1UP Arcade - Terms and Conditions of Membership & Entry

Membership Agreement

All access to 1UP Arcade (including day-pass access) is membership-based, regardless of duration, and is governed by this Agreement, which incorporates the following Terms and Conditions of Membership & Entry and the Privacy Policy.

Accepting this Agreement does not automatically entitle you to access or membership, as applications are subject to further review by 1UP Arcade.

1UP Arcade reserves the right to change, amend or update this policy at any time without notice.

Your membership permits you to access the 1UP Arcade premises, facilities, equipment and services as defined and/or limited by this agreement and your membership duration. Only public areas of 1UP Arcade are open for access by members. Staff-only areas and equipment are not available to members unless individually authorised by a qualified staff member.

Payments and Fees

All membership types must be paid in advance either directly for immediate activation ('in-store') or through our gift certificate programme. No access will be granted to any member, non-member or visitor who does not have an active, fully paid membership.

You agree to pay all fees as set out in this Agreement when necessary or required. The current amounts for all fee types are available in-store or online unless otherwise listed below.

  • Day-Pass Membership Fee
  • Weekly (7-day) Membership Fee
  • Monthly (30-day) Membership Fee
  • Quarterly (90-day) Membership Fee
  • Membership Card Replacement Fee ($5.00)
  • Bank Dishonour Fee or Chargeback Fee ($30.00)
  • Breakage Fee (see Equipment section)

All fees are in Australian Dollars (AUD)

1UP Arcade reserves the right to change the membership fees at any time, or to provide discounted membership types as a part of a promotion or other special marketing event. Existing members are not entitled to retroactive discounts or reimbursements on active memberships for any fees already paid.

Minimum Age

Minors aged under 14 must be accompanied at all times by a parent or guardian over the age of 16.

Minors aged under 16 must have their parents consent to apply for memberships greater than a sigle day-pass.

Minors aged under 18 may not be entitled to access all game titles. Titles restricted by age classification or reasonably defined by 1UP Arcade as unsuitable for children will not be made available to minors without the ongoing, in-person consent of a parent or adult-age guardian.

Staffed access

Members may only access the 1UP Arcade premises, equipment and facilities during staffed business hours as outlined on our website. No unsupervised or unstaffed access is permitted at any time on any Membership type.

Members are permitted in any public or member-only areas during business hours when they hold a valid membership or day-pass. Staff-only areas are not open to members.

Access by Non-Members

1UP Arcade maintains a public area outside of the main arcade floor whereby visitors, parents, guardians and spectators may wait without paying an entry or membership fee. Some paid facilities and services are available to visitors (such as food and drink).

1UP Arcade also allows special spectator-only access to visitors who are not playing but wish to accompany a member onto the main arcade floor. Non-playing spectators will receive a tamper-proof wristband which must be visible at all times. Wrist bands which are soiled, damaged, cut or otherwise tampered with are considered invalid.

Non-playing spectators are subject to this Agreement as it pertains to access, conduct, safety and risk.

Any non-member who is observed playing, or is reasonably suspected of playing, any of the machines on the arcade floor will be required to leave the membership-only areas or pay for membership to continue playing.

Check-in, Check-out and Pass-outs

Members are asked to check-in when they arrive at 1UP Arcade and check-out upon leaving. All members (excluding day-pass holders) are issued an Access Card with a unique barcode. This card, once activated and issued, can be used to check-in and -out electronically.

The membership card may also be used to review your membership expiry online.

Day Pass holders receive a receipt as a proof of purchase in addition to a coded hand-stamp for pass-outs. Day-pass holders are asked to check-in and -out without scanning the barcode.

Staff are available to assist all visitors with the checking procedure.

Check-in and check-out only takes a second, and helps 1UP Arcade keep a track of numbers during emergencies as well as improve provision of services during busy periods.

Physical Condition

Members are required to use their own judgement when using equipment. It is their sole responsibility to ensure the use of any and all equipment and facilities does not adversely affect any medical conditions they may have.

Members declare that, to the best of their knowledge, they do not have any physical, medical or other disability or condition which may be affected or aggravated by their use of the 1UP Arcade equipment, facilities or services.

Members are also required to ensure that their physical condition does not adversely affect the ability for other members to access and enjoy the equipment, facilities and services 1UP Arcade provides.

1UP Arcade reserves the right to eject an individual from the premises if their physical condition or conduct is deemed to negatively impact others.

This requires the express consent of both the original membership holder and the recipient, both of whom should be present at the time of the transfer. Transfers can only be completed in-store.
