Payment Options

Payment can be made by credit card, from your bank account or by invoice.

Payment by invoice

• For Trainers and Drivers there is an option to pay by invoice so that the licence fee is not required upfront.
• The invoice is then paid via an attachment to your trainer or driver fees paid by HRNZ each fortnight.
• The stakes payment must be due to you as an individual to be applied to your licence fees invoice.
• If you choose to pay by invoice please be aware that the deductions will begin from the next centralised stakes payment run on 15 June.
• The invoice must be paid in full before 31 July for your licence to be renewed. You will not be able to nominate horses or be entered as a driver for race meetings in the 2023 season unless this invoice is fully paid.
