  • Service Overview: The Platform is a digital platform which provides a catalogue of online bookable Bookings, and which is made available to You through Your interactions with Providers. Each Provider will decide, at its own discretion, how to make the Platform and all information available through the Platform (“Junction Pay Content”) available to You.

  • Use of the Junction Pay Platform: After being redirected by a Provider to the catalogue and/or map of Bookings made available under the Platform, you will be able to access and, as applicable, make such Bookings.
