The Exchange

Merchant wishes to offer its products or services for sale on Gustazos’ website, www.gustazos.com, through vouchers (“Voucher”) which are valid for Merchant’s goods and/or services at a discount as detailed on the Voucher on www.gustazos.com. Such Vouchers are offered and available for purchase by the public at www.gustazos.com (“Website” or “the Website”). Vouchers sold on the Website are eligible for redemption and use according to the details on the face of the Merchant’s offer (“Offer” or “the Offer”), the Terms and Conditions listed on the particular voucher Offer, and the Terms and Conditions for www.gustazos.com, available at www.gustazos.com/page/terms.

 

Gustazos wishes to market and sell Merchant’s Vouchers to purchasers on the Website. Merchant shall be the seller of any goods and/or services offered via the Voucher on the Website. Gustazos shall be the seller of intangible rights, embodied within the Merchant’s Voucher. 

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth in this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:

 

I.          General Terms and Offer Terms

This Agreement embodies the general terms of all Merchant Offers that Merchant promotes on the Website. Merchant shall complete an insertion order (“Insertion Order”) for each individual Offer advertised on the Website. Each Insertion Order will adopt by reference the complete terms of this Merchant Agreement. The general terms and conditions of this Merchant Agreement will apply to every Offer that Merchant advertises through the Website. The terms of each Insertion Order are subject to, and shall supplement, but not supersede, the remainder of the terms of this Agreement. To the extent there is conflict between the Offer Terms embodied within the Insertion Order and the remainder of this Agreement, the remainder of this Agreement shall prevail.

 

II.         Gustazos.com Vouchers – How It Works

            This section discusses how a Gustazos.com Voucher Offer functions.

            A.         Gustazos.com, Merchant, and the Voucher

Gustazos will promote the Voucher according to the terms specified in each Insertion Order and the remainder of this Agreement. Merchant remains the seller of all goods and services set forth in the Voucher. Gustazos will cause the Voucher to be sent to the purchaser of the Voucher electronically, upon purchase of the Voucher. The purchaser will present the Voucher to Merchant for redemption according to the terms of the offer.

            1.         No Joint Venture or Other Agency Relationship

Merchant is making this Offer available through the Vouchers on Gustazos’ website. Nothing in this Agreement or otherwise shall be construed to create a joint venture, partnership, principal and agent, employer and employee, or other agency relationship between the Parties.

            2.         Presentation of Offers

Gustazos will present Merchant’s Offer to the purchasing public through the Website. Merchant will complete an Insertion Order for each individual Offer, and shall give final approval of the Offer, prior to the launch of any Offer, in conformance with section 8 below, Submission of Information for Offer and Approval of Form of Offer. 

3.         Restrictions on the Offer

No restrictions on the Offer and related Vouchers are allowed unless specifically provided for by this Agreement. Vouchers shall be redeemable up to and including the Voucher Expiration Date. After the Voucher Expiration Date, as required by applicable law, Merchant shall: (1) allow the continued redemption of Vouchers; or (2) allow the redemption of Vouchers for credit with the Merchant in the amount of the total amount paid for the Voucher. Should applicable law require Merchant to do further, Merchant shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

4.         Partial Use of Vouchers

            In the event a customer does not use the entire value of a Voucher, Merchant shall comply with all applicable laws, reimbursing the customer, whether in cash or Merchant credit, if required by applicable law.

            5.         Redemption of Voucher for Face Value after Expiration

            Upon expiration, all Vouchers shall be redeemable for a period of six (6) months after the Expiration Date for the full purchase price of the Voucher (the “Paid Value”). For example, a Voucher offering a $50 service for an Offer Purchase Price of $19 shall be redeemable for $19 toward any service offered by the Merchant for six (6) months after the Voucher Expiration Date.

6.         No Additional Charges Beyond Voucher Price Allowed

            Merchant shall not require any person redeeming a Voucher to pay any amount, whether in the form of a fee or charge, that conflicts with the terms of the Offer. This section does not preclude the Merchant from requiring the payment of taxes as required by applicable law. However, should Merchant require Voucher purchasers to pay tax on the value of the redeemed Voucher, Merchant shall indicate on the face of the Offer that taxes are required to be paid by the Voucher redeemer.

            7.         Specific Conditions Related to Offer

            Merchant will adhere to any and all Specific Conditions related to the Offer, as set forth in any Specific Conditions exhibit attached to the Insertion Order for the Offer.

            8.         Submission of Information for Offer and Approval of Form of Offer

            Merchant shall submit all necessary information related to the Offer in order to present the Offer on the Website in advance before the date that Merchant’s Offer is scheduled to be published on the Website. Such information includes: photographs, language for the offer, and any other information relevant to, or necessary to present, the Offer. Based on the information provided, Gustazos will produce a “mock up” of the offer and present the “mock up” to Merchant for approval. Merchant shall provide approval of the form of the Offer by signing, dating, and providing Gustazos with a printed copy of the “mock up” or by submitting an email with the word “Approved” in the subject line or body of an email in response to an email embodying the “mock up”.

            In the event that Merchant does not approve the mock-up or the Insertion Order by 6:00 PM local time on the day before the Merchant's Offer is scheduled for publication, Gustazos may, at its discretion, elect to delay the posting of the Offer or cancel the posting of the Offer.

            B.         Sale of Vouchers – Authorization for Gustazos to Sell Vouchers

            Merchant hereby authorizes Gustazos to market, offer, sell, and submit Merchant’s Offer to purchasers in a manner consistent with this Merchant Agreement and the Website’s Terms and Conditions, available at http://www.gustazos.com/page/terms.

            Gustazos may terminate the marketing, offering, selling, and submission of Merchant’s Vouchers at any time, for any reason.

            D.         Marketing, Offering, and Sale of Vouchers

            Gustazos will market and offer Vouchers for purchase on the Website according to the terms of this Agreement. Gustazos will list Vouchers for sale on the dates specified in this Agreement. If dates are not specified, Gustazos will list Vouchers for sale at its discretion, within the term of this Agreement.

            Maximum Number Available: Should Merchant specify a Maximum Number of Vouchers available, Gustazos shall use reasonable business efforts to prevent further purchases of the Offer upon reaching the set maximum.

            E.         Customer Service Responsibility

            Prior to purchase of Merchant’s Voucher on the Gustazos website, Gustazos shall remain responsible for all customer support.

Such responsibility includes the responsibility for all customer service related to the supplying of the goods and services that are included within the Voucher.

            Customer Service – Hotels Only

            In the case of Merchants that are promoting hotel reservations (“Hotel Merchants”) only, Gustazos remains responsible for customer support until a reservation has been made with the Hotel. Once a reservation has been made with the Hotel, the Hotel is responsible for all Customer Service, including addressing cancellations pursuant to the applicable terms.

            All applicable terms and conditions that apply to a Hotel Merchant’s Offer shall be clearly described on the Offer’s face.

            F.         Offer Modification or Revision

            Gustazos shall pay Merchant the Merchant Payout described on the Insertion Order for each Voucher purchased and paid for in full on the Website by each purchaser, subject to the terms of Section II, subsection J (“Taxes, Payouts, and License Grant”) below and the remainder of this Agreement.

            I.          Refund of Vouchers Purchased

            In the event a customer demands a refund for an Offer purchased on the Website before the Voucher has been redeemed or expired and Merchant has been paid for such Voucher, Gustazos and Merchant shall be responsible for proportions of the refund according to the revenue split negotiated between Gustazos and Merchant for redeemed Vouchers, as embodied on the Insertion Order. Gustazos shall invoice Merchant for its contribution toward any such refund, or shall withhold the corresponding amount from any further Merchant payments.

            In the event a customer demands a refund for an Offer purchased on Gustazos’ Website after the Voucher has been redeemed, and Gustazos, in its discretion, determines that a refund is justified, Gustazos and Merchant shall be responsible for proportions of the refund according to the revenue split negotiated between Gustazos and Merchant for redeemed Vouchers. Gustazos shall invoice Merchant for its contribution toward any such refund, or shall withhold the corresponding amount from any further Merchant payments.

            Refund of Vouchers Purchased – Hotels

            In the case of Hotel Merchants, if a customer demands a refund prior to booking a reservation, Gustazos shall be responsible for any refund provided.

            In the case of Hotel Merchants, if a customer demands a refund after booking a reservation, but prior to the cancellation deadline imposed by the Hotel Merchant’s cancellation policy, Gustazos and Hotel Merchant shall be responsible for proportions of the refund according to the revenue split negotiated between Gustazos and Hotel Merchant for redeemed Vouchers.

If a customer demands a refund before the reservation date, after the Hotel Merchant’s cancellation deadline, but before checking-in, refunds may be provided by Gustazos and Hotel Merchant at the parties’ discretion.

For Hotel reservations that are not refunded under this section or due to a condition that makes the Voucher purchase non-refundable, Hotel shall honor the Voucher in the form of a credit to the client for the amount paid for the Gustazos’ Voucher, to be used toward a future stay at the Hotel.

            In the case of Hotel Merchants, if a customer demands a refund after booking, after the cancellation deadline, and after checking-in, Gustazos and Hotel Merchant may provide refunds at the parties’ discretion. If the customer demands the refund due to a bad customer experience, including unsanitary or unsafe conditions, Gustazos and Hotel Merchant may provide refunds at the parties’ discretion. If the customer demands the refund upon check-in due to perceived safety or health issues, refunds may be provided by Gustazos and Hotel Merchant at the parties’ discretion and Gustazos may elect to exercise any of the remedies afforded to Gustazos under this Agreement, including terminating the Offer, refunding all unused Vouchers, requiring Hotel Merchant to contribute to all refunds as provided for above, and collecting any unearned Advance from Hotel Merchant (as discussed in Section 4 below, “Funds Received by Merchant Before Fulfilling Offers”).

The Merchant Payouts shall be staggered, with partial payments as follows in order to assure Merchant performance of the Offer. All Voucher redemptions must be noted in the Gustazos Platform in order to be eligible for payment. If there are indications that Merchant has improperly marked Vouchers as redeemed before actual redemption of the Vouchers, Gustazos may require proof of Vouchers redeemed; such proof may include paper copies of each Voucher redeemed.

Additionally, if the Advance under Section 2, Section 3, this Section 4, or the remainder of this Agreement meets or exceeds $15,000.00 in total, Gustazos reserves the right to perform credit checks, to limit advance payment, and to otherwise investigate Merchant’s credit health prior to the advancement of funds.
