Public Offer

for paid access to the features of the Budo.asia platform

Version dated 9 September 2026

Important condition. A payment under this Offer is a fee paid by an organiser for the use of Budo.asia technical resources in relation to a specific tournament. It is not an athlete's entry or registration fee. Budo.asia does not accept or retain payments from participants or coaches.

1. General provisions

1.1. Individual Entrepreneur “AQYLDY SHESHIMDER”, Individual Identification Number 790520000010, hereinafter referred to as the “Provider”, offers any legally capable individual, individual entrepreneur or legal entity acting as the organiser of a sporting competition, hereinafter referred to as the “Customer”, to enter into an agreement on the terms of this public offer (the “Offer”).

1.2. A Customer acting on behalf of a club, school, federation, team or other organisation confirms that it has all necessary authority.

1.3. The Customer's completion of all of the following actions constitutes full and unconditional acceptance of the Offer: reviewing the Offer and the applicable pricing plan, confirming acceptance in the Budo.asia interface, and successfully paying for the generated order. The agreement is deemed concluded when the Provider receives confirmation of successful payment.

1.4. The relationship between the parties is also governed by the Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, and the order terms displayed to the Customer before payment. If the specific order terms conflict with this Offer, the specific order terms prevail, provided that they do not restrict any mandatory rights granted to the Customer by law.

1.5. The Offer is published in Russian, Kazakh and English. All language versions are intended to convey the same meaning. In the event of any discrepancy, the Russian text shall be used for interpretation unless mandatory provisions of applicable law require otherwise.

2. Definitions

2.1. Platform means the Budo.asia website, its web applications and related software features.

2.2. Tournament means a specific sporting competition created by the Customer on the Platform.

2.3. Licence means a limited, non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use the Platform features included in the selected pricing plan for one Tournament, together with access to the corresponding technical resources.

2.4. Participant means a person registered for a Tournament on the Platform, regardless of whether that person attends weigh-in, is admitted to compete or actually participates in any bout.

3. Subject matter

3.1. The Provider grants the Customer paid access to the Platform features for organising and technically supporting one Tournament, and the Customer accepts and pays for such access.

3.2. The Licence includes:

  • registration of Participants up to the limit included in the selected pricing plan;
  • an unlimited number of categories, tatami areas and judges;
  • draw generation, single-elimination brackets and round-robin formats;

  • bout records, results and distribution of placement notifications to Participants;
  • a public Tournament page and listing in the Platform's general catalogue.

3.3. The Licence is assigned to a specific Tournament and cannot be transferred to another tournament.

3.4. The Provider supplies the technical Platform only and does not become the organiser of the Tournament. The Customer independently determines the rules, admission conditions, categories, documentation requirements, entry fees, judging, medical and other support, safety arrangements and protest procedure, and remains responsible for conducting the Tournament.

4. Price

4.1. The Licence price, included features and Participant limit are determined by the pricing plan in effect when the order is placed.

4.2. The current price, payment currency, applicable taxes, included Participant limit and any additional charge are displayed to the Customer on the Pricing and Payment page and in the order summary before payment.

4.3. If the number of registered Participants exceeds the paid limit, an additional invoice is generated in the Customer's account under the then-current pricing plan. Each paid invoice increases the paid limit, and a subsequent invoice covers only Participants exceeding the limit already paid for.

4.4. All registered Participants are counted when calculating an additional charge, including those who do not attend weigh-in, are not admitted or do not actually compete.

4.5. By selecting the payment button, the Customer confirms agreement with the final price, currency, service composition and other terms of the specific order. The price and paid scope of an order already accepted by the Provider are not subject to change.

5. Payment

5.1. Payment is made using one of the cashless methods available to the Customer in the Platform interface when the order is placed. The available methods may change depending on connected banks, payment organisations, technical availability and the payer's country.

5.2. When paying by bank card, the Customer enters the card details on a secure payment page operated by the payment organisation PayLink.kz or the bank processing the payment. The Provider does not receive or store complete bank card details.

5.3. The payment obligation is deemed fulfilled when the Provider receives confirmation of a successful transaction from the bank or payment organisation. Confirmation showing the amount and transaction number is provided to the Customer through the Platform interface and/or the contact details supplied by the Customer.

5.4. If the Customer's bank performs currency conversion, the applicable exchange rate and any fees are determined by that bank.

6. Activation and acceptance

6.1. Following successful payment, information about the Tournament is published on the Platform and access to the paid technical resources is activated without undue delay, normally automatically.

6.2.

7.5. A refund is made to the same bank card used for payment. If this is technically or legally impossible, the parties shall agree another lawful refund method.
