Terms of Service
1. Introduction
Thank you for using AbegEppMe! These Terms of Service (“Terms”) contain the rules and restrictions that govern your use of our applications, products, services, and websites (“Services”). These Terms form a binding agreement between you and us. By completing the registration process and/or browsing the Services, you represent that (1) you have read, understand and agree to be bound by the Terms; (2) you are of legal age and have the capacity to form a binding contract with us; (3) you have the authority to enter into the Terms personally; and (4) if you are using the Services on behalf of a company or other entity, (a) you agree that “you” includes you and that entity, (b) you are an authorized representative of the entity with the authority to bind the entity to these Terms, and (c) you agree to these Terms on the entity’s behalf. You should not access or use the Services unless you agree to be bound by all of these Terms. These Terms of Service govern the use of AbegEppMe. By registering as a service provider or client, you agree to abide by these terms.
2. Payments and Transactions
- Clients/Users/Customers must pay the agreed full-service amount only through the payment option or to the AbegEppMe company account link/channel provided in the AbegEppMe company invoice sent to the Client/User/Customer by the service provider through the messaging system provided by AbegEppMe to facilitate communication between parties.
- Service providers may receive only 40% of the total funds as an initial deposit to commence work.
- Then 54% is released upon satisfactory completion and client approval.
- AbegEppMe takes a commission cut of just 5% and 1% insurance fee of the total amount of the service.
- You are responsible for reading the full-service listing before booking for the service. By confirming your booking, you agree to pay all applicable fees, taxes, and other amounts associated with your booking.
- Any quote or pricing displayed to a customer on the platform is offered by the Verified Service Provider(s) and is not offered, underwritten, or approved by us. Any agreement reached between a customer and a service provider based on this or any other pricing structure is a contract between that customer and that service provider and accordingly we are not a party to it nor are we under any obligation to become involved in any dispute.
- When you make a booking and the service provider is required to conduct a physical inspection & assessment of the work to be done at the place of interest of the subject matter, if need be, the burden of facilitating logistics and mobility shifts to you and the service provider to negotiate and bargain on a reasonable amount for that purpose only. This logistic fee can be paid directly to the service provider. If after the work has been assessed and a quotation is drawn up and agreed to by both parties through the approved messaging platform of AbegEppMe, the User/Client/Customer must request the AbegEppMe invoice that has the characteristics of the AbegEppMe company account details to make the payment. You agree that, where applicable, you are considered a reasonable user of our services and you can only make the payment to the company(AbegEppMe) and not to the service provider. Any payment, except the logistics fee, made to the service provider directly will not be deemed as a transaction sanctioned by us, and we will not be liable for any dispute, loss, or damage to property or person.
- We will not be liable if a service provider is delayed or denied clearance or entry into the premises where the work will be performed, as a result of your failure to make or take such appropriate preparations and put measures in place for a smooth running of the work.
- While we strive to provide accurate information on AbegEppMe, typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions that relate to pricing, service descriptions, availability, and offers may occur. Subject to applicable law, we reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or modify information or cancel bookings or parts of bookings if any information on AbegEppMe is inaccurate at any time without prior notice, including after your booking has been submitted or your receipt of a booking confirmation. You should not rely on the strike-through price in your booking decision. If comparing prices is important to your booking decision, you should do your comparison before making a booking.
- Please check all descriptions and restrictions regarding the services you are interested in thoroughly before you place your booking. If you have any special circumstances (e.g., a medical or health condition and/or special need) that may affect or be affected by the service you wish to book, it is solely your responsibility to inform us or the service provider before you place your booking.
- We make reasonable efforts to ensure the quality display of the services on AbegEppMe is as accurate as possible. However, we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color will be an accurate depiction of the color of the service you selected to book.
- You acknowledge that the services are in conformity with the transaction or intended booking if they: (i) comply with the description provided on AbegEppMe and possess the qualities presented on AbegEppMe; (ii) are fit for the purposes for which services of such nature are normally used; and (iii) are of the quality and performance which are normal in service of the same type and which can reasonably be expected.
- To make bookings, you must provide accurate and complete information for a valid payment method, such as a credit or debit card, that you are authorized to use. You must promptly update your account with any changes related to your payment method. BY PROVIDING INFORMATION FOR A PAYMENT METHOD, YOU AUTHORIZE US OR OUR AGENTS OR PAYMENT SERVICE PROCESSORS TO CHARGE THE PAYMENT METHOD FOR: (A) AMOUNTS DUE FOR PURCHASED SERVICES; (B) ANY AND ALL APPLICABLE TAXES, AND (C) ANY OTHER CHARGES INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. YOUR PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN APPLICABLE POLICIES. We may decline, freeze, or hold your transaction for any reason, including for suspected fraud, anti-money laundering, and sanctions compliance, or if we believe your transaction poses a risk to us or any third party.
- Customers/Users/Clients will be charged a fixed service charge rate of N250 per transaction.
- Payment Processors may charge you fees for your bookings made through AbegEppMe. Such processing fees will be disclosed to you via AbegEppMe. Your use of the Services and the payment processing provided by the Payment Processor is subject to our agreement with the Payment Processor, as may be modified from time to time. As a condition of using the payment services, you must provide accurate and complete information, and you authorize us to share this information with the Payment Processor.
- Your payment obligations are fully fulfilled once your payment of the agreed price is received.
3. Contact Information Exchange
- Sharing of contact details between service providers and clients/users/customers is prohibited and cannot be exchanged
- Any attempt to share contact details will be blocked by the system.

5. Platform Integrity and Anti-Circumvention
- You will be able to use the in-platform messaging service to keep all your communications safely in one place and allow for completeness and easy access.

You may only communicate within the platform for lawful purposes, in line with our terms of use.
- It is a material breach of these Terms to arrange for the booking of the listed service from, or the payment of fees to the service providers directly or to third parties outside the context of AbegEppMe for the purposes of circumventing the obligation to pay the fee for services booked through our platform. Users and service providers must not conduct transactions outside the AbegEppMe platform. If transactions are taken outside the provided system, parties involved are in breach of these terms, and they agree to indemnify AbegEppMe against any loss or damage as a result of such circumvention.
