Payment Info
At the moment, payment to participate in an event is by credit card only. This is because payment by credit card is the only way we can confirm your participation at the event immediately and if participating by teleconference, send you the dial-in details and the link to the speaker's presentation on time.
We accept the following credit cards: American Express | Visa | Mastercard
We will send you a receipted invoice once we have received your credit card payment. The invoice will show that you have already paid to participate in the event. You can then use the invoice to obtain a reimbursement for your costs from your law firm / employer organisation.
We appreciate that many people may have concerns about using credit cards to make purchases on-line. This is why we have partnered with Ireland’s premier payment services processor, Realex Payments (www.realexpayments.com), to ensure that you can use your personal or corporate credit card with the maximum of security.
Realex Payments were the first Irish payments services processor to achieve Level 1 Service Provider status against the international Payment Cards Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards (DSS). The Level 1 Service Provider/Merchant category is the highest level in PCI DSS.
A copy of Realex Payments' current PCI compliance certificate can be found here.
For further information about Realex Payments implementation of the PCI standards, please follow this link.
We at Brussels Matters have no access to the personal credit card information that you will fill into the secure Realex Payments credit-card payment processing page (step 5/5). This page is hosted on the Realex Payments' server, not the Brussels Matters server.
Changes to Brussels Matters receipts
Occasionally, we are asked to change a receipt for payment to participate in a discussion after Brussels Matters has issued the receipt based on the data provided at the time of registration.
Please check all the information provided at Step 3/5 of the registration process as this information forms the basis for the receipts for payment issued by Brussels Matters.
Requests to change receipts once they have been issued by Brussels Matters will incur an administration charge, currently 50% of the value of the transaction.
