We may revise this user agreement and any of the policies listed above from time to time. Some of the features outlined in this user agreement may not yet be functional, live, currently implemented, or even currently on the TodayPay product roadmap. Implementation of features is at the sole discretion of TodayPay. The revised version will be effective at the time we post it, unless otherwise noted.

- Opening a TodayPay Account
We offer accounts for two types of purposes: personal accounts and approved merchant accounts. You may only have one personal account. To create a personal account, you must be a resident of the United States or one of its territories, be at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your state of residence and use a cellular/wireless telephone number that you own. Your TodayPay account is a personal account unless you have received our express written approval to open a business account. In addition to this agreement, approved business accounts are also subject to the Master Subscription Agreement.
Personal TodayPay accounts let you do things like:
-
- Request refunds from authorized retailers
- Make payments with friends
- Transfer funds for purchases of goods and services from authorized retailers
- Withdraw funds thru multiple payment methods
- Withdraw funds in multiple currencies
We may also offer you the ability to open a Teen Account. A “Teen Account” is a sub-account linked to your personal account that can be used by an individual you authorize. The authorized individual must be between 13 and 17 years old at the time of opening the Teen Account (a “Teen User”). You can add funds to a Teen Account using your personal account. Any activity conducted by a Teen User in connection with the Teen Account or the TodayPay services is treated as your activity under this user agreement, and you will be responsible for all such activity.
When we refer generally to “your TodayPay account” that includes your personal account and any Teen Account you have opened (whereas references to your “personal account” do not include any linked Teen Account). References to any “balance” or “funds” in your TodayPay account includes funds held in any associated Teen Account, which you agree are owned by you.
Keep confidential any credentials used to access your TodayPay account and the TodayPay services. You must keep your phone number, email address and other contact information current in your TodayPay account profile.
- Closing a TodayPay Account
You may close your account and terminate your relationship with us without cost, but you will remain liable for all obligations related to your TodayPay account even after the TodayPay account is closed. Any incomplete transactions or transfers must be completed or canceled and you must transfer any funds from any personal or business profiles of your TodayPay account before closing it. To the extent you have linked Teen Accounts, funds must be transferred out of the Teen Account before you can close your TodayPay account. In certain cases, you may not close your TodayPay account, including:
-
- To evade an investigation.
- If you have a pending transaction or an open dispute or claim.
- If you owe amounts to us.
- If your TodayPay account is subject to a hold, limitation or reserve.
If your TodayPay account is closed for any reason, any business profile and any TodayPay Debit Card affiliated with your account will be canceled.
- Link or unlink a Payment Method
You can link or unlink certain payment methods such as a debit card, credit card, or a U.S. bank account to your TodayPay account. Please keep your payment method information current (e.g. credit card number and expiration date). If this information changes, we may update it using information and third party sources available to us without any action on your part. If you do not want us to update your card information, you may contact your issuer to request this or remove your payment method from your TodayPay account.
- Authorization to Charge your Payment Method
General authorization to charge your payment method
By linking a payment method to your TodayPay account, as described in the section Link or Unlink a Payment Method, you authorize us to charge such linked payment method for the payment amount and any applicable fees (a) whenever you choose such linked payment method to send funds or buy something using TodayPay, (b) in connection with any errors, claims, or disputes, and (c) for amounts you owe to us.
Authorization of specific transactions
Each time you make a withdrawal, or make a payment, as described in the section Making Payments, or buy something, as described in the section Buying Something from Authorized Merchants, you authorize us to charge the selected payment method or backup payment method for the payment amount and any applicable fees. If the amount of your transaction changes after checkout (for example, if the amount increases because you add another product or service like expedited delivery or if the amount decreases or is split because a portion of your order is canceled or delayed), you authorize us to charge the selected or backup payment method in the revised amount. If you have entered into an automatic payment agreement with a merchant seller, you authorize us to charge your selected payment method each time you make a purchase from the merchant seller, including via recurring or installment payments or any other future transactions scheduled in advance. If your selected payment method cannot be charged, you authorize us to charge the relevant backup payment method linked to your TodayPay account
Revoking your authorization
You can revoke our authority to charge a payment method by unlinking that payment method from your TodayPay account as described in the section Link or Unlink a Payment Method. Such revocation only applies to transactions that are initiated after you unlink the payment method. It does not affect our authority to charge the payment method for a transaction you have already authorized, including our authority to re-present a charge to the unlinked payment method or charge the unlinked payment method as a backup payment method if the original transaction occurred before you unlinked that payment method. Unlinking a payment method also does not revoke our authority to charge or credit the payment method in connection with an error, dispute, or claim with respect to a transaction initiated before you unlinked that payment method. If you have a payment method selected for a connected business or merchant seller, you may not be able to unlink that payment method until you select a different payment method in the merchant seller business website or app, or by updating the settings in your TodayPay app or by disconnecting the business as explained in the section Billing agreement payments and preauthorized payments. If there is a pending transaction with a merchant seller where you have authorized the transaction, but the merchant seller has not yet completed the transaction, you may not be able to unlink the payment method used until the transaction is completed or you select an alternative payment method.
- Using funds sent to you via TodayPay
To hold a TodayPay balance and use funds sent to you for TodayPay withdrawals, payments to other users or authorized merchant sellers, we must verify the required identifying information you provide to us. The required identifying information is:
-
- For a personal account or a business profile of an unincorporated business/sole proprietorship: name, physical address, date of birth, and social security or taxpayer identification number; or
- For a business profile of any other type of business legal entity: business name, business address, taxpayer identification number, and proof of business existence.
Until you verify the required identifying information, you will be able to receive funds into your TodayPay account, but you will only be able to transfer the funds you receive out of TodayPay to a linked bank account or debit card. You will also not be able to establish a Teen Account until we verify the required identifying information you provide to us.
- Receiving funds into Your TodayPay Account
If we have verified the required identifying information that you provide to us, TodayPay may offer you the ability to add funds to your TodayPay balance from a linked bank account, subject to the applicable fees found on the Fees page. Otherwise, you cannot add funds. Additionally, at TodayPay’s discretion, you may use the payment methods linked to your TodayPay account to fund transactions and you don’t need a TodayPay balance to send funds or buy something using your TodayPay account
- Withdrawing or Transferring Value out of Your TodayPay Account
Value in your TodayPay account may be transferred out of TodayPay by:
-
- Transferring it via standard transfer to a bank account or an eligible debit card linked to your TodayPay account, subject to any applicable fees that may relevant now or in the future that can be found on the Fees page, or
- Transferring it via Instant Transfer to an eligible debit card or bank account linked to your TodayPay account, subject to any applicable fees that may relevant now or in the future that can be found on the Fees page.
- Transferring it via standard transfer to receive a Gift Card, subject to any applicable fees that may be relevant now or in the future that can be found on the Fees page.

You can manage linked payment methods in the Payment Methods section of your TodayPay account settings. We may set limits on your bank transfers and debit card transfers, and you can view bank transfer and debit card transfers limits in the Settings of the TodayPay app, the Business Profile Payment and Transfer Limits page, and the Charity Profile Payment and Transfer Limits page, as applicable. The fees applicable to transferring funds out of TodayPay can be found on the Fees page. Fees and limits may change from time to time in our sole discretion. Funds in a Teen Account cannot be transferred to a linked bank account or debit card. funds in a Teen Account may be withdrawn using the Teen Debit Card at eligible Automated Teller Machines (“ATMs”), subject to any ATM fees and applicable withdrawal limits, or a Teen User may send it to your personal account so that you can then transfer it to an eligible bank account or debit card linked to your personal account.
Bank transfer reviews
We review account and transaction activity at various times, including when bank transfers are initiated. This review checks for, among other things, suspicious or illegal activity, and whether your TodayPay account activity and the activity of users with whom you (or a Teen User) have transacted comply with this agreement. In connection with our review process, you may be required to provide us with additional information and/or documentation to verify your identity. We may limit your TodayPay account and access to the funds in it or that is sent to you (or a Teen User) until verification is completed.
Reviews may result in:
-
- delayed, blocked or canceled transfers;
- funds or payments being held by us;
- funds or payments being applied to amounts you owe to us or used to offset loss incurred by us;
- account limitation, suspension or termination;
- funds or payments being seized to comply with a court order, warrant or other legal process; and/or
- funds or payments you previously received being reversed (i.e., sent back to the sender or to the card or bank account that was used to fund the payment).
Among other reasons, we may take the above actions if you (or a Teen User) knowingly or unknowingly were a participant in a payment that was made from a stolen card, compromised bank account, or compromised TodayPay account, or if you (or a Teen User) were a participant in a transaction for goods and services among personal accounts (and/or Teen Accounts).
TODAYPAY SHOULD ONLY BE USED TO TRANSACT WITH PEOPLE YOU KNOW AND TRUST. DO NOT USE TODAYPAY TO TRANSACT WITH PEOPLE YOU DON’T KNOW, ESPECIALLY IF THE PAYMENT INVOLVES THE PURCHASE OR SALE OF A GOOD OR SERVICE. UNLESS TODAYPAY EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZES YOUR PAYMENT FOR A GOOD OR SERVICE, FOR EXAMPLE, WITHDRAWALS TO YOUR NOMINATED BANK ACCOUNT, TRANSACTIONS WITH AN AUTHORIZED MERCHANT OR BUSINESS PROFILE, TRANSACTIONS MADE WITH YOUR TODAYPAY DEBIT CARD OR TEEN DEBIT CARD, OR PAYMENTS THAT ARE IDENTIFIED AS FOR GOODS AND SERVICES, PAYING OR RECEIVING PAYMENT FOR A GOOD OR A SERVICE IS PROHIBITED. IF YOU OR A TEEN USER USE TODAYPAY TO CONDUCT SUCH A TRANSACTION AND WE LATER REVERSE THE PAYMENT (WHICH COULD OCCUR IF IT IS DETERMINED THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS VIOLATED OR IF THE PAYMENT WAS MADE USING A COMPROMISED PAYMENT METHOD OR ACCOUNT), YOU OR A TEEN USER COULD LOSE BOTH THE UNDERLYING GOODS OR SERVICES AND THE FUNDS SENT FOR THEM.
- Account Statements
You have the right to receive account statements showing your TodayPay account activity. You may view your TodayPay account statements by logging into your TodayPay account on the TodayPay website.
- Making Payments
Using your personal or business profile, you can send funds to, or request funds from, a TodayPay user using the compose payments feature in your TodayPay account. Using your personal or business profile, you can also request funds from a TodayPay user by splitting certain purchases. They will have to accept any charge request before you are sent funds. When you accept a charge request sent by another TodayPay user, you will send them funds. Charity profiles may not send funds or charge requests to TodayPay users. Teen Users may send funds to or request funds from a TodayPay user using the compose payments feature, and the funds will be sent from or received into the Teen Account. At the discretion of TodayPay, features to send or request funds, may be disabled depending on the user profile and product features available, now or in the future.
- Payments with friends
You can send value to or request value from a friend using the Pay and Request feature in your TodayPay account (sometimes called “personal payments” or “peer-to-peer/P2P payments”). You can send value to, or request value, from a friend, even if they don’t have a TodayPay account at the time you send the payment or value transfer, using their email address or mobile number. If the friend does not have a TodayPay account, they can claim the payment by opening a TodayPay account. If they don’t claim any value or funds sent within 30 days of the date it is sent, the payment will be canceled and any funds (including any fees you were charged) will be sent back to you. Teen Users may send value to. or request value from a friend, and the value will be sent from or received into the Teen Account.
- Payments for goods and services
Payments for the sale of goods or services made using the Pay and Request feature in your TodayPay account must either be identified as for goods and services or sent to merchant seller business profiles. You may not send regularly recurring payments using the Pay and Request feature in your TodayPay account (for example, every month or otherwise on a routine billing cycle). Teen Users may use the Pay and Request feature to make payments for goods or services; however, Teen Accounts cannot be used to request or receive payments for goods and services.
Merchant sellers must keep appropriate transaction documentation and we may request such information to investigate claims made at the request of TodayPay or TodayPay partner. If a merchant seller does not provide adequate documentation, or we determine, in our sole discretion, that a claim qualifies for dispute or reversal, TodayPay may initiate a refund to the originating account by reversing the payment from the merchant seller’s business account or vice versa, as explained further in section Refunds for Transactions.
- Donations
You (and Teen Users) can send donations to charity profiles on TodayPay. The receipt received from TodayPay is not a tax receipt. Charity profiles are responsible for sending tax receipts separately and TodayPay will share your email address (or the Teen User’s email address, if the Teen User has made the donation) with any charity profile to which you send a donation for tax receipt purposes. This product feature can be enabled or disabled at TodayPay’s sole discretion.
- Fees and limits
We may, at our discretion, impose limits on the amount and/or the number of payments and transfers you or a Teen User can send and receive. You can view any sending limit on our Settings page (which includes limits for Teen Accounts), as applicable. The fees applicable to receiving, withdrawing and sending funds or value in the account can be found on the Fees page. If a credit card is used as the payment method when sending funds, the card issuer may also charge a cash-advance fee. In order to manage risk, we may limit the payment methods available to make a payment. Fees and limits may change from time to time in our sole discretion.

Buying Something from Authorized Merchants
How to buy something from an authorized merchant’s website, mobile app, or in-person:
You (and Teen Users) may have the ability to use TodayPay as a payment method at checkout at an authorized merchant's website or mobile app and can make in-person purchases with a QR code. An “authorized merchant” means a merchant that has been authorized by us to accept TodayPay as a payment method for purchases of goods and services through the merchant’s website, mobile app, or in-person by using a TodayPay QR code. This includes, for example, buying something online using your mobile phone through an authorized merchant’s website or mobile app and selecting TodayPay as your payment method at checkout, or buying something from an authorized merchant in-person by using a TodayPay QR code.
Some merchants may require you to have a payment method linked to your TodayPay account in order to use TodayPay for purchases with the merchant.
In order to manage risk, we may limit the payment methods available for a transaction when you buy something from an authorized merchant.
When you authorize a payment to an authorized merchant, some merchants may take up to 30 days to complete the transaction. In these instances, your payment may appear as a pending transaction in your TodayPay account. In that case, your authorization of the payment will remain valid until the merchant completes the transaction and we may place a temporary hold on the funds in your TodayPay account for the payment amount (but no longer than 30 days). If you used a debit or credit card as the payment method, your debit or credit card issuer also may show a pending authorization for a period of time until they release the hold or receive a completed transaction.
If you use your TodayPay account to pay for an item and you select your bank account as the funding source for the transaction, remember that your TodayPay account is issued to you by TodayPay, Inc. and not your bank. The terms, benefits, and protections associated with your TodayPay account may vary from those that apply to your bank account. If you use your TodayPay account to make a purchase that exceeds the balance in your linked bank account, you could incur overdraft fees, even if you chose not to allow overdrafts with your bank. Similarly, the liability limits applicable to your TodayPay account may differ from those applicable to your bank account.
- Payment review
We review payments made with your TodayPay account at our discretion. When we identify a potentially high-risk payment to an authorized merchant, or potentially high-risk withdrawal from your TodayPay account, we review the transaction more closely before allowing it to proceed. When this happens, we will place a hold on the transaction and take further actions including but not limited to notifying the merchant to delay shipping of the item. As a buyer, this may delay receipt of the item purchased. If we clear the transaction, we will notify the merchant and direct them to ship the item. If we don’t clear the transaction, we will cancel it and return the funds to you, unless we are legally required to take other action including but not limited to holding funds in the TodayPay account until further notice.
- Billing agreement payments and preauthorized payments
You can agree with an authorized merchant to use TodayPay as the payment method for future payments with that merchant. This agreement is between you and the authorized merchant and allows the merchant to take payments from your TodayPay account with your authorization either on a one-time, regular or sporadic basis, depending on the type of billing agreement. A billing agreement may apply to a Teen Account, including for recurring payments. You agree that to the extent a Teen User enters into a billing agreement with an authorized merchant, it is entered into with your consent and that you are responsible for any amounts owed.
“Preauthorized payments” are a type of billing agreement that allow an authorized merchant to receive payments from your TodayPay account on a regularly recurring basis (for example, every month or otherwise on a routine billing cycle), and if such payments will vary in amount, the merchant must provide advance notice of the amount and date of the transfer at least 10 days before the transfer is made. If the merchant provides the option, you or a Teen User may choose to receive this advance notice only when the amount of the preauthorized payment will fall outside a range agreed to with the merchant.
A billing agreement may be canceled by reaching out to the authorized merchant directly, by disconnecting the merchant in your “Connected Businesses” page in the TodayPay app (Connected Merchants to Teen Accounts must be disconnected by the Teen User in the TodayPay app), or by calling TodayPay at (855) 812-4430. Preauthorized payments may be canceled up to 3 Business Days before the date of the next scheduled payment. If a billing agreement is canceled, you may still owe the merchant funds for the purchase or have additional obligations to the merchant for any goods or services that you or a Teen User receive but have not paid for.
- Refunds
When you buy something from an authorized merchant using TodayPay and the transaction is ultimately refunded, the funds will be sent back to you. Refunds for Teen Account transactions will be sent to the Teen Account. funds may not always be refunded to the payment method originally used.
- TodayPay Debit Card
As part of the TodayPay services, you may be offered the opportunity to apply for a TodayPay Visa® (referred to herein as “TodayPay Debit Card”) via a designated website or the TodayPay app. The TodayPay Debit Card is a debit card linked to your TodayPay account, funded by your TodayPay account balance and may be used everywhere Visa is accepted in the United States.

If your TodayPay account is closed for any reason, any affiliated TodayPay Debit Card will be canceled.

If you receive a payment through a business profile or for otherwise selling goods and services(such as when a sender identifies a payment as for goods and services) and that payment is later refunded or invalidated for any reason, you are responsible for the full amount of the payment sent to you plus any fees (including any applicable chargeback fees below).
If you refund a transaction, we'll retain the fees you paid as set out on our Fees page.
In the event of a successful claim under the TodayPay Debit Card Program, we will initiate the refund process. The amount of the refund will be deducted from the profile that received the payment. If the balance in that profile does not cover the payment amount due, plus the fees, this will result in a negative balance, which you owe to us. In that situation, we may use any of the payment methods linked to your profile to cover the amount due. If the payment methods linked to your profile do not cover the amount due, you must immediately add funds to resolve the negative balance. If you don’t, we will take any or all actions as outlined under Amounts Owed to Us.
Payments that are invalidated and reversed
Payments may be invalidated and reversed by us if, among other reasons, we sent the payment to your TodayPay account in error, the funding transaction is declined or reversed, the payment was unauthorized or unfunded, or if the payment was for activities that violated this user agreement or any other agreement with us. If you or a Teen User send or receive a payment that is later invalidated for any reason, you may be liable to us for the full amount of the payment and we may recover the amount of the payment (plus any fees) from you (including from the balance of a Teen Account). We may recover the amount of the payment from either the sender or the recipient of an invalidated payment in our discretion (subject to applicable law). For example, if you send a payment funded by a bank account and the bank informs us it cannot cover the payment due to a lack of funds or a dispute, we may hold you liable for the payment, or if you were the recipient of that payment, we may reverse that payment from your TodayPay account to cover the liability.
When recovering the amount of an invalidated payment from you, we may apply any funds sent to you on TodayPay account, request that you add funds to your TodayPay account for the payment amount and apply that funds to amounts owed, and/or we may:
-
- engage in collection efforts to recover such amounts from you;
- take any or all action as outlined under Amounts Owed to Us; and
- place a limitation or take other action on your TodayPay account as outlined under Restricted Activities and Holds and Limitations.
If we invalidate a payment because the card issuer or originating bank declined or reversed the transaction, then you may be liable for the payment even if you disagree with the decision of the card issuer or originating bank to decline or reverse the payment. If you believe that a payment initiated with your TodayPay account was not authorized, then you must notify us immediately, even if you (or someone else) disputes the transaction with the card issuer or originating bank. Please see below under the heading Reporting an Unauthorized Transaction for information about how to notify us. If you fail to report the unauthorized activity directly to us, then we may recover the amount of the reversed payment from you, as described above.
Chargeback fees
If you receive a debit or credit funded payment in your personal or business profile or that is identified as for goods and services and the buyer pursues a chargeback for the transaction with their card issuer, we may assess a chargeback fee and pass that on to you for payment and collection at our sole discretion.

- Holds and Limitations
What are holds and limitations?
Under certain circumstances, in order to protect TodayPay and the security and integrity of the network that uses the TodayPay services, TodayPay may, in its sole discretion, take account-level or transaction-level actions. A hold may be placed on your TodayPay account, including any associated business or personal profiles.
Our decision about holds and limitations may be based on confidential criteria that are essential to our management of risk and the protection of TodayPay, our customers and/or service providers. We may use proprietary fraud and risk modeling when assessing the risk associated with your TodayPay account. In addition, we may be restricted by regulation or a governmental authority from disclosing certain information to you about such decisions. We have no obligation to disclose the details of our risk management or security procedures to you.
Holds
A hold is an action that TodayPay may take under certain circumstances either at the transaction level or the account level. When TodayPay places a temporary hold on a transaction, the funds are not available to either the sender or the recipient. TodayPay reviews many factors before placing a hold on a transaction, including: account tenure, transaction activity, fraud risk and past disputes.
Holds based on TodayPay’s risk decisions
We may place a hold on transactions involving your TodayPay account if, in our sole discretion, we believe that there may be a high level of risk associated with you, your TodayPay account, or your transactions or that placing such a hold is necessary to comply with state or federal regulatory requirements. We make decisions about whether to place a hold based on a number of factors, including information available to us from both internal sources and third parties.
Risk-based holds may remain in place for up to 180 days from the date the transaction was made. We may release the hold earlier under certain circumstances, but any earlier release is at our sole discretion.
Account Limitations
Limitations may be placed on your account to help protect TodayPay and TodayPay users when we notice restricted activities or activity that appears to us as unusual or suspicious. Limitations also help us collect information necessary for keeping your TodayPay account open. There are several reasons why your TodayPay account could be limited, including:
-
- If we suspect someone could be using your TodayPay account without your knowledge, we’ll limit it for your protection and look into the unusual activity.
- If another financial institution alerts us that someone has used one of your linked payment methods without permission.
- In order to comply with the law.
- If we reasonably believe you have breached this agreement or violated the Acceptable Use Policy or Content Standards.
You will need to resolve any issues with your account before a limitation can be removed. Normally, this is done after you provide us with the information we request. However, if we reasonably believe a risk still exists after you have provided us that information, we may take action to protect us, our users, a third party, or you from reversals, fees, fines, penalties, legal and/or regulatory risks and any other liability.
- Court Orders, Regulatory Requirements or Other Legal Process
If we are notified of a court order or other legal process (including garnishment or any equivalent process) affecting you or a Teen User, or if we otherwise believe we are required to do so in order to comply with applicable law or regulatory requirements, we may be required to take certain actions, including holding payments to/from your TodayPay account, placing a hold or limitation on your TodayPay account, or releasing the funds. We will decide, in our sole discretion, which action is required of us. We do not have an obligation to contest or appeal any court order or legal process involving you, a Teen User, or your TodayPay account. When we implement a hold or limitation as a result of a court order, applicable law, regulatory requirement or other legal process, the hold or limitation may remain in place longer than 180 days.
- Protection from Unauthorized Transactions
To protect yourself from unauthorized activity in your TodayPay account, you should regularly log into your TodayPay account and review your TodayPay account statement, including any Teen Account statement. We will notify you of each transaction by sending an email to your primary email address on file and/or creating a story in your feed, depending on your preferences. You should review these transaction notifications to ensure that each transaction was authorized and accurately completed.
We will protect you from unauthorized activity in your TodayPay account. The following terms and conditions apply with respect to all TodayPay services, other than those associated with the TodayPay Debit Card, Teen Debit Card, or TodayPay Credit Card. For resolution procedures for unauthorized transactions and other errors associated with your use of the TodayPay Debit Card or TodayPay Credit Card or a Teen User’s use of the Teen Debit Card, please see the TodayPay Visa Cardholder Agreement or the TodayPay Visa® Credit Card Account Agreement. When the below protection applies, we will cover you for the full amount of the unauthorized activity as long as you cooperate with us and follow the procedures described below.
What is an Unauthorized Transaction
An “Unauthorized Transaction” occurs when funds are sent from your TodayPay account that you or a Teen User did not authorize and that did not benefit you or a Teen User. For example, if someone steals or fraudulently obtains your password, uses the password to access your TodayPay account, and sends a payment from your TodayPay account, an Unauthorized Transaction has occurred.
What is not considered an Unauthorized Transaction
The following are NOT considered Unauthorized Transactions:
-
- If you or a Teen User grant authority to someone to use your TodayPay account (by giving them the login information) and they exceed the authority you or a Teen User gave them. You are responsible for transactions made in this situation unless you have previously notified us that you no longer authorize transfers by that individual.
- Invalidation and reversal of a payment as a result of the actions described under Refunds, Reversals and Chargebacks.
Reporting an Unauthorized Transaction
If you believe your or your Teen User’s TodayPay login information has been lost or stolen, please contact TodayPay customer service immediately by emailing us at errorresolution@todaypay.me or by mail: TodayPay, Inc., Attn: Error Resolution Dept, P.O. Box 430, Little Silver, NJ 07739, USA.
Tell us AT ONCE if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your or your Teen User’s permission using your respective login information or by other means, or if your or your Teen User’s TodayPay-activated mobile phone has been lost, stolen, or deactivated. You could lose all the funds in your TodayPay account. If you tell us within 60 days after we provide you your TodayPay account statement showing transfers you or your Teen User did not make, you will be eligible for 100% protection for Unauthorized Transactions. For suspected Unauthorized Transactions on Teen Accounts, you must report these to us following the instructions above.
Also, if your TodayPay account statement or Teen Account statement shows transfers that you or a Teen User did not make, including those made with your (or a Teen User’s) TodayPay login information or by other means, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after we provided the statement to you, you may not get back any funds lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the funds if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we may extend the time periods.
Filing a chargeback or reversal with your financial institution related to a TodayPay payment does not constitute notice of an Unauthorized Transaction to us. You must contact us directly to notify us of Unauthorized Transactions by emailing us at errorresolution@todaypay.me or by mail: TodayPay, Inc., Attn: Error Resolution Dept, P.O. Box 430, Little Silver, NJ 07739, USA.

We will tell you the results within 3 Business Days after completing our investigation.
If we determine that there was an error, we will promptly credit the full amount of the error into your TodayPay account within 1 Business Day of our determination. Or, if you have already received a provisional credit, you will be allowed to retain those amounts.

- the error was due to extraordinary circumstances outside our control (such as fire, flood or loss of Internet connection), despite our reasonable precautions.
-
Processing errors are not:

- Our Rights
Our suspension and termination rights
We, in our sole discretion, reserve the right to suspend or terminate this user agreement, your or a Teen User’s access to or use of our websites, software, systems (including any networks and servers used to provide any of the TodayPay services) operated by us or on our behalf or some or all of the TodayPay services for any reason and at any time upon notice to you and, upon termination of this user agreement, the payment to you of any unrestricted funds being held for you.
Security interest
As security for the performance of your obligations under this user agreement, you grant to us a lien on, and security interest in and to, funds in your TodayPay account and any other funds held in our possession.
Amounts owed to us
We may deduct amounts owed to us, in whole or in part, from funds that are sent to your TodayPay account later, either by you or a Teen User or from payments sent to you or a Teen User. While you owe amounts to us, we may:
-
- reverse payments you or a Teen User has sent;
- engage in collection and other efforts to recover such amounts from you, including, but not limited to, making attempts on your linked payment methods to cover the amounts; and
- place a limitation or take other action on your TodayPay account as outlined under Restricted Activities and Holds.
If you have more than one TodayPay account, including any associated Teen Accounts, even if you have those accounts without our authorization and in breach of this agreement, we may set off amounts owed to us in one TodayPay account against funds in or funds sent to your other TodayPay account(s). If you continue using your TodayPay account when you have amounts owed to us, you authorize us to combine amounts owed to us with any debit or transaction sent from your TodayPay account.
In addition to the above, if you or a Teen User has a past due amount owed to us, including our affiliates, we may debit your TodayPay account or accounts held at our affiliates or various products to pay any amounts that are past due. This includes accounts and amounts owed by using our various products such as TodayPay, Xoom or Braintree.
IF YOU HAVE AMOUNTS PAST DUE, YOU SHOULD CONFIRM THAT LINKED PAYMENT METHODS CONTAIN FUNDS SUFFICIENT TO COVER ANY AMOUNTS PAST DUE. THIS WILL HELP YOU AVOID OVERDRAFT OR OTHER FEES YOUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS MAY CHARGE.

- No waiver
Our failure to act with respect to a breach of any of your or a Teen User’s obligations under this user agreement by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.
- Indemnification and Limitation of Liability
In this section, we use the term “TodayPay” to refer to TodayPay, Inc., our parent company, and our affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, joint venturers, service providers and suppliers. Our affiliates include each entity that we control, we are controlled by or we are under common control with.

You must indemnify TodayPay for actions related to your TodayPay account and your and any Teen User's use of the TodayPay services.

Disclaimer of Warranty and Release
No warranty
The TodayPay services are provided “as-is” and without any representation or warranty, whether express, implied or statutory. We specifically disclaim any implied warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
We do not have any control over the products or services provided by merchant sellers who accept TodayPay as a payment method, and we cannot ensure that a TodayPay user or a merchant seller you or a Teen User are dealing with will actually complete the transaction or is authorized to do so. We do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to any part of the TodayPay services, and operation of our websites, software, or systems (including any networks and servers used to provide any of the TodayPay services) operated by us or on our behalf may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control. We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that requests for electronic debits and credits involving bank accounts, debit cards, credit cards, and check issuances are processed in a timely manner but we make no representations or warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete processing because the TodayPay services are dependent upon many factors outside of our control, such as delays in the banking system or the U.S. or international mail service. Some states do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties, so the foregoing disclaimers may not apply.
Your Release of Us
If you or a Teen User have a dispute with any other TodayPay account holder (or Teen User), you release us from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. In entering into this release, you expressly waive any protections (whether statutory or otherwise, for example, California Civil Code § 1542) that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims which you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.

Consumer fraud warning

- Accidental Payment: a scammer sends you a fraudulent payment, claims it was accidental, and asks that you return their funds.
Always use common sense when sending funds. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Only send funds for yourself and not for others. Remember that if you don’t make a Qualifying Payment, you’re not covered by TodayPay Purchase Program. Please let us know immediately if you believe someone is trying to scam or defraud you by contacting us.

If a dispute arises between you and TodayPay regarding the TodayPay services, our goal is to learn about and address your concerns. If we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, we aim to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Disputes between you and TodayPay regarding the TodayPay services may be reported to customer service by emailing at disputes@todaypay.me or by mail: TodayPay, Inc., Attn: Disputes Dept, P.O. Box 430, Little Silver, NJ 07739, USA.
Our Agreement You and TodayPay each agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and TodayPay (including claims or disputes that arise out of or relate to the TodayPay services or your TodayPay account), including without limitation federal and state statutory claims, common law claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration or in small claims court. You or TodayPay may assert claims in small claims court instead of in arbitration if the claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in small claims court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. This Agreement to Arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate. |
Notice of Disputes and Settlement Discussion Before bringing any dispute or claim, you or TodayPay must first send the other party, by certified mail, a completed Notice of Dispute. You should send this notice to TodayPay at: TodayPay, Inc., Attn: Legal Dept, Re: Notice of Dispute, P.O. Box 430, Little Silver, NJ 07739, USA. TodayPay will send any notice to you to the address we have on file associated with your TodayPay account; it is your responsibility to keep your address up to date. To be valid, the Notice of Dispute must contain all information called for in the Notice of Dispute form including but not limited to: your or TodayPay’s signature, the email address and phone number associated with the customer’s TodayPay account, a description of the nature and basis of the claims that are being asserted, a statement of the specific relief sought, and any relevant documents and supporting information reasonably available to the claiming party. If you and TodayPay are unable to resolve the claims described in the notice within 45 days after the notice is received by you or TodayPay, you or TodayPay may commence an arbitration proceeding. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA's website at www.adr.org. The Notice of Dispute requirements are essential in order to give the parties a meaningful chance to resolve disputes informally. |
Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief You and TodayPay agree that each of us may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. Unless both you and TodayPay agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person's or party's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative or class proceeding. Also, the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party's individual claim(s). Any relief awarded cannot affect other TodayPay or TodayPay customers. |
Arbitration Procedures
|
Cost of Arbitration Payment of all AAA or arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, at your request, TodayPay will pay all AAA or arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration. Any request for payment of fees by TodayPay should be submitted by mail to the AAA along with your Demand for Arbitration and TodayPay will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to the AAA. If the value of the relief sought is more than $10,000 and you are able to demonstrate that the costs of accessing arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of accessing a court for purposes of pursuing litigation on an individual basis, TodayPay will pay as much of the AAA or arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of accessing the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the event the arbitrator determines that either the substance of your or TodayPay claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, then you or TodayPay may seek to recover from you or TodayPay any fees it paid, including attorneys’ fees, to the extent permitted by the AAA’s rules and applicable law. |
Severability With the exception of any of the provisions in the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief section above, if a court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If a court decides that any of the provisions in the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief section above is invalid or unenforceable because it would prevent the exercise of a non-waivable right to pursue public injunctive relief, then any dispute regarding the entitlement to such relief (and only that relief) must be severed from arbitration and may be litigated in court. All other disputes subject to arbitration under the terms of the Agreement to Arbitrate shall be arbitrated under its terms. |
Opt Out Procedure You can choose to reject this Agreement to Arbitrate (“opt-out”) by mailing us a written opt-out notice. For new TodayPay users, the opt-out notice must be postmarked no later than 30 days after the date you accept the User Agreement for the first time. You must mail the opt-out notice to TodayPay, Inc., Attn: Legal Dept, Re: TodayPay Opt-Out Notice, P.O. Box 430, Little Silver, NJ 07739, USA.. For your convenience, we are providing an opt-out notice form you must complete and mail to opt-out of this Agreement to Arbitrate. You must complete this form by providing all the information it calls for, including your name, address, phone number, TodayPay username, and the email address(es) used to log in to the TodayPay account(s) to which the opt-out applies. You must sign the opt-out notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way you can opt-out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. If you opt-out of this Agreement to Arbitrate, all other parts of the User Agreement will continue to apply. Opting out of this Agreement to Arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us. |
Future Amendments to this Agreement to Arbitrate Notwithstanding any provision in the User Agreement to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any amendment to this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than an amendment to any notice address or website link provided herein) in the future, that amendment shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against TodayPay or you prior to the effective date of the amendment. The amendment shall apply to all other disputes or claims governed by this Agreement to Arbitrate that have arisen or may arise between you and TodayPay. We will notify you of amendments to this Agreement to Arbitrate by providing notice through email at least 21 days before the effective date of the amendments. If you do not agree to these amended terms, you may close your TodayPay account within the 21-day period and you will not be bound by the amended terms. |
