      2. The Careem Captain has no authority to bind the Careem Rides Group and undertakes not to hold itself out as an employee, agent or authorized representative of the Careem Rides Group. Where, by implication of mandatory law or otherwise, the Careem Captain may be deemed an employee, agent or representative of any entity of the Careem Rides Group, the Careem Captain undertakes and agrees to indemnify, defend (at the applicable Careem Rides Group entities option) and hold the Careem Rides Group harmless from and against any claims by any person, entity, regulators or governmental authorities based on such implied employment, agency or representative relationship.

The Careem Captain may be deactivated or otherwise restricted from accessing or using the Careem Captain App or the Careem Rides Services in the event of a violation of this Agreement, or the Careem Captain’s disparagement of the Careem Rides Group, or the Careem Captain’s act or omission that causes harm to the Careem Rides Group’s brand, reputation or business as determined by the Careem Rides Group in its sole discretion.

      5.

The Careem Captain shall provide ratings and feedback in good faith.

      2.

In the event the Careem Captain’s average rating falls below the Minimum Average Rating, the Careem Captain may be provided a limited period of time to raise their average rating above the Minimum Average Rating. The Careem Captain agrees that if the Careem Captain does not increase their average rating above the Minimum Average Rating within the time period allowed (if any), Careem Rides may deactivate such Careem Captain’s access to the Careem Captain App and the Careem Rides Services. The Careem Captain agrees that repeated failure to accept User requests for Transportation Services while the Careem Captain is logged in to the Careem Captain App creates a negative experience for Users of the Careem Rides’ Services. Accordingly, the Careem Captain agrees that if they are logged in to the Careem Captain App, they will strive to accept a substantial portion of User requests for Transportation Services, and that if they do not wish to accept User requests for Transportation Services for a period of time, they will log off of the Careem Captain App.

      • to adjust the Fare for a particular instance of Transportation Services (e.g., Careem Captain took an inefficient route, Careem Captain failed to properly end a particular instance of Transportation Services in the Careem Captain App, a technical error in the Careem Rides Services, etc.); or

      • to cancel the Fare for a particular instance of Transportation Services (e.g., a User is charged for Transportation Services that were not provided, in the event of a User complaint, fraud, etc.).

      Careem Rides, decision to reduce or cancel the Fare in any such manner shall be exercised in a reasonable manner.


    4. Payments:

       
      • The Careem Captain acknowledges and agrees that subject to a minimum disbursement threshold being met, Careem Captain will be paid bi-weekly in arrears directly into Careem Captain’s bank account or wallet account for the Transportation Services Careem Captain completed in the previous two weeks.

        In addition to the scheduled payouts described in this Clause 5.4(a), Careem Rides and/or Careem Technologies and its Affiliates may also offer Careem Captain other options to receive Trip Payments for example instant payments or on demand payments, which shall be offered subject to any specific terms and conditions which may apply to such service.


      • It is Careem Captain’s responsibility to ensure the correct bank account or wallet account details are provided to Careem Rides and kept up to date on the Careem Captain App.

      • Careem Captain agrees that Careem Rides and/or its Affiliates may deduct from any digital Payment or other monies payable to Careem Captain at any time, any sums which Careem Captain may owe to Careem Rides, Careem Technologies or either of their Affiliates or which are recoverable by Careem Rides or its Affiliates or in the case of Careem Wallet Payments, Careem Technologies or its Affiliates including for example Service Fees, Careem Wallet Payments and any refund owing to a User.

      • The Careem Captain will continue to be fully liable for any amounts outstanding and owing to Careem Rides or Careem Technologies or either of their Affiliates until such amounts have been fully settled with Careem Rides or Careem Technologies or their Affiliates as applicable, for example where Careem Captain has taken more cash Trips than digital Trips and Service Fees are owing to Careem Rides.


    5. Careem Wallet Payments:

       
      • Careem Captain acknowledges and agrees that where a User has chosen cash payment for a Trip and Careem Captain has accepted such Trip, the User will have the option to: (i) receive any change as cash directly from you; or (ii) request that you apply some or all of the User's change to reload their Careem Wallet ("Careem Wallet Payment"), by informing you at the time of payment.

        For the avoidance of doubt, a Careem Wallet Payment is not a tip from the User to the Careem Captain.


      • The Careem Captain App will automatically specify the Fare due by the User plus the amount attributable as Careem Wallet Payment ("Total Payment Received"). The Careem Captain App will reflect the Total Payment Received and will specify the amount attributable to Careem Wallet as 'credits'.

      • You acknowledge and agree that where the User has opted to make a Careem Wallet Payment: (i) the amount of such Careem Wallet Payment will constitute a debt owing by you to Careem Technologies or its Affiliates in accordance with Clause 5.4(d); and (ii) any Careem Wallet Payment will (if possible) be deducted in accordance with Clause 5.4(c).

      • No service fee may be charged by the Careem Captain in respect of amounts constituting Careem Wallet Payments.

      • Careem Rides shall bear no liability or responsibility for miscalculations, errors or inaccuracies in the calculation of payments constituting Careem Wallet Payments and/or the incorrect entry of amounts representing a Careem Wallet Payment into the Careem Captain App by you. You agree and acknowledge that any loss or liability incurred as result of you error, miscalculation or inaccuracy in calculating or entering the amounts constituting a Careem Wallet Payment into the Careem Captain App shall be at your own risk and you further agree that Careem Rides shall bear no liability for errors, loss or liability which you may incur as a result of such actions.


    6. Recording and collection of underpayments:

       
      • If a User has insufficient funds to pay for a Trip (whether in whole or part), each such event is considered an “Underpayment”), you acknowledge and agree that:
        • you will record the amount of the Underpayment for that Trip in the Careem Captain App;

        • an amount equivalent to the Underpayment recorded by you under Clause 5.6(a)(i) will be recorded by Careem Rides as a negative balance on the User's account.

        • Careem Rides may from time to time deactivate Underpayments as a specific feature available to Careem Captain.


      • You agree and acknowledge that at the time of payment for a trip you may be notified via the Careem Captain App that the User has incurred a negative balance comprising the total cumulative amount of any underpayments incurred by the User on User’s account up to (but excluding) the current transaction (the "User Negative Balance"). In such circumstances:
        • the Careem App will reflect that the total amount owing by the User comprises of: (a) the Fare owing for that trip; and (b) the User Negative Balance owing to Careem Rides;

        • you are under no obligation to compel or demand payment for the User Negative Balance from the User and Careem Rides agrees and acknowledges that it (Careem Rides) bears ultimate responsibility for seeking recourse for any Careem Rides User Negative Balance from Users;

        • where the User pays the User Negative Balance in cash and where you elect to accept such cash payment, you acknowledge and agree that such funds will be settled with Careem Rides as part of the set off set out in Clause 5.4(c) above, as determined by Careem Rides and notified to you from time to time.



    7. Service Fee:

       
      • In consideration of Careem Rides’s provision of the Careem Rides Services, you agree to pay Careem Rides a service fee for continuing access to Careem’s Platform on a per Transportation Services transaction basis calculated as a percentage of the Fare (regardless of any Negotiated Fare) as provided to Careem Captain via email or otherwise made available electronically by Careem Rides from time to time for the applicable Territory (“Service Fee”).

      • Careem Rides is entitled, at its sole discretion, to grant discounts on the Service Fee in the form that Careem Rides considers appropriate.

      • Unless regulations applicable to Careem Captain’s Territory require otherwise, Fares will be inclusive of taxes, and Careem Rides will calculate the Service Fee based on the Fare inclusive of such taxes. Careem Rides reserves the right to change the Service Fee at any time at Careem Rides’ discretion based upon local market factors, and Careem Rides will provide notice to Careem Captain in the event of such change. Continued use of the Careem Rides Services after any such change in the Service Fee calculation will constitute Careem Captain’s consent to such change.


    8. Cancellation Charges:

       

      You acknowledge and agree that Users may elect to cancel requests for Transportation Services that have been accepted by you via the Careem Captain App at any time prior to your arrival. In the event that a User cancels an accepted request for Transportation Services, Careem Rides may charge the User a cancellation fee on your behalf. If charged, this cancellation fee shall be deemed the Fare for the cancelled Transportation Services for the purpose of remittance to you (“Cancellation Fee”).


    9. Receipts:

       

      At the end of a Trip, Careem Rides will automatically send an electronic receipt on your behalf for the Transportation Services you provided to User. It will include amounts charged to the User and certain information about you including name, photo and contact information, and a map of the route taken by you. You acknowledge and agree that any corrections to a User’s receipt for Transportation Services must be submitted to Careem Rides in writing within three (3) business days after the completion of such Transportation Services. Absent such a notice, Careem Rides will not be liable for any mistakes in or corrections to the receipt or for recalculation or disbursement of the Fare. For the avoidance of doubt, the receipts are not valid tax invoices unless specifically stated otherwise


    10. Taxes:

       

      You acknowledge and agree that you are required to: (i) complete all tax registration obligations and calculate and remit all tax liabilities related to the provision of Transportation Services as required by applicable law; and (ii) provide Careem Rides through the Careem Captain App or the Careem Platform with all relevant tax information (including your valid VAT number applicable by law). You further acknowledge and agree you are responsible for taxes on your own income arising from the performance of Transportation Services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Careem Rides may in its reasonable discretion based on applicable tax and regulatory considerations, collect and remit taxes resulting from your provision of Transportation Services and/or provide any of the relevant tax information you have provided pursuant to the foregoing requirements in this Clause 5.10 directly to the applicable governmental tax authorities or Users on your behalf. In the case of Transportation Services, you acknowledge and agree that you will pay any applicable taxes (excluding Careem Rides’ own taxes on its income) on the Service Fee charged to you by Careem. Furthermore, you acknowledge and agree that where Careem Rides is required to withhold any taxes on your income, whether on Fares paid by a User through cash, a payment card, the Careem Wallet, or other payment means other than cash, or on any amounts payable by Careem Rides to you, you will cooperate fully to enable Careem Rides to meet its withholding obligations, including remitting the required taxes to Careem.


    11. Different CCT:

       

      Careem Rides may make available in your Territory a different customer car type (“CCT”) which allows the Careem Captain and the User to negotiate the Fare directly through the Careem Platform. Careem Rides may suggest an initial Fare to the User taking into consideration a base fare plus the distance and time in journey estimated to be travelled using the location based services activated through the Careem Captain’s Device. You may negotiate a different amount with the User and the User can propose a higher or lower amount. Further, you are entitled to charge the User for any tolls, taxes or fees incurred during the provision of Transportation Services, if applicable, and such surcharges will be added in the final Fare. The Transportation Request will only be confirmed once the Careem Captain and the User have agreed on the final Fare through the Careem Platform. Once the Fare is agreed between the Careem Captain and the User through the Careem Platform, the Careem Captain will not be allowed to renegotiate the Fare. Using this product will not restrict you from using other CCTs available in your Territory. The Careem Captain may receive Transportation Services requests from Users on other CCTs even if they have received an offer from a User on the CCTproduct described here and, where this occurs, the Careem Captain can accept either Transportation Request. Other than as specifically relevant to the Fare calculation in respect of which the provision of this Section 5.11 will apply, all other provisions of this Agreement will apply to any Transportation Services provided by the Careem Captain through the CCT product described here.

The provisions of this Section 9.3 apply to such instances only and to Careem Captains associated with Fleet Companies only. The Careem Captain acknowledges and agrees that Careem Rides will remit the Careem Captain’s earnings from providing the Transportation Services (including Gratuities) to the Fleet Company unless instructed by the Fleet Company to remit directly to the Careem Captain on behalf of the Fleet Company. The Fleet Company and the Careem Captain (as applicable) shall be taxable persons in accordance with all applicable VAT, GST and indirect tax legislation and be responsible for all applicable taxes payable on such earnings remitted by Careem Rides.
