2. Establishing and Maintaining Payment Methods.

2.2. Linked Account. You may establish and maintain a Linked Account to be used in connection with the Moov Services.

When you use your Linked Account as the funding source for a Transaction, you hereby acknowledge and agree that you are authorizing and allowing Moov to initiate a transfer from your Linked Account. For these Transactions, Moov will make electronic transfers from your Linked Account in the amount you authorize through your Moov Account. You authorize Moov to try any transfer again if the initial transfer is rejected by the financial institution that holds your Linked Account for any reason. YOU SHOULD CONFIRM THAT YOUR LINKED ACCOUNT CONTAINS SUFFICIENT FUNDS TO COVER ANY TRANSACTION BEFORE MAKING A PAYMENT IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH TRANSACTION.

2.3. Authorization. You hereby authorize Moov and any applicable FI Partner to electronically debit and credit your Linked Account, and to otherwise initiate any Transaction using your designated Payment Method in accordance with the instructions provided by or on behalf of you through the Moov Services.

If you wish to revoke your authorization provided under this Section 2.3, then you will immediately notify Moov of your desire to do so.

2.4. Linking or Unlinking a Payment Method. If you link a Payment Method to your Moov Account, then you agree to keep your linked Payment Method information current. If your Payment Method information changes, then Moov may update such information using information and third-party sources available to Moov without any action on your part. If you do not want Moov to update your Payment Method information, then you will remove your Payment Method from your Moov Account.

Preauthorized payment arrangements are a type of billing arrangement that allow an authorized merchant, biller, or other third party to initiate Transactions using your designated Payment Method linked to your Moov Account on a recurring basis (e.g., every month or otherwise on a routine billing cycle), and if such Transactions will vary in amount, you have the right to advance notice of the amount and date of the Transaction from the merchant, biller, or other third party at least 10 days before the Transaction is completed.

If you wish to stop payment of any preauthorized Transaction, you should contact the applicable authorized merchant, biller, or other third party directly, and/or the financial institution that issued your Payment Method, at least three business days before the scheduled date of the Transaction.

12.1. Governing Law. This Platform Agreement and any Dispute will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.

12.2. Waiver of Jury Trial; No Class Action. SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW AND THE ARBITRATION CLAUSE SET FORTH IN SECTION 12.3, YOU AND MOOV HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OR TO SERVE AS REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY BY YOU AND MOOV, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE BE AVAILABLE. YOU AND MOOV ARE HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION 12.2 IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY YOU AND MOOV. YOU AND MOOV ALSO AGREE NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY BASED UPON ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS PLATFORM AGREEMENT.

12.3. Arbitration Clause. You and Moov agree that any Dispute that cannot be resolved through informal negotiation or, as provided below, in small claims court will be submitted for binding arbitration. The forum for arbitration will be in the city closest to your residence having a federal district courthouse. Any arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its commercial arbitration rules and its supplementary procedures for consumer-related disputes. There will be no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class action basis or in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or other Persons similarly situated. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law of the State of Colorado, exclusive of its conflict-of-law principles. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve any Dispute and to make awards is limited to Disputes between you and Moov alone. The authority to resolve any Dispute is subject to the limitations of liability set forth in this Platform Agreement. Any Dispute brought by either party against the other party may not be joined or consolidated in arbitration with Disputes brought by or against any third party, unless agreed to in writing by the Company and Moov. No arbitration award or decision on any Disputes will be given preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with any Person not a party to the arbitration. If any portion of this Section 12.3 is stricken from this Platform Agreement or deemed to be illegal, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable, then this Section 12.3 will be stricken in its entirety from this Platform Agreement. The provisions of this Section 12.3 and all arbitration awards duly made in connection therewith may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement will be entitled to an award of all costs, fees, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in obtaining the enforcement of this provision, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered. All arbitration awards duly made hereunder will not be subject to review or appeal except as permitted by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding any provision of any agreement between you and Moov to the contrary: (a) you or Moov may seek interim relief from a court located in Denver, Colorado, to protect such party’s rights or property while arbitration is pending, and (b) Moov may bypass the aforementioned arbitration process in cases of fraud or other crimes against Moov, interference with Moov’s technical operations, suspected criminal activity, or violations of Moov’s rights or property, including Moov’s intellectual property rights. Additionally, any Dispute involving a claim of $500 or less may, at the option of the claiming party, be resolved in small claims court in Denver, Colorado, if the claim and the parties are within the jurisdiction of the small claims court, so long as the matter remains in small claims court and proceeds only on an individual basis. You may reject this arbitration clause by sending a written rejection notice to Moov at: 1025 Technology Pkwy, Suite M, Cedar Falls, Iowa 50613, with a copy sent to [email protected]. Your rejection notice must be mailed within 30 days after you accept this Platform Agreement. Your rejection notice must state that you reject the arbitration clause and include your name, address, Moov Account information, and personal signature. No one else may sign the rejection notice. If your rejection notice complies with these requirements, this arbitration clause will not apply as between you and Moov, except for any Disputes that are pending litigation or arbitration at the time you send your rejection notice. Rejection of this arbitration clause will not affect your other rights or responsibilities under this Section 12.3 or this Platform Agreement.

The obligations under this Platform Agreement with respect to Confidential Information, including the restrictions on use and disclosure thereof, will not apply to information or material that (a) is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or omission of the Receiving Party, (b) is or becomes rightfully known by the Receiving Party, without restriction on disclosure or use, from a Person other than the Disclosing Party, or (c) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, as can be shown by documentary evidence. The Receiving Party will have the burden of establishing that any information does not constitute Confidential Information under this Platform Agreement.

7.3. Use and Disclosure. Each Receiving Party will hold the Confidential Information it receives in strict confidence and take appropriate precautions to protect such Confidential Information, which precautions will include, at a minimum, such precautions as such Receiving Party employs to protect its own Confidential Information but no less than commercially reasonable precautions. Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Platform Agreement, a Receiving Party will not use or disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. A Receiving Party may use and disclose Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party only to the extent necessary for such Receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Platform Agreement; provided, that, the Receiving Party may not disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any Person unless such Person (a) has a “need to know” such Confidential Information for the purposes of the Receiving Party exercising its rights or performing its obligations under this Platform Agreement, and (b) is subject to confidentiality obligations that offer at least the same degree of protection as the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Platform Agreement.

7.4. Disclosure Required by Applicable Law. If any Governmental Authority requires a Receiving Party to disclose Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party will: (a) notify the Disclosing Party in writing as soon as practicable after learning of the existence or likely existence of such requirement (unless prohibited by Applicable Law); (b) use all reasonable efforts to limit the scope of such disclosure, disclose only the Confidential Information reasonably required to comply with the requirement, and use reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment of or protection by order of any Confidential Information; and (c) permit, subject to Applicable Law, the Disclosing Party to seek a protective order or to otherwise challenge or limit the disclosure of the Confidential Information prior to the disclosure thereof.

7.5. Equitable Remedies. Each party acknowledges that breach by it of one or more obligations in this Section 7 will cause the other party to suffer immediate and irreparable harm for which money damages would be an inadequate remedy. Therefore, if a party breaches one or more obligations under this Section 7, the other party will be entitled to injunctive or equitable relief as well as any additional relief that may be appropriate or otherwise available to such party.

8. Security.

8.1. Security Program. User will establish and maintain an information security program that includes appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to (the “Security Program”): (a) protect the security, confidentiality, availability, and integrity of Confidential Information and Personal Data; (b) protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information and Personal Data, (c) protect against unauthorized access to or use or disclosure of Confidential Information and Personal Data, (d) address computer and network security, physical security, and a security incident response program; (e) ensure the secure destruction and disposal of Confidential Information and Personal Data; and (f) ensure compliance with all Applicable Law and Network Rules with respect to Confidential information and Personal Data.

8.2. Security Incident. User agrees to notify Moov promptly upon becoming aware of any actual or potential Security Incident. User will cooperate with Moov in good faith to mitigate any adverse consequences of any Security Incident and to otherwise satisfy the obligations of User, Moov, or any FI Partner under Applicable Law, Network Rules, and any requirements and instructions of any Governmental Authority, Network, or FI Partner.

9. Representations and Warranties.

User represents and warrants, on the Effective Date and on each day during the Term (as applicable), that:

User will indemnify, defend (at Moov’s election), and hold harmless Moov and its Affiliates, any applicable FI Partner, and each of Moov’s and its Affiliates’ and any applicable FI Partner’s respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (each, a “Moov Indemnitee”), from and against all damages, losses, liabilities, penalties, fines, assessments, judgments, interest, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the cost of defense), and other amounts (collectively, “Losses”) in connection with any claim, action, demand, investigation, or proceeding (each, a “Claim”) arising out of, relating to, or alleging: (a) any breach of this Platform Agreement by User; (b) any matter, issue, act, or omission for which User has been allocated responsibility under this Platform Agreement; (c) any Transaction, attempted Transaction, or purported Transaction, including any error, fraud, dispute, return, reversal, refund, chargeback, adjustment, duplication, cancellation, or amendment in connection with any such Transaction, attempted Transaction, or purported Transaction except to the extent User cannot be held liable for such Transaction as a matter of Applicable Law; (d) any fines, penalties, assessments, or other amounts assessed or imposed by any Governmental Authority, Network, or FI Partner in connection with User’s access to or use of the Moov Services; (e) any taxes, interest, penalties, assessments, or other amounts assessed or imposed by any taxing authority applicable to User; (f) any relationship or agreement between User and any Customer or third party; (g) any of User’s products or services; (h) any infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of any Intellectual Property Rights of any third party by User; and (i) any negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud of User, or User’s directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives.

10.2. Process. If any Claim is asserted against a Moov Indemnitee, then Moov will promptly notify User in writing of such Claim. Upon receipt of notice of any Claim from Moov, User will assume the defense of such Claim except as otherwise elected by Moov. If Moov elects to require User to defend any Claim, then Moov may participate, at its own cost and expense, in the defense of such Claim and retain counsel of its own choosing. If Moov elects to require User to defend any Claim, then User will not agree to settle or compromise any Claim without Moov’s prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), unless such settlement or compromise (a) is only for the payment of money damages for which Moov will be released and fully indemnified under this Platform Agreement, (b) includes an unconditional release of Moov from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Claim, (c) does not include any statement as to or admission of fault, culpability, or failure to act by or on behalf of Moov, and (d) does not require Moov to take any action or inaction.

11. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES.

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, USER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT MOOV’S AND ANY FI PARTNER’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL DAMAGES AND LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS PLATFORM AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES PAID BY USER FOR THE MOOV SERVICES DURING THE THREE-MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH DAMAGES OR LOSSES.

14. Dispute Resolution.

14.1. Governing Law. This Platform Agreement and any Dispute will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.

14.2. Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial; No Class Action. SUBJECT TO THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 14.3, IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING ANY DISPUTE:

  • THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN THE STATE COURTS IN DENVER, COLORADO, OR FEDERAL COURT FOR THE STATE OF COLORADO; AND
  • THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY BY THE PARTIES, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE BE AVAILABLE. EACH PARTY IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY THE PARTIES. EACH PARTY ALSO COVENANTS NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY BASED UPON ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS PLATFORM AGREEMENT.

14.3. Arbitration. The parties agree that any Dispute will be submitted for binding arbitration. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, any arbitration will take place in Denver, Colorado, and will be administered by, and pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of, the American Arbitration Association, including any expedited procedures. There will be no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class action basis or in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or other Persons similarly situated. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law of the State of Colorado, exclusive of its conflict-of-law principles. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve any Dispute and to make awards is limited to Disputes between the parties alone. The authority to resolve any Dispute is subject to the limitations of liability set forth in this Platform Agreement. Any Dispute brought by either party against the other party may not be joined or consolidated in arbitration with Disputes brought by or against any third party, unless agreed to in writing by the Company and Moov. No arbitration award or decision on any Disputes will be given preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with any Person not a party to the arbitration. If any portion of this Section 14.3 is stricken from this Platform Agreement or deemed to be illegal, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable, then this Section 14.3 will be stricken in its entirety from this Platform Agreement. The provisions of this Section 14.3 and all arbitration awards duly made in connection therewith may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement will be entitled to an award of all costs, fees, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in obtaining the enforcement of this provision, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered. All arbitration awards duly made hereunder will not be subject to review or appeal except as permitted by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding any provision of any agreement between the parties to the contrary: (a) Moov or User may seek interim relief from a court located in Denver, Colorado, to protect such party’s rights or property while arbitration is pending, and (b) Moov may bypass the aforementioned arbitration process in cases of fraud or other crimes against Moov, interference with Moov’s technical operations, suspected criminal activity, or violations of Moov’s rights or property, including Moov’s Intellectual Property Rights.

If User has any issues viewing or accessing this Platform Agreement or any Notices, then User will contact Moov at [email protected]. If User wishes to withdraw User’s consent to receive this Platform Agreement and Notices through electronic methods, then User will contact Moov at [email protected].

Standard text or data charges may apply to any Notices provided via text message. Where offered, User may disable text message notifications by responding to any such message with “STOP” or by following instructions provided in the text message. However, by disabling text messaging, User may be deactivating important security features associated with User’s Moov Account, which may increase the risk of loss to User. User will need a computer or mobile device, internet connectivity, and an updated browser to access and review Notices.

15.3. Wireless Service Providers. User acknowledges and agrees that Moov may communicate with User or User’s representative via SMS messages transmitted by wireless service providers (e.g., AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, etc.).

User acknowledges and agrees that Moov is not responsible or liable for any Third-Party Services.

16.7. No Waiver. The failure of Moov to insist upon strict adherence to any term or condition of this Platform Agreement on any occasion will not be considered a waiver of such term or condition, nor will it deprive Moov of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to such term or condition or any other term or condition of this Platform Agreement. Any waiver must be in a writing signed by Moov.

16.8. Severability. If any provision of this Platform Agreement is determined by any Governmental Authority to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under Applicable Law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

17. Definitions.

ACH Transfer Services Terms

The ACH Transfer Services Terms govern User’s access to and use of the ACH Transfer Services. Unless otherwise defined in this Platform Agreement, capitalized terms used in the ACH Transfer Services Terms have the meanings set forth in Section 9 of the ACH Transfer Services Terms.

Moov’s FI Partner, Veridian Credit Union (“ACH FI Partner”), is a party to this Platform Agreement solely in connection with the ACH Transfer Services. Accordingly, in addition to constituting a legally binding agreement between Moov and User, this Platform Agreement also will constitute a legally binding Origination Agreement between ACH FI Partner and User.

1. ACH Transfer Services.

1.1. Generally. Moov, as an agent of, and in conjunction with, ACH FI Partner, will provide or otherwise make available the ACH Transfer Services to User in order for User to originate and receive funds transfers through the ACH network in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Platform Agreement.

1.2. Origination of Debit and Credit Entries. User hereby authorizes ACH FI Partner, in its capacity as an Originating Depository Financial Institution, to originate debit and credit Entries on behalf of User in accordance with the instructions communicated by User to ACH FI Partner through the ACH Transfer Services. User agrees that Moov and ACH FI Partner may rely on all instructions communicated by User to ACH FI Partner through the ACH Transfer Services without further inquiry into the accuracy, completeness, authenticity, or validity of such instructions, subject to the applicable Security Procedures.

1.3. Nacha Rules. Users acknowledges and agrees that User’s access to and use of the ACH Transfer Services is subject to the Nacha Rules. The Nacha Rules may be purchased online at www.nacha.org under the publications tab. User hereby agrees to be bound by and comply with the Nacha Rules in connection with its access to and use of the ACH Transfer Services. User will review and ensure it understands the Nacha Rules prior to accessing and using the ACH Transfer Services.

2. Initiation of Entries.

2.1. Permitted Entries. User will only initiate Entries that fall within those ACH Standard Entry Class Codes (“SEC”) supported in the Documentation. User must select the SEC to be used by User in connection with an Entry and will be responsible and liable for ensuring that it selects and uses the correct SEC for such Entry. If User does not select an SEC, then Moov may use reasonable efforts to identify and input an appropriate SEC for User, but User, and not Moov, will remain responsible and liable for the selection and use of such SEC. Except for Entries supported by the Documentation, and the initiation of Reinitiated Entries subject to and in accordance with Section 2.12, User will not initiate any other types of Entries in connection with the ACH Transfer Services. In initiating any supported Entries, User hereby acknowledges that User is subject to specific responsibilities, standards, and other requirements in its initiation of such Entries under the Nacha Rules and agrees that User will comply with, and will ensure that it enables compliance by Moov and ACH FI Partner with, all such responsibilities, standards, and other requirements applicable to the initiation of such Entries. User may consider successful RTP Payments to an account as part of its commercially reasonable fraudulent transaction detection system for screening debit WEB Entries.

2.2. Formatting and Other Requirements. User will comply with the formatting and other requirements of the Moov Services in connection with the initiation of Entries through the Moov Services.

2.3. Cut-off Times. Moov and ACH FI Partner have established cut-off times for the initiation of Entries in connection with the ACH Transfer Services. The cut-off times applicable to the initiation of Entries will be provided or otherwise made available to User by the Company through which User accesses the Moov Services. If User initiates an Entry prior to the applicable cut-off time on a business day, then the Entry should be transmitted on the business day on which ACH FI Partner receives the instruction. If User initiates an Entry after the applicable cut-off time, then the Entry should be transmitted on the following business day.

2.4. Restrictions on Entries. The dollar amount and volume of Entries, individually and in the aggregate, permitted to be initiated by User on any one business day may be subject to limits established by Moov or ACH FI Partner from time to time. In addition, Moov and ACH FI Partner may be subject to limits on the dollar amount and volume of Entries that may be submitted through the ACH network. If any Entry would cause User, Moov, or ACH FI Partner to exceed any applicable limits, then User acknowledges and agrees that the Entry may not be processed or submitted through the ACH network. Moov and ACH FI Partner may modify, supplement, or replace any restrictions applicable to the initiation of Entries through the ACH Transfer Services. User will not initiate any Entry in a currency other than U.S. dollars. User agrees not to originate Entries that violate any Applicable Law or Nacha Rules.

2.5. Authorization; Records Retention. User will be responsible for obtaining any authorization required by Applicable Law and the Nacha Rules from any Receiver whose account will be debited or credited in connection with any Entry. User will ensure that any authorization obtained by User complies with all Applicable Law and Nacha Rules. User will keep and maintain a record of each authorization obtained by User in its original form in accordance with Applicable Law and the Nacha Rules and, upon request, will promptly provide such original authorization (or a copy of such original authorization, if permitted) to Moov, ACH FI Partner, or any applicable Receiving Depository Financial Institution.

2.6. Modifications to Entries. User will have no right to cancel or amend any Entry after User has initiated such Entry through the ACH Transfer Services. Moov and ACH FI Partner may endeavor to act on a cancellation or amendment to any Entry initiated by User. However, User agrees that neither Moov nor ACH FI Partner will have any responsibility or liability in connection with any cancellation or amendment to any Entry, including if Moov or ACH FI Partner are not able to effect the cancellation or amendment of such Entry. User will comply with the Security Procedures in connection with any cancellation or amendment request.

2.7. Payment for Credit Entries and Returned Debit Entries. In the event that User does not have good and available funds in the User’s Moov Balance sufficient to cover the total amount of any or all Entries initiated by User, Moov and ACH FI Partner may take any of the following actions: (a) refuse to process all Entries; (b) process Entries for which User has good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance in whatever order Moov or ACH FI Partner determine is appropriate; or (c) in the event Moov or ACH FI Partner elects to process Entries initiated by User and User does not have good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance to cover such Entries, the total amount advanced by Moov or ACH FI Partner on behalf of User will be immediately due and payable by User without further demand from Moov or ACH FI Partner. Moov may make available information about the status of an Entry through User’s Moov Account. As among User, Moov, and ACH FI Partner, Moov and ACH FI Partner will not be responsible or liable for taking any of the above actions, and User will promptly reimburse Moov and ACH FI Partner for any Losses incurred by Moov and ACH FI Partner in connection with such Entries.

2.8. Pre-Funding. Prior to initiating any Entry, User will ensure that it has good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance for such Entry.

2.9. On-Us Entries. In the case of any Entry received for credit to an account maintained with ACH FI Partner, Moov and ACH FI Partner may elect to process such Entry as an on-us Entry (each, an “On-Us Entry”) and credit the Receiver’s account in the amount of such Entry on the date specified in such Entry.

2.10. Provisional Settlement. User hereby acknowledges that payment of an Entry by a Receiving Depository Financial Institution to a Receiver is provisional under the Nacha Rules until receipt by the Receiving Depository Financial Institution of final settlement for such Entry. User hereby further acknowledges that, if final settlement for an Entry is not received by the Receiving Depository Financial Institution, the Receiving Depository Financial Institution will be entitled to a refund from the Receiver of the amount credited to the Receiver and, in such case, User will not be deemed to have paid the Receiver the amount of such Entry.

2.11. Errors in Instructions Provided by User. Neither Moov nor ACH FI Partner will have any obligation to discover, nor will Moov or ACH FI Partner be responsible or liable to User for discovering, or for failing to discover, any error made by User in connection with the ACH Transfer Services, including for any error made in identifying the source or recipient of Entries, for any error in the amount of the instructions related to any Entry, or for any issuance by User of duplicate instructions related to any Entry. If User discovers that any Entry initiated by User was in error, then User will promptly notify Moov and ACH FI Partner of such error.

2.12. Returns; Notice of Returned Entries and Notification of Change. Moov or ACH FI Partner will notify User of the receipt of any returned Entry. If Moov and ACH FI Partner complied with the terms of these ACH Transfer Services with respect to an Entry, then Moov and ACH FI Partner will have no obligation to retransmit any returned Entry associated with the original Entry to the ACH operator. User will notify any applicable Receiver by phone, electronic transmission, or other acceptable means of communication of receipt of each returned Entry no later than one business day after the business day of receiving such notification from Moov or ACH FI Partner. Moov or ACH FI Partner will provide User with information required by the Nacha Rules with respect to each Notification of Change (“NOC”) Entry or corrected Notification of Change (“Corrected NOC”) Entry received by Moov or ACH FI Partner relating to Entries transmitted by User. Moov or ACH FI Partner will provide such information to User within the applicable time periods required under the Nacha Rules. User will ensure that changes requested by the NOC or Corrected NOC are made within the time periods required by the Nacha Rules. User may reinitiate the original Entry as expressly permitted by, and subject to and in accordance with, the Nacha Rules. User acknowledges that User is subject to specific responsibilities, standards, and other requirements in connection with returned Entries, return rates, and return rate levels, including requirements for reporting, complying with return rate levels, and taking action to lower return rates within and for certain periods of time, and User agrees to comply with all such specific responsibilities, standards, and other requirements, to enable Moov’s and ACH FI Partner’s compliance with the Nacha Rules with respect to such responsibilities, standards, and other requirements, and to otherwise fully cooperate with Moov and ACH FI Partner in taking such other action as may be reasonably required or requested by Moov or ACH FI Partner.

2.13. Rejection of Entries. User agrees that Moov and ACH FI Partner will have no obligation to accept Entries and, therefore, may reject any Entry initiated by User. While Moov and ACH FI Partner have no obligation to notify User of any rejection of any Entry, Moov and ACH FI Partner nevertheless may do so. Neither Moov nor ACH FI Partner will have any responsibility or liability to User for any rejection of any Entry and will not be responsible or liable to User for any amounts, including any interest, in connection with the rejection of any Entry.

2.14. ACH Clearing Times. User acknowledges and agrees that the standard ACH clearing times will apply to Entries initiated in connection with the ACH Transfer Services.

Without limiting the foregoing, neither Moov nor any ACH FI Partner makes any warranty or guarantee that a requested Entry will occur within any given time and Moov and ACH FI Partner each hereby expressly disclaim any such warranty or guarantee.

3. Reversal of Entries.

3.1. General. Moov and ACH FI Partner will endeavor to effect a reversal of an Entry to the extent reversal is expressly permitted by the Nacha Rules (each, a “Reversal”) and User makes the Reversal request in order to give Moov and ACH FI Partner sufficient time to manually prepare and properly and timely submit a Reversal file in accordance with the Nacha Rules. User acknowledges that any request for Reversal must be submitted to the ACH Operator within the time frames required under the Nacha Rules, be made immediately upon discovery of any error, and be accompanied by any required form. Additionally, the basis for any Reversal must be expressly permitted by the Nacha Rules and otherwise in compliance with the Nacha Rules. User’s request for any Reversal must enable Moov and ACH FI Partner comply with the Nacha Rules in connection with such Reversal. If User requests any Reversal of a debit Entry, then User concurrently will transfer good and available funds to User’s Moov Balance to cover the Reversal. User also will notify the applicable Receiver of any Reversal initiated to correct any Entry initiated by User in error.

3.2. Liability for Reversals. Neither Moov nor ACH FI Partner will be responsible or liable for any Losses if any Reversal is not effected. Additionally, User will reimburse Moov and ACH FI Partner for any Losses incurred by Moov or ACH FI Partner in effecting, or attempting to effect, User’s request for any Reversal. User will be responsible and liable to Moov and ACH FI Partner for the full amount of any payment received by User that is subject to a Reversal, and User will be responsible and liable to Moov and ACH FI Partner for any fees associated with the Reversal.

3.3. Authorization to Recover Amounts Due. User authorizes Moov to recover any Losses arising out of or relating to any Reversal in accordance with this Platform Agreement.

User hereby acknowledges and agrees that Moov, ACH FI Partner, User, and/or the Company through which User accesses and uses the ACH Transfer Services (as applicable) may establish security measures applicable to the initiation of certain credit Entries in connection with the ACH Transfer Services (“Security Procedures”). User acknowledges and agrees that any applicable Security Procedures are intended to verify that any instruction for a credit Entry, including any amendments to such instruction, is that of User, that any applicable Security Procedures are not designed to detect any errors in instructions for credit Entries, including any amendments to such instructions, initiated through the ACH Transfer Services, and that User is solely responsible for detecting and preventing errors.

User agrees to immediately notify Moov of the possible unauthorized access to or use or disclosure of any identifications, passwords, hints, personal identification numbers, or other information used by User to access and use the ACH Transfer Services.

5. Review of Entries.

User agrees to review regularly User’s transaction history in connection with the ACH Transfer Services. If User identifies any errors, discrepancies, or unauthorized Entries with respect to the ACH Transfer Services, then User will immediately report such errors, discrepancies, or unauthorized Entries to Moov. Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, if User fails to notify Moov of any error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Entry within 14 days of the date as of which User’s transaction history reflecting the error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Entry is made available to User, then User hereby waives any right to assert any error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Entry.

6. Inconsistency of Name and Account Number.

If any Entry describes the applicable Receiver inconsistently by name and account number, then User hereby acknowledges and agrees that payment of the Entry may be made by the Receiving Depository Financial Institution (or by ACH FI Partner, in the case of an On-Us Entry) on the basis of the account number provided by User, even if such account number identifies a Person different from the named Receiver, and that User’s obligation to pay the amount of the Entry is not excused in such circumstances. User will be responsible and liable for, and must settle with Moov and ACH FI Partner, for any Entry initiated by User that identifies a Receiver by account or identifying number or by name and account or identifying number.

7. User Representations and Warranties.

7.1. With respect to each Entry initiated by User, User hereby represents and warrants to Moov and ACH FI Partner that:

8. Limitation of Liability.

3.10. Liability for Representatives. User will ensure that all directors, officers, employees, and agents of User comply with Applicable Law, Network Rules, and this Platform Agreement. User will be responsible and liable for all acts and omissions of any director, officer, employee, or agent of User in connection with the Merchant Processing Services.

4. Settlement.

4.1. Generally. Moov will arrange for the settlement of User’s Transactions in connection with the Merchant Processing Services (“Settlement”) as set forth in this Section 4 of the Merchant Processing Services Terms. User understands that this Section 4 of the Merchant Processing Services Terms sets forth the Settlement process to be used in conjunction with the Merchant Processing Services as of the Effective Date. User acknowledges and agrees that Moov or Acquirer may change the Settlement process from time to time as may be necessary, appropriate, or desirable by Moov or Acquirer. Moov will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify User of any material change to the Settlement process in advance of such change to the extent such change will directly affect User.

4.2. Net Settlement. Settlement will occur on a net-Settlement basis. To determine net-Settlement amounts due to User in connection with the Merchant Processing Services, Moov will calculate the total amount of User’s Transactions in connection with the Merchant Processing Services during the applicable calculation period and will reduce such amount by any settlement, payment, reserve, or other financial obligations of User in connection with the Merchant Processing Services, which will include: (a) any fees, charges, expenses, or other similar amounts owed by User in connection with the Merchant Processing Services; (b) any amounts associated with any Transaction Disputes; (c) any fines, penalties, assessments, or other similar amounts assessed by any Governmental Authority, Network, or Acquirer; and (d) any reserve required to be maintained by User as set forth in this Section 4.

4.3. Receipt of Settlement from Networks. Following the receipt of Settlement amounts from the Networks, Moov will calculate net-Settlement amounts payable to User as described in Section 4.2 and Acquirer will, at the instruction of Moov, transfer such amounts into User’s Holding Account and Moov will record the same to User’s Moov Balance. Upon Acquirer’s transfer of Settlement amounts to the Holding Account as provided herein, User acknowledges and agrees that Acquirer has provided the Settlement funds directly to User and has satisfied its Settlement obligations under the Network Rules. Acquirer does not hold, and is not responsible for, User’s Holding Account, which is maintained with another FI Partner of Moov. Moov will be responsible for providing Acquirer with accurate information regarding User’s Holding Account and Moov Balance. Acquirer will not be liable for any delays in receipt of Settlement funds or errors in debit or credit entries caused by User, Moov, or any other Person, including any delays or errors resulting from errors in Holding Account or Moov Balance information.

4.4. Adjustments to Settlement Amounts. If User believes any adjustments should be made to User’s Settlement amount, then User must notify Moov in writing within sixty (60) days after any debit or credit is made to your Holding Account for Settlement. If you notify Moov after such 60-day period, then Moov has no obligation to investigate or make any adjustments.

4.5. Right of Set-Off. User hereby authorizes Moov and Acquirer to set-off and reduce from any Settlement amounts payable to User any settlement, payment, reserve, or other financial obligations of User in connection with the Merchant Processing Services.

4.6. Restrictions on Settlement Amounts. In addition to any other rights and remedies available to Moov or Acquirer in connection with this Platform Agreement, Moov and Acquirer may restrict User’s access to Settlement amounts to the extent Moov or Acquirer reasonably determine such action may be necessary or appropriate, including to guard against risk of loss or to address any issue of noncompliance with this Platform Agreement by User.

5. Reserve Account.

5.1. Generally. In addition to any other rights of Moov or Acquirer in connection with this Platform Agreement, Moov or Acquirer may establish a reserve account (“Reserve Account”) to hold funds in reserve or may impose conditions on the release of funds to which User may otherwise be entitled (e.g., Settlement amounts) in order to secure any of User’s existing or future obligations in connection with the Merchant Processing Services (a “Reserve”) upon the occurrence of any fact, circumstance, or event that Moov or Acquirer determines could expose Moov, Acquirer, or any Network to unacceptable risk of loss or liability. The amount of any Reserve will be determined by Moov or Acquirer based on various factors, including User’s processing history (e.g., historical Transaction volume, Transaction Disputes, fines, penalties, assessments, or other similar amounts assessed by any Governmental Authority, Network, or Acquirer, etc.), User’s anticipated Transaction volume, User’s compliance with this Platform Agreement, the nature of User’s business and products or services, and the potential risk of loss or liability to Moov, Acquirer, or any Network. The amount of the Reserve may change from time to time as reasonably determined by Moov or Acquirer and communicated to User in accordance with this Platform Agreement.

5.2. Funding a Reserve. Upon the occurrence of any fact, circumstance, or event giving rise to Moov’s or Acquirer’s right to require a Reserve Account, User hereby authorizes Moov or Acquirer, at the direction of Moov, to fund the Reserve Account by setting off Settlement amounts payable to User and debiting amounts from User’s Moov Balance and Linked Account. If User does not have sufficient funds in User’s Moov Balance and Linked Account to fund the Reserve Account, then User will immediately fund User’s Reserve Account in accordance with Moov’s instructions. User acknowledges and agrees that its failure to fund a Reserve Account as required in accordance this Section 5 may result in the suspension of User’s access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services.

5.3. Security Interest. In order to secure the obligations of User to Moov in connection with the Merchant Processing Services, User hereby grants to Moov a first lien and security interest in, and continuing lien on, all of User’s right, title, and interest in and to the Reserve Account and all funds in the Reserve Account and the Reserve amounts, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired, or arising. User hereby authorizes Moov to execute and file, at User’s cost and expense, any documents and to take any such other actions as may be necessary or appropriate to create, perfect, maintain, and enforce the security interest granted hereunder, including the filing of any financing statements, and User hereby agrees to execute all such documents and to take any such other actions as may be necessary, appropriate, or reasonably requested by Moov or Acquirer in furtherance of creating, perfecting, maintaining, and enforcing the security interest granted hereunder. User represents and warrants that User has good, complete, and marketable title to all of the assets, accounts, and receivables to which User grants a lien and security interest hereunder, free and clear of any and all liabilities, liens, claims, charges, restrictions, conditions, options, rights, mortgages, security interests, equities, pledges, and encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever or any other rights or interests that may be inconsistent with the transactions contemplated with, or adverse to the interests of, Moov. The security interest granted to User hereunder may be exercised by Moov without notice or demand of any kind.

6. Fees.

User agrees to pay the Payment Acceptance Transaction Fees in connection with its access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services. The Payment Acceptance Transaction Fees will be communicated to User by the Company prior to User’s acceptance of this Platform Agreement. By agreeing to this Platform Agreement, User hereby represents and warrants that the Payment Acceptance Transaction Fees have been disclosed to User and that User reviewed and understands the Payment Acceptance Transaction Fees applicable to its access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services.

User (a) acknowledges that each Network is the sole owner of such Network’s Marks, (b) agrees not to contest the ownership of the Marks of any Network for any reason, and (c) agrees that any Network may prohibit User from using the Marks of such Network for any reason. User will immediately cease any use, display, and reproduction of the Marks of any Network upon the earlier of User’s receipt of notice of the same from such Network or the effective date of the expiration or termination of the Merchant Processing Services Terms.

8. Network Security Requirements.

User will comply, and will cause any applicable third party utilized by User to comply, with all applicable PCI Standards and Network Security Programs in connection with its access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services. Upon request, User will provide or otherwise make available to Moov, Acquirer, and any Network any documentation requested to evidence User’s and any applicable third party’s compliance with all applicable PCI Standards and Network Security Programs, including any applicable tests, scans, and assessments. If User experiences a Security Incident, then User will notify Moov of such Security Incident and will otherwise cooperate with Moov in connection with such Security Incident in a manner that enables Moov, Acquirer, and User to satisfy their applicable obligations under Applicable Law, Network Rules, and FI Partner Guidelines with respect to such Security Incident. Subject to Section 3.13 of the Commercial User Terms, User will notify Moov if User uses any third party that provides payment related services, directly or indirectly, and/or stores, transmits, or processes data of any Person making payment (including cardholder data), and User is responsible for ensuring such third party complies with all applicable PCI Standards and the terms and conditions of this Platform Agreement. Without limiting any other restrictions under this Platform Agreement, User will not sell, transfer, or disclose any materials that contain data of any Person making payment (including cardholder data) or information (including account numbers and personal information), or other transaction information to any third party. User and/or its agent shall notify Moov and, at Moov’s discretion, either return any data and information to Moov or provide Moov with acceptable proof of destruction of such data and information. If User is undergoing a forensic investigation regarding compliance with PCI Standards and Network Security Programs at the time User executes this Platform Agreement, or at any time during the Term of this Platform Agreement, then User must fully cooperate with the investigation until completed.

9. Representations, Warranties, and Covenants of User.

By submitting a Transaction through the Merchant Processing Services, User represents and warrants, as of the date and time of submission of the Transaction, as follows: (a) the Transaction is not a previously disputed Transaction subsequently returned to User; (b) the Transaction is not knowingly illegal, fraudulent, or unauthorized or a Transaction that User should have known is illegal, fraudulent, or unauthorized; (c) the Transaction is not the submission of an authorization request or Transaction by User on behalf of another merchant or other third party; (d) the Transaction is not conducted with a credit card and does not represent the refinancing or transfer of an existing cardholder obligation that has been deemed to be uncollectible; (e) the Transaction does not arise from the dishonor of a cardholder’s personal check; (f) the Transaction will not damage the goodwill of any Network or reflect negatively on the Marks of any Network, in such Network’s sole discretion; (g) the Transaction does not arise from the acceptance of a Payment Method at a scrip-dispensing terminal; and (h) User prominently and clearly discloses at all point-of-interaction locations: (1) the name of User so that cardholders can easily distinguish User from any other party; and (2) the country location of User to enable the cardholder to easily determine, among other things, whether the Transaction will be domestic or cross-border.

10. Suspension and Termination.

10.1. Acquirer and Network Rights. User acknowledges that Acquirer or any Network may limit, suspend, or terminate, or may require Moov to limit, suspend, or terminate, User’s access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services at any time for any reason. If Acquirer or any Network limits, suspends, or terminates, or requires Moov to limit, suspend, or terminate, User’s access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services, then Moov may limit, suspend, or terminate User’s access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services.

10.2. Moov Termination Rights. Moov may immediately suspend or terminate User’s access to and use of the Merchant Processing Services if:

  • Any significant circumstances exist that create harm or loss of goodwill to the Networks;
  • Any Network de-registers Moov and makes Moov’s continued provision of the Merchant Processing Services impracticable; or
  • Acquirer ceases to be a Network member for any reason or fails to maintain a valid license to use the Marks of any Network.

10.3. MATCH List. The Networks maintain a list called the Member Alert to Control High-risk Merchants (“MATCH”) indicating those merchants who have had their merchant agreements or payment acceptance rights terminated for cause. User agrees that if this Platform Agreement is terminated for cause, Moov may report User to the Networks for inclusion on the MATCH list, and User waives and holds harmless Moov and Acquirer from any and all Claims and Losses which User may have as a result of such reporting.

11. American Express Cardrefresher Services.

11.1. In connection with the Merchant Processing Services, User may receive certain cardrefresher services (the “Cardrefresher Services”) from American Express or its Affiliates (collectively, “American Express”). If User accesses or uses the Cardrefresher Services, User will comply with the following additional terms and conditions in connection with User’s access to and use of the Cardrefresher Services:

  • User will comply with the American Express User Guide, which will be and remain the confidential information of American Express and will take all action deemed necessary or appropriate by Moov to facilitate Moov’s compliance with the American Express User Guide.
  • User will not (i) resell, loan, rent, lease, pledge, assign, license, sub-license, or otherwise transfer any of its rights to access or use the Cardrefresher Services or any data received in connection with the Cardrefresher Services; (ii) modify, edit, adapt, reproduce, translate, transform, recast, manipulate, or create derivative works of the Cardrefresher Services or any components thereof for any reason; or (iii) use the Cardrefresher Services or any data received in connection with the Cardrefresher Services for marketing purposes.
  • To the extent that User has to undertake any certification in connection with the Cardrefresher Services, User will complete the certification process in accordance with the American Express User Guide and Moov’s instructions.
  • User will (i) provide, maintain, and operate its workstations, software, internet access, and hardware in User’s use locations that send data to and receive data from the Cardrefresher Services and all aspects of the physical, technical, and administrative security of the data within User’s use locations; and (ii) notify Moov of any material changes to the connectivity between User’s workstations, software, internet access, or hardware that may impact the Cardrefresher Services, not less than 90 days prior to implementation of such changes.
  • When User registers a cardmember for the Cardrefresher Services, and with respect to User’s customers who have previously entered into a stored credential or card-on-file arrangement with User, User will provide adequate connectivity so that User is receiving the cardmember’s updated American Express card account status (including cancellation of the American Express card account) or changes to the cardmember’s American Express card number or expiration date from the issuer of the applicable American Express card.
  • User will notify cardmembers that American Express cards issued by certain banks may not be eligible for the Cardrefresher Services and that the cardmember should check with the applicable American Express card issuer to determine eligibility.
  • User will comply with and fulfill all cardmember requests to discontinue the Cardrefresher Services in accordance with the process set forth in the American Express User Guide.
  • User will safeguard, store, transmit, use, retain, destroy, and otherwise treat cardmember information obtained in connection with the Cardrefresher Services in accordance with the terms of the American Express User Guide and as otherwise deemed necessary or appropriate by Moov.
  • User will establish, implement, and maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures that (i) protect the security and integrity of any network, database, files, or systems on which cardmember information is transmitted, stored, or processed; and (ii) guard against the accidental or unauthorized access to or use, alteration, loss, or disclosure of cardmember information while such cardmember information is on User’s network, database, files, or systems.
  • User will not continue recurring billing charges if a cardmember has withdrawn consent for automatic or recurring billing charges or has requested removal of cardmember information from User’s network, database, files, or systems.
  • All cardmember information provided to User is and will remain the property of American Express. User will use all cardmember information for the sole purposes described in this Section 11 and will not provide or sell such cardmember information to third parties.
  • In addition to complying with the other confidentiality obligations in this Platform Agreement, User will regard and preserve as confidential the Cardrefresher Services and all information disclosed or made available to User pursuant to or in connection with the Cardrefresher Services, or which is based on, contains, or otherwise reflects all or any part of such information (the “Cardrefresher Confidential Information”). User will hold all Cardrefresher Confidential Information in confidence and, except as set out herein, will not release Cardrefresher Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of American Express. User will limit access to Cardrefresher Confidential Information to those employees who, in User’s reasonable judgment, require access to such information. User will inform its employees of their obligations in connection with this Section 11 and will require its employees to treat Cardrefresher Confidential Information in accordance with the requirements hereof and all Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, User will remain responsible and liable for any breach of this Section 11 by its employees.
  • User will take all action deemed necessary or appropriate by Moov to facilitate User’s or Moov’s compliance with this Section 11.

12. Additional Provisions Required by American Express.

12.1. Data. User acknowledges and agrees that Moov may disclose “Transaction Data,” “Sponsored Merchant Data,” and other information about User to American Express, agents, subcontractors, and employees and that American Express and its agents, subcontractors, and employees may use such information to perform under its agreement with Moov, operate and promote the American Express Network, perform analytics and create reports, and for any other lawful business purpose, including as described in American Express Merchant Regulations. Solely for the purpose of this Section 12.1, “Transaction Data” and “Sponsored Merchant Data” have the meanings ascribed to them in the American Express Merchant Regulations.

12.2. User Not a Third-Party Beneficiary. User agrees that it is not a third-party beneficiary under the agreement between American Express and Moov.

12.3. Conversion to Direct Card Acceptance Relationship. User acknowledges that it may be converted from the Merchant Processing Services program to a direct card acceptance relationship with American Express if and when User becomes a high value merchant in accordance the American Express Merchant Regulations. Upon conversion, User agrees that User will be bound by American Express’s then-current card acceptance agreement and American Express will set pricing and other fees payable by User for card acceptance. If User becomes a high value merchant to American Express, then Moov will notify User.

12.4. Cardmember Offers. In an effort to encourage cardmembers to seek out and shop at small merchants that accept American Express, American Express may include small merchants in cardmember offers from time to time. There is no additional cost to User to be included in these offers. For more information, visit www.americanexpress.com/us/small-business/shop-small and click on the “Cardmember Offers” tab. There, User can view offer terms and conditions, determine if User’s business is an eligible small merchant that is included in any offers, and access any available signage to promote cardmember offers in which User is included to Customers.

12.5. Card Acceptance. User will display American Express’s Marks and otherwise honor American Express cards in accordance with the American Express Merchant Regulations. User must accept American Express cards as payment for products or services (other than those products and services prohibited under Section 3.3, “Prohibited Uses of the Card,” of the American Express Merchant Regulations) sold, or (if applicable) for charitable contributions made, at all of User’s establishments, except as expressly permitted by state statute. User is jointly and severally liable for the obligations of User’s establishments. User acknowledges that User may elect to accept Other Payment Products without also accepting American Express Cards (as such terms are defined in the American Express Network Rules).

12.6. Treatment of the American Express Brand.

  • Except as expressly permitted by Applicable Law, User must not: (a) indicate or imply that User prefers, directly or indirectly, any other payment products over the American Express card; (b) try to dissuade cardmembers from using the American Express Card; (c) criticize or mischaracterize the American Express card or any of American Express’s services or programs; (d) try to persuade or prompt cardmembers to use any other payment products or any other method of payment (e.g., payment by check); (e) impose any restrictions, conditions, disadvantages, or fees when the American Express card is accepted that are not imposed equally on all other payment products, except for electronic funds transfer, or cash or check; (f) suggest or require cardmembers to waive their right to dispute any Transaction; (g) engage in activities that harm American Express’s business or the American Express Brand (or both); (h) promote any other payment products (except User’s own private label card that User issues for use solely at User’s establishments) more actively than User promotes the American Express card; or (i) convert the currency of the original sale Transaction to another currency when requesting authorization or submitting Transactions (or both).
  • User may offer discounts or in-kind incentives from User’s regular prices for payments in cash, ACH funds transfer, check, debit card, or credit/charge card, provided that (to the extent required by Applicable Law): (i) User clearly and conspicuously disclose the terms of the discount or in-kind incentive to Customers; (ii) the discount or in-kind incentive is offered to all of User’s prospective Customers; and (iii) the discount or in-kind incentive does not differentiate on the basis of the issuer or, except as expressly permitted by applicable state statute, payment card network (e.g., Visa, Mastercard, Discover, JCB, American Express). The offering of discounts or in-kind incentives in compliance with the terms of this Section 12.6(b) will not constitute a violation of the provisions set forth in Section 12.6(a).

12.7. Treatment of the American Express Marks. Whenever payment methods are communicated to Customers, or when Customers ask what payments area accepted, User must indicate User’s acceptance of the American Express card and display American Express’s Marks (including any card application forms American Express may provide User) as prominently and in the same manner as any other payment products. User must not use American Express’s Marks in any way that injures or diminishes the goodwill associated with the American Express mark, nor in any way (without American Express’s prior written consent) indicate that American Express endorses User’s products or services. User will only use American Express’s Marks as permitted by this Platform Agreement and will cease using the American Express Marks upon termination of this Platform Agreement.

12.8. Treatment of American Express Cardmember Information. Except as otherwise specified, User must not disclose American Express cardmember information, nor use nor store it, other than to facilitate Transactions at User’s establishments in accordance with this Platform Agreement. For more information about protecting American Express cardmember information, see Chapter 8, “Protecting Cardmember Information,” of the American Express Merchant Regulations.

12.9. Website Information Display Guidelines. User will comply with the applicable website information display guidelines set forth in Section 13.4, “General Payment Aggregator Requirements,” of the American Express Merchant Regulations.

12.10. Industry-Specific Requirements. If User engages in activities in a specific industry identified in Chapter 12, “Specific Industries,” of the American Express Merchant Regulations, then User will comply with all applicable industry-specific terms and conditions set forth therein.

12.11. Prohibition against Billing or Collecting. User will not bill or collect from any Customer for any purchase or payment on the American Express card unless chargeback has been exercised, User has fully paid for such charge, and User otherwise has the right to do so.

12.12. Arbitration Agreement (as to Claims Involving American Express). This Section 12.12 sets forth the Arbitration Agreement as to Claims Involving American Express (the “Arbitration Agreement”). Definitions applicable to the Arbitration Agreement are set forth at the end of this Section 12.12. In the event that User or Moov is not able to resolve a Claim against American Express, or a claim against Moov or any other entity that American Express has a right to join in resolving a Claim, this Section explains how Claims can be resolved through arbitration. User or American Express may elect to resolve any Claim by individual binding arbitration. Claims are decided by a neutral arbitrator. If arbitration is chosen by any party, neither User nor Moov nor American Express will have the right to litigate that Claim in court or have a jury trial on that Claim. Further, User, Moov, and American Express will not have the right to participate in a representative capacity or as a member of any class or be a named party to a class-action with respect to any Claim for which any party elects arbitration. Arbitration procedures are generally simpler than the rules that apply in court, and discovery is more limited. The arbitrator’s decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to very limited review by a court. Except as set forth below, the arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding.

  • Initiation of Arbitration. Claims will be referred to either JAMS or AAA, as selected by the party electing arbitration. Claims will be resolved pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement and the selected organization’s rules in effect when the Claim is filed, except where those rules conflict with this Arbitration Agreement. Contact JAMS or AAA to begin an arbitration or for other information. Claims may be referred to another arbitration organization if all parties agree in writing, or to an arbitrator appointed pursuant to section 5 of the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (FAA). Any arbitration hearing that requires the physical presence of the parties shall take place in New York, unless all parties agree to an alternate venue.
  • Limitations on Arbitration. If any party elects to resolve a Claim by arbitration, that Claim will be arbitrated on an individual basis. There will be no right or authority for any Claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving Claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public, other merchants, or other persons or entities similarly situated. The arbitrator’s authority is limited to Claims between User, Moov, and American Express. Claims may not be joined or consolidated unless all parties to this Arbitration Agreement agree in writing. An arbitration award and any judgment confirming it will apply only to the specific case brought by User, Moov, or American Express and cannot be used in any other case except to enforce the award as between User, Moov, and American Express. This prohibition is intended to, and does, preclude User from participating in any action by any trade association or other organization against American Express. Notwithstanding any other provision and without waiving the right to appeal such decision, if any portion of these Limitations on Arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the entire Arbitration provision (other than this sentence) will not apply.
  • Previously Filed Claims/No Waiver. User, Moov, or American Express may elect to arbitrate any Claim that has been filed in court at any time before trial has begun or final judgment has been entered on the Claim. User, Moov, or American Express may choose to delay enforcing or to not exercise rights under this arbitration provision, including the right to elect to arbitrate a Claim, without waiving the right to exercise or enforce those rights on any other occasion. For the avoidance of any confusion, and not to limit its scope, this Section applies to any class-action lawsuit relating to the “Honor All Cards,” “non-discrimination,” or “no steering” provisions of the American Express Merchant Regulations, or any similar provisions of any prior American Express card acceptance agreement, that was filed against American Express prior to the effective date of agreement between Moov and American Express.
  • Arbitrator’s Authority. The arbitrator shall have the power and authority to award any relief that would have been available in court, including equitable relief (e.g., injunction, specific performance) and, cumulative with all other remedies, shall grant specific performance whenever possible. The arbitrator shall have no power or authority to alter the agreement between Moov and American Express or any of its separate provisions, including this Section, nor to determine any matter or make any award except as provided in this Section.
  • Split Proceedings for Equitable Relief. User, Moov, or American Express may seek equitable relief in aid of arbitration prior to arbitration on the merits to preserve the status quo pending completion of such process. This Section shall be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, including legal fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.
  • Small Claims Court. American Express shall not elect to use arbitration under this Section for any Claim User properly files in a small claims court so long as the Claim seeks individual relief only and is pending only in that court. Injunctive relief sought to enforce the confidentiality and proprietary rights provisions of this Platform Agreement is not subject to the requirements of this Section. This Section is not intended to, and does not substitute for the ordinary business practices, policies, and procedures of Moov or American Express, including the rights of Moov or American Express to chargeback and to create reserves.
  • Governing Law/Arbitration Procedures/Entry of Judgment. This arbitration Section is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and is governed by the FAA. The arbitrator shall apply New York law and applicable statutes of limitations and shall honor claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall apply the rules of the arbitration organization selected, as applicable to matters relating to evidence and discovery, not the federal or any state rules of civil procedure or rules of evidence, provided that any party may request that the arbitrator expand the scope of discovery by doing so in writing and copying any other parties, who shall have 15 days to make objections, and the arbitrator shall notify the parties of their decision within 20 days of any objecting party’s submission. If a Claim is for $10,000 or less, User or American Express may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the rules of the selected arbitration organization. At the timely request of a party, the arbitrator shall provide a written and reasoned opinion explaining their award. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding, except for any rights of appeal provided by the FAA. If a Claim is for more than $10,000 and less than $100,000, User, Moov, and American Express shall be entitled to limited discovery, which shall include no more than (a) reasonable discovery of hard-copy and electronically-stored information, including not more than four custodians, as approved by the arbitrator, who shall consider, inter alia, whether the discovery sought from one party is proportional to the discovery received by the other party, and (b) two depositions per party. If a Claim is for $100,000 or more, or includes a request for injunctive relief, (a) any party to the Arbitration Agreement shall be entitled to reasonable document and deposition discovery, including (x) reasonable discovery of electronically stored information, as approved by the arbitrator, who shall consider, inter alia, whether the discovery sought from one party is proportional to the discovery received by another party, and (y) no less than five depositions per party; and (b) within 60 days of the initial award, either party can file a notice of appeal to a three arbitrator panel administered by the selected arbitration organization, which shall reconsider de novo any aspect requested of that award and whose written decision (or the award (if no written decision is timely requested)) shall be final and binding. At the timely request of a party, the arbitrator(s) shall provide a written and reasoned opinion explaining their award. The arbitrator’s decisions shall be final and binding, except for any rights of appeal provided by the FAA. If more than 60 days after the written arbitration decision is issued the losing party fails to satisfy or comply with an award or file a notice of appeal, if applicable, the prevailing party shall have the right to seek judicial confirmation of the award in any state or federal court where User’s headquarters or User’s assets are located.
  • Confidential Proceedings. The arbitration proceeding and all testimony, filings, documents, and any information relating to or presented during the proceedings shall be deemed to be confidential information not to be disclosed to any other party. All offers, promises, conduct, and statements, whether written or oral, made in the course of the Claim resolution process, including any related negotiations, mediations, arbitration, and proceedings to confirm arbitration awards by either party, its agents, employees, experts, or attorneys, or by the mediator or arbitrator, including any arbitration award or judgment related thereto, are confidential, privileged, and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment or estoppel, in any other litigation or proceeding involving any of the parties or non-parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the negotiation, mediation, or arbitration.
  • Costs of Arbitration Proceedings. User will be responsible for paying User’s share of any arbitration fees (including filing, administrative, hearing, or other fees). At User’s written request, American Express will consider in good faith making a temporary advance of User’s share of any arbitration fees, or paying for the reasonable fees of an expert appointed by the arbitrator for good cause.
  • Additional Arbitration Awards. If the arbitrator rules in User’s favor against American Express for an amount greater than any final settlement offer American Express made to User before any arbitration award is announced, the arbitrator’s award will include: (1) any money to which Sponsored Merchant is entitled to pursuant to the award, but in no case less than $5,000; and (2) any reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expert and other witness fees incurred by User.
  • Definitions. For purposes of this Section, only, (i) “American Express” includes any of its Affiliates, licensees, predecessors, successors, or assigns, any purchasers of any receivables, and all agents, directors, and representatives of any of the foregoing, and (ii) “User” includes User’s Affiliates, licensees, predecessors, successors, or assigns, any purchasers of any receivables and all agents, directors, and representatives of any of the foregoing, and (iii) “Claim” means any allegation of an entitlement to relief, whether damages, injunctive, or any other form of relief, against American Express or against Moov or any other entity that American Express has the right to join in resolving a Claim, including, a transaction using an American Express product or network or regarding an American Express policy or procedure.
  • Continuation. This Section will survive termination of this Platform Agreement, any legal proceeding to collect a debt, any bankruptcy and any sale of User or User’s assets (in the case of a sale, its terms will apply to the buyer). If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement, except as otherwise provided in the Limitations on Arbitration subsection, is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of this Arbitration Agreement, this Platform Agreement, or any predecessor agreement User may have had with Moov, each of which shall be enforceable regardless of such invalidity.

15. Definitions.

Card Issuing Services Terms

The Card Issuing Services Terms govern User’s access to and use of the Card Issuing Services. Unless otherwise defined in this Platform Agreement, capitalized terms used in the Card Issuing Services Terms have the meanings set forth in Section 9 of the Card Issuing Services Terms.

Moov’s FI Partner, Lincoln Savings Bank (“Issuer”), is a party to this Platform Agreement solely in connection with the Card Issuing Services. Accordingly, in addition to constituting a legally binding agreement between Moov and User, this Platform Agreement also will constitute a legally binding cardholder agreement between Issuer and User. ISSUER IS NOT A PARTY TO THIS PLATFORM AGREEMENT AND NO ACCOUNT RELATIONSHIP IS ESTABLISHED WITH ISSUER UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE CARD ISSUING SERVICES ARE ENABLED IN THE MOOV PLATFORM FOR USE BY THE USER. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, EVEN IF USER IS UTILIZING SERVICES OTHER THAN CARD ISSUING SERVICES PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THIS PLATFORM AGREEMENT, USER HAS NO RELATIONSHIP, CONTRACTUAL OR OTHERWISE, WITH ISSUER UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE CARD ISSUING SERVICES ARE ENABLED FOR USER.

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 all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Person who opens an account. What this means for User: When User opens an account, Moov and/or Issuer will ask for User’s name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Moov and/or Issuer to identify User. Moov and/or Issuer may also ask for identifying documents. Identity verification is required before User can use the Card.

When an account is opened on behalf of a User, Moov and/or Issuer may ask for copies of certain information that will help Moov and/or Issuer verify the User’s information and/or the identity of the User and the User’s Authorized Users and Representatives. Moov and/or Issuer may collect a User’s information, including address, corporate organizational documents and certificates, and federal employer identification number. Personal information may be collected from the User and the User’s principal owners, Authorized Users, and Representatives, including name, address, phone number, date of birth, social security number or individual taxpayer identification number, driver’s license, and/or passport.

1. Card Issuing Services

1.1. Generally. Moov, as an agent of, and in conjunction with, Issuer, will provide or otherwise make available the Card Issuing Services to User, which will enable User to request, receive, and facilitate the use of such Cards in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Platform Agreement.

1.2. Purpose. User will only access and use the Card Issuing Services, and any Cards in connection with the Card Issuing Services, for business and commercial purposes. User will not access or use, or permit any other Person to access or use, the Card Issuing Services, or any Cards in connection with the Card Issuing Services, for personal, family, or household purposes. By requesting the issuance of, accessing, or using a Card, User agrees that User is a Commercial User subject to the Commercial User Terms of this Platform Agreement.

1.3. Modifications. Moov or Issuer may modify, replace, or discontinue all or any part of the Card Issuing Services from time to time, including the type of Cards, the features and functionality of the Cards, and the limitations or other restrictions applicable to User’s access to or use of the Cards. Continued use of any Card constitutes User’s consent and acceptance of any modifications to the Card Issuing Services or this Platform Agreement.

2. General Obligations of Users.

2.1. Eligibility. In order for User to access and use the Card Issuing Services, User must meet certain eligibility standards imposed by Moov and/or Issuer. If User accesses and uses the Card Issuing Services through a Company, Moov may request that the Company verify User’s eligibility pursuant to the eligibility standards. User will provide or otherwise make available all information and data requested by the Company for the purpose of verifying User’s satisfaction of the eligibility standards and will otherwise fully cooperate with the Company in connection with the Company’s verification of User’s satisfaction of the eligibility standards.

2.2. Authorized Users and Representatives.

  • User will designate one or more authorized representatives of User to control and administer all access to and use of the Card Issuing Services through the Company Platform on behalf of User (each, a “Representative”). User acknowledges and agrees that only Representatives are authorized to control and administer all access to and use of the Card Issuing Services on behalf of User and to request Cards and to provide such Cards to Authorized Users.
  • User may authorize employees, independent contractors, or other Representatives of User to receive and use Cards to initiate Card Transactions on behalf of User (each, an “Authorized User”). User acknowledges and agrees that only Authorized Users are authorized to use Cards to initiate Card Transactions on behalf of User.
  • User is responsible for notifying each Representative and Authorized User of User’s and their obligations under this Platform Agreement and monitoring each Representative’s and Authorized User’s access to and use of the Card Issuing Services to ensure their compliance with this Platform Agreement.

Subject to any limitations or restrictions imposed by Moov and/or Issuer, if User accesses the Card Issuing Services through a Company, User acknowledges and agrees that the Company may impose additional limitations or restrictions on User’s access to or use of the Card Issuing Services. User will comply with all limitations and restrictions applicable to User’s access to and use of the Card Issuing Services.

Moov and/or Issuer may refuse to authorize any Card Transaction that Moov and/or Issuer believe violates the terms of this Platform Agreement.

Moov and Issuer are not responsible for the delivery, quality, safety, legality, or any other aspect of products or services that User or any Authorized User purchases in connection with a Card Transaction. If User has a dispute regarding the product or service purchased in connection with a Card Transaction, User will contact the merchant directly in an effort to resolve the dispute. User will report, through the Company Platform, any Disputed Transaction as soon as possible, but in no event more than 60 days after such Disputed Transaction posts to User’s Moov Account. User will ensure that User’s report contains sufficient detail regarding the Disputed Transaction to enable Moov and/or Issuer to reasonably investigate the Disputed Transaction and User will provide any additional information requested or required by the Company, Moov, and/or FI Issuing Partner in connection with the Disputed Transaction. User acknowledges and agrees that by reporting the Disputed Transaction, User assigns and transfers to Issuer any rights and claims that User may have against any merchant for such Disputed Transaction.

In addition, Moov and RTP FI Partner may be subject to limits on the dollar amount and volume of RTP Payments that may be submitted through the RTP network. If any RTP Payment would cause User, Moov, or RTP FI Partner to exceed any applicable limits, then User acknowledges and agrees that the RTP Payment may not be processed or submitted through the RTP network. Moov and RTP FI Partner may modify, supplement, or replace any restrictions applicable to the initiation of RTP Payments through the RTP Transfer Services. User will not initiate any RTP Payment in a currency other than U.S. dollars. User agrees not to initiate RTP Payments that violate any Applicable Law.

User will comply with the Security Procedures in connection with any cancellation or amendment request.

2.5. Pre-Funding. Prior to initiating any Payment Instruction, User will ensure that it has good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance for the RTP Payment.

Moov may make available information about the status of a Payment Instruction and the related RTP Payment through User’s Moov Account.

2.7. Rejection of Payment Instructions. User agrees that Moov and RTP FI Partner will have no obligation to accept Payment Instructions and, therefore, may reject any Payment Instructions submitted by User for any reason.

In the event the related RTP Payment is not completed due to such cancellation or rejection, User understands a new Payment Instruction must be initiated through the RTP Transfer Service to effect the RTP Payment.

2.9. Errors in Payment Instructions. Neither Moov nor RTP FI Partner will have any obligation to discover, nor will Moov or RTP FI Partner be responsible or liable to User for discovering, or for failing to discover, any error made by User in connection with the RTP Transfer Services, including for any error made in identifying the Receiver, for any error in the amount of the RTP Payment, or for any issuance by User of duplicate Payment Instructions.

By accessing and using the RTP Transfer Services, User agrees that: (a) User has reviewed and evaluated, and understands, any applicable Security Procedures, (b) any applicable Security Procedures constitute a commercially reasonable method of protecting against unauthorized RTP Payments, and (c) User will comply with any applicable Security Procedures for any RTP Payments initiated through the RTP Transfer Services.

User agrees to review regularly User’s transaction history in connection with the RTP Transfer Services.

Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, if User fails to notify Moov of any error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Payment Instruction or RTP Payments within 14 days of the date as of which User’s transaction history reflecting the error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Payment Instruction is made available to User, then User hereby waives any right to assert any error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Payment Instruction or RTP Payment.

5. Reliance on Account Number.

If any Payment Instruction describes the applicable Receiver inconsistently by name and account number, then User hereby acknowledges and agrees that the related RTP Payment may be made by the Receiving Participant (or by RTP FI Partner, in the case of an On-Us RTP Payment) solely on the basis of the account number provided by User, even if such account number identifies a Person different from the named Receiver, and that User’s obligation to pay the amount of the RTP Payment is not excused in such circumstances. User will be responsible and liable for, and must settle with Moov and RTP FI Partner, for any RTP Payment initiated by User that identifies a Receiver by account or identifying number or by name and account or identifying number.

  • Specific Requirements for Individual Disbursements. User will ensure that each Disbursement submitted by User (1) is authorized and is not the result of any fraudulent, suspicious, or otherwise unusual activity, (2) is submitted by User, and represents a genuine disbursement in connection with the provision of bona fide goods, services or other value to Recipient, (3) is a bona fide payment by User to Recipient and is not made on behalf of any third party, (4) is not used for a replacement for purchase transactions; (5) is originated in the Territory; (6) does not arise out of or relate to any illegal, unlawful, fraudulent, unethical, prohibited activity; (7) is not subject to any dispute, set-off, or counterclaim; (8) is not a duplicate of any other transaction; (9) with respect to non merchant settlement Disbursements, is submitted under User’s merchant identification number (MID) and (10) does not violate Applicable Law, Network Rules, or this Platform Agreement.

  • Contact Methods. User may contact Moov at [email protected] in the event of any complaint or dispute related to a Disbursement or the Card Network Disbursement Services.
  • Delays. User will notify Moov and/or Acquirer in the event the receipt of funds by a Recipient is delayed by more than two business days. User acknowledges and agrees that Moov and Acquirer do not have any control over the acts or omissions of a Recipient’s Debit Card issuer or any other financial institutions or third parties that could delay the Card Network Disbursement Services or any Disbursement, and neither Moov nor Acquirer will be responsible or liable for any Losses arising out of or relating to any acts or omissions of a Recipient’s Debit Card issuer or any other financial institution or third party, including in the event that additional time is needed to verify identities, complete required fraud and risk screening, otherwise satisfy requirements of Applicable Law or Network Rules, or effect a Disbursement. Without limiting the foregoing, neither Moov nor Acquirer makes any warranty or guarantee that any Disbursement will occur within any given time and Moov and Acquirer each hereby expressly disclaim any such warranty or guarantee.
  • Cancellation and Amendment of Disbursement Instructions. Except as provided by Applicable Law, User has no right to cancel or amend any Disbursement instruction after User has submitted such instruction through the Card Network Disbursement Services. Moov and Acquirer may endeavor to act on a cancellation or amendment request to any Disbursement instruction submitted by User before a related payment message is sent. However, User agrees that neither Moov nor Acquirer will have any responsibility or liability in connection with any cancellation or amendment to any Disbursement instruction, including if Moov or Acquirer are not able to effect the cancellation or amendment of such Disbursement instruction. User understands and agrees that a Disbursement instruction cannot be cancelled or amended once a Disbursement has been accepted by the Recipient’s issuer. User will comply with the Security Procedures in connection with any cancellation or amendment request.
  • Reversals. Moov and/or Acquirer will endeavor to effect a reversal of a Disbursement to the extent a reversal is expressly permitted by the Network Rules (each, a “Reversal”) and User makes the Reversal request in a manner that provides Moov and/or Acquirer sufficient time to manually prepare and properly and timely submit a Reversal in accordance with the Network Rules. User acknowledges that any request for Reversal must be submitted to the relevant Network within the time frames required under the Network Rules, be made immediately upon discovery of any error, and be accompanied by any required form. Additionally, the basis for any Reversal must be expressly permitted by the Network Rules and otherwise in compliance with the Network Rules. User’s request for any Reversal must enable Moov and Acquirer to comply with the Network Rules in connection with such Reversal. User also will notify the applicable Recipient of any Reversal initiated to correct any Disbursement initiated by User in error. Neither Moov nor Acquirer will be responsible or liable for any Losses if any Reversal is not effected. Additionally, User will reimburse Moov and Acquirer for any Losses incurred by Moov or Acquirer in effecting, or attempting to effect, User’s request for any Reversal.

2.10. Processing Errors. User agrees to review regularly User’s transaction history in connection with the Card Network Disbursement Services. If User identifies any errors, discrepancies, or unauthorized Disbursements with respect to the Card Network Disbursement Services, then User will immediately report such errors, discrepancies, or unauthorized Disbursements to Moov. Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, if User fails to notify Moov of any error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Disbursement within 14 days of the date as of which User’s transaction history reflecting the error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Disbursement is made available to User, then User hereby waives any right to assert any error, discrepancy, or unauthorized Disbursement. Moov will reasonably investigate any timely claim associated with a Disbursement for a commercially reasonable period following Moov’s receipt of notice from User.

2.11. Security Procedures. User hereby acknowledges and agrees that Moov and/or Acquirer may establish security measures applicable to the initiation of certain Disbursements (“Security Procedures”). User acknowledges and agrees that any applicable Security Procedures are intended to verify that any Disbursement instruction, including any amendments to such instruction, is that of User, that any applicable Security Procedures are not designed to detect any errors in Disbursement instructions, including any amendments to such instructions, initiated through the Card Network Disbursement Services, and that User is solely responsible for detecting and preventing errors. By accessing and using the Card Network Disbursement Services, User agrees that: (a) User has reviewed and evaluated, and understands, any applicable Security Procedures, (b) any applicable Security Procedures constitute a commercially reasonable method of protecting against unauthorized Disbursements, and (c) User will comply with any applicable Security Procedures for any Disbursements. User agrees to be bound by any Disbursement instructions initiated through the Card Network Disbursement Services, including any amendments to such instructions, whether authorized or unauthorized, that are accepted in compliance with any applicable Security Procedures. User agrees to immediately notify Moov of the possible unauthorized access to or use or disclosure of any identifications, passwords, hints, personal identification numbers, or other information used by User to access and use the Card Network Disbursement Services, including but not limited to any transaction data or any information relating to a Recipient that is collected, stored, transmitted or processing in connection with any Disbursement processed hereunder. User acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible and liable for any such unauthorized access.

2.12. Funding.

  • Pre-Funding. Prior to initiating any Disbursement, User will ensure that it has good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance for the Disbursement. For each Disbursement instruction submitted by User, Moov and Acquirer, based on instruction from Moov, shall be authorized to withdraw User’s funds from User’s Moov Balance in the amount of such Disbursement plus all fees due and owing to Moov and Acquirer in association therewith. User will not initiate a Disbursement that would cause User to exceed User’s Moov Balance. In the event that User does not have good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance sufficient to cover the total amount of any or all Disbursements initiated by User, Moov and Acquirer may take any of the following actions: (1) refuse to process all Disbursement instructions and related Disbursements; (2) process those Disbursement instructions and related Disbursements for which User has good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance in whatever order Moov or Acquirer determine is appropriate, and refuse to process the remaining Disbursement instructions and related Disbursements; or (3) process Disbursement instructions and related Disbursements regardless of whether User has good and available funds in User’s Moov Balance to cover each such Disbursement, in which case the total amount advanced by Moov or Acquirer on behalf of User will be immediately due and payable by User without further demand from Moov or Acquirer. Moov may make available information about the status of a Disbursement instruction and the related Disbursement through User’s Moov Account. As between Moov and Acquirer, on the one hand, and User, on the other hand, Moov and Acquirer will not be responsible or liable for taking any of the above actions, and User will promptly reimburse Moov and Acquirer for any Losses incurred by Moov and Acquirer in connection with such actions.
  • Authorization. User hereby authorizes Moov, Acquirer, and/or any other applicable FI Partner to electronically debit and credit User’s Linked Account or the Reserve Account (defined below, if any) for the purpose of satisfying User’s payment, settlement, and other financial obligations, and to otherwise act in accordance with User’s instructions with respect to User, in connection with the Card Network Disbursement Services. User hereby acknowledges and agrees that the authorization provided by User in this Section 2.12(b) will remain in full force and effect until User notifies Moov that User wishes to revoke such authorization and Moov processes and completes such request and the request has been successfully processed by Moov and/or Acquirer. If User wishes to revoke the authorization provided by User in this Section 2.12(b), User acknowledges and agrees that Moov requires at least 10 business days’ prior notice to cancel such authorization.

2.13. Reserve Account.

  • Generally. In addition to any other rights of Moov or Acquirer in connection with this Platform Agreement, Moov or Acquirer may establish a reserve account (“Reserve Account”) to hold funds in reserve or may impose conditions on the release of funds to which User may otherwise be entitled in order to secure any of User’s existing or future obligations in connection with the Card Network Disbursement Services (a “Reserve”) upon the occurrence of any fact, circumstance, or event that Moov or Acquirer determines could expose Moov, Acquirer, or any Network to unacceptable risk of loss or liability. The amount of any Reserve will be determined by Moov or Acquirer based on various factors, including User’s processing history (e.g., historical Transaction volume, Transaction Disputes, fines, penalties, assessments, or other similar amounts assessed by any Governmental Authority, Network, or Acquirer, etc.), User’s anticipated Disbursement volume, User’s compliance with this Platform Agreement, the nature of User’s business, and the potential risk of loss or liability to Moov, Acquirer, or any Network. The amount of the Reserve may change from time to time as reasonably determined by Moov or Acquirer and communicated to User in accordance with this Platform Agreement.
  • Funding a Reserve. Upon the occurrence of any fact, circumstance, or event giving rise to Moov’s or Acquirer’s right to require a Reserve Account, User hereby authorizes Moov or Acquirer, at the direction of Moov, to fund the Reserve Account by setting off amounts payable to User under the Merchant Processing Services Terms (if applicable) and debiting amounts from User’s Moov Balance and Linked Account. If User does not have sufficient funds in User’s Moov Balance and Linked Account to fund the Reserve Account, then User will immediately fund User’s Reserve Account in accordance with Moov’s instructions. User acknowledges and agrees that its failure to fund a Reserve Account as required in accordance with this Section 2.13 may result in the suspension of User’s access to and use of the Card Network Disbursement Services.
  • Security Interest. In order to secure the obligations of User in connection with the Card Network Disbursement Services, User hereby grants to Moov a first lien and security interest in, and continuing lien on, all of User’s right, title, and interest in and to the Reserve Account and all funds in the Reserve Account and the Reserve amounts, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, acquired, or arising. User hereby authorizes Moov to execute and file, at User’s cost and expense, any documents and to take any such other actions as may be necessary or appropriate to create, perfect, maintain, and enforce the security interest granted hereunder, including the filing of any financing statements, and User hereby agrees to execute all such documents and to take any such other actions as may be necessary, appropriate, or reasonably requested by Moov or Acquirer in furtherance of creating, perfecting, maintaining, and enforcing the security interest granted hereunder. User represents and warrants that User has good, complete, and marketable title to all of the assets, accounts, and receivables to which User grants a lien and security interest hereunder, free and clear of any and all liabilities, liens, claims, charges, restrictions, conditions, options, rights, mortgages, security interests, equities, pledges, and encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever or any other rights or interests that may be inconsistent with the transactions contemplated with, or adverse to the interests of, Moov. The security interest granted to User hereunder may be exercised by Moov without notice or demand of any kind.

All terms and conditions that are required under the Network Rules to be included in the Card Network Disbursement Services Terms are hereby incorporated by reference into and made a part of the Card Network Disbursement Services Terms as if they were directly and expressly set forth herein, and User acknowledges and agrees to the incorporation by reference of such terms into the Card Network Disbursement Services Terms and agrees to comply with such terms in connection with its access to and use of the Card Network Disbursement Services.
