Terms of Service

This Agreement (‘Agreement’) constitutes a legal agreement between you (‘you’, the ‘Client’) and Oppizi. Oppizi operates the following services:

1. an offline Client acquisition campaign service through which Clients (‘Clients’) can request the creation of offline marketing campaigns, including the production of physical marketing material and apparel and the provision of miscellaneous other services incidental thereto, but excluding the Distribution Services (the ‘Campaign Services’);

2. a physical marketing material distribution service provider marketplace platform as set out in the Schedule to this Agreement (the ‘Marketplace Services’) through which Clients can request the services of independent third-party physical marketing material distribution services providers (‘Distribution Providers’) and who provide to the Clients physical marketing material distribution services as set out in the Schedule (the ‘Distribution Services’).

Oppizi does not offer the Distribution Services itself but is a third-party facilitator of the contracts between the Client and the Distribution Providers. Accordingly, Oppizi can receive and confirm Clients’ requests for Distribution Services, issue invoices on behalf of the Distribution Providers and pass on payments to the Distribution Providers as their limited collection agent.

The Client enters into two separate types of contractual relationship, the first contract being with Oppizi, governing the access to and use of the Campaign Services and the Marketplace Services in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the second contract being with each Distribution Provider for the provision of the Distribution Services (‘Distribution Agreement’).

This document constitutes the terms and conditions relating to the Campaign Services and forms a part of the Agreement.

These General Conditions apply to all products and services provided by Oppizi to the Client to the exclusion of any purchase order or other document submitted by the Client to Oppizi.

Except as may be expressly agreed in this Agreement, each party shall be responsible for its costs and expenses associated with its performance under this Agreement.

5. Payment Terms

Oppizi shall deliver to the Client monthly billing statements (each, a ‘Fortnightly Statement’) for Distribution Fees to be incurred in advance of the Distribution Services being provided. Both parties understand and  agree that a Fortnightly Statement is issued by Oppizi only with the purpose of collecting Distribution Fees on behalf of third party independent Distribution Providers providing Distribution Services to the Client and does not serve as an invoice for any services provided by Oppizi as Oppizi does not provide the Distribution Services or any other services provided by the Distribution Providers. Each Fortnightly Statement shall be payable in full by the Client after the creation of any Missions and in advance of the provision of any Distribution Services. Unless expressly stated otherwise in this agreement, all amounts payable are exclusive of VAT. If VAT is payable on any supply made under this agreement by Oppizi, for which the consideration is not expressly stated to include VAT, the Client agrees to pay Oppizi an additional amount equal to the VAT at the same time that the consideration for the supply, or the first part of the consideration for the supply (as the case may be), is to be provided. The Client agrees to provide information that Oppizi may reasonably request in order for Oppizi to be able to comply with its tax reporting obligations including, but not limited to, the Client’s VAT registration number. All payments with respect to Distribution Fees shall be processed in VAT. All payments are non-refundable except as may be expressly provided otherwise herein, or required by UK Consumer Law.
