Charges
As a User, you understand that request or use of Ride Services, DriveOne Services, or Third-Party Services may result in charges (“Charges”) to you and/or to an organization, if applicable. Charges to Riders and/or organizations, if applicable, for Ride Services include Fares (defined below) and other applicable fees, tolls, surcharges, and taxes, including as set forth in your market. (“DriveOne LLC Cities Page”), plus any tips to the Driver that you elect to pay. DriveOne has the authority and reserves the right to determine and modify pricing by posting applicable pricing terms to your market DriveOne LLC Page or quoting you a price for a specific ride at the time you make a request. Pricing may vary based on the type of service you request (e.g., shared, economy, extra seats, luxury) as described on your market DriveOne Page or within the DriveOnePlatform. You are responsible for reviewing the applicable DriveOne Page or price quote within the DriveOne Platform and shall be responsible for all Charges incurred under your User account regardless of your awareness of such Charges or the amounts thereof.
Ride Service Fares (“Fares”). There are two types of Fares, quoted and variable.
Ride Service Fees and Other Charges.
Other Charges. Other fees and surcharges may apply to your ride, including, but not limited to actual or anticipated airport fees, state fees, local fees, event fees, fuel surcharges, wait time fees, or distance surcharges as determined by DriveOne or its marketing partners. In addition, where required by law DriveOne will collect applicable taxes.
Charges Generally.
Facilitation of Charges. All Charges are facilitated through a third-party payment processor (First Data, Stripe, Inc., Braintree, a division of PayPal, Inc., etc.). DriveOne may replace its third-party payment processor without notice to you. Your payment of Charges to DriveOne satisfies your payment obligation for your use of the DriveOne Platform, DriveOne Services, Third-Party Services, and Ride Services. Certain Charges may be collectively billed as a single purchase transaction to your selected payment method based on the payment frequency indicated in your settings. If your primary payment method expires, is invalid, or if Charges to your primary payment method are unable to be processed for whatever reason, then you agree that DriveOne may charge your other available payment methods in the DriveOne Platform. If you don’t recognize a transaction, then check your ride receipts and payment history.
No Refunds. All Charges are non-refundable except to the extent required by law. This no-refund policy shall apply at all times regardless of your decision to terminate usage of the DriveOne Platform, any disruption to the DriveOne Services, Third-Party Services, or Ride Services, or any other reason whatsoever.
Third-Party Charges. If you choose to purchase Third-Party Services through the DriveOne Platform, you authorize your payment method on file to be charged according to the pricing terms set by DriveOne or the third-party provider, or as otherwise provided in the terms of the purchased services.
Payment Card Authorization. Upon addition of a new payment method or each request for DriveOne Services, Ride Services, or Third-Party Services, DriveOne may seek authorization of your selected payment method to verify the payment method, ensure the Charges will be covered, and protect against unauthorized behavior. The authorization is not a charge; however, it may reduce your available credit by the authorization amount until your bank’s next processing cycle. Should the amount of our authorization exceed the total funds on deposit in your account, you may be subject to overdraft of NSF charges by the bank issuing your debit or prepaid card. DriveOne is not responsible for these charges and is unable to assist you in recovering them from your issuing bank.
