5.9. Card Account. Account Owner acknowledge and agree that the value available in the Card Account is limited to the funds that have been added to that account as described by the funding process as described in Section 5.3 (Funding of the Card Account). Account Owner will not receive any interest on the funds in Card Account.

5.10  Activating Cards. The applicable Authorized User must activate every Card before it can be used. An Authorized User may activate a virtual Card and a physical Card on the Website or by calling 833-998-2462      .

5.11  Fees. The following fees, which are subject to change, will be assessed:

  • International Transaction Fee: 2.5% fee that may be assessed when a cardholder uses the card while abroad or when making purchases online in a foreign currency.
  • ACH Fee: 1% charge for processing ACH debit or credit transfers. This fee will be assessed when transferring funds off of the Card.
  • Short-Term Funds Reversal Fee: 2% fee assessed against transfers of funds off the Card which were loaded onto the Card 30 days ago or less. For purposes of this fee, when transferring funds off the Card, the Account Owner is deemed to transfer funds that have been loaded for the longest amount of time first. This fee is separate from, and in addition to, the ACH fee.

5.12  Card Security. The Business Administrator and Account Owner Authorized Users should treat the Card with the same care as cash. Always protect the Card and keep it in a safe place. Do not send a Card number in an email or text message. Make sure Card and Access Information is secured with encryption when used to perform transactions over the Internet or wireless networks.

5.13  Lost or Stolen Card. The Card Account is a commercial Card Account and does not provide protections for lost or stolen Card Accounts or unauthorized transactions except as expressly stated in this Agreement. Cards should be treated like wallet cash. Until the Business Administrator or an Authorized User reports a Card as lost or stolen or reports an unauthorized transaction on a Card Account, Account Owner shall be fully responsible for all transactions, even if that Card is lost, stolen or used for unauthorized transactions. Customer Service must be contacted IMMEDIATELY if the Business Administrator or an Authorized User believes: (a) a Card has been lost or stolen, (b) someone has gained unauthorized access to any Access Information, or (c) someone other than the Business Administrator has transferred or may transfer funds from the Card Account. Reporting a lost/stolen Card or unauthorized transactions through 833-998-2462 or by logging into the Website to deactivate the Card Account is the best way to minimize possible losses. If the Authorized User has both a virtual and a physical Card and one of those Cards is reported as lost or stolen, both Cards will be canceled and new Cards will be issued. Unless we authorize a transaction after a Card has been blocked (See Section 5.27 – Our Liability to Account Owner), Account Owner is responsible for all unauthorized transactions initiated and fees incurred from the unauthorized use of a Card Failure to promptly notify us could result in the Account Owner losing ALL of the money in the Card Account.

5.14  Using the Card. Cards may not be used for ATM cash withdrawals or cash back at the point-of-sale and may not be used for business payroll payments. An Authorized User may use a Card to make purchases at any merchant that accepts Visa debit cards or debit cards of other networks in which the Bank participates, subject to the available Sub-Account balance, the transaction limits and transaction restrictions outlined below, and the other terms and condition of this Agreement.  If an Authorized User uses a Card number without presenting the Card (such as for a mail order, telephone, or Internet purchase), the legal effect will be the same as if the Authorized User used the Card itself. Each time an Authorized User uses a Card, Account Owner authorizes us to reduce the value available in the applicable Sub-Account in the amount of the transaction plus any applicable fees. An Authorized User shall not be permitted exceed the amount funds that are available funds in the applicable Sub-Account. Nevertheless, if a transaction exceeds the amount of available funds as described in Section 5.19, Account Owner will be fully liable to us for the full amount of the transaction plus any applicable fees. We may refuse to process a transaction, or temporarily “freeze” the Card Account or any Sub-Account if we notice transactions that are unusual or appear suspicious, or use of the Card Account that are not consistent with its intended use, in which case we will notify the Business Administrator.

5.15  Merchant Holds on Available Funds. When an Authorized User uses a Card or Card number to initiate a transaction at certain merchant locations, websites, or mobile applications such as hotels, restaurants, gas stations, and rental car companies, where the final purchase amount is unknown at the time of authorization, a hold may be placed on the available funds in the applicable Sub-Account for an amount equal to or in excess of the final transaction amount. Those held funds will not be available until the merchant sends us the final transaction amount. Once we receive the final transaction amount, it may take up to seven days for the hold to be removed. Please be advised that an Authorized User may experience difficulties using a Card at unattended vending machines, kiosks, and gas station pumps. If a physical Card is declined at a “pay at the pump” gas station even though the applicable Sub-Account contains sufficient funds, the Authorized User should pay for their purchase inside the station with the cashier. An Authorized User may not use a virtual Card for making purchases at any vending machines, kiosks or gas station pumps.

5.16 Transaction Limits. The maximum amount that can be spent using an individual Card will be based upon the funds made available on the card, as defined by the C2FO Supplier Terms and Conditions.

The maximum amount that can be transferred off of the Card via ACH is $25,000 per transaction, $50,000 per day, and $150,000 per month. In order to protect the Card Account, we may temporarily impose limits on the dollar amount, number, and type of transactions performed using a Card. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to: (a) change the transaction limits; (b) limit, block, or place a hold on certain types of transfers or transactions: and (c) limit, suspend, or block transfers from particular persons, entities, or Sub-Accounts.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to: (a) change the transaction limits; (b) limit, block, or place a hold on certain types of transfers or transactions: and (c) limit, suspend, or block transfers from particular persons, entities, or Sub-Accounts.

5.17  Transaction Restrictions. Account Owner or any Authorized User may not use any Card for online gambling or illegal transactions. The Business Administrator may restrict transactions based on Merchant Category Code or Merchant ID. We may refuse to process any transaction we believe violates the terms of this Agreement.

5.18  Responsibility for Transactions. Account Owner is responsible for all transactions initiated and fees incurred by use of any Card. If the Business Administrator or an Authorized User permits another person to have access to a Card Account number, we will treat this as if the Business Administrator has authorized such person to use the subject Card, and Account Owner will be liable for all transactions and fees incurred by such person, even if they exceed the authorization granted. Account Owner will further be responsible for any transactions made and any fees incurred by an Authorized User even if that Authorized User exceeds the scope of their permissions. If the Business Administrator has requested revocation of an Authorized User’s permissions as descried in Section 5.6, transactions made using the subject Card will be considered unauthorized after that request has been processed.

5.19  Sub-Account Balances. Where Sub-Accounts have been provided for use on the Card, it is important to know the amount of available funds in each Sub-Account. If there are insufficient funds in the applicable Sub-Account to cover a requested Card transaction, that transaction will be declined. If an Authorized User learns that the funds in the Sub-Account are insufficient, they can request that the merchant charge a part of the purchase to the Card and pay the remaining amount with cash or another payment card. These are called “split transactions.” Some merchants do not allow split transactions. Account Owner acknowledges and agrees that the funds available for Card transactions will be limited to the available funds in the applicable Sub-Account that are not subject to hold.  Neither Account Owner nor any Authorized User may use any funds added to the Card Account in error. No transaction that could create a negative balance for any Sub-Account shall be permitted; provided, however, that such balances may occur inadvertently, for example, as the result of adjustments made to reverse an error or reflect a merchant adjustment. If a Sub-Account has a negative balance, Account Owner agrees that: (a) we may transfer funds from the Card Account to the applicable Sub-Account in the amount of the negate balance; (b) we may automatically apply any subsequent deposits to the Card Account to the applicable Sub-Account in the amount of the negative balance; or (c) if there are insufficient funds in the Card Account, require Account Owner to pay us on demand by a personal check, money order, or other payment method authorized by us for the amount of the negative balance. If such payments are requested, they should be mailed to us at the address provided below or the address stated in the notice requesting payment.

5.20  Negative Balance and Collections. A negative balance may occur from time to time on the Card Account for various reasons, including without limitation a failure to receive payment from Card Account customers for approved invoices already funded on the Card Account. In the event the Card Account has a negative balance for any reason, (i) any subsequent deposits or loads into your Card Account will first be applied to the negative balance, and (ii) we reserve the right to require that Account Owner immediately forward payment to us (in the amount of any such negative balance), such payment to be made by a personal check, money order, or other payment method authorized by us for the amount of the negative balance. If such payments are requested, such payments should be mailed to us at the address stated in the notice requesting payment or, if no address is specified in such notice, the address provided below. If Account Owner does not submit payment to us to cover the negative balance within thirty (30) days of our written request for payment, or if the Card Account has a negative balance more than three (3) times in any thirty (30) day period, we have the right to cancel the Card Account at any time thereafter. Additionally, we have the right to pursue collection, including the right to collect funds equal to or less than the negative balance, plus interest at the highest rate allowable by law, using any rights and remedies available at law or in equity or otherwise. Account Owner agrees to pay all reasonable costs, including attorneys’ fees, that we incur to collect amounts owed by Account Owner.

5.21  Transaction History. The Business Administrator may obtain information about the available funds in the Card Account or any Sub-Account and a 60-day history of all Card Account transactions on the Website.

5.22  Account Alerts. If the Business Administrator or any Authorized User provides an email address      to us, we will send that person important notices via email. All such notices shall be deemed to have been given to Account Owner.  In addition, if the Business Administrator or any Authorized User provides a mobile phone number or other text message address to us, we shall assume that Account Owner has obtained all legally required consent(s) of such persons to receive texts at that number or address. For the avoidance of doubt, Account Owner accepts sole and complete responsibility for obtaining all such consent(s) and agrees to notify us promptly of any changes in the applicable contact information. The Business Administrator or Authorized User may change the frequency of notifications we provide at any time by updating their notification setting on the Website. Third-party data charges and message fees may apply.

5.23  Transactions in Foreign Currencies. If an Authorized User makes a purchase using a Card in a currency other than in U.S. dollars, the amount of funds deducted from the applicable Sub-Account will be converted by Visa into U.S. dollars. The exchange rate applied will be selected Visa from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets on the applicable central processing date, which may vary from the rate Visa itself receives or the government-mandated rate. The exchange rate used on the central processing date may be different than the rate that was in effect on the date Account Owner performed the transaction.

5.24  Receipts. An Authorized User should receive a receipt for each Card transaction. Account Owner agrees to retain, verify, and reconcile Card transactions against those receipts.

5.25  Refunds and Disputes. An Authorized User will not receive cash refunds for Card transactions. If a merchant gives an Authorized User a credit for merchandise returns or adjustments, the merchant may do so by processing a credit adjustment, which we will credit to the available funds in Sub-Account. We are not responsible for the delivery, quality, safety, legality, or any other aspects of goods or services purchased using a Card All such Card transaction disputes must be addressed and handled directly with the merchant from whom those goods or services were purchased.

5.26  Confidentiality. The privacy and security of non-public personal information is very important to us. We safeguard the information we receive regarding the employees and agents of our business customers a manner consistent with how we safeguard customer information.  Account Owner agrees that we. may disclose information to third parties regarding the Business Administrator, any Authorized User, the Card Account, or Card transactions: (a) as necessary to effect, administer, or enforce the Card transaction requested; (b) to protect against or prevent actual or potential fraud, unauthorized transactions, or other liability; (c) as necessary to comply with government agency or court orders; or (d) as permitted and required by applicable law.

5.27  Replacement Cards. The expiration date of a virtual Card is identified on the front of the Card. The expiration date of a physical Card is identified on the front or the back of the Card. If there is a positive balance of funds in the applicable Sub-Account upon expiration of the subject Card and this Agreement is not in default, we may issue a new Card. We may also issue a new Card when the Card expires even if there are no funds in the applicable Sub Account. If a Card must be replaced for any reason, the applicable Authorized User should contact the Business Administrator, who must contact Customer Service. Please note that User Information must be provided whenever a replacement Card is requested.

5.28  Our Liability to Account Owner. If we do not complete a transfer of funds to or from the Card Account or any Sub-Account on time or in the correct amount according to these Terms, we may be liable to Account Owner for the losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable if: (a) through no fault of ours, Account Owner does not have enough available funds in the Card Account or an applicable Sub-Account to perform the requested transaction; (b) circumstances beyond our reasonable control (such as fire, flood, water damage, power failure, strike, labor dispute, computer breakdown, telephone line disruption, or natural disaster) prevent or delay the transfer despite reasonable precautions taken by us; (c) the system, or point-of-sale terminal was not working properly and the Business Administrator or applicable Authorized User knew of the problem when the subject Card transaction was initiated; (d) funds in the Card Account, including any Sub-Account, are subject to legal process or are otherwise not available for transactions; (e) a merchant refuses to accept a Card; (f) access to the funds in applicable Sub-Account is blocked because the Business Administrator or Authorized User reported the subject Card as lost or stolen; or (g) if we have reason to believe the subject transaction is unauthorized.

We must hear from the Business Administrator no later than 60 days after the earlier of the date Account Owner electronically accessed the Card Account, if the error could be viewed in Card Account electronic transaction history, or the date we sent the FIRST written transaction history on which the error appeared.

We may terminate this Agreement in the event a change of control, reorganization, restructuring, conversion, consolidation, division or merger of Account Owner or any Principal Owner.

5.40  DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION. For any and all controversies, disputes, demands, claims, or causes of action between Account Owner  and us (including the interpretation and scope of this Section 5.39 and the arbitrability of the controversy, dispute, demand, claim, or cause of action) relating to the Program, Card Accounts, or these Terms (as well as any related or prior agreement that Account Owner may have had with us), Account Owner and we agree to resolve any such controversy, dispute, demand, claim, or cause of action exclusively through binding and confidential arbitration and the terms of this Section 5.39. The arbitration will take place in the federal judicial district located in the borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, or in the alternative, may be conducted telephonically at Account Owner request. As used in this Section, “we” and “us” mean Bank and its subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, and assigns and all of Bank’s employees, officers, directors, agents, and representatives. In addition, “we” and “us” includes any third party providing any product, service, or benefit in connection with the Card Accounts or these Terms (as well as any related or prior agreement that Account Owner may have had with us) if such third party is named as a co-party with us in any controversy, dispute, demand, claim, or cause of action subject to this Section.

Arbitration will be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state arbitration law. The arbitration will be conducted before one commercial arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes. 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 and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “Rules and Procedures”).  Notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may seek emergency equitable relief in federal court if it has jurisdiction or, if it does not, in a state court located in the federal judicial district of Account Owner’s principal place of business residence in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and each party hereby agrees to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within the federal judicial district of Account Owner’s principal place of business for such purpose. A request for interim measures will not be deemed a waiver of the obligation to arbitrate.

Account Owner agrees to the following in connection with any arbitration: (a) no class or similar group arbitration will be permitted; (b) the arbitration will be confidential, and neither Account Owner 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; (c) subject to Section 5.37 (Limitation of Liability), the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are expressly permitted by applicable law; and (d) 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.

Account Owner understands and agrees that, by agreeing to these Terms:

  • ACCOUNT OWNER IS GIVING UP ACCOUNT OWNER RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY; and
  • ACCOUNT OWNER IS GIVING UP ACCOUNT OWNER RIGHT TO HAVE A COURT RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN US.

This Section will survive termination of the Card Account or these Terms as well as any voluntary payment of any debt in full by Account Owner or bankruptcy by Account Owner, or any bankruptcy by us. With the exception of subparts (a) and (b) 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, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures, 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, illegal or conflicting part was not contained herein.
