Payout to the Driver

At this point, the Driver must have a valid Payout Method set in their OWTO account. The Driver may choose to receive Payouts using one Payout Method:

- After a Payout has been sent to a Driver, there are additional Processing Times for the Payout to reach the Driver’s preferred Payout account, depending on the selected Payout Method.

Offline In-cabin A&V recording
- OWTO is very concerned with safeguarding your trip and because of such; we have designed a security feature that will capture both a video (if lighting is enough) and an audio recording from the partners’ mobile phone every time a trip is ongoing.

- You as a partner and/or a rider agrees and gives your consent to be recorded through the video and audio collected via the device of the partner.
- The OWTO feature’s recorded files will only be used as a complaint reference incase a partner or a rider files for one.
- The recording will be saved inside the partner’s device in a maximum of 2 days (48 hours). It will follow a specific set of procedure so the partners won’t be able to access the files. Every file will be compressed, encrypted and saved on a specific directory on the partner’s device.
- As a partner, you agree that the application will access and create a folder inside your mobile phone where the recordings will be saved.
- As a partner, you agree that whenever you’re mobile phone is connected to the internet and an upload request is sent through the app because of a complaint initiated either by you or one of your riders, the app through your profile will upload the requested file to our system.
- As a partner, you also agree that any attempt, successful or unsuccessful, to access the recordings for any personal intents is a valid ground for your partner account to be PERMANENTLY DEACTIVATED.
-
In the event that the partner’s device doesn’t upload the requested file within 24 hours (Granted that the complaint is within the 48 hour window), depending on the gravity of the complaint of the rider, the partner’s profile is subject to one of the following after a careful review:
- Flagged and will be given a warning

Silent Distress Signal (SOS Feature)
- The feature is designed to be activated through 2 means. The SOS button on the app and the paired clicker that will be sold by the company.

- While the in-cabin recording feature is ongoing and an unfortunate incident happens that threatens either the partner’s or the rider’s safety, either one of them can trigger this feature through the said means above.
- The app will then send a notification to OWTO’s command center and the in-cabin recording switches to livestream for the command center personnel to access real-time. The vehicle’s location will be sent to the command center’s system as well.
- If the signal is deemed valid, security measures will be taken to assure the safety of the party who triggered the signal.
