3. URBANMOUNT PLATFORM OVERVIEW
3.1 Platform Description
UrbanMount offers an online marketplace and related mobile apps that facilitate connections between Clients seeking short-term home services (e.g., furniture assembly, TV mounting, cleaning, moving, handyman tasks) and Specialists who can perform those Services.

If you register on behalf of a business or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to this Agreement.
5. SPECIALIST/CLIENT RELATIONSHIP
5.1 Independent Contractor Status
Specialists offering Services through the UrbanMount Platform are independent business owners. They set their own rates (subject to certain booking models), supply their own tools, and control how they perform their Services.
5.2 No Agency or Employment
Nothing in this Agreement creates an employment relationship, partnership, franchise, or joint venture between UrbanMount and any Specialist. UrbanMount does not direct or control Specialists’ performance or methods.
5.3 Client’s Responsibility to Select Qualified Specialists
Clients bear full responsibility for:
- Evaluating Specialist profiles, backgrounds, credentials, and reviews.
- Confirming that a Specialist holds any required licenses or qualifications.
- Ensuring the Service requested is lawful and feasible.
5.4 Limitations on UrbanMount’s Role
UrbanMount does not:
- Warrant or guarantee that a Specialist is qualified, licensed, or insured, beyond disclaimers in Section 7.
- Supervise or direct the manner in which Services are performed.
6. SERVICE BOOKING METHODS
UrbanMount offers three primary booking methods:
6.1 AutoMatch
- Upfront Pricing: Clients pay based on itemized tasks.
- Dispatch: If 5 or more Specialists in the relevant zip code meet the criteria, the system automatically assigns one, factoring in performance scores (Section 13).
- Reassignment: Clients can request a different Specialist within 30 minutes of acceptance.
- Service Agreement: Once assigned, the Specialist and Client form a direct contract for those tasks.
6.2 Direct Booking
- Client-Selected: The Client manually chooses a Specialist from a list.
- Custom Offer: The Specialist may propose a custom quote that the Client can accept or reject.
- Rejection Cooldown: If the Client rejects, they cannot reselect that Specialist for 7 days.
- Binding Agreement: Acceptance finalizes a contract directly between the two Users.
6.3 Custom Offers (In-Platform & Off-Platform Links)
- Off-Platform Link: Specialists may generate a unique URL for the Client to view and accept a custom quote.
- In-App Chat Restriction: The Client cannot chat in-app until the offer is accepted.
- Agreement Formation: Upon acceptance, a direct legal agreement is formed between the Client and Specialist.
6.4 Service Agreement Formation
Once a Specialist acknowledges acceptance (AutoMatch) or the Client accepts the Specialist’s offer (Direct Booking / Custom Offer), they form a Service Agreement. UrbanMount is not a party to that agreement.
6.5 Negotiations, Reassignments, and Cancellations
- Negotiations: Clients and Specialists may negotiate details (e.g., price, schedule, scope) through chat or offer links.
- Reassignments: Clients can request a new Specialist if they are unsatisfied within the guidelines provided.

UrbanMount may coordinate third-party background checks (criminal, identity, etc.) for Specialists during onboarding or periodically thereafter. However:

- Scope: Different states have varying rules on background checks. We comply with applicable laws but disclaim liability for oversights.
7.2 Insurance Verification & “Insured” Badges
- Specialists may submit proof of insurance at registration or monthly checks. UrbanMount may display an “Insured” badge if the documentation appears current.
- Fraudulent Submissions: Specialists can potentially submit false or expired documents. UrbanMount does not warrant the authenticity of any insurance policy or coverage scope.
7.3 Disclaimers of Accuracy
Any reference to “licensed,” “background checked,” “insured,” “vetted,” or similar does not ensure the Specialist actually meets these standards. Users must independently assess a Specialist’s credentials and coverage.

9.1 Payment Authorization and Fees
9.1.1 Authorization
By booking or purchasing any Professional Service or Merchandise through the UrbanMount Platform, you authorize UrbanMount (or its third-party payment processor) to charge your designated payment method for all applicable amounts, including fees, expenses, tips, transaction taxes, or other charges you agree to.
UrbanMount may, in its sole discretion, place a hold on your credit card or other payment method in anticipation of upcoming or completed transactions.
9.1.2 Payment Processing
UrbanMount uses third-party services to process credit card and other payment information. By providing your payment details, you grant UrbanMount (or its third-party provider) the right to handle and process all payment transactions.

9.1.3 Trust & Support Fee
In addition to Professional Services or Merchandise costs, UrbanMount may add a “Trust & Support Fee” to cover platform-related costs (e.g., background checks, customer support, insurance/claims administration).
This fee will be disclosed at checkout (or in the service price breakdown). By proceeding with the transaction, you acknowledge and agree to this fee.
9.1.4 Price Changes
The base price for a Professional Service is set by UrbanMount or by negotiation between you (the Client) and the Specialist. Certain factors (location, frequency, complexity) may influence final pricing.
UrbanMount may, at its discretion, adjust pricing or fees to correct errors or reflect changes in market conditions, provided we notify you of any material changes before your purchase is finalized.
9.2 Taxes and Withholdings
9.2.1 User Responsibility for Taxes

You hereby instruct and authorize UrbanMount to do so where legally applicable.
- Cessation: UrbanMount may cease collecting/remitting taxes in a particular jurisdiction if permitted by law. UrbanMount will notify affected Users if this occurs, but is not liable for any ongoing tax obligations you may have.
- Consult a Tax Advisor: We recommend you consult your own tax adviser to ensure compliance with all applicable tax reporting requirements, as UrbanMount does not offer specific tax advice.
9.2.3 Indemnity for Tax Non-Compliance

9.3.2 Cancellations
If you cancel a scheduled Professional Service, any refund or penalty is determined by the cancellation policy stated at the time of booking or any negotiated agreement between you and the Specialist.
UrbanMount may enforce or facilitate these cancellation terms but is not liable if you disagree with the outcome.
9.3.3 Chargebacks
- Client-Initiated Chargebacks: If a Client disputes a charge (e.g., via credit card), UrbanMount reserves the right to investigate. If the Specialist has already been paid, UrbanMount may withhold or offset future payments to the Specialist until the dispute is resolved.
- Fraud or Risk: If UrbanMount suspects fraudulent activity or excessive risk, we may delay or hold funds, require additional documentation, or permanently withhold payments to protect ourselves or other Users.
9.4 UM Credits (UrbanMount Credits)

9.4.4 Application to Service Requests
- Instant Deduction: Once you apply UM Credits to a Service request, the designated amount is considered spent at booking confirmation.
- No Refund of Credits: If you later cancel or receive a partial refund for the Service, any UM Credits used are not restored to your balance; refunds (if any) only apply to actual money paid.
9.4.5 No Convertibility to Cash
- No Cash Exchange: UM Credits may never be redeemed for cash, transferred to a bank account, or otherwise converted into a cash equivalent.
- Cancellation Refund: If a Service paid with UM Credits is canceled, any returned amount excludes the UM Credits portion.

9.5 Additional Payment and Tax Provisions
9.5.1 Security and Liability for Payment Information
UrbanMount uses commercially reasonable efforts to protect payment information (e.g., credit card data) but disclaims liability for damages resulting from unauthorized access to or release of such information unless required by law. You agree to hold us harmless in the event your payment information is compromised by third parties outside UrbanMount’s control.
9.5.2 Error Corrections or Adjustments
If UrbanMount discovers a billing error (overcharge, undercharge, etc.), we may correct it by charging or crediting the same payment method used. You agree to promptly notify UrbanMount of any suspected errors. Failure to do so may limit our ability to investigate or adjust.
9.5.3 Offsets and Withholding
If UrbanMount determines that your conduct or performance creates risk of returns, chargebacks, or disputes, we may withhold payments owed to you as a Specialist.
We reserve the right to offset amounts you owe UrbanMount against any amounts we owe you.
9.5.4 Third-Party Processors
UrbanMount may rely on independent payment processors or platforms. Your usage of these processors might be subject to their separate terms and privacy notices. UrbanMount disclaims liability for any processing errors or fees arising from such third-party services, except to the extent required by law.
10. SAFESTAY ASSURANCE
10.1 Purpose and Scope
The SafeStay Assurance (“SafeStay”) offers limited, last-resort protection for property damage or theft resulting from a Professional Service performed by a Specialist (a/k/a “Professional”) who was booked and paid through the UrbanMount Platform. SafeStay is not an insurance policy nor a personal safety guarantee—rather, it is a voluntary program providing potential recourse for specific property-related losses arising from certain negligent acts of a Specialist or from the Specialist’s direct misconduct.
Key Points:
- SafeStay only covers property damage or theft that is directly caused by the negligence or improper conduct of a Specialist during a Professional Service.
- SafeStay coverage is secondary to any applicable personal insurance you carry (e.g., homeowners, renters, umbrella). If your insurance covers the damage or theft, you must file a claim there first. SafeStay may only compensate for losses not covered by your primary insurance, up to the specified limits.
- SafeStay does not cover personal injury, bodily harm, or damage not directly related to the Professional Service.
- SafeStay is not insurance and UrbanMount is not an insurer, as such terms are generally understood for regulatory purposes.
10.2 Coverage Amounts and Options
At UrbanMount’s sole discretion, if you qualify for SafeStay coverage, we may:
- Arrange to have the Professional Service re-performed or remedied by another Specialist; or
- Provide monetary compensation up to the following limits, whichever is least:some text
- USD $2,500 per occurrence for losses arising from property damage caused by a Specialist’s negligence.
- USD $1,000 for damage to floors or items containing granite, marble, or similar stone surfaces, if that damage arises directly from the Specialist’s negligence.
- USD $2,500, in the aggregate, for theft of the Requester’s property by the Specialist during performance of a Professional Service.
Note: If there is overlap (e.g., a Specialist simultaneously damages stone surfaces and other property), each sub-limit applies only to that category of loss, and in no event does the total exceed $2,500 per service occurrence.
10.3 Eligibility Requirements
To be eligible for SafeStay coverage, all of the following conditions must be met:
- Payment Through UrbanMount: The Professional Service must be booked and paid in full via the UrbanMount Platform.
- Timely Reporting: You must report the issue within seventy-two (72) hours of the Specialist’s completion of the Professional Service by visiting the UrbanMount Help Center at www.urban-mount.com/help. If you fail to report within 72 hours, the claim is ineligible. For Recurring Services, each appointment is a separate occurrence.
- Good Standing: Your UrbanMount account must be in good standing (i.e., no outstanding balances owed to UrbanMount, no prior violations).
- Valuables & Fragile Items: You must have identified any fragile or breakable items and communicated their location/identity to the Specialist prior to starting the Service, and you secured or accounted for all valuables before the Service commenced.
- No Violation of the Agreement: You have not violated UrbanMount’s Terms of Service or engaged in any fraudulent or abusive behavior.
- Primary Insurance: If you carry Personal Insurance (renters, homeowners, etc.), you must first pursue coverage there. SafeStay is secondary and will only compensate to the extent your personal policy does not cover the loss.
10.4 Exclusions from SafeStay
The SafeStay Assurance does not cover:
- Any Professional Service not booked and fully paid through the UrbanMount Platform.
- Merchandise (e.g., the product or item being installed or assembled), except to the extent damage is caused by negligence during the assembly/installation process; manufacturer defects remain excluded.
- Acts of Nature: Pollution, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, or other weather-related events.
- Interruption of Business, Market, or Income: No coverage for lost profits, lost business, or inability to use the damaged item.
- Property Damage/Theft beyond the item’s original or replacement value (less standard depreciation).
- Requesters’ Acts/Omissions or Third-Party Misconduct: Any damage caused by the Requester’s own actions or advice, or by a third party not booked through UrbanMount.
- Flooding / Water Damage: Including mold, fungi, or bacterial issues.
- Hazardous Materials, Terrorism, Pollution: Any product liability issue or acts of terrorism.
- Cash, Gift Cards, Securities: Loss of currency, financial instruments, or intangible assets.
- Intentional Wrongful Act by a Specialist (except theft coverage is limited to $2,500).
- Normal Wear and Tear or Items Retaining Functionality (e.g., minor cosmetic scratches).
- Fine Arts, Collectibles, or Antiques: E.g., paintings, sculptures, rare art glass, antique automobiles, coins, jewelry, or items of unusual value due to rarity/historical significance.
- Damage Beyond the Specific Area: Coverage is limited to the direct damaged area (e.g., if flooring is damaged, coverage is limited to the affected square footage after depreciation).
- Loss of Use: No coverage for storage or insurance costs arising from losing use of property.
- Losses Excluded Elsewhere in UrbanMount’s Terms (e.g., disclaimers in the Liability section).
- Sentimental or Undocumented Intangible Value: No coverage for personal or emotional value.
- Electronic Data Loss: E.g., computer programs, files, or data.
- Repairs Outside the Work Area: Losses related to repairs or tasks outside the scope of the original Professional Service.
- Pets, Shared/Common Areas: Pet injury or property damage in shared building spaces.
- Shipping or Replacement Taxes: No coverage for shipping costs or taxes on replaced items.
- Insufficient Documentation: If you fail to provide the documentation required by UrbanMount to process the claim (detailed in X.7).
- Post-Service or Unrelated Losses: If the damage or theft is discovered after an unrelated event or beyond 72 hours from Service completion.
- Unlawful Services: Services or tasks prohibited by law or that violate the Terms.
- Latent Premises Defects: Underlying property issues not caused by the Specialist.
- Services Not Booked Through UrbanMount or claims reported by third parties, not the Requester.
10.5 Personal Insurance as Primary
If you have homeowner’s insurance, renter’s insurance, umbrella coverage, or any other policy that can cover the loss, that policy is primary. SafeStay only applies to uncovered amounts of your loss up to our specified cap.
10.6 Monetary Limits
- Property Damage (Non-Stone): Up to USD $2,500.
- Stone/Granite/Marble Damage: Up to USD $1,000.
- Theft: Up to USD $2,500 in aggregate for theft by a Specialist.
- Aggregate for Single Occurrence: Under no scenario can the total coverage exceed USD $2,500 for one Professional Service occurrence.
- Recurring Services: Each individual appointment is treated as a separate occurrence.
10.7 Filing a Claim and Your Obligations
- Initial Report: You must report the claim to UrbanMount within 72 hours of the Specialist’s completion of the Service. Failure to do so invalidates coverage.
- Claim Form: Once you initiate a claim, you will be asked to complete a full claim form within 7 days of receiving it. Failure to submit a properly completed form on time closes your claim.
- Supporting Documentation: You may be required to provide:some text
- Proof of ownership of the damaged or missing item.
- Proof of value (e.g., receipts, appraisals).
- Proof of damage or loss (photos, videos, inspection reports).
- If theft is alleged, a valid police report may be required.
- If requested, you have 30 days to provide these materials or arrange an extension with UrbanMount.
- Cooperation & Inspection: You agree to:some text
- Preserve any damaged property to avoid further harm.
- Allow UrbanMount or its insurer to inspect and make copies, photos, or recordings.
- Accept repairs or remediation if feasible.
- Accept replacement items only if repairs are not an option (subject to depreciation).
- Release & Subrogation: If we approve any part of your claim, you must sign a release agreement within 14 days of receipt. This release may assign to UrbanMount or its insurer the right to recover amounts from the Specialist or other responsible parties. Failure to sign and return the release voids your claim.
- Depreciation: Any replacement item or payment may reflect standard depreciation from the item’s age or condition.
10.8 Remedies and Withholding from Specialist
- If SafeStay pays a claim, UrbanMount may withhold future payouts to the Specialist responsible for the damage or theft, in order to recoup the amounts paid under this program.
- UrbanMount reserves the right to take legal action (e.g., subrogation) against the Specialist or any liable third party.
10.9 No Guarantee of Safety or Comprehensive Coverage
SafeStay Assurance is a voluntary, limited customer support offering. It does not guarantee:
- Personal safety or the absence of personal injury.
- Full reimbursement of your loss beyond the stated caps.
- That Specialists are insured or maintain any particular coverage.
10.10 Final Discretion
All SafeStay Assurance determinations, including eligibility, approval, partial approval, or denial of claims, are at UrbanMount’s sole discretion. This program may be modified or discontinued at any time, with or without notice, except for claims already submitted.
11. SERVICE AGREEMENTS BETWEEN USERS
11.1 Legal Relationship
When a Client and Specialist agree upon Services (through AutoMatch acceptance, Direct Booking acceptance, or Custom Offer acceptance), they enter a Service Agreement between themselves. UrbanMount is not a party.
11.2 Client’s Agent and Specialist Assistants
- Client’s Agent: A Client may designate another person to oversee the Service, and all instructions by that Agent bind the Client.
- Specialist Assistants: A Specialist may involve assistants, but only if the Client consents. The Specialist is solely responsible for paying or supervising those assistants.
11.3 Terms Incorporated by Reference
Any additional terms or disclaimers presented during booking (e.g., job-specific disclaimers) become part of the Service Agreement, provided they do not conflict with or expand UrbanMount’s obligations under this Agreement.
11.4 UrbanMount Not a Party
No aspect of a Service Agreement can modify or alter UrbanMount’s disclaimers, liability limitations, or position as a neutral technology provider.
12. USER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
12.1 Representations by All Users
You represent and warrant that:
- You are legally eligible to enter into this Agreement.
- You will comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and local ordinances.
- Any information or content you provide on the Platform is truthful and accurate.

- Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Platform’s systems.
13. PERFORMANCE SCORE
13.1 Overview of the Performance Score Algorithm
UrbanMount uses a proprietary algorithm (the “Performance Score”) to help determine the order and priority by which Specialists:
- Receive AutoMatch Requests (for Service categories and zip codes that support auto-dispatch).
- Appear in Search Results or “Direct Booking” listings on the UrbanMount Platform.
13.2 Key Contributing Factors
While we do not disclose the exact formula or relative weights of each factor, the Performance Score may include, but is not limited to, evaluation of:
- Acceptance Rate: Amount of reserved requests that are accepted.
- Service Completion: Percentage of accepted requests that are successfully completed without cancellation or dispute.
- Client Ratings and Reviews: Client feedback and average star ratings.
- Responsiveness: Speed of replying to Client inquiries, custom-offer negotiations, and overall communication behavior.
- No-Shows and Cancellations: Incidents where the Specialist failed to appear or initiated a last-minute cancellation.
- Customer Complaints: Reports of unprofessional behavior, misconduct, or other Service-related issues that UrbanMount deems relevant.
- Ongoing Compliance: Adherence to UrbanMount’s Terms of Service, including background check compliance, updated insurance, and other platform policies.
13.3 Impact of Negative Events
Certain events, including no-shows, client complaints, or cancellations initiated by the Specialist may trigger a decrease in Performance Score. However:
- Challenge and Review: Specialists have the ability to challenge a score decrease if they believe there were mitigating circumstances or incorrect information.
- Exceptions: UrbanMount may, in its sole discretion, grant exceptions or remove penalties when there is evidence of extenuating circumstances (e.g., client threats or harassment, safety concerns, medical emergencies, etc.).
- Safety Exceptions: If a Specialist reasonably cancels due to feeling unsafe with a particular client or location, UrbanMount may choose not to penalize the Specialist’s Performance Score.
- Documentation: UrbanMount may require supporting information or documentation to consider an exception (e.g., police reports, chat threads, etc.).
13.4 UrbanMount’s Discretion and Lack of Liability
- Modification of Algorithm: UrbanMount may change, update, or refine the Performance Score algorithm at any time, with or without notice, to reflect evolving business needs, user feedback, or marketplace conditions.
- No Guarantee of Outcome: A higher Performance Score does not guarantee that a Specialist:some text
- Is licensed, insured, or free from legal disputes;
- Will receive a specific number of jobs or income;
- Will be ranked consistently in the same position for each search query.
- No Employment Implication: The Performance Score is a tool to determine priority in job distribution and search ranking; it does not constitute supervision or control of a Specialist’s performance, schedule, or methods of work. UrbanMount does not direct how a Specialist completes tasks, nor does it create an employer-employee relationship.
- No Liability for Ranking: UrbanMount disclaims any liability for alleged damages or lost profits caused by a Specialist’s ranking or assignment under the Performance Score.
13.5 Appeals Process
Specialists who believe their Performance Score has been adversely affected by an unfair or erroneous event may request a formal review by contacting UrbanMount support. UrbanMount may, but is not obligated to:
- Conduct a Case-by-Case Review: Assess the disputed event (no-show, cancellation, complaint) and any evidence provided.
- Adjust the Specialist’s Score: In UrbanMount’s sole discretion, we may reinstate or revise the rating/score if we find sufficient grounds for an exception.
13.6 No Property Right or Entitlement
By participating as a Specialist on the UrbanMount Platform, you acknowledge and agree that you have no property right or entitlement to a particular Performance Score, search ranking, or job assignment. The Performance Score is purely an internal administrative tool used by UrbanMount to optimize the matching of Clients and Specialists.
13.7 Final and Binding Decisions
All determinations regarding Performance Score updates, ranking changes, penalty removals, or exceptions granted are made by UrbanMount in its sole discretion. Such decisions are final and binding on all parties. UrbanMount reserves the right to terminate or suspend a Specialist’s access to the Platform if there is evidence of tampering with or attempting to manipulate the Performance Score (e.g., fake reviews, malicious cancellation of competitors’ jobs, etc.).

Scope
Except for Excluded Disputes (Section 21.3), you and UrbanMount agree that any Dispute, past, present, or future, relating to this Agreement shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration (“Arbitration Agreement”). This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA).
Administration and Rules
Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and, where appropriate, Consumer Arbitration Rules.
See www.adr.org for details.
Arbitrator Authority
The arbitrator, not a court, has exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute about the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, except the Class Action Waiver (Section 21.4), which is determined by a court.
Costs and Fees
If you cannot pay arbitration fees, UrbanMount will ensure your share of fees is covered if required by AAA rules or applicable law. Each party remains responsible for its own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitrator or law provides otherwise.

- Small Claims Court
- Non-Arbitrable Statutes
- Injunctive Relief for irreparable harm or to preserve status quo.

No right or authority exists for class or collective actions.
Court Determination
Only a court of competent jurisdiction can decide any challenge to the Class Action Waiver’s enforceability or formation.
Effect of Waiver Invalidity
If a court finds the Class Action Waiver unenforceable, the entire Arbitration Agreement is null and void.
21.5 Arbitration Procedure
Initiation of Arbitration
A party must file a written demand for arbitration with the AAA before the statute of limitations expires.
Applicable Law
The arbitrator applies the same limitations and substantive law a court would apply.
Hearing Location
Unless agreed otherwise, the hearing occurs in your county/city of residence. If you reside outside the U.S., UrbanMount may designate a U.S. location or conduct the arbitration virtually.
Remedies
The arbitrator may award any remedy a court of competent jurisdiction could award under applicable law.
Written Decision
The arbitrator’s written award is binding, and a court with jurisdiction may enter judgment on it.
21.6 Opt-Out (Where Permitted)
30-Day Right to Opt Out
You may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice to UrbanMount within 30 days of first accepting this Agreement or after an updated arbitration section takes effect.
Method of Opt-Out
Send the opt-out notice to the address in Section 21.1. Provide your full name and the email address linked to your UrbanMount account.
