2.1 When placing an Order via the Dohop Platform, the Customer must provide all requested information and be aware that it is always the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that sufficient funds are available in the form of payment used to pay for the requested Order. The Customer is responsible for reading these Terms carefully and ensuring that the details in the Order are complete and accurate before submitting the Order. The Customer can change the information provided and correct input errors at any time until submission of its Order by using the tools available on the website/app.

2.2 The Customer acknowledges that Dohop never acts as an agent on behalf of Third-Party Service Providers (e.g., airlines, train companies or other booking agents). The Customer is booking the Trip(s) directly with the relevant Third-Party Service Provider(s), subject to each Third-Party´s Service Provider´s terms and conditions. Therefore, the Customer and Other Passenger, must study and accept the relevant Third-Party Service Provider´s terms and conditions before purchasing and submitting the Order.

(a)   the Customer is responsible for ensuring that any relevant information provided in relation to the Order will be passed on to all members listed in the Order, where required; 

(b)   the Customer is responsible for all payments due from each and every person for whom the Customer makes the booking; and

(c)   the Customer has the authority to accept or decline all relevant terms and conditions (including the Terms) on behalf of all members of the Order.

2.4 Before purchasing and submitting the Order, the booking page will clearly outline the Dohop Service Fee and the cost of each Trip.

The Customer must pay the Booking Price using one of the payment methods outlined on the booking pages. By submitting an Order, the Customer confirms that he/she is responsible for ensuring that the payment information provided is accurate and once the Order has been submitted, the Customer’s payment for the Booking Price will be verified against the Customer’s cardholder’s details. 

2.5 The Dohop Service Fee may change at any time, but possible price changes will not affect Orders the Customer has already completed.

2.6 The Order is placed when the Customer submits the Order via the relevant “book and pay” button. The Customer will receive an Order Confirmation from Dohop via email once payment for the total Booking Price has been approved, and then the Terms will become binding. The Customer will also receive a direct confirmation from the relevant Third-Party Service Provider for the Third-Party Service Reservation, i.e., airline and/or train tickets and invoices.
