About TryBooking

TryBooking is an online ticketing and event registration platform based in Australia. It is widely used by schools, community groups, charities, sporting clubs, and businesses to create event pages, sell tickets, manage registrations, and handle seating allocations and payments. Event organizers configure their own pricing, fees, and event details, while attendees purchase tickets securely through the TryBooking website.

A charge from TryBooking on your card statement typically means you have purchased a ticket or registration to an event, such as a school function, concert, sports event, conference, fundraiser, or community activity. The descriptor may include a location like “Melbourne S South Yarra AUS” and sometimes the event or organizer name, but card statements often only show “TRYBOOKING” plus a short reference. These are usually one‑time charges, although you might see multiple charges if you bought several tickets or paid for multiple events.

If you do not recognize the charge, start by checking your email for a TryBooking confirmation, receipt, or ticket PDF around the transaction date. You can also log into your TryBooking account (if you created one) to view past bookings, or contact the event organizer listed on your tickets. For billing disputes or technical issues, TryBooking’s support team can be reached via the contact options on their website; having the last four digits of your card, the transaction date, and amount handy will help them locate the charge. If you still can’t identify the payment, you can contact your bank to investigate or raise a dispute.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from TryBooking on my card statement?

A TryBooking charge usually means you purchased tickets or registered for an event (such as a school concert, fundraiser, sports event, or seminar) through the TryBooking platform. The event itself is organized by a third party—TryBooking handles the ticketing and payment processing.

I don’t recognize the TryBooking charge. How can I find out which event it was for?

Search your email for “TryBooking” around the transaction date to find the booking confirmation or ticket PDF. The email will show the event name, organizer, and amount paid. If you cannot find an email, you can contact TryBooking support via their website with the transaction date and amount so they can help identify the event.

Does TryBooking charge any additional booking or card fees?

TryBooking allows event organizers to configure who pays booking and card processing fees—either the organizer, the attendee, or a combination of both. Any fees payable by you are shown in the checkout screen before you confirm payment, so the total on your receipt should match the charge on your statement.

How do I get a refund for tickets purchased via TryBooking?

Refunds are managed by the event organizer, not directly by TryBooking. Check your booking confirmation email for the organizer’s contact details and refund policy, then contact them to request a refund or change. TryBooking can assist the organizer in processing the refund once they approve it, but they generally cannot override the organizer’s policies.

Can I cancel or change my TryBooking tickets or registration?

Whether you can cancel, change dates, or transfer tickets depends on the event organizer’s policy. Review the terms listed on the event page or in your confirmation email, then contact the organizer directly. Some events allow name changes or session changes, while others may be non‑refundable or have cut‑off dates.

Why is the location on the descriptor “South Yarra AUS” even though my event was elsewhere?

TryBooking is headquartered in South Yarra, Victoria, and the merchant location on your card statement often reflects the payment processor’s or company’s base location, not the physical location of the event. The event itself may be in a different city or state.

Does TryBooking place any temporary or pending charges on my card?

In most cases, TryBooking processes a single final charge at the time you complete your booking. However, if there is an issue verifying your card, your bank may show a temporary pending authorization that usually drops off automatically within a few days if the transaction does not complete.

How can I contact TryBooking about a billing issue or unrecognized charge?

Go to trybooking.com and visit the Support or Contact section to submit a support request or find regional contact details. Provide the date, amount, card type, and any reference from your statement so they can locate the transaction and advise whether it relates to a specific event or organizer.
