Welcome to www.netmeds. com ("Netmeds.com", "Netmeds", "Website", "Pharmacy", or "we"). This Website/App is managed and operated by Reliance Retail Limited whose registered office is in Mumbai, India.
Reliance Retail Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of India, having its registered address at 3rd Floor, Court House, Lokmanya Tilak Marg, Dhobi Talao, Mumbai – 400002 (“Reliance”, “we”, “us” or “our”), manages and operates an online marketplace at www.netmeds.com and a mobile application under the brand name Netmeds (collectively referred to as the “Platform”) which facilitates different vendors to sell their Products and/or Services and enabling different buyers to purchase the Products and/or Services offered by the vendors to the users of the Platform (“User” or “Users” or “you”).
WHAT ARE THE FEES AND PAYMENTS POLICY?
This Fees and Payments Policy (“FPP Policy”), together with the Terms and Conditions [accessible at https://www.netmeds.com/terms-and-conditions] describes Reliance’s accepted payment methods, and Reliance’s policies and procedures in relation to acceptance of fees and payments towards the services offered through the Platform. Reliance’s primary object is to ensure that the Platform is user friendly and equipped with reasonably expected security infrastructure to protect any financial information which may be shared by User.
User(s) are required to peruse and understand the terms of this FPP Policy. If you do not agree to the terms contained in this FPP Policy, you are advised not to accept the Terms of Use and this FPP Policy and may forthwith leave and stop using the Platform. The terms contained in this FPP Policy shall be accepted without modification and also, by using, browsing, accessing, or purchasing on the Platform, you agree to be bound by the terms contained herein.
FEES AND PAYMENT OPTIONS
1. Reliance does not levy any fee for browsing the Platform. Reliance may in future, consider levying fees on the User for using the Platform as a whole, or for use of certain features of the Platform. In such an event, you agree to pay any such fees, as applicable. Reliance does not covenant or guarantee providing you with a notice prior to enforcing such a levy of fees. Your continued usage of the Platform after such change in the fees will be considered to be your acceptance of such changes.
2. In order to ensure User convenience, Reliance offers multiple payment options to User. Reliance without prior notice to User, reserves the right to add or delete payment options from the ones listed below:
.payment through net banking facilities;
. payment through select credit cards;
.payment through select debit cards;
. payment through store credit;
.payments through cash on delivery;
. payments through prepaid payment instruments and electronic
wallets;
Any other payment option as may be provided by Reliance from time to
time. The payment options referred to above shall hereinafter
collectively be referred to as “Payment Options”. While reasonable
endeavours are made to offer the Payment Options through varied
banking channels, presently, Reliance accepts payments only from
major select banking avenues. Reliance does not accept payments made
through international debit/credit cards.
3. It is expressly clarified that accepting a User’s payment through the Payment Options is solely at Reliance’s discretion. Reliance reserves the right to reject payment from a User through the Payment Options for any reason whatsoever. In order to further validate a User’s transaction, Reliance may request the User to submit a copy of the User’s photo identity proof (such as the User’s PAN card), failing which, Reliance reserves the right to reject a User’s payment made through the Payment Options.
4. While using the Payment Options, User agrees to provide correct, complete and accurate financial information such as credit/debit card details or prepaid payment instrument account details which may be stored by Reliance’s third party payment gateway provider. User(s) shall not use a credit/debit card or prepaid instrument which is not lawfully owned by him/her or which the User has not been lawfully authorised to use. The User shall solely be responsible for the security and confidentiality of his/her financial information. Reliance disclaims all liabilities that may arise as a consequence of any unauthorised use of the User’s financial information and/or identity, including, details relating the Payment Options.
5. Reliance shall not be held responsible and shall not assume any
liability in respect of any loss or damage suffered by a User owing
to:
.lack of authorisation for any transaction, including such
transactions carried out on gift cards and vouchers issued to
User(s) as a part of Reliance’s promotions.
.exceeding of the credit/debit limit mutually agreed between the
User and the issuing bank.
. any payment issue arising out of technical glitches occurring
during a transaction.
.Transactions being declined for reasons beyond Reliance’s control
6. Reliance reserves the right to impose limits on the number of transactions a User may undertake over the Platform. Should the User exceed such transaction limits imposed by Reliance, Reliance reserves the right to refuse to process such transactions. Reliance may refuse to process transactions emanating from User(s) who have suspicious or questionable transaction history on the Platform. Should Reliance be dissatisfied with the credibility of a User or the genuineness of a transaction carried out on the Platform, Reliance shall have the right to reject such transactions. Reliance may also choose to delay the dispatch of Products purchased by such User or cancel the entire purchase at its sole discretion. The User agrees that Reliance shall not be liable for any damage, interests or claims resulting from Reliance’s decision to not process a transaction or delay in the processing of a transaction on account of a User’s suspicious activity on the Platform.
7. All the Products listed on the Platform are inclusive of all applicable taxes. You will be responsible for payment of all fees/costs/charges associated with the purchase of Products from us and you agree to bear any and all applicable taxes including but not limited to VAT/CST, service tax, GST, duties and cesses etc. Despite Reliance’s best efforts, there may be instances of mispricing of Products on the Platform during or after the process of purchase of Products has been carried out by the User. While thorough processes of verification is carried out prior to the publication of Product prices on the Platform, errors and discrepancies arising out of technical glitches and time lags are unavoidable. For avoidance of doubt, Reliance’s curative actions that will arise in the event of a price difference arising on the actual maximum retail price of a Products against the price published on the Platform is set out below:
8. To enable User to make payments for purchasing Products on the Platform, in addition to this FPP Policy, the terms and conditions of the User’s bank, applicable financial institution and/or card issuing association may be applicable. The User’s bank, financial institution or card issuing association may decline or prevent the User from making electronic payments for buying the Products on the Platform and Reliance does not control the same and hence, shall not be at any point in time be held liable.
9. Reliance may, from time to time contract with third party payment service providers including banks, to open nodal bank accounts under applicable Indian laws. This will be done to facilitate the payments between User(s) and other third parties, apart from Reliance. These third parties may include other service providers including payment aggregators, prepaid instrument providers, courier and logistic service providers etc. Upon successful delivery of the products purchased by you through the Platform, Reliance shall initiate payments to third party service providers.
10. If it is brought to the User’s notice that a charge has been created on his/her payment instrument(s) for purchase of Products on the Platform and the User is not aware of such purchase on the Platform, the User is first, required to verify if his/her family members, friends or business colleagues were authorised to carry out the purchase of Products on the Platform. If, despite this, the User continues to be unable to identify the charge created on his/her payment instrument(s) for purchase of Products on the Platform, the User may report such unauthorised purchase to us within 2 (two) days from the date on which the unauthorised purchase was carried out on the Platform in order to enable Reliance initiate investigations.
11. If the User carries out a purchase on the Platform and the payment in lieu thereof has been invalidated, Reliance reserves the right to retrieve the invalidated payment (“Invalidated Payment”) from the User’s store credit. Should the User have insufficient store credit in order to facilitate such redemption of the invalidated payment, the User shall within 2 (two) to 4 (four) working days from the date of receiving a written notice from Reliance, remit the Invalidated Payment into Reliance’s bank account, details of which shall be set out in the notice. If the User fails to remit the Invalidated Payment into Reliance’s bank account despite having received the notice, Reliance shall be entitled to initiate civil and/or criminal legal action against the defaulting User at his/her cost and peril.
12. The ‘cash on delivery’ payment option allows Users to make a cash-only payment to our delivery executive or logistic partner at the time of delivery of the purchased Products to the User. Presently, we offer a maximum order value of INR 10,000 (Indian Rupees Ten Thousand) under the cash on delivery payment option. Reliance reserves the right not to provide the option of cash on delivery payment for certain Products (these could be Products specified by Reliance or Products with value exceeding a specified amount) or locations. User(s) are required to peruse and accept the terms set out under the Return Refund and Cancellation Policy which sets out the terms of refunds for transactions carried out using the cash on delivery payment option.
13. Store Credit: If a User cancels an order for which payment has already been made to Reliance, the User shall have an option to convert the amount paid towards the order into store credit. In addition, any and all refunds with respect to Products purchased through the ‘cash on delivery’ payment option will be transferred as store credit into the User’s store credit account and in the event of the User expressing his/her intention to deactivate his/her account then such unused Store Credit will be transferred to the source account. Reliance may at its sole discretion, grant store credit to users. The store credits can be used by the user for future purchases only on the Platform. In the eventuality of a User wishing to deactivate his/her account with Reliance, the User agrees that all store credit granted by Reliance available on the User’s store credit account, if any, will automatically stand forfeited, and Reliance will not be required to process any refunds in any manner whatsoever. The User therefore agrees to use and exhaust any existing store credit prior to requesting for a deactivation of his/her account on the Platform. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any refund of store credit to the User will be at the sole discretion of Reliance. If Reliance suspects any fraudulent activities, Reliance reserves its right to hold back transfer of any store credits to User.
