Version 3.0 — [being completed]
Parties
- [being completed], [being completed], registration number [being completed], tax ID [being completed], represented by [being completed] (the Operator), and
- the taxi carrier whose details are entered in the App at registration: company name, registered office, registration number, tax ID and taxi authorisation number (the Carrier).
Article 1Purpose
1.1The Operator provides the Carrier with an electronic intermediation service: it transmits passenger orders, displays the price, enables card payment and ride tracking, and keeps a record of rides.
1.2Passengers are carried by the Carrier, in its own name and for its own account, through drivers who meet the conditions of article 3. The contract of carriage is concluded between the passenger and the Carrier.
1.3This agreement creates no employment, agency or partnership between the Operator and the Carrier or its drivers.
Article 2Definitions
The terms App, Passenger, Ride and Tariff have the meaning given in the Vozi Platform Terms of Use. A Driver is a person who drives the taxi vehicle on behalf of the Carrier and holds a taxi licence.
Article 3Conditions of cooperation
3.1Throughout the agreement, the Carrier must have:
- a valid authorisation from the competent local authority to provide taxi transport;
- for each Driver, a valid taxi licence and a category B driving licence; each Driver is either the sole trader themself or employed by the Carrier ([being completed]);
- a vehicle owned or leased by the Carrier, with a vehicle taxi licence, registered in the Republic of Serbia, roadworthy, with the markings and equipment required for a taxi, no older than 10 years;
- compulsory vehicle insurance and public transport passenger accident insurance;
- a device or means of issuing a fiscal receipt where required by law [being completed].
3.2The Carrier provides the documents in Annex 1 before the account is activated and updates them before they expire.
3.3The Operator activates the account only after checking the documents. The Operator automatically stops intermediation for any Carrier or Driver whose authorisation, licence or insurance expires or ceases to be valid, and informs them immediately.
3.4The Carrier may be a natural person registered as a sole trader who drives their own taxi. In that case the sole trader is both Carrier and Driver and provides the Annex 1 documents in both capacities. Before registration, the Operator may inform such a person of the steps to obtain the authorisation and taxi licence, but does not carry out those procedures or guarantee their outcome.
3.5Each Driver has their own account in the App, linked to the Carrier they work for. The Carrier has no administrator access to its Drivers' accounts.
Article 4Document checks
4.1Documents are checked with an automatic reading and cross-checking tool. The Driver's selfie is compared with the ID card photo only with the Driver's explicit consent; the Driver may choose verification without biometrics.
4.2Every refusal is reviewed by a member of the Operator's staff before it becomes final. The Carrier and the Driver may state their views and contest the decision within 15 days.
Article 5Carrier obligations
The Carrier shall, itself and through its Drivers:
- carry passengers in accordance with the rules on passenger transport, road safety and tax;
- charge a passenger paying in cash no more than the price shown in the App;
- issue the passenger a receipt where required by law;
- treat passengers courteously and without discrimination on any ground;
- not drive under the influence of alcohol or psychoactive substances;
- not record passengers without their knowledge and consent;
- not use passenger data for anything other than performing the Ride;
- allow only the Drivers it has declared to use its account;
- inform the Operator of any traffic accident or incident during a Ride within 24 hours.
Article 6Accepting and cancelling rides
6.1The Carrier and Driver freely decide when they are available in the App. There is no minimum number of hours or rides.
6.2The Driver may decline an offered ride without consequences.
6.3If the Driver cancels a ride they accepted, the Carrier pays a fee of 20% of the ride price, with a minimum of 200 RSD for each unjustified cancellation. A cancellation is justified if the passenger endangers safety or breaches the Terms, if the vehicle is defective, or because of the Driver's illness or accident, with a short explanation in the App.

9.6To receive payouts, the Carrier accepts Stripe's Connected Account Agreement with a separate click before the first payout.
Article 10Cash collection risk
For Rides paid in cash, the Driver collects payment. If the passenger does not pay, the Carrier informs the Operator, which provides on request the Ride data needed for recovery and may exclude the passenger. In that case no commission is due if non-payment is reported within 24 hours.
Article 11Ratings
11.1Passengers may rate the Ride. The Driver's rating is shown to passengers.
11.1aIn the App, the Driver sees their Ride history, the total amount earned through Rides and their average rating. The Driver cannot change ratings but may report a rating under the Rules on ratings and reports.
11.2A low average rating does not by itself lead to automatic account closure. The Operator informs the Carrier, considers the circumstances and may propose measures before any decision under article 13.
Article 12Personal data protection
12.1The Operator processes the data of the Carrier and Drivers in accordance with the Privacy Policy, to perform this agreement and its legal obligations. A Driver's location is processed only while the Driver is online and during Rides.
