For the purposes of this Contract, “payment” is defined as the successful receipt of funds by LUXJB, in full and cleared, through an approved payment method. In cases where a payment attempt is made by RENTER (e.g., via credit card), but funds are delayed, flagged, or otherwise held by the payment processor, such payment shall not be considered complete until LUXJB has successfully received and confirmed the availability of the full amount. Should RENTER fail to complete payment in cleared funds within twenty-four (24) hours of signing, LUXJB reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to cancel the reservation without prior notice. In the event of cancellation, LUXJB shall have no obligation to refund any portion of amounts previously paid by RENTER, regardless of whether such payments were partial or in full.
