TERMS & CONDITIONS
Last updated: April 26, 2024
These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) represent an agreement between you as the Account Holder and PayFiniti, LLC (“PayFiniti”, or “Provider”) and contains the terms and conditions under which the E-Wallet Account has been issued to you by Payfiniti through our sponsor bank Florida Capital Bank (“Sponsor Bank” or “FCB”), who provides FDIC insurance for the E-Wallet up to the maximum coverage amount. We encourage you to read these Terms carefully to ensure that you understand each provision. These Terms apply to you, as the Account Owner. By creating an E-Wallet Account, using your E-Wallet, or by otherwise accessing or using the services described herein or provided by PayFiniti, you signify that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. The Account Owner must accept and agree to be bound by these Terms in order to use the E-Wallet. You acknowledge and agree that the value available in the E-Wallet is limited to the funds that you have loaded into the E-Wallet Account or have been loaded into the E-Wallet Account on your behalf. The E-Wallet does not have an expiration date and the funds available in the E-Wallet Account remain available for your use until they are fully depleted. The E-Wallet is a prepaid electronic mobile wallet, as that term is generally understood in the industry. The E-Wallet is not a gift, credit, debit or charge mobile wallet, but it does serve the same purpose as a checking, savings or other asset account. The E-Wallet is not available for resale. You will not receive any interest on your funds in your E-Wallet. The E-Wallet will remain the property of the Provider and must be surrendered upon demand. The E-Wallet is non-transferable, and it may be canceled, repossessed, or revoked at any time by the Provider without prior notice subject to applicable law. We may close your E-Wallet Account if we determine that you have failed to comply by these Terms or used it for illicit purposes. We may refuse to process any transaction that we believe may violate the terms of these Terms. The E-Wallet is only offered to individuals over the age of 18 who can lawfully enter into and form contracts under applicable law, and by using E-Wallet you represent and warrant to us that you are such an eligible individual.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, these Terms contain a mandatory individual arbitration and class action/trial jury trial waiver provision that requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis, rather than jury trials or class actions.

USING YOUR E-WALLET

I. Stopping Payment
Authorization for a transaction may not be withdrawn (or revoked) by you after it is received and/or processed; however, any payment which is agreed to take place on a date later than the date it was authorized may be withdrawn as long as notice of withdrawal was provided no later than the business day before it is due to take place.

You agree to comply with these Terms and you are liable to us for any breach of these Terms by anyone whom you authorized to use your E-Wallet Account. The use of your E-Wallet Account will be regarded as your confirmation to us that you have accepted these Terms.
E-WALLET ACCOUNT BALANCE/TRANSACTION HISTORY
You are responsible for keeping track of your E-Wallet Account available balance. Merchants and linked wallet providers generally will not be able to determine your available balance. It is important to know your available balance before initiating any transaction. You may obtain information about the amount of money you have remaining in your E-Wallet Account by accessing the PayFiniti mobile application. This information, along with a sixty (60) day history of E-Wallet Account transactions, is also available online at myaccount.payfinti.com.

OUR LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO COMPLETE TRANSACTIONS
If we do not properly complete a transaction from your E-Wallet on time or in the correct amount according to our Agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance: (1) if through no fault of ours, you do not have enough funds available on your E-Wallet Account to complete the transaction; (2) if access to your E-Wallet has been blocked after you reported your E-Wallet as having been compromised; (3) if there is a hold or your funds are subject to legal or administrative process or other encumbrance restricting their use; (4) if we have reason to believe the requested transaction is unauthorized; (5) if circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, or computer or other communication failure) prevent the completion of the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken; or (6) any other exception stated in our Agreement with you.
E-WALLET ACCOUNT SUSPENDED OR CLOSED
We can close or suspend your E-Wallet Account at any time for any reason, including if the activity on your E-Wallet Account appears suspicious. Unusual or multiple transactions may prompt an inquiry or E-Wallet suspension to allow us to investigate such unusual activity. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to limit your use of the E-Wallet. We may refuse to issue an E-Wallet or may revoke E-Wallet privileges with or without cause or notice, other than as required by applicable law. You agree not to use or allow other to use a closed, revoked, canceled, suspended or otherwise invalid E-Wallet. If we cancel your E-Wallet Account through no fault of yours, you may request a refund on any remaining balance, and we will issue you the balance of your funds in the E-Wallet Account (less incurred fees and charges) at no cost to you. We may charge a fee to issue a check for the remaining balance in all other circumstances. Checks will be mailed to you at the mailing address you have provided to us. Cancellation of your E-Wallet Account will not affect any of our rights or your obligations arising under this Agreement prior to cancellation.

The arbitration will take place in the federal judicial district located in Spring, Texas. As used in this section, “we” and “us” mean PayFiniti, LLC and its subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, and assignees and all of its and their respective employees, officers, directors, agents, and representatives.

As modified by these Terms. And unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules. Notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may seek emergency equitable relief in a federal or state court located in the federal judicial district of Account Owner’s principal location or in Spring, Texas, in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and each party hereby agrees to submit it to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located therein for such purpose.

III. You agree to the following in connection with any arbitration: (1) no class or similar group arbitration will be permitted; (2) the arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award; (3) subject to any limitations of liability in these terms, the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are expressly permitted by applicable law; and (4) each party will pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses, unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses and the arbitrator awards such attorneys’ fees and expenses to the prevailing party, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded will be determined by the applicable law.
IV. You understand and agree that, by agreeing to these Terms: (1) YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY; (2) YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A COURT RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN US; and (3) YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO SERVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS, IN ANY ARBITRATION OR LAWSUITE INVOLVING ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN US.
V. This arbitration provision will survive termination of the E-Wallet account or these Terms as well as any voluntary payment of any debt in full by Account Owner or bankruptcy by Account Owner, or you or any bankruptcy by you or us. With the exception of the provision of this section prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the balance of this arbitration provision will remain in effect and will be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable or illegal part was not contained herein.
