In no event shall a change to the Fare calculation and/or an adjustment to the Fare result in payment to you in an amount less than the minimum level of compensation as described in Section 8.1.

Your acceptance of a Delivery request with the associated driver earnings will constitute your acceptance of the Service Fee.
