8. CREDIT CONVEY'S FINANCIAL WELLNESS SERVICES

8.1 Overview of the Financial Wellness Services and Membership

If you subscribe to the Financial Wellness Services, you can access Insights and Alerts powered by AI. With this membership, we present information on your spending habits to help you better understand and monitor your finances. These services are designed to inform you about an upcoming transaction you may need more funds to cover and can help you with the timing of your expenses with respect to your income.

 

9. Enrollment and Establishing a Membership

All features require providing Credit Convey with access to your banking information via Plaid® and designating a Linked Account where you would like Credit Convey to monitor and deposit, and repay any BaG cash and debit your Membership Fee.

After you create a Mobile App user account, you will be prompted to identify and connect a Linked Account via Plaid® if you attempt to use or access any feature within the Mobile App that requires a Linked Account. Access to the app’s services and functionalities requires signing up for an annual Membership. For your convenience, we break down your yearly Membership dues into bi-weekly payments of $7.99, as outlined under Section 9.1. You may cancel your Membership at any time during the year and will not pay any bi-weekly Membership Fee after you cancel. Your Membership will be canceled automatically after 12 months when you can renew it by reconnecting your bank via Plaid®. By connecting a Linked Account and establishing an annual Membership, you agree to pay a $7.99 biweekly Membership Fee as outlined under Section 9.1.

9.1 Membership Fee

There is a bi-weekly fee of $7.99 (“Membership Fee”) to maintain a connection to your Linked Account and banking information.  By connecting a Linked Account to Credit Convey, you authorize Credit Convey to debit the Membership Fee from your Linked Account after a trial period.

Credit Convey will attempt to avoid debiting your Linked Account for the Membership Fee if we detect that you have insufficient funds in your Linked Account to cover the amount owed. Additionally, we will not debit your Linked Account for the Membership Fee if we cannot view the current balance of your Linked Account before initiating the payment. Although we will attempt to avoid debiting your Linked Account if you do not have sufficient funds, Credit Convey makes no warranties that an overdraft will not occur or that your bank will not charge you fees. In addition, if we do not debit your Linked Account because you do not have sufficient funds or if your bank returns a payment or is otherwise unsuccessful, Credit Convey reserves the right to terminate your access to Services that require access to your banking information or a Linked Account.

Credit Convey will stop any recurring billing activity after completing your cancellation. See Section 9.2 for information on canceling your bank connection.

9.2 Canceling Your Membership and Stopping the Membership Fee

At any time, you may cancel your Membership and disconnect your Linked Account from Credit Convey by visiting the Settings screen in the Mobile App and tapping “Cancel Membership.”  This will take less than 30 seconds. Alternatively, you can cancel your Membership at any time by contacting our Customer Service via support@creditconvey.zendesk.com or by disconnecting your bank account through my.plaid.com or by contacting your bank.  Your Membership will automatically be canceled if Credit Convey deletes or disables your Mobile App user account.

You will no longer be charged any Membership Fees after your bank connection is canceled.

Please note that simply uninstalling or deleting the Mobile App from your mobile device will not cancel your membership or stop the Membership Fee.  You must cancel your bank connection by one of the methods described above.

 

10. THE Bridge-a-Gap “BaG” Cash SERVICES

10.1 Overview of the Bridge-a-Gap “BaG” Cash Services

Credit Convey offers BaG cash as part of its Membership service." If you have signed up to the Financial Wellness Services and we detect that your account balance in your Linked Account is below a certain threshold, we will alert you with SMS messages and/or notifications and invite you to take advantage of the BaG cash services. Credit Convey is not responsible for, nor does it assume any liability for errors or omissions in sending such alerts. You may request a BaG cash anytime through the Mobile App. Eligible users requesting a BaG cash will then be offered the opportunity to receive a free BaG cash to their Linked Account. You may also log into the Mobile App and request a BaG cash anytime. In all cases, you must affirmatively choose to receive a BaG cash. The amount of each BaG cash you are eligible for is based on, among other things, whether you have established a direct deposit into your Linked Account and an analysis of your deposits and transaction history. You may only receive one BaG cash at a time, and you may repay any outstanding BaG cash before accepting another. We reserve the right to adjust BaG cash amounts and our eligibility criteria at any time.

You will generally receive your requested BaG cash, if approved, within two business days, depending on processing times.

 10.2 Express Delivery Fee

When you request a BaG cash, you will be given the option to receive your BaG cash by either a standard Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfer, or through an Expedited Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfer and/or through a Real-Time Payment (RTP). Standard ACH transfers generally appear in your Linked Account within three (3) business days. Expedited Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfers are subject to an Express Delivery Fee and will usually be credited to your Linked Account within one (1) business day. RTP Transfers are subject to availability by your bank and will appear on your Linked Account within five (5) minutes.

If you choose to receive your “BaG cash through an Expedited Automated Clearing House ('ACH') transfer or through the RTP Transfer, the Delivery Fee will be payable at the time you repay the BaG cash.

 10.3 BaG Cash Repayment

Each BaG cash, including any Express Delivery Fees ("Total BaG Cash Amount," “You Cash,” or “Your Balance”), is repayable at a future date. There is no mandatory minimum or maximum repayment time frame. We will assign you a repayment date based on our estimation of when you will receive your next deposit into your Linked Account ("Repayment Date"). We will disclose the Total BaG Cash Amount and Repayment Date to you before you accept a BaG cash. You can contact support@creditconvey.zendesk.com if you need assistance with your repayment date.

By accepting a BaG cash, you authorize Credit Convey to debit your Linked Account according to the following terms:

         - We will debit your Linked Account on the Repayment Date at our discretion. If (i) your repayment transaction is declined or returned by your bank, or (ii) we do not process your repayment because we have determined you do not have sufficient funds in your Linked Account, or (iii) we are otherwise unable to process your repayment on the Repayment Date, we will reattempt your repayment up to two (2) additional times within one hundred and twenty (120) days of your Repayment Date.

         - We will first attempt to debit your Linked Account or linked debit card for the total outstanding amount (or Your Balance). However, if we determine before debiting your Linked Account that you do not have sufficient funds, we will instead attempt smaller debits as you make deposits to your Linked Account. You will receive more details regarding the repayment of your BaG cash through the App when you request the BaG cash before you accept.

         - If there is still a remaining outstanding BaG cash amount left after attempting smaller debits as disclosed through the App, we will clear the remaining amount, and you will not need to repay it. You will also continue to be eligible to request future BaG cash, but the size and/or frequency of future BaG cash you are eligible for may be affected.

Credit Convey warrants that it has no legal or contractual claim against you based on a failure to repay a BaG Cash. With respect to a failure to repay a BaG cash, Credit Convey warrants it will not engage in any debt collection activities, place the amount owed with or sell to a third party, or report you to a consumer reporting agency. However, Credit Convey will not provide you with further BaG cash while any amount remains unpaid under the BaG cash Service.

Credit Convey does not waive any rights regarding fraudulent or illegal activity, and Credit Convey will pursue instances of fraud. Although Credit Convey is helping users avoid overdraft fees, Credit Convey is not responsible for any overdraft fees, over-the-limit fees, insufficient fund charges, or any other bank fees that result from your failure to maintain a sufficient balance in your Linked Account. Credit Convey monitors your balance and will attempt to avoid debiting your account if you do not have sufficient funds, but Credit Convey makes no warranties that an overdraft will not occur or that your bank will not charge you fees.

 

11. REFUNDS

Express Delivery Fees and BaG Cash Repayments are generally non-refundable.

The last paid Membership Fee before a permanent membership cancelation and account deactivation is subject to our courtesy refund policy upon request.

 

12. CREDIT AND DEBIT AUTHORIZATION

By enrolling in the Financial Wellness Services and connecting a bank account to Credit Convey, you authorize us to electronically debit a $7.99 Membership Fee from your Linked Bank Account every two (2) weeks. The bi-weekly billing date will start on the first Friday, following three (3) business days from when you initially connect a bank account to Credit Convey. The Membership Fee will be debited from your Linked Account on your bi-weekly billing date until you disconnect your bank account and cancel your membership. You will select your Linked Account when you connect your bank account to Credit Convey through the Mobile App. Your Next Billing Date will always be displayed under the Settings tab in the App for your consideration.

As applicable, you also authorize Credit Convey to electronically debit and credit your Linked Account to correct erroneous debits and credits. You acknowledge that, as applicable, the electronic authorizations contained in this Section represent your written authorizations for automated clearinghouse ("ACH") and debit card transactions as provided herein and will remain in full force and effect until you notify Credit Convey that you wish to revoke an authorization by emailing support@creditconvey.zendesk.com.

You must notify Credit Convey at least three (3) business days before the scheduled debit date to cancel an authorization. When you email, please include the name, email address, and telephone number associated with your Mobile App user account. Failure to provide correct and complete information may make it impossible for Credit Convey to locate and verify your account and to stop the withdrawal of the preauthorized transaction. You agree to indemnify and hold Credit Convey harmless from and against any loss incurred due to its withdrawal of an ACH or debit card transaction from your Linked Account if any of the information relied upon in your request to revoke authorization is incorrect or incomplete. If we do not receive notice at least three (3) business days before the scheduled debit date, we may attempt, in our sole discretion, to cancel the transaction. However, we assume no responsibility for our failure to do so. You warrant and represent to Credit Convey that you have the right to authorize us to charge and credit your Payment Method for payments due to us under this Agreement. In no event will our liability to you exceed the amount of the debit transaction and any bank fees you incur as a direct result of the debit transaction. If you have a joint Linked Account, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to (a) bind the absent accountholder and (b) enter into this Agreement independently. You agree to indemnify and hold Credit Convey harmless from any claims by any other owner of the Linked Account.

You represent that you can save or otherwise store a copy of this electronic authorization for your records, and the credit and debit transactions you request comply with applicable law.

Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from a contract, tort (intentional or otherwise); constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include matters arising as initial claims, counter‐claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. Please note that you may continue to assert Claims in small Claims court if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and BaG Cash only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.

22.2 Applicability of the Federal Arbitration Act; Arbitrator's Powers.

This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act (the "FAA"). The arbitrator will apply substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator may award damages or other types of relief permitted by applicable substantive law, subject to the limitations set forth in this Arbitration Provision. The arbitrator will not be bound by judicial rules of procedure and evidence that would apply in a court. The arbitrator shall take steps to protect confidential information reasonably.

22.3 Opt-Out of Arbitration Provision.

You may opt out of this Arbitration Provision for all purposes by sending an arbitration opt out notice to support@creditconvey.zendesk.com, within 60 days of the date of your electronic acceptance of the terms of this Agreement. The opt-out notice must clearly state that you are rejecting arbitration; identify the Agreement to which it applies by date; provide your name, address, and social security number; and be signed by you. You may send an opt-out notice in any manner you see fit as long as it is received at the specified address within the specified time. No other methods can be used to opt out of this Arbitration Provision. If the opt out notice is sent on your behalf by a third party, such third party must include evidence of his or her authority to submit the opt out notice on your behalf.

22.4 Informal Dispute Resolution.

If a Claim arises, our goal is to learn about and address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. You agree that before filing any claim in arbitration, you may submit Claims by sending an email to support@creditconvey.zendesk.com at any time.

22.5 Arbitration Procedures.

The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA") or Judicial Alternatives and Mediation Services ("JAMS"). The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. If you have any questions concerning the AAA or would like to obtain a copy of the AAA arbitration rules, you may call 1 (800) 778-7879 or visit the AAA's web site at: www.adr.org. If you have any questions concerning JAMS or would like to obtain a copy of the JAMS arbitration rules, you may call 1 (800) 352-5267 or visit their web site at: www.jamsadr.com. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, or any other location we agree to.

22.6 Arbitration Fees.

If we elect arbitration, we shall pay all the administrator's filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees). If you elect arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees) shall be paid in accordance with the rules of the administrator selected, or in accordance with countervailing law if contrary to the administrator's rules. We shall pay the administrator's hearing fees for one full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one day will be paid by the party requesting the hearing, unless the administrator's rules or applicable law require otherwise, or you request that we pay them and we agree to do so. Each party shall bear the expense of its own attorneys' fees, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives you the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein.

22.7 Appeals.

Within 30 days of a final award by the arbitrator, any party may appeal the award for reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel selected according to the rules of the arbitrator administrator. In the event of such an appeal, any opposing party may cross-appeal within 30 days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed. Costs and conduct of any appeal shall be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the administrator's rules, in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and any panel award on appeal, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

22.8 No Class Actions.

NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, no party to the arbitration may join, consolidate, or otherwise bring claims for or on behalf of two or more individuals or unrelated corporate entities in the same arbitration unless those persons are parties to a single transaction. Except for claims seeking public injunctive relief and unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, an award in arbitration shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the claims in arbitration, and shall not (a) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party, or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party; nor (b) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than a named party. No administrator or arbitrator shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this Section 22.8, and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this Section 22.8 shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator.

22.9 Survival and Severability of Arbitration Provision.

This Arbitration Provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision other than Section 22.8 is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. If there is a final judicial determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of this Arbitration Provision's limitations as to a particular claim for relief or particular term, then that claim (and only that claim) or that term (and only that term) must be severed from the Arbitration Provision and may be brought in court. If an arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis, and the limitations on such proceedings in Section 22.8 are finally adjudicated pursuant to the last sentence of Section 22.8 to be unenforceable, then no arbitration shall be had. In no event shall any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims or make awards beyond those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.

22.10 Judicial Forum for Claims.

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that this Arbitration Provision is found not to apply to you or your Claim, you and Credit Convey agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Laramie County, Wyoming. Both you and Credit Convey consent to the venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

22.11 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO LITIGATE.

THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY.

23. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

Except for Section 25 which is governed by the FAA, this Agreement and all Claims are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

24. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable by either an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, this Agreement's remaining provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent possible, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

25. WAIVER

You agree that if Credit Convey does not enforce any of its legal rights or remedies under this Agreement, or other legal rights or remedies Credit Convey has under applicable laws, this shall not be construed as a formal waiver of those rights or remedies or any other rights in any way whatsoever.
