4. Description of Services
DealBite is an online marketplace that connects consumers with local restaurants and food merchants offering promotional deals and discounts. ALTOP IT SOLUTIONS INC. acts solely as an intermediary platform and is not a party to any transaction between Users and merchants.
We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or availability of any deal listed on the Platform. Deals are created and managed by independent merchants.
5. User Accounts & Registration
To access certain features, you may be required to register for an account. You agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration
- Maintain and promptly update your account information
- Keep your login credentials confidential
- Accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account

6. Merchant Terms
Merchants who list deals on DealBite agree to:
- Provide accurate deal information, including pricing, expiry dates, and conditions.
- Honour all published deals to customers who present valid clipped deal confirmations. Once a deal is published to the DealBite platform, merchants are obligated to honour it for the duration of the deal's active period. Failure to honour published deals may result in account suspension.
- Comply with all applicable federal, Ontario provincial, and municipal business licensing requirements.
- Comply with the Food Premises Regulation (O. Reg. 493/17) and applicable health codes.
- Not engage in deceptive pricing or misleading advertising contrary to the Competition Act (R.S.C., 1985, c. C-34).
- Pay applicable subscription fees as outlined in the selected plan.
- 30-Day Billing Cycle: All paid merchant subscriptions operate on a 30-day billing cycle commencing on the date of sign-up. Invoices are issued on the day of sign-up and subsequently on every 30th day thereafter. By subscribing to a paid plan, merchants acknowledge and agree that they are obligated to the 30-day billing cycle and that charges will recur automatically every 30 days unless the subscription is cancelled prior to the next billing date. Merchants are responsible for ensuring their payment method remains valid throughout the subscription term.
- Understand that account cancellation takes effect at the end of the merchant's current 30-day subscription cycle — the subscription and active deals remain live until that date, after which access is revoked. No pro-rated refunds will be issued for any remaining portion of the current billing cycle.
ALTOP IT SOLUTIONS INC. reserves the right to remove any deal or suspend any merchant account at its sole discretion.
