Merchant Service Agreement
This Merchant Service Agreement ("Agreement") governs your use of Kutoot Business platform services, including payment facilitation, commissions, settlements, and related merchant operations.
By accepting this agreement during onboarding, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these commercial terms in addition to the Kutoot Business Terms & Conditions.
1. Commission & platform fees
You agree that Kutoot may charge:
- Transaction-based commissions at the rate you select during onboarding (subject to your business category minimum)
- Performance-based or promotional fees where applicable
- Applicable taxes on platform fees as required by law
The minimum commission percentage for your business category is enforced at onboarding and may be updated by Kutoot with reasonable notice for future transactions.
You may voluntarily select a higher commission rate to improve your platform performance score where that program is available.
2. Fee changes
Kutoot may modify fee structures, introduce new pricing models, or adjust category minimums with reasonable notice through the merchant dashboard, email, or in-app notification.
Continued use of the platform after such notice constitutes acceptance of the updated commercial terms unless you terminate your merchant account as provided in the master Terms & Conditions.
3. Payout & settlement
3.1 Settlement cycle
Merchant settlements may be processed on a periodic basis (typically 15–20 days), subject to payment gateway timelines, banking systems, compliance verification, and reconciliation.
3.2 Deductions
Kutoot may deduct from settlements:
- Agreed commissions and applicable GST on platform fees
- Customer refunds and chargebacks
- Campaign or promotional adjustments
- Settlement corrections
3.3 Holds
Kutoot may withhold or delay payouts in cases involving fraud suspicion, high dispute ratios, compliance reviews, or verification requirements.
4. Performance programs
Kutoot may operate performance-based reward, incentive, or revenue-sharing programs for eligible merchants. Participation, eligibility, and payout structures are determined by Kutoot and may change from time to time.
Kutoot does not guarantee rewards, earnings, rankings, or fixed returns under such programs.
5. Merchant responsibilities
You remain solely responsible for:
- Accuracy of pricing, discounts, and offers displayed to customers
- Fulfillment of goods and services sold through your store
