Vendor Agreement

Commercial terms between Yuunri and registered vendors

Last updated: May 2026

This Vendor Agreement forms part of the contractual relationship between YUUNRI Afroshopping (haftungsbeschränkt) (“YUUNRI”) and the Vendor.

1.0. Platform Services

YUUNRI provides a digital marketplace including:

  • product listing infrastructure,
  • order management tools,
  • payment facilitation via Stripe,
  • delivery coordination support.

YUUNRI is not a logistics carrier, delivery provider, restaurant operator, food manufacturer, reseller, or owner of Vendor products.

YUUNRI operates solely as a digital intermediary marketplace platform facilitating connections between customers, Vendors, and independent third-party delivery providers.

Delivery services are performed exclusively by independent third-party logistics and delivery providers, including providers integrated via API connections (such as Uber, Bolt, Wolt, Sendcloud, and similar delivery partners), who remain solely responsible for:

  • delivery execution,
  • transportation services,
  • delivery timing,
  • delivery failures,
  • delivery-related damages,
  • proof of delivery,
  • and all transportation-related obligations and liabilities.

Delivery fees and shipping costs are borne by the customer unless otherwise specified at checkout.

YUUNRI solely facilitates delivery coordination and technology integration and shall not be deemed a transport operator, courier service, or delivery contractor.

1.1. Vendor Registration, Onboarding and Acceptance

In order to access and use the YUUNRI marketplace platform as a Vendor, the Vendor must complete the onboarding and registration process prescribed by YUUNRI.

As part of the registration process, the Vendor shall provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date business and compliance information, including where applicable:

  • registered business name,
  • legal form and registration number,
  • VAT identification number,
  • business address,
  • contact information,
  • bank account details for payouts,
  • identification documents of the legally responsible representative or authorized signatory,
  • licenses, permits, certifications, or food/business authorizations required under applicable law,
  • and any additional documentation reasonably requested by YUUNRI for compliance, verification, fraud prevention, KYC, AML, operational, or regulatory purposes.

The Vendor shall upload the required documentation electronically through the YUUNRI onboarding process and guarantees that all submitted information and documentation are authentic, accurate, valid, and not misleading.

YUUNRI reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to:

  • review and verify submitted information,
  • request additional documentation,
  • conduct identity and compliance checks,
  • approve or reject Vendor applications,
  • suspend onboarding,
  • or refuse access to the platform without obligation to provide justification.

Access to the Vendor Dashboard and marketplace functionality shall only be granted upon approval by YUUNRI.

The Vendor is responsible for maintaining accurate and updated registration information at all times and shall promptly notify YUUNRI of any material changes relating to:

  • ownership,
  • legal status,
  • bank account information,
  • licenses,
  • regulatory status,
  • or business operations.

Acceptance of this Vendor Agreement, the Refund Policy, Platform Policies, Privacy Policy, and related operational guidelines through electronic confirmation, including by ticking the acceptance checkbox during the onboarding or registration process, shall constitute:

  • valid legal acceptance,
  • legally binding consent,
  • and enforceable electronic execution of this Agreement,

with the same legal effect as a handwritten or physically signed agreement under applicable law.

The Vendor shall be solely responsible for managing and administering its shop through the Vendor Dashboard, including but not limited to:

  • product listings,
  • product descriptions,
  • pricing,
  • VAT settings,
  • product availability,
  • inventory management,
  • promotional offers,
  • operating hours,
  • customer communications,
  • order preparation status,
  • and all other shop-related configurations and marketplace activities made available through the platform.

The Vendor is responsible for ensuring that all information published through its shop is accurate, lawful, current, and not misleading.

YUUNRI shall not be responsible for errors, losses, disputes, pricing inaccuracies, unavailable inventory, or operational issues resulting from Vendor-managed dashboard settings, configurations, or content.

2.0. Platform Service Fee

YUUNRI applies a marketplace service fee equal to 10% of the Vendor’s listed sales price.

The Vendor’s listed price shall constitute the Vendor’s net receivable amount (inclusive of any applicable VAT owed by the Vendor).

The marketplace service fee is added on top of the Vendor’s listed price and charged to the customer at checkout as part of the final marketplace price.

Accordingly:

  • the Vendor receives the listed product price submitted through the platform,
  • while YUUNRI retains the separately added marketplace service fee.

YUUNRI reserves the right to display the final customer-facing price inclusive of:

  • marketplace fees,
  • delivery fees,
  • taxes,
  • and other applicable charges.

Applicable VAT on YUUNRI marketplace service fees shall be added where legally required.

3.0. Delivery and Shipping Costs

Vendors are required to respond promptly to shipping and delivery requests and to comply with the applicable Service Level Obligations (SLA) response times defined under this Agreement.

Vendors shall ensure that all orders are:

  • properly prepared,
  • securely packaged,
  • suitable for transportation,
  • compliant with applicable hygiene and safety standards,
  • and ready for pickup within the required preparation timeframe.

All customer-facing packaging must display the YUUNRI branding and/or logo in accordance with the packaging and branding guidelines communicated by YUUNRI from time to time.

The Vendor remains solely responsible for:

  • product packaging quality,
  • packaging compliance,
  • order readiness,
  • and any damages, losses, or delivery issues resulting from inadequate preparation or packaging.

If:

  • a Vendor fails to confirm or act on a shipping or delivery request within the required SLA timeframe, and/or
  • the Vendor fails to prepare the order for pickup within the required timeframe, and
  • such failure results in increased delivery costs, failed delivery attempts, cancellation fees, courier waiting charges, or rebooking costs,

then:

  • the additional delivery-related cost shall be borne by the Vendor, and
  • the corresponding amount may be automatically deducted from the Vendor’s payout or reserve balance.

Vendors shall comply with all packaging, branding, sustainability, and operational guidelines communicated by YUUNRI from time to time.

3.2. Delivery Cost Adjustments Due to Vendor Delay

Where a Vendor’s failure to respond within the defined SLA response times results in:
