  • Any onboarding check, profile review, badge, trust signal, or platform standard used by SOME BAKERS is for internal platform and community purposes only and does not amount to inspection, certification, or approval of you or your products.

  • products with false, misleading, unsubstantiated, health, medicinal, or therapeutic claims;
  • products that require handling or controls you cannot lawfully or safely provide; or

SOME BAKERS may remove, reject, or restrict any listing or product category at any time for legal, safety, quality, reputational, operational, or policy reasons.

Stock photos, misleading edited photos, and images of products you did not make must not be used to represent your listings.

  • communicating clearly with customers where needed;
  • providing accurate collection or delivery details;
  • handling your products safely until handover; and

Repeated cancellations, ghosting, late fulfilment, inaccurate listings, or customer complaints may result in warnings, listing restrictions, payout holds, or account suspension.

8. Collection, Delivery & Safety

  • Unless expressly stated otherwise, you are responsible for arranging and managing any collection or delivery option that you offer.
  • If you offer self-collection, you must only share the exact collection details when reasonably necessary for fulfilment, after an order is confirmed.
  • If you offer self-delivery or use a third-party courier, you remain responsible for product handling, packaging, timing, and food condition up to handover.

9. Payments, Payouts, Holds & Recovery

  • The platform may support one or more payment models, including direct payment to you or platform-enabled payment processing through a third-party payment service provider.

Where platform-enabled payments are used:

  • you may be required to complete identity verification, fraud checks, tax checks, and other compliance steps;
  • payout timing may vary based on processor timelines, weekends, holidays, reviews, reserves, disputes, or restrictions; and
  • SOME BAKERS may hold, delay, reserve, deduct, offset, or recover amounts otherwise payable to you where reasonably necessary in connection with chargebacks, refunds, customer complaints, food safety concerns, fraud, failed fulfilment, legal compliance, or breach of these Terms.

If a customer payment is reversed, refunded, charged back, or otherwise clawed back in connection with one of your orders, you remain economically responsible for that order and authorise SOME BAKERS to recover the relevant amount from your current or future payouts or otherwise seek repayment.

  • Customers may raise complaints in relation to your orders. You must cooperate promptly and in good faith with any reasonable information request made by SOME BAKERS in connection with a complaint or dispute.
  • SOME BAKERS may, but is not obliged to, facilitate communication, request evidence, propose outcomes, temporarily hold funds, or take other reasonable platform actions in connection with a complaint or dispute.
  • Where SOME BAKERS reasonably determines that an order involves non-fulfilment, material misdescription, product safety risk, fraud, duplicate payment, or another significant fairness or safety issue, SOME BAKERS may facilitate or direct a full or partial refund, replacement, order cancellation, credit, or other reasonable remedy.
  • Any such amount may be deducted from your current or future payouts or otherwise recovered from you.

11. Food Safety Incidents & Recall Cooperation

You must immediately notify SOME BAKERS if you become aware of:

  • any complaint alleging illness, allergic reaction, contamination, spoilage, foreign matter, or unsafe food;
  • any incorrect or incomplete allergen or ingredient disclosure;
  • any regulator enquiry, warning, advisory, stop order, or recall relating to you or your products; or
  • any circumstance that may reasonably affect customer safety or the integrity of the platform.

12. Trust Signals & Profile Claims

You must not describe yourself, your kitchen, your products, or any platform badge as licensed, certified, inspected, approved, guaranteed, or verified by SOME BAKERS unless such status has been expressly granted in writing and your wording is exactly consistent with the scope of that status.

You must not misuse trust labels or imply a level of review, testing, or approval that does not exist.

13. Off-Platform Circumvention

14. Content and Intellectual Property

  • You retain ownership of content you lawfully create and upload to the platform, including your photographs, branding, descriptions, and profile materials.

  • prohibited or unsafe products;
  • repeated cancellations or fulfilment failures;
  • suspicious activity or fraud;
  • non-cooperation with safety, dispute, or verification requests; or
