Tagvenue Platform allows Users and Venues to connect, communicate and transact directly with each other via Booking Enquiries. Tagvenue may provide Services either online, by email, by telephone or through any other means.

3.2. Users make Bookings and transact directly with Venues. Tagvenue acts only as an intermediary to help advertise Venues, refer Users to Venues and increase your traffic. Any contract, arrangement or agreement is between you and a User. Tagvenue is not a party to nor liable under any contract, arrangement or agreement entered into between Venue Manager and User, nor is Tagvenue a contracting agent, affiliate or insurer. Venue Manager is solely responsible for the quality and integrity of the services and a Room it provides or does not provide to a User.

3.3. Through our Platform, a User can view details, learn about Venues and Rooms, send you Booking Enquiries which you agree to receive as well as make Online Payments for the Bookings.

3.4. Users can find Venues by browsing Venues that registered with us and published their Profiles. or contact Tagvenue through "Contact Us" page, so that a Tagvenue Representative will select or suggest a suitable Venue for a User. In doing so, Tagvenue Representative will take into account the User’s preferences and requirements. Consequently, a User may send you a Booking Enquiry or, if requested by User, a Tagvenue Representative can send you a Booking Enquiry on User’s behalf which you agree to receive.

3.5. You agree that you will respond to Booking Enquiries from Users or Tagvenue Representatives either by replying to or rejecting Booking Enquiries. All Booking Enquiries will be visible and accessible to you when you log in to your Tagvenue account. When responding to any Booking Enquiry you undertake to do so promptly and accurately. Errors in responding to Booking Enquiries will be treated to be in favour of a User.

3.6. Each Booking Enquiry sent to you will have either:

  • a) "New" status if you have not responded to a Booking Enquiry yet;
  • b) "In progress" status if you have responded by either answering questions, by providing further details or a quote or have engaged into a conversation about or negotiation of a potential Booking of any of your Rooms;
  • c) "Requires Finalising" is an automatically marked status for a Booking Enquiry that has previously been “In Progress”, but there was no communication between you and a User for more than 17 calendar days (“Inactive Enquiry”) and a Booking Enquiry with an Event Date that has already passed. You will receive reminders generated by the Platform to update the status of the Booking Enquiry to “Still In Progress” or otherwise as is appropriate.
  • d) "Booking confirmed" status if you have agreed with a User to proceed to a Booking or the event for which a Booking was made has taken place; or
  • e) "Unsuccessful" status if you or the User rejected a Booking Enquiry.

3.7. Once you reply to a Booking Enquiry, a User will receive your contact details that you have made available to us and that are necessary for getting in touch with you in order to negotiate any terms of or making a Booking. A User will then at his or her own discretion contact you with an offer to make a Booking of any of your Rooms, which you can accept or reject. If you decide to accept and proceed to a Booking or the event has already taken place, you must update the status of a relevant Booking Enquiry to “Booking confirmed” in your Tagvenue account.

Use of Payment Processing and Online Payment Method requires a Venue Manager to provide current, accurate and complete information about a Venue and its business and you authorise Tagvenue to share this data with the Payment Processor.

Tagvenue does not control nor is responsible for how your personal information is treated by Stripe.
  • 4.14.3. Tagvenue shall cover the Stripe service fees (“Payment Processing Fees”). If, however, there are any other charges and fees that a Venue is responsible for, you agree to indemnify Tagvenue in full for these charges and fees if such were paid by Tagvenue.

Without prejudice to the above in this clause, Tagvenue shall not assume responsibility for any acts or omissions of a Venue.
  • 4.14.5. Each Member acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding that Tagvenue is not a party to the Agreement and does not act as an agent for any Member, we act as a Venue’s payment collection agent for a sole limited purpose of accepting payments from a User on behalf of a Venue. Once a User makes a payment to Tagvenue through the Payment Processor, a User’s payment obligation to a Venue Manager for the agreed amount is deemed to be discharged and Tagvenue becomes the responsible party for transferring the funds to a Venue Manager (referred to as “Payout” below) subject to the deduction of Tagvenue Commission in accordance to these Terms and Venue’s claim shall only stand against Tagvenue.
  • 4.14.6. You agree that payment made through Online Payment Method by a User shall be considered the same as payment made directly to you. A Venue Manager will provide the services to a User as per the Agreement between Members as if a Venue Manager has received the payment directly from a User.
  • 4.14.7. You agree that Tagvenue may refund a User in accordance with these Terms and you acknowledge that our obligation to make a Payout of funds to you:
    • a) Is subject to and conditional upon successful receipt of the relevant payment from a User as consideration for a given Agreement; and

  • 4.14.8. A User is charged once a Booking is confirmed and the funds in respect of that Agreement are deposited to the Tagvenue Stripe Account where they are held on trust for and on behalf of the Venue. Tagvenue will use our reasonable endeavours to initiate a Payout to a Venue Manager within 3 to 7 working days after the Event end time subject to the agreed terms of the Booking and the service provided by the Venue. Tagvenue or a Payment Processor on Tagvenue’s behalf as the case may be shall deduct the Tagvenue Commission from the total amount paid for the Booking before making a Payout of a balance to the Venue.
  • 4.14.9. If there are any Additional Charges for extending the length of the Booking or other charges associated with exceeding the agreed usage of the Booking by a User, a Venue Manager must report these to Tagvenue within 72 hours after the Booking end time. Following a successful payment from a User, a Payout will then be initiated automatically to your bank account deducting the Commission payment. Depending on when Additional Charges were reported, a Payout may be made separately. Tagvenue will provide assistance in notifying Users of Additional Charges and attempting payment collection, but it does not guarantee the success of such collection or resolve disputes arising from these charges. Pursuant to Clause 3.2 and 13.9, all claims related to unpaid Additional Charges shall be asserted solely against the User.
  • 4.14.10. A Payout can be withheld if a dispute is initiated between a User and a Venue Manager or otherwise permitted by these Terms. Payouts of Additional Charges for overtime or damages, or resulting from a dispute shall be paid within a reasonable time after a dispute is settled. The timing of a payout may be changed if a Booking is updated, cancelled or rescheduled. The time it takes for a Payout to reach a Venue’s account with the Payment Processor is contingent on several factors:
    • a) a Venue Manager providing accurate bank account details,
    • b) the banking provider used by the Venue Manager and
    • c) The User’s method of payment.
  • 4.14.11 Online Payment Method is mandatory:

    • b) Once you enable the Online Payment Method through your Tagvenue Account.
  • 4.14.12 Without prejudice to Clause 4.14.11, processing a refundable security deposit is not currently supported through our Platform and it, therefore, is allowed to be done using another payment method of your preference communicated to your User directly through Tagvenue internal messenger. For the avoidance of doubt, all other payments must be still processed through the Tagvenue Platform.

4.15. As a part of our response to the adverse effects on the event industry in 2020, Tagvenue had made a special offer to a selected and limited number of Venues offering premises in the “Wedding” Events category and which were not previously registered on our Platform (referred to as “Wedding Promotion Venues” below):

6.2. All cancellation periods are calculated based on local time for the Venue.

6.3. If a User has signed an agreement with a Venue Manager for a Booking on customised terms and a User cancels that Booking, then in case of conflict the cancellation policy terms in that agreement will prevail.

6.4. For multi-day and nonconsecutive-day Events, the deadline for cancellation set forth in the applicable cancellation policy shall apply to the Event start time for each day on which the Venue is booked. Where a User cancels a portion of a multi-day Booking, the fees and refunds will only apply to the specific dates cancelled.

6.5. For the purposes of this Section 6 of these Terms, a valid cancellation request shall constitute a User contacting a Venue Manager through the Tagvenue Platform as a follow-up message to the Booking Enquiry. A Booking is considered to be cancelled once Tagvenue sends a cancellation confirmation to the User if the Online Payment Method is enabled or once a Venue Manager sends a confirmation to the User if the Invoice Payment Method is enabled.

6.6. If a Venue Manager having the Online Payments Method enabled for his Venue and/or Rooms has received a cancellation request from a User and a full or partial refund is due to a User, that Venue Manager must contact Tagvenue providing the Booking and its cancellation details. The refunds to Users from that point shall be handled by Tagvenue according to the Venue’s cancellation policy selected at the time of the Booking.

6.7. Any taxes Tagvenue collected in relation to those amounts that are to be refunded to the User shall also be refunded and the non-refundable part of cancelled Booking shall remain taxable.

6.8. If a Venue Manager changes its Booking cancellation policy, it shall not have a retrospective effect on any of its past Bookings. Each Booking will be cancelled according to the Booking cancellation policy selected by the Venue Manager at the time that the Booking was made.

6.9. Users who do not show up to the Event or fail to cancel a Booking will not be eligible to receive a refund.

6.10. For the avoidance of doubt, when no refund is payable to the User following a cancellation, including the event described in Clause 6.9, a Commission to Tagvenue is still payable according to the terms set out in Section 4.

6.11. All Bookings are subject to a grace period of 24 hours after a Booking confirmation was received, provided that a cancellation is made at least 48 hours prior to the date and time of the Event.

6.12. If a Venue Manager cancels a confirmed Booking for any reason, Tagvenue reserves a right in our sole discretion, to fully refund the User and suspend the Venue's Account on the Tagvenue platform disabling an option for it to receive any new Booking Enquiries.

6.13. Without prejudice to Clause 6.12, a Venue Manager that has been awarded a “Super Venue” status and badge according to the Super Venue Terms, shall have its status suspended for 30 days after a Confirmed Booking was cancelled by that Venue.

6.14. Venues may allow Users to reschedule a Booking for free and postpone the Event for up to 12 months period provided:

  • a) A duration of a rescheduled Booking has no material difference to the duration of the original Booking, pursuant to an approval from Venue; and
  • b) Any rescheduled Booking must be confirmed between the parties prior to the date and time of the original Event.

In which case this will not be considered as a cancellation and any deposit or prepayment shall not be affected and shall be applied towards a rescheduled Event.
