Terms of Service
Version 1.1 — Effective 8 April 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of Guest Booking System (“the Service”), operated by My Future Business® (“we”, “us”, “our”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Description of Service
Guest Booking System is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that enables podcast hosts and show operators (“Hosts”) to manage guest applications, scheduling, payments, and communications. Guests (“Guests”) can use the Service to apply to appear on podcasts and manage their bookings.
We are a platform intermediary. We are not a party to any booking agreement between a Host and a Guest. We do not guarantee the quality, accuracy, or outcome of any interview or booking arranged through the Service.
2. Account Registration
- You must be at least 18 years old to create an account.
- You must provide accurate and complete information during registration.
- You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials.
- You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
- You must notify us immediately at support@guestbookingsystem.com if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
- We reserve the right to terminate accounts that contain false information or that violate these Terms.
3. Host Terms
3.1 Subscription. To access Host features, you must subscribe to a paid plan (Founding Member or Monthly). Subscriptions are managed via Stripe or PayPal. By subscribing, you authorise us to charge the applicable fees.
3.2 Accuracy. You are responsible for ensuring your show profile, availability, and booking information are accurate and up to date.
3.3 Guest treatment. You must treat Guests professionally and fairly. You must not discriminate against Guests on the basis of race, gender, religion, nationality, sexual orientation, disability, or any other protected characteristic.
3.4 Booking fees. If you charge Guests a booking fee, you are solely responsible for setting appropriate fees and for any disputes arising from them. You must enter and maintain valid payment credentials for your chosen payment provider.
3.5 Honouring approved bookings. Once you approve a booking, you must make reasonable efforts to honour it. If you must cancel, you must notify the Guest promptly and process any applicable refund.
3.6 Google Calendar integration. If you connect your Google account, you grant us permission to create Google Calendar events and Google Meet links on your behalf. You may disconnect this integration at any time.
4. Guest Terms
4.1 Accurate applications. All information you provide in a guest application must be truthful and accurate. Providing false credentials or misrepresenting yourself is grounds for immediate account termination.
4.2 Booking fees. If a Host charges a booking fee, you agree to pay it as part of the booking process. All fees are displayed clearly before payment.
4.3 Attending bookings. If you confirm a booking, you must make reasonable efforts to attend at the agreed time. If you cannot attend, you must notify the Host as early as possible via the platform chat.
4.4 Professional conduct. You must conduct yourself professionally before, during, and after any interview arranged through the Service.

5.2 Guest booking fees. Booking fees are set by individual Hosts, not by us. We act solely as a payment facilitator. The Host is the merchant of record for booking fees.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.

These Terms remain in effect while you use the Service. You may close your account at any time by contacting us. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time if you violate these Terms, with or without notice.
Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including payment obligations, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) shall survive.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Australia, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Australia. If you are located in the EU, you may also have rights under EU consumer protection laws which these Terms do not limit.
13. Dispute Resolution
13.1 Informal resolution. Before initiating any formal legal proceeding, you agree to contact us at support@guestbookingsystem.com and give us 30 days to attempt to resolve the dispute informally. Both parties agree to negotiate in good faith during this period.
13.2 Mediation. If informal resolution fails, either party may request non-binding mediation before a mutually agreed mediator. The costs of mediation will be shared equally unless the mediator directs otherwise.
13.3 Jurisdiction. If mediation is unsuccessful or waived, any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Australia in accordance with Section 12 (Governing Law). Nothing in this clause prevents either party from seeking urgent injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction.
13.4 Individual claims only. All disputes must be brought in your individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action, collective action, or representative proceeding. You waive any right to bring or participate in a class action against us.
13.5 Limitation period. Any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service must be brought within one (1) year of the date the cause of action arose, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
