GOOZONE
Terms of Service

The rules of the road for sellers, buyers, and drivers on the Goozone marketplace. Please read them carefully.

Sellers Buyers Drivers Trinidad & Tobago

★ Quick Summary

This is a long document. We know. But we wrote it so anyone can understand it — no fancy lawyer words. Here's the short version:

  • Goozone is the marketplace. We connect sellers with buyers and handle delivery.
  • Sellers are responsible for keeping their listings accurate, having products ready for pickup, and following the rules.
  • Buyers pay for their items plus delivery. If something goes wrong, we have clear rules about who pays.
  • Goozone holds all money until the package is delivered. You can request a withdrawal when your balance hits TTD 200.
  • No drugs, weapons, or dangerous items allowed on the platform. See the full list in Section 4.
  • If you break the rules, we may suspend or remove your account.

1 Welcome to Goozone

Goozone ("we," "us," or "our") runs an online marketplace where sellers can list products, buyers can buy them, and we help get them delivered. These Terms of Service ("Terms") are the rules that everyone — sellers, buyers, and drivers — agrees to when they use Goozone.

By signing up, you agree to follow these rules. If you do not agree, do not use Goozone.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make a big change, we will let you know by email or a notice on the website. If you keep using Goozone after the change, that means you accept the new rules.

2 Who Can Sell on Goozone

To sell on Goozone, you need:

  • A valid bank account in Trinidad & Tobago
  • A phone number and email address that work
  • To be at least 18 years old, or have a parent or guardian manage the account
  • A registered business OR be an individual selling your own items (side hustles welcome)

You are responsible for keeping your account login information safe. If someone else uses your account, you are still responsible for what they do.

Important: You can only have one seller account. If you need more, ask us first.

3 Your Store & What You List

When you list something on Goozone, you are telling buyers: "I have this item, it costs this much, and I am ready to sell it." You must make sure everything you put in your listing is true.

You are responsible for:

  • Product names and descriptions — Describe your item honestly. Do not lie about what it is, what it does, or what it is made of.
  • Photos — Use real photos of your actual item. Do not use stock photos or pictures from another seller.
  • Price — List the correct price in Trinidad & Tobago dollars (TTD). The price you show is what the buyer pays. You cannot charge more after a sale.
  • Stock count — Keep your inventory numbers up to date. If you sell an item outside of Goozone (for example, on Instagram), update your Goozone stock so you do not oversell.
  • Availability — If an item is out of stock, remove it or mark it as unavailable.
Goozone's Role

We display your listings on our website. But you are the seller. If a listing has a mistake — wrong price, wrong photo, wrong description — that is on you, not us. We cannot check every item. You know your products best.

⚠ If you list a product at the wrong price, you still have to sell it at that price. Check before you publish.

4 What You CAN'T Sell on Goozone

Some items are not allowed on Goozone — period. If you list them, we will remove your listing, and we may close your account. These rules follow the same standards used by Amazon, eBay, and other major marketplaces.

⚠ Restricted — You Need Approval

These items may be allowed, but you must contact us first for permission:

  • Alcohol and tobacco — Must follow all T&T laws. We need to verify your license.
  • Perishable food & baked goods — Must be properly packaged and labeled with expiry dates. We are not liable if food spoils during delivery.
  • Fragile glass items — You must package them so they survive a drop. We will do our best with delivery, but we cannot guarantee glass will not break.
  • Liquids — Must be sealed tight with no leaks. No large containers (over 1 liter) without approval.
  • Vapes & e-cigarettes — Must follow local laws. You need a valid license.

If you are not sure whether something is allowed, ask us before you list it. It is better to check first than to have your account suspended.

5 How Pricing & Fees Work

What Buyers Pay

When a buyer purchases from your store, they pay:

  • The price of the item — Whatever you listed it for
  • A delivery fee — Based on the type of delivery they choose (see below)

The buyer always pays delivery. Sellers never pay delivery fees.

Available Delivery Options

TypePriceWhen
Standard Delivery TTD 40 1–3 business days. Covers 80+ locations across Trinidad. See the full list below.

Standard delivery takes 1–3 business days depending on the location. For same-day delivery, contact our customer service team — they will give you a price quote based on where you are.

What Sellers Pay

Sellers do not pay delivery fees. You list your item, we deliver it. The delivery fee is always paid by the buyer.

Seller Plans & Commission Rates

Goozone charges a commission on each sale. The rate depends on which plan you choose. You pick your plan when you sign up, and you can change it anytime.

PlanMonthly FeeCommission per SaleBest For
StarterTTD 0 — Free15%New sellers testing the waters (up to 3 products)
Basic ★TTD 500/mo8%Growing sellers — includes TTD 150 boost credit
ProTTD 1,300/mo3%High-volume sellers — unlimited products, dedicated account manager
Example — How Commission Works

You sell a necklace for TTD 100 with standard delivery (TTD 40 fee paid by the buyer).
Starter: 15% × TTD 100 = TTD 15 commission → You earn TTD 85
Basic: 8% × TTD 100 = TTD 8 commission → You earn TTD 92
Pro: 3% × TTD 100 = TTD 3 commission → You earn TTD 97
The TTD 40 delivery fee is ours in all plans.

💡 Tip: Most sellers start on Starter (free) and upgrade to Basic once they have more products and consistent sales. The Basic plan's TTD 150 boost credit helps you reach more buyers.

6 How You Get Paid

Where Does the Money Go?

When a buyer pays (by card, bank transfer, or cash), the money goes first to Goozone's account. We hold it safely. Once the package is marked as delivered successfully, the money shows up in your seller dashboard under "Earnings."

You do not get paid directly by the buyer. This protects everyone. If something goes wrong, we handle it — you do not have to chase anyone for payment.

How to Withdraw Your Money

  • You need at least TTD 200 in your balance to request a withdrawal.
  • Go to your seller dashboard and click "Request Withdrawal."
  • We send the money to your bank account. It usually takes 1–3 business days to arrive.
  • Withdrawals are manual right now. You have to go request it. We are working on automatic payouts.

⚠ Your balance shows what you have earned from completed deliveries only. If a delivery is still in progress, that money is not available yet.

7 Cash on Delivery (COD)

Some buyers prefer to pay in cash when the package arrives. Here is how that works:

  • The buyer selects "Cash on Delivery" when checking out.
  • Our driver delivers the package and collects the cash.
  • The driver deposits that cash into Goozone's account.
  • Once the deposit is confirmed, the money shows up in your Earnings balance — just like a card payment.

Same rules apply: You need TTD 200 to withdraw, and withdrawals are manual. COD payments are not faster or slower than card payments. The clock starts when the delivery is marked complete.

  • Standard delivery takes 1–3 business days depending on the location.
  • Same-day delivery is available — contact our customer service team for a price quote. They will negotiate the price based on the pickup and drop-off locations.

Free Meet-Up at C3 Mall

Buyers and sellers can arrange a free meet-up at C3 Mall. The buyer selects this option at checkout, and both parties agree on a pickup time. No delivery fee — no driver needed.

What About Expansion?

Goozone plans to grow. We are signing up new drivers, and we may set up warehouses in other locations. We make decisions based on where our customers are. If we get a lot of business in Tobago, we go to Tobago. If your customers are in a place we do not cover yet, let us know — it helps us decide where to go next.

9 Package Size & Weight Limits

Our drivers deliver in regular cars. Your package needs to fit in a car. Here are the rules:

WhatLimit
Maximum weight (standard)50 pounds (22.7 kg)
Maximum size (any side)120 cm (47 inches)
Must fit insideA regular car trunk or back seat
Typical packagesUnder 10 pounds (4.5 kg) — most of our deliveries

If your package is over 50 pounds, that is fine — but we need to talk about it. We will give you a custom quote for delivery. Each case is handled separately.

No extra fee for standard packages. The TTD 40 delivery fee covers anything that fits in a car and is under 50 lbs. We do not charge extra just because your item is a little bigger or heavier.

Pack it safely. If your item is fragile, use bubble wrap, packing paper, or a sturdy box. We are careful, but if the package falls apart because of bad packing, that is on you.

9.5 Driver Payments & Bonuses

If you are signing up as a driver on Goozone, here is how you get paid. These rates are current and may be updated from time to time. We will always let you know before any changes take effect.

Payment Per Delivery

The rate for each completed delivery depends on how many orders are assigned to you that day:

Orders Assigned That DayRate Per Completed Delivery
20 or more orders assignedTTD 20
Fewer than 20 orders assignedTTD 30

TTPOST Deliveries

If you make multiple TTPOST deliveries on the same day, they count as one (1) delivery for payment purposes. But each package is still counted individually toward your monthly delivery tally (for bonuses).

Performance Bonus

Drivers who hit the following delivery milestones within a calendar month earn a performance bonus:

Successful Deliveries (per month)Bonus
100TTD 200
200TTD 400
300TTD 1,000

Attendance Bonus

Drivers who work more than 16 days within a calendar month receive an Attendance Bonus of TTD 1,500.

⚠ Bonuses are based on completed and successfully delivered orders only. Cancelled, rejected, or failed deliveries do not count toward bonus tallies.

10 When a Buyer Cancels or Rejects

Who Pays the TTD 40 Delivery Fee?

If a buyer cancels an order before we ship it, no one pays the delivery fee. Simple.

If our driver is already on the way and the buyer changes their mind, does not answer the door, or refuses the package — Goozone covers the cost. Not the seller.

There is one exception: If our driver shows up to collect the package from you (the seller) and you do not have it ready, or you are not there — then you may be responsible for the delivery cost. So have your items ready when you get a sale notification.

Bottom Line

If the buyer flakes, we eat the cost. You only pay if you are not ready when we come to get the package.

11 Returns & Refunds

If the Buyer Does Not Want the Item

Sometimes a buyer changes their mind after the package arrives. Here is what happens:

  • The buyer pays for the return delivery (another TTD 40).
  • The buyer does not have to pay for the product itself — they just pay the delivery.
  • The product comes back to you, the seller.

Sellers do not pay for return delivery. The buyer covers it. If the item is damaged or not as described, different rules may apply — contact support.

If the Item Is Damaged or Wrong

If the buyer says the item arrived damaged or is not what they ordered:

  • We will ask for photos and details from both sides.
  • If it is the seller's fault (wrong item sent, poor packaging that caused damage) — the seller covers the return cost.
  • If it happened during delivery — we handle it with the driver.
  • If the buyer is lying — we investigate and decide fairly.

12 Your Store URL & Domain

When we set up your store on Goozone, it will have an address like:

goozone.com/shop/yourbrandname

If you already own a domain (like mybrandname.com), we can help you set up a redirect. That means when someone types "mybrandname.com" in their browser, they will be sent to "goozone.com/shop/yourbrandname." Easy.

Your own domain stays yours. We just point it to your Goozone store.

13 Managing Your Inventory

Right now, Goozone does not have automatic syncing with other apps like Instagram or your own website. If you sell the same item on multiple platforms, you need to keep track yourself.

But we make it easy:

  • You can export your inventory to a file (like Excel or CSV), make changes, and import it back in bulk — no need to edit one by one.
  • If you need a full system to manage inventory, warehouses, and multiple sellers, contact us. We have an option to turn your Goozone store into a more powerful tool.

⚠ You are responsible for overselling. If you sell an item on Instagram and do not update your Goozone stock, and someone buys it here — you have to find a way to fulfill it. Keep your numbers right.

14 Your Responsibilities as a Seller

This section matters. Read it twice.

When you sell on Goozone, you are running your own business. We provide the platform and the delivery. You provide the products and the service. Here is what we expect from you:

🔹 Listings Must Be Accurate

Every time you post a product, check: Is the photo right? Is the price right? Is the description honest? If a buyer gets something different from what you listed, that is your problem to fix.

🔹 Stock Must Be Up to Date

If something sells out, remove it. If you sell elsewhere, update your count. Overselling = unhappy customers = bad for everyone.

🔹 Packages Must Be Ready

When a sale comes in, you need to have the item packed and ready for pickup. If our driver arrives and you are not ready, you may be charged for the wasted trip. Be ready.

🔹 Prices Are Final

The price you list is the price the buyer pays. No adding fees, no changing the price after a sale. If you made a mistake, contact us — but we cannot promise we can fix it.

🔹 Follow the Law

You are responsible for making sure everything you sell follows the laws of Trinidad & Tobago. Goozone is a platform — we are not your lawyer. If you sell something illegal, you are on your own.

🔹 Be Professional

Respond to messages. Ship on time. Treat buyers with respect. If you get too many complaints, we may close your account.

The Big One — Indemnification

You agree to cover Goozone's costs if you cause a problem. If you break these rules, sell something illegal, or get us sued because of something you did, you pay for it. This includes legal fees, refunds to customers, and any fines. We are a marketplace. You are the seller. The buck stops with you.

15 What Happens If Rules Are Broken

We want every seller to succeed. But if you break the rules, we have to act. Here is how it works:

What You DoWhat Happens
Small mistake (wrong photo, typo in price)We warn you and ask you to fix it
Repeated small mistakesWe may pause your listings until you correct them
Selling banned itemsImmediate removal of listings. Possible account suspension.
Fraud, lying, or stealingAccount closed immediately. We may report you to the authorities.
Too many complaints or failed deliveriesWe review your account and may suspend you

If we suspend or close your account, we will tell you why. You can ask us to review the decision. Our goal is to be fair, but we will act fast to protect buyers and other sellers.

16 Goozone's Responsibility (Liability)

We built Goozone to help you sell. But we need to be clear about what we are — and are not — responsible for.

What Goozone Is Responsible For

  • Running the website so it works
  • Processing payments safely and correctly
  • Delivering packages within our delivery zones
  • Handling customer support for platform issues (payment problems, website bugs)

What Goozone Is NOT Responsible For

  • Your products. If a product is defective, dangerous, or not what the buyer expected — that is on you.
  • Your listings. If you put the wrong price or wrong photo, we are not responsible.
  • Your inventory. If you oversell, that is your problem to solve.
  • Third-party delivery delays. If TTPOST takes longer than expected, we are sorry but we cannot control it.
  • Lost profits. If your business loses money because of a technical problem or a delivery delay, we are not liable. Our maximum responsibility is the total fees you paid us in the last 3 months.
  • Things outside our control. Natural disasters, strikes, internet outages, government actions — if we cannot control it, we are not responsible for it.
In Simple Terms

Goozone is the marketplace, not the seller. We connect you with buyers and handle delivery. You run your business. We run the platform. If something goes wrong with your business, it is your responsibility to fix it.

17 Legal Stuff — Disputes & Law

Which Laws Apply

These Terms follow the laws of Trinidad & Tobago. If there is a legal question, T&T law decides.

If There Is a Dispute

If you have a problem with Goozone, talk to us first. Most things can be fixed with a conversation.

If we cannot agree, here is what happens:

  • We try mediation first — a neutral person helps us talk it out.
  • If that does not work, we go to arbitration. That means a neutral person (not a judge) makes a decision. Both sides agree to follow that decision.

Time Limit

You must bring any claim within one year of the problem happening. After that, you cannot make a claim.

18 Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will:

  • Post the new version on this page
  • Update the "Last Updated" date at the top
  • Email you if the change is important

If you keep using Goozone after the changes, you are agreeing to the new Terms. If you do not agree, you should stop using Goozone and close your account.
