  • take all necessary security measures to protect their login data;
  • inform Domuse immediately in the event of loss, theft or fraudulent use.

Domuse cannot be held liable for the consequences resulting from negligence or failure by the User to comply with their security obligations.

In the event of suspected fraudulent use, Domuse reserves the right to temporarily suspend access to the Account while carrying out the necessary verifications.

5. Booking Procedures

5.1. Standard Search

The Client may search for a Provider by browsing available profiles in their service area via the Domuse Application. Profiles display in particular:

  • rates offered per service,
  • service area,
  • declared availability,
  • ratings left by previous Clients.

The Client sends a booking request to the chosen Provider. The booking is only confirmed upon express acceptance by the Provider via the Domuse Pro Application.

5.2. Urgent Request

The Client may create an Urgent Request directly from the Domuse Application. To do so, they must:

  • select the relevant Service category (cleaning, handyman, plumbing, locksmithing, electrical);
  • specify their need (e.g.: change a tap, unclog a sink);
  • indicate the intervention address;
  • describe the details of the emergency and, where applicable, add a photo to illustrate the situation.

Once validated, the Urgent Request is transmitted in real time to active Providers in the service area. Providers can submit a price offer via the Domuse Pro Application.

The Client remains free to accept or decline any offer received. Confirmation of an offer constitutes a firm booking of the Service.

5.3. On-Site Price Adjustment

If, upon arrival at the service location, the Provider finds that the nature, duration or complexity of the intervention differs from the description initially provided by the Client, they may propose a price adjustment for the Service.

If accepted by the Client, the adjusted price becomes the final price of the Service, which will be invoiced and paid according to the usual payment methods via the Platform.

If refused by the Client, the Service is cancelled and the Client remains liable for the Provider's travel fees, the amount of which is displayed on the Platform before the intervention.

These travel fees are subject to Domuse's service commission, set at:

  • 12% for Providers with a standard account (Essential subscription);
  • 6% for Providers subscribed to the Premium plan.

For example, for travel fees of 50 euros, the Provider will receive a net amount of:

  • 44 euros under the standard subscription (after deduction of 12%);
  • 47 euros under the Premium subscription (after deduction of 6%).

The Provider is prohibited from directly receiving any payment outside the Platform. All payments must be made through the payment tools set up by Domuse.

5.4. Verification Code

To validate the successful completion of a Service, the Client must provide the Provider, at the end of the intervention, with a unique verification code generated by the Domuse Application. Communication of this code constitutes confirmation of the completion of the Service and triggers the corresponding invoicing.

The Client undertakes to communicate this code only after the full completion of the Service. In the event of premature or fraudulent communication of the code, Domuse cannot be held liable and the Client alone shall bear the possible consequences.

6. Financial Terms

6.1. Subscriptions and Service Fees

Domuse offers two distinct plans for Providers:

  • Essential: 0 euros/month + 12% service fee deducted from the amount of each completed Service;
  • Premium: 19.99 euros/month + 6% service fee deducted from the amount of each completed Service.

The Client pays the price of the Service, as indicated, in the Application exclusively by credit card. The Provider receives their net remuneration, after deduction of Domuse's service fees only.

6.2. Payment Terms

The price of Services is subject to a bank pre-authorization before the start of the Service and is charged to the Client within twenty-four (24) hours of its completion. The corresponding amounts are transferred to the Provider on a daily basis by default. An additional period of two (2) to three (3) business days may be necessary for the transfer of funds.

For the management of financial flows, Domuse uses Stripe, a payment service provider, which offers a solution for managing payment flows between Domuse, Providers and Clients.

The payment services provided by Stripe on the Platform are subject to the Terms of Use of the "Stripe Connect" product, accessible at the following address: https://stripe.com/fr/legal/connect-account.

Opening and using a Stripe Connect account are essential for receiving payments for Services performed via Domuse. By accepting these T&Cs, the Provider also acknowledges and accepts the Stripe Connect Terms of Use, which constitute a separate contract concluded directly between the Provider and Stripe.

Domuse is not a party to this contract and cannot be held liable for any malfunction, payment refusal or any other dispute related to the services operated by Stripe.

The Client acknowledges that payment for Services is made through the payment service provider Stripe and authorizes Domuse to transmit to Stripe the information necessary for processing their payment.

6.3. Invoicing

An invoice is automatically generated for each Service performed and validated by the verification code.

Domuse provides an automated invoicing service enabling the issuance, on behalf of the Provider, of invoices intended for Clients relating to Services performed.

The Provider remains solely responsible for the accuracy, compliance and validity of the information transmitted, as well as all their tax, social and accounting obligations relating to the Services performed, including, where applicable, the collection and remittance of VAT.

Furthermore, Domuse issues invoices in its own name to Providers for:

  • service fees applicable to transactions carried out via the Platform,
  • and, where applicable, paid subscriptions, in particular the Premium subscription taken out by the Provider.

These invoices are issued electronically and made available to the Provider within their personal Domuse Pro space. Their issuance constitutes acknowledgment by the Provider of the validity of the corresponding debt in favor of Domuse.

6.4. Invoicing Mandate

The Provider expressly mandates Domuse, which accepts, to issue on their behalf the invoices relating to Services booked and paid for through the Platform.

It is specified that this invoicing mandate is limited to Services performed via Domuse. The Provider remains responsible for all their tax, social and accounting obligations, including the declaration and payment of VAT, where applicable.

The invoicing mandate takes effect upon acceptance of these T&Cs and remains valid as long as the Provider has an active Account. Each party retains a copy of the invoices issued.

For the execution of the mandate, the Provider provides Domuse with the following information:

  • First name and last name / or company name,
  • Postal address / or registered office,
  • SIRET number / or trade register number,
  • Email address,
  • Copy of a valid identity document (front/back),
  • Profile photograph,
  • Bank details,

The Provider undertakes: (i) to pay the value added tax owed to the Treasury; (ii) to consult and archive the invoices issued on their behalf by Domuse; (iii) to notify Domuse without delay of any change in the information provided; (iv) to assume all liability in the event of failure to comply with their legal and tax obligations.
