Terms of Sale

By placing an order, you are offering to purchase or rent a product (i.e. vehicle) on and subject to the following terms and conditions. All orders are subject to availability and confirmation of the order price. Dispatch times may vary according to availability and subject to any delays resulting from postal delays or force majeure for which we will not be responsible. In order to contract with Evoto Inc., you must be over 18 years of age and possess a valid credit or debit card issued by a bank acceptable to us.

Evoto Inc. retains the right to refuse any request made by you. If your order is accepted we will inform you by email and we will confirm the identity of the party which you have contracted with. This will usually be Evoto Inc. or may in some cases be a third party.

Where a contract is made with a third party Evoto Inc. is not acting as either agent or principal and the contract is made between yourself and that third party and will be subject to the terms of sale which they supply you.

When placing an order you undertake that all details you provide to us are true and accurate, that you are an authorized user of the credit or debit card used to place your order and that there are sufficient funds to cover the cost of the goods. The cost of foreign products and services may fluctuate.

ALL PRICES ADVERTISED ARE SUBJECT TO SUCH CHANGES

(a) Our Contract: When you place an order, you will receive an acknowledgment e-mail confirming receipt of your order: this email will only be an acknowledgment and will not constitute acceptance of your order. A contract between us will not be formed until we send you confirmation by e-mail that the booking is confirmed and the payment is received. Only the product/service listed in the confirmation e-mail sent at the time of payment will be included in the contract formed.

(b) Pricing and Availability: Whilst we try and ensure that all details, descriptions, and prices which appear on this Website are accurate, errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of any goods which you have ordered, we will inform you of this as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or canceling it. If we are unable to contact you, we will treat the order as canceled. If you cancel and you have already paid for the goods, you will receive a full refund. Delivery costs will be charged in addition; such additional charges are clearly displayed where applicable and included in the ‘Total Cost’.

(c) Payment: Upon receiving your order, we carry out a standard authorization check on your payment card to ensure there are sufficient funds to fulfill the transaction and the security deposit. Your card will be debited upon authorization being received. The monies received upon the debiting of your card shall be treated as a deposit against the value of the goods you wish to rent/purchase. Once the booking is processed and you have been sent a confirmation email, the monies paid as a deposit shall be used as consideration for the value of goods you have purchased as listed in the confirmation email.

(d) Deposit Policy: During payment when you book your vehicle, you will be asked to leave a deposit for your rental. The deposit amount will be authorized on your credit card but not debited from your account. The deposit is intended to cover additional rental costs and minor damage costs. The deposit amount will be a minimum of 2,000 CAD and varies based on your risk evaluation. You will have the option to put both rental price and deposit on the same card or on different cards as long as you are authorized to use both cards. In both cases, the rental price will be debited upon booking, and the deposit amount will be authorized on your credit card upon booking.

(e) Means of payment:

A. Payment: Payment will be made at the time of booking. The full rental price including any taxes and other fees will be charged upon confirmation of the booking online. The deposit amount will be authorized on the card and released after the agreement is completed and the vehicle is returned to Evoto unless any unpaid amounts have to be charged.

B. Means of payment: Payments can be made using the following means of payment: Credit card(s): Credit cards usually accepted within Evoto Inc. are “American Express”, “Diners Club”, “MasterCard” and “Visa”. Warning: Please note that payment using credit(s) card(s) is (are) accepted in accordance with the limits authorized by your credit card issuer. The credit card holder must be identified as the renter (the “Main driver” to be mentioned in the rental agreement).

Such person must present his/her credit card (identified with the same name) at the time of check out. Other Methods: Online payment services, Apple Pay, and PayPal are also accepted methods of payment. Cash/cheque: Payments in cash or by cheque are not accepted.
