6. Account Types and subscriptions
Lilo offers two types of accounts to accommodate the needs of our hotel partners: Basic and Pro.
Basic Account: The Basic Account is offered free of charge and is designed to provide hotels with access to purchase products and services exclusively from Lilo Premium Vendors.
Pro Account: The Pro Account is designed for hotels seeking a comprehensive suite of features, including but not limited to, the ability to add multiple users, connect their accounts to their own selected vendors, and receive up to 4% cashback from purchases made through Lilo Premium Vendors. Fees for Pro Accounts are determined on a case-by-case basis, taking into account factors such as hotel size, location, and contract size.
Subscription Fees and Period
Pro Account access is subject to fees agreed upon on a one-to-one basis. Subscription fees are billed in advance and may be on a recurring and periodic basis, which will be agreed upon during the subscription setup process.
At the end of each billing period, Pro Account subscriptions will automatically renew under the same conditions unless the hotel opts to cancel or modify the subscription in accordance with the cancellation policy outlined below.
Subscription Cancellations
Pro Account holders may cancel Subscriptions at any time, provided that there are more than 5 business days prior to the end of the current billing cycle. In the event that a Subscription is terminated within 5 business days prior to the end of the current billing cycle, the Subscription will remain active until the end of the following cycle. There will be no refunds issued for fees already paid for the current subscription period, but access to Pro Account features will continue until the end of the current billing cycle.
Except as required by law, subscription fees are non-refundable. Lilo may, at its sole discretion, consider refund requests on a case-by-case basis.
Billing
Account holders are required to provide Lilo with accurate and complete billing information including full name, address, contact number, and a valid payment method.
In the event of a billing failure, Lilo will issue an electronic invoice requiring manual payment within a specified deadline, corresponding to the upcoming billing period as indicated on the invoice.
Fee Changes
Lilo reserves the right to modify subscription fees for Pro Accounts at any time. Any change in subscription fees will be effective at the end of the current billing period.
Lilo will provide reasonable prior notice of any changes in subscription fees to allow account holders the opportunity to cancel their subscription before any changes take effect.
Continued use of the Pro Account after a subscription fee change signifies agreement to the new fee structure.
Marketplace Payments
Lilo Premium Vendors Payment Methods. To make a purchase, you must link an approved payment method (such as a credit, ACH information or debit card, but excluding pre-paid cards)) with your Hotel Account. Approved payment methods may vary by region. By submitting payment details in conjunction with registering for a Hotel Account and/or purchasing goods, you agree to pay for the goods purchased and any applicable taxes and other fees that may accrue. You authorize Lilo and/or its affiliates to charge the payment method with the information you have supplied to Lilo and/or to credit that payment method to make any necessary adjustments. Lilo reserves the right to correct any errors in pricing. We will charge your default payment method on file in your Hotel Account. If it fails, we reserve the right to charge any other payment method you have included in your Hotel Account.
Payment Processors. Lilo uses third-party service providers for credit card payment processing, fraud alerts, payment processing, and disbursement of funds to Vendors. You acknowledge and agree that Lilo may share information about you with those payment processors to complete the transaction.
Payment Accounts. For purchases from Lilo Vendors, Lilo offers two types of payment accounts depending on the type of Hotel business (as described below): (1) Net 30 Terms Account ("Terms Account"); and (2) Payment on Order Account:
Terms Account. Lilo offers certain Hotels the option to purchase products with a Terms Account. To be eligible for a Terms Account, you must be approved by Lilo. Your account may be reviewed for terms once your first order is placed and before it begins processing. If you are eligible for a Terms Account, then Lilo will not charge your account until invoices are due 30 days after the order is placed. However, you have the option to pay your invoices sooner by logging into your Hotel Account and paying any outstanding invoices. Lilo reserves the right to have spending limits under this type of account. Once you either return the products (if eligible) or pay for the products, your credit balance will decrease. You may request to have your credit limit increased by requesting to do so in your Hotel Account. Any purchases made over the credit limit must be paid upon shipment. You agree that you will not create multiple accounts in an attempt to circumvent spending limits.
Payment on Order Account. If you are not eligible for a Terms Account, you must make payment when the product is shipped by the Vendor. Your method of payment will automatically be charged once the order is placed.
Failure to Make Payment & Payment Plan Program. You acknowledge and agree that if you fail to make timely payment for any goods you ordered through the Services, Lilo may, at its option and without notice to you, demand immediate payment of all outstanding invoices, cancel or suspend orders, suspend or revoke your line of credit, offset monies that may be owed to you, assess late payment penalties at the highest rate allowed by law, and/or temporarily suspend or permanently terminate your Hotel Account. Lilo reserves the right to turn your account over to a collection agency or seek any other legal or equitable remedies available to collect any outstanding debt.
7. Shipping Costs and Lead Times
Shipping Costs. Unless Lilo has authorized free shipping, you are responsible for and agree to pay for all shipping costs displayed on your invoice as well as any customs and/or duties on international orders. Shipping costs will be included in your invoice. Shipping costs will vary depending on the weight of the package and where the package is being shipped from.
Lead Times. You acknowledge that lead times (the time it takes for a Vendor to prepare and ship a product) vary. Average lead times are displayed on the Vendor's page and/or when the product is in your cart. If any order takes longer than 2 weeks to ship, your invoice due date and return window (if applicable) are automatically extended by 2 weeks. Once the Vendor accepts the order, the expected ship date will be updated in your Hotel Account. You will receive a notice once the product has shipped, giving you a tracking number and letting you know the cost of shipping. This information is also available in your Hotel Account.
8. Returns, Refunds, Cancellations
Returns. At the moment, Lilo offers no returns placed with any Vendor.
Refunds and Cancellations. If you receive a product that is damaged, the shipment includes missing items, or you do not receive the product by the expected ship date, you must report the issue within 14 days of receiving the product to Lilo and the Vendor. You agree that if you do not timely report the issue, the product shall be deemed delivered and satisfactory.
Lilo reserves the right to accept or reject any missing or damaged report filed by a Hotel in its sole reasonable discretion, including in the event Lilo suspects any fraudulent activity. Lilo's decision whether to accept a damaged or missing claim shall be final.
9. Product Content
Limited License. Lilo displays various Content related to the products, including photographs, product descriptions, Vendor stories, and any other related content for sale on its Services. You are granted a limited, revocable license to use Content related to a product that you purchase on the Services on your own hotel's website for the sole purpose of reselling that same product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that you will not use any such Content in any ad or media campaign, including postings, emails, ads, or any other communication on Facebook, Instagram, or Google, among others, without the express written consent from the owner of that Content.
You acknowledge and agree that you are merely a licensee of the Content and that you do not own, and will not claim any ownership rights in, the Content. You further acknowledge and agree that Lilo is not responsible, nor shall Lilo be held liable, for any Content, and Lilo makes no representation or warranty that the Content does not infringe, misappropriate, or violate a third party's patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, moral rights, or other intellectual property rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or contain libelous or otherwise unlawful, abusive, harassing, or obscene material, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation.
10. Disputes
For any disputes regarding an order or product from a Vendor, you agree to try to informally resolve the dispute directly with the Vendor using Lilo Messenger. Vendors are primarily responsible for resolving concerns about their products. If you are unable to reach a resolution, contact Lilo for assistance. You agree that Lilo has no duty or obligation to resolve any issue you have with a Vendor, and you hereby release Lilo from any and all liability relating to any dispute you have with a Vendor.
11. Indemnity
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold Lilo, and its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, successors, and assigns, and each of their owners, members, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, contractors, subcontractors, licensors, service providers, and third-party content providers harmless from any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, and fees (including reasonable legal and accounting fees) made by any third party due to or arising out of your violation of these Hotel Terms, the General Terms, and/or any law or the rights of a third party, and/or your use of or participation on the Services.
12. Termination
If you breach any of these Hotel Terms, Lilo reserves the right to temporarily suspend or permanently terminate your Hotel Account, these Hotel Terms, and/or the General Terms in its sole discretion and without prior notice to you.
