Peykers Terms and Conditions

Below are the Terms and Conditions that have been set for the Peykers (in other terms, our drivers):

1. Introduction :

The PEYK app is a mobile platform that enables users (“customers”) to get items delivered from and to most locations. The app and the service it provides (“Service“) to connect users like to carriers (“you” and “your”).The service is provided by Peyk LTD (“we“, “us” and “our“), company number 10522080 whose place of business is at Suite 604, Cumberland House, 80 Scrubs Lane, London, NW10 6RF (email [email protected]).

If you want to use the Service, you must first submit a ‘Become a Peyker’ application through our website. We will need to verify your identity and documents to complete your application and provide you with your login details. By creating a Peyker account, you accept these Terms when prompted on your device and application process. This will create a binding legal agreement between you and us for each order you do with us for the Service. If you do not agree to the Terms, please do not press to accept them and you will not be able to create a user account or use the Service.

2. Disclaimer :

IMPORTANT! Please Note: We are a software company aiming to provide seamless courier services across different locations in the world. All carriers are self-employed and are sole operators of their vehicles. It is the couriers (“your”) responsibility to make sure you provide the services to the customers (“them”) and (“users”) as told.

It is the couriers (“your”) responsibility to make sure you provide the services to the customers (“them”) and (“users”) as told.

4. Payments :

When you accept a booking for a Pickup service via the Application, the payment instruction will be processed by our third party payment service provider whose terms of service and privacy policy will apply to that processing. Payment processing services for couriers (“You”) on PEYK are provided by Stripe and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). By agreeing to terms and conditions or continuing to operate as a courier on PEYK, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of PEYK enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide PEYK accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize PEYK to share it and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.

The couriers (“you”) income will be paid out to the given bank account details after the service. Keep in mind that if there is more than one transaction during the day, the income will be sent together at the end of the day. Payments will be processed as told, but each bank has different policies and service terms in the timings of showing the funds in the couriers (“your”) account.

It is important to note that payments could be delayed to an undisclosed date if Peyker’s (“your”) account is terminated, or, if the company modifies the payment schedule.

Payments can take up to 30 working days to be processed depending on certain banking procedures. Claims and reports can be done after the 30 day period is completed.

5. Collected Items :

It is important that you know what you pickup from the customers (“users”). Even though we claim that they can send anything, it is your responsibility as the courier to make sure it meets the legal, safety and size requirements.

We provide all our couriers with sealable document slips that must be used if the customer (“user”) is sending any documents such as passports and bank cards. Simply take a slip, open it in front of the customer, let them insert their documents in the slip and then seal it in front of them. You as the courier must not open the slip or damage the seal in any case. Upon arrival, simply deliver the package by giving the sealed slip to the recipient. Couriers (“you”) could face account suspension or legal action by the law if found that the slip has been opened during travel.

According to laws and regulations, there are certain things that cannot be sent by PEYK service. These include:

  • Drugs: Illegal drugs such as inhalers, injectors, powders, smokers, etc.
  • Weapons: Any sort of guns, cold weapons, lasers, knives, etc.
  • Explosives
  • Acids: Flammable acids and industrial alcohol.
  • Petrol and Diesel
  • Illegal gasses and capsules

Therefore, make sure you always check the parcel before pressing on the ‘pickup completed’ button on the app. It will be your responsibility if you pickup any illegal parcel.

6. Notifications :

When you receive a booking request, you will be notified to accept or decline a trip. Make sure you enable the notifications on your device.

7. Your Cancellation Rights :

You have the right to initially decline a request but once you accept a request, you can not cancel it unless it is an emergency or creates a interruption in the service. To request a cancellation, the driver (“you”) should request a cancellation report and the operator will be the one deciding whether or not your reason is acceptable. Frequent unneccesary cancellations or anything without a sufficient explanation will result in a fine or account suspension. Drivers will also face a late penalty fee if the order is excessively longer than usual. This is in relation with the strikes policy (mentioned below).

8. Delivery Address :

It is the couriers (“You”) responsibility to use the address information given by the customer to find the pickup and drop off locations. Couriers can contact the designated recipients number to make sure they have the correct address and can deliver based on the requirements given by the customers.

9. Insurance :

All drivers (“you”) should be checked for DBS criminal records and have valid motor insurance certificates for the vehicles that they are using. According to law, motor insurances will cover the vehicle, driver and any item that is in transport in the case of accidents, fire and theft. This is up to the insurance company and will depend on the circumstances. Couriers are responsible in maintaining our etiquette and delivering all parcels safely. Insurance must be suitable business use insurance that includes clauses of either ‘Fast food delivery’ or ‘courier use’. Social and domestic please use insurances are not acceptable.

10. Packaging :

All parcels, letters and other packages must be suitably packaged by the (“sender”). The packaging must be safe, durable and comply with our dimensions (check in the app).

Couriers must have a suitable delivery box behind their vehicle. This can either be the one provided by PEYK or any other suitable one as long as they place the PEYK label on it. The box must be suitable to hold at least 10kg and have dimensions of at least 460*460*460mm.

Couriers must remember that they should always have enough document slips with them as they never know how much or when they would need them. They can easily be picked up from the PEYK Driver Enrolment Centre upon request.

11. Your Use of the Service :

We (or our licensors) retain ownership of the Service and its associated intellectual property. We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service’s features solely for your own personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms.

  • that you will not use the Service for any illegal purpose or in any way that interrupts, damages or impairs the service provided by the Service;

  • Peykers are not allowed to request an order and accept them themselves. In this case, the Peyker will not be paid with the extra promotional bonus allocated. However, if Peykers want to use Peyk, they are more than welcome to request an order and have it completed by another Peyker. If a Peyker is found to be misleading with the platform and using different accounts to place orders, they will have to fully refund the bonus paid to them or else they will face legal action. They will also be reported to a credit reference bureau and a deeper check will be conducted.
  • using a different vehicle type than the one registered with. Vehicles can be updated within the system at any time of request by the Peyker upon introduction of appropriate documentation.

12. Strike Policy :

The driver (“you”) will be given 3 strike points and these strikes can be lost to various reasons such as delayed orders, cancellation, unacceptable behaviour, false vehicle and invalid proof of claim. After all of your strikes are taken, your account will face a suspension which can result in termination or continuous service after 1 to 3 months. Strikes are given by the operator based on the circumstances faced. Its best not to cancel or delay once you accept an order ignorer to prevent getting strikes.
