Statement will show what we owe the Service Provider (if anything) in respect of Fulfilled bookings in the period since the last Statement. It will also show what the Service Provider owes us in respect of Fees (if any) since the last Statement (e.g. Commission, subscription, etc) such amounts to be deducted from any amount owing by us (if any) and the resulting account balance (the “Closing Balance”) payable by the Service Provider to OK Who’s Next?

If the Closing Balance is negative, OK Who’s Next? will transfer the closing balance to the Service Provider within 3 to 5 Business Days of the date of the Statement and no further action in respect of that Statement will be required by the Service Provider.

If the Closing Balance is positive, the Service Provider will be required to transfer the closing balance to OK Who’s Next? within 14 days of the date of the Statement to the account details listed in the Statement by whichever means the Service Provider chooses out of those made available by OK Who’s Next? at the relevant time and which may include any and all of bank transfer, credit card, direct debit mandate and/or recurring payment set-up. If the Service Provider has any concerns regarding the Statement or its ability to transfer the closing balance within the required timeframe, the Service Provider should contact OK Who’s Next? as soon as possible.

If the Closing Balance is zero, the Statement will state that the closing balance is settled and there is nothing further for OK Who’s Next? or the Service Provider to do in respect of that Statement.

OK Who’s Next? receives pre-payments from Service Users as the Service Providers commercial booking agent and the Service Users debt to the Service Provider in respect of that shall be discharged when any pre-payment is received by OK Who’s Next?

Unless otherwise agreed in writing between us and the Service Provider, any onward payment of amounts collected by us and due to the Service Provider will be strictly subject to the Service Provider having provided its services pursuant to a booking in accordance with this Agreement;

For the avoidance of doubt, payment in respect of bookings (including voucher bookings) will only be made by us if the Service Provider correctly inserts the unique booking code or booking reference in respect of that booking into OK Who’s Next? website.

The Service Provider shall make all payments due to OK Who’s Next? without any deduction whether by way of set-off, withholding, counterclaim, discount or otherwise. If any sum due from the Service Provider to us under these terms is not paid on or before the due date for payment, all sums owing by the Service Provider to us shall become due and payable immediately and without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to us , we shall be entitled to:

suspend or terminate the provision of our services and this Agreement, including disabling the Service Providers listing and/or pages on the Website and App, until arrangements as to payment or credit have been established which are satisfactory to OK Who’s Next?

charge the Service Provider the cost of obtaining judgment or payment, to include all reasonable professional costs (including legal fees) and other costs of issuing proceedings or otherwise pursuing a debt recovery procedure; and

where the Service provider has multiple venues with OK Who’s Next? offset the sums due from Service Provider to OK Who’s Next? against payments due by us to the Service Provider in relation to those other venues.

The Service Provider shall be responsible for any refunds, chargebacks, banking charges or other administrative expenses (“Bank Charges”) incurred by us as a result of the Service Providers failure to notify us in advance of changes in payment details and/or arrangements, including but not limited to:

bank account details

cancellation of a direct debit mandate

insufficient funds

card expiry

We reserve the right to deduct any sums payable to us by the Service Partner and any such Bank Charges, from any balance collected by us on behalf of the Service Provider, prior to onward payment of any Closing Balance to the Service Provider.

The Service Provider hereby grants permission and a continuous authorisation for the settlement of outstanding amounts owed by the Service Provider to us (such as but not limited to: Sign-Up Fees, Processing Fee, and Commission etc) via direct debit, meaning an instruction given by the Service Provider to its bank such that OK Who’s Next? is authorised to collect outstanding amounts directly from the bank account of the Service Provider.

All payments due from OK Who’s Next? to the Service Provider shall be made via bank transfer using the bank details provided by the Service Provider to OK Who’s Next? (and as set out in the Statement) and it is the Service Providers responsibility to ensure that these details are correct. We will only make payments due to the Service Provider directly to the Service Provider and cannot make payments to any third party. The Service Provider shall fully indemnify us and hold us harmless against any losses, damages or claims arising out of the Service Providers failure to notify us of a change of bank account details including but not limited to any bank charges incurred by us as a result.

We reserve the right to charge interest on all amounts payable to us from the Service Provider which are not paid by the relevant due date at the annual rate of 4% above the official base rate from time to time of the Bank of Ireland. Such interest will accrue on a daily basis from the date on which payment became overdue up to the date on which we receive the full outstanding amount together with all accrued interest.

In the event of a dispute between us and the Service Provider, any undisputed amount of Commission will be paid in accordance with the previous section. The Service Provider must notify us of its disagreement within 14 days of receipt of any Statement setting out in detail the reason. If the Service Provider fails to do so, the Statement shall be deemed accepted by the Service Provider.

The Service Provider is responsible for withholding and reporting taxes applicable to any commission in accordance with all applicable laws and the requests of the relevant tax authorities, including for any interest and penalties imposed for late payment or failure to withhold. If required, the Service Provider shall be solely responsible for agreeing with the relevant tax authorities on the tax treatment of any commission. The Service Provider shall at the request of OK Who’s Next? provide copies of tax payment certificates and/or tax exemption certificates. The Service Provider represents and warrants that it is duly registered with all relevant tax authorities, where applicable.

The Service Provider understands and acknowledges that OK Who’s Next? acts as commercial booking agent and does not provide any services or products offered by a Service Provider to any Service User. The contract for the Service Providers’ services is between the Service Provider and the Service User and as a result, it is the Service Providers responsibility, if the Service Provider is VAT registered, to charge VAT on the total value of the booking and to provide a VAT receipt to the Service user, if requested. OK Who’s Next? only charges VAT to the Service User on the Commission(if any), in consideration for the provision of our Services.

In the event of fraudulent or alleged fraudulent activities by the Service Provider or if we are required by law, court order, governmental instruction, arbitrational decision or by our cancellation policy to make a refund, of all or part of a booking, we reserve the right to claim repayment from the Service Provider of any amount required to be repaid by OK Who’s Next? to the Service User and for any Bank Charges relating thereto.
