Beginning on the Effective Date, monthly subscription fees, transaction fees, and all other fees owed by Customer to Company (“Fees”) will be automatically debited from the bank account, credit card, or other electronic payment method for which Customer has provided applicable account information (“Electronic Payment Information”). In the event Customer provides its Electronic Payment Information, Customer authorizes Company to charge the credit card information provided, or debit the bank account information provided, as applicable, beginning as of the Effective Date and monthly or annually thereafter, as applicable, for all applicable Fees. Customer understands that this authorization will remain in effect until it is canceled in writing and agrees to notify Company in writing of any changes in Customer’s account information or termination of this authorization at least 15 days prior to the next billing date. If the payment date falls on a weekend or holiday, Customer understands that payments may be executed on the next business day.

Customer has certified that the business bank account information provided is enabled for ACH transactions and agrees to reimburse Company for all penalties and fees incurred as a result of Customer’s bank rejecting ACH debits or credits as a result of the account not being properly configured for ACH transactions. Both parties agree to be bound by NACHA Operating Rules as they pertain to these transactions.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that, in the event Customer upgrades its Account(s) from a free Account to a paid Account, Customer will be charged the fees applicable to such paid Account on the date of such change and in the amount of the fees due for such month (prorated for the number of days remaining in such month) and the amount due for the following calendar month. Customer further agrees that, in the event Customer downgrades its Account, (i) Customer will not receive or be entitled to any refund for the month in which such change occurs, and (ii) the Fees applicable to the downgraded Account will be due and payable beginning the next calendar month immediately succeeding such change.
