Notwithstanding the foregoing, Willdo is not obligated to pay the Pro for User’s failure to pay for services.
Users of the Willdo Platform will be required to provide their credit card and/or bank account details to Willdo and the Payment Service Provider retained by Willdo (the “PSP”). Pros are responsible for invoicing their Clients within 24 hours of the work being performed even if the service is not completed in its entirety or is designed as “ongoing”. Users will be responsible for paying the invoice for each service (the “Invoice”), which will include
(i) the pricing terms of the service agreed with and provided by a Pro (“Service Payment”),
(ii) any out of pocket expenses agreed with and submitted by a Pros in connection with the Service,
(iii) any tip or gratuity, if applicable,
(iv) the service charge Company assesses for the TaskRabbit Platform, variable based on the Task Payment amount

Pros will be responsible for paying
(a) registration fees (applicable to Pro’s registrants),
(b) cancellation fees, if applicable and
(b) repayment of erroneous payments.
Pros will be required to register with the PSP, agree to Terms of Service of the PSP and go through a vetting process at the request of the PSP to set up their account with the PSP. Terms of Service between pros and the PSP retained by Willdo are available here (the “PSP Agreement”). By accepting these Terms of Use, each pro agrees that they have downloaded or printed, and reviewed and agreed to the PSP Agreement. Please note that Willdo is not a party to the PSP Agreement and that you, the PSP and any other parties listed in the PSP Agreement (currently, stripe) are the parties to the PSP Agreement and that Willdo has no obligations or liability to any Pro under the PSP Agreement.
To help prevent fraud and safeguard members information from the risk of unauthorized access, The Company and/or the PSP may validate an account before activation. As part of the account validation, a very temporary charge is placed on account associated with the member and then refunded within 1-3 business days.
When the users receive confirmation through the Willdo Platform or via email that a service has been completed, the user automatically authorizes Willdo to provide user’s payment details to the PSP for processing of the service Payment, out of pocket expenses owed to the Pro, and the service charge and trust and support fees owed to The Company for the use of the willdo Platform. You may be charged a cancellation fee through the PSP if you book a service, but cancel it before it is completed, as set forth in the Willdo Cancelation Policy or if you agree to perform a service but fail to complete it, as may be set forth in the Willdo Cancelation Policy.
Willdo reserves the right, in its sole discretion (but not the obligation), upon request from User or Pro or upon notice of any potential fraud, unauthorized charges or other misuse of the Willdo Platform, to (i) place a hold on any service Payment and out of pocket expenses, or (ii) refund, provide credits or arrange for the PSP to do so.

Users must notify Willdo either by changing the date or hours of the requested Professional Service through the Willdo Platform or by visiting the Willdo Help Center at www.willdo.com/help/
Any Payments paid outside of the Willdo Platform are not subject to our Willdo satisfaction Guarantee. Except for the Willdo satisfaction Guarantee and the Refund Policy, no refunds or credits will be provided once the User’s credit card has been charged, except that at our sole discretion, refunds or credits may be granted in extenuating circumstances, because of specific promotions, or to correct any errors we have made.
