Terms of use
Last updated: 4 November 2026
These terms explain how you may use GroupParticipate as a host or a participant.
Using the service
You need a Google account to host or register. Keep your account secure and give accurate names for yourself and your guests.
Hosts
Hosts are responsible for their events: the description, location, safety, any terms they ask participants to accept, and the costs they share afterwards. Hosts must only collect money for real event costs.
Participants
By registering you agree to the host’s event terms. Turn up on time, or cancel your place so someone on the waiting list can have it.
Payments
Deposits are taken by card through Stripe and paid out to the host. Refunds follow our refund policy. Costs shared after an event are paid directly to the host.
Acceptable use
Don’t use the service for unlawful events, to harass others or to collect money under false pretences. We may remove events or accounts that break these terms.
Liability
GroupParticipate provides the booking tools only. Events are organised and run by hosts, not by us.
