Term of Service
36MONEY, LLC
CUSTOMER ADDITIONAL TERMS OF SERVICE
Last Updated: [03/03/2019]
These Customer Additional Terms of Service (“Additional Terms”) apply to your access to and use of the Services (including the Platform) in your capacity as a customer. These Additional Terms apply in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Terms of Service. By clicking “I Accept” or by accessing or using the Services as a customer, you agree to be bound by these Additional Terms and all other terms, policies, and guidelines applicable to such Services, including, but not limited to, the Terms of Service. If you are using the Services on behalf of a business or entity, that business or entity accepts these Additional Terms. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Terms of Service.
1. Customer Account.
In addition to the account security and other requirements set forth in the Terms of Service, the following terms will also apply to your use of a customer-specific account (“Customer Account”). You may make payments to 36money contracted merchants via the Platform using your linked bank account. Your bank account information will be collected and securely stored in 36money partnered third party financial data aggregator’s database. Your transaction history will be accessible via the Platform.
2. Transactions.
We may, at our discretion, impose limits on the amount of transactions you may conduct using the Services. These limits may change from time to time in 36money’s sole discretion. Please contact us at [email protected] for questions regarding any limits.
When your checking account is used as a funding source, you are requesting that a third-party ACH processor (“ACH Processor”) initiate on your behalf an electronic transfer from your bank account. For these transactions, the ACH Processor, and not 36money, will make electronic transfers (via the Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) of NACHA - The Electronic Payment Association (“NACHA”)) from your bank account in the amount of your purchase via the Platform. You agree that such requests constitute your authorization to the ACH Processor to make the ACH transfer, and once you have provided your authorization for the transfer, you will not be able to cancel the electronic transfer and the ACH Processor may resubmit any ACH debit you authorized that is returned for insufficient or uncollected funds, except as otherwise provided by NACHA’s ACH rules, or applicable law. If you choose to use the ACH functionality, you will be subject to the ACH Processor’s terms of service and any related agreements, and you acknowledge and agree that 36money will have no liability related to or arising from such ACH transaction.
You should confirm that your checking account contains funds sufficient to cover the amount needed for the purchase in order to complete the transaction. This will help you avoid overdraft or other fees your financial institution may charge.
3. Fees.
You will not be charged a fee to use the Services, provided that this may change at any time, in which case you may be notified of such change via email or notification sent to your 36money account. Any fees or changes thereto will become effective immediately for transactions entered into as of the effective date. You acknowledge and agree that you may be subject to third-party fees, such as reversal fees, or ACH (defined below) insufficient fund fees that a bank may charge if your payment is rejected.
4. Refunds, Reversals and Chargebacks
Payments may be invalidated and reversed by us if, among other reasons, we sent the payment to you in error, the funding transaction is declined or reversed, the payment was unauthorized or unfunded, the payment was rejected/declined by your originating bank because of non-sufficient funds (NSF), or if the payment was for activities that violated any agreement with us.
As the sender of a payment that is later invalidated for any reason, you may be liable to us for the full amount of the payment and we may recover the amount of the payment from you. We may recover the amount of the payment from the sender of an invalidated payment in our discretion (subject to applicable law). For example, if you send a payment funded by a bank account and the bank informs us it cannot cover the payment due to a lack of funds or a dispute, we may hold you liable for the payment, or if you were the recipient of that payment, we may reverse that payment from your account to cover the liability.
4.1 Liability Collections
First Stage of Liability Recovering
When recovering the amount of an invalid payment from you, 36money will first notify you through the email address associated with your 36money account; after five (5) business days, 36money will recharge the amount of payment without any additional fee.
Second Stage of Liability Recovering
If the first payment recovery is invalid for any reason, 36money will email you and notify the invalidated payment and all applied fees (see section 4.2), if you contact 36money within five (5) business days and schedule all previous invalid payments, 36money will waive all applied fees; otherwise, after five (5) business days, 36money will recharge the amount of payment plus fees.
Third Stage of Liability Recovering
If the second recovery payment is invalidated for any reason and you have not scheduled to pay off previous invalid payments, nor contacted 36money for paying off liability, 36money will send a demand letter to your physical address. The demand letter will serve as evidence for bad checks court claim. You will be offered the option to make payments in the form of cashier's check or money order within thirty (30) days of receiving the letter; if you do not do so, 36money will engage with Third-Party Collection services to file claims against you.
