SUBSCRIBER AGREEMENT
Factor Systems, LLC d/b/a Billtrust, (“Billtrust”, "we", "us", "our") and you are entering into this Subscriber Agreement (the “Agreement”) for us to provide you with access to our online bill delivery, payment and management services (the "Billtrust Service(s)").
Fees. There is no fee from Billtrust to you for use of the Billtrust Service as we are paid by the Company Biller (the “Biller”) whose goods or services you are purchasing using the Billtrust Service.
Indemnity. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any third party claims, including any damages, costs, expenses and attorneys' fees arising out of your use of the Billtrust Service.
Privacy. In order to set up electronic payment, automatic payment or online billing, you will be required to provide us with certain personally identifying information including your name, address and telephone number, as well as certain non-public personally identifying information such as your zip code and your deposit account or credit card information. Such information will be stored, handled, and used by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy and our Privacy Shield Policy at https://www.billtrust.com/privacy-policy/.
Cancellation. Your access to the Billtrust Service remains in effect until it is terminated by you, the Biller or us. You may terminate your access to the Billtrust Service at any time by notifying the Biller of your intent to terminate in writing, through the online account portal or by calling the Biller’s Customer Service Department. This cancellation applies to your online services only and does not terminate your account with the Biller.
Procedures for Lost, Stolen, or Compromised Authentication Credentials or Unauthorized Account Access. If you believe that your Authentication Credentials may have been lost or stolen, or that someone may be using your Authentication Credentials without your permission please contact Biller’s Customer Service Department immediately.
Billing Errors or Questions. Please notify the Biller immediately if you suspect that there is error or you have a question about your bill. If you think your bill is inaccurate, or if you need more information about a transaction on your bill, please contact the Biller as soon as possible.
Authority to Debit Account. You authorize the Biller, or Biller’s processor or financial institution, as applicable, to debit your designated settlement account in order to fund your payments that you initiate using the Billtrust Service. Such charge may take the form of a credit card payment, an ACH debit entry or other electronic transfer. You will designate a settlement account for the Biller to charge the payment (the "Payment Account") and you agree to maintain a balance or credit limit in that account that is sufficient to fund all payments you initiate. You represent and warrant that you have the right to authorize the Biller, or Biller’s processor or financial institution as applicable, to charge the Payment Account for payments you authorize and you will indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims related to the processing of your payment or debit of your account. You also agree that we are not responsible for any overdraft or insufficient fund fees or charges (including, but not limited to, finance charges, late fees or similar charges) caused by your failure to maintain funds sufficient to make all payments you authorize. You may stop payment of any single scheduled payment by cancelling the transaction using the Billtrust Service or contacting the Biller or by notifying the Biller, Biller’s processor, or financial institution where your Payment Account is located orally or in writing at least three (3) Business Days before the scheduled date of the payment. A “Business Day”, as defined herein, shall mean Monday through Friday excluding Federal Reserve holidays. We will continue to charge your Payment Account for that payment and for other automatic payments until the date you cancel the automatic payments through the Billtrust Service. In addition, if the ACH charge to your Payment Account is rejected or returned because you have instructed your bank or financial institution to stop the automatic payment, the Biller may charge you a fee for this returned transaction. Your bank or financial institution may require you to give written confirmation of the stop payment within fourteen (14) days of an oral notice. An oral notice may cease to be effective after fourteen (14) days.
Online Billing. By using the Billtrust Service, you will be able to access your billing, account, and payment information, as well as download and print your statements and invoices. By creating and/or maintaining an online account, you understand and consent to receive notification and access all invoices for payment in electronic form and that you will not receive paper copies of invoices for payment via regular mail. We will send you an email notification when a new online bill is available to be viewed. It is your sole responsibility to view your online bills and make a payment for every bill in accordance with the terms of your account.
Payments. You must select the processing date for any payment, or specify a payment rule in the system that automatically selects this date for you, for each bill received. We are not responsible for any costs, expenses or other damages you incur if your payment is not received by the Biller on or before the payment due date. You understand and agree that Billtrust’s Services are limited to the transmission of data and information and that Billtrust does not deposit, debit, hold, settle, or transfer, any of your funds at any time and accordingly is not responsible or liable for any loss or claim in connection with such funds or funds settlement whether resulting from non-payment, overpayment, or duplicate payment.
