Security Measures
Payhawk will:
Payhawk is responsible for the security of cardholder data it possesses or otherwise stores, processes, or transmits on behalf of the customer, to the extent that Payhawk has used commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any system infiltration. Payhawk protects data by controlling both physical and electronic access to all sensitive data. Access is limited to individuals with specific business justification to access and manage the data, and their access is closely monitored and controlled. Payhawk is currently and will continue to be compliant with industry requirements such as the PCI Data Security Standard.

In case in relation to Company's data processing obligations additional checks are required, it is possible to assign an audit after signing a preliminary agreement with Payhawk, specifying the scope, duration and a mutually agreed certified auditor. In performing such an audit, Company undertakes to pay all fees, remunerations and costs for the performed activities and services, both by the auditor and by Payhawk. An audit may be conducted only in a manner and to an extent that does not prejudice the obligations and rights of other companies using the Services, the Issuers or the providers of the Integrated Services.

Beta Services and Feedback
Beta Services may be made available to Company. Any Beta Services are provided AS IS and without warranty. Payhawk may use any Feedback about the Services or Beta Services freely and without restriction. Except where specifically notified by Payhawk, Payhawk will not compensate or credit Company for the Feedback provided.
Fees
Company must pay Payhawk the Fees in relation to the Services for which it is registered. The amount of the Fees will vary depending on the number of Services and volumes used. Fees related to subscription plans will be billed in advance/upfront whereas Fees related to non-recurring add-ons will be billed in arrears either immediately after such an add-on has been ordered or in the next subscription plan invoice. Billing cycles are monthly. At the end of each Billing Cycle, the Service will automatically renew under the exact same conditions. Invoices for the Fees will be sent via e-mail to the Administrators of the Payhawk Account.
Fee Payments
Payhawk invoices have a net 10-days payment term (payable within 10 days of invoice date), after which Company shall pay 2% per month interest on the outstanding amount until the date of final settlement.
All Fees shall be paid net of any charges levied by any bank and/or payment service provider. By accepting the Conditions of Use, Company acknowledges and agrees that Payhawk shall not be liable for any part of such charges which shall remain at all times and under all circumstances the sole responsibility of Company.
Upon the successful creation of a Payhawk Account, Payhawk will issue a free of charge virtual card whose sole purpose will be to serve as means of paying due Fees. This virtual card shall be linked to Company's account and will be automatically charged every time a new invoice falls due.
All Fees shall, when due, be charged directly to the Payhawk Account and will be automatically set off against any available balances which Company may have in that Payhawk Account. If Company has ledgers in several currencies within its Payhawk Account and Company's debt is not inherent in a particular ledger, Payhawk may charge in whole or in part any of Company's ledgers irrespective of its nominal currency. Company hereby explicitly agrees and authorizes Payhawk to deduct any and all amounts which Company may have in any ledger within its Payhawk Account so that Payhawk satisfies any monetary claim from outstanding Fees which Company may have incurred towards Payhawk.
In the event where the Payhawk Account available balance is not sufficient to cover and pay the Fees, Company will no longer be able to issue new Cards or to use already issued Cards and make transfers.
Collections
Any failure to pay the full amount owed to any Payhawk group entity when required (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Credit Liabilities) is a breach of this Agreement and Payhawk reserves its rights to suspend the Services in part or in whole and/or terminate this Agreement, as well as recover any outstanding debt or due payment directly from Company in the manner stipulated in the above paragraph or via a third party collection service. Company is responsible for all costs or expenses that Payhawk incurs collecting amounts owed but not timely paid, including legal fees and any interest at the maximum rate permitted under law.
Payment Cards
Cards are issued by a relevant Issuer identified on the back of physical Cards and in the Card Terms and Conditions. The Card Terms and Conditions govern Company's use of the Cards. Company may only use the Cards if Company, its Administrators, and its Cardholders consent to the applicable Card Terms and Conditions. Issuers or Payhawk may update Card Terms and Conditions at any time by providing notice to Company including through Payhawk and Company's continued use of the Cards constitutes Company's acceptance of the updated Card Terms and Conditions.
Requesting and Replacing Cards
Administrators may request Card issuance through Company's Payhawk Account but may not provide to and will not request Cards for individuals that are not employees or other persons affiliated with or authorized by Company. Cards may be denied or cancelled due to changes in an Issuer’s policies, as required by law, or for other reasons an Issuer determines are appropriate under the circumstances. Cards may be issued as physical or virtual cards (a Card issued without an associated physical card). By default, the Cardholders will be able to view transactions and manage their Cards through the Payhawk Account. Company must promptly notify Payhawk and take appropriate measures to prevent unauthorized transactions when a Card is lost, stolen, breached, or needs to be replaced. In such cases, Administrators may request the issuance of replacement Cards by Issuers through Company's Payhawk Account. Replacement Cards may have new account numbers that will require Company to update the Card on file for any scheduled or recurring payments. If Company does not update the Card for scheduled or recurring payments, the transactions may not be completed. Company is solely responsible for updating Cards stored with merchants. Payhawk applies a fair use policy whereby Company may only issue up to 5 physical cards and 10 virtual cards per single user.
Using Cards
Cardholders may only use Cards for bona fide business-related Charges. Company is responsible for Charges made by any individuals given access to Cards even if they are not the person associated with or named on the Card. Company will establish and maintain controls designed to ensure that the Cards are only used for bona fide Company purposes and in compliance with Card Scheme rules. Payhawk, Issuers, Card Schemes, or other intermediary third-party service providers (including merchant acquirers) may deny or reverse Charges for any reason. Payhawk is not responsible for any losses that Company may incur where a Charge is denied or reversed. If Company and a merchant have a dispute regarding a Charge, including delivery of the incorrect goods or services or being charged the wrong amount, Company must first attempt to resolve the dispute with the merchant. If such a dispute is not resolved to Company's satisfaction or if Company believes the Charge is unauthorized, Company may initiate a Chargeback through its Payhawk Account. The Card Schemes have established procedures for resolving Chargebacks that may require that Company provides details of the disputed Charge or associated documentation. Chargebacks resolved in Company's favour will be credited to Company's Payhawk Account.
Cashbacks
Payhawk may, at its own discretion, decide to apply a cashback program in its relationship with Company. Under Payhawk's cashback program Payhawk will pay back to Company an agreed percent of the entire value of Company's card transactions for the respective month, but no more than the amount of Company's base monthly subscription fee for the month when the transactions were made. The cashback program will only apply to Company's spending via card payments which were settled within the respective one-month period (“Eligible Transactions”). For the avoidance of doubt, the following transactions shall not be deemed Eligible Transactions:
• Inbound transfers to Company's Payhawk Account made by Company or any third party
• Outbound transfers from Company's Payhawk Account
• ATM withdrawals
• Chargebacks
Cashbacks will be applied in the form of monthly credits which shall be deducted from the Fees due under the invoice for the month following the month when the Eligible Transactions were made and only under the condition that Company have no overdue Fees for previous months. In its capacity as operator of the cashback program Payhawk shall at no point and under no circumstances be liable to Company for an amount exceeding the amount of Company's base monthly subscription fee. Upon termination of your Platform Agreement by either party and for any of the reasons stipulated herein, you will not be entitled to any cashback whatsoever for the Eligible Transactions made in the course of the last month of your subscription.
Term and Termination
This Agreement is in two parts: the Agreement is in effect in respect of your Payhawk Account when you submit an application for Payhawk Account registration to Payhawk and activate the Payhawk Account, and then secondly, once you sign a Quote, and in both cases, this Agreement continues until terminated by either party or as may be otherwise set forth in the Quote. Company may terminate this Agreement by way of sending a one month Notice of termination to support@payhawk.com and paying all amounts owed for the remaining duration of the subscription period. Company will remain responsible for any Charges, Fees, Fines or penalties caused by Company's action or inaction prior to terminating the Agreement. If Company reapplies or reopens a Payhawk Account or uses or attempts to use the Services or Cards, Company is agreeing to the agreement terms in effect at that time. Payhawk may terminate this Platform Agreement, or suspend the Payhawk Account or Cards, with immediate effect by providing Company with a notice of termination. Payhawk may, at its own discretion, decide to terminate the Agreement with immediate effect if Company should fail to pay one or more of the due Fees. In cases under the previous sentence, Company agrees and acknowledges that all Fees under the subscription period to which it has committed shall become due and Company will be liable to Payhawk for the aggregate amount of all Fees to be paid for the remaining duration of the subscription period.
