The Terms may be revised at our sole discretion periodically. Should any modifications occur, we will announce them on the Site and may send additional notifications. Regularly reviewing the Terms is crucial, especially following updates or during your use of the Platform. Continued use of the Site after amendments signifies your acceptance of the new Terms.

5. Third-Party Service Terms
Our Platform employs the services of third-party providers for certain features. Usage of the Platform signifies your acceptance of these third parties’ service terms. Notably, this includes Stripe for payment processing and user identity verification, and Persona for user identity verification. Access their service terms at the following links: Stripe Legal and Persona Terms of Service. For US users, Stripe’s services are subject to the terms outlined at Stripe’s US terms. UK users are governed by Stripe UK terms, and EU users by Stripe EU terms. Users must adhere to these respective terms.
Establishing a profile or utilizing the Platform is contingent upon your comprehension, acknowledgment, and agreement to both Wedo.ai’s and these third parties’ Terms of Service.
6. Relationship Between the Parties
The Platform provided by Wedo.ai facilitates connections between Users to engage in service transactions and payment transfers via a designated third-party payment processor. Wedo.ai is neither an employer nor a partner of any User and does not control or direct User activities related to their Platform obligations. Users acknowledge that Wedo.ai is not liable for verifying User Content accuracy or legality; it does not involve itself in the performance or procurement of Contractor services; nor does it guarantee the quality or existence of such services. Furthermore, engagement through the Platform does not establish an employment, agency, or joint venture relationship between Wedo.ai and any Contractor. Contractors act as the seller of record for transactions conducted on the Platform, with Wedo.ai remaining a neutral facilitator, not a party to, nor having any vested interest in, the transactions or agreements between Contractors and Clients.
Wedo.ai retains the right to terminate or suspend any User for violating these and, while it may assist in resolving disputes between Users, it is under no obligation to do so. You acknowledge that any disputes with other Users regarding breach of Terms are to be resolved independently of Wedo.ai, which bears no responsibility or liability for such disputes or any other User conduct.
7. Suitability of Project and Project Terms
It is the Users’ responsibility, not Wedo.ai’s, to assess the viability of any project, Client, or Contractor; to decide on entering agreements with other Users; to verify User information and to negotiate and execute service agreements. Users are to monitor the fulfillment of these agreements, for which Wedo.ai holds no responsibility but is acknowledged as a third-party beneficiary with the right to enforce its terms.
8. Worker Classification
Clients must independently determine the appropriate classification of Contractors engaged through the Platform and ensure such determinations comply with relevant laws and regulations. This agreement does not constitute a partnership, joint venture, franchise relationship, or an employer-employee relationship between Wedo.ai and any User.
9. User Accounts
To engage with our Platform, Users are required to create an account, entailing the submission of personal and business information that is publicly displayed upon completion of the profile. Users must ensure that all provided information is truthful, comprehensive, and updated as necessary. Failure to maintain accurate information may lead to account suspension or termination. User account registration undergoes review by Wedo.ai and its content moderation partners, and account security is the User’s responsibility, including the confidentiality of login credentials and prompt reporting of unauthorized account activity.
10. Verification of Identity
Users consent to the use of their information by Wedo.ai and third parties for verifying location, identity, email, financial details, and business ownership, although this does not obligate Wedo.ai to undertake such verifications.
11. Types of Accounts
Users may register either as a Client, intended for hiring Contractors, or as a Contractor, for offering freelance services. The Platform allows Users to switch roles between Client and Contractor as required by their business needs within the application.
12. Feedback Provision
Your contributions through feedback, comments, insights, and suggestions are valued as they foster Platform enhancements. By submitting feedback, you grant us the unencumbered right to utilize it without any restrictions or obligation for compensation.

You acknowledge that your feedback is beneficial to both Clients and Contractors and consent to its disclosure to the public.
17. User Payment Terms
17.1 Payment Options: The Platform offers several payment methods, which include:
17.1.1 Single Fixed Payment: Clients are to pay the entire agreed amount for a project as stipulated in the Services Agreement or Uploaded Agreement, in the currency agreed (USD, EUR, or GBP). Clients can opt to pay a non-refundable deposit upfront, which will be credited to the Contractor’s Wedo Money Account. However, the Contractor receives payment only after the upfront payment is processed by our third-party payment processor. The remaining balance will be held in the Contractor’s Wedo.ai wallet until the Client approves the Deliverables, or if no revision is requested within seventy-two (72) hours after delivery.
17.1.2 Hourly Rate with Cap: Clients agree to pay a ‘flat fee’ based on an hourly rate multiplied by a maximum number of work hours, as outlined in the agreement. This total fee is payable upon agreement execution. If the Contractor works less than the agreed maximum hours, the Client is entitled to a refund of the unused amount, subject to processing by the payment processors.
17.1.3 Milestone Payments: Clients will fund each milestone as defined in a mutually agreed Milestone Delivery Schedule. Payment for subsequent milestones is due upon acceptance of the prior milestone’s Deliverables. If the Client neither accepts nor requests revisions within seventy-two (72) hours of provision, the payment will be transferred to the Contractor’s Wedo.ai wallet.
17.1.4 Flexible Hourly Billing: For projects requiring variable hours, the Contractor and Client will set an hourly rate and a cap on billable hours per invoice period. Invoices are submitted by the Contractor through the Platform on an agreed schedule and are payable by the Client upon receipt or query. Note, with Variable Hourly Projects, there are no escrowed funds, and thus, a risk of non-payment exists.
17.1.5 Regular Fixed Payments: Clients pay a recurring fee, billed automatically at regular intervals as agreed (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly), with initial payments possibly adjusted pro-rata. These payments are deposited into the Contractor’s Wedo.ai wallet.
17.1.6 Invoice Without Agreement: The Platform allows Users to make payments for services via invoice without a formal agreement. Such payments are non-refundable and are not subject to dispute resolution assistance by Wedo.ai.
17.2 Payment Processing: Transactions are processed via Stripe. For US users, Stripe’s services are subject to the terms outlined at Stripe’s US terms . UK users are governed by Stripe UK terms, and EU users by Stripe EU terms. Users must adhere to these respective terms.
17.3 Processing Fees and Currency Exchange: Clients are responsible for any third-party payment processing and currency exchange fees incurred.
17.4 Tax and Regulatory Compliance: Contractors acknowledge their sole responsibility for all taxes associated with payments received via Wedo.ai’s Platform. Contractors will manage their tax obligations, including invoicing, tax reporting, and remittances. If applicable, Contractors must inform Wedo.ai of any withholding tax obligations and indemnify Wedo.ai against any related claims, including penalties and interest.
17.5 Electronic Communications Consent: Users consent to receive all communication, including tax forms like the 1099, electronically from the third-party payment processor. Users acknowledge that this consent negates the mailing of physical tax documents or related payment notifications.
18. Refunds and Chargebacks
18.1 Non-refundable Charges: The Client acknowledges that once the designated payment method is charged through the Platform for Contractor’s services as agreed upon, such charges are non-refundable except by mutual consent or as provided under these Terms. The Client further agrees to adhere to the dispute resolution procedures stipulated herein.
18.2 Prohibition on Chargebacks: The Client agrees not to initiate chargebacks against Contractor fees or other Platform-related charges. Any chargeback attempt constitutes a material breach of these Terms, authorizing Wedo.ai to dispute such chargebacks and to undertake collection efforts against the Client. This may include account suspension, legal action, and recovery of full damages and associated costs, inclusive of Wedo.ai’s legal fees and third-party penalties.
19. Project Termination
19.1 Mutual Cancellation: The Platform facilitates the termination of a project upon mutual agreement between Users. All Users agree to abide by the termination provisions set forth in their respective service or uploaded agreements and must formally conclude the project on the Platform to cease all billing activities.
20. User Dispute Resolution
20.1 Initial Resolution Efforts: In the event of a dispute, Contractors and Clients are encouraged to resolve conflicts amicably through direct communication before seeking Wedo.ai’s dispute resolution assistance.
20.2 Escrow of Prepaid Funds for Milestones: For projects with prepaid milestones, the Client must either approve the Deliverables or request revisions within seventy-two (72) hours to avoid automatic release of funds to the Contractor. Failure to act within this period will be deemed approval of the Deliverables and resolution of any dispute.
20.3 Formal Dispute Assistance:
20.3.1 For One-time and Milestone Projects: If disputes cannot be resolved directly, Users may seek Wedo.ai’s intervention within seventy-two (72) hours of the Deliverables receipt. A dispute submission will place a temporary hold on the release of project funds until either the dispute is resolved, a Request for Arbitration is not filed within a forty-five (45) day period, a settlement is reached, or a legal authority orders the release of funds.
20.3.2 For Ongoing Projects: Disputes may be raised at any point. Upon notification of a dispute, Contractors must submit an invoice for work completed up to the dispute date within forty-eight (48) hours. The dispute resolution will follow the process outlined in the Users’ agreement, and may involve Wedo.ai’s dispute resolution services. The Agreement is considered terminated upon the Client’s payment or dispute resolution.
20.3.3 Dispute Resolution Process: Upon a dispute submission, Wedo.ai will engage to support a mutually acceptable resolution. If resolution is not achieved within 14 days of dispute initiation, Wedo.ai will conclude its assistance efforts.
20.3.4 Final Dispute Resolution: Should Users fail to resolve their dispute, they must resort to the dispute resolution mechanisms such as mediation or arbitration specified in their Service Agreement, or, in the absence of such terms, default to statutory remedies.
20.3.5 International Agreements: Service agreements for Wedo.ai contractors outside the United States do not mandate arbitration. In case of disputes, the disputing party must submit the issue on the Platform to secure any prepaid funds. The Client is required to appoint an escrow agent and provide transfer instructions to Wedo.ai within three (3) months of the dispute claim. In the absence of a designated escrow agent, funds will be disbursed to the Contractor.
21. Arbitration
21.1 Users who fail to resolve their disputes within 14 days of initiating a dispute on the Wedo.ai platform and have elected arbitration as their dispute resolution mechanism in their Service Agreements must submit the dispute to binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. A decision awarded by the arbitrator may be enforced in any competent court. If neither User provides Wedo.ai with a Request for Arbitration within forty-five (45) days after a dispute submission, the dispute will be deemed resolved on the Platform, the project will be closed, and any pre-paid funds will be released to the Contractor, except where alternative dispute resolution methods are provided for in the Users’ service agreement.
22. Warranty Disclaimers
22.1 Wedo.ai provides the Platform on an “AS IS” basis, expressly disclaiming all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise.
