THIS AGREEMENT SETS FORTH THE LEGALLY BINDING TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR YOUR USE OF THE VARIOUS WEBSITES OWNED AND OPERATED BY PAYSTAND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE PAYSTAND.COM WEBSITE AND DOMAIN NAME (“SITES”), AND ANY OTHER FEATURES, CONTENT, OR APPLICATIONS OFFERED FROM TIME TO TIME BY PAYSTAND IN CONNECTION THEREWITH (COLLECTIVELY, THE “SERVICE”). BY REGISTERING FOR AN ACCOUNT ON THE SERVICE, OR USING THE SITES OR SERVICE IN ANY MANNER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO VISITING OR BROWSING THE SITES, YOU OR THE ENTITY THAT YOU REPRESENT (“MERCHANT”, “YOU”, “YOUR”) AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT. YOU MAY REGISTER FOR THE SERVICE ONLY AS A SOLE PROPRIETOR OR AS A BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, AND MAY NOT USE PAYSTAND FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY, OR HOME PURPOSES. IF YOU ARE REGISTERING FOR THE SERVICES ON BEHALF OF AN ENTITY YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU ARE AUTHORIZED TO BIND SUCH ENTITY ON WHOSE BEHALF YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT APPLIES TO ALL USERS OF THE SITES OR SERVICE, INCLUDING USERS WHO ARE ALSO CONTRIBUTORS OF CONTENT, INFORMATION, AND OTHER MATERIALS OR SERVICES ON THE SITES.
The Service is offered subject to acceptance without modification of all of the terms and conditions contained herein and all other operating rules, policies and procedures that may be published from time to time on the Sites by Paystand. In addition, some services offered through the Service may be subject to additional terms and conditions promulgated by Paystand from time to time; your use of such services is subject to those additional terms and conditions, which are incorporated into these Terms of Use by this reference.
To be eligible to use Paystand, you must be at least 18 years old and located in the United States of America. You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old and that all registration information you submit is accurate and truthful. Paystand may, in its sole discretion, refuse to offer the Service to any person or entity and change its eligibility criteria at any time. This provision is void where prohibited by law and the right to access the Service is revoked in such jurisdictions.
Paystand reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace any of the Terms of Use, or change, suspend, or discontinue the Service (including without limitation, the availability of any feature, database, or content) at any time by posting a notice on the Site or by sending you an email. In addition, any disclosure or notice regarding the Service may be provided to you by posting a notice on the Site or by sending you an email. You agree that electronic disclosures and notices have the same meaning and effect as if we had provided you with a paper copy. Paystand may also impose limits on certain features and services or restrict your access to parts or all of the Service without notice or liability. It is your responsibility to check the Terms of Use periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Service following the posting of any changes to the Terms of Use constitutes acceptance of those changes.
The Service enables Merchants to incorporate payment functionality in online stores through which they sell their products and services. Paystand provides the Service to Merchants to facilitate receipt by Merchants of payments by card or bank transfer which are made by Merchant’s customers (“Purchasers”). Transactions are solely between Merchants and Purchasers, and Paystand is not a party to these transactions. Paystand is not a bank, money transmitter, or Money Services Business (“MSB”), and we do not offer banking or MSB services as defined by the United States Department of Treasury.
Card payments are initiated by providing information to a payment processor and/or a bank (the “Bank”) that is a member of a credit or other payment card network, association, or company, (collectively, the “Networks”). Bank transfer payments are initiated by providing information to the Bank via bank-to-bank exchange or through the National Automated Clearing House (“ACH”).
Paystand collects, analyzes and transmits information about you and your transactions in connection with payments between Purchasers and Merchants. You authorize Paystand to provide this information to the Bank in order for the Bank to facilitate payments from Purchasers to Merchants through the Networks and/or the ACH. Paystand does not hold, own or control funds in connection with the Services, nor does Paystand transmit money or monetary value. In connection with the Services, Paystand does not actually or constructively receive, take possession of or hold any money or monetary value for transmission, and does not advertise, solicit or hold itself out as receiving money for transmission. The Bank is the party with sole responsibility for conducting the settlement of funds between Purchasers and Merchants.
Paystand may enter into agreements with the Networks, processors and the Bank, from time to time. You are not a third-party beneficiary of these agreements. Each of the Networks, processors and the Bank is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and has beneficiary rights, but not obligations, and may enforce this Agreement against you. Some of these third parties may require a direct agreement with you. If you are required to enter into such an agreement and decline to do so, we may suspend or terminate your Account.
To the extent that the Bank has any obligations to pay Merchants, such obligations are governed by (a) the provisions of the Bank’s agreement with Paystand, and (b) the by-laws, operating regulations and all other rules, policies and procedures of the Networks as are in effect at any time (the “Network Regulations”). Paystand or the Bank will pay out funds settling from the Networks to the designated bank settlement account you provided when establishing your Paystand Account (“Bank Account”) in the amounts actually received (less our Fees, as defined below) for card transactions submitted via the Service. The Bank Account must be verified and located at bank branch in the United States and held in the name of the Merchant’s business. You are responsible for the accuracy and correctness of information regarding your Bank Account. Funds for any given transaction will not be transferred to your Bank Account until the transaction is deemed complete. Transactions will be deemed complete when we have received funds settling from the Networks and when we or our processing financial institutions have accepted such funds. The actual timing of the transfers to your Bank Account of the settling funds will be subject to the Payout Schedule (as defined below).
The Service may permit you to link to other websites or resources on the Internet, and other websites or resources may contain links to the Sites. When you access third party websites, you do so at your own risk. These other websites are not under Paystand’s control, and you acknowledge that Paystand is not responsible or liable for the content, functions, accuracy, legality, appropriateness or any other aspect of such websites or resources. The inclusion of any such link does not imply endorsement by Paystand or any association with its operators. You further acknowledge and agree that Paystand shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any content, goods or services available on or through any such third-party website or resource.
License to Site Content.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Content” includes, without limitation, any advertisements, advice, suggestions, videos, audio clips, written forum comments, information, data, text, photographs, software, scripts, graphics, and interactive features generated, provided, or otherwise made accessible by Paystand or its partners on or through the Service. You agree that the Service contains Content specifically provided by Paystand or its partners and that such Content is protected by copyrights, trademarks, service marks, patents, trade secrets or other proprietary rights and laws. You shall abide by all copyright notices, information, and restrictions contained in any Content accessed through the Service. You shall not sell, license, rent, modify, distribute, copy, reproduce, reverse engineer, transmit, publicly display, publicly perform, publish, adapt, edit, create derivative works from, or otherwise exploit any Content or third-party submissions or other proprietary rights not owned by you, (a) without the consent of the respective owners or other valid right, or (b) in any way that violates any third-party right.
You may, to the extent the Sites expressly authorize you to do so, download or copy the Content, and other items displayed on the Sites for download, for personal, non-commercial use only, provided that you maintain all copyright and other notices contained in such Content. You shall not store any significant portion of any Content in any form. Copying or storing of any Content for any reason other than personal, noncommercial use is expressly prohibited without prior written permission from Paystand, or from the copyright holder identified in such Content’s copyright notice.
In order to access Paystand’s Services, you will be required to create an account on the Services (“Account” or “Paystand Account”) and provide certain registration information. When creating your Account, you agree to (a) provide accurate, truthful, current and complete information when creating your Account; and (b) maintain and promptly update your Account information. You may be required to provide us with information and documentation including, but not limited to, your email address, a self-selected password, street address, telephone number, tax identification number (such as Social Security Number), date of birth, articles of incorporation, financial statements, passports, driver's license or a business license. By accepting the terms of this Agreement, you authorize us to retrieve information such as credit history, address history, and other data about you by using third parties, including credit bureaus and other information providers. You authorize Paystand, directly or through third parties, to make inquiries or verify that this information is accurate, and specifically authorize us to perform a background check. If we cannot verify that the information provided by you is complete and accurate, we may deny your use of our Service, or close your Account. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate the Account of anyone who provides inaccurate, untrue, or incomplete information, or who fails to comply with the account registration requirements. After we have collected and verified all your information, Paystand will review your Account and determine if you are eligible to use the Service. We may periodically update the information we collect about you to determine whether you continue to meet our eligibility requirements. At any time, we may conclude that you are not permitted to use (or continue to use) the Services, in our sole discretion.
We may share some or all of the information about your and your transactions with our processor, the Networks, the Bank, and our other partners (and our and their respective affiliates, agents, subcontractors, and employees). Anyone that we share information with may use the information to perform their obligations under their agreements with us, to operate and promote their respective networks, to perform analytics and create reports, to prevent fraud, and for any other lawful purpose. Any of our partners may also make eligibility determinations and conclude that you are not permitted to use the Services.
To the extent that any information we collect about you is personally identifiable information, it is subject to the terms of our Privacy Policy. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for information about how Paystand collects, uses and discloses personally identifiable information from its users.
Each Account must be linked to a verified Bank Account.
Paystand charges fees to Merchants using the Service (the “Fees”). Paystand may also charge Merchants Fees for exceptions processing, such as when a Merchant receives a Chargeback (as defined below). In addition, Merchant agrees to pay Paystand the Fees that may be set forth on the Site and/or Services from time to time. All Fees are stated in U.S. dollars. You shall pay all applicable Fees, as described on the Site in connection with the applicable Services. Rather than collecting payments directly from Merchants, to the extent permitted by law, the Bank may withhold these Fees (and any other obligations you may owe us) on our behalf from payments received by Merchant (e.g., from Purchasers). In addition, we may deduct any applicable Fees from your Reserve Account (as defined below). Card fees will be assessed as the interchange data is received by our banking partners and networks. Your qualified card (b2b level 3, ecommerce basic, card present, regulated debit, and non-profit) rate is included in your contract. A 25bps assessment is added for tier 2 cards (b2b level 2, card not present basic cards, unregulated debit, basic rewards cards). An additional 50bps assessment is added for tier 3 (commercial and consumer premium cards). Finally, an additional 50 bps assessment is added for tier 4 (high tier commercial cards and AMEX when settled by Paystand). These rates are applicable to Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Diners Club, and JCB. Depending on merchant agreement, AMEX cards will either be processed at the tier 4 card rate, or through AMEX directly with a merchant identification number. Fees for bank to bank transactions, and ach are defined in your contract and will also be assessed as they are received directly from the related banking networks. If the transaction settlement amounts or Reserve Account are not sufficient to meet your obligations to us, we may charge or debit your Bank Account or any credit card registered in your Account for any amounts owed to us. Your failure to fully pay amounts that you owe us on demand will be a breach of this Agreement. You will be liable for our costs associated with collection in addition to the amount owed, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and expenses, costs of any arbitration or court proceeding, collection agency fees, and any applicable interest.
Paystand does not provide refunds. You represent to Paystand that you are the authorized account holder or an authorized user of the chosen method of payment used to pay for the paid aspects of the Services. In addition, you are responsible for providing, at your own expense, all equipment necessary to use the Services, including a computer, modem, and Internet access (including payment of all fees associated with such access).
You will not impose any tax, fee, or surcharge on any transaction that a Purchaser seeks to make with an eligible payment card. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Paystand reserves the right to change its Fees. By continuing to use the Service following any such change, you consent to the change in Fees. If you do not consent, as your sole remedy, you may close your Account and cease to use the Services.
Purchasers may register with Paystand. Whether or not a Purchaser registers, however, their use of the Service is governed by the terms of this Agreement. You agree that, as a Purchaser, you are responsible for reading the full description of any good, service or other item promoted by a Merchant via the Services (“Merchandise”), including any terms and conditions applicable to the receipt of such Merchandise (“Seller Terms”), before committing to make any purchase or donation via the Services to any Merchant. When you make a purchase or donation via the Services, you enter into a legally binding contract with the applicable Merchant to complete such purchase or donation and to receive any Merchandise subject to the Seller Terms. You agree to look solely to the applicable Merchant to resolve all questions and disputes regarding any purchases or donations you make to a Merchant via the Services. Paystand is not responsible for resolving any disputes between Purchasers and Merchants.
Prohibited Activities; Compliance; Restrictions
In connection with your use of the Paystand Services, you agree at all times to comply with Paystand’s Acceptable Use Policy which is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. Paystand reserves the right to terminate your account and block or prevent future access to, and use of, the Paystand Services for any violation of these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy.
The Networks have established the Network Regulations and the ACH has established guidelines, bylaws, rules, and regulations (the “ACH Rules”). You are required to comply with all Network Regulations and ACH Rules that are applicable to Merchants. You can review portions of the Network Regulations at Visa and MasterCard. The Networks and the ACH reserve the right to amend the Network Regulations and/or the ACH Rules, as applicable, at any time.
You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy and security of your Account access credentials and for any use of or action taken thereunder. You shall: (a) maintain the security of your Account by not sharing your password with others and restricting access to your Account on your computer or mobile device; (b) promptly notify Paystand if you discover or otherwise suspect any security breaches related to the Paystand Service; and (c) take responsibility for all activities that occur under your Account and accept all risks of unauthorized access.
As a Merchant, you may not use the Services to post or link to any Merchandise that: (i) infringes any third-party intellectual property rights (including copyright, trademark, patent and trademark secrets) or other proprietary rights (including rights of publicity or privacy); (ii) constitutes libel or slander or is otherwise defamatory; or (iii) is counterfeited, illegal, stolen, or fraudulent. If Paystand discovers that any information or content provided by you is inaccurate, false, or misleading we reserve the right to immediately remove such information or content at our sole discretion.
If Paystand determines that you have received funds resulting from fraud or any prohibited activity (including, without limitation, any activities that violate any provision of this Agreement), those funds may be frozen, returned to the Purchaser, or seized.
In addition, if we reasonably suspect that your Account has been used for an unauthorized, illegal, or criminal purpose, you hereby authorize Paystand to share information about you, your Account, your access to the Services, and any of your transactions with law enforcement or other governmental or regulatory entities.
Responsibility for Merchant Products & Services
Merchants will provide a receipt to each Purchaser at the conclusion of each purchase transaction that includes all information required under the Network Regulations, the ACH Rules, and applicable law. You agree to provide clear and conspicuous notice to Purchasers of any Seller Terms. The Seller Terms applicable to any Merchandise will form a contract between you and any Purchaser who makes a payment or donation to you that entitles such Purchaser to any Merchandise. In delivering any Merchandise, you will not require any payments or impose any conditions that were not disclosed in the Seller Terms. You agree that any Merchandise you promote will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties.
You are solely responsible for: (a) promptly fulfilling any order for Merchandise purchased by any Purchaser in accordance with the Seller Terms; (b) collecting and remitting any value added, use, sales or other transfer taxes owed to any national, state, or local taxing authorities in connection with the sale of any Merchandise; (c) resolving any disputes with Purchasers regarding any purchased Merchandise, including any Chargebacks or refunds; and (d) any and all injuries, illnesses, damages, claims, liabilities and costs suffered by you or any Purchaser that purchases your Merchandise, which are caused in whole or in part by you or your Merchandise.
You, and you alone, are responsible for providing your products and services to Purchasers for any and all issues related to your products and services, including but not limited to issues arising from the processing of Purchasers’ cards through the Service. You agree not to disguise, hide or otherwise misrepresent the number or character of the products and services that you offer on or through your store through use of any features of the Services or Software or otherwise.
You will accept and honor all eligible cards presented for payment by Purchaser for your Merchandise in accordance with the Network Regulations, this Agreement and any other applicable operating guides or regulations. You agree that you will obtain an authorization from the Networks for each payment card transaction, as required under the Network Regulations, and will not submit a card transaction for settlement where there is a negative authorization or the card is otherwise expired. You acknowledge that the existence of an affirmative authorization from us or the Networks does not mean that a particular card transaction will not be subject to Chargeback, Reversal or Claim (as those terms are defined below) at a later date.
You hereby authorize the Bank to hold, receive, disburse and settle funds on your behalf, including generating a paper draft or electronic funds transfer to process each payment transaction that you authorize. Subject to this Agreement, you also authorize the Bank to debit or credit any payment card or other payment method we accept. In addition, you authorize the Bank to initiate electronic ACH entries to each Bank Account for which you input routing number and account number on the Site, and to initiate adjustments for any transactions credited or debited in error. You agree to be bound by the ACH Rules, and you agree that all ACH transactions that you initiate will comply with all applicable law. Your authorization will remain in full force and effect until your Account is closed or terminated.
Paystand supports most domestic and international credit, debit, prepaid or gift cards with a Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover logo. We will only process card transactions that have been authorized by the applicable Network or card issuer. We may add or remove support for certain payment cards at any time without prior notice. You agree to accept all of the cards issued by Networks that Paystand supports in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Paystand also supports payments via ACH from U.S.-based Purchasers with a U.S. bank account. At our discretion, Paystand may conduct verification checks on Purchasers to ensure account ownership and sufficient balance, and we may refuse to process payments from Purchasers at any time.
The “Payout Schedule” is the amount of time it takes for us to initiate a transfer to your designated bank account of settlement funds arising from card transactions processed through the Service. After your Bank Account has been reviewed and approved, Paystand will initiate transfer of settlement funds (net of Fees, Chargebacks, and other funds owed to us for any reason) in accordance with the Payout Schedule. The terms of your Payout Schedule will be made available to you when you login to your Account. We are not responsible for any action taken by the institution holding your bank account that may result in some or all of the funds not being credited to your bank account or not being made available to you.
Notwithstanding the Payout Schedule, we may restrict access to your funds or defer or delay settlements to a Bank Account in our sole discretion for any of the following reasons: (a) based on your perceived risk and history with Paystand (e.g., risk of incurring a Chargeback, offsets for potential losses); (b) as required by law or court order; (c) during investigation and resolution of any dispute related to your Account; (d) to secure the performance of your payment obligations under this Agreement; and/or (e) as otherwise permitted under this Agreement or applicable law. You can contact Paystand at 1-800-708-6413 to change the timing of your Payout Schedule or request an increase to your settlement limit. Upon submitting a request, you will be informed of the process and requirements for Paystand to review your Payout Schedule and/or Bank Account, and Paystand will determine whether to grant your request in its sole discretion.
You are not required to have a credit in your Account in order to use the Service. When you have a credit, your funds will be co-mingled and held by the Bank with other Merchants’ funds in one or more pooled accounts at the Bank that are established in the Bank's name for the benefit of you and other users. The Bank has sole discretion over the establishment and maintenance of any pooled account. Paystand has no ownership or control, and no right, title or interest in any account in which Merchant funds are held.
The Bank will hold any funds associated with your Account in an account separate from any account used for Paystand’s corporate funds. Paystand will not and cannot use your funds for our corporate purposes (including the granting of any security or similar interest), will not voluntarily make funds available to our creditors in the event of bankruptcy or for any other purpose, and will not knowingly permit our creditors to attach the funds. You will not receive interest or any other earnings on any funds that the Bank holds for you. As consideration for using the Service, you irrevocably assign to us or the Bank all rights and legal interests to any interest and/or other earnings or benefits that may accrue or are attributable to the Bank holding your funds in a pooled account.
If your Account is negative for an extended period of time (as determined by Paystand in our sole discretion), the Bank may close your Account and we may pursue legal action or other collection efforts.
At any time and from time to time, we may temporarily suspend or delay payments to you and/or designate an amount of funds that we must maintain in your Account (“Reserve”) to secure the performance of your payment obligations under this Agreement. We may require a Reserve for any reason, including high chargeback risk or indications of performance problems related to your use of the Service. The Reserve will be in an amount as reasonably determined by us to cover anticipated chargebacks, returns, unshipped merchandise and/or unfulfilled services or credit risk based on your processing history or such amount designated by our processor. The Reserve may be raised, reduced or removed at any time by Paystand, in its sole discretion, based on your payment history, a credit review, the amount of any arbitration award or court judgment against you in Paystand’s favor, or otherwise as Paystand or its processor may determine or require. If you do not have sufficient funds in your Reserve, we may fund the Reserve from any funding source associated with your Account, or from any other Paystand Account under your control or any funding source associated with such other Account, including but not limited to any funds (a) held as a balance in your Account, (b) due to you under this Agreement, or (c) available in your bank account, or other payment instrument registered with us.
You grant us a security interest in and lien on any and all funds held in any Reserve, and also authorize us to make any withdrawals or debits from the Reserve, without prior notice to you, to collect amounts that you owe us under this Agreement, including without limitation for any reversals of deposits or transfers made to your Paystand Account. You will 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 we hold funds in your Reserve; however, it does not apply to any funds for which the grant of a security interest would be prohibited by law. You irrevocably assign to us all rights and legal interests to any interest or other earnings that accrue or are attributable to your Reserve.
A “Chargeback” is a request that a Purchaser files directly with his or her card company or card issuing bank to invalidate a processed payment. “Claim” means a challenge to a payment that you or a Purchaser files directly with Paystand. “Reversal” means Paystand reverses the settlement of funds from a processed card transaction that you received because (a) the card transaction is invalidated by the card issuer, (b) the settlement funds were sent to you in error by (i) Paystand or the Bank; (ii) the processors, suppliers or licensors of Paystand or the Bank; or (iii) any of the respective affiliates, agents, directors and employees of any of the entities listed in (i) or (ii) above, (c) the sender of the payment did not have authorization to send the payment (for example: the Purchaser used a card that did not belong to the Purchaser), (d) you received the payment for activities that violated this Agreement or any other Paystand agreement, or (e) Paystand decided a Claim against you.
You may be subject to a Chargeback (i.e., the amount of a payment may be charged back to you) in the event of a Claim or Reversal, or if the payment (1) was not authorized or we have any reason to believe that the transaction was not authorized, or (2) is unlawful, suspicious, or in violation of the terms of this Agreement. You are responsible for all Chargebacks, whether or not the Chargeback complies with the Network Regulations.
You owe us and will immediately pay us the amount of any Chargeback and any associated Fees, fines, or penalties assessed by the Bank, our processor, the Networks, or the ACH. If you do not have sufficient funds in your Account, then we may withhold and/or offset any funds available to you in accordance with the Fees section above. You understand that if you have pending Chargebacks, we or the Bank may delay payouts to you.
Further, if we reasonably believe that a Chargeback is likely with respect to any transaction, the Bank may withhold the amount of the potential Chargeback from payments otherwise due to you under this Agreement until such time that: (I) a Chargeback is assessed due to a Purchaser's complaint, in which case the Bank will retain and refund the funds; (II) the period of time under applicable law or regulation by which the Purchaser may dispute that transaction has expired; or (III) we determine in our sole discretion that a Chargeback on the transaction will not occur.
If we determine that you are incurring an excessive amount of Chargebacks, Paystand or the Bank may establish controls or conditions governing your Account, including without limitation, by (A) assessing additional Fees, (B) creating a Reserve in an amount reasonably determined by us to cover anticipated Chargebacks and related Fees, (C) delaying payouts, and (D) terminating or suspending the Service or closing your Account.
You agree to assist us when requested and otherwise cooperate fully, at your expense, with any investigation of any of your transactions processed through the Service, until such investigation is completed. To that end, you permit us to share information about a Chargeback with the Bank, the Purchaser, the Purchaser's financial institution, and your financial institution 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 the reserved funds to you. If a Chargeback dispute is not resolved in your favor by the Networks or issuing bank or you choose not to contest the Chargeback, we may recover the Chargeback amount and any associated Fees as described in this Agreement. You acknowledge that your failure to assist us in a timely manner when investigating a transaction, including providing necessary documentation promptly upon our request, may result in an irreversible Chargeback. We reserve the right, upon notice to you, to charge a Fee for mediating and/or investigating Chargeback disputes.
Transactions will be designated as Pending, Complete, Failed or Cancelled.
“Pending” means that a transaction is currently undergoing review by the Bank and may not be completed or settled, at the Bank's sole discretion. “Pending” may also indicate that the transaction is awaiting account confirmation or settlement from a third party.
“Completed” means that a transaction has cleared and the funds are available in the Merchant's Account. If Paystand determines that the transaction is related to a restricted or prohibited business or activity or that the transaction is the result of fraudulent activity, Paystand may reverse or refund the transaction at any time.
“Cancelled” means that a transaction has been stopped or reversed. This could be due to inaccurate or incomplete information about your Account, our inability to validate the legitimacy of a payment, Purchaser, or Merchant, or another reason. You may contact Paystand at 1-800-708-6413 for more information. Although payments are cancelled, the removal of an authorization on a Purchaser credit card or a return of funds to a Purchaser bank account may not be immediate, and Paystand cannot guarantee availability within a specific timeframe.
“Failed” means that a transaction could not be processed due to inaccurate Account information, insufficient funds, or another transaction-related reason.
Upon the release of transaction information by Paystand, a Purchaser will be debited or charged by the Bank. You agree that the Purchaser's obligation to you is treated as paid at the time of (i) the release of this transaction information when a transaction is designated as “Complete”; and (ii) the related initiation of processing by the Bank. After the initiation of processing by the Bank, you agree not to attempt to collect or otherwise seek payment from the Purchaser, because you agree that Purchaser's obligation to you will have been conclusively discharged. Merchant agrees that the Purchaser is a third-party beneficiary of the preceding two sentences. Transactions may remain designated as “Pending” before “Completed” if Paystand is reviewing a transaction for risk purposes. Transactions designated as “Pending” should not be treated as paid until they are designated as “Completed.”
Transactions may be disputed at any time up to 90 days from the date of transaction, regardless of designation, by the Purchaser. Disputes resolved in favor of the Purchaser may result in reversal of the disputed transaction, regardless of designation.
Paystand reserves the right to limit or restrict transaction size or volume at any time. If you would like to increase your limits, please contact us at 1-800-708-6413. Upon receiving this request, Paystand will conduct a review of your Account, and decide whether to lift or remove these limits. Paystand will consider a variety of factors in making this decision and will make this determination at its sole discretion.
You represent and warrant that you are and will continue to be in compliance with all applicable privacy laws. In addition, you represent and warrant that you have obtained and will maintain all necessary rights and consents under applicable law to (a) disclose any data that you provide to us, or (b) authorize us to collect, retain, and/or disclose any data that you provide to us, including information that we may collect from your Purchasers directly or indirectly. You represent and warrant that you will disclose, and acknowledge that you are solely responsible for disclosing, to your Purchasers that Paystand is processing credit card transactions on your behalf and may obtain data from such Purchasers.
“Cardholder Data” is information associated with a payment card, such as account number, expiration date, and CVV2. Paystand is a validated PCI Level 1 Service Provider and so is qualified to handle Cardholder Data in connection with the Service.
If you handle, transmit, or store any Cardholder Data in connection with your use of the Service, you agree to comply at all times with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (“PCI DSS”). Further, you agree to certify such compliance and provide documentation in accordance with Operating Regulations, or when asked by Paystand to do so. You also agree that you will use only PCI compliant service providers in connection with the storage, processing, or transmission of Cardholder Data. You will remove Cardholder Data from your systems, and any other place where you store it, as soon as practicable and in no event more than 24 hours after you receive an authorization decision.
You are fully responsible for the security of data (including but not limited to Cardholder Data) on your website or otherwise in your possession or control. You agree to comply with all applicable laws, Network Regulations, and rules in connection with your collection, security and dissemination of any personal, financial, or transaction information. You agree to notify Paystand immediately if you provide any third party with access (or otherwise permit, authorize, or enable such third party’s access) to any Cardholder Data.
Unless a Purchaser expressly grants you consent, you may not retain, track, monitor, store, disclose or otherwise use any data collected from such Purchaser (e.g. to send any marketing or promotional materials to such Purchaser) except in connection with the transaction in which it was given and any post-transaction activities in connection with such immediate transaction (e.g., a Chargeback).
We have implemented technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use your personal information for improper purposes.

We or the Bank may hold your funds for any of the reasons described in this Agreement. If you are later determined to be entitled to some or all of the funds, the Bank will then release those funds to you.

In addition, the Bank or any Network may terminate your Account at any time and for any reason, including, without limitation, if any act or omission by you results in harm or the loss of goodwill to such Bank and/or Network.

YOU SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NEITHER PAYSTAND NOR THE BANK HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THAT ARE PAID FOR WITH THE SERVICES, AND NEITHER PAYSTAND NOR THE BANK CAN ENSURE THAT ANY PURCHASER WILL COMPLETE A TRANSACTION OR IS AUTHORIZED TO DO SO.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE DISCLAIMING ENTITIES DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE INFORMATION THEY PROVIDE OR THAT IS PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICE IS ACCURATE, RELIABLE OR CORRECT; THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS; THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE AVAILABLE AT ANY PARTICULAR TIME OR LOCATION, THAT THE SERVICE WILL FUNCTION IN AN UNINTERRUPTED MANNER OR BE SECURE; THAT ANY DEFECTS OR ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED; OR THAT THE SERVICE IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

Paystand does not provide refunds. By accepting this Agreement, you agree to submit any and all refunds and adjustments for returns of your Merchandise through the Service to the Purchaser’s payment card in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Network Rules. The Network Regulations require that you will (a) maintain a fair return, cancellation or adjustment policy; (b) disclose your return or cancellation policy to Purchasers at the time of purchase, (c) not give cash refunds to a Purchaser in connection with a payment card sale, unless required by law, and (d) not accept cash or any other item of value for preparing a payment card sale refund. Your refund policies must be the same for all payment methods.
If a Purchaser is dissatisfied with your refund policy, the Purchaser may attempt to Chargeback the payment. You may not bill or collect from any Purchaser for any purchase or payment by means of a payment card unless the Purchaser has exercised a Chargeback, you have fully paid for the charge, and you otherwise have the right to do so.
Full refunds must be for the exact dollar amount of the original transaction including tax, handling charges, and other. The refund amount may not exceed the original sale amount except by an amount equal to any reimbursements to the Purchaser for postage costs incurred for product returns. You will use best efforts to process all refunds within sixty (60) days after the original transaction date, and you acknowledge that refunds processed after that time may not be capable of being processed.
For processed refunds, Paystand will deduct the refund amount (including any applicable Fees) from (i) settlement funds owed to you from processing of other card transactions, or (ii) funds in any Reserve Account. If these funds are not sufficient, you authorize Paystand to initiate an ACH debit entry to your Bank Account in the amount necessary to complete the refund transaction to the Purchaser’s payment card. In the event the Paystand cannot access your Bank Account by means of ACH debit or otherwise offset the applicable amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, you agree to pay all funds owed to Paystand upon demand. You are solely responsible for accepting and processing returns of your Merchandise; Paystand has no responsibility or obligation for processing such returns.
Except as required by law, you are solely responsible for compiling and retaining permanent records of all transactions and other data associated with your Account, your transaction history and your use of the Service (“Books and Records”). Paystand is not responsible for maintaining any Books and Records on your behalf. You will maintain appropriate records of all card transactions for a period of at least two (2) years from the date of the transaction.
Your transaction history will be available to you when you login to your Account. Except as required by law, you are solely responsible for reconciling your transaction history with your actual card payment transactions. You agree to notify us of any discrepancies arising from such reconciliation and verification. We will investigate any reported discrepancies and attempt to rectify any errors that you or we discover. In the event you are owed money as a result of the discrepancy, we will transfer funds to your Bank Account in accordance with the applicable Payout Schedule. Your failure to notify us of any error or discrepancy in your transaction history within sixty (60) days of when it first appears on your transaction history will be deemed a waiver of any right to amounts owed to you in connection with any such error or discrepancy in processing your card payments.
If we believe that a security breach or compromise of data has occurred, we may require you to have a third-party auditor that is approved by us conduct a security audit of your systems and facilities and issue a report to be provided to us, our banking partners, and the Card Networks.
Paystand will be entitled to audit or have audited all of your Books and Records, websites, and/or premises to assure that you have the proper facilities, equipment, inventory, agreements, personnel, licenses, permits, and other capabilities required to conduct your business.

SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflicts of law rules, and the United States of America. Any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be finally settled by arbitration in San Francisco County, California, using the English language in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS. The prevailing party in the arbitration shall be entitled to receive reimbursement of its reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees and all other expenses) incurred in connection therewith. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in a court having jurisdiction or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall have the right to institute an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable relief pending a final decision by the arbitrator. For all purposes of this Agreement, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the United States Federal Courts located in the Northern District of California. Use of the Service is not authorized in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation, this section.
This Agreement is the entire agreement between you and Paystand with respect to the Service and use of the Sites, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written or electronic) between you and Paystand with respect to the Sites. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder.
You will submit all card transactions for processing no later than three (3) days from the date of authorization.
You will display all Network marks in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Networks, and will use such marks only to indicate that you accept their cards for payment.
No more than twenty percent (20%) of your total sales processed via the Service may be international card sales.
If there is no activity in your Account (including access or payment transactions) for the period of time set forth in the applicable unclaimed property laws, and you have a credit, we may notify you by sending an email to your registered email address. We may also notify you by U.S. mail. We will give you the option of keeping your Account open, withdrawing the funds, or requesting a check. If you do not respond to our notice within the time period specified in the notice, we may close your Account and the Bank will escheat your funds in accordance with applicable law.
If applicable to you, your agreement to this Agreement also binds you to the Merchant Services Agreement set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement. Please read the Merchant Services Agreement in full to see if it applies to you. By way of example only, if you receive more than $100,000 in payments from Visa or MasterCard in a twelve-month period, then the Merchant Services Agreement does apply to you. If it is applicable, the Merchant Services Agreement constitutes a legal binding contract between you, on the one hand, and VANTIV, LLC and its designated Member Bank, on the other hand.
Paystand shall not be liable for any failure to perform its obligations hereunder where such failure results from any cause beyond Paystand’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, mechanical, electronic or communications failure or degradation. This Agreement is personal to you, and is not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with Paystand’s prior written consent. Paystand may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights and obligations hereunder without consent. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of this Agreement and neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other in any respect. Merchant is solely responsible for any act or omission of any of Merchant’s employees, consultants, agents, and contractors. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs and attorneys’ fees. All notices under this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by facsimile or e-mail; or the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service.
This Merchant Services Agreement for Sub-Merchants ("Merchant Agreement") is made among VANTIV, LLC, having its principal office at 8500 Governors Hill Drive, Symmes Township, OH 45249-1384 and its designated Member Bank (collectively "Acquirer") and the "Merchant" as defined in, and in connection with, the Terms of Service between Paystand, Inc. and the Merchant (herein referred to as "Sub-merchant").

In addition, if Sub-merchant meets certain requirements under the Operation Regulations or an Association or the Operating Regulations otherwise require, Sub-merchant may be required to enter into a direct relationship with an entity that is a member of the Associations. By agreeing to the Paystand Terms of Service to which this Merchant Agreement is an exhibit (by "click through" agreement or otherwise), Sub-merchant has fulfilled this requirement, if and when applicable. However, Acquirer understands that Sub-merchant may have contracted with Paystand to obtain certain processing services and that Paystand may have agreed to be responsible to Sub-merchant for all or part of Sub-merchant's obligations contained herein.

Solid, BANKS, AND OUR AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS, SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. NEITHER Solid NOR BANK HAVE CONTROL OF, OR LIABILITY FOR, ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OFFERED BY PLATFORMS OR THAT ARE PAID FOR USING OUR SERVICES AND CANNOT ENSURE THAT ANY PLATFORM OR OTHER THIRD PARTY YOU TRANSACT WITH WILL COMPLETE THE TRANSACTION. NEITHER Solid NOR BANK REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT OUR SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, BE CONTINUOUS, UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, TIMELY, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM Solid OR THROUGH OUR SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HEREIN. NEITHER Solid NOR BANK SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS OR SYSTEM FAILURES THAT MAY AFFECT THE PROCESSING, COMPLETION, OR SETTLEMENT OF OUR SERVICE TRANSACTIONS. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY SECTION SHALL APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW IN THE APPLICABLE JURISDICTION
Solid MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES RELATING TO YOUR FUNDS OR ACCOUNT BALANCES INCLUDING FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION (“FDIC”) INSURANCE COVERAGE OR SECURITIES INVESTOR PROTECTION CORPORATION (“SPIC”) INSURANCE COVERAGE. SUCH REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES MAY BE FOUND IN THE SPECIFIC ACCOUNT AGREEMENT OR AGREEMENT WITH YOUR PLATFORM. UNLESS NOTIFIED OTHERWISE BY SUCH AGREEMENTS, YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCES MAY LOSE VALUE IN THE EVENT BANK OR BROKER DEALER ENTERS A RECEIVERSHIP.
You understand and agree we will not be held responsible for any losses or damages resulting from suspension of service due to extraordinary events or circumstances beyond our control. In such an event, Solid or Bank may suspend the services and access to your Account held by Bank or Platform for your benefit.
IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, INCIDENTAL, AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOST DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) RESULTING FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE Solid’S, BANK’S, PLATFORM’S SERVICES OR WEBSITES OR PHONE APPLICATIONS OR CONTENT THEREIN WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH STATES, OUR LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Solid and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, and suppliers (collectively “Disclaiming Entities”) from and against any third party claim, suit, demand, loss, liability, damage, action, proceeding or suits and related liabilities, damages, settlements, penalties, fines, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and other litigation expenses) arising out of or relating to (i) your breach of any provision of these Terms of Service; (ii) your actions and omissions in connection with your accounts or our services; (iii) our actions and omissions, provided that they are taken/omitted in accordance with this Terms of Service or your instructions; or (iv) your violation of any laws and regulations; or (v) your negligent or reckless act or omission or willful misconduct of your employees, contractors, or agents. This provision shall survive the termination of these Terms of Service.
Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In any arbitration arising out of or related to the Terms of Service, the arbitrators will award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with those aspects of its claims or defenses on which it prevails, and any opposing awards of costs and attorneys’ fees awards will be offset.
No class actions or similar process, and no joinder or consolidation of any claim with a claim of any other person or entity, shall be allowable in arbitration, without the written consent of both parties. The arbitrator shall have no authority to entertain any claim on behalf of a class, group, person, or entity who is not a named party to the arbitration, nor shall any arbitrator have authority to make any award for the benefit of, or against, any class, group, person, or entity who is not a named party to the arbitration. In the event that there is a dispute about whether limiting arbitration to non-class proceedings, or to the named parties, is enforceable under applicable law, then that question shall be resolved by a court rather than by an arbitrator, and to the extent, it is determined that resolution of a claim must proceed on a class basis, it shall so proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction rather than in arbitration.
The place of arbitration shall be San Francisco, CA, except to the extent, the arbitration involves Bank and/or your Account, or a third-party service provider of Solid as a party to the dispute, then Solid may in its sole discretion move the place of arbitration to the location of such arbitration proceedings to which you have previously agreed to in such agreements (See, your specific Account Agreement Arbitration sections for more information of the place of arbitration).
ARBITRATION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM IS BINDING AND NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE THAT CLAIM THROUGH A COURT. IN ARBITRATION THE PARTIES WILL NOT HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS THAT APPLY IN COURT, SUCH AS THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JUDGE OR JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE OR BE REPRESENTED IN PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT BY OTHERS SUCH AS CLASS ACTIONS OR SIMILAR PROCEEDINGS. IN ADDITION, THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY AND THE RIGHT TO APPEAL MAY ALSO BE LIMITED OR ELIMINATED IN ARBITRATION. ALL OF THESE JUDICIAL RIGHTS ARE WAIVED WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS THAT THE PARTIES ELECT TO ARBITRATE.
All claims, findings, and settlements under this “Binding Arbitration” shall be confidential information of Solid. You shall not disclose or reveal to employees, agents, Platform, or other third parties unless such information is already publicly available. Due to the unique nature of the confidential information, monetary damages may be inadequate to compensate us for your violation or threatened violation may cause irreparable injury to us and, in addition to any other remedies that may be available, in law, in equity or otherwise, we shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief against the threatened breach of confidentiality or the continuation of any such breach by you.
The Terms of Service are governed by the laws of the State of California. You agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of California except as detailed in the “Binding Arbitration” Section. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be invalid by a competent court, the invalidity of such provisions shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. Likewise, if we choose to terminate any provision in accordance with the termination provision, that termination shall not affect the termination of other provisions.
If we fail to act on or enforce, any provision in the Terms of Service, this shall not be construed as a waiver of that, or any other, provision. We will only grant waivers to specific provisions, for specific instances, in writing. The Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to this website and supersedes all previous or contemporaneous agreements. The section headings are merely provided for convenience and shall not be given any legal import. You may not assign your rights and obligations under these Terms of Service. The Terms of Service will inure to the benefit of our successors, assignees, licensees, and sublicensees.

This Business Account and Cardholder Agreement, as amended or supplemented by the attached disclosures (collectively, this “Agreement”), contains the general terms, conditions, and disclosures that apply to your Lewis & Clark Bank commercial deposit account (the “Account”) and any Card (as defined below) and constitutes an agreement between the Bank (as defined below) and you. This Agreement also includes any disclosures or notices we may provide to you related to your Account or Card(s).
References to the “Bank,” “we,” “us,” or “our” means Lewis & Clark Bank, an Oregon state-chartered bank, and our successors, affiliates, and assignees. References to “you” and “your” means the entity that holds the Account, and, as applicable, each person who has been issued a Card, is provided access to the Account, or is an authorized user of the holder of the Account. This Agreement may be supplemented or amended as set forth in Section 5(E) (Changes in Terms and Termination). Bank services and access and use of your Account may be provided to you through the website and/or smart phone application of our service provider, Solid Financial Technologies, Inc., at www.solidfi.com (the “Service Provider,” and its website and smart phone application, the “Service Provider Platform”). The Service Provider or its affiliates may offer you additional services through its Service Provider Platform, pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions between you and the Service Provider (the “Services” and such terms and conditions, the “Service Provider Terms”), and such Services are not governed by this Agreement and not offered by Bank. Please see Section 2(E) (Service Provider) for additional information.
By opening or continuing to maintain an Account with us or by accepting or using a Card, you agree to be bound by this Agreement, and all applicable agreements, disclosures, and other documents, as well as by all applicable federal or state laws, statutes, and regulations. Please keep a copy of this Agreement for your future reference.
We may decline to open an Account or issue a Card for any reason, or for no reason. We are not liable for any damages or liabilities resulting from refusal of an Account or Card relationship.
THIS AGREEMENT IS SUBJECT TO MANDATORY ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT AND A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION AND JURY PROVISION. PLEASE CAREFULLY READ SECTION 4 (ARBITRATION AND WAIVERS).
You must also agree to go paperless. This means that: (1) you must keep us supplied with your valid email address and telephone number; and (2) you must agree to accept the Lewis & Clark Bank Electronic Communication Consent, which governs entering into electronic transactions and electronic delivery of all communications.[1]
You may designate authorized users to initiate transactions on your behalf or take any action under this Agreement that you may have taken, and any action taken by an authorized user shall be fully binding on you. You may not permit an authorized user to initiate a transfer, payment order, or other transaction in the absence of proper supervision and safeguards. If you permit another person to have access to the Card or Account, this will be treated as if you authorized such use, and you will be liable for all transactions and Fees incurred by those persons. You are wholly responsible for the use of each Card and Account use according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. You are liable for all transactions made with the Card(s) or Account by your authorized user(s). You are the Card owner and are responsible for all transactions and Fees incurred by you or any authorized user(s). You may terminate the authority of any authorized user at any time by giving us prior notice of termination. To terminate access of an authorized user to a Card or Account, call the toll-free number on the back of your Card or customer service 1-800-708-6413, and you must follow-up not later than ten (10) business days with the written notification to revoke (cancel) permission for any person you previously authorized to use your Card or Account. Until we have received your written notice of such a revocation (cancelation) and have had a reasonable time to act upon the written notification of cancelation, you are responsible for all transactions and Fees incurred by you or any authorized user. If you tell us to revoke (cancel) another person’s use of your Card or Account, we may revoke (cancel) your Card and Account credentials.
Except as otherwise provided by law, you shall be liable for any loss or damage to which your negligence contributed or which resulted in unauthorized, fraudulent, or dishonest acts by your current and/or former authorized users. Such liability includes instances when a current or former authorized user effects one or more transfers, payment orders, or other transactions or improper use of security procedures to effect a transfer, payment order, or other transaction to your detriment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you are liable for all losses relating to unauthorized funds transfers that do not result solely from our negligence or intentional misconduct, unless the laws governing your Account requires a lesser liability.
Important Information About Procedures for Opening a New Account.
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires us to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each customer who opens an Account. What this means for you: When you open an Account, we will ask for your name, address, tax identification number, and other information that will allow us to identify you. Federal regulations require that you provide us with information concerning the beneficial owners of a legal entity at Account opening. We will request the name, address, date of birth, and taxpayer ID number or social security number of certain beneficial owners and a control person. We may also ask to see other identifying documents, such as a driver’s license, taxpayer identification number; passport number and country of issuance; alien identification card number; or number and country of issuance of any other government-issued document evidencing nationality or residence and bearing a photograph or similar safeguard. If, for any reason, you, any control person, or beneficial owner are unable to provide the information necessary to verify your identity, the Account may be blocked or closed, which may result in additional Fees assessed to the Account. You may also be asked to provide such information at other times (and on any qualifying account) upon request of the Bank. You shall have a continuing obligation to provide any other documentation we may request from time to time, including any information required under our customer identification program to establish your identity. If at any time we determine that the information you provided to us was false, incorrect, or of concern to the Bank, or if you refuse to provide, or delay in providing, us with the information when requested, we may close, block, restrict, or freeze any or all of your Accounts and Cards.
You represent and warrant that you have the power, and where applicable, each of your authorized users has the power, to execute and perform your obligations under this Agreement. We reserve the right to require you to furnish us with resolutions, agreements, or documents as we may reasonably request to evidence the authority of individuals to act on behalf of the Account holder(s). It is agreed that the power and authority of each person named as authorized to take action with respect to the Account shall continue in full force and effect until we receive actual written notice of revocation and have had a reasonable opportunity and period of time to act on your notice, whether the same be brought about by dissolution or termination of the Account holder or otherwise.
By requesting to or opening an Account with us, you agree that we can gather personal information about you and/or your beneficial owners from one or more consumer reporting agencies, governmental entities, and/or other third parties to determine your eligibility for an Account or Card. You also agree that we have the right to access follow-up consumer reports while your Account is open for maintenance, review, or collection purposes, or for any other permissible purpose under applicable law.
Your Account will not be considered "opened" until it is funded. This means your balance must be at least a penny. Once your Account is considered “opened,” there is no minimum balance required and no maximum balance limit. However, we may, at our sole discretion and at any time, require a minimum balance and set a maximum balance limit.
Separate and apart from its role as our servicer, the Service Provider may also offer Services to you. We are neither responsible for the provisioning of such Services nor do we make any recommendations, representations, warranties, or suggestions regarding such Services. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not have any liability in connection with the Services or Service Provider Platform and disclaim all warranties, either express or implied or statutory, including, but not limited to, any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, data (including unauthorized access), intellectual property infringement and/or lack of viruses related to the Services or Service Provider Platform. In no event shall we be liable for any losses or damages related to your use of Services or Service Provider Platform.
Not all services or features of your Card described in this Agreement are available to all persons or at all locations. Any offer of a service or feature of your Card or Account in this Agreement will be deemed void where prohibited. Use of the Card is also subject to all applicable rules and customs of any payment network, clearing house, or other association involved in transactions in addition to this Agreement. We reserve the right to limit, at our sole discretion, the provision of any such services under this Agreement to any person or in any location. We can waive or delay enforcement of any of their rights under this Agreement without losing them.
You are responsible for all transactions initiated and Fees incurred by use of the Card, including those initiated by authorized users of the Card or any person you provide the Card to. If you permit another person to have access to your Card or Account, this will be treated as if you authorized such use, and you will be liable for all transactions and Fees incurred by those persons. You are wholly responsible for the use of each Card according to the terms of this Agreement, subject to the terms herein.
If you believe your Card or PIN has been lost, stolen, or compromised, immediately call 1-800-708-6413 or the number on the back of your Card or contact Service Provider by email at support@paystand.com. You are responsible for all transactions made using your Card, until you notify us and only after we have had a reasonable opportunity and period of time to act on your notice. If you need to replace the Card for any other reason, call or send an email to support@paystand.com to request a replacement. You will be required to provide information which may include the last four digits of your Card number and knowledge of the Card transaction history.
We may refuse to issue, deactivate, revoke, suspend, or cancel your Card at any time with or without notice to you, other than as required by law. This includes deactivating or canceling your Card if it has been lost or stolen to prevent unauthorized transactions. You agree not to use your Card once it has been deactivated, revoked, suspended, or canceled. We may also limit your use of the Card, including limiting or prohibiting specific types of transactions. If you would like to cancel your Card, you may do so at any time by contacting us by emailing Service Provider at support@paystand.com. The cancellation of your Card privileges will not otherwise affect your rights and obligations under this Agreement.
We reserve the right to restrict your use of your Card within the Digital Wallet including, but not limited to (i) if your Account is not in good standing with us; (ii) if you are restricted due to limitations on your use imposed by your Digital Wallet Provider, wireless service provider, or any third party associated with your Digital Wallet; (iii) if the Digital Wallet or Digital Wallet Provider is not one that we support; or (iv) for any other reason determined by us in our sole discretion.
Your authorized user may also be permitted to add your Card to a Digital Wallet supported by another financial institution or third party, which could be used for purchases or other transactions without presenting the Card. Any such transactions are covered by this Agreement.
If your physical plastic Card is lost or stolen and your Supported Device is not lost or stolen, you may be required to add the new physical plastic Card to a Digital Wallet. If your Supported Device is lost or stolen, you will need to add your Card to a Digital Wallet on a new Supported Device. We do not recommend, endorse, or make any representation or warranty of any kind regarding the performance or operation of your Supported Device or the Digital Wallet. You are responsible for the Supported Device, including its selection, and for all issues relating to the operation, performance, and costs associated with such Supported Device. You authorize your wireless operator and/or Bank to disclose your mobile number, name, address, email, network status, customer type, customer role, billing type, account activation date, and device make and model, where provided, in accordance with your mobile operator's or our privacy policy, to allow verification of your identity and for fraud prevention purposes.
You are required to have a Supported Device in order to use your Card in a Digital Wallet. Your Digital Wallet Provider, in its sole discretion, determines which mobile device is a Supported Device that is eligible to be used with a Digital Wallet under this Agreement. Any mobile device which is unlocked in an unauthorized fashion (“jailbroken”) or otherwise altered or modified are not Supported Devices under this Agreement and are therefore not eligible to be used with any Digital Wallet under this Agreement. You acknowledge that use of any ineligible, non-supported mobile device with any Digital Wallet is expressly prohibited, constitutes a breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and is cause for us to temporarily suspend, permanently terminate, or otherwise restrict or deny your further access to, attempted use of, or use of your Card in any Digital Wallet. We will not be liable to you (or any third party or otherwise) for such suspension, restriction, or termination.
The Digital Wallet may display transaction history on your Supported Device. The transaction history does not reflect any post-authorization activities (e.g., settlement, foreign currency exchange, chargebacks, etc.). The details for your transaction history in connection with that Digital Wallet may not match the actual transaction details, including the amount that ultimately clears, settles, and posts to your Card account.
All transactions initiated by you using the Card or Digital Wallet must comply with all federal, state, and local laws, rules, and regulations applicable to you, including any applicable tax laws and regulations, and you must not use your Card through a Digital Wallet for any fraudulent undertaking or in any manner so as to interfere with the operation of a Digital Wallet.
You may remove one or more of your Cards from your Digital Wallet at any time by following the instructions in your Digital Wallet or by calling the number on the back of your Card.
You agree that we may automatically update or upgrade your Card at any time, in our sole discretion and without prior notice, we may expand, reduce, or suspend the type and/or dollar amounts of transactions allowed using your Card with a Digital Wallet.
The license granted hereunder is effective until terminated by you or us. Your rights will terminate automatically without notice from us if you fail to comply with these terms or if we terminate the use of your Card or the Digital Wallet. Upon termination of the license, you must cease all use of the Digital Wallet and delete your Card(s) from the Digital Wallet.
Before allowing a transaction, we may request you to provide us with identification, authorization, documentation, or other information that we deem necessary. We may refuse a withdrawal if you fail to comply with our request. We may tell you in advance when we are going to refuse a withdrawal request but will not be required to do so.
Subject to any limits we may impose and the terms of this Agreement, you may also withdraw funds from certain ATMs. Other third-party fees may also apply to out-of-network ATM transactions. Please refer to Section 3(A) (Debit Card) and the Fee Schedule for additional information.
We may refuse to follow any of your payment instructions if we think they are illegal or potentially harmful to us or any other person. If we follow your payment instructions, we may require other security measures to protect us from any losses we may suffer. To the greatest extent permitted by law, you agree to pay us back for any damages or losses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) that we suffer if we take an action based on your (or what appears to be your) oral, written, or electronic instructions.
We use automated systems to process transactions and then to post transactions to your Account. When we process multiple transactions for your Account on the same day, you agree that we may in our discretion determine our posting orders for the transactions and that we may credit, authorize, accept, pay, decline, or return credits, debits, and holds in any order at our option. We generally post common transaction as set forth herein. We group the different types of transactions into categories. We use several different categories for holds, credits, and debits. Most categories include more than one transaction type. After the end of the business day, our automated systems assign each transaction received for that day to a category. We generally post all transactions within a category, using the posting order or orders that apply to that category, before we post any transactions assigned to the next category.
First, we start with the balance in your Account at the beginning of the business day, subtract holds from your balance, and make any adjustments from prior days. Next, we generally add available and settled deposits and credits to your balance and then subtract debits from your balance based on the debit category. We subtract debits in a category from your balance in order from the highest to lowest dollar amount, unless specified otherwise herein. The first category of debits to be applied against your balance are certain Card and ATM transactions (e.g., Card transactions and ATM withdrawals and transfers) and associated Card Fees. The debits within this category are subtracted from your balance in date and time order our systems receive date and time information. If we make checks available to you, this category is applied next against your balance. Check posting will be in sequential order based on the check number, and for any check for which the number cannot be read, from highest to lowest amount following the posting of number legible checks. We then subtract from your balance any other types of debits in order from the highest to lowest dollar amount. Finally, we subtract from your balance most Fees (such as monthly maintenance Fees, returned item Fees, and ATM fees) in order from highest to lowest dollar amount. Some Fees may show as “processing” until the next day.
If we receive a claim against the funds in your Account, or if we know of or believe that there‘s a dispute as to the ownership or control of funds in your Account, we may, in our discretion: (1) place a hold on your Account and refuse to pay out any funds until we are satisfied that the dispute is settled; (2) close your Account and send the balance to the named account holder(s); (3) require a court order to act; or (4) take any other action we feel is necessary to protect us. We will not be liable to you for taking any such action.
We may charge your Account a Fee for each Legal Process or claim involving you, any party to your Account or your Account. You agree to pay us for Fees and expenses (including administrative expenses) that we incur in responding to any Legal Process or claim related to your Account, such as expenses for research and copying of documents. The Fees and expenses may include reasonable attorneys’ fees. We may deduct these Fees and expenses from your Account or any account you have with us without prior notice to you.
We may produce or provide access to property, including documents, that are located in or at any of our locations or facilities or at any facility of a third party holding such property or documentation on our behalf, even if the facility or location is not subject to being searched per the Legal Process.
We have no liability to you if we accept and comply with a Legal Process as provided in this Section or by law.
Statements will periodically be provided to you by email as long as your Account is active. You will not receive paper statements. You agree to notify us promptly if you do not receive your statement by the date, you normally would expect to receive it. You agree that the statements have been delivered or made available to you in a reasonable manner.
You have a duty to review your Account statements. You agree to review and to examine your receipts and Account statements and to reconcile your Account daily using reasonable care and to promptly report any discrepancy between your records and the information provided in your Account statement and any errors or problems to us. Except as provided by applicable law, you agree that we are not required to provide you with a separate notice of incoming or outgoing Wire Transfers and you should review your statement for any discrepancies, unauthorized transactions, or errors in connection with any transaction. If you choose not to receive your statements, you remain responsible to review and report any errors. If you are absent from your Account mailing address, you are responsible to make arrangements to have your statements reviewed for errors and report them in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
You agree that if you fail to report any unauthorized signatures, alterations, or forgeries in your account within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available, you cannot assert a claim against us on any items in that statement, and as between you and us, the loss will be entirely yours. This 60-day limitation is without regard to whether we used ordinary care. In addition to your duty to review your statements for unauthorized signatures, alterations, and forgeries, you agree to examine your statement with reasonable promptness for any other error such as an encoding error. In addition, if you receive or we make available either your items or images of your items, you must examine them for any unauthorized or missing endorsements or any other problems. You agree that the time you have to examine your statement and items and report to us will depend on the circumstances. However, this time period will not exceed 60 days. Failure to examine your statement and items and report any errors to us within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available precludes you from asserting a claim against us for any errors on items identified in that statement and, as between you and us, the loss will be entirely yours.
You further agree that if you fail to report any unauthorized transaction on your statement to us within 10 days from when the statement is postmarked or otherwise made available to you, whichever is earlier, we will not be required to pay interest on any unauthorized, erroneous, or other Wire Transfer or Funds Transfer request or on any refund to which you may be entitled and you will also be liable to us for any damages or losses we may incur as a result of your failure to notify us within the time period stated in this Section. Because you are in the best position to discover an unauthorized transaction, you agree that, without regard to care or lack of care by either you or Bank, we will not be liable for any unauthorized transaction reflected on your statement that is not reported within 60 days of the statement issuance date, subject to applicable law and payment network rules. We will only credit your account for errors or problems as required by law. Email us immediately with errors or questions about electronic transfers at support@paystand.com. If you tell us orally, you must submit your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days. If you provide us with timely notice of an error or problem in your periodic statement, we will investigate the matter and notify you of the results within a reasonable amount of time. The exact time will depend on the specific circumstances of the error or problem. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
We reserve the right to monitor all Account activity for inappropriate use. We may also suspend or close your Account or suspend or terminate your Card at our discretion and for any reason with or without notice. This includes if we believe you are using your Account or Card for fraudulent or illegal purposes or in violation of law or regulation, this Agreement, any other agreement you may have with us or Service Provider, or if you otherwise present undue risk to us or Service Provider. We are not responsible to you for any damages you may suffer as a result of the closure or suspension of your Account. If we close your Account, all collected funds (less any amounts due to us or for debits in process) will be transferred to your Linked Account. Alternatively, we may, at our discretion, mail you a check for the available balance in your Account. Written notice that the Account has been closed, to the extent required by law, and a check, if any, will be sent to any address shown on our records for you, or if the Account is a jointly owned, to any account owner to whom we elect to send it, or the email address we have on file for the Account. Once we have closed your Account, you agree that we can assess any Fees or service charges otherwise applicable against any remaining balance in your Account. We are not responsible to you for any damages you may suffer as a result of your Account being closed. If you attempt to make a deposit to an Account we closed, we may collect the deposit and set-off your indebtedness to us. We reserve the right not to return funds to you if your Account balance is less than $10.00. The closure of your Account or termination of this Agreement does not impact any right or obligation that arose prior to closure or termination, or any right or obligation that, by its nature, should survive termination (including, but not limited to, any indemnification obligation by you, our limitations of liability, and any terms governing arbitration).
State laws (called "escheat" or unclaimed property laws) require us to close your Account and transfer your money to the state if your Account is dormant for a period of time as defined by your state of residence. State and federal law and our policy govern when your Account is considered dormant. Your Account is usually considered dormant if you have not accessed your Account, communicated to us about your Account or otherwise shown an interest in your Account within the period of time specified under applicable law. Each state has varying laws as to when an account is subject to escheatment and we may be required to send the balance in your Account to the state of your last known address or, if not in the U.S., the state in which we reside. We will make all reasonable efforts to contact you if required by applicable law before transferring the remaining balance of your Account to the applicable state. After we surrender the funds to the state, we have no further liability to you for those funds and you must apply to the appropriate state agency to reclaim your funds. You can avoid the transfer of your money to the state simply by signing into your Account, transacting periodically, or contacting us, or replying to any abandoned property correspondence. If your Account becomes dormant, you may no longer receive statements, but you can still view your Account online.
All payment orders and your transfer requests submitted to us through the Service Provider Platform shall be considered authorized by you. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, you shall be entitled to deem any person having knowledge of any Security Procedure to be an authorized user.
If you believe or suspect that any such information or instructions have been compromised, known, or accessed by any unauthorized person, you agree to notify us immediately, but in no event longer than one (1) business day, by calling us at 1-800-708-6413 followed by written confirmation to 1800 Green Hills Road, Suite 200, Scotts Valley, CA 95066 or by email to support@paystand.com. The occurrence of unauthorized access will not affect any payment order or transfer request made, the processing of a file transmission, transfer requests or payment orders processed, in compliance with the Security Procedures prior to receipt of such notification and within a reasonable time period to prevent unauthorized payment or transfer. You warrant that no individual will be allowed to initiate transfer requests or payment orders in the absence of proper supervision and safeguards and agree to maintain the confidentiality of Security Procedures and any passwords, codes, security devices, and related instructions provided by us in connection with the Security Procedures and prevent the disclosure of the same except on a need to know basis. If you believe or suspect that any such information or Security Procedures are accessed by unauthorized persons, you will notify us immediately followed by written confirmation. You agree to defend all claims and indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any loss, damages, or expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, caused by your failure or the failure of your employees or agents, to keep the Security Procedures confidential and secure. The occurrence of unauthorized access will not affect any payment or transfer made in good faith by us prior to receipt of notification and within a reasonable time period to prevent unauthorized transfers.
If a transfer request (or a request for cancellation or amendment of a transfer request) or payment order (or a request for cancellation or amendment of a payment order) received by us purports to have been transmitted or authorized by you, it will be deemed effective as your transfer request or payment order and you shall be obligated to pay us the amount of such related payment order or transfer request even though the transfer request or payment order (or request for cancellation or amendment of the same) was not authorized by you so long as we acted in compliance with the Security Procedures. You shall examine the Account(s) each business day to review each transfer request or payment order and notify us immediately (and confirm such notice promptly in writing) of any unauthorized, incorrect, or delayed transfer request or payment order reflected in such information. You acknowledge that time is of the essence in reviewing the Account(s) and reporting discrepancies in order to prevent or limit loss by reason of unauthorized, erroneous, or delayed transfers or payment orders, and compliance with this requirement is a condition precedent to any recovery against us for any alleged error or negligence in connection with such transfer request or payment order. If a transfer request (or request for cancellation or amendment of a transfer request) or payment order (or request for cancellation or amendment of a payment order) received by us was transmitted or authorized by you, you shall be obligated to pay the amount of the associated payment order or transfer requests as provided herein, whether or not we complied with the Security Procedures and whether or not that transfer request or payment order was erroneous in any respect or that error would have been detected if we had complied with such Security Procedures. For the avoidance of doubt, you further agree that any transfer request or payment order that is acted upon in good faith by us in compliance with these Security Procedures, whether or not in fact authorized by you, shall constitute an authorized transfer request or payment order.
In the event of a breach of the Security Procedure, you agree to assist us in determining the manner and source of the breach. Such assistance shall include, but shall not be limited to, providing us or our agent access to your hard drive, storage media and devices, systems, and any other equipment or device that was used in breach of the Security Procedure. You further agree to provide to us any analysis of such equipment, device, or software or any report of such analysis performed by you, your agents, law enforcement agencies, or any other third party. Failure of you to assist us shall be an admission by you that the breach of the Security Procedure was caused by a person who obtained access to transmitting facilities of you or who obtained information facilitating the breach of the Security Procedure from you and not from a source controlled by us.
We reserve the right to modify, amend, supplement, or cancel any or all Security Procedures at any time and from time to time in our discretion. We will endeavor to give you reasonable notice of any change in Security Procedures; provided that we may make any change in Security Procedures without advance notice to you if we, in our judgment and discretion, believe such change to be necessary or desirable to protect the security of our systems and assets. Your use of any services described herein, including issuance of a transfer request or payment order, after any change in Security Procedures shall constitute your agreement to the change and your agreement that the applicable Security Procedures, as changed, are commercially reasonable and adequate for the purposes intended.
THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL HAVE A SUBSTANTIAL IMPACT ON HOW LEGAL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US ARE RESOLVED. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION IV (ARBITRATION AND WAIVERS) CAREFULLY. For a dispute subject to arbitration, neither you nor we will have the right to: (A) have a court or a jury decide the dispute; (B) engage in information-gathering (discovery) to the same extent as in court; (C) participate in a class action in court or in class arbitration; or (D) join or consolidate a claim with claims of any other persons. Arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court.
Judgment upon the arbitrator’s award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding, except for any right of appeal provided by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code) (“FAA”). However, if the amount of the claim exceeds $25,000 or involves a request for injunctive or declaratory relief that could foreseeably involve a cost or benefit to either party exceeding $25,000, any party can, within thirty (30) days after the entry of the award by the arbitrator, appeal the award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the forum. The panel shall reconsider anew all factual and legal issues, following the same rules of procedure and decide by majority vote. Reference in this Section 4 (Arbitration and Waivers) to “the arbitrator” shall mean the panel if an appeal of the arbitrator’s decision has been taken.
In the event that JAMS, or the AAA is unable to handle the dispute for any reason, then the matter shall be arbitrated instead by a neutral arbitrator selected by agreement of the parties pursuant to the AAA rules of procedure; or, if the parties cannot agree, selected by a court in accordance with the FAA. To the extent that there is any variance between the selected forum’s rules and this Section 4 (Arbitration and Waivers), this Section 4 (Arbitration and Waivers) shall control.
If you initiate the arbitration, you must notify us in writing at 1800 Green Hills Road, Suite 200, Scotts Valley, CA 95066. If we initiate the arbitration, we will notify you in writing at your last known address in our file.
You understand, acknowledge, and agree that the use and disclosure of any information provided by you directly to a Digital Wallet provider, the applicable payment network branded on your Card, the Service Provider, or other third parties (including their respective agents, representatives, affiliates, and service providers) will permit such parties to have access to certain details of your transactions made with your Account, Card, or Digital Wallet and such use, accesses, and disclosure will be governed by such party's privacy policy and not our privacy policy, and, to the greatest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for the use of your information by any such parties. You understand that the information that is provided to or held by a Digital Wallet Provider or other third parties in relation to your Account, Card, or Digital Wallet is outside of our control. Any information you provide to a Digital Wallet Provider or any other third party through your use of your Card with the Digital Wallet or that is accessed or collected by your Digital Wallet Provider, is subject to the Digital Wallet Provider’s separate agreement with you, including that party’s privacy policy.
We periodically collect and use technical data and related information (for example, we may collect technical information about your Supported Device to facilitate the updates to our services).
Push notifications can be displayed on a locked or inactive device screen. Since it is possible to view this information even when your Supported Device is locked, you must maintain physical control over your Supported Device and/or turn off push notifications to prevent potential unauthorized use.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT THE DIGITAL WALLET IS BEING PROVIDED TO YOU BY THE APPLICABLE DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER AND OTHER THIRD PARTIES THAT SUPPORT SUCH DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER. YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE USE OF ANY CARD IN A DIGITAL WALLET IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WE NEITHER CONTROL NOR ENDORSE AND ARE NEITHER RESPONSIBLE NOR LIABLE FOR: (A) ANY DIGITAL WALLET OR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PROVIDED BY ANY DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER; (B) ANY ACT OR OMISSION OF A DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER OR ANY PARTY SUPPORTING A DIGITAL WALLET OR ANY MERCHANT; (C) SUPPORTED DEVICES, INCLUDING THEIR OPERATION; OR (D) ANY ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, INTEGRITY, QUALITY, LEGALITY, USEFULNESS, OR SAFETY OF ANY THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION OR DIGITAL WALLET. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE FUNCTIONS CONTAINED IN, OR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PROVIDED OR PERFORMED BY ANY DIGITAL WALLET OR DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER (INCLUDING ANY THIRD PARTY PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR ANY DIGITAL WALLET OR DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER) WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, THAT THE OPERATION OR AVAILABILITY OF DIGITAL WALLET OR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OF A DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS IN THE DIGITAL WALLET OR WITH THE DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER’S SERVICES OR PRODUCTS WILL BE CORRECTED. ACCESS, USE, AND MAINTENANCE OF YOUR CARD IN A DIGITAL WALLET WILL DEPEND ON THE DIGITAL WALLET AND THE PAYMENT CARD NETWORKS AND WIRELESS CARRIERS. WE DO NOT OPERATE OR CONTROL THE DIGITAL WALLET OR SUCH PAYMENT CARD NETWORKS OR WIRELESS CARRIERS. WE WILL NOT BE LIABILE FOR ANY CIRCUMSTANCES THAT INTERRUPT, PREVENT, OR OTHERWISE AFFECT THE FUNCTIONING OF ANY CARD WITH A DIGITAL WALLET OR DIGITAL WALLET SERVICE OR YOUR WIRELESS SERVICE, COMMUNICATIONS, NETWORK DELAYS, LIMITATIONS ON YOUR WIRELESS COVERAGE, SYSTEM OUTAGES, OR INTERRUPTIONS OF YOUR WIRELESS CONNECTION. WE DISCLAIM ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DIGITAL WALLET OR ANY WIRELESS SERVICE USED TO ACCESS, USE, OR MAINTAIN YOUR CARD IN ANY DIGITAL WALLET.
USE OF YOUR CARD WITH A DIGITAL WALLET INVOLVES THE ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION THROUGH THIRD-PARTY CONNECTIONS. BECAUSE WE DO NOT OPERATE OR CONTROL THESE CONNECTIONS, WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THE PRIVACY OR SECURITY OF THESE DATA TRANSMISSIONS. ADDITIONALLY, YOUR SUPPORTED DEVICE’S BROWSER IS GENERALLY PRE-CONFIGURED BY YOUR WIRELESS CARRIER. YOU SHOULD CHECK WITH YOUR DIGITAL WALLET PROVIDER AND YOUR WIRELESS CARRIER FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THEIR PRIVACY AND SECURITY PRACTICES. FOR PERSONAL OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION SENT TO OR FROM US OVER THE INTERNET FROM YOUR SUPPORTED DEVICE, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT SUCH CONNECTIONS TO "SECURE SESSIONS" THAT HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED USING TRANSPORTATION LAYER SECURITY OR OTHER SECURITY STANDARDS WE, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION, SELECT. WE MAKE NO GUARANTEES ABOUT THE INFORMATION SHOWN IN THE DIGITAL WALLET SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE IT CONTAINS AND MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR GUARANTEES REGARDING THE SAME.
YOU AGREE THAT THE AMOUNT OF ANY CLAIM YOU HAVE AGAINST US IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCOUNT OR TRANSACTION WITH US, WHETHER BROUGHT AS A WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE, WRONGFUL DISHONOR, OR OTHER ACTION, IS SUBJECT TO REDUCTION TO THE EXTENT THAT: (1) NEGLIGENCE OR FAILURE TO USE REASONABLE CARE ON YOUR PART, OR ON THE PART OF ANY OF YOUR AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES, CONTRIBUTED TO THE LOSS WHICH IS THE BASIS OF YOUR CLAIM; AND (2) DAMAGES COULD NOT BE AVOIDED BY OUR USE OF ORDINARY CARE.
ANY LOSS RECOVERY YOU OBTAIN FROM THIRD PARTIES ON A PARTICULAR CLAIM WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF ANY OBLIGATIONS WE MAY HAVE TO YOU ON THAT CLAIM AND YOU WILL IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY US OF ANY SUCH RECOVERY. YOU AGREE TO PURSUE ALL RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE UNDER ANY INSURANCE POLICY YOU MAINTAIN IN CONNECTION WTH ANY LOSS AND TO PROVIDE US INFORMATION REGARDING COVERAGE. OUR LIABILITY WILL BE REDUCED BY THE AMOUNT OF ANY INSURANCE PROCEEDS YOU RECEIVE OR ARE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOSS. IF WE REIMBURSE YOU FOR A LOSS COVERED BY INSURANCE, YOU AGREE TO ASSIGN US YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THE INSURANCE TO THE EXTENT OF YOUR REIMBURSEMENT.
If you are subject to backup withholding, you may not access or use the Account. The Internal Revenue Code requires most recipients of dividends, interest, or other payments to give Taxpayer Identification Numbers to payors who must report payments to the Internal Revenue Service. The Internal Revenue Service uses the numbers for identification purposes and to verify the accuracy of your tax return.
If you fail to furnish a correct Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), you may be subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless such failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect. If you fail to furnish a TIN, the Bank may refuse to open your Account. The Bank may close an Account which was opened without a TIN and you fail to subsequently provide a TIN.
If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no imposition of backup withholding, you may be subject to a penalty of $500. Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment. If you disclose or use a TIN in violation of federal law, you may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.
If you submit a Wire Transfer request to us, we will process it on the same business day (or next business day if the request is not made on a business day) so long as we receive the request no later than the Cut-Off Time, subject to verification in accordance with the security procedures described in this Section. If it is received after the Cut-Off Time and verified through our security procedures, the Wire Transfer request may be processed the next business day. We may treat any Wire Transfer request received at or after our Cut-Off Time as if it was received that business day, or we may treat it as if it were received at the opening of the next business day, in our sole and absolute discretion. If we determine, in our sole discretion, not to honor, execute, or accept a Wire Transfer request, we may notify you, but are not obligated to and we shall have no liability for delay or failure to do so. We will also use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you promptly if a Wire Transfer is returned to us after its execution but shall have no liability by reason of our delay or failure to do so. We shall have no obligation to resend a Wire Transfer if we complied with the original Wire Transfer request and such Wire Transfer was returned to us.
You authorize us to debit or credit your Account immediately for an amount equal to the Wire Transfer request and any applicable Fees related to such Wire Transfer request. Your Wire Transfer requests may involve the transfer of funds from your Account to another account you have with us, to an account with any other financial institution, or to a third party or account of a third party maintained with us or with any other financial institution. You shall ensure sufficient funds on deposit in the Account with us for implementation of each Wire Transfer request. We will have no obligation to honor any Wire Transfer request which exceeds the balance of your immediately collected funds; provided, however, that you shall be liable for any amount which we elect to Wire Transfer in excess of such balance. You agree that we are authorized to debit the Account immediately for the Wire Transfer request, and you further agree that we are authorized to charge your Account a service Fee for each Wire Transfer request you place.
Wire Transfers to or from your Account will be governed by the rules of the funds transfer system(s) through which the transfers are made, including Fedwire, the National Automated Clearing House Association, the Electronic Check Clearing House Organization, any regional association (each an ACH), the Clearing House Interbank Payments System (CHIPS), the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) and the RTP system (“RTP System”) and UCC Article 4A. We are under no obligation to honor, in whole or in part, any payment order or other instruction that could result in our contravention of applicable law, including, without limitation, requirements of the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”). We are under no obligation to follow any Wire Transfer request or initiate any Wire Transfer, nor are we obligated to follow instructions cancelling or amending any Wire Transfer request, that do not afford us sufficient time to verify the authenticity of the instructions.
Once we receive a Wire Transfer request, it may not be able to be cancelled or amended. However, at our discretion, we may use reasonable efforts to act on any request for cancellation or amendment, provided that the method by which we are notified of a request for cancellation or amendment complies with the Security Procedures. However, we shall have no liability if such cancellation or amendment is not effected. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any and all liabilities, claims, damages, costs, and expenses we may incur in attempting to cancel or amend the Wire Transfer. Any cancellation or amendment of a Wire Transfer by us shall relieve us of any obligation to act on the original Wire Transfer request.
It is your responsibility to ensure that we are provided with accurate, clear, and correct Wire Transfer requests and instructions, including beneficiary name and account number, in the manner and format prescribed by us, and that such Wire Transfer requests are given only by you. Further, you acknowledge that a failure to comply strictly with such procedures may delay or prevent implementation of Wire Transfer request(s) or result in transfers from your Account to unintended beneficiaries. You are liable for any incorrect, inaccurate, or unclear information. If you give us the name and account number of a beneficiary, we and other financial institutions may process the payment order based on the account number alone, even though the number may identify a person other than the beneficiary named. Any errors in the information, including misidentification of beneficiary(ies), incorrect or inconsistent account names and numbers, identifying number of intermediary bank or beneficiary bank, and misspellings, are your responsibility. We will not be liable if the beneficiary’s financial institution does not accept the Wire Transfer or accepts the Wire Transfer and then places the funds in a suspense or holding account because of the discrepancy. Unless applicable law requires otherwise, we will not be liable to you or any other person for any losses resulting from the beneficiary’s financial institution accepting and posting any Wire Transfer to an incorrect account, whether based on your Wire Transfer request or for other reasons unrelated directly to a material breach of this Agreement by us. Incorrect, unclear, or incomplete Wire Transfer requests may delay or prevent the processing of your Wire Transfer request or may result in transfers from your Account to unintended beneficiaries. If a Wire Transfer request does not designate the beneficiary’s financial institution, we may, in our discretion (i) accept the Wire Transfer request and make payment to any financial institution at which we have reason to believe the beneficiary maintains an account, or (ii) not accept the Wire Transfer request and seek further direction from you. In either of the foregoing situations, unless applicable law requires otherwise, we will not be liable for losses resulting from your failure to properly identify the financial institution where the beneficiary maintains an account. If a Wire Transfer request does not specify routing instructions, you will be deemed to have instructed us to send the wire through such correspondents as we determine in our sole discretion. You acknowledge that any administrative messages or comments conveyed with any Wire Transfer request shall be for its own internal reference and shall not be binding on us or alter the pertinent details of the Wire Transfer request. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, we are not required to accept Wire Transfer requests from you or any person acting or purporting to act on your behalf in a representative or fiduciary capacity, and we may refuse to accept any Wire Transfer requests in our sole and absolute discretion. We may also reject any incoming wire transfer. If we determine, in our sole discretion, not to honor, execute or accept a Wire Transfer request, we are under no obligation to inform you and shall not be liable for any failure to inform you. A Wire Transfer request is considered accepted by us when we execute it.
When a deposit is made to your Account, the funds may not be available immediately. This Section 8 (Deposit Availability Disclosure) describes when funds will be made available to you.
