Preamble
Due to the increasing demand for Cash on Delivery Purchases, Craviors Management has decided to take measures to make this service available and afford buyers the security they expect from online purchases. Based on studies we have conducted based on inquiry traffic, between 50 to 70% of potential customers on a weekly basis inquire regarding the availability of COD services.
Implementation on the Craviors Platform
COD will be implemented for home cooks immediately on the platform. No change is required on the part of the home cooks to enable this. Once Craviors starts accepting COD orders, the following will occur:
1. Once the order is placed the order will be reported as "PENDING” and "CASH ON DELIVERY” will be indicated.
2. The buyer will be vetted by Craviors to be qualified for COD services on your behalf. This is an extra service that we will be providing to our home cooks who may be uneasy about COD operations. A Craviors admin assistant will conduct the verification by phone, social media and email. Once a buyer is verified to be authentic, the order status will be converted to "PAID”.
3. The home cook can then proceed to make the order. Once the order is prepared, Craviors will handle the booking of the rider who will deliver the product. Upon the exchange of the order for payment, the status of the order will be changed to "DELIVERED” and payment will be released to the home cook.
4. SPECIAL CASES FOR 3rd Party Riders – In the event that the payment for the COD order is directly transmitted by the rider to the seller, Craviors will take its commission from the Home Cook’s e-Wallet. In the event that there is not enough in the e-Wallet to cover the commission, this will be deducted from future orders.
Warranties and Liabilities
Due to the perishable nature of food items sold on the Craviors Platform, there are risks associated with the processing of COD orders. The industry of our home cooks is our priority and we will be going through lengths to verify the authenticity of buyers and the legitimacy of their orders. Furthermore, the following obligations and warranties are set forth:
A. Obligations of the Buyer for COD Orders
By creating an account on Craviors and submitting an order payable by Cash on Delivery (COD) a buyer of food items on the platform warrants:
1) That the details of the order are complete and accurate.
2) That the cost of the order shall be duly paid to the rider delivering it in full upon receipt of the food items.
3) That the order will not be cancelled, refused or the details indicated therein changed apart from the following valid reasons:
- Tardiness on the part of the home cook on pickup and delivery
- Acts of God that prevent the delivery or receipt of the item
- Incorrectness of the order delivered
- Breakage/excessive spillage of the food items due to substandard packaging methods used by the home cook.
-Spoilage of food items
4) That the buyer is aware that non-compliance with Craviors’ policies on COD transactions may result to legal action being taken by Craviors and termination of their Craviors account without prior notice.
B. Obligations of the Home Cook for COD Orders
By creating an account on the Craviors Platform and becoming bona fide seller of food items therein, the seller warrants:
1) That COD food orders will be prepared in a timely fashion to meet the indicated time for order pickup.
2) That the said orders are packaged securely in a manner that is fit for transit without resulting in breakages and spillage.
3) That the food order is complete and accurate upon turnover to the rider designated by Craviors.
4) That the food is fit for consumption upon turnover to the rider and delivery to the buyer.
5) That non-compliance with Craviors’ policies on COD transactions for home cooks may result in the home cook being liable for the costs for the order.
