Software, MPC Service and Delivery Service

The Software and the MPC Service are based on the model of the ‘gig economy’ and permit you to obtain Delivery Services from Couriers. Importantly:

MPC does not employ any of the Couriers;
once a Courier has accepted your request for a delivery, an agreement is formed between you and that Courier; and
MPC is not responsible for the conduct of the Courier or the performance of the Delivery Service (including any damage to the Products that occurs during delivery).

You are using Delivery Services at your own risk and you are solely responsible for taking such precautions as may be reasonable and proper regarding your relationship with a Courier.

Products

You must pack the Products appropriately for transportation. There are restrictions on the types of Products that can be transported by a Courier. Specifically:

the weight of a packed Product must not exceed the weight stipulated in the App; and
the dimensions of a packed Product must not exceed the dimensions stipulated in the App.

Fees

With regard to each Delivery Service, you will be charged the following fixed fees:

a Delivery Fee due to the Courier; and
a MPC Fee due to MPC.

The amount of the fees will be advised via the Software. Payment is organised and processed via the MPC Service.

Liability and indemnity

Overall, MPC is limiting and excluding certain liability to you. However, nothing in the Terms excludes, restricts or modifies the operation of the Consumer Guarantees. The Terms also require you to indemnify MPC in respect of Infringement Claims – for example, if you breach the rights of a third party or if you provide MPC with data that you are not authorised to provide.

Suspension and termination

You must ensure that you comply with the Terms. Otherwise, MPC may suspend or terminate your access to the Software and the MPC Service.

    2. you will receive Courier Information for that Courier (including the Courier’s name, photo and geo-location), via the Software. For clarity, you must inform the Courier of the designated address for delivery via the Software. In all cases, the designated address for delivery must be within allowed distance to deliver.
  2. There may be circumstances where a Delivery Service is cancelled after a Courier has accepted your request for delivery. This includes situation where the Courier declines to pick-up or deliver the Products because the packaging or the Products themselves do not comply with clause 2.1.
  3. A Courier who has performed a Delivery Service may be asked by MPC to comment on the Delivery Service and to provide a score for the Delivery Service and the Courier’s interaction with you. MPC may also request you to comment on and to provide a score for the Courier. MPC reserves the right to post comments and scores on the App or the Website (or such other platforms as owned, controlled or managed by MPC) without reference to you or a Recipient. You must provide accurate and objective feedback on the Courier that does not violate any applicable laws and regulations. If you wish to discuss a comment or score, you may contact MPC.
  4. The Software and the MPC Service are provided “as is” and “as available”. Subject to clause 6.1, to the maximum extent permitted by law, all representations, guarantees, conditions, warranties, indemnities or undertakings that would be implied in (or affect) this Agreement by legislation, common law, tort, equity, or by course of performance, dealing, trade, custom or usage are excluded. Without limiting the foregoing, MPC cannot guarantee that access to the Software, MPC Service or Website will be uninterrupted or error free. In addition, MPC cannot guarantee that no viruses or other contaminating or destructive code will be transmitted or that no damage will occur to your mobile device. For clarity, MPC does not warrant or guarantee that Couriers will be available at all times and/or in all areas. To the maximum extent permitted by law, MPC is not responsible if you incur any Loss as a result of any of the matters set out in this clause 3.4.
  5. The Software and the MPC Service may be subject to limitations, delays and other problems inherent in the use of the internet and electronic communications. MPC is not responsible for any delays, delivery failures, or other damage resulting from such problems.

CALCULATION OF FEES & PAYMENT

1. The pricing structure used in calculating the Delivery Fee and the MPC Fee will be advised to you via the Software, or can be communicated to you by MPC. As part of the services provided to you, MPC may arrange for a third party payment processor or mobile payment platform to process the payment of the Delivery Fee and the MPC Fee via the Software.
2. For each Ride, you must pay:
  1. the Delivery Fee to the Courier; and
  2. the MPC Fee to MPC,
3. The Delivery Fee and the MPC Fee are fixed fees per Ride. A Delivery Fee may be charged, at MPC’s discretion, if you cancel a Ride after a Courier has been assigned to pick up the delivery.

6. Provided that you pay all applicable fees when due, MPC will ensure that the payment platform permits the Couriers to receive the applicable Delivery Fees.

GST

2. the receiving party must pay the GST amount when it is liable to provide the GST-exclusive consideration and the supplying party must issue a tax invoice or adjustment note to the receiving party as appropriate;
3. if a payment to a party under these Terms is a reimbursement or indemnification, calculated by reference to a Loss suffered or incurred by that party, then the payment will be reduced by the amount of any input tax credit to which that party, or the representative member of the GST group that party is a member of (as the case may be), is entitled for that Loss; and
4. terms used that are defined in the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 (Cth) (in this clause, the GST Act) have the meaning given in the GST Act, unless the context makes it clear that a different meaning is intended.
