Fresha partner terms

 

Introduction

 

Key Terms

Our summary uses capitalised terms which are defined in the Partner Terms of Business. We've summarised some key terms here, but the full version is authoritative.

Fresha Platform means www.fresha.com and our Fresha app(s).

Fresha Services means the Fresha services set out at www.fresha.com/pricing.

Fresha Business Software means https://partners.fresha.com and the Fresha Partner app.

Fresha Widget means our partner web interface within our Fresha Business Software, which you can embed on your own website and social media.

Fresha Booking Services means appointment booking services we offer through our Fresha Platform or Fresha Widget.

Fresha Payment Services means payment services we offer through our Fresha Platform and Fresha Widget or through devices you can purchase from us.

We are responsible for letting people make Fresha Bookings with Online Payments. You appoint us as your commercial agent under these Partner Terms of Business so we can do this for you.

For Fresha Bookings with Online Payments, we will collect payments from Clients on your behalf. When a Client pays Fresha, this discharges that Client's debt to you.

For Pay Cash In-Store Bookings, we will either deduct our Service Fees, if applicable, from what we owe you or, if we are unable to do so, we will set out the amount you owe us in your Invoice Statement.

Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, we will send you an Invoice Statement once a month, which will set out what we owe you, what you owe us (e.g. Service Fees and any other applicable fees or charges) and the resulting balance (whether you owe us, we owe you or the balance is settled). For the avoidance of doubt, the Partner (and not Fresha) is responsible in the event of a chargeback and Fresha will set out the amount you owe us in your Invoice Statement.

If we owe you, we will pay this amount to your bank account.

If you owe us, we will charge the credit card you supplied on the Fresha Business Software. If we are unable to collect your outstanding balance using this method, we will notify you and you will be required to pay your full outstanding balance within 7 days.

If the balance is settled, we will explain on the Invoice Statement that nothing further is needed.

If you have any issues with paying your outstanding balance within the required timeframe, please get in touch as soon as possible. We may pause or stop access to the Fresha Business Software or to the Fresha Platform if you are behind on payments.

If you have an outstanding balance and fail to pay or terminate your use of the Fresha Services, payment of your full outstanding balance will become due and payable immediately, including for any chargebacks. Failure by you to pay outstanding sums on or before the due date for payment will mean that Fresha may charge to the Partner the following:

  • Interest at an annual rate equal to five (5) percent above the official Bank Rate from time to time (as determined by the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee), which shall accrue daily both before and after any judgement and shall be compounded quarterly; and
  • the cost of obtaining judgment or payment, including all reasonable professional costs (including legal fees) and other costs of issuing proceedings or otherwise pursuing a debt recovery procedure.


What is covered in these terms

These are the Fresha Partner Terms of Business (which is also referred to as the Agreement). Fresha and Partner may each be referred to as a "party", or together as "parties".

We provide a booking platform called the Fresha Platform, where you can advertise your Partner Services to a range of potential customers. As part of the Fresha Platform, Partners have a license to use our business management software which comes with a broad range of features.

We offer Fresha Booking Services, which enables you to manage Client calendar bookings, including with multiple staff and locations, and to manage product inventory.

We also offer additional services, which include more advanced features, including online booking, appointment booking software, payment services, marketing and messaging support and professional services.

You are responsible for the Partner Services which you provide to Clients, and the contract for those Partner Services is between you and the Client. We are in no way liable to Clients for the Partner Services they receive from you.

You have a number of obligations to Fresha in return for receiving the Fresha Services. These are set out in detail in the full version, but some important ones are as follows:

You agree to process and supply the Partner Services to the highest industry standards.

You must ensure that you have all licenses, consents, permits, qualifications, authorities & insurances that are required for you to perform the Partner Services.

In respect of Pay Cash In-Store Bookings, Fresha is solely a technology provider and does not act as a commercial booking agent. Clients and Partners can cancel Pay Cash In-Store Bookings until the appointment time, and no contract is created between the Client and the Partner until the appointment takes place.

Confirmation and reminder emails will be sent to Clients via the Fresha Business Software on behalf of the Partner for each Fresha Booking. However, the Partner is responsible for providing the Partner Services to the Client and handling any cancellations or rescheduling directly with the Client or via the Fresha Business Software itself. Fresha has no further involvement in the Pay Cash In-Store Bookings process and solely provides the technology to facilitate Pay Cash In-Store Bookings to be made.

Fresha Widget at the same prices you offer on your own website. You are may offer lower prices or special offers to closed groups of individuals (both online and offline) directly in your salon and on alternative online sales platforms.

You must ensure that all information supplied to your Online Partner Profile is accurate, not misleading and legally compliant.

Your cancellation and rescheduling terms regarding Fresha Bookings must comply with Fresha’s Terms of Service and applicable consumer law.

Your relationship with Fresha

The following terms define your relationship with Fresha and give you permission to use all Fresha Services if you agree to the following terms, which explain how the Fresha business works and how we partner with you.

What you can expect from us

Fresha provides Fresha Services to enable you to manage Client calendar bookings, including but not limited to: multiple staff and locations and managing product inventory and vouchers.

In consideration of Partner's payment of the Service Fees and the Partner performing all of its obligations under this Agreement, Fresha shall provide the applicable Fresha Services to the Partner, as further described in this section. 

The Partner understands and acknowledges that Fresha is a commercial booking agent and does not provide the Partner Services to the Client. The contract for the Partner Services is between the Partner and the Fresha Client, and as a result, it is the Partner's responsibility, if the Partner is registered for indirect taxes, to charge indirect tax on the total value of the Fresha Booking and to provide a tax receipt to the Client, if requested. Fresha only charges indirect tax to the Partner on the Service Fees, in consideration for the provision of the Fresha Services.

In the event of fraudulent or alleged fraudulent activities by the Partner or if Fresha is required by law, court order, governmental instruction, arbitrational decision or by its cancellation policy to make a refund of all or part of a Fresha Booking, Fresha reserves the right to claim a repayment from the Partner of any amount required to be repaid by Fresha to the Client and for any Bank Charges relating thereto.

How Partners obtain the licence for the use of the Fresha services

Subject to payment of Service Fees (if applicable), the Partner may use the Fresha Services to process Fresha Bookings (or direct bookings by Partner Clients) of Partner Services for and on behalf of itself only.

As part of the licence terms for the Partner to use the Fresha Services (including, as applicable, the Fresha Business Software, the Fresha Platform, the Fresha Widget, and the Online Partner Profile), the Partner agrees not to do any of the following:

  • reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit the whole or any part of the Fresha Services;
  • allow any third party (including group companies of the Partner) to use or access the Fresha Business Software without express prior written permission from Fresha (which may be denied or granted on such terms as Fresha, in its sole discretion, may determine);
  • send unsolicited emails, SMS or other electronic forms of marketing to Clients via the Fresha Business Software (or otherwise send any direct marketing which does not comply with applicable Data Protection Legislation); or
  • disclose, share or resell any login details or passwords for the Services.

How we work with third-party and affiliate websites and applications

Fresha may publish or promote any information acquired under this Agreement, including calendar availability, business information, service descriptions and prices, on any third-party websites or mobile applications, particularly through the Fresha Widget or other application program interfaces (APIs). Fresha may supply affiliates and other third parties with the Fresha Widget or other APIs to promote particular Partner Services. Fresha is not obliged to promote all Partner Services using these third-party and affiliate websites.

How we access and use the content of our Partners

The Partner hereby grants Fresha, free of charge, a non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable and worldwide right and licence (or sublicense as applicable) to use, reproduce, distribute, sublicense, communicate and make available content that Partners publish on the Fresha Services and for any other purposes which are necessary for Fresha or required by Fresha to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under this Agreement. 

The Partner warrants that the Partner owns the Partner Content and/or is otherwise entitled to grant the foregoing licence.

Fresha may sublicense, make available, disclose and/or offer the Partner content to Affiliates and third parties. In no event shall Fresha be liable to the Partner for any acts or omissions on the part of any third-party platforms. The sole remedy available to the Partner in respect of such third-party platforms is to:

  • request Fresha (which has the right and not the obligation) to disable and disconnect with such third-party platforms in respect of the Partner; or
  • terminate this Agreement, in accordance with the Suspending or terminating your access to Fresha section.

The Partner hereby grants Fresha the right to:

  • remove, edit, cut down or otherwise amend content supplied by the Partner that is published on the Online Partner Profile or elsewhere on the Fresha Platform or Fresha Widget, including where such content does not, in Fresha's reasonable opinion, comply with the warranties identified in this section, or is otherwise in breach of the terms of this Agreement; and
  • use search engine optimisation services, pay-per-click advertising, and other mechanisms that embody, incorporate or quote (in whole or part) the trading name of the Partner or any brands used in connection with the Partner Services.

To manage the Fresha Services (including the Fresha Platform, Online Partner Profile and any Partner Content), Fresha may, at its absolute discretion and from time to time, amend the format, content, and style of Partner page descriptions, photos, and service menus.

What we expect from our Partners

The Partner understands and accepts that the Fresha Services (specifically, the Fresha Widget and Online Partner Profile, as updated by Fresha from time to time) are labelled "Powered by Fresha", contain Fresha branding (including logos, trademarks and images), and will give Clients the opportunity to opt-in to receiving email marketing from the Partner and from Fresha;

Fresha will provide the Partner with a user account and password, which allows the Partner to access the Fresha Business Software. The Partner shall safeguard and keep the user account details and password confidential and safely stored and shall not disclose them to any person other than those who need to have access to the Fresha Business Software and who are aware of the Partner's obligations to keep those details secure. Partner is solely responsible for managing access to its user account, including by its employees, contractors and other staff. Partner shall change the password in the event anyone with access to the user account leaves the Partner's business or no longer requires access. The Partner shall immediately notify Fresha of any suspected security breach or improper use, including any use which would breach this Agreement, Fresha's reasonable instructions given from time to time and/or applicable law.

In consideration of receiving the Fresha Services, the Partner agrees to pay all applicable Service Fees to Fresha and to provide all Fresha Bookings and process and supply the Partner Services to the highest industry standards and in line with any specific terms and conditions set out in this Agreement, and particularly in this section.

Fresha services 

Fresha booking services

Fresha provides Fresha Services to make it easy for Clients to book appointments online with you and other participating partners. The Fresha Booking Services include a consolidated list of Partner Services, and Clients may discover, review, and book these Partner Services using the Fresha Booking Services.

You may elect to offer certain Partner Services for sale through the Fresha Booking Services. At any time, you can update which Partner Services you would like to sell through the Fresha Booking Services.

You can make these changes through your Partner Account, and the changes will automatically be updated on the Fresha Platform and the Fresha Widget.

When a Client makes a Fresha Booking, the Partner Terms of Sale of the Fresha Booking will be made available to the Client and will be sent to the Client and the Partner by Fresha electronically. The Client will be required to agree to the Partner Terms of Sale before confirming a Fresha Booking.

You appoint Fresha as your agent to accept Fresha Bookings made by Clients.

In respect of all Fresha Bookings with Online Payments, the Partner appoints Fresha as its agent to collect and process payments (including any applicable taxes and delivery charges) on behalf of the Partner. The Partner remains fully responsible and liable for the provision and supply of Partner Services to Clients. Fresha is solely a technology provider with respect to Pay Cash In-Store Bookings.

How we promote our Partners 

Fresha shall promote the Fresha Booking Services following this Agreement and subject to the restrictions set forth herein. To maximise the exposure of your business online and the number of appointments scheduled through the Fresha Booking Services, Fresha may, at its sole discretion, enter into agreements with third-party websites and businesses to optimise any current or future listings for your business to take advantage of search engine optimisation, search engine marketing, lead generation or social networking opportunities, and perform any other actions Fresha deems appropriate to increase traffic and use of the Fresha Booking Services. 

Fresha may promote certain Partner Services through a variety of online and offline channels, including advertising, promotion mediums, social media accounts, search engines, Google, Google AdWords, keyword advertising, Facebook Ads, Twitter, email distribution lists, the Fresha.com homepage, email newsletters, third-party marketplaces, business partner websites or mobile applications, or through Fresha's affiliates and their networks. Such promotional efforts may include information about the Partner's business, including its business name, scheduling information, menu, service descriptions, pricing, staff names, staff titles, location, photos, and other data relating to the Partner's business. 

In addition, from time to time, Fresha may provide Clients with additional information on Partners subject to the limitations of this Agreement.

How to ensure the online partner profile stands out on Fresha

Content standards 

Partners are responsible for ensuring that the content listed on the Fresha Platform is accurate, complete and not misleading at all times and are reflective of Partner Services, pricing, staff availability, Cancellation Policies and No-Show Policies, and other content that the Partner offers. It is the Partner's obligation to transfer this information to Fresha by keeping this information on their Partner Account on the Fresha Business Software (including calendar availability) up-to-date at all times. Fresha has the right to suspend or terminate any Partner Account if the Partner fails to provide this information to Fresha.

Online Partner profile

The Partner may create an Online Partner Profile to promote their Partner Services, which contains buttons connecting Clients to the Partner Services. An Online Partner Profile may contain a "Book Now" button for appointment bookings and an "Order Now" button for Product orders.  

Fresha also uses these Book Now, and Order Now button links to determine if a new client fee (as defined in applicable debits and credits below) shall apply. 

  • Book Now and Order Now button links generated within your Online Partner Profile will not apply a new client fee; 
  • Book Now and Order Now button links otherwise generated on the Fresha Platform will apply a new client fee. 

Partner must ensure that it shares, copies or otherwise uses the correct button links, and Fresha is not responsible (for example, for refunding any new client fee) if Partner uses the incorrect link. 

Partners are responsible for maintaining accurate and complete information in their Online Partner Profile (including up to date contact information), and where photographs are used, Partners are responsible for ensuring that (i) photos uploaded onto their Online Partner Profile accurately reflect their services and place of business, and (ii) its use of such photographs complies with applicable law (including Data Protection Legislation). 

Partners may manage and modify the contents of their Online Partner Profile through the "Online Booking" section of the Fresha Business Software. 

The Partner acknowledges and agrees that its Online Partner Profile should not contain any contact details, direct references or links to the Partner or its website, app, platform, tool or other devices, websites, apps, platforms, tools, or other devices of third parties.

Partner profile transparency and consent

The Partner understands and accepts that the Partner must ensure that it has obtained and recorded the consent of each of its employees and contractors to be advertised on the Fresha Platform and the Fresha Widget to Clients. These details include, but are not limited to, details such as name, photograph, expertise, contact details, availability and services offered. If an employee or contractor withdraws this consent, then the Partner must remove their details from the Fresha Booking Services in a timely manner.

Partner service fulfilment

The Partner shall fulfil their obligation to provide Partner Services for all Fresha Bookings. In particular, the Partner must honour the Partner Terms of Sale of Fresha Bookings for their Partner Services, which includes the Deposit Policy, Cancellation Policy and No-Show Policy that were in place when the Fresha Booking was made.

The Partner must provide all Fresha Bookings and may only decline to provide Fresha Bookings in exceptional circumstances. Clients shall receive from the Partner Partner Services described in the Fresha Booking for the price indicated on the Fresha Booking. Partners may not impose any extra or additional fees or charges that contradict or otherwise alter the Partner Terms of Sale of any Fresha Booking unless expressly agreed by the Client. If a Client receives Partner Services that are less than the value of the amount paid for the Fresha Booking, they may be entitled to a refund by the Partner equal to the difference between the value of the service received and the value of the Fresha Booking.

Payment terms with Clients

Clients using the Fresha Booking Services may settle the cost of their Fresha Booking through their choice of payment method accepted by Fresha, including via the Fresha Payment Services. Partner agrees that payment made by Clients to Fresha in respect of the Fresha Booking absolve the Client of their payment liability, and Partner shall not seek further payment from the Client in connection with that Fresha Booking. For Pay Cash In-Store Bookings, Partners may accept any payment method they would otherwise accept in their ordinary course of business.

How to handle cancellation of appointments

In respect of Fresha Bookings, the Partner is obliged to comply with the cancellation and rescheduling policy set out in the Freshas Terms of Service. In summary and regards to Fresha Bookings:

  • a Partner may specify a time (e.g. 4, 24 or 48 hours) before when an appointment is scheduled to start (the "Cancellation Period"), after which cancelling an appointment through the Fresha Booking Services will not be possible, and cancellation by a Client will incur a cancellation fee. Partners may set their own Cancellation Period for Fresha Bookings through the Fresha Business Software;
  • if a Client cancels an appointment through the Fresha Booking Services before the Cancellation Period, the Client will not be liable to pay any fees to the Partner, and neither the Client nor the Partner shall have any further obligation towards each other in regard to that Fresha Booking;
  • if a Client cancels an appointment through the Fresha Booking Services during the Cancellation Period, the Client will be obliged to pay the fee outlined in the Cancellation Policy that was in effect at the time of their Fresha Booking. In this case, Fresha will collect cancellation fees from the Client through the Fresha Payment Services for later remittance to the Partner;
  • the Partner agrees to collect cancellation fees for Fresha Bookings only through the Fresha Payment Services. If the Partner collects cancellation fees through the Fresha Payment Services, the Client will be exempt from all further penalty or liability to the Partner, and the Partner may not impose additional fees or penalties to the Client in connection with that Fresha Booking;
  • at their sole discretion, Partners may choose not to enforce their Cancellation Policy on a case-by-case basis, even if the Cancellation Policy was included in the Partner Terms of Sale of the Fresha Booking. If a Partner cancels an appointment of a Fresha Booking through the Fresha Business Software (as opposed to a Client cancelling an appointment of a Fresha Booking through the Fresha Booking Services), the Partner will waive the cancellation fees. Cancelling a Fresha Booking without imposing the Cancellation Policy will conclude the contract between the Partner and Client in connection with that Fresha Booking;
  • Partners may modify their Cancellation Policies (including the Cancellation Period and the amount they wish to charge for cancellations) through the Fresha Business Software. The updated cancellation terms will be included in the Partner Terms of Sale for all subsequent Fresha Bookings with that Partner. Changes to a Partner's Cancellation Policy will not affect previous bookings, and a Partner may not enforce Cancellation Policies retroactively if they differ from the Partner Terms of Sale to which the Client consented at the time of making a Fresha Booking;
  • a Client may choose to re-schedule an appointment made through a Fresha Booking through the Fresha Booking Services. If the Client re-schedules their appointment in accordance with the Partner's Cancellation Policy (i.e. the reschedule occurs before the Cancellation Penalty Period), the Partner will accept the updated time as an amendment to the Partner Terms of Sale of the Fresha Booking;
  • the Partner may not impose cancellation fees for Pay Cash In-Store Bookings.

If Partner is eligible for and has enabled Pay Cash In-Store Bookings:

  • Fresha is solely a technology provider and does not act as a commercial booking agent. No contract is created between the Client and the Partner until the appointment takes place for Pay Cash In-Store Bookings;
  • the Partner may handle cancellations or rescheduling directly with the Client; and
  • Fresha has no further involvement in the Pay Cash In-Store Booking process and solely provides the technology to allow Pay Cash In-Store Bookings to be made.


How to handle disputes and claims from Clients

The Partner shall be directly responsible to the Client for any failure to fulfil the Client's expectations or any other legal liability regarding the Partner Services.

The Partner shall use its best endeavours to provide top quality Partner Services to all Clients and promptly deal with any sales enquiries, matters or issues relating to Fresha Bookings or potential Fresha Bookings, including dealing with Client complaints.

Fresha shall refer any Client complaints it receives to the Partner, and the Partner shall acknowledge all complaints and respond to the relevant Client within 48 hours of the Partner's receipt of a complaint, whether the complaint has come directly from the Client or via Fresha.

The Partner shall make all efforts to resolve any complaints within 14 days and must notify Fresha (via hello@fresha.com or such other method as Fresha may notify the Partner of from time to time) of any correspondence between the Partner and the Client relating to the complaint and generally keep Fresha apprised of its progress and the status of the complaint.

The Partner acknowledges and accepts that the Fresha Platform and the Fresha Widget includes a reviewing platform (which may not be opted out from), upon which Clients may post publicly viewable reviews about their experiences with Fresha and with the Partner (particularly about the Partner Services). The Partner further acknowledges that a selection of reviews from preceding months will also be made available on the Online Partner Profile (if applicable).

The Partner may not attempt to manipulate the reviewing platform, including by submitting reviews for their own Partner Services or by offering a financial or other reward for submitting reviews for their Partner Services, or by submitting inaccurate reviews about other services on the Fresha Platform or the Fresha Widget.

The Fresha Platform (including an Online Partner Profile) may from time to time contain negative reviews and/or feedback from Clients, which is outside Fresha's control. Partner may choose to reply to reviews about the Partner. Any content the Partner posts in response to user reviews must be polite, professional and non-threatening or confrontational, and it may be subject to review by Fresha (and may be removed or amended in Fresha's sole discretion). Fresha is not obliged to monitor any Client reviews or Partner's responses. The Partner shall have no right to any remedy (including any right to terminate this Agreement) as a result of any reviews or other public communications of Clients naming or referring to the Partner.

If the Partner, acting reasonably, feels that any public communications of Clients are defamatory or harmful to the reputation of the Partner or any person or in some other way is a violation of any person's legal rights, the Partner may flag and report such communications to Fresha. In such case, Fresha shall review the same and, in its sole discretion, take any action it deems necessary or desirable (including, for example, removing or amending such defamatory content from the Fresha Platform).

 

Fresha payment services

Fresha offers Partners the Fresha Payment Services to make it easy for Partners to collect, process, and refund payments from Clients (e.g. via Fresha Bookings with Online Payments).

By using the Fresha Payment Services in any of our Fresha Payment enabled geographies, you agree to be bound by the relevant payment processor's terms and condition and must be compliant at all times to the terms and acquiring addendums as set out at the following URL: Fresha Payment Services.

 

Capture card details

Where a Partner chooses to use capture card details for Clients to secure a Fresha Booking.

If the Client secures a Fresha Booking using the capture card details, you will be charged the fixed fee proportion of the payment processing fee.

You will be charged the remaining fixed percentage when the appointment is checked out and the Client pays for the Partner Services using Fresha Payment Services.

The payment processing fee (fixed percentage and the fixed fee proportion) will be displayed on your Partner Account when selecting how Clients pay for appointments.

Fresha reserves the right to vary such payment processing fees from time to time.

 

Fresha terminals

This section sets out the requirements for, in certain countries and for qualifying Partners, the option to use Fresha hardware devices for processing credit card transactions ("Terminals").

 

Fresha terminal order process 

If you place an order request for a terminal from Fresha (including whether you would like a mobile internet data service included), Fresha will decide whether to accept your order and on what terms.

Fresha will then provide an order confirmation documenting the quantity, model, and pricing (including if free of charge) of the Terminal you have ordered (and, if applicable, mobile data provided via Fresha). The order confirmation may also provide other terms applicable to your order, such as the expected date of delivery, the conditions under which a refund may be requested, contact information for support, and instructions for the return of the Terminal.

Each order confirmation will include an expiry date, after which the order confirmation is no longer valid. You may choose whether to accept or reject the order confirmation prior to its indicated expiry date.

If you accept an order confirmation, Fresha shall deliver the terminal to the delivery location set out in the order confirmation or such other location as the parties may agree.

 

Usage of Fresha terminals

If you receive a Terminal from Fresha, you agree to only use the Terminal in the country where your business is registered, and the Terminal was originally shipped, and in accordance with all local laws. Terminals may only be used for processing payments of the recipient business specified in the Order Confirmation.

Within sixty (60) days of receipt of a Terminal, you must activate the Terminal by connecting it to the internet (and you are responsible for obtaining and maintaining an internet connection, whether via Wi-Fi or a mobile hotspot or via mobile data from Fresha).[DP1]  If you have not activated the Terminal within such 60 days, Fresha may require that you return it at your cost.

You agree not to sell, transfer, license, lend, or gift the Terminal to any party not specified in the Order Confirmation, including affiliates, subsidiaries, or entities in which you are in common control.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold Fresha harmless for any losses (including but not limited to loss of business) that Fresha suffers as a result of your failure to comply with these Terms. Fresha may suspend your right to use a Terminal at any time if you do not comply with these Additional Terms: Payment.

Title and usage of Fresha terminals

By ordering a Terminal through Fresha, you become the legal owner of the Terminal. You agree not to intentionally damage, modify, reverse engineer, or otherwise tamper with either the hardware or software of the Terminal and shall endeavour to keep the Terminal in good condition. Fresha may use transactional data concerning a Terminal you use or conduct on-premise inspections (with reasonable notice of not less than 48 hours) to ensure the Terminal usage complies with the terms of this Agreement.

If you cease using a Terminal for any reason (including on termination or expiry of the Agreement, or Fresha suspends the functionality of the Terminal or requests that you return the Terminal), you agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to return the Terminal to Fresha within five (5) Business Days. This obligation shall persist even in case of suspension of the Fresha Payment Services in line with the Usage of Fresha Terminals section above. You accept and understand this to support your and Fresha's compliance with applicable regulations concerning the usage and disposition of payment devices. If you do not return the Terminal to Fresha within five (5) Business Days, Fresha (including any third party it appoints) reserves the right to enter your premises (or any premises where the Terminal is located) in order to recover the Terminal and/or you shall be responsible for Fresha's costs of replacing the Terminal.

Transferability and third-party usage of Fresha terminals

To the maximum extent permissible by applicable law, you are solely responsible for any access, use, activity, or transfer of Terminals. You are further solely responsible for ensuring that all third parties accessing, using, or otherwise interacting with Terminals do so within the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

It is your responsibility to familiarise yourself with the functionality of the Terminals and evaluate their suitability for your business operations. Fresha does not guarantee, implicitly or otherwise, the suitability of the Terminal for your particular business operations.

Upon receipt and use of a Terminal, to the maximum extent permitted by law, you assume all risks associated with the usage of that Terminal, including but not limited to loss of business associated with that Terminal. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Fresha from and against all third-party claims alleged or asserted against Fresha and all related charges, damages and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising from or relating to any access, use, reliance, or other activity transfer or disposition pertaining to the Terminals.

Delivery conditions and returns of Fresha terminals

The Terminal shall be delivered to the delivery address specified in the Order Confirmation. Fresha shall deliver the Terminal at or near the date indicated on the Order Confirmation. This period may be extended in case of circumstances or events beyond Fresha's immediate control, such as supplier or delivery issues, staff shortages or employee illnesses, or force majeure.

If the Terminal arrives damaged or becomes damaged or unusable through normal and intended use, you should immediately notify Fresha in writing. Unless the damage is a result of your negligence (including misuse or mishandling of the Terminal, in which case you will be responsible for paying all costs of returning and replacing it), Fresha shall, within a reasonable period of being informed of the damage, arrange for the return of the damaged Terminal and provide a replacement.

Termination of Fresha terminal

Should you seek to continue to use the Fresha Services but are no longer interested in using a Terminal, you may opt-out of using a Terminal by writing to hello@fresha.com indicating your desire to cease using Terminals provided by Fresha and by returning any such Terminals which you have ordered back to Fresha in accordance with Title and Usage of Fresha Terminals section. Fresha will provide instructions for you to deliver such unwanted or outstanding Terminals back to Fresha and shall confirm when such provisions of this Termination of Fresha Terminal section shall no longer apply to you. If the following termination of use of a Terminal as described in this Termination of Fresha Terminal section, you subsequently choose to use another Terminal, you will need to agree to the then-current version of this section of the Agreement.

Fresha store

Partner may elect to create a public-facing online store hosted via the Fresha Services, designed to display and sell various consumer products to Clients, and which may be labelled "powered by Fresha" (a "Partner Store"). Once created, a Partner may also unpublish its Partner Store.

Fresha reserves the right to revise and update the process described in this section from time to time, in line with changes to the technology, systems, interfaces and applications which support the Fresha Services.

The Partner acknowledges and agrees that Fresha's performance of the services it provides under this Agreement will be conditional on the Partner promptly providing all reasonable assistance, information and decision-making as reasonably required by Fresha from time to time, which the Partner agrees to give.

 

Listing products and client sales

Fresha will permit the Partner, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to select and list physical products of the Partner for sale via the Fresha Services (“Products”) to Clients who place orders for such Products through the Partner Store.

In listing, updating and removing Products for sale via the Partner Store, the Partner will provide Fresha with the required product information in accordance with the agreed inventory/product data feed, IT functionality and IT integration requirements and such other reasonable requirements that Fresha may have from time to time. 

The Partner acknowledges and agrees that the Partner, and not Fresha, is the store owner, seller and supplier of all Products and, accordingly, and subject to the Partner Store Acknowledgements section, is solely responsible for:

  • the listing, pricing, description, imagery, advertising, marketing, promotion, 
  • sale, packaging, labelling, 
  • delivery, supply, returns and after-care of all Products; and
  • complying with all applicable laws, including with respect to taxes, its activities and responsibilities in this section. 

Except for the specific obligations expressly undertaken by Fresha as set out in these Terms, and subject only to the first paragraph of the Our liability section, Fresha accepts no responsibility or liability for any aspect of any of the foregoing. 

Each contract for the sale and supply of one or more Products ordered by Clients through the Partner Store (“Client Sale”) will be formed only between the Partner and the relevant Client. Fresha will not be a party to the contract with any Client in respect of any Client Sale. 

Each Client Sale will incorporate and will be subject to Fresha's standard Terms of Service and any supplementary Partner Terms of Sale published via the Partner Store or as otherwise notified by Fresha to the Partner (as may be varied by Fresha from time to time in accordance with those terms) ("Partner Store Terms").

Fresha will provide and operate an online shopping cart and checkout tool on the Partner Store and will be responsible for taking payment of the purchase price (including any delivery charges) from the relevant Client in respect of each Client Sale in accordance with the prices set by the Partner from time to time in its sole discretion. Fresha will take payment through any of the methods of online payment accepted by Fresha from time to time. Partner will be responsible for complying with any contractual or legal requirements set by Fresha or its payment processors (including any know-your-customer-checks).

If the Partner wishes to use a Partner Store's 'Pick-up' functionality (to allow Clients to collect a pre-ordered or pre-purchased Product at a location selected by the Client), the Partner will be responsible for providing accurate and complete details to Fresha of the relevant pick-up location and its opening hours, so that Fresha can provide these details to the relevant Clients via the Fresha Platform.

Fresha will promptly relay the order details in respect of each Client Sale to the Partner, and the Partner will then promptly fulfil such order in accordance with the Partner Store Terms.

 

Partner store warranties

The Partner represents and warrants that: 

  • it is the true owner of the products or is properly authorised to sell the Products by the true owner and is able to transfer good title to the products free from any third-party claims, liens or encumbrances;

  • no Product is illegal or unlawful or will otherwise fall within any of Fresha's list of prohibited items as may be notified by Fresha in writing from time to time; and 
  • each Product is safe and bears any marking and labelling required under applicable law (such as where applicable, a "CE" mark).

The Partner will ensure that each product is available in sufficient quantity in its stocks to satisfy Clients' reasonable expectations.

Partner store order fulfilment

The Partner will fulfil and dispatch all products bought by Clients from the partner store in accordance with the Partner store terms and, in any event, in accordance with applicable laws. If you do not otherwise specify a shorter delivery date in your Partner store terms, you must fulfil Clients' orders within 30 days of the date of the order confirmation unless there are exceptional circumstances. The Partner will provide Fresha with all information reasonably required by Fresha regarding dispatch, order status and tracking. 

The Partner will include an order-specific packing slip with each product, which identifies the Partner as the retailer to which the Client can return the applicable product, and which sets out all other relevant details, including those required by the Partner store terms and applicable laws. The Partner will also include any documentation provided by Fresha within the packaging for a Product. The Partner will handle and deliver every product within the time stipulated by the Partner (and in any event in accordance with the Partner store terms and applicable laws).  

After dispatch of a Client's order (or any portion of the Client's order) ("Dispatch"), the Partner will promptly and accurately inform Fresha that the order has been dispatched (and, in the case of a Client order that is dispatched in more than one consignment, accurately inform Fresha which portion of the order has been dispatched), using Fresha's system functionality for communicating such information. The Partner must make such notification promptly and, at the latest, within 24 hours. If the Partner fails to provide confirmation of dispatch within 24 hours, Fresha may, in its sole discretion, cancel (and/or direct the Partner to stop and/or cancel) any such transaction, and the Partner will stop and/or cancel any such transaction on such request by Fresha.  

The Partner will deliver the product(s) to the Client within the timescales required by the Partner store terms and, in any event, in accordance with applicable laws.  Persistent failure to deliver to Clients on time may lead to the Partner being removed from the Fresha services.

Each sale of a product agreed upon via the Partner store is recorded via the Fresha services. The Partner waives any right it may have to assert a claim against Fresha with respect to the Fresha services when dispatching a product to an address other than the address provided in respect of that product in the Partner's interface.

Fresha will automatically issue an email notification to the Client through its notification and messaging services to the Partner concerning the dispatch confirmation of products. The Client will have the opportunity to contact the Partner directly on any order matters. Fresha is not responsible for any communication between the Client and a Partner in regard to order fulfilment.

 

Product returns

Partner represents and warrants that: (a) it will provide an accurate Refunds Policy via its Fresha Store; (b) the Refunds Policy will fully and accurately reflect in what circumstances the Partner will accept returns and how the Partner will process returns and refunds, and in any case, must comply with applicable law; and (c) it will comply with this Refunds Policy. Material failure to comply with this shall be treated as a material breach of this contract. 

You must accept order cancellations and Product exchanges or returns from Clients in compliance with applicable local law.

If an order is cancelled or returned, you will refund the price of the Product in full, including the cost of standard delivery (and the cost of any alternative or premium delivery for any faulty or misdescribed Product).

Partner store acknowledgements

The Partner will ensure that all offers and promotions available through the Partner's own website(s) and any other online marketplace(s) are also made available, on like or better terms, through the Fresha Store. The Partner will be solely responsible for ensuring the prices it sets are correct. Fresha does not permit the Partner to select prices that are lower than or equivalent to zero.

The Partner appoints Fresha as the Partner's agent for the purposes of collecting the purchase price and VAT (or other sales or indirect tax) from the relevant Client in respect of each Client Sale. The Partner acknowledges and agrees that payment to Fresha by the relevant Client will discharge such Client’s liability to the Partner in respect of the purchase price and applicable taxes payable in respect of the relevant Client Sale.  The Partner will ensure throughout the term of this Agreement that nothing in its own website, policies or terms and conditions contain any provisions inconsistent with this Agreement.

Subject to payment of Service Fees (if applicable), the Partner may use the Fresha Services to process Fresha Bookings (or direct bookings by Partner Clients) of Partner Services for and on behalf of itself only.

The Partner must not apply a surcharge to Clients who make bookings or orders through the Fresha Platform or Fresha Services if that surcharge would not be applied to other Partner Clients in the ordinary course of business. For the avoidance of doubt, the Partner is permitted to offer lower prices or discounts to Partner Clients under its own promotional campaigns or loyalty schemes but must not "pass on" Service Fees to Clients who make Fresha Bookings unless permitted to do so by applicable law.

The Partner shall not solicit Clients to make bookings or orders otherwise than through the Fresha Platform or Fresha Services. In other words, if a Client expresses an intent or preference to make a Fresha Booking or Product order, the Partner may not encourage the Client to book or order through other means. In particular, where a Client makes a Fresha Booking or Product order, and the Partner encourages that Client to cancel it and make a separate booking or order directly with the Partner, the Partner shall be in material breach of this Agreement.

It is a condition of this agreement that Partner will not make any direct or indirect attempt to avoid paying any Service Fees (including, for example, by listing Partner Services for free or with incorrectly low prices (including if pricing information is provided elsewhere), or by fraudulently cancelling a Fresha Booking and rebooking it). If Fresha has reasonable grounds to suspect that the Partner has made such an attempt to avoid paying any Service Fees, Fresha may, without limiting other remedies available to it, withhold and retain any payments due to the Partner under this Agreement.

If a Partner has chosen to receive Fresha Services which attract Service Fees and wishes to cancel one or more of those Fresha Services, the Partner must give Fresha at least 30 days' notice in writing of its intention to cancel the specified Fresha Services. The Partner will remain liable to pay any applicable Service Fees for the duration of the notice period.

Fresha may, in its sole discretion, change the amount of any Service Fees and/or the rate of Commission at any time with 30 days' prior written notice to the Partner (a "Pricing Change Notice"). The Partner's continued use of the Fresha Services after receipt of such Pricing Change Notice will be deemed to be acceptance of the new Service Fee and/or rate of Commission. If a Partner does not agree to a change in the Service Fees, their sole recourse will be to cease using the Fresha Services pursuant to the Suspending or terminating your access to Fresha section. The change shall take effect on the expiry of the notice period of the Pricing Change Notice unless Fresha expressly states a later effective date.

How we invoice our Partners

Fresha will issue an invoice statement to the Partner once a month (the "Invoice Statement") which will include, among other things, the following contents:

  • the balance carried over from the previous Invoice Statement (the "Opening Balance"), if any, will appear in your Fresha Wallet statement;
  • what Fresha owes the Partner in respect of Fresha Bookings with Online Payments in the period since the last Invoice Statement;
  • what the Partner owes Fresha in respect of Pay Cash In-Store Bookings and any other accrued Service Fees since the previous Invoice Statement; and
  • the resulting account balance (the "Closing Balance") payable either by Fresha to the Partner or the Partner to Fresha.

The Invoice Statement will also itemise all categories of Fresha Bookings and Service Fees, including:

  • Fresha Bookings and Product orders with Online Payments;
  • Pay Cash In-Store Bookings;
  • Collections and Service Fees from deposits, cancellations and no-shows; and
  • other Service Fees payable to Fresha by the Partner which are not directly tied to a collection by Fresha of payment for a specific Fresha Booking from a Client (e.g. a professional fee from time to time that may be payable by the Partner to Fresha under any additional terms).

How we pay our Partners

Partners will be paid as set out at "How do payout work?", considering the balance accrued on the Partner Account (the "Current Balance"):

  • if, for the period of service under consideration, the Current Balance is positive, Fresha will transfer the amount of the Current Balance to the Partner on the date specified on the Fresha Business Software. Such transfers from Fresha to the Partner will be made to the Partner's bank account (the details of which shall be supplied by the Partner on the Fresha Business Software); no further action regarding the Current Balance will be required by the Partner;
  • if the Current Balance is negative, the Partner is in debt to Fresha, and no pay-out will be remitted to the Partner. If the Current Balance remains negative as of the end of the month, the Partner's Credit Card will be charged the amount of the Current Balance at the end of the month;
  • if the Current Balance is zero, then for the period under consideration, neither Fresha nor the Partner has any obligation towards each other, and there is nothing further for Fresha or the Partner to do in respect of that period.

How we collect payments from our Partners

The Partner and Fresha mutually accept that all monies collected through the Fresha Payment Services are owed to the Partner and that, as a commercial agent, Fresha is unable to draw from these monies for any purpose not explicitly mentioned in this Agreement. The Partner also understands and accepts that its usage of the Fresha Payment Services is available in consideration for the payment of Service Fees and that the Current Balance may be either decreased (in terms of debits for Service Fees) or increased (in terms of credits granted by Fresha) based on specific, strict criteria related to the commercial terms outlined in this Agreement.

The Partner and Fresha mutually accept that where a Client owes a payment to Partner, and the Client makes such payment to Fresha (via the Payment Processor), then such obligation to pay is (as between Client and Partner), discharged when Fresha receives the payment (via the Payment Processor). In such event, Partner acknowledges that it shall not seek payment directly from the Client. Further, any onward payment of amounts collected by Fresha and due to the Partner will be strictly subject to the Partner having provided the Partner Services according to a Fresha Booking following this Agreement. Subject to the preceding condition being satisfied by the Partner, onward payment of any balance will be payable by Fresha or the Partner, as applicable, as described earlier in this section.

In the case of applicable debits and credits

The lists of applicable debits and credits are comprehensive; neither Fresha nor its Payment Processors are authorised to debit or credit funds owed to Partners except as explicitly outlined in the use cases above. Invoices generated by Fresha and provided to Partners will itemise each adjustment to the Current Balance with the applicable reason for adjustment (in cases where multiple reasons may apply, only one justification will be provided).

From time to time, Fresha may, at its discretion, choose to award free 'Fresha credits' to the Partner ("Credits"). Fresha shall notify the Partner of any award of free Credits through the Fresha Wallet, and the Partner shall be able to see their total accumulated remaining free Credits in the Fresha Wallet. The Partner may use free Credits towards payment against specific services offered by Fresha, as notified by Fresha to the Partner via the Fresha Services from time to time. Free Credits are not exchangeable in any circumstances (including but not limited to not being exchangeable for cash, currency exchange or chargebacks), hold no value outside the Fresha Services, are not transferable to any other person, and expire upon the Partner ceasing to use the Fresha Services, or upon such date, as Fresha may notify to Partner from time to time.

Fresha may at any time determine that any part of the Fresha Services (including but not limited to any specific Additional Service) shall not be eligible to be paid for using free Credits. Fresha may also determine at any time, without notice, that free Credits shall cease and may remove any outstanding free Credits held by a Partner and not allocated to any Service Fee.

Applicable debits (further "Service fees") include:

Booking fee Service Fees owed to Fresha for provision of the Fresha Booking Services and/or the Fresha Payment Services, as applicable;
Payment fee Service Fees owed to Fresha for the Partner's use of the Fresha Payment Services;
New client fee Service Fees owed to Fresha by the Partner for each new Client referred to the Partner by the Fresha Platform.
Messaging and marketing fees (excluding Automated Messages which are paid for in advance at the time of purchase) Service Fees owed to Fresha by the Partner in exchange for Messaging and Marketing Services.
Terminal fee Service Fees owed to Fresha by the Partner in exchange for Terminals or other payment hardware.
Professional Services Service Fees owed to Fresha by the Partner in exchange for Professional Services. 
Photography fee Service Fees owed to Fresha by the Partner in exchange for Photography services.
Chargeback Service Fees imposed by Fresha as a result of loss Chargebacks related to the Partner's use of the Fresha Payment Services;
Chargeback fee Service Fees imposed by Fresha as a result of additional penalties from Chargebacks beyond the amount of loss;
Foreign exchange fee Service Fees owed to Fresha by the Partner in exchange for foreign exchange fees incurred by the Partner via the Fresha Payment Services.
Other fees Any other Service Fees owed to Fresha by the Partner in exchange for additional services in accordance with the applicable additional terms.

 

Applicable credits include:

Payment failure Credits owed by Fresha to a Partner to correct for failed payments;
Bonus Credits owed by Fresha to a Partner for bonuses granted by Fresha;
Refund Credits owed by Fresha to a Partner as a refund for Service Fees;
Credit Credits owed by Fresha to a Partner as a credit or grant towards future Service Fees;
Compensation Credits owed by Fresha to a Partner for other types of compensation.

 

How Partners can settle their Fresha invoices

The Partner shall make all payments due to Fresha through the Partner Credit Card or as otherwise agreed between Fresha and the Partner without any deduction, whether by way of set-off, withholding, counterclaim, discount or otherwise. If any sum due from the Partner to Fresha under these terms is not paid on or before the due date for payment, then (i) all sums owing by the Partner to Fresha shall become due and payable immediately; (ii) the Partner shall be responsible for any refunds, chargebacks, banking charges or other administrative expenses ("Bank Charges") incurred by Fresha as a result of Partner's late payment; and (iii) without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to Fresha, Fresha shall be entitled to:

  • deduct any sums payable to Fresha by the Partner and any such Bank Charges from any balance directly or indirectly collected by or on behalf of Fresha on behalf of the Partner before onward payment of the Current Balance to the Partner;
  • suspend or terminate its provision of the Fresha Services and this Agreement, including disabling the Online Partner Profile or access to the Fresha Platform or Fresha Widget, until arrangements as to payment or credit have been established which are satisfactory to Fresha; and
  • charge the Partner the cost of obtaining judgment or payment, including all reasonable professional costs (including legal fees) and other costs of issuing proceedings or otherwise pursuing a debt recovery procedure.

Payment methods

All payments due from Fresha to the Partner shall be made via bank transfer using the bank details provided by the Partner to Fresha in the Fresha Business Software (and as set out in the Invoice Statement). It is the Partner's responsibility to ensure that these details are correct. Fresha will only make payments due to the Partner directly to the Partner and cannot make payments to any third party. The Partner shall fully indemnify Fresha and hold Fresha harmless against any losses, damages or claims arising out of the Partner's failure to notify Fresha of a change of bank account details, including but not limited to any Bank Charges incurred by Fresha as a result.

In the event of a dispute between Fresha and the Partner, any undisputed amount of Service Fees will be paid in accordance with this Payment Methods section to Fresha. The Partner must notify Fresha of its disagreement within 10 days of receipt of the Invoice Statement setting out in detail the reason. If the Partner fails to do so, the Invoice Statement shall be deemed accepted by the Partner.

The Partner is responsible for withholding, reporting and remitting correct taxes applicable to the Service Fees in accordance with all applicable laws and the requests of the relevant tax authorities, including for any interest and penalties imposed for late payment or failure to withhold. If required, the Partner shall be solely responsible for agreeing with the relevant tax authorities on the tax treatment of the Service Fees. The Partner shall, on the request of Fresha, provide copies of tax payment certificates and/or tax exemption certificates. The Partner represents and warrants that it is duly registered with all relevant tax authorities, where applicable.

In case of concerns or disputes

We  may remove your Online Partner Profile from the Fresha Platform if we assess, in our sole discretion:

  • that the Partner is in violation of applicable law (including any local statutory or regulatory requirements or guidance), has failed to comply with this Agreement, Fresha's policies or standards or court order;
  • that Partner's use of the Fresha Services may be harmful or objectionable to Fresha, Clients, or third parties:
  • that the Partner has a high volume of cancelled appointments or unfulfilled orders through the Fresha Business Software;
  • that the Partner consistently receives low or otherwise negative Client ratings, or responds to such ratings unprofessionally, or

If a Partner fails to honour any of its obligations listed above, the Partner shall be considered to be in material breach of this Agreement and may forfeit any payments due to it in connection with that Fresha Booking.

Where we exercise our right to remove Online Partner Profiles under this section, your access to and benefits from the Fresha Widget may also be removed.

 

Suspending or terminating your access to Fresha

This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and will continue in effect unless terminated in writing on not less than 30 days' written notice by either party.

Either party shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement with immediate effect by written notice to the other if:

  • the other party commits a material breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement, and either that breach is not capable of being remedied or, in the case of a breach capable of remedy, that party fails to remedy the same within 30 days after receipt of a written notice giving full particulars of the breach and requiring it to be remedied;
  • the other party is in persistent non-material breach (whether remediable or not) of any of the provisions of this Agreement;
  • (where such termination is permitted by law) the other:
  • becomes insolvent,
  • makes a composition with its creditors,
  • an encumbrancer takes possession, or a receiver or administrator is appointed over its undertaking or the whole or a substantial part of any of the property or assets of that other party or an order is made, or an effective resolution is passed for its administration, receivership, liquidation, winding-up or other similar process, or has any distress, execution or other process levied or enforced against the whole or a substantial part of its assets (which is not discharged, paid out, withdrawn or removed within 28 days);
  • that other party makes any voluntary arrangement with its creditors or becomes subject to an administration order;

  • anything equivalent or substantially similar to any of the foregoing under the law of any jurisdiction occurs in relation to that other party; or the other party ceases or threatens to cease, to carry on business.

For the purposes of this Suspending or terminating your access to Fresha section, in order for it to be possible to remedy a breach, it must be possible to take steps so as to put the other party into the same position which (save as to the date) it would have been in if the breach had never occurred.

Termination of this Agreement, however arising, shall not affect any of the parties' rights and remedies that have accrued as at termination.

The Partner acknowledges that ownership of all Intellectual Property Rights in or relating to Clients' feedback and Clients' personal data in the Fresha Business Software (including any database rights) shall vest in Fresha. The Partner irrevocably and unconditionally assigns with full title guarantee all such rights to Fresha. Fresha grants the Partner a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use such Intellectual Property Rights to operate its business subject to the Partner's ongoing compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.

The Partner shall promptly bring to the attention of Fresha any improper or wrongful use of any Intellectual Property Rights of Fresha which comes to the Partner's notice.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Partner and Fresha may agree in writing to amend any provision of this Agreement without the consent of any of the Indemnified Third Parties, even if that amendment affects or will affect the rights conferred on any Indemnified Third Party hereunder.
