10. Payment Terms

A. Generally. You may be required to pay fees to access certain features of the Services, including if you list a business or purchase buyer leads. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are non-refundable. If Company changes the fees for all or part of the Services, including by adding fees or charges, Company will provide you advance notice of those changes. If you do not accept the changes, Company may discontinue providing the applicable part of the Services to you. Company’s authorized third-party payment processor will charge the payment method you specified at the time of purchase. You authorize Company to charge all fees as described in these Terms and Conditions of Use for the Services you select to that payment method. If you pay any fees with a credit card, Company may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account before your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase. Completion of a payment transaction is contingent upon:

  • (a) you providing complete personal, account, transaction and any other information needed
  • (b) authorization of the payment by your credit or debit card company,
  • (c) acceptance of your payment. You may cancel your payment prior to your final submission of it to us. We may, in our sole discretion, cancel your payment at any time by providing notice to you through your contact information or by a notice when you attempt to make a payment. We may cancel a payment or prevent you from initiating future payments for any reason, including, without limitation, the following:
    • (i) if you attempt to use the Services in breach of any applicable law or regulation, including the card network rules or regulations;
    • (ii) if you use the Services in breach of these Terms;
    • (iii) if we suspect fraudulent, unlawful or improper activity regarding a payment;
    • (iv) if we detect, in our sole discretion, that your payments have excessive disputes, high reversal rates or present a relatively high risk of losses; or
    • (v) failure to cooperate in an investigation or provide additional information when requested.

B. Subscriptions. The Services may include features that allow for automatically recurring payments for periodic charges (“Subscription Service”). If you decide to activate a Subscription Service, you authorize Company to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums. The subscription will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription, or we terminate it. You must cancel your Subscription Service before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic subscription fee to your account. We will bill the periodic subscription fee to the payment method you provide to us during registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). Company may change the subscription fee for any subsequent subscription period but will provide you advance notice of any increase before it applies. Unless otherwise stated in your product-specific agreement, you may cancel a Subscription Service by contacting us at: info@vettedbiz.com or through your settings page for the paid feature.
