As a Member, you may create Listings.

In order to be featured in Listings via the Site, Application and Services, all accommodations must have valid physical addresses. Listings will be made publicly available via the Site, Application and Services.

You understand and agree that once a Guest requests a booking of your Listing, the price for such booking may not be altered.
You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for any and all Listings you post. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the booking of, or Guest stay at, a Listing you post (i) will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties and (ii) will (a) be in compliance with all applicable laws, Tax requirements, and rules and regulations that may apply to any Listing you post, including, but not limited to, zoning laws and laws governing rentals of residential and other properties and (b) not conflict with the rights of third parties.

You understand and agree that Monarch Stays does not act as an insurer or as a contracting agent for you as a Host. If a Guest requests a booking of your Listing and stays at your Listing, any agreement you enter into with such Guest is between you and the Guest and Monarch Stays is not a party thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Monarch Stays serves as the limited authorized agent of the Host for the purpose of accepting payments from Guests on behalf of the Host and is responsible for transmitting such payments to the Host.
When you create a Listing, you may also choose to include certain requirements which must be met by the Members who are eligible to request a booking of your Listing, including, but not limited to, requiring Members to have a profile picture or verified phone number, in order to book your Listing. Any Member wishing to book a Listing with such requirements must meet these requirements. More information on how to set such requirements is available via the “Hosting” section of the Site, Application and Services.
If you are a Host, Monarch Stays makes certain tools available to you to help you to make informed decisions about which Members you choose to confirm for booking for your Listing. You acknowledge and agree that, as a Host, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who reside at or are otherwise present at the Listing at your request or invitation, excluding the Guest (and the individuals the Guest invites to the Listing, if applicable.)
Monarch Stays recommends that Hosts obtain appropriate insurance for their Listings. Please review any insurance policy that you may have for your Listing carefully, and in particular please make sure that you are familiar with and understand any exclusions to, and any deductibles that may apply for, such insurance policy, including, but not limited to, whether or not your insurance policy will cover the actions or inactions of Guests (and the individuals the Guest invites to the Listing, if applicable) while at your Listing.
Bookings and Financial Terms
Bookings and Financial Terms for Hosts
If you are a Host and a booking is requested for your Listing via the Site, Application and Services, you will be required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours or 72 hours for remote locations, of when the booking is requested (as determined by Monarch Stays in its sole discretion) or the booking request will be automatically cancelled. When a booking is requested via the Site, Application and Services, we will share with you (i) the first name of the Guest who has requested the booking, (ii) a link to the Guest’s Monarch Stays Account profile page, so that you can view such information before confirming or rejecting the booking. Monarch Stays may also provide you the names of any members of an SNS with whom you are “friends” or associated on the SNS if such individuals are also “friends” or associated with the Guest on such SNS. If you are unable to confirm or decide to reject a booking of a Listing within such 24 hour period or 72 hour period, as may be applicable, any amounts collected by Monarch Stays for the requested booking will be refunded to the applicable Guest’s credit/debit card and any pre-authorization of such credit/debit card will be released. When you confirm a booking requested by a Guest, Monarch Stays will send you an email, text message or message via the Application confirming such booking, depending on the selections you make via the Site, Application and Services.
The fees displayed in each Listing are the Accommodation Fees (defined below) and the Guest Fees (defined below.) The Host may decide to charge a cleaning charge, at his discretion, called the “Cleaning charge”. Where applicable, Taxes may be charged in addition to the Accommodation Fees and Guest Fees. The Accommodation Fees, Cleaning charge, Guest Fees and applicable Taxes are collectively referred to in these Terms as the “Total Fees”. The amounts due and payable by a Guest solely relating to a Host’s Listing are the “Accommodation Fees” and “Cleaning charge”. Please note that it is the Host and not Monarch Stays which determines the Accommodation Fees and Cleaning charge.
Monarch Stays charges a fee to Guests based upon a percentage of applicable Accommodation Fees and Cleaning charge which are the “Guest Fees”. The Guest Fees are added to the Accommodation Fees and Cleaning charge to calculate the Total Fees (which will also include applicable Taxes) displayed in the applicable Listing. Monarch Stays will collect the Total Fees at the time of booking confirmation (i.e. when the Host confirms the booking) and will initiate payment of the Accommodation Fees and Cleaning charges (less Monarch Stays ‘ Host Fees (defined below)) to the Host within 24 hours of start of a reservation (except to the extent that a refund is due to the Guest).
Appointment of Monarch Stays as Payment Agent for Host
Each Host hereby appoints Monarch Stays as the Host’s limited agent solely for the purpose of collecting payments made by Guests on behalf of the Host. Each Host agrees that payment made by a Guest to Monarch Stays shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to the Host and the Host will make the Listing available to Guest in the agreed upon manner as if the Host has received the Accommodation Fees. Each Host agrees that, Monarch Stays may, in accordance with the cancellation policy selected by the Host and reflected in the relevant Listing, (i) permit the Guest to cancel the booking and (ii) refund to the Guest that portion of the Accommodation Fees specified in the applicable cancellation policy. In accepting appointment as the limited authorized agent of the Host, Monarch Stays
assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Host.
Please note that Monarch Stays does not currently charge fees for the creation of Listings. However, you acknowledge and agree that Monarch Stays reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge you for and collect fees from you for the creation of Listings. Please note that Monarch Stays will provide notice of any Listing fee collection via the Site, Application and Services, prior to implementing such a Listing fee feature.
Bookings and Financial Terms for Guests
The Hosts, not Monarch Stays , are solely responsible for honoring any confirmed bookings and making available any Listings reserved through the Site, Application and Services. If you, as a Guest, choose to enter into a transaction with a Host for the booking of a Listing, you agree and understand that you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Host and you agree to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions associated with such Listing imposed by the Host. You acknowledge and agree that you, and not Monarch Stays , will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that Monarch Stays is not a party to such agreements, and that, with the exception of its payment obligations hereunder, Monarch Stays disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements. You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the fact that Monarch Stays is not a party to the agreement between you and the Host, Monarch Stays acts as the Host’s payment agent for the limited purpose of accepting payments from you on behalf of the Host. Upon your payment of amounts to Monarch Stays which are due to the Host, your payment obligation to the Host for such amounts is extinguished, and Monarch Stays is responsible for remitting such amounts, less Monarch Stays ‘ Host Fees, to the Host. In the event that Monarch Stays does not remit any such amounts to a Host, such Host will have recourse only against Monarch Stays .
Listings will specify the Total Fees. As noted above, the Host is required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours or 72 hours for remote locations, from when the booking is requested (as determined by Monarch Stays in its sole discretion) or the requested booking will be automatically cancelled. If a requested booking is cancelled (i.e. not confirmed by the applicable Host), any amounts collected by Monarch Stays will be refunded to such Guest, depending on the selections the Guest makes via the Site and Application, and any pre-authorization of such Guest’s credit/debit card will be released, if applicable.
You agree to pay Monarch Stays for the Total Fees for any booking requested in connection with your Monarch Stays Account if such requested bookings are confirmed by the applicable Host. In order to establish a booking pending the applicable Host’s confirmation of your requested booking, you understand and agree that Monarch Stays , on behalf of the Host, reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) obtain a pre-authorization via your credit/debit card for the Total Fees or (ii) charge your credit/debit card a nominal amount, to verify your credit card. Once Monarch Stays receives confirmation of your booking from the applicable Host, Monarch Stays will collect the Total Fees in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Terms and the pricing terms set forth in the applicable Listing. Please note that Monarch Stays cannot control any fees that may be charged to a Guest by his or her bank related to Monarch Stays ‘ collection of the Total Fees, and Monarch Stays disclaims all liability in this regard.
In connection with your requested booking, you will be asked to provide customary billing information such as name, billing address and credit/debit card information either to Monarch Stays or its third party payment processor. You agree to pay Monarch Stays for any confirmed bookings made in connection with your Monarch Stays Account in accordance with these Terms by one of the methods described on the Site or Application – e.g. by Zaakpay. You hereby authorize the collection of such amounts by charging the credit/debit card provided as part of requesting the booking, either directly by Monarch Stays or indirectly, via a third party online payment processor or by one of the payment methods described on the Site or Application. You also authorize Monarch Stays to charge your credit/ debit card in the event of damage caused at a Listing as contemplated under “Damage to Listings” below and for Security Deposits, if applicable. If you are directed to Monarch Stays ‘ third party payment processor, you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party’s service and that third party’s personal information collection practices. Please review such terms and conditions and privacy policy before using the services. Once your confirmed booking transaction is complete you will receive a confirmation email summarizing your confirmed booking.
In some cases, the Host may choose to receive payment of Accommodation fee and Cleaning charges in cash at the time of arrival. Under this mode of payment, at the time of booking request, the applicable Accommodation fee, Cleaning charge and Guest fee, along with applicable taxes will be displayed to the Guest. The Guest agrees to make the payment of Guest fee at the time of booking confirmation and pay the Accommodation fee and Cleaning charges at the time of check-in at the Site itself in cash. Please note that Monarch Stays does not undertake any liability to the Host on account of non-payment or cancellation or no-show by the Guest. Monarch Stays is not responsible for administering or accepting any claims by Hosts or the Guests in this regard and disclaims any and all liability in this regard.
Payment policy
Guests have to make a minimum of 50% at the time of booking and 100% payment should be made 7 days prior to the check-in date to confirm the booking.
If the booking is made within 7 days of check in date, 100% payment is required for confirming the booking.
Service Fees
In consideration for providing the Services, Monarch Stays collects service fees from Hosts and Guests (“Service Fees”). Service Fees are made up of two (2) components: (i) Guest Fees and (ii) a fee that is charged to the Host based upon a percentage of the amount of the Accommodation Fees and Cleaning charges (“Host Fees”). Where applicable, Taxes may also be charged in addition to the Host Fees. Host Fees are deducted from the Accommodation Fees before remitting the Accommodation Fees to the Host, within 24 hours of when the Guest arrives at the applicable Listing. Guest Fees are, as noted above, included in the Total Fees.
Balances will be remitted by Monarch Stays to Hosts via cheque, direct deposit or other payment methods described on the Site or via the Application, in Indian Rupees (“INR”), depending upon the selections the Host makes via the Site, Application and Services.
