No credit card required. No contracts. Cancel anytime.

Built for Australia

Set Up for Australia

The bits that matter when your venue is in Brisbane, not Brighton.

Priced in Australian dollars

Starter is A$89.95 a month and Gold is A$149.95. Sign up from Australia and your account bills in AUD, so the price on this page is the price on your invoice.

Guests pay in AUD, to you

Deposits, tickets, gift cards and memberships are charged in Australian dollars through your own Stripe or Square account. The money lands with you, not with us.

Card rules, already handled

Card surcharges are banned from 1 October 2026, and BookingNinja never added one, so there's nothing to switch off. The eftpos routing notice Stripe asks for is on every card form too.

GST your way

Call the tax GST, set it to 10% and choose whether your prices include it. GST shows at checkout and on the tax invoice guests can open afterwards, with your ABN on it.

Marketing with consent built in

The Spam Act wants consent and an easy way out. Guests tick the marketing box themselves, campaigns go to people who opted in, and every email has a one-click unsubscribe.

Support while you're open

We're on Monday to Friday, 6am to 2pm AWST. WhatsApp, email or live chat, and you'll usually get the people who build the product.

FAQ

BookingNinja in Australia, Answered

How much does BookingNinja cost in Australia?
Starter is A$89.95 a month and Gold is A$149.95 a month, both in Australian dollars, or A$899 and A$1,499 a year if you pay annually. Card payments you take online carry your Stripe or Square processing fees plus a transaction fee of 1% on Starter and 1% on Gold. There are no per-cover fees and no contract.
Will I be billed in Australian dollars or pounds?
Australian dollars. When you sign up from Australia your account is set to AUD automatically, and your plan is invoiced in AUD.
Can Australian guests pay by card when they book?
Yes. Connect your own Stripe or Square account and guests pay deposits, tickets, gift cards and memberships in AUD. The money goes straight to your account. Every card form shows the eftpos routing notice Stripe requires for Australian businesses.
Can I add GST to my bookings?
Yes. In Tax Settings you name the tax GST, set the rate to 10% and choose whether your prices already include it. Guests see GST at checkout and can open a tax invoice afterwards, labelled with your ABN.
Do I need to change anything for the card surcharge ban?
Not in BookingNinja. Card surcharges are banned from 1 October 2026, and BookingNinja has never added one to your bookings, so there's nothing to turn off. Check your own menus and terms for any card fee you added yourself.
When can I get hold of support from Australia?
Monday to Friday, 6am to 2pm AWST, by WhatsApp, email or live chat from your dashboard. Most questions are answered by the same small team that builds BookingNinja.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free Forever plan has every feature and no monthly fee. You get 75 bookings a month that carry no payment, and after that each booking takes a payment with a small booking fee added at the guest's checkout.
Does it work for play centres and cafés as well as restaurants?
Yes. Australian venues on BookingNinja include restaurants, a winery restaurant, a karaoke bar and a play café. Table bookings, timed sessions with adult and child pricing, and ticketed events all run from the same account.
