  4. Price Guarantee

  5. Lunu guarantees the price for the Customer to make the payment up to 5 minutes in the Lunu widget/ Lunu Terminal. Lunu cannot guarantee the price for the transaction made outside this designated 5 minute window, and any transactions made outside the window may be returned/declined in accordance with the Retailer. Lunu has built the system to recognize payments that are at risk of never receiving a block confirmation, in these cases Lunu marks transactions as unconfirmed payments and rejects them.


  6. Customer Fees

  7. The Lunu Fee for Customers (if applicable) is up to 1% (e.g. in high-risk industries).

    For transactions using Binance Pay, a fee of 0.3% will be levied on the Customer.

    Network Cost: Lunu includes network costs in the invoice amount to accept cryptocurrencies from customers. Network costs are non-refundable when a refund is processed for the same order.

    Miner Fees. Cryptocurrency transactions may require a miner fee. These miner fees are automatically created by the customer's wallet and sent to the miner. These miner fees are not Lunu fees. Miner fees paid to the network will not be refunded if a refund is executed. Lunu reserves the right to change our fee structure and pricing.


  8. Lunu Refunds

  9. 1. Payment Exception

    In certain situations, if a purchase order/invoice is not paid in full or is overpaid, this will result in a payment exception and an incomplete purchase order. Customers can resolve these exceptions either in the Lunu widget or on the Lunu contact page https://support.lunu.io/contact-us.

    Customers can also contact the Retailer and request a refund. Lunu charges miner fees and Service Fees for refunding a payment.

    If the customer requests a refund for a Payment Exception, the miner fees and an amount equal to 5 EUR (except for the applicable VAT (21%)) will be deducted from the refunded amount. This 5 EUR fee is levied on Customers. Refunds will only be made in the original format currency of the transaction (e.g. if the invoice was paid in BTC, the refund will be in BTC only).

    The refund shall be processed within 30 days after the transaction.

    2. Expired Payment

    Expired Payments occurs when a transaction is received outside the time window of specified 5 minutes in the Lunu widget and terminal. All payments sent to the expired address will show up in Lunu's system as an expired payment. Customers can request refunds for the expired payments either in the Lunu widget or on the Lunu contact page https://support.lunu.io/contact-us. The miner fees and an amount equal to 5 EUR (except for the applicable VAT (21%)) will be deducted from the refund amount. This 5 EUR fee is levied on Customers.

    3. Unsupported Payments

Currently, Lunu does not support any other cryptocurrencies or wallets unless specifically stated on our website. Any payment made with unsupported wallets, exchanges, cryptocurrencies will be marked as "Unsupported Payments" and the transaction amount will be refunded to the customer after deducting the miner fees.

    4. Disclosure of the Retailer Refund Policy

    Lunu is not responsible for the retailer's refund policy. However, we recommend that Retailers have a clear refund policy for their customers (including, if applicable, "no refunds are allowed as all sales are final"). For certain industries, a refund policy may not be applicable (e.g., when a service is provided). If refunds are allowed, Lunu can only refund the amount in cryptocurrencies.
