The Relation Between Users
tod is not in any way a part in the agreement between The Student and The Teacher, and therefore cannot be held responsible for any damages inflicted by users entering agreements between one another by using The Service.
Payments between users
By using The Service, The Student and The Teacher can send and receive money as agreed as the reward set in the advertisement.
tod provides a payment service from an external part, Stripe Inc, on The Website and in The App, which The Student and The Teacher can utilise for payments related to an ad. By agreeing to these ToS and by continuing to use The Service and perform teaching sessions for which you get paid, you are also bound by terms of service provided by Stripe and are available through their website, www.stripe.com. Stripe’s terms can change from time to time. As one term included in Stripe’s terms you must provide accurate and correct information about yourself and explicitly give your consent to tod to share such information and other transactional information in the payment service provided by Stripe.
Payments to The Teacher’s registered bank account are activated when the teaching session has ended, are reported in The App, reviewed and approved.
tod charges a transaction fee for each teaching session, which may vary in time and per market. In Sweden and the UK, the transaction fee is currently 25%. The fee is drawn from The Teacher which hence receives 75% of the payment defined by The Student.
Campaign code usage
In order to utilise the discount related to a campaign code the code must be entered when a task is advertised. A campaign code is only valid for the categories where a Student pays. The amount of the discount is refunded to The Student through its registered payment card and will be at The Student’s bank account a couple of days after the teaching session has ended and The Student has paid for the teaching session.
If nothing else has been communicated, the campaign code and its related discount is valid the first time a Student pays for a teaching session.
Indemnity
