Customer Terms
Last updated: 6 June 2026 · Applies to Fletcha Eats, operating in South Africa.
These terms apply when you place an order on Fletcha Eats, either as a food order from a registered business or as a Personal Shopper request (where you ask a driver to shop on your behalf). They are additional to the main Terms & Conditions.
1. How a food order works
- Pick an approved business from Home, Search, Categories or Nearby Businesses.
- Add items to your cart and tap Checkout.
- Confirm your delivery address (one-tap GPS or saved location).
- Choose a payment method the business accepts (e.g. Cash, EFT, Capitec Pay, Yoco).
- If you pay before pickup, upload your proof of payment in the order screen.
- The business verifies payment and marks the order Ready for Pickup.
- A nearby online driver accepts the delivery and collects it.
- The driver hands it to you at your GPS pin and you confirm with your delivery code.
2. How a Personal Shopper request works
- Tell the driver what you need (the store, the items, an estimated budget).
- The driver shops at the store you choose. They pay first; you pay them back on delivery (plus the agreed shopping fee).
- Items, prices and stock are determined by the store — the driver cannot guarantee availability.
- Always send a clear list to avoid confusion.
See the Personal Shopper Disclaimer for important detail about store affiliations.
3. Delivery fees
- Delivery fees are calculated automatically from the distance between the business's GPS location and your delivery GPS location.
- The fee is shown before you place the order. By tapping Place Order you accept the fee.
- Once an order is placed, the delivery fee is locked and cannot change.
4. Grocery / Personal Shopper fees
- You pay: the cost of the items + the delivery fee + a shopping fee agreed with the driver.
- The driver will share the till slip or a photo of the receipt.
- If an item is unavailable, the driver will message you for a replacement decision.
5. Payment
You can pay using any method the business has enabled, typically:
- Cash on delivery — pay the driver the exact amount on hand-over.
- EFT / Bank transfer — use the bank details shown in the order.
- Capitec Pay — pay to the business's Capitec number.
- Yoco link — pay via the secure card link the business provides.
6. Proof of payment
- When paying by EFT, Capitec Pay or any non-cash method, upload a clear screenshot of the successful payment in the order screen.
- The proof must show: amount, recipient name and date.
- Fake proofs are fraud. They will result in immediate account suspension and may be reported to the South African Police Service.
7. What to expect during delivery
- You can watch the driver on the live map.
- Be reachable on the phone number you registered with.
- Give the driver your delivery code at hand-over. Without it, the driver cannot mark the order delivered.
- If the driver is far from your pin or your GPS is wrong, message them in the order chat.
8. Refunds and disputes
- Missing item, wrong item, or item damaged in transit — open the order, tap Dispute, attach a photo, and submit within 24 hours of delivery.
- Failed delivery — if the driver cancels after collecting your order or you cannot reach them, contact Support immediately.
- Full process and timeframes are in the Refund & Dispute Policy.
9. Cancellations
- You may cancel any time before the business verifies your payment, free of charge.
- Once the order is being prepared or a driver has been assigned, cancellations may not be refundable for goods already prepared or shopped.
- Excessive cancellations lower your trust score and may suspend your account.
