Terms and Conditions for Passengers

Motokada is a web-based app for ordering transportation in Nigeria; it communicates transportation service requests to the transportation service providers who have been registered as users of the Motokada system. By accessing this website we assume you accept these terms and conditions. Do not continue to use Motokada if you do not agree to take all of the terms and conditions stated on this page. Motokada is the holder of rights, service provider of the Motokada app and the operator of the app in Nigeria.

1. Using the Motokada app

  • The use of the Motokada app requires installation of the software and registration of a user account. During the installation of the Motokada app, the mobile number of the Motokada service user is linked to the respective user account and added to the database.
  • When using the Motokada app, the user can choose whether he/she wishes to pay in cash or via in-App payment for the transportation service to the driver. Once a payment option has been selected, the user cannot change this.
  • Any complaints can be sent to our support team via email info@motokada.com through the Motokada website by clicking on the support button, or by calling our support line on +2349019931940 (available on weekdays 10.00-16.00 W.A.T).

2. Motokada in-App payment conditions

  • In-App payments can be made by a user of the Motokada app who has included his/her card on the app.
  • When making in-App payments, the receiver of the payment is Motokada Operations, who forwards the received payment to the transportation service provider.
  • When making in-App payments, a service fee is added per each order of transportation service. The named service fee includes payment commission fees, incl. Visa / MasterCard service fees. The amount of the service fee is displayed in the mobile app. In the event that the in-App payment intermediary enacts a fee for the usage of the payment service, which has to be paid by the customers separately, then the named fees are not included in the Motokada credit card and in-App payment fee.
  • When offering in-App payments, Motokada acts as the economic agent of transportation service providers by intermediating payments made in the Motokada app. The obligation of the customer in front of the transportation service provider shall be considered fulfilled as of the moment when the payment order is made for the payment of funds into the Motokada bank account. Motokada shall not be responsible for the exercise of the customer's payment order.

3. Ordering or cancelling a transportation service

  • If the Motokada app user orders a vehicle and the driver has confirmed the receipt of service then the transportation is considered pre-ordered.
  • Cancelling the use of an ordered transportation is considered to be the situation where the driver has been notified about the receipt of an order and the Motokada app user waives the use of the transportation service after a notice has been received.
  • Cancelling the use of an ordered transportation is also considered to be the situation where the user of the Motokada app or people whom the transportation was ordered for do not appear in the vehicle within 8 minutes as of the time when the driver notified them about the arrival of the vehicle in its destination.
  • In case of cancelling the transportation service the Motokada app user is required to pay 800 Naira as a penalty fee. In the event that the Motokada user notifies about the cancelling of transportation service within 5 minutes as of receiving of the notification concerning the receipt of the order through Motokada, the user does not have to pay the penalty fee.
  • We have the right to revoke the right to use the app if the user has waived the use of transportation service on 3 successive instances in one 24 hour period. In that case the app notifies the user about the number of cancellations and after waiving the 3rd time, Motokada cancels the usage right. Motokada usage right can be cancelled for up to six months. After that the user can reactivate his/her user account by contacting the local team via email. Access to app can also be revoked on the basis of harassment, providing false information/allegations and engaging in any criminal activities.

4. Use of the Motokada app

  • Motokada is a mobile app that enables persons requiring a transportation service to find a suitable provider closest to them.
  • The use of the Motokada app is based on a non-exclusive licence issued by Motokada Operations. The licence agreement is valid for a non-limited period and is free of charge for the customer. In case of any faults in the software, we shall endeavour to correct them as soon as possible, but please keep in mind that the functionality of the app may be restricted due to occasional technical errors and we are not able to guarantee unlimited faultless functioning of the app at all times. We shall also accept no liability for any losses incurred as a consequence of the Motokada app not functioning or not being usable in the desired manner. In the event that the customer's right to use the app is cancelled, the corresponding non-exclusive licence shall also be repealed.
  • As the Motokada app is primarily a link between customers and transportation service providers, Motokada cannot influence or take any responsibility for the quality or defects of the service. Driver-partners are not employees and for this reason, we are unable to guarantee consistently accurate and faultless provision of transportation services located via Motokada. For resolving complaints please contact our support team.
  • The Motokada app does not constitute an offer or brokerage of transportation for customers. The Motokada app is not a means for organizing the provision of transportation services. It is also not an agency service for finding customers for transportation providers.
  • The consumer's right of refund (withdrawal) is not applied to Motokada app orders.
  • A rider must be 18 and above to register and ride. If a rider in under the age of 18, he or she must be accompanied by someone who is 18 years or older. Unaccompanied minors are not to be in rides and Motokada bears no liability for unaccompanied minors.
  • The Motokada app is set up to help people move from point A to B and is not a means for the delivery of parcels. Moving parcels is not under the purview of this platform and Motokada shall not be held liable for missing or undelivered parcels. A rider must also be accountable for their items during a ride.
  • Motokada would help to recover lost and forgotten items only in the event that these items are found by the driver-partner and taken to the Motokada office. Furthermore, these recovered items that have been taken to the Motokada office have a 14-day time span to be retrieved after which Motokada will not be held liable for them.

6. Good practice of using the Motokada app

  •  As Motokada is not a provider or broker of the transportation service, we are unable to influence the quality of the transportation service. Any issues with defects or quality of the transportation service shall be resolved in accordance with the rules and regulations of the transportation service provider or the relevant supervisory authority.
  •  Motokada is committed to contributing to improvement of the quality of transportation services. For this reason, we continuously collate ratings and ask to fill out a feedback form in the Motokada app. This enables us to offer suggestions to the transportation service providers for improving the quality of their service.
  •  We expect that the users of the Motokada app use the app in good faith and are respectful of the drivers who offer their services through Motokada.
  •  Motokada shall make every effort to ensure that only drivers, who have integrity and are respectful of their profession and customers, use the Motokada app. However, we are in no position to guarantee that every provider of transportation services, located via the Motokada app, satisfies the aforementioned criteria at all times. If you experience objectionable transportation service, please notify the company responsible for the service, a supervisory authority or our support team.
  •  In the event that we receive a complaint, which has an element of the commission of a crime by a transport service provider, the Customer shall make a formal complaint to the Nigerian Police Force, an report is tendered, and the transport service provider shall cooperate with the Nigeria Police Force in ensuring that the allegations contained in the complaint are diligently investigated.
  •  In the event that a user makes an allegation against a Driver-partner especially in events where details of partners are shared online, Driver-partners reserve the right to seek legal redress and may pursue legal recourse against damages to their character.

7. Free rides referral campaign

  •  Motokada has the right to void any discount codes and block rider accounts if it suspects any fraudulent activities and charge the rider for the damages caused.
