Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief
YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE BANK OR ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTY 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 THE BANK AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON OR PARTY 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 INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.
Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution
The Bank and Indemnified Parties are always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to your satisfaction by emailing customer support at support@accrewmoney.com. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (Notice). The Notice to the Bank or Indemnified Party should be sent to Accrew, Inc. 222 W Merchandise Mart Plaza #1212, Chicago, IL 60654. The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (b) set forth the specific relief sought. If you do not resolve the claim with the Bank or Indemnified Party within 60 calendar days after the Notice is received, you or the Bank or Indemnified Party, as applicable, may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by any party will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or the Bank is entitled.
Arbitration Procedures
Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association (AAA) rules and procedures, including the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the AAA Rules), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA consumer arbitration page, http://www.adr.org/consumer_arbitration. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of this Agreement as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under this Agreement and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
Unless the parties to the arbitration agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination will be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
Costs of Arbitration
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the Arbitration Fees) will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. If the value of the relief sought is $75,000 or less, at your request, the Bank will pay all Arbitration Fees. If the value of relief sought is more than $75,000 and you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees, the Bank will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, the Bank will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys' fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
Confidentiality
All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.
Severability
If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief section above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief section are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement will be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of this Arbitration Agreement will continue to apply.
Future Changes to this Arbitration AGREEMENT
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Bank makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you have a Accrew Account, you may reject any such change by sending the Bank written notice within 30 days of the change to the Notice Address. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted this Agreement (or accepted any subsequent changes to this Agreement).
This Fee Schedule lists the fees that may be applicable to your Accrew Account. You agree to pay all fees applicable to your Accrew Account. We reserve the right to add or change fees at a later time, and we will notify you of any changes to our fees and this Fee Schedule, as required by applicable law. We may subtract these fees from your balance, even if the fee makes your balance negative.
PURPOSE. The information here describes our policy of holding deposited items in a Deposit Account before funds are made available to you for withdrawal.
DETERMINING THE AVAILABILITY OF YOUR DEPOSIT. Our policy is to delay the availability of funds from your deposits. The length of the delay varies based on the type of deposit as set forth below. During the delay, you may not withdraw the funds, and we will not pay transactions from your Deposit Account using these funds.
The length of the delay is counted in Business Days from the day of your deposit. If you make a deposit before 2:00PM PT on a Business Day, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after 2:00PM PT or on a day that is not a Business Day, we will consider the deposit made on the next Business Day.
Same Day Availability. Electronic direct deposits (e.g., ACH, person-to-person transfers, and other EFTs your Deposit Account supports) will be available on the day we receive your deposit.
Next Day Availability. Funds from the following deposits are available on the first Business Day after the day we receive your deposit:
● The first $200.00 of check deposits.
Second Business Day. Unless otherwise provided by this Agreement, all other funds from deposits will be made on the second Business Day after the day of your deposit.
Longer Delays May Apply. Funds you deposit may be delayed for longer than two Business Days under the following circumstances:
● We believe a you initiated will not be honored;
● Your deposits total more than $2,500 in any one day;
● You have overdrawn your Deposit Account repeatedly in the last six months; or
● There is an emergency, such as failure of communications or our systems.
● If we delay availability for one of these reasons, funds may not be available until the seventh Business Day after the day of your deposit. We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the funds will be available. If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available.
Special Rules for New Accounts. If you are a new customer, the following special rules will apply during the first 60 days your Deposit Account is open.
● Funds from electronic direct deposits to your Deposit Account will be available on the first Business Day after we receive the deposit.
● Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $2,500 of a day's total deposits of cashier's, certified, teller's, traveler's, and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first Business Day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions.
● The excess over $2,500 will be available no later than the ninth Business Day after the day of your deposit.
● Funds from all other deposits will be available on the third Business Day after the day of your deposit.
Your Responsibility for Deposits. Even if we have made funds available to you and you have withdrawn the funds, you are still responsible for deposits that are returned to us unpaid and for any other problems involving your deposit.
Electronic Fund Transfers: Your Rights and Responsibilities
This disclosure contains important information about your use of electronic fund transfer (EFT) services provided by the Bank in connection with your Accrew Account. Whenever you accept or authorize EFTs to your Deposit Account, you agree to these terms and conditions, in addition to any other applicable limitations in this Agreement concerning deposits to and withdrawals from your Deposit Account. Please read this document carefully and retain it for future reference.
Business Days. Our Business Days are every day except Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays on which banks in [Tennessee] are legally authorized to be closed.
Types of Available EFTs
● Online ACH Transfers. You may use the App and request ACH transfers between your Deposit Account and a Linked External Account.
● P2P Transfers. You can make or receive transfers between your Deposit Account and the Deposit Account of another Accrew user, using the person-to-person transfer services (P2P Transfer) provided in the App. P2P Transfers are subject to additional terms and conditions.
Limits on the Type, Frequency or Amount of EFTs. Your Deposit Account may be subject to limitations on the amount or number of withdrawals that you may make from your Deposit Account, including EFTs. Please see Article IV of this Agreement and the Truth in Savings Disclosures. For security reasons, we may also, in our sole discretion, set limits on the dollar amounts of EFTs and on the number of EFTs that may be requested or initiated. To protect the security of the Bank or your Deposit Account, we may suspend your use of EFTs, as permitted by law.
Managing Your Account Balance. You agree that the amount of any EFT debit transaction you authorize will not exceed the Available Balance in your Deposit Account used to make the transaction, or your Spending Limit. We do not have to allow any EFT that would create an overdraft in your Deposit Account. We may in our sole discretion choose to permit an EFT that would create an overdraft in your Deposit Account. If we are unable to complete an EFT or perform any other EFT service for any reason associated with your Deposit Account, the EFT or other service may not be completed and we will not notify you unless required by applicable law.
Your Rights and Responsibilities
The use of EFT services described in this Agreement creates certain rights and responsibilities regarding these services as described below.
Documentation of Your EFTs
Periodic Statements. All EFT transactions will be reported on your periodic statement. See Section II.A.8 of this Agreement for more information.
Direct Deposits. If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your Deposit Account at least once every 60 days, the company making the deposit may tell you every time they send us the money. You may also email us at support@accrewmoney.com to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.
Confirmation. You may write to us at support@accrewmoney.com to find out whether any EFT you request was successfully completed.
Preauthorized and Other Regular (Automatic) Debits
Right to Stop Payment and Procedure for Doing So
If you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of your Deposit Account, you can stop any of the payments. Here is how:
Email to us at support@accrewmoney.com in time for us to receive your request three Business Days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you contact us to stop a payment, please have the following information ready: your account number, the date the transfer is to be made, to whom the transfer is being made, and the amount of the scheduled transfer. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after you call. We may charge you (see Fee Schedule for exact fees) for each stop-payment order you give. Stop-payment orders may expire after six months from the date of your stop-payment request, and you may be required to renew it in order to ensure its continued effectiveness.
Liability for Failure to Stop Payment of Preauthorized Transfer
If you order us to stop a preauthorized automatic debit three Business Days or more before the transfer is scheduled and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
Notice of Varying Amounts
If you have authorized regular payments out of your Deposit Account, and these regular payments may vary in amount, we or the person you are going to pay will tell you, 10 days before each payment, when it will be made and how much it will be. You may choose instead to get this notice only when the payment would differ by more than a certain amount from the previous payment, or when the amount would fall outside certain limits that you set.
Our Refusal to Pay a Preauthorized or Other Regular (Automatic) Debit
We reserve the right to refuse to pay a regular (automatic) debit, for example, if your Deposit Account has insufficient funds to cover such transfer or if we are unable to verify the ownership of or other information about the account to which the funds will be transferred. You may write to us at support@accrewmoney.com to request information about a refusal by us to pay a regular (automatic) debit.
Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers
During your online Accrew Account set-up, you will be invited to register your phone number and create Access Credentials to protect your Accrew Account from unauthorized access. You are responsible for maintaining ownership of the mobile device associated with the phone number and security of your other Access Credentials.
Tell us AT ONCE if you believe that any Access Credentials or device you use to access your Accrew Account has been lost or stolen, that an EFT has been made without your permission, or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your Deposit Account without your authorization. You may write to us at support@accrewmoney.com or such other address as we may provide to you from time to time). Using our mobile chat messenger from the Accrew application is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your Deposit Account. If you tell us within two Business Days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Access Credentials or device, your liability will be limited to $50 if someone accesses your Deposit Account without your authorization.
If you DO NOT tell us within two Business Days after you learn of the lost or theft of your Access Credentials or device, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your Access Credentials or device without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, tell us AT ONCE. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money had you told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
If you grant authority to make transfers to another person who exceeds the authority granted, you are fully liable for any transfers until you notify us that transfers by that person are no longer authorized.
In Case of Errors or Questions about your EFTs
Write to us at support@accrewmoney.com as soon as you can, if you think your statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement or receipt. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we send the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.
(1) Tell us your name and your account number (if any).
(2) Describe the error or transfer you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
(3) Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 Business Days.
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 Business Days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your Deposit Account within 10 Business Days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 Business Days, we may not credit your Deposit Account.
For errors involving new Accrew Accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new Accrew Accounts, we may take up to 20 days to credit your Deposit Account for the amount you think is in error.
We will tell you the results within three Business Days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
Our Liability for Failure to Make a Transfer. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your Deposit Account on time or in the correct amount according to this Agreement, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:
● If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your Deposit Account to make the transfer.
● If the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft line of credit, if you have one.
● If an automated teller machine where you are making a transfer does not have enough cash. If a system or terminal you use to make a transfer was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
● If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
● There may be other exceptions stated in this Agreement.

Amendments. We may change any provision of this Electronic Fund Transfer Agreement in our discretion. If we do, we will give you notice if and to the extent required by applicable law.
Termination. We reserve the right to terminate your use of any or all of our EFT services for any reason and at any time without notifying you.

We provide Personal Information to our Banking Services Provider and other third-party service providers to determine your eligibility for the Services. We rely on the accuracy of the Personal Information you provide us when opening and maintaining your Account.

At any time during the term of this Agreement and as part of your use of the Services, we may require additional Personal Information from you to verify your identity, to open and maintain accounts and aspects of the Services, and to assess your financial condition. You expressly consent and authorize us to retrieve additional Personal Information about you from our vendors and other third parties solely to assess the history and risks and to prevent fraud, including by obtaining information from credit reporting agencies and information bureaus, and you authorize and direct such third parties to compile and provide such information to us. You acknowledge that this may include names, addresses, credit history, and other data. You acknowledge that we may use Personal Information to verify any other information you provide to us, and that any information we collect may affect our assessment of your overall risk to our business.
D. Account Management and Security. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your Account, and you must keep your Account password secure. We encourage you to use “strong” passwords (for recommendations on what constitutes a strong password, check NIST SP 800-63B) with your Account. You must notify Accrew immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your Account. Accrew will not be liable for any losses caused by any unauthorized use of your Account. We may suspend access to your Account if we believe that your Account has been compromised.
E. Prohibitions. You may not use the Account or the Services (a) for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by this Agreement; (b) business purposes; (c) for the benefit of an individual, organization, or country identified on the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control’s Specially Designated Nationals List.

2. The Accrew Services
A. Deposit Account. Your Deposit Account is a demand deposit account held with our Banking Services Provider and is subject to the terms of this Agreement and the additional terms of our Banking Services Provider. Your funds are fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. Your Deposit Account will be used in connection with the provision of the other Services under this Agreement. You may also use your Deposit Account to the extent provided in the terms of our Banking Services Provider.
B. Accrew Virtual and Physical Cards.
Your Accrew Account gives you access to virtual and physical cards (the “Accrew Card” or “Accrew Cards”) that you can use to make purchases for yourself using funds in your Accrew Deposit Account. Your Accrew Card must only be used for any non-business purpose, such as for personal or household purchases, when issued in conjunction with your Account.
(i) Requesting and Receiving Accrew Cards. When you sign up for a Accrew Deposit Account, you will be issued one physical Accrew Card.
(ii) Spending Limits, Payments, and Refunds. Spending on your Accrew Card(s) is limited by the available funds in your Deposit Account. Your Accrew Card transactions will be settled as they occur by debiting your Accrew Deposit Account an amount equal to each Accrew Card transaction. Refunds to your Accrew Card will be applied to your Accrew Deposit Account. If you use your Accrew Card for preauthorized, recurring, or subscription payments, you should regularly monitor the available funds in your Deposit Account to ensure that funds are available to make those payments. If funds are not available at the time a preauthorized, recurring or subscription payment is attempted on your Accrew Card, the transaction will ordinarily be declined. We will generally decline transactions attempted on your Accrew Card that would overdraw your Deposit Account. If, however, we do not decline a transaction and that transaction does overdraw your account, we may limit your ability to use other features or spend additional funds from your Deposit Account until your Deposit Account has a positive balance and the transaction that has overdrawn your account has been paid. For more information related to the manner in which your Accrew Card transactions are debited and settled, refer to the Accrew Card Agreement.
(iv) Disputes. If you have a dispute about a purchase on your Accrew Card that you cannot resolve with the merchant directly (a “Disputed Charge”), please contact us at support@accrewmoney.com as soon as possible, and in all cases within 60 days of the charge. We cannot help you with Disputed Charges you report to us more than 60 days after the charge appears on your account. Disputed Charges will remain debited from your Deposit Account while we determine the outcome of the dispute. We will resolve all disputes in a commercially reasonable timeframe. If we determine you should be reimbursed, we will credit the amount of the Disputed Charge back to your Deposit Account and you will not be charged any fees. If we determine that the Disputed Charge was valid, your Deposit Account will not be reimbursed, and you will be charged a fee as set forth in the Fee Schedule. You assign and transfer to us any rights and claims, excluding tort claims, that you have against a merchant for any Disputed Charge that is fully or partially credited to your Deposit Account. We may assign and transfer the rights you assign and transfer to us under this provision to the Accrew Card Issuer.
(v) Records, Fees, and Communication. All transaction records and periodic statements may be found in your dashboard for your Account. All fees associated with the Accrew Cards may be found in the Accrew Card Agreement.
(vi) Other Accrew Card Terms. Accrew Cards are issued by CBW Bank (the “Issuer.” ) You agree to the applicable CBW Bank terms and conditions. You agree that any future changes to the relevant CBW Bank terms and conditions will apply to your Accrew Card, whether or not Accrew or CBW Bank alerts you to those changes to the terms and conditions.
C. Mobile Remote Deposit Capture. You may remotely deposit paper checks into your Deposit Account through the Accrew app by creating a Mobile Deposit. When making a Mobile Deposit, you are also subject to the Solid Financial Technologies and its Banking Partners Deposit Account Agreement & Service Terms, including the Funds Availability Disclosure section of those terms. A “Mobile Deposit” is the information that is transmitted to us allowing for the deposit, processing, and collection of the item deposited. You may only deposit items made payable to you. We reserve the right to reject any Mobile Deposit for any reason.
(i) Depositing your Check. You are responsible for creating an accurate Mobile Deposit. To deposit your check, you must endorse the check, enter the correct amount of the check (you are liable for any errors you make during the deposit process), create a check image using the camera on your mobile device to take a picture of the front and back of your check. You may only deposit eligible items through the mobile remote deposit capture service. To mitigate the risk of fraud or the presentment of duplicate items, you agree to mark on the original paper check that the item has been deposited electronically. You also agree to retain all checks deposited via mobile remote deposit capture for at least two business days after the deposit is made and to destroy all deposited checks as soon as reasonably possible, and in no event later than 30 days after the deposit.
(ii) Returned Items. You acknowledge and agree that we may charge you any fees associated with a returned item if a check is returned to us for any reason.
(iii) Representations and Warranties. In addition to any other representations and warranties applicable to your Deposit Account, with respect to each Mobile Deposit, you make any representation or warranty that would have applied had you deposited the original paper check. This includes representations and warranties we make on your behalf when we transfer, present, or originate the Mobile Deposit created from your check image. These representations and warranties include but are not limited to, that: (a) the transmissions contain accurate images of the front and back of the original checks; (b) the transmissions contain all necessary endorsements; and (c) no depository bank, drawee, drawer, or endorser will be asked to make a payment based on an item that it has already paid.
D. Digital Checks. You may send digital checks to payees from your Deposit Account. Payees will be able to print the digital check or present the digital check via email or other electronic means to the payee’s bank for deposit. By creating and authorizing the issuance of a digital check or remotely created check (“RCC”), you authorize Accrew to honor the RCC in the amount and to the payee stated on the RCC even though the RCCs do not contain your signature. You authorize Accrew to debit your Account for any claim or return based upon an unauthorized RCC and you agree to indemnify and hold Accrew harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) resulting directly or indirectly from any breach of the foregoing warranty.
3. Fees and Payment.
A. Payment Method. You must keep a valid payment method on file with us to pay for all fees owed. We will debit fees from your Deposit Account or another payment method that you authorize. Accrew will charge the payment method that you authorize for all applicable fees until the Services are terminated, and any and all outstanding fees have been paid in full. If we are unable to process payment of fees using your payment method on file, we will make a second attempt to process the payment using the payment method on file within three (3) days. If the second attempt is not successful, we will notify you, and may suspend and revoke access to the Services. If the Services are suspended, your Services will be reactivated upon payment of any amounts owed. If the outstanding fees remain unpaid for sixty (60) days following the date of suspension, then Wise reserves the right to terminate your Account. You may change your payment method through your account settings.
B. Applicable Fees. Your use of the Services is subject to the fees on the Fee Schedule, which may be updated from time-to-time at our discretion. For fees owed under this Agreement, we will automatically charge you using the payment method you have on file with us and by agreeing to this Agreement, you authorize us to do this. You will be charged via invoice each month on your billing date (“Billing Date”) for all outstanding fees that have not previously been charged or collected. All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes. You are responsible for all applicable taxes that arise from or as a result of your use of the Services.
C. Collection and Right to Set-Off. You agree to pay all amounts owed to us on demand. Your failure to pay amounts owed to us under this Agreement is a breach and you will be liable for any costs we incur during collection in addition to the amount you owe. Collection costs may include attorneys’ fees, costs of arbitration or court proceeding, collection agency fees, any applicable interest, and any other related cost. We may collect amounts you owe to us under this Agreement by deducting any amounts you owe to use from your Deposit Account. You grant us a security interest in and right to set off against the Deposit Account.

11. Governing Law, Arbitration, and Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver
A. Governing Law. You agree that: (i) the Services shall be deemed solely based in California and Delaware, except as may be set forth in the Bank Provider Agreements; and (ii) the Services shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over us, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than California. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in San Francisco County, California for any actions for which we retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights, as set forth in the Arbitration provision below, including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm. Subject to Section 11.B, you agree that the federal or state courts located in San Francisco County, California is the proper forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the Arbitration provision below is found to be unenforceable.
B. Arbitration. READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM Accrew. For any dispute with Accrew, you agree to first contact us at 222 W Merchandise Mart Plaza #1212, Chicago, IL 60654 and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that Accrew has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims arising from protection of Intellectual Property Rights, breach of Confidential Information, which will be resolved through litigation in accordance with Section 11.A, or for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided below) arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement, or the breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by JAMS. Claims with amounts claimed greater than $250,000 will apply the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures; and Disputes with amounts claimed less than or equal to $250,000 will apply the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in San Francisco County, California, unless you and Accrew agree otherwise. If JAMS cannot administer the Claim, either party may petition the US District Court for the Northern District of California to appoint an arbitrator. Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules, and the award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Either party may commence arbitration by providing a written demand for arbitration to JAMS and the other party detailing the subject of the Claim and the relief requested. Each party will continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement unless that obligation or the amount (to the extent in dispute) is itself the subject of the Claim. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed as preventing either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, Intellectual Property Rights or other proprietary rights. Proceedings and information related to them will be maintained as confidential, including the nature and details of the Claim, evidence produced, testimony given, and the outcome of the Claim, unless such information was already in the public domain or was independently obtained. Person and Accrew, and all witnesses, advisors, and arbitrators will only share such information as necessary to prepare for or conduct arbitration or other legal proceeding, or enforcement of the outcome, unless additional disclosure is required by law.
C. Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver. With respect to all persons and entities, regardless of whether they have obtained an account or used the services for personal, commercial or other purposes, all Claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action, collective action, private attorney general action or other representative proceeding. This waiver applies to class arbitration, and, unless we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims. You agree that, by entering into this agreement, you and Accrew are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action, collective action, private attorney general action, or other representative proceeding of any kind.
12. Communication
By providing us with a telephone number for a mobile device, including a number that you later convert to a mobile device number, you are expressly consenting to receiving communications—including but not limited to prerecorded or artificial voice message calls, text messages, and calls made by an automatic telephone dialing system—from us and our affiliates and agents at that number, about any product or services offered by Accrew. This express consent applies to each such telephone number that you provide to us now or in the future. Calls and messages may incur access fees from your mobile services provider. You understand that you need not provide this consent as a condition of obtaining goods or services from Accrew, and that you may decline to provide or revoke your consent at any time by emailing support@accrewmoney.com or by any other method that reasonably ensures we receive your revocation.
By providing us with a telephone number, you agree that Accrew may record any telephone conversation with you (or any another individual) during any telephone call to or from that number for training purposes, whether or not the call was initiated by you, and whether or Accrew disclosed the fact that the call was recorded during the call.
13. General
A. Assignment. This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by Accrew without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void.
B. Notification Procedures and Changes to the Agreement.

C. Entire Agreement/Severability. This Agreement, together with any amendments and any additional agreements you may enter into with Accrew in connection with the Services, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and Accrew concerning your Account and the Services. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect, except that in the event of unenforceability of the universal Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver, the entire arbitration agreement shall be unenforceable.
D. No Waiver. No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and Accrew’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
E. Legal Orders. We may respond to and comply with any subpoenas, warrants, liens, or any other legal order we receive related to your use of the Services. We are not responsible to you for any losses you incur due to our response to such legal order. We may hold funds or provide information as required by the issuer of the legal order or take any other actions we believe are required of us under legal orders. Where permitted, we will provide you reasonable notice that we have received such an order.
F. Survival. Any and all provisions of this Agreement reasonably giving rise to continued obligations of the parties will survive termination of this Agreement.

· Location Data. We collect location data such as information about your device's location, which can be either precise or imprecise. How much information we collect depends on the type and settings of the device you use to access the Services. For example, we may use GPS and other technologies to collect geolocation data that tells us your current location (based on your IP address). You can opt out of allowing us to collect this information either by refusing access to the information or by disabling your Location setting on your device. However, if you choose to opt out, you may not be able to use certain aspects of the Services.
