  2. You shall be paid a Journey Fee for Ride-Hailing Services fulfilled by you and/or your Appointed Drivers.
  1. Customers are able to make requests for Ride-Hailing Services via the Bolt Platform to be provided immediately or (where available) at a specified time.
  2. Please note that Bolt does not control Customers or Passengers and therefore:
  1. Bolt does not guarantee that there will be opportunities to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services. 
  2. Bolt cannot be responsible for the actions (or inactions) of Customers and Passengers.
    Requests for Ride-Hailing Services
  1. In response to requests for Ride-Hailing Services made by Customers, Bolt will:
  1. determine both an estimated Fare and an estimated Journey Fee for the Ride-Hailing Services taking into account:
  1. the route and time of the requested Ride-Hailing Services; 
  2. (where available) the Category selected by the Customer; and
  3. (where available) whether the Customer intends for a Driver to arrive at the relevant pick-up location immediately or at a specified time;
  4. other marketplace factors such as the availability of and demand for Drivers by Customers; 
  1. (subject to sections 5.5 5.6 and 5.7) invite Drivers within reasonable proximity of the pick-up location to indicate their willingness to fulfil the Ride-Hailing Services on behalf of Bolt, taking into account (for the purpose of determining any appropriate order and/or timing of circulating invitations to Drivers):
  1. the factors set out in section 5.4.1;
  2. other factors to expedite the potential arrangement of the Ride-Hailing Services in the relevant marketplace including, for example, the estimated time of arrival of Drivers to the applicable pick-up location and whether Drivers are already fulfilling Ride-Hailing Services;
  3. any filters or preferences made available and used by Drivers in the Driver App (for example, the ability for a Driver to set a maximum distance they are willing to travel to reach a pick-up location);
  1. In some locations that have high volumes of requests and an abundance of online Users, such as at airports, Bolt may implement a “first in, first out” queuing system of inviting Drivers to indicate their willingness to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services. When such queuing systems are in place these will be shown to Drivers in the Driver App.
  2. For the purposes of expediting the potential arrangement of Ride-Hailing Services and to minimise unsuitable matches and unsatisfactory experiences, Bolt shall take into account circumstances where a specific Customer or Driver (as applicable) has previously provided significant negative feedback in respect of a specific Customer of Driver (as applicable) and will not invite that Driver to indicate their willingness to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services to that Customer.
  3. Where available, Drivers will be able to refine the invitations to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services that they receive by, for example, setting a radius to exclude requests or by setting preferred pricing components. The availability of such features will be shown to Drivers in the Driver App.
  4. When a Driver is invited via the Driver App to indicate their willingness to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services the Driver App will show:
  1. the estimated Journey Fee and the basis on which it is calculated (including any Toll Payments);
  2. the requested pick-up point
  3. the requested destination; and
  4. a scheduled pick-up time (if this is not ‘immediately’).
  1. Upon a Driver indicating their willingness to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services, please note that Bolt will expect a Driver to proceed to the relevant pick-up point without unreasonable delay (or, if applicable, to arrive at the specified time).
  2. For the avoidance of doubt:
  1. Bolt’s agreement(s) for the sale of Ride-Hailing Services fulfilled by you will be made with the relevant Customer(s) upon commencement of the applicable Journey Period(s); and
  2. you and any Appointed Drivers are entitled to decline or refuse to enter into agreements for Ride-Hailing Services with any Customer at any time subject only to sections 4.9, 4.10.1 and 4.10.2.
  1. When Ride-Hailing Services have concluded (or otherwise end) the applicable Journey Fee payable to you will be calculated on the basis that has been shown in the Driver App prior to commencement of the Ride-Hailing Services.
  2. Please note that you shall not be entitled to a Journey Fee in circumstances where the Passenger is not correctly identified and another person is transported in error.

    Cancellation Fees and Cleaning Fees
  3. You agree that the applicable Cancellation Fee that Bolt will pay to you in the event that a Customer cancels their request (or otherwise fails to enter into an arrangement) for Ride-Hailing Services after expiry of the Cooling-Off Period shall be fifty (50) DKK or such higher amount as is displayed in the Driver App on a per Category and/or per service basis subject to section 5.13.
  4. Please note that our agreement to pay a Cancellation Fee is subject to you having a genuine intention to fulfil the applicable Ride-Hailing Services and therefore Bolt is not obliged to pay this fee to you when circumstances that indicate that has not been the case (for example, if no reasonable attempt has been made by the applicable Driver to arrive at the pick-up location at the relevant time).
  5. You agree that the applicable Cleaning Fee that Bolt will pay to you in the event that a vehicle is made dirty, stained, noxious or similar to the extent that it has become unsuitable for transport and requires cleaning by a Passenger shall be calculated on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the extent of the damage and the necessary work required. The fee amount can also be displayed in the Driver App per Category and/or per service basis subject to section 5.15.
  6. Please note that our agreement to pay a Cleaning Fee to you is subject to you being able to evidence that the vehicle has been soiled by the relevant Passenger. We will not pay this fee to you if you are unable to provide evidence in support of your claim. We therefore recommend that you take photographic evidence of such circumstances and provide all relevant information to our support team as soon as possible when it is safe to do so.

    Access to Categories
  7. Bolt may make different Categories available in a market to enable the matching of (i) Service Providers that can fulfil services in accordance with that Category with (ii) Customers that would prefer the service to be fulfilled in accordance with that Category. For example, if a ‘premium vehicle’ Category is available, Bolt will aim to connect Customers selecting that Category exclusively with Service Providers that are able to fulfil services using an electric vehicle.
  8. The Categories available to a Driver will be determined by factors relevant to the applicable Categories and marketplace (for example, an ‘electric vehicle’ would be required to access the ‘electric vehicle’ category). The right for any Driver to access a Category will therefore lapse when the Driver is unable to meet the requirements that apply to that Category (see section 4.7.3).
  9. For more information on the Categories available in a marketplace, please contact our support team.

    Promotions
  10. Bolt may at its discretion make promotions available to Service Providers where Bolt will arrange to provide Service Providers with a benefit for their use of the Bolt Platform.
  11. When a promotion is offered by Bolt to Service Providers:
  1. Receipt of the benefit of the promotion is subject to completion of the applicable requirements of that promotion. 
  2. The promotion is subject to compliance with these Platform Terms. Bolt therefore reserves the right to deny the benefit of any promotion when there have been breaches of these Platform Terms (including participation in Illegitimate Services). Bolt will otherwise never deny the benefit of any promotion that has been legitimately fulfilled.
  3. Bolt will never make any access to the Bolt Platform conditional on completion of all the applicable requirements of any promotion. 
  1. Appointing Drivers to act on your behalfOverview
  1. Where available, you may at your convenience register and appoint other individuals as Drivers to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services on your behalf (i.e. ‘Appointed Drivers’) in accordance with this section 6
  2. We recommend that you review this section 6 carefully and check the suitability of individuals before you proceed with making any appointments.

    Making appointments
  3. To make an appointment, you will need to contact Bolt at [email protected], with the names and contact details of your proposed Appointed Driver(s). Bolt will then confirm the extent that any additional information is required as is applicable to the market in which the appointment is being made.
  4. Please note that although Bolt has no right to veto or refuse the appointment of any suitably qualified individual as an Appointed Driver, an individual may not be registered as an Appointed Driver if they have previously:
  1. been a Service Provider that has acted in breach of these Platform Terms (including any previous version); or
  2. caused a breach of these Platform Terms (including any previous version) by another Service Provider (i.e. when acting on that Service Provider’s behalf).
  1. The right for any Appointed Driver to access the Bolt Platform to review opportunities to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services on your behalf is only granted for such periods that the Appointed Driver is lawfully able to fulfil Ride-Hailing Services (see section 4.7.1). You will therefore need to arrange to provide Bolt with copies of documentation for the purposes of verifying that Ride-Hailing Services can be lawfully fulfilled by your proposed Appointed Driver(s) including (where applicable) evidence of their right to work in the market.
  2. If you have any queries on this process, please make enquiries at [email protected].
