The fees displayed in each Listing are comprised of the Product and Service Fees (defined below) and the Guest Fees (defined below.) Where applicable, Taxes may be charged in addition to the Product and Service Fees and Guest Fees. The Product and Service Fees, the Guest Fees and applicable Taxes are collectively referred to in these Terms as the “Total Fees”. The amounts due and payable by a Guest solely relating to a Provider’s Product and Service are the Product and Service Fees. Please note that it is the Provider and not TRYTN that determines the “Product and Service Fees”. The Product and Service Fee may include a cleaning fee, at the Provider’s discretion.
TRYTN charges a fee to Guests based upon a percentage of applicable Product and Service Fees that are the “Guest Fees”. The Guest Fees are added to the Product and Service Fees to calculate the Total Fees (which will also include applicable Taxes) displayed in the applicable Listing. TRYTN will collect the Total Fees at the time of Booking confirmation (i.e. when the Provider confirms the Booking within 24 hours of the Booking request) and will initiate payment of the Product and Service Fees (less TRYTN’s Provider Fees (defined below)) to the Provider within 24 hours of when the Guest uses the Product and Service (except to the extent that a refund is due to the Guest).
Appointment of TRYTN as Payment Agent for Provider
Each Provider hereby appoints TRYTN as the Provider’s limited agent solely for the purpose of collecting payments made by Guests on behalf of the Provider. Each Provider agrees that payment made by a Guest to TRYTN shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to the Provider and the Provider will make the Product and Service available to Guest in the agreed upon manner as if the Provider has received the Product and Service Fees. Each Provider agrees that, TRYTN may, in accordance with the cancellation policy selected by the Provider and reflected in the relevant Listing, (i) permit the Guest to cancel the Booking and (ii) refund to the Guest that portion of the Product and Service Fees specified in the applicable cancellation policy. In accepting appointment as the limited authorized agent of the Provider, TRYTN assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Provider.
Please note that TRYTN does not currently charge fees for the creation of Listings. However, you acknowledge and agree that TRYTN reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge you for and collect fees from you for the creation of Listings. Please note that TRYTN will provide notice of any fee changes with advance notice through the Site or through direct communication such as e-mail.
Bookings and Financial Terms for Guests
The Providers, not TRYTN, are solely responsible for honoring any confirmed Bookings and making available any Product and Services reserved through the Site. If you, as a Guest, choose to enter into a transaction with a Provider for the Booking of a Product and Service, you agree and understand that you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Provider and you agree to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions associated with such Product and Service imposed by the Provider. You acknowledge and agree that you, and not TRYTN, will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that TRYTN is not a party to such agreements, and that, with the exception of its payment obligations hereunder, TRYTN disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements. You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the fact that TRYTN is not a party to the agreement between you and the Provider, TRYTN acts as the Provider’s payment agent for the limited purpose of accepting payments from you on behalf of the Provider. Upon your payment of amounts to TRYTN that are due to the Provider, your payment obligation to the Provider for such amounts is extinguished, and TRYTN is responsible for remitting such amounts, less TRYTN’s Provider Fees, to the Provider. In the event that TRYTN does not remit any such amounts to a Provider, such Provider will have recourse only against TRYTN.
Listings for Product and Services will specify the Total Fees. If a requested Booking is cancelled, any amounts collected by TRYTN will be refunded to such Guest, depending on the selections the Guest makes via the Site, and any pre-authorization of such Guest’s credit card will be released, if applicable.
You agree to pay TRYTN for the Total Fees for any Booking requested. In order to establish a Booking pending the applicable Provider’s confirmation of your requested Booking, you understand and agree that TRYTN, on behalf of the Provider, reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) obtain a pre-authorization via your credit card for the Total Fees or (ii) charge your credit card a nominal amount, not to exceed one dollar ($1), or a similar sum in the currency in which you are transacting ( e.g. one euro or one British pound) to verify your credit card. Once TRYTN receives confirmation of your Booking from the applicable Provider, TRYTN will collect the Total Fees in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Terms and the pricing terms set forth in the applicable Listing. Please note that TRYTN cannot control any fees that may be charged to a Guest by his or her bank related to TRYTN’s collection of the Total Fees, and TRYTN disclaims all liability in this regard.
In connection with your requested Booking, you will be asked to provide customary billing information such as name, billing address and credit card information either to TRYTN or its third party payment processor. You authorize TRYTN to send instructions to the financial institution that issued your card to take payments from your card account in accordance with the terms and conditions of this agreement.
You agree to pay TRYTN for any confirmed Bookings in accordance with these Terms by the methods described on the Site– e.g. PayPal or credit card. You hereby authorize the collection of such amounts by charging the credit card provided as part of requesting the Booking, either directly by TRYTN or indirectly, via a third party online payment processor or by one of the payment methods described on the Site. You also authorize TRYTN to charge your credit card in the event of damage caused at a Product and Service as contemplated under Damage to Product and Services below and for Security Deposits, if applicable. If you are directed to TRYTN’s third party payment processor, you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party’s service and that third party’s personal information collection practices. Please review such terms and conditions and privacy policy before using the services. Once your confirmed Booking transaction is complete you will receive a confirmation email summarizing your confirmed Booking.
Service Fees
In consideration for providing the Services, TRYTN may collect service fees from Providers and Guests (“Service Fees”). Service Fees are made up of two (2) components: (i) Guest Fees and (ii) a fee that is charged to the Provider based upon a percentage of the amount of the Product and Service Fees (“Provider Fees”). Where applicable, Taxes may also be charged in addition to the Provider Fees. Provider Fees are deducted from the Product and Service Fees before remitting the Product and Service Fees to the Provider, within 24 hours of when the Guest arrives at the applicable Product and Service. Guest Fees are, as noted above, included in the Total Fees.
Balances will be remitted by TRYTN to Providers via check, PayPal, direct deposit or other payment methods described on the Site, in the Provider’s currency of choice, depending upon the selections the Provider makes via the Site. Please note that for any payments by TRYTN in currencies other than U.S. dollars, TRYTN may deduct foreign currency processing costs from such payments. More information on foreign currency processing cost deductions will be available via the Site. Except as otherwise provided herein, Service Fees are non-refundable.
GENERAL BOOKING AND FINANCIAL TERMS
Cancellations and Refunds
If, as a Guest, you cancel your requested Booking before the requested Booking is confirmed by a Provider, TRYTN will cancel any pre-authorization to your credit card and/or refund any nominal amounts charged to your credit card in connection with the requested Booking within a commercially reasonable time. If, as a Guest, you wish to cancel a confirmed Booking made via the Site, either prior to or after arriving at the Product and Service, the cancellation policy of the Provider contained in the applicable Listing will apply to such cancellation. Our ability to refund the Product and Service Fees and other amounts charged to you will depend upon the terms of the applicable cancellation policy. Details regarding refunds and cancellation policies are available via the Site.
If a Provider cancels a confirmed Booking made via the Site, (i) TRYTN will refund the Total Fees for such Booking to the applicable Guest within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation and (ii) the Guest will receive an email or other communication from TRYTN containing alternative Listings and other related information. If the Guest requests a Booking from one of the alternative Listings and the Provider associated with such alternative Listing confirms the Guest’s requested Booking, then the Guest agrees to pay TRYTN the Total Fees relating to the confirmed Booking for the Product and Service in the alternative Listing, in accordance with these Terms. If a Provider cancelled a confirmed Booking and you, as a Guest, have not received an email or other communication from TRYTN, please contact TRYTN at https://www.TRYTN.com/contact.
Recurring Payments
In some instances, Guests may be required to make recurring, incremental payments toward the Total Fees owed for a confirmed Booking before beginning his or her Booking of the applicable Product and Service (collectively, “Recurring Payments”). More information on Recurring Payments will be made available via the Site, if applicable. If Recurring Payments apply to your payment obligations for Total Fees owed for a confirmed Booking, you authorize TRYTN, on behalf of the Provider, to collect the Total Fees in the increments and at the frequency associated with the applicable Recurring Payments, identified on the Site.
Taxes
IRS regulation, regarding federal tax reporting requirements, stipulates that TRYTN must collect IRS Form W-9 from all property owners in the United States. You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining your applicable Tax reporting requirements. TRYTN cannot and does not offer Tax-related advice to any Members of the Site. Additionally, please note that each Provider is responsible for determining local indirect Taxes and for including any applicable Taxes to be collected or obligations relating to applicable Taxes in Listings. Where applicable, or based upon request from a Provider, TRYTN may issue a valid VAT invoice to such Provider.
Foreign Currency
As part of the Services, TRYTN provides a feature through which Members may view Total Fees for various Listings in foreign currencies. You understand and agree that these views of Total Fees are for informational purposes only and are not the official Total Fees for the Listings. If you (as a Guest) request a Booking, you will be notified of the currency in which you will be charged together with the corresponding amount of Total Fees. The currency in which you will be charged will be determined by TRYTN based on the payment method you select and the location of the Product and Service in the Listing you are Booking. If the currency in which you will be charged is different from the currency chosen by the Provider to receive payment, TRYTN will be responsible for the required currency conversion processing, including the costs thereof, which will be calculated based on the most current applicable foreign exchange rate that TRYTN has uploaded to the Site as of the date and time that your Booking is confirmed (the Applicable Exchange Rate). You acknowledge that the Applicable Exchange Rate used for currency conversion processing may not be identical to the applicable market rate in effect at the specific time such processing occurs because: (i) although TRYTN updates the Applicable Exchange Rate on a regular basis, it does not update such rate on a real-time basis; and (ii) the Applicable Exchange Rate may include an incremental cost or margin that is not included in the applicable market rate. For the avoidance of doubt, TRYTN will retain any profits (and will bear any losses) that result from such currency conversion processing due to changes in the applicable foreign exchange rate between the date your Booking is confirmed and the date TRYTN makes payment to a Provider.

INDEMNIFICATION

- your breach of this Agreement or the documents referenced herein;
- your violation of any law or the rights of a third party; or
- your use of this SITE.
BANK AND CREDIT CARD FEES
Some banks and credit cards impose fees for international transactions. If you are making a Booking from outside of the United States on a US credit card, your bank may convert the payment amount to your local currency and charge you a conversion fee. This means the amount listed on your credit or bank card statement may be in your local currency and therefore a different figure than the figure shown on the billing summary page for a Booking booked on the Site. In addition, a foreign transaction fee may be assessed if the bank that issued your credit card is located outside of the United States. Booking international travel may be considered to be an international transaction by the bank or card company, since TRYTN, Inc. may pass on your payment to an international travel supplier. The currency exchange rate and foreign transaction fee is determined solely by your bank on the day that they process the transaction. If you have any questions about these fees or the exchange rate applied to your Booking, please contact your bank.
