Taking communications or payments off-platform may result in account suspension and leaves both parties without the platform's consumer protections, dispute resolution, and the Happiness Pledge safety net.
Taskrabbit's terms significantly limit consumers' legal options by requiring US and Canadian users to resolve disputes through binding individual arbitration, waiving the right to class action lawsuits. Taskrabbit disclaims virtually all liability for task quality, safety, and the conduct of Taskers, placing the burden of vetting service providers entirely on Clients. You can opt out of the arbitration agreement by sending written notice to Taskrabbit within 30 days of first accepting these Terms.
