLAN AGREEMENT

By selecting the monthly payment plan, you agree to have the agreed-upon amount automatically deducted each month using the payment method you provide, starting on the day of purchase. Monthly payments will continue for 10 months or until 30 days before the event, whichever comes sooner, at which time any remaining balance must be paid in full through a separate transaction outside of the monthly plan. A CTBR representative will contact you to arrange the final payment if your plan starts less than 10 months before the event.

If the payment plan is initiated 10 months or more before the event, the final payment will be automatically deducted on month 10, and the obligation will be recorded as paid in full, with no further payments required.

Failure to complete the final payment may result in the cancellation of your membership and forfeiture of benefits. If you fail to attend and your spot is not filled by a replacement team, your entry fee will not be refunded. However, if we are able to fill your spot, you will receive a 100% refund of your entry fee.
