+==== Concessions ====
+Concession prices of £80 for Player Tickets are available for those who need it, for example to:
+  * Students
+  * Those not in full time employment
+  * Disabled attendees
+  * Anyone attending in order to care for another attendee
+Concession eligibility is taken on trust.  If you are unsure whether you should qualify, you are welcome to email us at [[talesuntold.larp@gmail.com]] to ask.
+==== How to Pay ====
+Payment should be made by [[https://paypal.me/ktlmoore?country.x=GB&locale.x=en_GB|PayPal to Katie Moore]] using the Family and Friends Option.  You must use the Family and Friends option (//Tales Untold// is not a business) as otherwise we lose around 10% of payments to PayPal fees.  We will get in touch to ask for payments to cover the lost 10% if you use the incorrect option.
+Payments may be made in parts if you desire - if you choose this option we will send periodic reminders of your outstanding balance.  The balance will still be due by the deadline unless agreed otherwise with us.  This option is not available for Late Bookings made after the Main Booking deadline.
