Terms of Service

Last updated: 24 August 2026

This page is maintained by Aovigo to explain plainly how the service works. It is a starting draft you should have reviewed by a lawyer.

1. About Aovigo

Aovigo is a travel marketplace: scheduled road trips from independent drivers and transport businesses, rental cars, stays and bundled packages. Aovigo does not operate vehicles, does not rent out properties and is not a carrier — operators and hosts are responsible for what they offer.

2. Your account

You must be 18 or older and provide accurate information. You are responsible for keeping your password secure and for activity on your account.

One Aovigo account is enough: you can apply from your profile to become a driver, host or business. Those roles are reviewed by our team before they are activated.

3. Bookings and payments

A booking is confirmed when payment is accepted and a ticket or confirmation is issued. Trips are priced per seat, cars per day, stays per night, and packages as a bundle.

A 1% Aovigo service fee is added to what the buyer pays. Drivers and hosts pay no Aovigo commission.

Card payments are processed by our payment provider. Mobile money methods may be subject to the operator's own terms.

4. Cancellations and refunds

Trips: full refund up to 24 hours before departure, 50% up to 2 hours before, unless the trip page states otherwise.

Cars, stays and packages: the cancellation policy chosen by the host (flexible, moderate or strict) is shown on each listing before payment and applies to your booking.

If a driver or host cancels, you are refunded in full, including the service fee.

5. Drivers, hosts and businesses

Operators and hosts must submit identity and, depending on the activity, licence or registration, insurance and real photos. Account verification happens once; each additional car or stay is then reviewed on its own before it goes live.

You must have the right to offer the vehicle or property you list, describe amenities honestly, and honour the bookings you accept.

A valid payout method must be saved before you can publish. Payouts are released after the trip or stay, on the schedule shown in your dashboard.

6. Conduct, stays and messaging

Be on time at the meeting point, respect trip or house rules and the people around you. Damage may be charged by the host.

In-app messaging is for arranging a booking. Harassment, fraud, illegal content and attempts to move payment off the platform are prohibited and can lead to account suspension.

7. Rewards programme

Aovigo points and tiers are earned on paid bookings and have no cash value. They may be adjusted or removed when a booking is cancelled or refunded, or in case of abuse.

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Aovigo is not liable for delays, loss or damage arising from the trip, rental or stay itself. Your primary recourse is with the operator or host.

9. Changes and contact

These terms may change; the update date above applies. See also our privacy policy. Questions: support@aovigo.com.
