Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about registration, stand booking, payment, check-in, and event operations.

How do I book a stand?

Create a vendor account with your business details, choose how many stands you need (one or more), accept the vendor terms, and pay securely through Trite. The current price per stand is always shown on the booking page.

How are stand numbers assigned?

Stand numbers are assigned automatically in ascending order the instant your payment is confirmed — there is nothing to pick, no maps, no reservations.

When is my stand confirmed?

Your stands are confirmed and numbered the moment Trite confirms your payment. You immediately receive your stand numbers and confirmation codes on screen, by SMS, and as a downloadable PDF.

Can someone take a stand while I am paying?

Nothing is claimed until a payment succeeds, and assignment is atomic — two vendors can never be given the same stand number. If stands sell out before your payment completes, your payment is flagged for review and the organisers will resolve it with you.

What is a confirmation code?

Each stand you buy gets a unique short code (like VS-4K7P2). You present a code at the gate to check in. Codes stay permanently available in your VendSpace account.

Can I buy more than one stand?

Yes — you may register for one or more stands in a single booking. The total is simply the number of stands multiplied by the per-stand price shown at checkout.

Can I change my stand?

Stand changes require organiser approval and depend on availability, pricing, safety, and operational constraints.

Can I transfer or sell my stand?

No. A stand may not be sold, sublet, shared, or transferred without written organiser approval.

Will allocations ever change?

Reasonable allocation changes may be made for safety, infrastructure, sponsorship, security, crowd management, or venue operations. The organisers will communicate affected assignments.

What happens if payment fails?

Confirm that the payment method has sufficient funds and that the details are correct, then retry before the reservation expires. Do not repeatedly pay if your account has already been debited; contact support with the transaction reference.

What if I pay twice?

Report the duplicate payment with both transaction references. The payments will be reconciled before any approved refund is processed.

Will I receive a receipt?

Yes. A verified payment should produce a booking confirmation and receipt linked to your vendor account.

Can I get a refund?

Refunds are not automatic. Eligibility depends on the reason, timing, event status, costs already incurred, and the Refund & Cancellation Policy.

What documents do I need?

Provide accurate registration information and any licences, health certificates, identification, or permits required for your products and services when requested.

Is electricity included?

Electricity access is subject to the facilities assigned to the relevant zone and organiser approval. High-load equipment, generators, gas, and open flames must be declared and approved.

Can food vendors cook at the stand?

Only where permitted and operated in accordance with food-safety, fire-safety, venue, and organiser requirements.

Can I bring a generator?

Only with prior approval and subject to safe placement, fuel handling, noise, emissions, and fire-safety controls.

Can I play music or use a speaker?

Sound must remain within approved limits and must not interfere with the event programme, emergency announcements, or neighbouring vendors.

Who is responsible for my stock and equipment?

The vendor remains responsible for stock, equipment, cash, staff, and insurance. Report theft or security incidents immediately.

How do I access my booking later?

Sign in with the account used for registration to view the booking, payment status, stand details, and available documents.

What happens if I break the vendor rules?

The organisers may warn, suspend, relocate, close, or cancel the stand depending on the seriousness of the breach. Removal for misconduct does not automatically qualify for a refund.

How will organisers contact me?

Operational notices may be sent using the email address and phone numbers supplied during registration, including by SMS, phone, WhatsApp, or platform notification.

Still need help?

Contact the event support team and include your registration email, phone number, and booking reference where available.
