Nothing in this Section shall entitle you to a refund to fees you have paid for our subscription Services. For information about cancelling our subscription services see Section 6(d) below.

- Our Fees. Use of our Services by Contract Creators may be subject to a non-refundable subscription, service, processing, or other fees as set forth on our website. Agree may deduct any such fees from payments made to you hereunder.

Paid Subscription Services For Contract Creators

- Paid Subscriptions. If you would like increase the number of active contracts that you may have at any one time beyond the number provided with our free Services, then you can upgrade your account to a paid account. Our paid accounts are subscription-based. When you sign up for a paid subscription, you agree to pay all applicable fees as they come due including, without limitation, any applicable taxes that we do not collect on your behalf.

- Subscription Renewal. Your subscription will automatically be renewed and your credit card will be automatically charged on a monthly or annual basis, as applicable, until you cancel your subscription. If we are unable to charge a payment to your credit card or are otherwise unable to obtain payment for Services when due, then we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to our Services until we receive payment from you. For example and without limitation, if you sign up for our paid subscription Services and then we are unable to charge your credit card when a payment is due, we may downgrade your access to our free service. This may result in you being unable to access contracts beyond the number of free contracts associated with our free Services.

- Right to Modify Fees and Services. We reserve the right to modify our fees at any time for any reason upon notice to you. Any increase in our fees will take place at the time that the next payment of your subscription is due. From time to time we may add or modify certain offerings or Services and we reserve the right to charge you additional or different fees in consideration for providing such new or modified Services to you.

- Cancelling Your Subscription. You may cancel your subscription by logging into your account and indicating that you wish to cancel your subscription. You will remain liable for all charges through the end of the current subscription billing period. By way of example, if you have signed up for a monthly subscription for your paid account, then you will remain liable for all fees incurred until the end of the current month of your subscription. If you have signed up for and paid for an annual subscription, then you will remain liable for the annual amount that you have prepaid through the end of the current year of your subscription. AGREE WILL NOT ISSUE REFUNDS (OR PARTIAL REFUNDS) FOR ANY SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES FOR WHICH YOU HAVE PREPAID.

Contract Payments

- Payment Processing Agreement for Contract Creators. If Contract Creator elects to use our payment services to accept contract payments from Clients, then Contract Creator must agree to the terms of the “payment processing agreement" found here.

- Payment Services for Clients. By using our Services to make a payment to a Contract Creator pursuant to a contract entered into through use of our Services, Client authorizes Agree (or its designated payment processor) to cause a payment to be processed from the Client’s designated payment account to the Contract Creator’s designated deposit account, as more fully described in the Payment Processing Agreement.

- Payment Ownership, Scheduling, and Disbursement. Payments by Clients that are processed pursuant to the Payment Processing Agreement may be held for up to three (3) business days prior to disbursement to a Contract Creator’s account. Once payment to a Contract Creator has been scheduled, Clients may only change or cancel their payments in accordance with Section8(a). Agree reserves the right to refuse to cause to be processed any payment if we reasonably believe that your activity, or the transaction if processed, would result in you being in violation of this Agreement, applicable law, or, if you are a Contract Creator, the Payment Processing Agreement. In such event we will attempt to promptly notify you if we decline to process a payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will have no obligation to notify you if we reasonably believe you have engaged in any prohibited activity listed in Section 10, or, if you are a Contract Creator, and have otherwise materially violated the Payment Processing Agreement. Once a Client transfers funds designated for payment to a Contract Creator, a Client has no further rights in those funds, except as set forth in Section 8(a). Prior to disbursement in accordance with the Client’s instructions provided during the registration process, Agree shall cause to be deposited all funds received from Client in a non-interest-bearing deposit account at a financial institution in the United States as more fully described in the Payment Processing Agreement. Such account is owned and maintained by its payment processor (the “Settlement Account”). The Settlement Account will be a commingled account containing funds for other customers of Agree payment processor in addition to the funds deposited for the benefit of Agree Contract Creators. Agree shall maintain records of subaccounts for each Contract Creator (“Subaccount(s)”). Agree is not a bank, savings and loan or regulated financial institution. Agree is not a money transmitter. At no time does Agree own, control, or transfer the funds in the Settlement Account, which are owned and controlled by Agree’s payment processor. Agree uses instruction-based funding services provided by its payment processor to cause the fund transfers required for the Services. Agree’s payment processor will initiate funds transfers, to Contract Creators from the Settlement Account consistent with funding instruction files received from Agree. Neither Client nor Contract Creator will receive interest on any amounts for time which elapses during payment processing.

- Reversals, Returns and Chargebacks. Contract Creator agrees to be liable for any reversals, returns, or chargebacks more specifically provided for in the Payments Processing Agreement.

- Recurring Payments. Client may authorize Agree to cause its payment processor to initiate recurring payments to designated Contract Creators based upon an agreed upon contract payment schedule. Agree will make these recurring payments unless and until Agree receives and confirms a Client’s request for cancellation as set forth in Section 8(a) below, and has had a reasonable time to act upon it.

- Taxes. Agree users are responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to payments made or received using Agree, and it is your responsibility to collect, report, and pay the correct tax to the appropriate tax authority.

Payment Cancellation And Contract Refund Policy

- Cancelling a Payment

If you are a Client you may cancel a payment to be made by electronic funds transfer or credit card transaction up to one business day prior to a scheduled payment date for a full refund minus transaction and service fees; provided, however, that you will have no right to cancel a payment order that has been received by Agree’s processor or the processor’s bank.

- Transaction or service fees, and insufficient funds fees are not refundable under any circumstances.

- Insufficient funds fees must be paid in full by one account holder, regardless of how many accounts are associated with the payment.
