1. Partner Eligibility
To use LIVO as a facility, you must:
- Hold a valid license to operate your business in your jurisdiction
- Maintain proper insurance covering the services you offer
- Provide truthful, up-to-date information about your services and staff
Failure to provide these documents may delay or prevent activation on the Platform.
2. Partner Responsibilities
You agree to:
- Provide high-quality services to users who book via LIVO
- Ensure availability and pricing information is accurate
- Honor bookings made through the Platform
- Respect LIVO’s cancellation, refund, and review policies
- Respond to LIVO team and client inquiries in a timely manner

3. Commission & Payments
LIVO uses Stripe Direct for all transactions. When a user completes a purchase, the payment is processed directly through the Partner’s connected Stripe account.
- LIVO’s 10% commission is automatically deducted from the total charge on the net amount excluding taxes (if applicable). The remaining balance is transferred to the Partner’s Stripe account.
- Stripe processing fees are charged directly to the Partner by Stripe according to Stripe’s standard rates. LIVO does not retain or manage Stripe fees.
- The Partner must complete the Stripe connection process to receive payments. Payout schedules, refund processing, and chargeback handling are governed by Stripe’s own policies.
- LIVO is not responsible for any payment delays, bank charges, or other deductions applied by the Partner’s financial institution.
Tax Compliance and VAT Handling
LIVO acts solely as a facilitator and does not collect or remit taxes on behalf of Partners.
All service prices displayed on the Platform must be inclusive of applicable taxes (TTC / VAT included) where required by law. Partners are responsible for ensuring that the prices they provide already include any applicable tax components.
LIVO’s 10% commission is always calculated on the net amount excluding VAT or sales tax.
United States (Sales Tax)
In the United States, all service prices displayed on the LIVO Platform must include any applicable local or state sales tax (tax-inclusive pricing). LIVO does not collect, calculate, or remit sales tax on behalf of Partners. Each Partner is responsible for including the correct tax rate in their listed prices and for remitting any applicable taxes directly to the appropriate tax authority in their jurisdiction.
United Arab Emirates (VAT Handling)
Partners based in the United Arab Emirates must indicate their VAT registration status in the Payment Information section of their dashboard before connecting their Stripe account.
If the Partner is VAT-registered, they must:
- Enter their Tax Registration Number (TRN) during the setup process
- Provide their service prices inclusive of VAT
- Understand that all prices displayed on the LIVO Platform to UAE users are VAT-inclusive
- Manage and remit their collected VAT directly to the Federal Tax Authority (FTA)
LIVO takes its 10% commission on the net amount excluding VAT, and the Partner remains fully responsible for reporting and remitting their VAT obligations under UAE law.
If the Partner is not VAT-registered, LIVO will display the Partner’s prices as provided, and no VAT will be collected or displayed. LIVO will not collect or remit VAT on behalf of Partners in the UAE unless and until LIVO itself becomes VAT-registered in the country.
European Union, United Kingdom, and Switzerland (VAT Compliance)
In the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, VAT is included in the price displayed to the user in accordance with local consumer protection laws.
Partners are responsible for complying with any invoicing obligations required by their local tax authorities. Where applicable, they must be able to issue valid tax invoices to users or to LIVO upon request. However, LIVO is not responsible for generating or distributing invoices on behalf of Partners.
4. Booking & Calendar Management
Partners are responsible for maintaining accurate and up-to-date availability on their calendar. LIVO may offer integrations with external calendars, such as Google Calendar, to help prevent double bookings. However, LIVO is not liable for any discrepancies, missed appointments, or scheduling conflicts resulting from external calendar syncing.
Any walk-in or external booking must be entered or blocked directly in the Partner’s calendar connected to LIVO, so that the corresponding time slot becomes unavailable to other users.
5. User Reviews
Only verified users can leave reviews. LIVO may moderate abusive or false content.
6. Platform Rules
You agree not to:
- Redirect users outside of LIVO
- Promote unlicensed or unauthorized services
- Misrepresent qualifications, pricing, or service details
- Reverse-engineer or copy the Platform
7. Platform Curation and Acceptance
LIVO may accept or reject Partners at its discretion based on quality, location, or strategy.
8. Termination & Suspension
Partner Termination and Final Bookings
LIVO may suspend or remove a Partner from the Platform at any time, with no obligation to provide justification. In the event of suspension or removal, the Partner remains responsible for honoring or refunding all confirmed bookings, depending on the circumstances and timing of the scheduled sessions. LIVO reserves the right to facilitate refunds through Stripe if necessary to protect users.
Partners may terminate their use of the Platform by providing 30 days’ written notice. Upon submission of such notice, the Partner will remain visible on the Platform during the 30-day period, but their availability will be restricted to bookings that fall within that notice period. LIVO will ensure that no new sessions can be booked beyond the Partner’s final active date.
Refunds are processed through Stripe. When a refund is applicable under LIVO’s refund policy, LIVO may initiate the refund directly through Stripe on behalf of the Partner. The refunded amount will be automatically deducted from the Partner’s connected Stripe account by Stripe. Partners authorize LIVO and Stripe to process such refunds when applicable.
9. Intellectual Property
All Platform content and branding belong to LIVO. Do not copy or reuse without permission.
10. Limitation of Liability
LIVO acts solely as a platform to connect users with independent service providers. LIVO does not provide, supervise, or guarantee any service offered by Partners.
Partners are fully responsible for the services they provide, including compliance with local laws, regulations, safety protocols, and professional standards.
LIVO is not liable for:
- any injury, loss, claim, or damage arising from a service provided by a Partner
- user behavior before, during, or after the booking
- missed appointments, last-minute cancellations, or client no-shows
- any health or wellness outcomes following a session
- any technical errors, platform unavailability, or external system failures
To the fullest extent permitted by law, LIVO disclaims all warranties, express or implied, and limits its liability to the maximum extent allowable.
11. Cancellations & Refunds
LIVO applies a single refund policy for all transactions processed through the Platform to ensure consistency and compliance with Stripe Direct regulations.
- Users may request a full refund within seven (7) days after purchase, provided that the booked session has not yet taken place.
- If a customer cancels within that period and the service has not been rendered, LIVO will initiate the refund process directly through Stripe.
- If the service has already been rendered and the user is dissatisfied, the refund responsibility lies with the Partner. LIVO is not responsible for refunding users after a session has been completed. Any post-service refund or compensation must be handled directly by the Partner according to their own customer policies.
- Stripe manages refund execution based on its own rules and timeframes. Refunds processed within Stripe’s system may result in adjustments to the Partner’s account balance.
- Partners are prohibited from issuing off-platform refunds outside the Stripe system linked to LIVO transactions.
- LIVO reserves the right to withhold payouts or temporarily suspend a Partner’s account in cases of repeated refund disputes, unresolved complaints, or refund abuse.
12. LIVO Rewards Program
Partners must offer at least one complimentary service to participate in the LIVO Rewards Program. This service will be made available to users who redeem points earned through the platform.
Users earn reward points by completing actions such as:
- Booking services through the platform
- Referring friends to join and book
- Participating in promotional events
Redeemed services are not paid by the user, and no payout is issued to the Partner. These services are intended to increase exposure and encourage new user engagement with the facility.
The complimentary service must be of genuine value and reflect the quality of your offerings. LIVO reserves the right to reject or request changes to the selected reward service if it does not meet platform standards.
13. Changes to Terms
LIVO may update these Terms. Material changes will be communicated via email or dashboard.
14. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Los Angeles County, California.
