If we have agreed to pay you the total face value of FIXR Tickets sold by us on the Platform for an Event and / or any other payments owed by us to you in advance of an Event taking place, we shall endeavour to do so in accordance with reasonable and timely requests by you or in accordance with an agreed payment schedule, however we reserve the right to immediately suspend or stop any and all advance payments to you in our complete discretion, including where we believe an Event might be cancelled, postponed or re-scheduled or where we believe your credit profile, or the risk profile of your Events, has changed.

You will not raise invoices for transactions covered by this paragraph 6.8. You agree to keep us updated if your VAT registration status or VAT number changes.

6.10 We will pay all payment-card processing charges incurred in the Customer transaction and will not charge you for these unless otherwise agreed.
6.11.

Prior to making such payment, we shall be entitled to make deductions or deferments in respect of any disputes or claims whatsoever with or against you.
6.12. We reserve the right to retain a certain percentage of the face value of FIXR Tickets sold through the Platform to your Event(s) and any other fees for services provided by us to you (with such percentage being determined by us in our sole discretion) to fund a reserve: (i) at any time as we determine in our discretion to be necessary based upon the level (or expected level) of refunds, disputed charges, chargebacks, Customer complaints, allegations of fraud or changes in your credit profile or the underlying risk profile of your Event(s) including the risk that Events are cancelled, postponed or re-scheduled; and (ii) as otherwise necessary to secure the performance of your obligations under these Terms, or to protect us against fraudulent or erroneous activity, including any fraudulent activity by Customers attending your Event(s). This includes the situation where Customers attend your Event(s), or where an Event is cancelled, postponed or re-scheduled, and then they subsequently cancel debit / credit card purchases of FIXR Tickets where there is no legitimate reason for them to do so. Our right to hold a reserve will continue after completion of the applicable Event(s) and until either: (i) you have discharged all obligations under these Terms or other applicable agreement for services provided by us and we are satisfied that an applicable period for refunds, disputed charges, chargebacks, and complaints has passed; or (ii) you have otherwise provided us with adequate security (as determined by us in our discretion) for your obligations under these Terms or other applicable agreement for services provided by us. If the exercise of our Set-Off right (as defined below) does not fully cover the amount of funds due and owing from you to us under these Terms or other applicable agreement for services provided by us, then such amount of funds will be deemed due and owing to us until you have satisfied the amount in full.
6.13. Any debit or credit card chargebacks, refund charges or other transaction reversals incurred by us for any reason (except to the extent they are caused solely by our negligence or willful misconduct) with respect to your Event(s) and all related debit / credit card association, payment processing, re-presentment, penalty and other fees and expenses incurred by us in connection with such will ultimately be your responsibility, and you agree to promptly and fully reimburse us for all such amounts (including, without limitation, the total face value of tickets, total booking fees and ticket protection fees thereon and chargeback fees) on demand, including by way of direct invoice to you. Where necessary, we will withhold payment to you of the proceeds from FIXR Tickets (whether for prior or future Events) and exercise our right of set-off to discharge our liabilities arising from any and all of the above listed charges, fees or losses we incur ("Set-Off") with respect to your Event(s) (except to the extent they are caused solely by our negligence or willful misconduct). We will use reasonable efforts to manage the re-presentment of chargebacks and reversals on your behalf and you hereby authorise us to do so and agree to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with us in respect of such re-presentment. However, we will have no obligation to re-present any chargeback that we believe in our discretion it is more likely than not to lose or that relates to a transaction that should be refunded in accordance with our Cancellations and Refunds Policies. You agree that our loss of any chargeback that has been re-presented by us will not in any way limit your obligation to reimburse us under this paragraph.
6.14. All payments to Event Organisers are subject to our Cancellations and Refunds Policy. In particular, FIXR will only process refunds where we have enough funds on account to do. If you have been paid ticket sales proceeds and refunds are required, you must either remit funds back to us so that we can process refunds on your behalf, or you will need to make refunds to Customers directly. FIXR disclaims all responsibility for making refunds unless there is proven technology error on our part and we have enough funds on account to process these. If you do not refund Customers directly and do not remit funds back to us to enable refunds, and Customers proceed to cancel ticket purchases with their bank or card company, it is likely that FIXR will not be able to reverse this cancellation. You agree to fully indemnify FIXR for any losses suffered as a result, including (i) the full face-value of the ticket purchases which are cancelled (if you have not remitted funds back to us); (ii) any dispute or chargeback fees imposed on us by our payment partner; and (iii) the booking fees and any ticket protection fees on the cancelled ticket purchases. We may recover such losses by way of direct invoice or by withholding any ticket sales proceeds payable to you.
