5. Additional terms for Space Seekers

5.1 When you request to book a Space, you authorise the Payment Provider to send a pre-authorisation request to your card issuer for the amount of your booking. Your card issuer will place a hold on the funds until your booking request is either accepted or rejected by the Space Manager.

5.2 You authorise the Payment Provider to charge your credit card or other valid payment system the total fees for any booking you request (including any security deposit required by the Space Manager and any applicable taxes and charges required by law). The Payment Provider will collect fees from you when your booking request is confirmed on the Platform or as soon as possible after that time. We will send you a confirmation email when the payment transaction for your requested booking is complete.

5.3 If you cancel or modify your booking in accordance with the Spacely Terms and Conditions, any refund due to you will be paid to your nominated credit card. You authorise the Payment Provider to charge your nominated credit card in respect of any additional amounts due by you as a result of modifying your booking.

5.4 If you occupy a Space beyond your booking period, you authorise the Payment Provider to charge your nominated credit card for the amount of reasonable overstay charges, which will reflect the price of the Space, the length of the overstay and any administrative or other costs incurred by us or the Space Manager. We will determine the amount of these overstay charges.

5.5 If you damage a Space, and either you agree that you are responsible for the damage, or we determine, acting reasonably, that you are responsible for the damage, you authorise the Payment Provider to charge your nominated credit card for the amount of any security deposit. This is in addition to any other rights the Space Manager has against you at law and any other action we may take in accordance with our Agreement with you.

5.6 If payment due by you in accordance with these Terms cannot be collected from you, we may take lawful action to recover amounts owed by you, including to recover the costs of collection.
