The Services Agreement and this Agreement are separate agreements. However, certain provisions of the Services Agreement are incorporated into this Agreement by reference. To the extent that there is a conflict between the incorporated provisions of the Services Agreement and the provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement will prevail.

1. Payments Services.

As part of the Plane Platform, we offer payment functionality (“Payments Services”), in which you authorize us to create debit or credit entries (each, a “Transfer”) on your behalf. To offer this payment functionality, we either partner with a bank or we use a third-party service provider authorized to execute Transfers and custody your funds. We do not take custody of or maintain control over your funds at any time, and you expressly authorize our bank partners or third-party service providers to act as the custodian of the funds that you Transfer using the Payment Services. The accounts opened by our bank partners or third-party service providers at our request to custody your funds are not your bank accounts, and neither our bank partners nor our third-party service providers are liable to you for our provision of the Payment Services.

To use the payment functionality, you must comply with the applicable laws and rules. These include the NACHA Rules for automated clearing house (“ACH") transactions, which may be amended from time to time, and Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in California, which may be amended from time to time (“UCC”)You acknowledge that you are the Originator, as defined in the NACHA Rules, for each Transfer we originate on your behalf.

4. Transfer Origination and Rejections.

The payment functionality enables you to provide us with the required payment information for creating, formatting, and transmitting Transfers per applicable law. We or our bank partner may reject any Transfer that does not comply with the requirements in any Product Specific Terms, with any applicable law, a banking requirement, or if you do not have sufficient available funds for the Transfer. If a Transfer is rejected, we will make a reasonable effort to notify you to allow you either to correct the Transfer or ask that we correct the Transfer and resubmit it. A Transfer rejection notice (“Rejection Notice”) will be effective when given to you. The Rejection Notice can be delivered through any means, including to your Plane Account. We will have no liability to you for (i) rejecting a Transfer or any claims that directly or indirectly arise from rejecting a Transfer; or (ii) a delay in providing, or failing to provide, you with a Rejection Notice or any claims that directly or indirectly arise from such actions. If you ask that we correct a Transfer, we may, but are not obligated, to do so. We will not be liable to you for any claims that may result directly or indirectly from our attempt to correct, or failure to correct, a Transfer.

5. Credit Authorizations.

You authorize us to (a) originate, on your behalf as the originator of the Transfer, credit Transfers to receivers’ accounts and (b) instruct our banking partner who holds the funds necessary for the credit Transfer to debit the relevant account for the same amount. You will obtain and maintain the necessary authorization from the receiver for each credit Entry transmitted on your behalf by us to our banking partner.

6. Credits, Provisional Credits, and Refunds.

Any credit made available to you by us regarding any credit Transfer is provisional until final settlement for such Transfer. If our bank partner does not receive the final settlement, you agree that we are entitled to a refund from you for the amount credited to you. The party who was making payment to you via the Transfer will not be deemed to have paid you the amount of the credit Transfer.

7. Reversals.

Upon your request, we may make a reasonable effort to reverse a Transfer, but you acknowledge that the receiver’s financial institution to which the funds were sent is under no obligation to comply with this request and we cannot guarantee that the Transfer will be successfully reversed. You agree to reimburse us for any costs or expenses that we incur if we attempt to honor your reversal request.
