(Such pament will be defined here and thereafter as “Room Price”). 

4.4.3 The Accommodation Facility declares that is has understood and agrees that Bookingbility Srl may from time to time use the Agency Model with Payment Managed by Bookingbility Srl (including other methods of payment (online), such as virtual credit cards) (i) for the payments/advance payments of the Room Price or for deposit payments made by the Guest to the Accommodation Facility through the Payment Manager, and (ii) for the balance and payment of the Commission due and payable (including the costs of collecting, transferring, conversion and payment of the funds) through the following methods: compensation between the Commission due and payable and other potential amounts due to the Accommodation Facility in dispute with Bookingbility Srl, and the total amount of every price associated with the Room Price managed by the Payment manager. If the funds are insufficient to pay and adjust the payment of all amounts due to Bookingbility Srl, Bookingbility Srl will be authorized to collect the difference through SDD (ex RID) (Sepa Direct Debit), if available, or Deposit, is available. Alternatively, the Accommodation Facility will have to pay the difference, at the request of Bookingbility Srl, via deposit in the bank account as indicated by Bookingbility Srl. 

4.4.4 The Accommodation Facility acknowledges and agrees that it is, at any time, responsible for the collection, transfer, withholding and the payments in dispute with the tax authorities for the relevant taxes, levies, additional charges or applicable surcharges to the Room Price (including taxes, levies, additional charges or surcharges not included in the Room Price), and for the transferring, the withholding and the payment (as expected) to the relevant tax authorities of the fees charged to the Commissions. Unless Bookingbility Srl has indicated that specific taxes, levies, extra costs or additional services (for example, breakfast) or other amounts not included in the Room Price (the “Exclusive Amenities”), the Accommodation Facility will not charge additional amounts to the guest, nor will it request payments or collect any other amount from the Guest that does not already include the Room Price (except the Exclusive Amenities, if any). 

4.4.5 Upon completion of the transfer of the amount to be received (resulting from the deduction of the Commission due and payable and any other potential amounts due to Bookingbility Srl), the Accommodation Facility will have to provide to Bookingbility Srl the banking data on which payment will be made. The payment of the Room Price will be made approximately 2 weeks before the check-in date of the stay referred to in the Room Price (the “Payment Data”) or at a later date, if the Payment Manager has not yet received the total amount of the Room Price. In this case, the payment will be made within 5 business days of receipt of the total price of the Room Price (unless otherwise specified by Bookingbility Srl). The Accommodation Facility acknowledges that the first payment will only be made upon receipt of the first booking. Bookingbility Srl may suspend payments at any time and without notice in real, alleged, suspected cases of terms violation, fraudulent use of credit card or other type of fraud. The Accommodation Facility declares that it understands and agrees that due to fluctuations in exchange rates and due to the charges applied by banks, credit card companies, and other intermediaries (for the collection, processing and payment of funds), there may be differences between the Room Price (as charged in the system from the Accommodation Facility), the amount collected and the amount paid by the Accommodation Facility. The Accommodation Facility will have to carry the risk associated with the currency exchange, and the cost and taxes applied by the credit card issuers and collection banks, processing and the conversion of the Room Price. The funds withheld by the Payment Manager o by another party for and on behalf of the Facility, will not generate interest. 

4.4.6 In the event of cancelled charge, or failed charge or collection of the Price (total or partial) of the Room (event that remains at the expense and risk of the Accommodation Facility), Bookingbility Srl will use commercial means to ask the Guest to provide the an alternative payment method. If the Guest is unable or refusing to provide an alternative payment methods for the reimbursement, or in the event of a cancellation of the charge, Bookingbility Srl will have the right to (a) cancel the booking and promptly inform the Accommodation Facility, or (b) inform the Accommodation Facility and cancel the booking upon request of the Facility. In case of cancellation, the Commissions will be charged in accordance with Clause 4.4.8. The Accommodation Facility acknowledges and agrees that Bookingbility Srl will use commercial means to ensure the Room Price is collected in accordance with the specific payments terms of the booking, as made available on the Platform. However, Bookingbility Srl will not be subject to any kind of collection obligation (either judicial or extrajudicial) or of payment of the Room Price (or of any potential interest or taxes on collection). In the event the Payment Manager has failed to collect (partially or totally) at the time of the booking or at any other date when the remaining amount had to be paid, depending on the relevant terms of payment or prepayment (if provided), the missing collection, reimbursement or cancellation of the charge (totally or partially) of the Room Price (each of them considered as “Payment Issue”) will be at the expense and risk of the Accommodation Facility and, in case of a Payment Issue, the Accommodation Facility waives the right to ask Bookingbility Srl or the Payment Manager the payment of the Room Price (or the remaining part). In the event that a Guest has been subject to a cancelled charge, or in the event that Bookingbility Srl is required to make a partial or total reimbursement of the Room Price by law, by order of the court, for inquiry or natural government order (semi), by decision for arbitration (or other similar authority), by lawsuit or in accordance with the conditions of cancellation, Bookingbility Srl reserves the right to request Accommodation Facility the return of the amount (paid) by the Guest (and received from the Accommodation Facility). 

4.4.7 In so far as the Accommodation Facility agrees with the refund (total or partial) of the Room Price (or part of it) relating to a non-refundable booking, Bookingbility Srl will be entitled to recover the amount paid to the Guest by drawing the other amounts collected by the Payment Manager, or - if requested by the Accommodation Facility and following the approval of Bookingbility Srl - the above amount will be paid and transferred to Bookingbility Srl within 14 days from the date of approval by Bookingbility Srl. 

4.4.8 In the event of a no-show or a cancellation, Bookingbility Srl will be entitled to charge the Commissions relevant to the Room Price collected and transferred to the Accommodation Facility. In the event of overbooking, the Commissions will be calculated in accordance to Clause 2.3.2.

4.4.9 The Accommodation Facility will issue an invoice to the Guest (upon request of the same) for the total amount of the booking, including or by adding (as requested by the applicable regulations) all taxes, levies and additional surcharges.
