Placing an order
When you place an order on our website available at www.nswactbaptists.org.au/ccli, you should receive an acknowledgement e-mail confirming receipt of your order.
We only accept and finalise your order once payment has been received by us by debiting your credit card, receiving payment in our bank account by EFT, or cheque with correct reference details. Payments with incorrect or insufficient referencing cannot be processed and will result in a refund once identified. This may result in not making the due date and missing out on the discount.
Due date
Orders must be placed on our website and payment received by us by 22 September 2024. Unfortunately, we cannot accept late applications due to deadlines from our suppliers, and so any late payments will be refunded to your church. It is then up to your church to contact Heritage Films and CCLI for licenses that your church need.

CCLI licenses will contact all churches who do not respond on time to ensure that the church will not require licenses going forward as this is a legal licensing requirement by CCLI.
Queries
All queries should be sent to ccli@nswactbaptists.org.au and we will get back to you within 3 working days. Due to the volume of queries, we are unable to answer these over the phone.
