("EatOkra" or "we" or "our") and govern your access to and use of our website (http://www.eatokra.com) (the "Website") and our App (EatOkra) (the "App") and our services (the Website, the App and the services are collectively referred to as the "Platform"), as well as our services offered through this Platform (the "Services"). EatOkra is not a restaurant, delivery service, or food preparation business.,
By accessing this Platform in any way, including, without limitation, browsing or using the Platform, using any information, and/or submitting information to EatOkra, you agree to and are bound by the terms, conditions, policies, and notices contained or referenced on this page.
From time to time, we may update this Platform and these Terms. Your continued use of this Platform—including downloading, installing, and/or using the App—after we post any changes to these Terms constitutes your agreement to those changes. You agree to review these Terms periodically to ensure that you are familiar with the most recent version. EatOkra may, in its sole discretion and at any time, discontinue this Platform, or any part thereof, with or without notice, or may prevent your use of this Platform with or without notice to you. If you do not agree to these Terms, please stop using the site and uninstall the App immediately. You agree that you do not have any rights in this Platform. EatOkra will have no liability to you if this Platform, or any of its part, is discontinued or your ability to access the App or any content you may have posted on the Platform is terminated.
This Platform is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 13. You must be at least 13 years of age to access and use the Platform. If you are under 13 years of age (or the age of legal majority where you live), you may only use the Platform under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms. If you are a parent or legal guardian of a User under the age of 13 (or the age of legal majority), you agree to be fully responsible for the acts or omissions of such User in connection with the Platform.
Each User must create and register an account to use certain functionality and features of the Platform. If you register for an account, you will have to provide a password, address, email address, phone number, and/or financial information (including payment card information) ("Account Information"). You must provide accurate, truthful, current, and complete Account Information and promptly update this information if it changes. EatOkra has no liability for failure to deliver notices that result from inaccurate account information or otherwise. Some Account Information, specifically your name and phone number, may be shared with EatOkra’s software provider called Incentivio.
Incentivio is a separate platform owned by a different entity from EatOkra. Any personal information you provide while accessing and/or using our Services is governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, process, and use your personal information in connection with the Services, as well as your privacy rights.
After creating an account, you may utilize the many functionalities of the Platform, such as: recommending a business that is at least 50% Black-owned, leaving a review of a Featured Restaurant or a Featured Vendor, and determining the hours of operation of a Featured Restaurant.
5.1 Authority and Agreements All potential restaurant business owners (the “Featured Restaurants”) and potential vendor business owners (the “Featured Vendors”) (collectively, “Featured Merchants”) who desire to have their business listed on the Platform must represent to EatOkra that you have the authority to bind such business, and that your acceptance of these Terms will be treated as acceptance by that business. Additionally, Featured Merchants must complete and sign a separate Merchant Order Form, which incorporates these Terms by reference.
Each Featured Restaurant must be at least 50% black-owned. In addition, each Featured Restaurant may also have a separate contractual relationship with (i) any of EatOkra’s software providers (i.e., Incentivio) and (ii) one of our booking partners and/or our third-party delivery app partners, such as UberEats, GrubHub, DoorDash, and/or other delivery partners we engage from time to time (“Delivery Partners”). The Delivery Partners may have their own terms, and you may be subject to such specific terms and conditions, which are not part of these Terms.
Each Featured Vendor must be at least 50% black-owned and shall agree with EatOkra’s terms and conditions for Caterers and may also have a separate contractual relationship with any of EatOkra’s software providers (i.e., Incentivio). Those providers may have their terms, and your business may be subject to such specific terms and conditions, which are not part of these Terms.
Moreover, if a Featured Restaurant or a Featured Vendor is listed on the App, the restaurant or vendor owner must maintain all data regarding their restaurant or vendor listing and ensure that it is accurate and up to date.
EatOkra is not responsible for updating the Featured Restaurant or the Featured Vendor information. All business owners must guarantee that your products or services are not fraudulent, illegal, counterfeit, or stolen.
5.2 Delivery and Pricing Featured Merchants are responsible for determining delivery areas and item pricing. As a Featured Merchant, you acknowledge that EatOkra will use such information provided by Featured Merchants to limit the Featured Merchant’s ability to sell items only to those potential Customers who request delivery within the delivery area. Featured Merchants are also responsible for providing EatOkra with projected timelines for the preparation of the Featured Merchant's orders. EatOkra may use Featured Merchant’s preparation timelines, geolocation, projection of delivery time, and/or other technologies and data available to EatOkra in determining the estimated time for delivery that will be displayed in the Platform for all of the Featured Merchant's applicable items. Any geolocation tracking will be dependent on the individual consent of the Featured Merchant or Delivery Partners and will cease upon completion of each order.
5.3 Required Licenses Featured Merchants must hold and maintain any and all required licenses. Upon EatOkra’s request, Featured Merchants must provide copies of applicable required licenses to EatOkra. Featured Merchants must immediately notify EatOkra of any change, expiration, revocation, renewal, or termination of any applicable required licenses and will, upon EatOkra’s request, provide copies of any new applicable required licenses to EatOkra. Failure to comply with Featured Merchant’s obligations in this section may result, at the sole discretion of EatOkra, in the suspension and/or removal of the Featured Merchant from the Platform.
5.4 Service Fees EatOkra will charge Featured Merchants the Service Fee on orders placed through the Platform.
Delivery Partners will charge Customers the “Delivery Fee” on the Featured Merchant’s behalf for the Featured Merchant’s provision of delivery services. Delivery Partners will charge Customers the Delivery Fee for all applicable items and remit such Delivery Fee to the Featured Merchant. EatOkra and/or the Delivery Partners reserve the right to charge Customers additional delivery fees on the Featured Merchant's behalf, including but not limited to, a small basket fee.
If any of Featured Merchant’s Locations are in jurisdictions that prohibit the Featured Merchant from paying EatOkra percentage-based fees for facilitating the delivery of Alcohol Items and/or certain other services with respect to Alcohol Items, EatOkra will charge the Featured Merchant the Alcohol Service Fee as required by each such jurisdiction’s Laws for orders in such Locations. For clarity, EatOkra will continue to charge Featured Merchant the applicable Service Fee for all other Food Items as set forth elsewhere in these Terms, as well as the applicable Service Fee for any other service that EatOkra may provide Featured Merchant. EatOkra may invoice Featured Merchants for any owed Service Fees, and Featured Merchants must make such payment in accordance with the terms of such invoice.
If fee cap laws require EatOkra to implement fee cap law requirements, then EatOkra will, respectively: charge the Featured Merchant a Service Fee as permitted by those fee cap laws for that Location, those Food Items or Services, or the applicable Sales Channel; allow the Featured Merchant to terminate this Agreement as required by the fee cap law; or provide the benefits to Featured Merchant required by the fee cap law.
EatOkra will charge the Featured Merchant the Device Fee for each Device supplied to the Featured Merchant.
EatOkra may charge Customers fees that are retained by EatOkra, at EatOkra's sole discretion, including but not limited to membership subscription fees, service fees, and delivery fees (which are distinct from the Delivery Fee between Featured Merchants and Delivery Partners).
If this Agreement requires EatOkra to update its internal technology, accounting, or other systems, such updates may not occur immediately from the Effective Date. Instead, EatOkra may implement such updates within a reasonable period after the Effective Date, and they will take effect from the date that the technology, accounting, or other system is updated rather than the Effective Date.
All fees charged by EatOkra to Featured Merchants are exclusive of applicable Sales Taxes. Where applicable, EatOkra will charge Sales Taxes in addition to (and may collect Sales Taxes in the same manner as) the associated fee.
5.5 Food Items Featured Merchants must make Food Items available for purchase through the Platforms during normal business hours and ensure the menu of available Food Items is accurate.
Featured Merchants must: (a) prepare, handle, store, label, and package all Food Items in accordance with applicable Laws, including without limitation Food Safety Standards, Laws related to the Food Items or packaging materials used, and, if applicable, Alcohol Safety Standards; (b) identify Food Items correctly, particularly where the Food Items may be subject to age restrictions or identification requirements; (c) ensure that the contents of its menu includes the Item criteria for each Item (including any notifications about ingredients, nutritional information, allergen information, alcoholic content (if applicable), etc.), which are accurate and comply with all applicable Laws; and (d) where the Customer may need to prepare, use, or assemble Food Items in a particular way, include instructions for such preparation, use, or assembly, which are accurate and comply with all applicable Laws.
Featured Merchants must package Food Items appropriately for delivery, including: (a) ensuring that Food Items provided to a delivery partner are collectively able to fit into, and are appropriate for transport in a standard midsize motor vehicle and do not exceed 50 pounds per package, box, or parcel; (b) any protection necessary to prevent tampering or damage due to any cause, including inclement weather or the nature of the Food Items themselves; (c) using appropriate preservation methods to ensure that the Food Items arrive as intended by a Featured Merchant, as reasonably expected by the Customer, and that the specific Item is delivered in a safe condition, including, where applicable, being safe for consumption; and (d) providing any certifications, labeling, protection, or instructions as appropriate or as required by Laws.
Featured Merchants are responsible for any reimbursement costs related to Customer refunds for issues within the Featured Merchant’s control, including but not limited to: damaged, missing, or incomplete Food Items; Food Items not cooked thoroughly; and Food Items not prepared in accordance with the Featured Merchant’s internal standards. Featured Merchants hereby authorize EatOkra to deduct such reimbursement costs from the payment EatOkra remits to such Featured Merchant.
5.6 Liability EatOkra is not responsible or liable for the actions or inactions of a Customer in relation to any of the Featured Merchant's activities. The Featured Merchant agrees that they have the sole responsibility for any obligations or liabilities to the Featured Merchant, Customers, or other third parties that arise from or relate to the Featured Merchant's provision of delivery services. The Featured Merchant agrees that they are each solely responsible for: (a) any liability arising from or relating to a Customer or any other third party in connection with the delivery services; and (b) taking such precautions as may be reasonable and proper, including, without limitation, maintaining insurance in accordance with applicable Laws and conducting thorough background check investigations in connection with the delivery services. Section 18 (“Governing Law”) of these Terms contains provisions which will govern any claims that the Parties may have against each other, including a mandatory arbitration provision.

EatOkra may revise these Terms at any time without notice. By accessing and/or using the Services, you agree to be bound by the then current version of these Terms.
These Terms are intended to require arbitration of every claim or dispute that lawfully can be arbitrated, except for those claims and disputes which by the terms of this Agreement are expressly excluded from arbitration. The parties will attempt to resolve all disputes between the Parties arising out of or relating to these Terms amicably through good faith negotiations upon the written request of any Party.
In the event that any dispute cannot be resolved within a period of forty-five (45) days after notice of a dispute has been given, all such disputes will, at the election of either party, be finally resolved by final and binding arbitration in the state of New York administered by JAMS, and in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS then in effect, by one arbitrator with substantial experience in the technology industry selected in accordance with JAMS rules.
All disputes will be resolved on an individual basis and neither party has the right to arbitrate on a class action basis any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, or the interpretation, enforceability, performance, breach, termination, or validity thereof, including this arbitration clause.
The arbitrator will have the authority to allocate between the parties the costs of arbitration (including service fees, arbitrator fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, and all other fees and expenses related to the arbitration) in such equitable manner as the arbitrator may determine. Judgment on the arbitrator’s award will be final and binding, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, each party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to any dispute related to the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation of a party’s intellectual property rights or breach of confidentiality obligations.
