FEES
Becoming an Hirebuddy.in Member is free. There is no charge for a Wish Poster to post Wish, or for other Hirebuddy.in Members to review content on the Hirebuddy.in Site, including postings. If You are a Buddy and a Wish Poster accepts a your bid to perform services, Buddy agrees to pay the following amounts to Hirebuddy.in, which are inclusive of Service Tax & CESS (“Hirebuddy.in Fees”): an amount equal to fifteen per cent (15%) of the amount that You agreed . You would charge the Wish Posters to complete the relevant Wish or provide the relevant item requested (“Variable Amount”);
The Hirebuddy.in Fees will become due to Hirebuddy.in on the earlier of: the date on which Buddy notifies the Wish Poster that Wish completed; or the date specified by the Wish Poster as the deadline for completion of the Wish, and regardless of whether Wish Poster actually pays Buddy.
On the date that the Hirebuddy.in Fees become due to Hirebuddy.in under this section 4.3, both the Flat Fee and the Variable Amount will be automatically charged to the Buddy’s ledger account. That was submitted when the Buddy registered. On that same date, an invoice for the amount of fees charged will be issued to the Buddy by email.To be clear, Hirebuddy.in Fees will be calculated only on the amount that the Buddy Agrees to charge the Wish Poster to complete a Wish or deliver goods. This means that:if a Wish Poster requires a Buddy to incur costs in completing a Wish (for example, if the Wish is purchasing groceries, Buddy might agree to pay for the groceries upfront and then be reimbursed by the Wish Poster), then the cost incurred will not be included in any calculation of the Hirebuddy.in Fees.(b) If a Wish Poster uses an online payment service to send payment to a Buddy, any ‘out of pocket’ costs that the Wish Posters authorised the Buddy to incur must be paid to the Buddy by cash.If a Buddy agrees to pay some of the costs as part of completing a Wish, Buddy is solely responsible for having those costs reimbursed by the Wish Poster.
