Delivery Agreement
These are the Trexity terms each courier agrees to by using the Driver App.
DELIVERY AGREEMENT
(TREXITY – CANADA)
Updated: January 1, 2025 version 2.41
Prev (2.31 March 2024)
Key Principles:
•This Agreement applies to your use of the Driver App on the Trexity Platform. You should read this entire Agreement carefully before agreeing to it.
•Trexity Inc will offer routes for you to accept and operate. You may receive instructions about the location and manner of delivery from Merchants and Delivery Recipients, and you must respond to those instructions.
•You are an independent contractor. You are not an employee of Trexity Inc. This means:
•When you are online in the Driver App, Trexity will send you Requests for you to deliver items, and you can accept or reject these Requests as you wish.
•You can go online or offline in the Driver App whenever you like.
•When using the Trexity Driver App it is prohibited to work or use other delivery or transportation network apps.
•You are responsible for sourcing your own tools to fulfill Requests, such as a car, mobile device, data plan, delivery bags, etc.
•As a zero-rated interline freight courier service, you are responsible to register for your own GST/HST account if your income is more than $30,000.00 CAD. Trexity Inc. is not responsible for this or your tax obligations.
•You will not receive overtime pay, vacation pay, holiday pay, or other payments typically associated with an employer/employee relationship.
•All users of the Trexity Platform, including you, must follow the Community Guidelines to ensure safety and respect for all.
•Trexity does not promise or guarantee that there will be Requests when you are online in the Driver App.
•This Agreement includes a process for resolving disputes individually through arbitration. Any dispute you have with Trexity Inc will be resolved by an arbitrator, not a court. You can opt out of that process by following the steps described in section 15.6 below.
This Delivery Agreement is entered into between you and Trexity Inc.
1. BINDING CONTRACT
(a) Once you agree to these terms, you enter into an agreement with Trexity Inc (the “Agreement”). By clicking “Yes, I agree,” you confirm that you have read, understood, and thoughtfully considered the consequences of this Agreement, and that you agree to be bound by its terms and conditions.
(b) The Agreement consists of:
1. Any Addenda to these terms,
2. These terms,
3. The Privacy Notice, and
4. The Community Guidelines.
If there’s a conflict or inconsistency between any of these documents, the earlier-listed document takes precedence—but only to the extent needed to resolve the conflict.
(c) Capitalized terms in this Agreement are defined in Section 17 [Definitions].
2. TERM OF AGREEMENT
This Agreement begins on the date and time you accept the terms and continues until terminated under Section 13 [Termination].
3. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES
(a)You are an independent contractor under this Agreement. You acknowledge and agree to remain an independent contractor at all times.
(b) Trexity Inc will not direct or control you in the performance of Delivery Services, including your actions or omissions, or how you operate and maintain your transportation method—except as specifically stated in this Agreement.
(c) This Agreement is non-exclusive. That means:
•You can use other software apps for on-demand work or engage in other business activities, including while using the Driver App or providing Delivery Services.
•You’re not obligated to use the Driver App or to accept Delivery Requests.
(d) Trexity Inc enters into separate agreements with Merchants. Under this Agreement, you agree to sell Delivery Services to Trexity Inc, which resells those services to Merchants as applicable.
As an independent contractor, you control your schedule. This means:
1. You’re not required to accept any Requests or perform any Delivery Services.
2. You can go online or offline in the Driver App whenever you want. There are no daily, weekly, or monthly hour requirements.
3. You can accept or decline any Request for any reason.
4. You can log in to the Driver App and accept Requests from anywhere within Trexity’s service area.
As an independent contractor, you decide how to provide Delivery Services. This includes:

2. Using any navigation app and taking any reasonable route—you don’t need to follow the suggested route in the Driver App (that’s just for convenience).

As an independent contractor, you are not an employee. Under Canadian law, this means:
1. You’re not guaranteed minimum wage, overtime pay, or Requests while you’re online.
2. You’re not entitled to vacation pay, holiday pay, or other employment benefits.
This Agreement does not create a legal partnership, agency, joint venture, or employment relationship between you and Trexity Inc. You cannot represent yourself as a partner, agent, employee, or authorized representative of Trexity Inc. You agree not to make any statements or representations that suggest such a relationship exists.
Trexity Inc will not be held to any commitments or agreements you make with others on its behalf.
You acknowledge that you’re entering into this Agreement willingly and without coercion.

6. FEES AND PAYMENTS
6.1. Delivery Fees
Payment calculation
Driver Partner will be paid by the route, not by the hour. Prior to a route, the Driver Partner acknowledges that he or she has reviewed the anticipated route pay, and that he or she will be paid that amount in full when the route is successfully completed, regardless of how long the route takes. A route has been successfully completed when
(1) all packages have been successfully delivered to the correct location, and
(2) in the event a package was undeliverable after a delivery attempt was made in good faith using commercially reasonable efforts, any such package is returned to aVeho location within the timeframe established by Trexity.
Trexity and Driver Partner further agree that if Driver Partner does not successfully complete a route, Trexity will be able to adjust the route pay due to Driver Partner based on packages successfully delivered, subject to deductions for packages that are lost, damaged, destroyed, stolen, or otherwise unable to be successfully delivered in whole or in part.
6.2. Tips and Other Amounts
Delivery Fees do not include tips. Delivery Recipients may choose to tip you:
• Directly in cash, or
• Through the Trexity Platform.
Tips made through the app will be passed on to you minus the transaction fees.
Trexity Inc may occasionally offer incentives if you meet certain conditions. These will be communicated via app, email, or text. Participation is always optional and subject to specific terms and conditions.
6.3. Adjustments to Delivery Fees
Trexity Inc may cancel or reduce a Delivery Fee (or request repayment) if:
1. Delivery Service wasn’t completed or was misdelivered
2. A Merchant or Recipient files a complaint about your actions.
3. The route you took was unreasonably inefficient.
4. The delivery took an unreasonably long time to complete.
5. There’s suspected fraud or misuse of the platform.
Trexity Inc’s decision to cancel, reduce, or seek repayment of a Delivery Fee (as described in Section 6.3) will be made reasonably and in good faith.
6.4. Payments
Trexity Inc will pay you for all completed Delivery Services. Trexity Inc will remit:
1. Your Delivery Fees (we don’t cover parking tickets, tolls, extra fees)
2. Any incentive payments
3. Any applicable Sales Tax (see below)
4. Any tips from Delivery Recipients submitted through the Trexity Platform
If you’ve agreed to pay Trexity Inc for anything (e.g., background checks) or have authorized it to remit funds to a third party, those amounts will be deducted from your payouts.
If an overpayment occurs or an adjustment under Section 6.3 is needed, Trexity Inc may:
•Deduct from future payouts
•Debit your card, bank or Stripe account
•Seek reimbursement through other lawful means
If an underpayment is discovered, Trexity Inc will credit the missing amount to your payment method (unless stated otherwise).
Trexity Inc may also withhold payments if legally required, such as in response to a garnishment order, court directive or for additional verification by Stripe..
6.5. Taxes
You are responsible for:
•Registering for applicable taxes
•Calculating and remitting your own taxes on the Delivery Services
•Providing Trexity Inc with accurate tax and business details through your Driver Account’s Tax Profile
Your Delivery Fee is exclusive of Sales Tax. If you’re registered for Sales Tax and have completed your Tax Profile, Trexity Inc will NOT pay you any applicable Sales Tax on your Delivery Fee and that will be your responsibility.
Trexity Inc may be required by law to withhold, deduct, or remit taxes related to your payments under this Agreement.
If Trexity Inc is required to withhold or remit taxes on your behalf, you will not be entitled to any additional payment to offset those deductions.
You must also provide any tax-related information Trexity Inc reasonably requests to fulfill its legal obligations.
If you’ve agreed to pay any amount to Trexity Inc (e.g., for background checks), those charges are exclusive of Sales Tax unless otherwise noted. You agree to pay any applicable Sales Tax on such charges.
7. INSURANCE
You agree to maintain the following insurance coverage at your own cost:
1. Motor Vehicle Insurance: If you’re using a vehicle, it must meet or exceed:
•The minimum coverage required by law

IMPORTANT
Please read this section carefully. It requires you to resolve disputes individually through arbitration, not in court. By agreeing, you:
•Waive participation in class actions or collective proceedings.
•Can still bring your own individual claims in arbitration.
You can opt out of arbitration by following the steps outlined below.
Your right to opt out of this arbitration provision
(a) Agreeing to the arbitration provision in this section 15 is not a mandatory condition of your contractual relationship with Trexity Inc. If you do not want to be subject to this section 15, you can opt out of this arbitration provision as set out here. To do so, within 30 days of the date that this Agreement is electronically accepted by you, you must send an email from the email address associated with your Driver Account to drive@trexity.com, stating your intent to opt out of the arbitration provision in this section 15, as well as your name, the phone number associated with your Driver Account, and the city in which you reside.
(b) Your email may opt out for yourself only, and any email that tries to opt out anyone other than yourself will be void as to any others. Should you not opt out of this section 15 within the 30-day period, you and Trexity Inc will be bound by the terms of this section 15. You will not be subject to retaliation if you exercise your right to opt out of this section 15.
(c) Your acceptance of this Agreement or your decision to opt out of this section 15 does not affect any obligation you have to arbitrate disputes pursuant to any other agreement you have with Trexity Inc or their Affiliates. Likewise, your acceptance of or decision to opt out of any other arbitration agreement you have with Trexity Inc or their Affiliates does not affect any obligation you have to arbitrate claims pursuant to this section 15
15.1. When Arbitration Applies
(a) All disputes related to this Agreement—or any legal relationship derived from it—must be resolved by individual arbitration, under the Arbitration Rules (ADRIC Rules) of the ADR Institute of Canada, Inc. (ADRIC), with some modifications listed here.
(b) You can find the ADRIC Rules by searching online for “ADRIC Arbitration Rules” or visiting www.adric.ca, or by calling 1-877-475-4353.
(c) The arbitration will be in English, or in French if you usually perform deliveries in Québec and prefer it.
(d) The arbitration hearings can happen by phone, video call, email, or any method the arbitrator agrees to. They may also select the location they feel is appropriate.
(e) You have the right to speak with a lawyer about this clause and to be represented by legal counsel during any part of the arbitration.
15.2. Enforceability
If any part of Section 15 is unenforceable, the rest will still apply.
This section remains valid even after your relationship with Trexity Inc ends, and still applies if the relationship is renewed in the future.
If a court decides that a part of your dispute must go to court, only that portion will be litigated. The rest will still be handled through arbitration.
This arbitration clause also applies to any dispute regarding:
•The formation, enforceability, or interpretation of Section 15
•Whether Section 15 is void, valid, waived, revocable, or conscionable
Even disputes about the validity of this arbitration clause itself must be resolved by the arbitrator.
15.3. Limitations to the Arbitration Requirement
You are still allowed to:
•File a complaint with a government agency
•Let that agency investigate or decide on your claim
•Seek remedies through the agency process
If your claim involves sexual assault or harassment, you can choose to bring it to court instead of arbitration. Trexity Inc will respect that choice.
However, the class action waiver (explained in 15.5) still applies to any claim—even those brought in court.
15.4. How to Start Arbitration
Before starting arbitration through ADRIC:
1. The party making the claim must submit a Notice of Request to Arbitrate within the same time limit as if it were filed in court (based on your province or Ontario if you live outside Canada).
2. This notice must include:
•Contact information
•A description of the legal and factual basis of the claim
•The remedy and any monetary amount sought
This notice must be sent as outlined in the notice process (Section 16.1).
Before filing that notice with ADRIC:
•The party must try to negotiate in good faith for at least 30 days, and up to 45 days (unless extended by mutual agreement).
•During this time, the legal deadline to file (limitation period) is paused.
•If no resolution is reached during this window, the party may then proceed to arbitration.
To officially begin arbitration, the party bringing the claim must:
1. Deliver the Notice of Request to Arbitrate to ADRIC.
2. Pay their share of the initial arbitration filing fee.
15.5. Arbitration Fees
•You will only be responsible for initial filing fees up to the cost of filing a lawsuit in your provincial or territorial superior court (or in Ontario, if you live outside Canada).
•If ADRIC’s fees are higher, Trexity Inc will cover the difference after you pay your portion.
•Trexity Inc will also cover:
•The arbitrator’s fees (where legally required)
•Any fees that are unique to arbitration
•If law doesn’t require Trexity Inc to pay, then fees will be shared as legally appropriate, and any disagreement about costs will be settled by the arbitrator.
15.6. Class Action Waiver
This Agreement affects your ability to join class actions:
•You and Trexity Inc agree to resolve all disputes individually, not as part of a class, group, or collective action.
•You may not bring or participate in any class/collective arbitration or lawsuit related to this Agreement.
If a court decides that a part of your claim must proceed as a class action, that portion may go to court—but anything still covered by this arbitration clause will remain in individual arbitration.
15.7. Opting Out of Arbitration
Arbitration is not mandatory. If you don’t want to be bound by Section 15, you can opt out within 30 days of accepting this Agreement.
To do so:
•Send an email from your Driver Account email to:
support@trexity.com
• Include:
• Your name
• Phone number associated with your Driver Account
• The city where you live
• A statement that you’re opting out of Section 15
• You can only opt out for yourself. Any attempt to opt out on behalf of others will be invalid.
• If you don’t opt out within 30 days, you’ll be bound by this arbitration clause.
• Trexity Inc will not retaliate against you for opting out.
Note: Opting out of this arbitration clause does not affect any obligation you may have under other arbitration agreements you’ve signed with Trexity or its affiliates—and vice versa.
Transitional Clause
If you previously had a delivery agreement with another Trexity affiliate (e.g., Uber Portier B.V.) and opted out of arbitration under that agreement, Trexity Inc will honor that prior opt-out. You do not need to opt out again.
