Honest Day’s Work Driver Addendum
This Honest Day’s Work Driver Addendum supplements the Agreement between you and Honest
Day’s Work with additional terms and conditions that are applicable to your provision of
Driver Services through the James App. Capitalized terms herein have the meaning set forth in the
Agreement.
Please read this Addendum carefully as it contains important legal obligations. By accepting this
Addendum and creating a Driver account on the James App, you will create a legally enforceable agreement.
If you do not agree with all the terms of this Addendum, you should not submit an application to provide
rides through the James App.
1. Driver Payments
You are entitled to a Driver Payment for the Driver Services you perform for Riders, as provided in the
Agreement and this Driver Addendum. The “Driver Payment” for a completed ride consists of the
Charges entered by you in the James App after the conclusion of a ride plus the tip determined by the
Rider and minus the Service Fee and taxes collected by Honest Day’s Work. While Honest Day’s Work
may assist you in calculating a Trip Estimate, you, and not Honest Day’s Work, are solely responsible for
determining the Charges with the exception of taxes, tips and Service Fees. The Charges include your
fare, cancellation fees, damage fees, fees for special services, tolls, wait times, distance surcharges and
additional destinations requested by a Rider. You may also determine whether to offer the Rider any
discounts. You must input the Charges into the James App within one hour after the conclusion of a ride.
2. Payments, Adjustments and Settlement
Honest Day’s Work will collect payments owed to you by Riders as your limited payment collection agent
and you agree that the receipt of such payments by Honest Day’s Work satisfies the payer’s obligation to
you. Honest Day’s Work reserves the right to adjust or withhold all or a portion of a Driver Payment or
other payment owed to you (except tips) (i) if we believe that you have attempted to defraud or abuse
Riders, Honest Day’s Work, or Honest Day’s Work’s payment systems and (ii) for chargebacks in the
amount of $15 USD per chargeback, which may be increased by our third-party payment processor from
time to time, and the total amount of the base fare and any other charges for the ride, as applicable.
Honest Day’s Work’s decision to adjust or withhold the Driver Payment or other payment in any way shall
be exercised in a reasonable manner. If you have agreed to any other amounts being deducted from your
Driver Payments and/or other payments with any party (such as vehicle rental or lease payments), those
amounts will be deducted before remittance to you, and we may determine the order of these other
deductions if allowed by law. We will use reasonable efforts to ensure that your Driver Payment and any
other payments to you will be paid to you on at least a bi-weekly basis. You acknowledge and agree that
all payments owed to you shall not include any interest and will be net of any amounts that we are
required to withhold by law.
3. Honest Day’s Work Fees
Under its Terms of Service, Honest Day’s Work charges Riders a Service Fee for each completed ride.
Drivers will not be charged a Service Fee.
4. Payment Processing
Driver Payments will be processed by Honest Day’s Work and paid to you through your Stripe account,
once it is set up and operational, or, if we are unable to process Driver Payments through our third-party
Payment Processor for any reason, via another method.
