STANDARD PROTOCOLS
Our Responsibilities: YUM2GO ("Platform") provides
an
online marketplace using web-based
technology that connects Merchants, independent delivery contractors ("Drivers”) and
customers. The YUM2GO Platform permits customers to place orders for food or other products
from Merchants; YUM2GO then notifies Drivers that a delivery opportunity is available; after
a Driver communicates their acceptance of the delivery, YUM2GO facilitates the ("Driver’s”)
completion of the delivery of the Merchant's products to the customer. YUM2GO is not a
merchant, food preparation business, reseller or delivery service; it is an online
connection platform.
Your Responsibilities: You fulfill orders placed on
the YUM2GO
Platform and provide them to Drivers or customers. Instead of collecting payment at the time
of pickup, you will charge the total sales price for each order (including all taxes and
other government charges) to an account you maintain for orders on the YUM2GO Platform.
Payment & Pricing: Each week, YUM2GO will settle
your YUM2GO account by paying you:
- the pre-tax total of all orders for the prior week, unless
(you requested an Instant
Pay) including the total sales tax on all such orders, minus.
- Any YUM2GO advertisement fee, any subscription fees, and any
other fees to which you
agreed
will be deducted. You are the "retailer" or "seller" responsible for remitting all sales
tax and
other governmental charges. You are also responsible for setting the price for each item
to be
made available on the YUM2GO Platform.
- Instant Pay is an option that all merchants can choose twice a
week for a fee of $29.99
each
payout. This option gives you as the restaurant the choice to receive your money
earlier.
Fees: YUM2GO’s commission ("Subscription Fee") is an ongoing $99.99 per
week Subscription
Fee. This Fee applies to all orders placed on the YUM2GO Platform that originate from the
YUM2GO App or YUM2GO website, including both delivery and pickup orders. Merchant agrees
YUM2GO may charge the customer fees, including a Delivery Fee and/or Service Fee, Item Fee,
Cancellation Fees, etc. YUM2GO may charge an additional markup for Merchants Products at any
time during this contractual agreement.

Merchants Fee: All Merchants that register will be charged an additional
onboarding sign-up fee of $99.99 which will be charged at the time of
activation for a Trial
Period of 30 days. AFTER THE END OF THE 30-DAY TRIAL PERIOD, YOU WILL AUTOMATICALLY
TRANSITION TO A WEEKLY RECURRING SUBSCRIPTION FEE OF $99.99 FOR ALL FUTURE
ORDERS. If you do
not want to continue past your trial period, you can cancel by going to
https://www.yum2go.com/merchant/merchant-terms. Only one trial is available per Merchant

ARBITRATION WITH THE COMPANY, YOU ARE AGREEING IN ADVANCE THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN
OR SEEK TO RECOVER MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF IN ANY SUCH CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR

-
Arbitration Rules and Forum. This Arbitration Agreement is governed by
the Federal Arbitration Act in all respects. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you
must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to YUM2GO’s
registered agent. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, video
conference, based on written submissions, or in person in the country where you live or
at another mutually agreed location.
-
Arbitrator Authority. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or
local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to
the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration
Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this
Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and
liabilities, if any, of you and YUM2GO. The arbitration proceeding will not be
consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other proceedings or parties. The
arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any
claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages and
to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable
law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and this Agreement (including this Arbitration
Agreement). The arbitrator will issue a written statement of decision describing the
essential findings and conclusions on which any award (or decision not to render an
award) is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator shall
follow the applicable law. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an
individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The arbitrator’s decision is
final and binding on you and YUM2GO.
-
Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND YUM2GO WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND
STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND RECEIVE A JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL. You and YUM2GO are
instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration, except as
specified in Section 17(a) above. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court
review of an arbitration award is limited.
-
Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions; Severability. YOU AND YUM2GO
AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO RESOLVE CLAIMS WITHIN THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON A CLASS,
COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THIS ARBITRATION
AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF
MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED
WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER ORUSER. If, however, this waiver of class or
consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable with respect to a claim or
dispute, neither you nor YUM2GO is entitled to arbitration of such claim or dispute.
Instead, all such claims and disputes will then be resolved in a court of law, and all
other provisions of this agreement shall remain in force. If any provision of this
Agreement is found to be void or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the void
or unenforceable provision shall be severed, and such adjudication shall not affect the
validity of the remainder of this Agreement.

BETWEEN YOU AND YUM2GO.

of your relationship with YUM2GO.

unenforceable provision had never been contained here.
