1. Some basic you should know about these terms of use
1.1. What this document is and who we are: You are reading a legal document which is the agreement between you, the Vendor (whom we refer to as “you”, “your” or the “Vendor” in this document) and us. You are agreeing to the terms of use that appear below, all of which are called the “Agreement”. We are Coupania (Pty) Ltd and we are the operator, owners and contributors of this WebSite and Smartphone App. Coupania (Pty) Ltd is a company registered in South Africa. We refer to ourselves as “Coupania”, “we”, “us” or “our” in this document. The “Buyer” is anyone who purchased and/or downloaded a coupon on our site.
1.2. What we do: We provide a platform including a website Site, mobile applications etc. (collectively “Site”) where local affiliates and other sellers (collectively, “ Vendors”) can list offers for Vouchers, deals, goods, getaways and other products (collectively, “Coupons”). As a platform provider, we help in marketing items on our platform at discounted prices. We provide a venue for Vendors to market value added coupons to prospective buyers. We may also be a Seller. This means that in addition to this Agreement, you may have other contractual relationships with different legal entities when you interact with the Site.
1.3. What are all of the legal relationships? Whatever Item is marketed via the Site and/or smartphone application, will be subject to the terms and conditions of that Vendor. The Vendor is responsible for the sale and for dealing with any claims or any other issue arising out of or in connection with the contract between the vendor and the buyer. All redeeming of vouchers is handled by the Vendor. Coupania is merely a portal between buyer and vendor. In respect of any Vouchers, neither do we not assume responsibility for any contracts regarding the redemption of a voucher by the buyer.
