The terms and conditions under which you may loan products from Kia Australia are set out below. Please read these Terms & Conditions carefully before placing an order with eQuipt Pty Ltd.

By completing the customer application process and/or placing an order via kialoantools.online, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions.

1. The Agreement

1.1 The entire agreement between the customer (“you”) and eQuipt Pty Ltd (“eQuipt”) for the loan of goods consists of:

(a) these Terms & Conditions; and

(b) the terms of each accepted order.

1.2 A binding agreement is formed once eQuipt receives and accepts an order. eQuipt is under no obligation to loan, sell, or supply goods until an order is accepted.

1.3 Each order constitutes a separate and independent agreement and may be accepted or rejected by eQuipt at its discretion.

2. Loan, Delivery and use of Goods

2.1 Orders are placed by selecting goods, entering the required details, and submitting the order via the website or booking platform.

2.2 Any person at the delivery address who accepts delivery of the goods is deemed authorised to do so on your behalf.

2.3 If delivery cannot be completed, you must liaise directly with the carrier to arrange redelivery. Additional delivery or handling fees may apply.

2.4 Deliveries occur Monday to Friday between 9:00am and 6:00pm (excluding public holidays). Exact delivery times are not guaranteed.

You must keep the goods safe, secure, clean and in good repair (fair wear and tear excepted), store them securely when not in use and prevent theft, loss, seizure or misuse.

3.2 Title in loaned goods does not pass to you. You receive the goods on hire only and acknowledge you hold the goods as sub‑bailee for the supplier of those goods to eQuipt and must not assert any ownership or other right in the goods.

(a) the price specified on the website or booking platform at the time the order is confirmed; and

(b) any additional fees expressly provided for under these Terms & Conditions, including (without limitation) fees arising from late return, loss, damage, misuse, administrative rework, cleaning, re-issue of documentation, replacement logistics, or failure to comply with return requirements.

4.2 By placing an order, you acknowledge and agree that such additional fees may apply where the relevant triggering circumstances occur.

4.3 Pricing and fee disclosures must be provided via the website, booking platform, reservation notes, program documentation, OEM communications, or other written materials forming part of the order process.

4.4 Prices are subject to change for future orders. Changes do not affect orders already accepted.

4.5 Payment is due at the time of placing an order. Accepted payment methods include credit card, Stripe, and bank transfer.

4.6 You authorise eQuipt to charge any credit card you provide and/or apply any security bond held to recover any amounts payable by you under these Terms and Conditions, including hire charges, late fees, amounts for loss of or damage to the goods, and any administrative or recovery costs.
