14. Fees, Rates, Charges, Credits and Payments

  • 14.1 Membership Fees and Rental Fees

Under your Membership, you are the only person authorized to operate the Vehicles. Your rental period will begin when you first access a Vehicle and will end only once a Vehicle has been successfully checked in (your “Rental Period”). For each use of a Vehicle, you agree to pay the applicable rental rate calculated on a per-mile, per-hour, or per-day basis, including any Stopover rate fees, as set forth in the Rate Schedule, plus applicable taxes (“Rental Fees”). The Rental Fees include fuel, AAA roadside service, maintenance, Third-Party Liability Insurance (see Section 22 (Insurance)), parking (as authorized), and 24/7 Member Support during your Rental Period.

  • 14.2 Payment of Fines and Administrative Charges

You are solely responsible for the consequences of traffic offenses and violations, criminal activities, parking violations (including in privately operated parking facilities) that occur in connection with your rental of a Vehicle and you agree to pay, when due, all penalties, fines, towing costs and other charges arising from these offenses, activities or violations. If, for any reason, we are required or decide to pay on your behalf, you agree to pay us, upon demand, and your Account will be charged for all penalties, fines, towing costs, or other similar charges, as well as any applicable processing fees.

  • 14.3 Settling Claims

To the extent permitted by law, we may elect, in our sole discretion, to settle any claims related to the offenses, activities or violations referenced above on your behalf and to transfer any legal process, responsibility or liability related to such claims to you.

  •        14.4 Toll and Similar Charges

You also agree to pay all FasTrak charges or similar toll charges incurred in connection with your rental of a Vehicle. You will not be assessed any processing fee for these charges.

  • 14.5 Other Charges

You agree to pay when due and will be charged as set forth in the then-current Rate Schedule.

  • 14.6 Credits

You may receive a credit as a result of an action (e.g., refueling a Vehicle). Credits shall consist of a credit in dollars (USD). These credits are applied to any amounts owed before your payment method is charged and can only be used to pay for Rental Fees. Further information can be found in the FAQs.

  •   14.7 Payment

To the extent permitted by law, we will charge to the payment card associated with your Account all Rental Fees, and other fees and charges that you have incurred as a GIG Member. You agree to ensure that your payment card information is always up to date and has sufficient limits available to pay any amount you owe to us. Rental Fees, and other fees and charges are not refundable except where required by law. Rental Fees, other fees and charges, and taxes are subject to change.

Upon addition of a new payment method or upon each reservation of a Vehicle, we may seek authorization of your selected payment method to verify the payment method, ensure the Rental Fees will be covered, and protect against unauthorized conduct. You consent to the authorization at the addition of a new payment method or at each reservation of a Vehicle. If the amount is not available for authorization, you will not be able to reserve a Vehicle until you resolve the payment issue. In addition, should the amount of our authorization exceed the total funds on deposit in your account, you may be subject to overdraft or insufficient funds fees by the card issuer. You understand that we will authorize the release of any excess reserve or authorization upon the completion of your Rental Period, and that your card issuer’s rules apply to your credit line or your account being credited for such excess and may not be immediately released by your card issuer.

Your Rental Fees are calculated and charged to your payment card. For each day that your Rental Period exceeds the minimum number of hours for the daily rental rate to apply, you consent to us charging your payment card on each such day for the daily Rental Fee as set forth in the Rate Schedule. At the end of your Rental Period, you may be assessed any other unpaid fees.

You will receive an email receipt summarizing your Rental Fees after your Rental Period has ended. You may also view a history of your Rental Fees in the Mobile App by the next business day or by contacting Member Support to receive a history report.

We will contact you at the contact information you provided to us if your payment is not fully processed for any reason. You will not be able to reserve a Vehicle and you may not be able to continue your Rental Period until you resolve the payment issue.

If your payment card is declined and you do not resolve the payment issue with us, we will immediately end your Rental Period, and deem any continued use of the Vehicle to be an unauthorized use of the Vehicle with the intent to deprive us of the Vehicle. We may consider the Vehicle stolen and take action in accordance with applicable law, including but not limited to termination or suspension of your then-current Rental Period or Membership. You may also be subject to an additional charge per the Rate Schedule.

We may also use a third party to collect any unpaid Rental Fees or additional fees and charges incurred on your Account.

You are solely responsible for all payment card, banking, service, cellular, data or access fees or charges you incur in association with the GIG Services.

15. Electronic Surveillance Technology

The Vehicles may be equipped with Global Positioning System (“GPS”) or other electronic surveillance technology. We may obtain, access, or use information from these technologies to the extent permitted by law, which may include determining when a Vehicle is checked out or checked in, the total mileage driven, and the Vehicle’s speed, location, battery strength, fuel level, lock/unlock status, and start/stop status. We may also use electronic surveillance technology, including location-based technologies, in the Vehicles or activated through use of the Mobile App, for other purposes, to the extent permitted by law, such as locating stolen, abandoned, or missing Vehicles, providing requested roadside and other assistance, and cooperating with law enforcement.

  • And keep the Vehicle clean and tidy.

If you engage in any unauthorized conduct, or if we, in our sole discretion, believe that you have engaged in, or are engaging in, unauthorized conduct you will be deemed to have violated this Agreement, and we may suspend or terminate your Membership, end your Rental Period and deem any continued use as unauthorized and with the intent to deprive us of the Vehicle, prevent you from renting another Vehicle, and/or take such other actions as permissible under and to the fullest extent of the law.

You agree not to operate the Vehicle if any conditions exist that you believe may affect its safety or operability. You also agree to report accidents, breakdowns, defects/malfunctions or damage involving a Vehicle or its equipment, regardless of how minor you think it may have been, by immediately contacting Member Support by telephone [see Section 1 (How to Contact Us)] for assistance.

  • 19.1 Vehicle Damage, Loss or Theft During Your Rental Period

In the event a Vehicle is damaged or stolen during your Rental Period, and to the extent permitted by law, you are responsible to pay for:

  • Physical or mechanical damage to the Vehicle up to its fair market value resulting from collision regardless of the cause of the damage;Loss due to theft of the Vehicle up to its fair market value resulting from your failure to exercise ordinary care while in possession of the Vehicle;

  • Actual charges for towing, storage, and impound fees; and
  • An administrative charge, which shall include the cost of appraisal and all other costs and expenses incident to the damage, loss, repair, or replacement of the Vehicle.
  • 19.2  You should inform us immediately of any potential insurance coverage or any other potential sources of compensation for any damage, loss or theft of the Vehicle or equipment. If you receive any such payment or compensation from another person (including your own insurance provider), you agree to pay such funds to us. You also agree to execute all papers and do everything necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of any documents necessary to enable us to effectively bring suit in your name, and agree that you shall not do anything to prejudice our position or potential or actual rights of recovery/subrogation. We will apply your payment to reduce any amount you owe us in connection with the damaged, lost or stolen Vehicle or equipment. Damage Fee

If you are in compliance with this Agreement, your responsibility for damages to the Vehicle shall be limited to $1,000 for non-AAA Members or $900 for AAA Members (the “Damage Fee”). You will be responsible for any damages up to the full amount of the Damage Fee including for actual, estimated or projected expenses, whether or not an actual claim is made or processed. In the event you have insurance or another source of compensation that covers the damage to the Vehicle, your responsibility for damages to the Vehicle will exceed the Damage Fee up to the limit of any available insurance or other source of compensation, however, in no event will we ask you to pay more than the amount of the Damage Fee toward any deductible. If you breach this Agreement, including but not limited to failing to use a Vehicle and its equipment in accordance with all applicable laws, including traffic laws, this Agreement and the Vehicle owner’s manual, this limitation on your responsibility for damages to the Vehicle will not apply and you will be responsible for all damages to the extent permitted by law.

20. Your Indemnification Obligations

Without restricting the other remedies available to us, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, you shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us, our affiliated companies (such as parent companies and subsidiaries), partners, agents, Third-Party Service Providers and successors-in-interest (the “Indemnified Parties”) from all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, claims, demands, costs, attorneys’ fees, and other expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties in any manner arising from or in connection with: (i) your use of and access to the GIG Services, including any data or content transmitted or received by you; (ii) your violation of any term of this Agreement; (iii) your violation of any third-party right, including, without limitation, any right of privacy, publicity rights or intellectual property rights; (iv) your violation of any law, rule, or regulation of the United States or any other country; or (v) any other party’s access and use of the GIG Services with your unique username, password, or other appropriate security code.

21. Negligence or Other Unauthorized Conduct

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we reserve all rights to pursue any and all available legal remedies in connection with any negligence, unauthorized conduct, or default of this Agreement by you.

22. Insurance

  • 22.1 Third-Party Liability Insurance

We have insurance providing protection against claims by other third parties (“Third-Party Liability Insurance”) for the Vehicles. This insurance provides coverage for active GIG Members for bodily injury and property damage costs to other parties relating to an accident for which the GIG Member may be legally liable up to the following limits of liability: $100,000 of coverage is the maximum payable for bodily injury per person, $300,000 of coverage is the maximum payable for bodily injuries for each accident and $50,000 of coverage is the maximum payable for property damage. GIG Members are also provided with uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage for up to $15,000 bodily injury per person and $30,000 bodily injury for each accident. All insurance is subject to (i) such GIG Member complying with all obligations as set forth in this Agreement, and (ii) the terms and conditions of such insurance policy.

We make no representation or warranty as to the adequacy of the terms or policy limit of the Third-Party Liability Insurance. We do not act as your agent in placing the Third-Party Liability Insurance and we assume no responsibility for the actions of the insurer(s) and their handling of any claim. We encourage you to consult with your own insurance agent or broker of choice should you wish to consider acquiring the protection of additional insurance coverage.

If you are involved in an accident while using a Vehicle, or if a third party makes any demand, asserts you are liable to them, or files a lawsuit against you in connection with your use of a Vehicle (or if you have reason to believe that a third party will do so in the future), do not admit any liability or responsibility, and immediately report the accident or incident to Member Support for support [see Section 1 (How to Contact Us)].

Failure to immediately report any accident or incident could prevent you from receiving coverage under the Third-Party Liability Insurance. Note that operating a Vehicle in breach of the terms of this Agreement may result in loss of the protection of the Third-Party Liability Insurance.

  • 22.2 Third-Party Liability Insurance Does Not Cover Damage to Vehicle Itself

The Third-Party Liability Insurance does not cover you with respect to damage to the Vehicle itself, and does not relieve you of your obligation to us to ensure that the Vehicle is not damaged during your rental (whether or not you are at fault). Third-Party Liability Insurance does not reduce or otherwise affect your responsibility to us or any other person.

23. Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION OF THE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY.

This section provides that disputes between you and us may be exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, as set forth below. Arbitration replaces the right to go to court, have a jury trial or initiate or participate in a class action. In arbitration, disputes are resolved by an arbitrator, not a judge or jury. This Section 23 (Binding Arbitration) is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), and shall be interpreted in the broadest way the law will allow.

  • 23.1 Pre-Dispute Resolution Procedure

Before asserting a claim in any proceeding, you and A3 Mobility agree to make a reasonable good faith effort to resolve the claim. In no event shall any party commence any proceeding without first providing the other party private written notice of the claim to be asserted 30 days before initiating the proceeding.  If you are intending to assert a claim against A3 Mobility, you must send the written notice of the claim to:

A3 Mobility LLC
1919 Shattuck Ave., 6th Floor
Berkeley, CA 94704

If A3 Mobility intends to assert a claim against you, we will send written notice of the claim to you at the address associated with your Account. 

NO SETTLEMENT DEMAND OR SETTLEMENT OFFER USED IN THIS PRE-DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS MAY BE USED IN ANY PROCEEDING, INCLUDING AS EVIDENCE OR AS AN ADMISSION OF ANY LIABILITY OR DAMAGES (OR LACK THEREOF).

  • 23.2 Covered Claims

You or we may arbitrate any claim, dispute or controversy between you and us arising out of or related to your current or previous Membership, or this Agreement (“Claims”). If arbitration is chosen by any party, neither you nor we will have the right to litigate that Claim in court or have a jury trial on that Claim. Except as set forth below, all Claims are subject to arbitration, no matter what legal theory they are based on or what remedy (damages, or injunctive or declaratory relief) they seek, including Claims based on contract, tort (including intentional tort), fraud, agency, your or our negligence, statutory or regulatory provisions, or any other sources of law; Claims made as counterclaims, cross-claims, third-party claims, interpleaders or otherwise; Claims made regarding past, present, or future conduct; and Claims made independently or with other Claims. This also includes Claims made by or against anyone connected with us or you or claiming through us or you, or by someone making a Claim through us or you, such as an agent, representative, third party vendor or an affiliated/parent/subsidiary company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will have the right to seek preliminary injunctive relief immediately and without first going through the arbitration process set forth above to protect our intellectual property or confidential or proprietary information.

  • 23.3 Arbitration Limits

Individual Claims filed in a small claims court are not subject to arbitration, as long as the matter remains in small claims court.

If you assert a Claim against us, we can choose to arbitrate, including actions to collect a debt from you. You may arbitrate on an individual basis Claims brought against you, including Claims to collect a debt.

  • 23.4 Claims brought as part of a class action, private attorney general or other representative action can be arbitrated only on an individual basis. The arbitrator has no authority to arbitrate any Claim on a class or representative basis and may award relief only on an individual basis. If arbitration is chosen by any party, neither you nor we may pursue a Claim as part of a class action or other representative action. Claims of two (2) or more persons may not be combined in the same arbitration. Administration
