4. General Rules and Descriptions.

Credit Reporting & Registration Applications. Licensee authorizes Payzer to obtain from time to time a credit report and/or to otherwise make credit or other background inquiries as Payzer deems appropriate to evaluate registration for or continued use of the Services. Payzer, in its sole and absolute discretion, may refuse to approve or may terminate existing registrations for the Services with or without cause or notice, other than any notice required by applicable law not waived herein. Payzer may require additional information as a condition of continued use of the Services, or to assist in determining whether to permit continued use of the Services.

Accepting Payments. When Licensee receives payments from other users using Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or American Express cards, or using Payzer check acceptance (ACH and Mobile Check Deposit), Payzer or its partners will charge the fees as defined at https://www.payzer.com/pricing/. Licensee authorizes Payzer or its partners to debit its Bank Account provided during registration for such fees. Payzer processes Payment Transactions on behalf of the Payee, as the agent of the Payee, through accepted credit card, debit card, and ACH networks.

Onboarding & Data Loading. The most time sensitive component of onboarding is loading your data. Our commitment is to load your data and onboard you within the “Expected Time” as outlined below (also see Payzer Onboarding & Billing Practices). If we do not, we will not charge you a monthly license fee beyond the Expected Time until data loading is complete, for as long as you remain committed. The “Expected Time” for Data Loading is defined based on the complexity of your data load. If you require a Standard Data Load, you should plan on making 2 normal monthly license payments prior to being able to adopt the system. If you require a Custom Data Load, we will let you know how much extra work and time is needed to get your data loaded. Generally, in the case of a custom load, you should plan on making 3 normal monthly license payments prior to system adoption. You will be notified within 5 business days of providing your data to us if your data requires a Custom Data Load.

PCI Compliance. Payzer does not charge a fee for PCI Compliance. However, each year Licensee is required by the payment networks to complete a PCI compliance self-assessment survey. Payzer provides access to a third-party system to complete a PCI self-assessment survey (at no cost). Failure to complete the survey within three months of the Effective Date and on an annual basis thereafter will result in the acquiring bank charging Licensee a $19.99 monthly non-compliance fee.

Making Payments with Registered Payment Accounts. Payzer does not charge any fees to make payments using Payzer Debit Card(s) or other Payment Accounts that Licensee chooses to register.

Payment of Fees and Returned items. Payzer has the right to debit Licensee’s Payzer Debit Card(s) for any fees owed to Payzer, or to cover any returned Payment Transactions. If the Payzer Debit Card(s) does not have sufficient funds, Licensee agrees to allow Payzer to debit other Payment Accounts that it has registered.

Access to Software Services and Fees. Access to this service is subject to approval by Payzer and its partners. Payzer or its partners will charge the fees as defined during registration. Licensee authorizes Payzer or its partners to debit its Bank account provided during registration for such fees, and to pay fees and other obligations arising from use of the Services as described in this Agreement.

Disputes. Payzer will not be a party to or otherwise assist in any dispute that may arise between Licensee and a third party with respect to a Payment Transaction. Licensee releases Payzer and its affiliates, agents, contractors, officers, and employees (collectively, the “Payzer Parties”), from all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) arising out of or in any way connected with a dispute, and agrees to fully indemnify and hold Payzer and the Payzer Parties harmless therefrom. Licensee agrees that it will not involve Payzer in any litigation or other dispute arising out of or related to any transaction, agreement, or arrangement with any business or other third party in connection with the Services. If it attempts to do so, (i) Licensee shall pay all costs and attorneys’ fees of Payzer and the Payzer Parties and shall provide indemnification as set forth below, and (ii) the jurisdiction for any such litigation or dispute shall be limited as set forth below.

RefundsExcept as set forth in this Agreement, all Payment Transactions processed through the Services are non-refundable and irreversible.

Payzer Is Not a Banking Institution. Payzer processes Payment Transactions through the Services as an agent of and on behalf of businesses utilizing the Services. Payzer is not a bank or other chartered depository institution. Payzer will not take possession of or otherwise hold funds in connection with the processing of Payment Transactions.

Making Payments to other Payzer Software UsersLicensee may use the Services to make payments to other Payzer Software users by using a Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or American Express cards, Payzer Debit Cards, or an external Bank Account. Licensee authorizes Payzer to route Payment Transactions through the external payment networks, ACH network, or utilize in-network transfers between Payzer Debit Cards, to make payments that Licensee has authorized. Licensee may also transfer funds between its Payzer Debit Cards, and transfer funds between its Payzer Debit Cards and its Bank Account. To make payments, Licensee must register and use a Payment Account, or use a Payzer Debit Card(s) which will be automatically registered for Licensee use. Licensee authorizes Payzer to confirm that the applicable Payment Account is in good standing with the appropriate financial institution including, but not limited to, by submitting a request for a payment authorization and/or a low dollar credit and/or debit to the Payment Account, in accordance with applicable laws and the Rules. When Licensee chooses to make a payment with the Services, it authorizes the applicable Payee to submit charges (and, in the case of refunds, credits) to the registered Payment Account. Payzer will assist the Payee in accessing the Payment Account to process the Payment Transaction. Licensee is responsible for any charges and related fees that may be imposed as a result of use of a Payment Account. Payzer may delay payment processing of suspicious Payment Transactions or attempted Payment Transactions which may involve fraud or misconduct, or violate applicable law, this Agreement, the Rules, or other applicable Payzer policies, as determined in Payzer’s sole and absolute discretion. Licensee authorizes the charge or debit to its Payment Account, by Payzer as agent of the Payee, as necessary to complete processing of a Payment Transaction. Licensee also authorizes the crediting to the Payment Account, by Payzer as agent of the Payee, in connection with reversals, refunds, or adjustments. Payzer is not a party to a Payment Transaction for the purchase of products and services, and Payzer is not a buyer or seller in connection with any Payment Transaction.

Permissible Payment Transactions. Licensee may only use the Services to process a Payment Transaction for products and services that are purchased from a business through a legitimate, bona fide sale of the products and services. The Services may not be used to process a Payment Transaction, or otherwise transfer money between Licensee and a business, that is unrelated to a purchase of a product or service. The Services may not be used to receive cash advances from anyone or to facilitate the purchase of cash equivalents (prepaid cards, money orders, gift certificates, etc.). Licensee may not use the Services to process Payment Transactions in connection with the sale or exchange of any illegal products or services or any other underlying illegal transaction. Licensee agrees that it will not use the Services to process Payment Transactions for any products or services that violate this Agreement, the Rules, or applicable law.
