Understanding Failed Payments and Payment Options for Luggage Storage

Updated over 10 months ago

At LuggageHero, we strive to ensure a smooth payment process for our customers. In this article, we will explain the options available to customers in case of a failed payment and provide important guidelines for partners regarding accepting payments.

In this article

Customer Payment Options:

  1. Retry Processing Payment on First Credit Card: In the event of a failed payment, customers can retry processing the payment on the first credit card they initially submitted.

    This option often succeeds and provides a convenient way to complete the transaction. A check-out confirmation email will be sent to the storage manager when the online payment succeeds.

  2. Add Another Credit Card: Alternatively, customers can add another credit card to their account and retry processing the payment for their booking. This allows customers to use a different payment method and ensure a successful transaction.

Customer Direct payment:

  • If the payment process fails again, customers will get an option to "Pay directly." This will indicate that payment for luggage storage can be accepted in the shop.

  • The total amount for the luggage storage will be displayed on the orange pick-up confirmation screen after the option "Pay directly" has been chosen. The customer can reopen the confirmation screen from the booking page.

Booking Status and Payment Deductions:

  • A booking with a failed payment will be marked as "Paid in shop" in our system. This status indicates that payment was made at the storage location.

  • The total amount from failed payments will be deducted from the monthly payout to the partner. It is advised to receive the payment for a booking that cannot be paid online directly at the shop.

Important:

  • Receiving cash payments for luggage storage bookings made through LuggageHero.com is strictly prohibited unless otherwise advised by the LuggageHero App.

  • The pick-up confirmation screen will be displayed after the storage timer stops and indicates the payment method and status.
