This agreement (public offer) is posted on the Internet on the official website of the Caterizi platform (hereinafter referred to as the “Website”). The agreement is considered concluded and enters into force for the Partner who has accepted the offer in the manner established by Section 7 of this agreement. Acceptance of this agreement means full and unconditional acceptance of all terms of the offer and is equivalent to an agreement concluded in written form.

1.1 Agency Services

On behalf of the Partner, Caterizi provides a set of marketplace and agency services aimed at facilitating the connection between the Partner and potential buyers (hereinafter referred to as “Clients”).

These services include, but are not limited to:

Caterizi is not a party to such contracts.

1.1A Marketplace Status

The Partner acknowledges that Caterizi operates an online marketplace platform that connects Clients with independent service providers.

Caterizi does not sell catering services, food, beverages, rentals, equipment, decoration, staffing services or any other event-related services.

All contractual obligations regarding the performance of the services remain solely between the Partner and the Client.

1.1B Intermediary Status

When processing reservation deposits through the Platform, Caterizi acts in the name and on behalf of the respective Partner as a disclosed intermediary.

The Partner remains the sole supplier and seller of the services provided to the Client.

Caterizi does not purchase, resell, or otherwise supply the services listed on the Platform.

Payments processed through the Platform represent reservation deposits collected on behalf of the Partner and do not change the contractual relationship between the Partner and the Client.

1.2 Legal Capacity of the Partner

The Partner guarantees that it is a duly registered and lawfully operating legal entity or individual entrepreneur authorized to provide the services listed on the Platform.

The Partner confirms that it possesses all necessary:

• licenses
• permits
• sanitary authorizations
• insurance (where applicable)

required by applicable laws to provide such services.

The Partner bears full responsibility for compliance with all legal requirements related to its activities.

1.3 Information Placement on the Platform

Caterizi publishes information about the Partner and the Partner’s services on the Platform, including but not limited to:

• the website caterizi.com
• mobile applications
• marketing channels
• information and contact centers

The format, structure, and presentation of Partner information on the Platform are determined by Caterizi.

Caterizi may edit, format, or adapt materials provided by the Partner for the purpose of maintaining a consistent presentation on the Platform.

The Partner undertakes to provide Caterizi with accurate and up-to-date information about its services, including but not limited to:

• menus
• service descriptions

The Partner grants Caterizi a non-exclusive right to use the Partner’s intellectual property, including:

• names
• trademarks
• logos
• photos
• service descriptions
• marketing materials

for the purposes of promoting the Partner’s services on the Platform.

This right is granted for the duration of the agreement within the territory of the European Union.

1.6 Best Price Guarantee

The Partner undertakes not to offer its services on the Platform at prices higher than those offered through other sales channels.

The Partner guarantees that prices and conditions offered on the Platform are no less favorable than those offered elsewhere.

If a lower price is discovered on another channel, Caterizi may:

• request price adjustment
• compensate the Client for the price difference

The Partner bears full responsibility for the proper and timely execution of all orders accepted through the Platform.

The Partner must provide services:

• within agreed timelines
• with appropriate quality
• in accordance with legal requirements
• in accordance with standard professional practices.

1.7A Third-Party Services

If the Partner includes services provided by third parties (such as equipment rental, decoration, logistics or entertainment), the Partner remains fully responsible for the performance of such services.

Caterizi is not a party to agreements between the Partner and such third parties.

1.8 Handling Client Claims

The Partner bears full responsibility for handling Client complaints related to:

• service quality
• order fulfillment
• food safety
• delivery issues.

Caterizi may assist in communication but is not responsible for resolving such claims.

1.9 Personal Data of Clients

The Partner may use Client data only for the purpose of fulfilling the specific order.

Use of Client contact details for marketing outside the Platform without explicit consent is prohibited.

1.10 Prohibition of Platform Circumvention

The Partner may not use information obtained through the Platform to divert Clients away from the Platform in order to avoid paying the Commission.

This restriction applies to:

• the initial order
• any future orders with the same Client.

The restriction remains valid for 24 months after the first contact through the Platform.

1.11 Order Payment Structure

Orders placed through the Platform follow the following payment structure:

• 30% reservation deposit paid through the Platform
• 70% remaining balance paid directly to the Partner

The reservation deposit represents a booking deposit for the Partner’s services and confirms the reservation of the Partner for the requested event.

The reservation deposit does not constitute payment for services provided by Caterizi.

1.11.1 Deposit Payment Through the Platform

The reservation deposit is paid through the Platform using available payment methods.

Caterizi collects the reservation deposit on behalf of the Partner and for the benefit of the Partner.

From this deposit Caterizi automatically deducts the Platform Commission and applicable VAT specified in Section 2 of this Agreement.

The remaining part of the deposit (if any) is transferred to the Partner.

1.11.2 Remaining Payment to the Partner

The remaining balance is paid directly by the Client to the Partner using payment methods agreed between the Client and the Partner.

Caterizi does not collect, hold, or control the remaining payment and is not involved in the settlement of such payment.

The remaining payment represents payment directly for the services provided by the Partner to the Client.

1.12 Changes to Payment Methods

Caterizi may introduce additional payment methods available on the Platform.

However, unless explicitly agreed otherwise, the default payment structure remains:

30% deposit via Platform

70% direct payment to Partner.

1.13 Marketplace Payment Processing

The Partner authorizes Caterizi to collect reservation deposits from Clients through the Platform on behalf of the Partner.

Caterizi may use third-party payment processors such as Stripe to process such payments.

Collected funds are considered payments received for the benefit of the Partner.

2.1 Commission Amount

For the services provided under this Agreement, the Partner shall pay Caterizi remuneration in the form of a Platform Commission.

The Platform Commission is 15% of the total value of each order placed through the Platform, calculated based on the full price of the order agreed between the Partner and the Client, including any applicable taxes (such as VAT).

The Platform Commission is exclusive of VAT. Applicable VAT (currently 21% under Spanish law) shall be added to the Commission and shall be payable by the Partner in addition to the Commission amount.

The Commission is calculated from the full order value and is not calculated from the deposit amount and is not limited to the deposit value.

The Commission applies to every order introduced to the Partner through the Platform, regardless of the payment structure between the Client and the Partner.

Caterizi may collect the Commission and applicable VAT automatically through the Platform payment infrastructure, including by deducting such amounts from payments processed via the Platform.

2.2 Commission Deduction from Deposit

When the Client pays the reservation deposit through the Platform, Caterizi collects the deposit on behalf of the Partner.

From this deposit Caterizi automatically deducts the Commission amount due under this Agreement.

The remaining part of the deposit (if any) is transferred to the Partner.

If the Commission amount exceeds the deposit received, the Partner must pay the remaining part of the Commission to Caterizi in accordance with clause 2.6.

2.3 Order Registration

Caterizi maintains records of all orders placed through the Platform.

The Partner has access to order information through the Partner account or reports provided by Caterizi.

Order records maintained by the Platform shall be considered valid evidence of transactions between the parties unless proven otherwise.

2.4 Order Fulfillment Confirmation

After the execution of an order, Caterizi may request confirmation from the Partner that the order has been fulfilled.

The Partner must confirm or report any issues within 24 hours of receiving the request.

If the Partner does not respond within this period, the order shall be considered fulfilled and the Commission shall be deemed fully earned by Caterizi.

2.5 Service Delivery Report

At the end of each reporting period (normally a calendar month), Caterizi may prepare a Service Delivery Report containing:

• the list of orders transferred to the Partner
• the total value of such orders
• the Commission amounts.

The Report is sent electronically to the Partner.

If the Partner does not submit objections within 3 working days, the Report is considered accepted.

2.6 Commission for Orders Paid Directly to the Partner

If the Partner receives payment from a Client directly without the deposit being processed through the Platform, the Partner is still obligated to pay the Commission to Caterizi.

The Commission amount in such cases shall be 15% of the total order value.

The Partner must pay the Commission within 5 working days after receiving the invoice from Caterizi.

Failure to pay the Commission constitutes a material breach of this Agreement.

2.7 Settlement Currency

All financial settlements between the parties are carried out in euros (EUR) unless otherwise agreed in writing.

2.8 Offsetting and Deductions

Caterizi has the right to deduct any amounts owed by the Partner under this Agreement from funds payable to the Partner.

Such deductions may include:

• Commission
• penalties
• compensation for damages
• other amounts due under the Agreement.

2.9 VAT and Tax Responsibilities

The Partner is solely responsible for:

• calculating taxes related to its services
• declaring and paying VAT or other taxes
• issuing invoices to Clients.

The Partner issues invoices to Clients for the full value of the services provided.

Caterizi issues invoices only to the Partner for the Platform Commission.

Caterizi shall not be considered the supplier of the services provided by the Partner.

2.10 Payment Processors

Caterizi may use third-party payment processors (including Stripe or similar providers) to process reservation deposits.

Such payment processors act solely as technical payment service providers.

Payments processed through the Platform are collected by Caterizi on behalf of the Partner.

Payment processors process such payments for the benefit of the Partner, and such payments shall not be considered payments for services provided by Caterizi.

The use of payment processors does not change the contractual relationship between the Client and the Partner.

3.1 General Liability

The parties shall be liable for non-performance or improper performance of their obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and applicable law.

The party responsible for a breach must compensate the other party for documented losses directly caused by such breach.

Payment of penalties or compensation does not release the breaching party from the obligation to fulfill its contractual obligations where performance remains possible.

3.2 Liability of the Partner

The Partner bears full responsibility for:

• the quality and safety of the services provided to Clients
• compliance with applicable laws and regulations
• proper execution of orders
• actions of employees, subcontractors, couriers, drivers, or other representatives.

The Partner shall indemnify and hold Caterizi harmless from any claims, losses, damages, penalties, or legal proceedings brought by Clients or third parties arising from the services provided by the Partner.

3.3 Compensation of Platform Losses

If Caterizi incurs expenses or losses as a result of the Partner’s actions or omissions, the Partner must reimburse Caterizi for such losses.

Such losses may include but are not limited to:

• refunds issued to Clients
• compensation payments

• penalties imposed by authorities
• payment processing fees
• reputational damage caused by Partner violations.

Upon written request from Caterizi, the Partner must compensate the Platform within 5 working days from receipt of the request unless otherwise specified.

In case of violation of this Agreement by the Partner, Caterizi has the right to temporarily suspend the Partner’s access to the Platform.

Suspension may include:

• blocking the Partner account
• removal of Partner offers from the Platform

Suspension does not release the Partner from the obligation to fulfill already accepted orders.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Caterizi shall not be liable for:

• loss of profit
• loss of business opportunities
• reputational damage
• indirect or consequential damages.

Caterizi shall not be liable for the Partner’s obligations to Clients or third parties.

The maximum liability of Caterizi under this Agreement shall not exceed the total amount of Commission received by Caterizi from the Partner during the three (3) months preceding the claim.

3.6 Right of Set-Off

Caterizi has the right to offset any amounts owed by the Partner under this Agreement against funds payable to the Partner.

Such amounts may include:

• unpaid Commission
• penalties
• damages
• reimbursement of Client refunds.

3.7 Client Refunds

If Caterizi issues a refund or compensation to a Client due to the Partner’s failure to properly fulfill an order, the Partner must reimburse Caterizi for the full amount of such refund.

Caterizi may deduct such amounts from funds payable to the Partner or request payment from the Partner directly.

3.8 Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement if such failure results from force majeure circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the parties.

Force majeure events may include:

• natural disasters
• war or armed conflict
• government restrictions
• pandemics or public health emergencies
• large-scale technical failures.

The affected party must notify the other party as soon as reasonably possible.

If force majeure continues for more than 60 days, either party may terminate the Agreement.

4.1 Term of the Agreement

This Agreement enters into force upon acceptance by the Partner and remains valid for a period of one (1) year.

4.2 Termination by Caterizi

Caterizi may terminate this Agreement unilaterally at any time by providing the Partner with 14 days’ written notice.

Such notice shall be sent to the Partner’s registered email address.

Upon termination:

The Partner may terminate this Agreement by providing Caterizi with 30 days’ written notice.

During the notice period the Partner must:

• continue fulfilling all accepted orders
• comply with the obligations of this Agreement
• settle all outstanding financial obligations.

4.4 Unjustified Refusal to Perform the Agreement

If the Partner stops performing its obligations under this Agreement without valid legal grounds or without providing the required notice, such conduct shall be considered an Unjustified Refusal.

Unjustified Refusal includes but is not limited to:

• refusing to accept or fulfill orders without legitimate reason
• systematically canceling confirmed orders
• refusing to pay Commission due under this Agreement
• stopping cooperation with Caterizi while continuing to serve Clients introduced through the Platform.

4.5 Compensation for Unjustified Refusal

The Partner acknowledges that Unjustified Refusal may cause significant financial and reputational damage to Caterizi.

Therefore, in case of Unjustified Refusal, the Partner shall pay Caterizi compensation for damages calculated as:

the total value of orders transferred by Caterizi to the Partner during the calendar month preceding the violation.

The parties agree that this amount represents a reasonable and proportionate estimate of the damages that Caterizi may suffer as a result of such conduct.

Payment of this compensation does not release the Partner from fulfilling other obligations under this Agreement.

4.6 Completion of Existing Orders
