Any support request can be resolved through video tutorials and the Bloobiz Help Center.
In exchange for the services, the Customer agrees to pay a monthly fee as defined in the contract and based on the number of authorized users. As long as the Contract is valid, if the Customer has more authorized users than specified at the time of signing it, the Customer agrees to pay an additional fee equivalent to the applicable prevailing rate for additional users, for the remainder of the term. Luxembourg Online shall invoice the Service under the applicable prices and rates under contract, plus any applicable taxes at the rate in effect when the invoice is issued. Invoicing shall begin upon the date of activation of the services as determined by Luxembourg Online. The first month’s subscription fee for the Services shall be prorated for the number of days. Invoices are issued monthly.
The Customer will be informed of any change in the rates at least one month before it is applied. In case of an unfavorable change for the Customer, the latter can terminate the contract within one month following the delivery of the first invoice at a new rate. If the Customer fails to terminate the Contract within this period, the Customer is presumed to have accepted the new rate. Any subscription to additional services not stated in this contract will give rise to additional invoicing in addition to the amount indicated in the Price List.
The parties agree that invoices shall be sent by e-mail, with Luxembourg Online’s files as proof of dispatch. If the Customer finds that he has not received an invoice, he shall be obliged to request it.
The invoiced amounts are owed in euros upon receipt of the invoice by direct debit to a credit card (Visa, Eurocard/MasterCard, American Express) or via the Saferpay interface. The expiration of a 30-day period after issuing the invoice shall automatically put the Customer in default of payment. However, Luxembourg Online will send a reminder after 30 days and invoice the Customer for a fixed fee (specified in the Luxembourg Online price list). Interest on arrears, calculated according to the law of March 29, 2013, on payment periods and interest on arrears, will be applied by Luxembourg Online as of right after the payment period stipulated in the said law has expired.
Luxembourg Online reserves the right to suspend (block) after 8 days upon an unsuccessful reminder, without notice of default or compensation, the service(s) provided to the customer in case of non-payment of an invoice by the payment deadline.
Blocking does not suspend in any way the customer’s obligations under a contract (especially the invoicing of the subscription). A blocking fee will be invoiced to the Customer according to the conditions specified in the Price List.
A complaint relating to an invoice is only admissible within one month following its issuing date and only if it is submitted by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt. After this period, the complaint cannot be processed and no compensation can be granted (except in cases of force majeure duly reported by the customer). Submitting a complaint does not exempt the Customer from the payment of the non-contested amounts.

In particular, any information relating to the business, products, developments, trade secrets, know-how, personnel, customers and suppliers of either, and suppliers of either party shall be considered confidential.
