Trips
The Driver proposes Trips on the Service by providing the origin and destination, date and time of departure, seats available and any other relevant information. In the scope of a Trip, Passengers can exchange Messages and place Bookings with the driver.

Messages
“Gomywayride Services Ltd” provides a messaging service to enable communication between “Gomywayride Services Ltd” Members. There are two types of Messages that can be exchanged through the “Gomywayride Services Ltd” messaging service.

Public messages
Public Messages can be exchanged between the Driver and the Passenger before a Booking is made to discuss final details about the Trip.

Public Messages are visible to other “Gomywayride Services Ltd” Members, as they contain information that could be relevant to the “Gomywayride Services Ltd” community.

Private messages
Private Messages can be exchanged between the Driver and the Passenger once a Booking has been made, or if the Driver has invited a passenger to join their Trip.

Private messages are only visible by the Driver and the Passenger who are part of the message.

Please note that we do not allow the exchange of personal contact details such as phone numbers, email addresses or website URLs through the “Gomywayride Services Ltd” messaging service until a Booking has been approved.

Bookings
The Passenger may book one or more seats from the Service only by performing an online payment with a valid credit or debit card. The payment is received by “Gomywayride Services Ltd” and constitutes a Booking on the Trip.

After performing a successful Booking on a Trip, the Driver and Passenger are bound to that Booking and any cancellations are subject to the Cancellations terms listed below.

The Driver and Passenger are informed of the Booking by notifications sent to their email address or phone registered with “Gomywayride Services Ltd”. The Booking is only valid under the Member’s registered name on the Service and is void under any other name. The Driver is subject, upon a Booking placed by a Passenger, to complete the Trip as agreed by each party. The Driver must ensure there are enough seats in their vehicle to comfortably accommodate each and every Passenger with a seatbelt.

Drivers have the choice between two systems to receive bookings on their Trip:

Request to book
Under the Request to book system, the driver indicates they wish to manually approve or decline each Booking Request on their Trip.

Passengers Request to book on a Trip with a driver by placing a payment authorization on their card. Passengers may also specify a Booking Request expiry time between 1 and 2 hours, during which the driver has to manually approve or decline the Booking Request.

If the driver approves the Booking Request, the booking is confirmed and the passenger’s payment is captured and a charge is made on the passenger’s card.

If the driver declines the Booking Request, the booking is voided and the passenger’s payment is not captured and the authorization is released from the passenger’s card.

If the driver doesn’t approve or decline the Booking Request, the Booking Request automatically expires once the Booking Request expiry time is reached and the passenger’s payment is not captured.

The passenger can also withdraw a Booking Request at no charge if the driver hasn’t previously approved it. The passenger’s payment is not captured and the authorization is released from the passenger’s card.

Instant book
Under the Instant book system, the driver indicates they wish Bookings on their Trip to be instantly and automatically approved without manual intervention.

Passengers who Instant book will make a booking with an immediate payment on their card, and be instantly charged and approved.

Bookings made under the Instant book system are final and subject to the Cancellation policy described in this document.

Payout to the Driver
Bank account is the only one Payout Methods supported to send Payouts to Drivers on “Gomywayride Services Ltd” by drivers requesting payment after the trip and providing their banking information with reference code of their car plate number for payment to be processed.

“Gomywayride Services Ltd” is not responsible for ensuring bank account details have been entered correctly and any payouts sent to erroneous bank accounts cannot be reverted.

Bank accounts may require additional verifications for security reasons and to prevent fraud, including but not limited to the verification of a piece of identification from the Driver.

Payout process
After a Trip, the Payment made by a Passenger goes through a clearing period of 24 hours. During this clearing period, Passengers have the opportunity to dispute their Booking on the Trip. In the absence of a dispute during this clearing period, the Payment is cleared on the next day.

Once the Payment is cleared, the Contribution portion of the Payment (the Payment minus the Booking Fee) is ready to be sent out to the Driver as a Payout.

At this point, the Driver must have a valid Payout Method set in their “Gomywayride Services Ltd” account.

Once a valid Payout Method has been entered by the Driver and the Payment has passed the clearing period, a Payout is ready to be sent to the Driver. Payouts are sent to Drivers once per day.

After a Payout has been sent to a Driver, there are additional Processing Times for the Payout to reach the Driver’s preferred bank account, depending on the selected bank:

If a valid Payout Method isn’t entered within two (4) weeks of the trip being completed, the Payout is forfeited and funds are deemed to belong to “Gomywayride Services Ltd”.

Conditions for the driver to get paid In the scope of a Trip between a Driver and one or many Passengers, the Driver must:
Turn up to the pick-up point five (5) minutes in advance. Before departure, inform the Passengers approved on a Trip of any modifications to the Trip details that might affect the Passengers, included but not restricted to changes in the timing of the Trip and/or the pick-up or drop-off points.

If the no-show cannot be verified or was left by mistake, it is rejected and there is no penalty for the driver.

If the no-show is verified and the driver was not at fault, a no-show review is added to the driver’s profile and the driver’s account is kept open
