The Company does not itself store Consumer information other than that expressly requested and approved by the Consumer. Company does not facilitate the payment transactions between the Consumers and the Company is not a party to the transactions.
The Company, through the Platform, offers a method to Consumers to advertise for payment services. A Consumer that posts an advertisement is a Posting Consumer. A user that responds to an advertisement is a Responding Consumer. Both Posting Consumers and Responding Consumers are Consumers to the Company. The Company does not provide payment services on the Platform and it is up to Responding Consumers to offer payment services to Posting Consumers and it is up to the Posting Consumers to accept such payment services. The service of the Company is to provide a venue for advertisement and information exchange. The Company does not nor is it intended to provide payment services or any act that can be construed in any way as an act of payment services.
Where you are a Consumer, you may only access the Platform using authorized means. You agree that the user or users from whom you receive payment services are independent contractors and by no means constitute in any form an employment relationship between the user and you, unless otherwise expressly indicated.

Upon posting an advertisement with a request for payment services, Posting Consumers may receive responses from Responding Consumers. Posting Consumers are entitled to select the suitable Responding Consumer to transact with based on ratings and reviews of the Responding Consumer provided by Consumers and submitted to the Platform. In posting an advertisement for payment services, we do not undertake to provide Consumers with responses from users, nor do we guarantee to users that they will be selected by the Posting Consumers who post an advertisement for payment services.
Once selected by Posting Consumers, Responding Consumers undertake to perform payment services pursuant to their contract. Responding Consumers shall, at their own costs and expenses, prepare and/or purchase and maintain the necessary equipment and tools to provide payment services to Posting Consumers. Consumers warrant and undertake to the Company that they have the necessary licenses, qualification, skills and experience to provide payment services. The Responding Consumers acknowledge that it’s their responsibility and not the Company’s responsibility to arrange and maintain all necessary or required license and/or insurance in respect of payment services on their own account and at their own cost at all times. Responding Consumers understand that they will hold full responsibility in the settlement of claims and the recovery of losses raised by Posting Consumers in relationship to payment services. Consumers acknowledge that they are wholly responsible for providing true, valid and complete information to the Government of Hong Kong SAR to fulfill the Hong Kong taxation requirements for being a business entity in the transaction of payment services.

Responding Consumers are not entitled to non-performance of their contractual obligations, unless there was a material failure to comply with contractual obligations on the Posting Consumers’ part, including but not limited to the Posting Consumers’ refusal to pay.

The transaction for payment services between Consumers takes place NOT through the Platform. The Company reserves the right to adjust algorithm that generates pricing at anytime. Additionally, the Company reserves the right to penalize Consumers in breach of this Terms and Conditions, e.g. by suspending their accounts, without prejudice to other measures that the Company is entitled to take against Consumers in breach.

Payments for the Company are not refundable under any circumstances, including but not limited to the termination of accounts and cancellation of payment services.
We make no guarantees or representations regarding the skills and/or the outcome or quality of payment services performed by Responding Consumers. We do not endorse or recommend payment services of any particular Responding Consumer. Any reference on the Platform or at the premises of a Responding Consumer to the Company’s verifications indicates only that the Responding Consumer is a registered user of the Platform, and is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by the Company.
