Agreement 01 Customer
Customer Terms & Conditions
For customers placing orders, making payments and receiving deliveries or collecting food.
Effective Date: Last Updated:
01Introduction and agreement
These Customer Terms & Conditions (“Customer Terms”) are between GoBites LTD, incorporated in Ghana, and the person using its customer services (“you”). They govern the GoBites customer application, website, supported ordering channels, orders, delivery and pickup services made available through the platform. GoBites was founded in 2025 and incorporated in 2025.
Read these Customer Terms before creating an account or submitting an order. You agree to them when you expressly accept them during registration or checkout, or knowingly submit an order after they have been made available to you. Merely visiting this page does not create an obligation to purchase anything. You may save or print these terms and your order confirmation.
The Customer Terms are separate from the Courier Agreement and Merchant / Vendor Terms. The Customer Privacy Policy at GoBites Customer Privacy Policy explains personal-data processing; acceptance of these terms is not blanket consent to optional marketing or other processing that requires separate consent.
02GoBites, merchants and delivery services
GoBites provides technology, order coordination, customer support and the delivery services described when you order. The identified merchant supplies the food or other goods unless the listing expressly identifies GoBites as the seller. The order summary must identify the merchant and the relevant charges and fulfilment arrangements.
Merchants are responsible for their products, preparation, descriptions and applicable food-safety obligations. Couriers carry out delivery tasks through the platform. These roles do not remove GoBites’ responsibility for its own services, representations, payment security or other duties imposed by law. You may contact GoBites for assistance with an order regardless of which participant caused the problem.
04Accounts, telephone numbers and authentication
Provide accurate account and contact information, keep it current and protect your device, password and sign-in OTPs. Do not impersonate another person, create accounts to evade restrictions or allow unauthorised access. Notify support promptly if you suspect compromise.
You are responsible for purchases you authorise and for reasonable steps to secure your account. You are not automatically responsible for every unauthorised transaction merely because it appears on your account. Responsibility for misuse will be assessed on the evidence and applicable law, including obligations of GoBites and payment providers. Sign-in OTPs are different from delivery verification codes.
05Listings, ingredients and special instructions
Menus, prices, availability, photographs and ingredient information are provided by merchants and may change. Photographs may illustrate presentation; they must not materially misrepresent the product. GoBites may correct an error before acceptance and ask you to confirm a material change instead of silently changing your order or price.
Tell the merchant about relevant dietary needs before ordering and use available ingredient information. An allergy note alone is not a guarantee that a kitchen can prevent cross-contact. If suitability cannot be confirmed, do not order the item. This does not excuse inaccurate allergen information, unsafe food or any duty imposed on a merchant or GoBites.
06Placing and accepting an order
Before submitting, review the merchant, items, quantities, options, delivery or pickup selection, address, total charges and any cancellation conditions. You must have an opportunity to correct errors or withdraw before completing the transaction. A receipt acknowledging an order request or payment authorisation is not necessarily acceptance by the merchant.
An order is accepted when the platform or authorised ordering channel confirms acceptance. If a merchant rejects the order or cannot supply it, you will be informed and payment will be released or refunded as appropriate. Substitutions, material price changes and materially different delivery arrangements require your agreement. Keep the order reference for support.
08Payment providers and transaction records
Electronic payments may be processed by banks, Mobile Money operators or authorised payment providers under their own terms. GoBites may receive payment status and transaction references to reconcile your order. Do not send a Mobile Money PIN, banking password or financial authentication code to a merchant, courier or support agent.
A pending authorisation is not necessarily a completed debit. Where an order is not accepted, GoBites will arrange the appropriate release or refund and provide available confirmation. Provider processing times may vary, but references to provider delays do not displace any applicable statutory refund deadline or GoBites’ own obligations.
09Delivery addresses, access and handover
Provide an accurate delivery address, map pin or landmarks and a reachable contact number. Arrange lawful and safe access to the agreed handover point. You or an authorised recipient should be available at the communicated delivery time.
Couriers are not required to enter an unsafe property or perform unlawful or dangerous instructions. If safe delivery cannot be completed, GoBites will seek reasonable instructions or another safe handover arrangement. Address changes after acceptance are subject to feasibility and any additional charge disclosed and accepted before the change is made.
10Delivery timing and tracking
Arrival times are estimates unless an express delivery commitment is made. Preparation, traffic, weather, availability and access can affect delivery. GoBites will use reasonable care in coordinating delivery and communicating material delays; describing a time as an estimate does not excuse indefinite delay or failure to provide the agreed service.
Live tracking may be approximate or temporarily unavailable. If delivery becomes materially delayed or cannot be completed, contact support for the available options, which may include cancellation and refund where appropriate or required by law. A system status alone is not conclusive proof that you received the order.
11Pickup orders
Where pickup is offered, collect the order from the stated merchant location during the confirmed collection window and provide the requested order reference or handover code. Check the name, reference and accessible contents before leaving where reasonably possible.
If you cannot collect, contact support or the merchant promptly. Perishable food cannot be held indefinitely. Any charge for an uncollected order must reflect the disclosed terms, the stage of preparation and applicable rights. A merchant’s failure to prepare or make the order available is not a customer no-show.
12Delivery verification and unsuccessful delivery
Give a delivery PIN or confirmation code only at the appropriate stage of actual handover. Do not share a code prematurely or confirm receipt of an order you have not received. An authorised recipient may complete handover on your behalf.
If you cannot be reached, the courier or support should make reasonable contact attempts using the supplied details. An order may be returned, safely disposed of or otherwise handled on support instructions if delivery cannot reasonably be completed. It must not be left in an unsafe or unauthorised place. A disputed charge must be assessed using the circumstances and evidence, not only an automated “delivered” status.
13Customer cancellations
Request cancellation through the available order controls or support as soon as possible. Cancelling a payment instruction or closing the app does not necessarily cancel an accepted order. GoBites will confirm the outcome and explain any charge.
Before merchant acceptance, a cancellation should ordinarily receive a full refund or release of payment. After acceptance or preparation has begun, a charge may be justified for goods prepared or services already supplied where disclosed, reasonable and lawful. There is no blanket forfeiture of the entire order price regardless of circumstances. Mandatory consumer rights prevail over operational cancellation rules.
15Incorrect, missing, damaged or unsafe orders
Contact support promptly if an order is missing, incorrect, materially not as described, damaged, unsafe or not delivered. Provide the order reference and reasonably available evidence, such as photographs or details of missing items. Do not consume food you reasonably believe is unsafe; seek medical assistance where needed.
GoBites will investigate with the relevant merchant or courier and offer an appropriate remedy, which may include replacement, refund of affected items and associated charges, or another remedy required by law. A short operational reporting request is not a contractual extinction of statutory rights. Failure to photograph a problem does not automatically defeat a valid claim.
16Refunds and statutory cancellation rights
Refunds will ordinarily return to the original payment method unless you agree to another lawful method or the original method cannot receive the refund. Any alternative will be explained. Applicable statutory deadlines take precedence over provider estimates. Refund eligibility and amount will take account of what was supplied, the reason for the problem and your legal rights.
The general change-of-mind grace period under section 49 of Act 772 has exceptions, including certain everyday food deliveries, perishable goods, customised goods and services begun with the consumer’s consent. These exceptions do not remove remedies for defective, unsafe, misdescribed or undelivered goods, or other non-excludable rights. Where the statutory grace period applies to a non-exempt transaction, its cancellation and return rules will be honoured.
Nothing in these terms excludes the consumer protections in Act 772 or another applicable law. In particular, a failure to provide required transaction information may give rise to separate cancellation and refund rights. You may seek an explanation of a refusal and ask support to review it.
17Promotions, vouchers and credits
Promotions are subject to the eligibility, expiry, minimum spend, participating merchants and other conditions disclosed with the offer. Check the final total before ordering. A promotion does not guarantee continued availability of a merchant or item.
Do not misuse promotions through false identities, duplicate accounts, fabricated referrals or other deception. GoBites may reverse an improperly obtained benefit after reviewing relevant evidence and explaining the basis where practicable. A refund legally due in money will not be converted into promotional credit without your agreement.
18Customer conduct and prohibited activity
Treat merchants, couriers and staff respectfully. Do not threaten, harass, discriminate unlawfully, request illegal goods, interfere with another person’s account, misuse delivery contact details, make fraudulent claims or manipulate payment, location or review systems.
You may report genuine problems, give honest feedback and exercise legal rights without retaliation. Nothing prevents a good-faith complaint, lawful disclosure to an authority or review of your experience.
19Reviews and intellectual property
You retain ownership of content you submit, while granting GoBites a non-exclusive licence to host, display and reproduce it as reasonably needed to operate, moderate and promote the services. Submit only content you have the right to share and do not include another person’s private information without authority.
GoBites may remove unlawful, abusive, fraudulent or irrelevant content using reasonable moderation standards. Its branding, software and designs remain protected. You receive permission to use the platform for its intended purposes, not to copy its software, misrepresent affiliation or interfere with security.
20Privacy and communications
The Customer Privacy Policy at GoBites Customer Privacy Policy explains the processing of account, order, payment, location and support information and your privacy choices. Only information reasonably needed for fulfilment and legitimate support should be shared with the merchant or assigned courier.
You may receive necessary order, account, payment and security messages. Optional marketing is subject to applicable consent and opt-out requirements. Opting out of marketing does not prevent essential transactional communications.
21Suspension, account closure and outstanding orders
GoBites may restrict access where reasonably necessary to investigate fraud, protect safety, comply with law or address a material breach. The action should be proportionate. Where lawful and practicable, GoBites will give a reason and a way to request review; urgent restrictions may be imposed before notice.
You may stop using the service or request account closure through available controls or support. Suspension or closure does not erase valid refund claims or automatically forfeit money owed. Outstanding orders, payment disputes and lawful record retention will be handled separately.
22Service interruptions and events outside reasonable control
Maintenance, connectivity failures, outages and serious external events may interrupt the platform. GoBites will take reasonable steps to limit disruption, communicate material effects and assist with affected orders. The service is not an emergency service.
A disruption does not permit GoBites to retain payment for an unprovided service without a lawful basis. Where an order cannot reasonably be completed, cancellation and refund rights continue to apply. Each party must take reasonable steps to avoid unnecessary loss.
23Responsibility and liability
Each party is responsible for the consequences of its own breach, negligence or unlawful conduct as determined by applicable law. GoBites is not the manufacturer of merchant goods, but that does not exclude responsibility it has as a platform operator, supplier of its own services or participant in the transaction.
To the extent lawful, liability does not extend to losses that are too remote or were not reasonably foreseeable. Nothing excludes or restricts liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury where liability cannot be limited, mandatory consumer remedies, or any other non-excludable liability. These terms impose no blanket customer indemnity for GoBites’ own fault.
24Complaints, disputes and Ghanaian law
Contact support@usegobites.com with the order reference, the issue and the remedy requested. GoBites will consider the evidence and provide a response or explain what further information is needed. An internal complaint procedure does not prevent urgent relief or suspend a legal time limit.
These Customer Terms are governed by the laws of Ghana. Unresolved disputes may be brought before a court of competent jurisdiction. Mediation or arbitration is available only where separately and validly agreed; these terms do not impose compulsory arbitration or waive access to a competent regulator or other statutory forum.
25Changes, interpretation and electronic records
Material changes will be made available before they apply, with notice through an appropriate channel. The version accepted for an order governs that order unless a change is required by law or you separately agree. New terms do not retrospectively remove accrued rights. Where express acceptance is required, GoBites must obtain it.
Order-specific terms may supplement this document if clearly disclosed before acceptance, but cannot remove mandatory rights. If a clause is unenforceable, the remainder continues where legally possible. GoBites may not transfer its obligations in a way that unlawfully reduces your rights. A failure to enforce a clause on one occasion is not a waiver of it.
