6.  Fees, Taxes, and Payment Method

Fees and Taxes

In consideration of the Services provided, you shall pay us those fees and other amounts itemized on any Order Form for the Services (collectively, “Fees”). The itemized Fees, as listed on the Order Form and related invoices do not include applicable Taxes. However, you are also responsible for paying all Taxes assessed on the Fees. Tax rate determination is primarily based on the location where your business is established. You confirm that we can rely on the business name and address you provide to us on your Order Form as being your business location and the place where Services will be supplied for tax purposes. We reserve the right to use available resources to validate whether your stated location is accurate. If we determine it is not accurate, we reserve the right to charge and collect any difference in Taxes due. All Fees and Taxes are non-refundable and are generally described as follows:

•    Subscription Fees. Fees for subscription Services are payable in advance on a recurring annual, monthly, or other basis as set forth in the applicable Order Form. No refund shall be issued for partial use or non-use of the subscription Services. However, if you cancel a subscription Service, you will continue to have access to that subscription Service for the remainder of the fully paid subscription period. 

•    Hardware Fees. Fees for hardware are payable in advance and in full prior to access to the Services for which the hardware is needed.

•    Fees for Professional Services.  Fees for implementation and installation Services are payable in advance unless otherwise indicated on the applicable Order Form. Fees for other professional services shall be payable as set forth in an applicable statement of work or separate Order Form.

•    Payment Services Fees.  Fees for Payment Services are set forth in the applicable Order Form.  

•    On Premise Installed Software Fees. Fees for on premise installed software are set forth in the applicable Order Form.

•    Other Fees.  Any additional Fees or other charges as indicated on the applicable Order Form. 

•    Taxes. The Taxes indicated on the applicable Order Form or as may be assessed by the applicable taxing authority.

If you are exempt from Taxes, you shall provide us with all appropriate tax exemption certificates and/or any other documentation as required by the applicable taxing authorities to substantiate such exemption status. We shall have the right to review and validate tax exemption documentation and status at our sole discretion. In the event appropriate documentation is not provided or we determine the documentation provided is insufficient or invalid, we reserve the right to charge applicable Taxes on the Services provided to you.

You agree not to make any deduction or withholding from the Fees or Taxes owed unless required by applicable law. If any such deduction or withholding is required, you will gross up your payment to us to ensure that we receive the amount due in full, free of any deductions or withholdings. Additionally, you will provide us with documentation showing that the withheld or deducted Taxes have been paid to the relevant taxing authority.

Except as may be set forth in your Order Form or any Specific Terms applicable to you, we reserve the right to change and/or add Fees by providing advance written notice in a commercially reasonable timeframe to you via email, through your Account or via invoice. Where advance payment is required for certain Services, we have no obligation to provide such Services if we have not received the required advance payment. We may suspend your access to some or all of the Services during any period in which Fees or other amounts owed to us by you under the Agreement remain past due and/or terminate the Agreement or Specific Terms thereof in accordance with Section 7. For clarity, the Agreement will continue to be applicable during any period of suspension, and Fees will continue to accrue during any suspension. Suspended Services may be restored at our sole discretion upon payment in full of past due amounts and applicable reconnection and any other applicable fees. 

Payment Method

Our Services are conditioned on you providing us with a current, valid credit or debit card or ACH authorization either directly or by registering or linking 1 or more credit cards, debit cards or bank accounts to your Account (collectively, the “Payment Method”) and providing other customary billing information for the payment of our Fees and any other amounts you may owe us under the Agreement. Customary information may include credit or debit card or bank account number, your billing address, bank name and address, name on the account, account type, routing number, and other account information associated with your Payment Method. You agree and authorize us and any third party acting on our behalf including, without limitation, our third party payment processor to debit or charge your Payment Method for Fees, both one-time Fees and recurring Fees as set forth in your Order Form, and other amounts you owe to us, and/or to collect our Fees and other amounts you owe to us in any manner set forth herein, in an applicable

Order Form, or in applicable Specific Terms. Any recurring Fees will be debited from your bank account or charged to your credit card in the amount indicated in billing notifications sent to you. You agree no other prior notifications will be provided to you regarding recurring Fees. If the invoice due date falls on a weekend or holiday, you understand the payment may be executed on the next business day. Debits and charges will subsequently appear on your bank or credit card statement. You also authorize us to initiate credit and debit entries in order to make any adjustments for any transaction debited or credited in error. You agree to maintain sufficient funds in bank accounts and/or sufficient available credit on credit cards identified as the Payment Method to cover amounts owed to us. You agree to notify us of any changes in your Payment Method or termination of your authorizations herein at least 15 days prior to the next invoice due date. The authorizations established under these General Terms will apply to the new Payment Method. We may rely on any written instructions submitted by you requesting changes to the Payment Method. You understand that, if the information supplied as to any ABA routing number and account number for the Payment Method is incorrect, you bear all risk and liability for any debits or charges that are rejected and any credits that are incorrectly credited. Your authorizations, agreements, certifications and waivers in this Payment Method Section apply to any bank account, debit or credit card registered or linked to your Account initially or at a later date when you make or request a modification to the Payment Method. Regardless of the Payment Method provided, we reserve the right to also collect Fees and other amounts you owe to us by deduction from your transaction proceeds. You agree to execute any additional documentation as may be required from time to time for us to debit your bank account(s) and/or debit or charge your cards on the conditions described in these General Terms and/or any applicable Order Form or Specific Terms. By agreeing to these General Terms, you certify you have authority to grant the authorizations described in this Section and confirm the Payment Method registered or linked to your Account is a valid and legitimate account for the handling of the payments described herein. You further certify that you are an authorized user of the Payment Method and you are the only person required to authorize debits from bank accounts or charges to the credit cards registered or linked to your Account. You understand and agree your authorizations will remain in effect until either all of your payment obligations to us have been paid in full or you amend or cancel this authorization in writing. You understand these are electronic transactions and you will have limited time to report and dispute errors. You agree not to dispute any scheduled transactions so long as they correspond to the terms set forth in these General Terms. In the case a transaction is returned for non-sufficient funds (“NSF”), you understand that we may at our discretion attempt to process the charge again within 7 days, and you agree to an additional $35.00 charge for each returned NSF. The NSF charge will be initiated as a separate transaction from the authorized payment. You acknowledge that the origination of electronic transactions to a designated account must comply with the provisions of U.S. law. Our third party payment processor may charge additional fees for processing your Fees payment or for the processing of any other payment you owe to us. We reserve the right, and you hereby authorize us, to include such additional charges in your Fees or other payments owed. Be aware your Payment Method may be subject to additional terms, conditions and fees imposed on you by your applicable payment service provider. You are solely responsible for compliance with all such terms and conditions and liable for all such fees. We reserve the right to pursue all other legal and equitable remedies available to us to collect Fees and other amounts owed to us by you. 

Automatic Renewal

Subscription Services will automatically renew as set forth in Section 7 at our then current prevailing rates without notice and are payable in accordance with this Section 6, unless a notice of non-renewal is sent pursuant to Section 7.  Payment Services will renew as set forth in the Payment Terms.

Past Due Payments

Past due payments will bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower, and will be payable from the due date thereof until paid in full. You will be liable for all collection costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by us to collect Fees. 

7.  Term and Termination 

Term and Termination of Agreement

The Agreement shall remain in effect until all the Services under any applicable Order Forms have expired or are terminated. A subscription Service shall be for the term set forth in an applicable Order Form and will automatically renew without notice for successive terms equal in duration to the term in such Order Form except that a party may terminate such Services by providing at least 30 days written notice prior to the end of the then current term for such Services unless otherwise indicated on the applicable Order Form.  Termination of subscription Services for non-renewal shall be effective upon the expiration of the then current term for such Services. The term for non-subscription Services shall be as set forth in the applicable Order Form or as may be set forth in any applicable Specific Terms referenced in the Order Form.

Termination of Access to Services

In addition to any termination rights set forth above and except with respect to the Payment Services, your right to access the other Services may be terminated earlier in whole or in part without liability to the terminating party as follows:  (i) by us upon 15 days written notice for your failure to timely pay any Fees or other amounts owed to us by you under the Agreement, (ii) by either party upon 30 days written notice in the event the other party materially breaches the Agreement and such breach is not cured within said 30 day period, or (iii) by either party immediately with written notice upon the institution of any insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding by or against the other party including an assignment for the benefit of creditors, the appointment of a receiver over assets, an attachment of assets lasting more than 30 days, or the other party ceases to conduct its business operations in the ordinary course of business. When your rights to all Services have been terminated, the Agreement will also be deemed terminated. We may suspend your access to the Services in whole or in part at any time following breach of the Agreement by you prior to termination. 

Effect of Termination, Data Portability and Deletion

Upon termination of the Agreement for any reason, your right to access the Services, and our obligations, immediately cease except with respect to provisions that survive termination.  Termination of the Agreement or any Specific Terms shall not relieve you of your obligation to pay all Fees owing under any applicable Order Form or any other part of the Agreement for any period prior to the effective date of termination. If your right to any of the Services is terminated by us due to your failure to time pay Fees or any other uncured material breach by you (as described in (i) and (ii) in the Termination of Access to Services paragraph above), you will pay us any unpaid Fees covering the remainder of the contract period as indicated on the applicable Order Form, except as otherwise stated in any applicable Specific Terms. Upon request by you in writing to us as provided in the Notice section below within 5 calendar days of termination or expiration of the Agreement, we will make Your Data (except any data related to the Payment Services) available to you as part of the Services upon payment of our then applicable rates. After such 5 calendar day period, we will have no obligation to maintain or provide Your Data and may thereafter delete or destroy all copies of Your Data in our systems, unless legally prohibited. All provisions that by their nature should survive termination or expiration of the Agreement in order to achieve their purposes, including, without limitation, the parties’ rights and obligations under Sections 4 (with respect to your responsibility for your and your Users’ use of the Services, use restrictions, and title to Intellectual Property), 5, 6, 7 (with respect to the effect of termination, data portability and deletion), 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15, as well as the definitions in these General Terms shall survive termination and remain binding on and for the benefit of the parties.

This may include asking you for additional information, obtaining your tax identification number, verifying your email address, ordering a credit report, and/or verifying your information through third party databases or other sources.

Entire Agreement.  The Agreement and any other document made a part of the Agreement represents the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Services and its terms supersede all prior or contemporaneous oral or written communications, proposals, and representations with respect to the Services or any other subject matter covered by the Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Agreement and the terms of any other materials related to the Services, the terms of the Agreement shall prevail. Nothing in the Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto (and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns) any rights, remedies, liabilities, or obligations under or by reason of the Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency among the following documents, the order of precedence shall be: (i) the applicable Order Form, (ii) the applicable Specific Terms, and then (iii) the General Terms.

You are responsible for reviewing the General Terms and any applicable Specific Terms on a regular basis. Your access to and use of any of the Services following the posting of an amendment constitutes your consent to such amendments. 

No Waiver. No waiver of any provision in the Agreement will constitute a further or continuing waiver of such provision or any other term. The failure of either party to enforce any provision of the Agreement shall not constitute the waiver of such provision.

Severability. The provisions of the Agreement are severable, and any provision determined to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity only, without in any way affecting the remaining parts of the Agreement and such invalid provision shall be replaced with an enforceable provision which achieves to the greatest extent possible the parties’ original intent.

Remedies.  The election of any one or more remedies by either party shall not constitute a waiver of the right to pursue other remedies available at law or in equity.

Governing Law and Venue.  The Agreement and dispute resolution for all claims and controversies arising out of the Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of law principles. Resolution of all Disputes (as defined below) is limited to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located within New Castle County, Delaware. Each party hereby consents to personal jurisdiction in such county and waives any objections with respect to such jurisdiction and venue.

Dispute Resolution by Negotiation in Advance of Suit.  The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to the Agreement or any breach of the Agreement (“Dispute”) promptly by negotiation between executives who have authority to settle the controversy and who are at a higher level of management than the persons with direct responsibility for administration of the Agreement. Any party may give the other party written notice of any Dispute not resolved in the normal course of business. Within 15 days after delivery of the notice, the receiving party shall submit to the other a written response. The notice and response shall include with reasonable particularity (i) your name and Account number, (ii) a detailed statement of each party's position and a summary of arguments supporting that position, (iii) the specific relief sought, including the amount of money or other relief demanded and a calculation for such demand(s), and (iv) the name and title of the executive who will represent that party and of any other person who will accompany the executive.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the negotiating parties, the above-described negotiation shall end at the close of the first meeting of executives described above ("First Meeting"). Such closure shall not preclude continuing or later negotiations, if desired and agreed to by both parties. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the negotiation by the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any proceeding involving the parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the negotiation. At no time prior to the First Meeting shall either side initiate litigation related to the Agreement except to pursue injunctive relief that is authorized by law. However, this limitation is inapplicable to a party if the other party refuses to comply with the requirements of this Section for advance negotiations. All applicable statutes of limitation and defenses based upon the passage of time shall be tolled while the procedures specified above for advance negotiations are pending and for 15 calendar days thereafter. The parties will take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling.

Time Limitation to Initiate a Dispute.  You must initiate a formal action regarding a Dispute in the state or federal courts located within New Castle County, Delaware within 1 year after the cause of action arises.  

Jury Trial and Class Action Waiver.  YOU AND WE EACH WAIVE OUR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THE AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY PART THEREOF. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE AGREEMENT INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.

PAYMENTS SERVICES TERMS

Last Updated: March 30, 2023

Payment Services Provider (“PSP”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) offers merchant payment processing services and we may, from time to time, make other payment-related services available to merchants via our PSP Platform (collectively, the “Payment Services”). Your access to and use of any of the Payment Services is governed by these Payment Services Terms. Where “you”, “your”, or “Merchant” is used herein, it means an individual or business that accesses or uses the Payment Services. Undefined capitalized terms have the meaning given to them in the General Terms. These Payment Services Terms are part of and are incorporated into your Agreement as more specifically described in the General Terms. 

It is your responsibility to carefully read and fully understand these Payment Services Terms. You accept and these Payment Services Terms are effective on the earlier of the date you agree to them by electronically indicating acceptance and/or you first access or use the Payment Services. Upon acceptance, you confirm you have also read, understood, accepted and agree to be bound by and comply with the General Terms, the Processor Ts&Cs and the Card Brand Rules. PSP is entering into these Payment Services Terms on behalf of and as an agent of Acquirer. Any individual accessing or using the Payment Services on behalf of a business represents and warrants that they have the authority to bind the business to these Payment Services Terms.  

Following your acceptance of these Payment Services Terms and Processor Ts&Cs and any necessary approvals, Merchant will be granted the right to access and use the Payment Services solely for business purposes to process Transactions on behalf of Cardholders wishing to purchase Merchant Products and Services (“Customers”). Further, by accepting these Payment Services Terms you authorize PSP to (i) submit Transactions on your behalf to Processor; and (ii) access and use all data and information related to your use of the Payment Services.

The following definitions apply to these Payment Services Terms where capitalized terms are not otherwise defined in the text or the General Terms.

Fraud Control Tool” means a tool set which assigns a fraud score to Transactions indicating the likelihood of the Transaction being fraudulent and enables PSP and/or its Partners (on behalf of Merchant) to automatically reject or suspend the Transaction based on threshold values set on behalf of Merchant. 

Interchange System” means the computer hardware and software operated by and on behalf of the Card Brands for the routing, processing, and settlement of Transactions.

Payment Method” means the method of enabling payments by Customers to Merchant such as Cards, online and offline bank transfers and direct debits offered by the Card Brands.

Processor” means the entity or entities identified as the Processor in your Processor Ts&Cs. 

Processor Ts&Cs” means the applicable Processor’s terms and conditions related to the Payment Services. 

Refund” means a partial or full reversal of a particular Transaction on the initiative or request of Merchant, whereby Transaction funds are reimbursed to the Customer. 

Security Standards” means all rules, regulations, standards or guidelines adopted or required by us, our Partners, the Card Brands, or the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council relating to privacy, data security and the safeguarding, disclosure and handling of Payment Details, including but not limited to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (“PCI DSS”), the Payment Card Industry’s Payment Application Data Security Standard, Visa’s Cardholder Information Security Program, Discover’s Information Security & Compliance Program, American Express’s Data Security Operating Policy, MasterCard’s Site Data Protection Program, Visa’s Payment Application Best Practices, MasterCard’s Terminal Security program, and the Payment Card Industry PIN Entry Device Standard, in each case as they may be amended from time to time. 

Settlement” means the payment of amounts owed to Merchant with respect to settlements received by Processor from Acquirer or Card Brands for Transactions validly processed for Merchant, minus amounts for Refunds, Chargebacks, Fees and other amounts PSP may deduct or cause to be deducted including, without limitation, any Reserve amount. “Settle” and “Settled” shall have the corresponding meanings. 

Settlement Account” means the bank account identified by Merchant during the application process or thereafter as the account into which Settlement payments are to be deposited. 

Software” means the collective set of programs and data developed and/or operated by PSP or its Partners as needed to provide the PSP Platform and Payment Services to Merchants. 

"Taxes" means any value added taxes, goods and services tax, sales tax, turnover and other taxes or levies including penalties, interests, surcharges due on any product or service of Merchant (including but not limited to any Transactions and/or Merchant Products and Services) and all costs or damages related to such Taxes. 

Transaction” means an Authorization request of a Customer (and Capture if applicable) for a payment from the Customer to Merchant submitted by Merchant via the PSP Platform for a particular purchase of Merchant Products and Services. 

2.  Merchant Registration and KYC Check   

Merchant must, as part of the Order Form process, thereafter on an ongoing basis, and within 3 days of PSP’s request, provide PSP with requested information about itself and its activities including, without limitation, the current address of each of  Merchant’s offices, each Merchant “dba”, a complete description of and its ability to provide the Merchant Products and Services, financial information, owner information and such other information as PSP may reasonably determine is needed (collectively, the “Registration Information”) in order to facilitate compliance with applicable laws and regulations as well as Card Brand and Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements. Merchant represents and warrants unconditionally that all Registration Information it provides initially and thereafter is correct, complete, and up to date and hereby authorizes PSP to share Registration Information with its Partners to obtain permission for access to the Payment Services and other Financial Services Merchant may opt into or request from time to time. Merchant will provide PSP with at least 30 Business Days prior written notice of any change in the Registration Information. Merchant agrees that PSP may run further checks on Merchant’s identity, creditworthiness, and background by contacting and consulting relevant registries, government authorities, and other third parties. PSP will collect and process Merchant’s Registration Information in accordance with PSP’s Privacy Policy.  

3.  Compliance   

Merchant agrees to comply and will adopt adequate technical and procedural measures to ensure compliance at all times with applicable laws and regulations, the Card Brand Rules, Security Standards, Processor Ts&Cs, and applicable requirements of our Partners, as such laws, rules, standards and requirements may be modified from time to time, and such other procedures as PSP and/or its Partners may from time to time require relating to the Payment Services. In the event of an inconsistency between any provision in these Payment Services Terms and the Card Brand Rules, the Card Brand Rules will govern. In the event of any inconsistency between these Payment Services Terms and the General Terms, these Payment Services Terms will govern. 

Each Card Brand has the right to enforce any provision of the applicable Card Brand Rules and to prohibit Merchant from engaging in any conduct the Card Brand deems could injure or create a risk of injury to the Card Brand, including injury to reputation, or that could adversely affect the integrity of the Interchange System or the Card Brand’s confidential information (as defined in the Card Brand Rules). Merchant shall not take any action that would interfere with this right. 

Merchant is responsible for regularly reviewing the current Card Brand Rules and relevant changes to laws applicable to its Merchant Products and Services and business practices to ensure its compliance therewith. Where Merchant finds the Card Brand Rules (including Fine possibility) to be unacceptable, Merchant is free to stop using the relevant Payment Method. In the event Merchant ceases using a Payment Method, the Card Brand Rules, these Payment Services Terms, and the Processor Ts&Cs remain applicable to previously processed Transactions related to such Payment Method. Regardless of whether PSP or its Partners make extracts and summaries of the Card Brand Rules available to Merchant, the entirety of the then current applicable Card Brand Rules as issued by the relevant Card Brand are fully binding on Merchant. 

4.   Bona Fide Transactions   

Merchant shall not submit any Transaction that is not a bona fide Transaction. A “bona fide” Transaction is one that (i) is between Merchant and its Customer; (ii) is for the sale of Merchant Products and Services that Merchant sells itself (or a Refund for such a sale); (iii) is submitted on behalf of Merchant (and not on behalf of any third party); (iv) is legal, authorized by the Customer, non-fraudulent or otherwise damaging to the Card Brand(s); and (v) to the Merchant’s knowledge, is enforceable, collectible, and in full compliance with these Payment Services Terms, applicable law, and the Card Brand Rules. Merchant may not resell the Payment Services to third parties. Merchant will not use the Payment Services to handle, process, or transmit funds for any third party. Merchant shall only use the Payment Services in the pursuit of its trade, business, craft or profession.  

At the time Merchant accepts a Card for any Transaction, the Merchant Products and Services shall have been provided or shipped or the services actually rendered to the Customer, except as specifically stated otherwise in Merchant’s Order Form or otherwise approved in writing by PSP in advance. 

Merchant will clearly and conspicuously inform the Customer of Merchant’s identity at all points of interaction. Merchant shall use the Payment Services only for the purposes as agreed herein and shall not perform or allow to be performed any action detrimental to the security or performance of the Payment Services without PSP’s prior written consent. 

5.  Authorization   

Merchant is required to obtain an Authorization in accordance with these Payment Services Terms for each Transaction conducted through the Payment Services. PSP reserves the right to refuse to process any Transaction and/or Payment Details presented by Merchant unless it includes a proper Authorization. 

6.   Existing Debt   

Merchant shall not submit a Transaction for any purpose other than a current Transaction.  Transactions shall not represent the collection of a dishonored check or the collection, transfer, or refinancing of any existing or prior debt or obligation. Merchant shall not attempt to recharge a Customer for an item that has been the subject of a Chargeback by the Customer, even with the Customer’s consent.  

7.  Cash Advances   

Merchant shall not disburse or advance any cash (i) to a Customer (except as authorized by the Card Brand Rules); or (ii) to itself or any of its employees, agents, or other representatives in connection with a Transaction.  

8.  Transaction Thresholds; Surcharges; Split Transactions   

Except as expressly permitted by law, Merchant shall not (i) set a dollar amount above or below which Merchant refuses to honor Cards; or (ii) impose or require Customer to pay any fee or charge (including, without limitation, any surcharge, finance charge, or any of the fees payable by Merchant) in connection with or as a condition of the use or acceptance of a Card, except in conjunction with a program offered by PSP.  

9.  Equal Treatment for Card Brands   

Merchant shall not engage in any practice that unfavorably discriminates against or provides unequal treatment of any Card Brand relative to any other Card Brand, unless expressly permitted by the Card Brand Rules. 

10.  Installment Plans   

Merchant shall not accept Cards in connection with installment plans unless such installment plans are in full compliance with the Card Brand Rules.   

11.  Receipts   

Merchant will make an electronic or paper receipt available to Customers by giving Customers the option to receive a receipt. However, a receipt must be provided if you have a return, refund or exchange policy or you require a receipt for a return or refund. 

12.  Fees, Funding Model and Fees Payment   

Merchant agrees to pay PSP the fees, charges and other amounts itemized on the Order Form for the Payment Services and all applicable excise, sales, use, or other taxes, fees, or charges applicable to the Payment Services, as they may be modified from time to time by PSP in its sole discretion as set forth herein (collectively, “Fees”). Merchant hereby authorizes PSP to cause all Fees owed by Merchant to PSP to be withheld from Merchant’s Settlements and to cause such withheld sums to be immediately paid directly to PSP (“Net Funding Model”). Any process other than the Net Funding Model must be agreed to by us and you in writing.  

In the event Settlements are insufficient to pay Fees due from Merchant to PSP, PSP may deduct, or cause its Partners to deduct, unpaid amounts from the Reserve and, additionally, Merchant hereby authorizes PSP to collect Fees and other amounts due to PSP using any of the methods described in Section 6 of the General Terms including, without limitation, to debit any unpaid amounts from Merchant’s Settlement Account. If such debits and other actions are insufficient to satisfy any amounts owed by Merchant to PSP, then Merchant shall pay all outstanding amounts due to PSP within 3 Business Days of PSP’s issuance of an invoice to Merchant for the amounts due.  

We reserve the right to change and/or add Fees with reasonable advance notice to Merchant via the PSP Platform, your Account, or email. Your continued use of the Payment Services following the effective date of the change or addition constitutes your agreement to the change in Fees. Fees are not refundable. 

13.  Card Brand Logos   

Merchant is authorized to use the Card Brand logos or marks (“Marks”) only on Merchant’s promotional materials and website to indicate that Card Brand Cards are accepted as funding sources for Transactions. PSP may require any changes to Merchant’s website or otherwise that PSP deems necessary or appropriate with regard to Merchant’s use of the Marks.  

Merchant acknowledges and agrees that the Card Brands are the sole and exclusive owners of their Marks and Merchant will not contest the ownership of the Marks for any reason. The Card Brands may at any time, immediately and without advance notice, prohibit Merchant from using any of the Marks for any reason. Merchant’s use or display of any Mark will terminate effective with the termination of these Payment Services Terms or upon notification by a Card Brand to discontinue such use or display, whichever is earlier. 

14.  Payment Terminals   

Merchants using payment terminals to process point of sale (“POS”) Transactions must: 

  • Use payment terminals provided by PSP, and such use shall comply with all documentation and training provided to Merchant; 
  • Ensure that the payment terminal is kept and operated in a suitable environment, used only for the purposes for which it is designed, and operated in a proper manner;
  • Make no alteration to the payment terminal and not remove any component(s) from the payment terminal without the prior written consent of PSP;
  • Permit PSP or its duly authorized representative to inspect the payment terminal at all reasonable times, subject to reasonable notice and during reasonable working hours at the relevant location;
  • Not, without the prior written consent of PSP, allow any third party to use the payment terminal or submit POS Transactions via the payment terminal on behalf of a third party. The payment terminal may only be used by Merchant to submit POS Transactions to PSP in its own name and for the business it registered for when entering into the Agreement;
  • Comply with PCI DSS security requirements imposed by the Card Brands in handling and using payment terminals and on PSP’s request fill out Self-Assessment Questionnaires (“SAQs”) prescribed by the Card Brands under applicable PCI DSS regulations to confirm such compliance;  
  • Follow the Card Brand Rules in operating the payment terminals to submit POS Transactions; and
  • Not use the payment terminals for any purposes following termination of these Payment Services Terms.  

15.  Payment Method Support   

Merchant understands and agrees that supported Payment Methods offered as part of the Payment Services may change from time to time. When this occurs we may, via the PSP Platform or otherwise, block you from further use of a Payment Method or impose additional restrictions or conditions on its continued use. 

16.  Fraud Control   

Screening Transactions for possible fraud will be offered by PSP as an additional product with applicable fees. Nevertheless, such screening does not guarantee the prevention of fraudulent Transactions, nor does it guarantee against possible Chargebacks or Fines. Regardless of the use of the Fraud Control Tool, Merchant bears the risk that Transactions may be fraudulent. In addition to possible rejection of a Transaction by the Fraud Control Tool, PSP reserves the right to cancel Transactions we reasonably suspect to be fraudulent or involving other criminal activities, even if the Fraud Control Tool failed to block the Transaction. 

17.  Settlements    

Validly processed Transactions will be settled into the Settlement Account, subject to Fees and other amounts being withheld as described in these Payment Services Terms. PSP is the creditor with respect to any such withheld amounts.  

Merchant is responsible for providing PSP with Merchant’s Settlement instructions during the on-boarding process, and thereafter for any changes, via the PSP Platform or other written communication with PSP. PSP has no obligation to, and will not, review Merchant’s Settlement instructions for accuracy or completeness. Merchant hereby represents and warrants that such instructions are accurate, complete, and current, and PSP is authorized to rely on such instructions. Merchant’s Settlement instructions will be binding on Merchant, and Merchant hereby authorizes PSP to deliver Merchant’s Settlement instructions to Partners as necessary to facilitate Settlement.   

PSP reserves the right to withhold, or cause its Partners to withhold, Settlement of Transactions if they are Captured but suspected to be fraudulent, related to illegal activities, are subject to refund, or are likely to become subject to a Chargeback until satisfactory completion of investigation by PSP, its Partners, Card Brands, or a third party nominated by any of these parties. Merchant will give its full cooperation to any such investigation. No interest will be due on such held amounts. 

18.  Settlement Delay and Reserve   

Merchant agrees that PSP may, or may cause its Partners to, at any time temporarily suspend or delay payment of Settlements and withhold from Settlements a designated amount (a “Reserve”) to secure the performance of Merchant’s obligations under these Payment Services Terms. PSP may require a Reserve for any reason related to your use of the Payment Services. The Reserve will be in an amount as reasonably determined by PSP, in its sole discretion, to cover potential losses to PSP related to your use of the Payment Services. The Reserve may be increased, reduced or removed at any time by PSP, in its sole discretion, based on factors including, but not limited to, Chargeback levels, Transaction levels, Fees, payment history, a credit review, the amount of any arbitration award or court judgment against you in PSP’s favor, or otherwise as PSP may determine or require.  

At any time PSP determines, in its sole discretion, that you do not have sufficient funds in your Reserve, you authorize PSP (i) to fund, or cause its Partners to fund, the Reserve from your Settlements; (ii) to debit, or cause its Partners to debit, amounts needed for the Reserve from your Settlement Account and/or any other bank account provided to PSP as part of the application process or thereafter; and/or (iii) to fund, or cause its  Partners to fund, the Reserve from any other funding source associated with your use of the Payment Services as more fully described in Section 6 of the General Terms.  

Merchant grants PSP a security interest in and lien on any and all funds held in any Reserve, and also authorizes PSP to make, or cause its Partners to make, any withdrawals or debits from the Reserve or any bank account provided to PSP as part of the application process or thereafter, without prior notice to Merchant, to collect amounts that you owe us. Merchant agrees to execute any additional documentation required for us to perfect our security interest in any funds in the Reserve. This security interest survives for as long as there are funds in your Reserve. 

19.  Prohibited Products and Services List   

Merchant may use the Payment Services only for payment of those Merchant Products and Services which Merchant agreed with PSP will be offered through the PSP Platform. Merchant shall not use the Payment Services for the payment of Merchant Products and Services (i) which violate any Card Brand Rule, (ii) which are identified in PSP’s Prohibited and Restricted Industries, Products and Services List,(except for products or services in the “restricted” category where an express waiver is agreed to by PSP), or (iii) where it is illegal to offer or provide the Merchant Products or Services to or from the relevant country, state or other local jurisdictions.  This list may be updated in PSP’s discretion and/or where needed to ensure legal compliance, compliance to Card Brand Rules or Partner requirements, to prevent high levels of Chargebacks and/or to reduce exposure to potentially fraudulent or illegal transactions. Merchant is responsible for periodically reviewing PSP’s Prohibited and Restricted Industries, Products and Services List. Any change therein will be effective as of the date posted to our Website.  Where a published change affects a significant portion of the Merchant Products and Services, Merchant may terminate the Payment Services Terms by giving written notice to PSP.  

20.  Fines   

Merchant shall be fully liable for all Fines levied against PSP and/or any of its Partners as a direct or indirect result of Merchant’s acts or omissions and/or use of the Payment Services including, without limitation (i) any violation of applicable laws or regulations or the Card Brand Rules by Merchant; (ii) Transactions processed or presented for processing by Merchant; and (iii) any other acts or omissions of Merchant, its employees, agents, or representatives. PSP may recoup, or cause its Partners to recoup on PSP’s behalf, the amount of any Fines or penalties listed in the Fees schedule or assessed by a third party from your Settlements, any Reserve, or any other proceeds due to you or by pursuing any Payment Method described in Section 6 of the General Terms which includes, without limitation, debiting such unpaid amounts from Merchant’s Settlement Account. We are also entitled to pursue all other legal and equitable remedies available to us to collect amounts owed to PSP by you. Where PSP becomes aware of and/or receives any notice of a potential exposure to a Fine related to any Merchant behavior, Merchant will on first request provide all reasonable co-operation to help investigate the relevant circumstances and remedy the violation, notwithstanding all other rights and remedies of PSP in such situation per these Payment Services Terms.  

21.  Chargebacks and Chargeback Liability    

The amount of a Transaction may be charged back to Merchant if: (i) it is disputed by a Customer; (ii) it is reversed for any reason; (iii) it was not authorized or PSP has any reason to believe it was not authorized; or (iv) it is unlawful, suspicious, or in violation of the terms of these Payment Services Terms, the Card Brand Rules or Partner requirements.  Merchant has full liability for the amount of any and all Chargebacks (and may have conditional liability for such Chargebacks prior to their final adjudication pursuant to the Card Brand Rules), regardless of whether the Chargeback complies with the Card Brand Rules. Merchant shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that Merchant Products and Services are actually delivered in accordance with applicable laws and orders placed by the Customer and shall take all other reasonable actions to resolve disputes with Customers and avoid any Chargebacks. Should a Chargeback dispute occur, Merchant shall promptly comply with all requests for information from PSP.  

PSP may recoup, or cause its Partners to recoup on PSP’s behalf, the amount of any Chargeback and associated Fees, Fines, or penalties from your Settlements, Settlement Account, any Reserve, or any other proceeds due to you or by pursuing any other Payment Method described in these Payment Services Terms or in Section 6 of the General Terms.  We are also entitled to pursue all other legal and equitable remedies available to us to collect Chargeback amounts and associated Fees, Fines, or penalties owed to PSP by Merchant. If Merchant has pending Chargebacks, PSP may delay, or cause its Partners to delay, Settlements. Further, if we reasonably believe that a Chargeback is likely with respect to any Transaction, PSP may withhold, or cause its Partner to withhold, the amount of the potential Chargeback from payments otherwise due to you until such time as: (i) a Chargeback is assessed due to a Customer complaint, in which case we will retain the funds if PSP is required to cover the Chargeback; (ii) the period of time under applicable law or regulation by which your Customer may dispute that the Transaction has expired; or (iii) we determine that a Chargeback on the Transaction will not occur. If PSP is unable to recover funds related to a Chargeback for which you are liable, you agree to pay us the full amount of the Chargeback immediately upon demand. You agree to pay all costs and expenses, including legal fees, incurred by us for the collection of all amounts unpaid by you whether for Chargebacks, Fees, Fines, penalties or any other amounts due by Merchant to PSP under these Payment Services Terms.  

If PSP determines, in its sole and exclusive discretion, that Merchant is or is at risk of incurring an excessive amount of Chargebacks, related fees, Fines, penalties or other losses, PSP  may establish, or cause its Partners to establish, controls or conditions governing Merchant’s use of the Payment Services, including without limitation, by: (i) assessing Merchant additional fees; (ii) creating or increasing the Reserve in an amount reasonably determined by PSP to cover anticipated Fines, penalties, unpaid Fees, Chargebacks, and other losses; (iii) delaying Transaction Settlement payments; and (iv) terminating or suspending Merchant’s access to the Payment Services.  

Merchant shall assist, at its expense, in the investigation of any and all Chargebacks or other actual or potential Transaction disputes and shall timely provide such information to PSP as PSP may request. To that end, you permit us to share information about a Chargeback with the Customer, the Customer’s financial institution, your financial institution, and others as necessary in order to investigate and/or mediate a Chargeback. We will request necessary information from you to contest the Chargeback. If the Chargeback is contested successfully, we will release corresponding Reserve funds to you less any related amounts due to PSP. You acknowledge that your failure to assist us in a timely manner when investigating a Transaction, including providing necessary documentation within 5 days of our initial request, or sooner if required by PSP, may result in an irreversible Chargeback. PSP reserves the right, upon notice to you, to charge a fee for mediating and/or investigating Chargeback disputes. Merchant may not transfer or attempt to transfer its financial liability by asking or requiring a Customer to waive their dispute right. 

22.  Authorization to Instruct Processor   

In each of the instances in these Payment Services Terms where PSP has the right to cause certain events to occur or actions to be taken, Merchant expressly agrees PSP has the authority to take the steps necessary to exercise such right including, without limitation, instructing Processor to cause such events to occur or take such actions on PSP’s behalf. 

23.  Taxes   

Merchant shall not add any Taxes to Transactions unless applicable law expressly allows or requires Merchant to impose such Taxes. If any Taxes are allowed, such amounts shall be included in the Transaction and shall not be collected separately. Merchant has the exclusive responsibility to calculate, charge, collect and remit state and other Taxes applicable to Merchant Products and Services sales.  Merchant shall (i) apply all reasonable efforts to ensure that none of PSP or its Partners can be held liable for any Taxes, costs or damages related to such Taxes; (ii) promptly inform PSP of any such liability; and (iii) provide PSP with all relevant information and documentation in that respect.  

PSP or it Partners may have tax reporting responsibilities in connection with the Payment Services such as an Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-K. Therefore, upon request, Merchant shall provide PSP with the appropriate taxpayer information. PSP may, in accordance with applicable law and from time to time during the term of these Payment Services Terms, request Merchant to recertify its taxpayer information hereunder. Merchant shall be responsible for any penalties accruing based on the actions or inactions of Merchant despite reasonable requests and/or notices from PSP and/or its Partners. 

24.  Security Interest and Right of Setoff  

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you grant us a security interest in, as well as setoff rights against, and assign, convey, deliver, pledge and transfer to us, as security for repayment of any obligations due by Merchant to PSP under these Payment Services Terms, all of your right, title, and interest in and to all of your Settlement Proceeds, any other amounts due to Merchant, and the Reserve.  

Without prejudice to any right to setoff which we may be entitled to as a matter of law, PSP shall have the right, and you authorize PSP, without presentation, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by you, to take any of the following actions or to cause such actions to be taken on its behalf: (i) setoff any amounts or other liabilities owed to PSP by Merchant under or in connection with these Payment Services Terms  (regardless of whether such obligation is contingent, matured, or unmatured) against any amounts due to Merchant from Processor, now or at any time in the future; or (ii) administratively freeze or direct any third party holding Settlements or the Reserve to freeze all such accounts to allow PSP to protect its security interest, collection, charge and setoff rights as provided for in this Section.  

25.  Use of Payment Details   

Merchant shall not copy, capture or intercept Payment Details that are provided by the Customer for payments to be processed via the Payment Services. This rule is strictly enforced by the Card Brands, and violation of the rule will result in high Fines being assessed. Additionally, Merchant shall not request or use any Payment Details for any purpose except to process payment for Merchant Products and Services or to provide a Refund for Merchant Products and Services previously sold, unless required by the Card Brand Rules. Merchant agrees that (i) it will not use Payment Details for any purpose that it knows or should know to be fraudulent or in violation of any Card Brand Rules; (ii) it will not sell, purchase, provide or exchange in any manner or disclose Payment Details to anyone other than PSP, its Partners, or any Card Brand, or in response to a government request; and (iii) it will be compliant with the Security Standards, including PCI DSS, and will cooperate in a forensic investigation if so required. If PSP has reason to believe Merchant is copying, capturing, intercepting or misusing Payment Details, PSP has the right to suspend Merchant’s access to the PSP Platform and/or to suspend, or cause its Partners to suspend, the processing of Transactions and Settlement.  

26.  Responsibility for Merchant Products and Services and Customer Service  

Merchant is solely responsible for its Merchant Products and Services and all related customer service issues including pricing, order fulfillment, order cancellation by Merchant or the Customer, returns, Refunds and adjustments, rebates, functionality and warranty, technical support and feedback concerning experiences with Merchant personnel, policies or processes.  Merchant shall post its customer service telephone number on its website. Merchant is responsible for all actions of its employees, agents and representatives with respect to customer service and otherwise. 

Merchant represents and warrants that it has all necessary licenses, permits and authorizations from the local, state, federal or other government agencies as necessary to sell any products or services for which it processes payment transactions through PSP. Further, Merchant represents and warrants that it performs all customer verifications including, without limitation, any applicable age verifications and other procedures required by the laws, rules and regulations which govern Merchant’s business and the sale of Merchant Products and Services. Merchant also agrees that it will submit any and all relevant licenses, permits and authorizations for review by the PSP within 5 business days of PSP’s request. PSP’s acceptance of Merchant should not be interpreted as advice or an opinion from PSP as to the legality of Merchant Products and Services and/or of Merchant’s intended use of the Payment Services with respect to such products and services.  

27.  Customer Refunds and Returns  

Merchant’s refund policies must be the same for all Payment Methods. Merchant agrees to process returns and provide Refunds and adjustments for Merchant Products and Services in accordance with these Payment Services Terms and the Card Brand Rules.  The Card Brand Rules require that Merchant will: (i) maintain a fair return, cancellation or adjustment policy; (ii) clearly disclose Merchant return or cancellation policy to Customers at the time of purchase; (iii) not give cash refunds to a Customer in connection with a Transaction, unless required by law; and (iv) not accept cash or any other item of value for preparing a Transaction refund.  If Merchant limits refund or exchange terms, proper disclosure would include wording that is prominently displayed such as “NO REFUND, EXCHANGE ONLY” and includes any special terms. Be aware that limiting your refund or exchange terms will not eliminate your exposure to a Chargeback and may not eliminate your liability for a Refund under consumer protection laws. Additionally, Card Brand Rules frequently allow the Customer to still dispute these items. 

Merchant represents and warrants that any Transaction to credit a Customer’s Card represents a Refund for a prior Transaction using the same Card. Merchant shall not submit any Refund Transaction: (i) that does not correlate to an original sales Transaction from the Customer; (ii) that exceeds the amount of the original sales Transaction, unless the excess represents the exact amount required to reimburse the Customer for shipping charges paid by the Customer to return merchandise; (iii) for returned Merchant Products and Services that were acquired in a cash purchase from Merchant; (iv) that would cause an overdraft; or (v) more than 3 days following either: (a) a regulatory requirement granting a Customer’s right to a Refund; or (b) a non-disputed Customer request. Merchant shall not accept any payment from a Customer as consideration for issuing a Refund. 

28.  Processor Ts&Cs 

Adyen 

Where your Processor is Adyen, upon acceptance of the Payment Services Terms, you confirm you have also read, understood, accepted and agree to be bound by Adyen for Platforms Terms and Conditions

If merchant was provided with Adyen payment terminal(s) then (i) return it to Adyen within 5 Business Days of termination, or (ii) destroy all payment terminals itself (at its own cost) within 3 Business Days of termination in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations, including those imposed by Card Brands, Security Standards, and the Payment Terminal manufacturer.

30.  Privacy  

Merchant will comply with the personal data protection laws for the Merchant’s country of origin (and any applicable state or provincial jurisdiction) and of those countries in which the Merchant offers its Merchant Products and Services from time to time, in particular when processing and sending personal data in the context of using the Payment Services and submitting Transactions. Merchant shall implement appropriate measures to protect personal data against misuse.  

31.  Notice Requirements for Change in Merchant Business   

In addition to any other notice obligations set forth herein, Merchant shall provide PSP at least 30 days’ prior written notice of its intent to change its trade name, its Merchant Products and Services, or the manner in which it accepts Payment Methods. If PSP determines such a change is material to its relationship with Merchant, PSP may refuse to process Transactions submitted subsequent to the change or terminate this Agreement on notice to Merchant.

34.  WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS  

FOR CLARITY, THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS IN SECTION 8 OF THE GENERAL TERMS SHALL APPLY TO THE PAYMENT SERVICES.  

35.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY  

Without limiting the Limitation of Liability provisions at Section 9 of the General Terms, all of which apply to the Payment Services, the following clarifications and limitations shall also apply to the Payment Services. PSP shall only be liable for its own acts or omissions and not for any acts or omissions of third parties. This exclusion expressly applies to acts or omissions of Card Brands and Partners and for events or activities originating outside the systems of PSP (such as internet disturbances or malfunctions in third party systems), except in case such events were caused by the intentional wrongdoing or gross negligence of PSP.  

By way of example and not as a limitation, PSP shall not be liable for, and Merchant expressly releases PSP from, all liability, damages, costs, losses and expenses arising directly or indirectly from:  

Any change in the supported Payment Methods; 

Any Partner’s failure to perform any its obligations under related Processor Ts&Cs including, without limitation, its failure to timely and accurately deliver Settlement proceeds to Merchant; 

PSP’s or any Partner’s failure, either through the Fraud Control Tool or independently, to identify and block fraudulent Transactions or Transactions involving other criminal activities; and 

Late or non-performance, insolvency or bankruptcy of any Partner or Card Brand due to which Merchant receives late Settlement, partial Settlement, or no Settlement at all for processed Transactions or Merchant incurs other harm.

If any claims for damages, costs and expenses are asserted against Merchant by third parties alleging that these third parties are the owner of any rights regarding the Software and/or systems of PSP, PSP shall indemnify Merchant without delay from these third party claims, including Merchant’s reasonable costs of its legal defense, and offer Merchant the necessary assistance in its legal defense.  

In addition to Merchant’s indemnification obligations at Section 11 and elsewhere in the General Terms, Merchant shall indemnify and hold PSP, our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, managers, directors, shareholders, members, employees, agents and representatives  harmless from and against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, judgments, Taxes, and expenses (including, without limitation, collection and attorneys’ fees)  arising out of or in connection with: (i) breach of any warranty, covenant or agreement or any misrepresentation by Merchant under these Payment Services Terms or the Processor Ts&Cs; (ii) violation of any applicable laws and/or the Card Brand Rules applying to Merchant and/or the Payment Methods used by Merchant; (iii) Merchant’s, or its employees’, agents’, or representatives’ negligence or willful misconduct; (iv) Merchant’s, or its employees’, agents’, or representatives’ acts or omissions in connection with Transactions, Customer disputes, Customer service related issues, Merchant’s business or operations, or otherwise arising from Merchant’s provision of Merchant Products and Services to Customers; (v) Merchant’s use of the Payment Services; or (vi) any third party indemnifications PSP is obligated to make, or liabilities or other obligations PSP may incur, as a result of Merchant’s acts or omissions (including, without limitation, indemnifications of or liabilities to, any Partner or Card Brand or Issuer). For clarity, Merchant’s indemnification obligations expressly include, but are not limited to, claims by Card Brands or Partners for payments of Fines and any other sums withheld from amounts otherwise due to PSP as a result of Merchant’s acts, omissions, liabilities and obligations. 

37.  General Provisions

Any permitted assignee or successor entity must provide such additional information and execute such additional documentation or take any further actions as PSP may request in order to ensure continued processing of Transactions in accordance with these Payment Services Terms.  

Null Provisions.  In the event any provision in these Payment Services Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable under any law, rule, or regulation, including any Card Brand Rule, such determination will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of these Payment Services Terms. The parties shall take all steps to eliminate the provision declared invalid or unenforceable and to replace the same with a provision approaching, insofar as possible, the economic objective of the eliminated provision.
