Terms and Conditions 

DEMAND DRAFT/ECHECK OR ACH PROCESSING SERVICES TERMS AND CONDITIONS

By using EDD’s service, you accept and agree to these terms and conditions which govern EDD’s service. If you do not agree to these terms of service, do not use EDD’s services. In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows

1. Authority: Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Merchant herby authorizes EDD, and EDD hereby agrees to honor, execute and credit to Merchant’s designated account(s) all telephonic, oral or written (including via facsimile transmission or via electronic or other means) requests by Merchant for demand drafts/eChecks or ACH and the deposit of funds. Merchant expressly grants authority to EDD to act as an agent-of-the-payee to process payments on the Merchants behalf for the purpose of goods and/or services. EDD does not guarantee any check will clear and will not be held accountable for any bank fees. Merchant acknowledges that it is aware that EDD is not a bank or financial institution but simply a payment processor. 

2. Authorized Representatives of Merchant: Merchant shall provide the designation of each person (“Authorized Representative”) authorized to act on Merchant’s behalf in making telephonic, oral, electronic, or written demand draft/eCheck or ACH requests. EDD shall be entitled to rely upon the authority of each such person until such time as EDD receives written notice from merchant of the revocation of such authority. 

3. Security Procedures: EDD system will assign a unique One Time Pin (“OTP”) to each authorized Merchant user to be used in connection with account login access. A new OTP is generated every 24hrs and sent to the Merchant user’s designated email address on file with EDD.  Merchant users shall each use their best efforts to prevent the disclosure of procedures and the OTP applicable to the Merchant’s account. If Merchant believes, or has reason to believe, that the confidentiality of such procedures or PIN has been compromised, notice of that fact shall be given to EDD immediately by calling 888-616-2535 or emailing support@edebitdirect.com, and submitting a written “Incident Report” to 6528 Greenleaf Ave Ste.106  Whittier, CA 90601. In no event shall the Incident Report notice be given more than two business days from the date of discovery. Merchant shall implement and maintain at all times adequate safeguards to prevent unauthorized demand draft/eCheck or ACH requests from being made on its behalf. EDD reserves the right to change its security procedures, as EDD deems necessary in its sole discretion. EDD may conclusively presume that any authorized users identified on a demand draft/eCheck or ACH request was provided an OTP and otherwise complies with other verification procedures as an authorized user, and EDD shall regard their instructions as being authorized by Merchant. Merchant agrees to supply EDD, upon request, any information EDD may reasonably request, including but not limited to, further evidence of authority to consummate such demand drafts/eChecks or ACH or perform other acts under the terms of this Agreement. Merchant is solely responsible for any and all activities which occur under Merchant’s account whether authorized or unauthorized. 

4. Adequacy of Security and Verification Procedures: Merchant acknowledges that the security and verification procedures set forth herein, and otherwise implemented by EDD from time to time, will not detect errors in the transmission or content of the demand draft/eCheck or ACH instruction, and Merchant agrees that it shall be solely responsible for the discovery and identification of any error and to advise EDD of such error as prescribed herein. Merchant agrees that the security and verification procedures set forth in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement, and otherwise implemented by EDD from time to time, are commercially reasonable, and that Merchant shall be bound by any demand draft/eCheck or ACH instruction issued in Merchant’s name and accepted by EDD in compliance with the security and verification procedures set forth herein and as otherwise may be implemented by EDD from time to time. 

EDD is responsible for protecting the security of data in our possession and will maintain commercially reasonable administrative, technical and physical procedures to protect all the personal information regarding Merchant and its customers that is stored in our servers or the servers of our Authorized Third-Party Vendors from unauthorized access and accidental loss or modification. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use such personal information for improper purposes. Merchant acknowledges that it provides this personal information regarding Merchant and its customers at its own risk. EDD recommends that Merchant review our Privacy Policy which will help you understand how we collect, use and safeguard the information you provide to us.

5. Procedure: All demand draft/eCheck or ACH requests will conform to EDD’s then-existing procedures, which may be amended by EDD from time to time in its sole discretion. Such procedures include the method for submitting demand draft/eCheck or ACH requests and cut-off times for all deposits at the respective financial institutions. Merchant understands that the account/routing/transit number assigned to companies and to the accounts for demand drafts/eChecks or ACH is critical to the demand draft/eCheck or ACH function. Merchant acknowledges and agrees that EDD will rely solely upon the information Merchant provided in the demand draft/eCheck or ACH request to be used in executing such demand draft/eCheck or ACH. Merchant shall be required to pay EDD, and EDD is authorized to charge Merchant’s account, for any demand drafts/eChecks or ACH made by EDD at Merchant’s request utilizing solely any such account/routing/transit number or similar identifying numbers. 

6. Time of Demand draft/eCheck or ACH Request; Sufficient Funds Available: EDD shall provide Merchant with a schedule showing the business hours during which it handles demand draft/eCheck or ACH requests. Requests received on Saturday and Sunday may be handled on the next business day. EDD may act upon all demand draft/eCheck or ACH requests on the date received, when received prior to the deadlines required by EDD. EDD shall not be required to act on the day it receives a request, if it receives the request after the business hours set forth in its schedule or cannot reasonably execute the demand draft/eCheck or ACH request within such business hours. EDD is authorized to use any means for the transmission of funds that EDD may consider suitable. EDD shall not be required to honor demand draft/eCheck or ACH requests, unless Merchant’s account is or arranges to be in good standing, and current. In no event shall EDD be liable for any NSF fees or any other administrative or punitive fees incurred by any financial institution where a check that has been delivered to Merchant or to Merchant’s financial institution and has been returned due to non-sufficient funds, Stop Payment, Closed Account or any other reason. EDD is not obligated to verify funds prior to acceptance of transactions or after deposit of a draft/eCheck. If EDD is delayed beyond the time limits provided in the schedule or by law in acting upon a demand draft/eCheck or ACH request because of circumstances beyond its control, the time for acting shall be extended for the time necessary to complete the action, provided EDD exercises such diligence, as the circumstances require. Merchant agrees that EDD shall not be responsible and will have no liability for any loss resulting from any delay in handling or consummation of any demand draft/eCheck or ACH, or for EDD’s inability for any reason to perform a requested amendment or cancellation of any demand draft/eCheck or ACH. 

7. Handling of Demand draft/eCheck or ACH Requests, Amendments, Revocations and Discrepancies: Merchant may ask EDD to amend or cancel any demand draft/eCheck or ACH or related instruction, and EDD will use its best efforts to comply with such request if the request is made at a time and in a manner that gives EDD a reasonable opportunity to act on the request before it makes the demand draft/eCheck or ACH or carries out the instruction as Merchant originally requested; provided, however, that Merchant agrees that EDD shall not be responsible and will have no liability for any loss resulting from any delay in handling or consummation of any demand draft/eCheck or ACH request, or for EDD’s inability for any reason to carry out a requested amendment or cancellation of any demand draft/eCheck or ACH request. EDD will not be responsible to recover funds that EDD has already drafted/eChecked in accordance with a demand draft/eCheck or ACH request, nor will EDD be obligated to recover or reimburse any funds that were drafted/eChecked erroneously at the request of Merchant, or before EDD received and had time to act upon a request to amend or cancel the demand draft/eCheck or ACH request. 

8. Duties of EDD: EDD has only those duties and responsibilities specifically set forth in this Agreement. EDD shall exercise the same degree of care and discretion in acting upon oral, electronic or written instruction for the demand draft/eCheck or ACH of funds as EDD would ordinarily take in the draft/eCheck of funds for its own account; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, EDD SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY ERROR OF JUDGMENT OR FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED TO BE TAKEN BY EDD EXCEPT FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. Any claim for compensation by Merchant must be made in writing and received by EDD within a reasonable time, not exceeding fourteen (14) days from the date of the transaction on which the claim is based. 

!9. Indemnification of EDD: Except to the extent that EDD is liable under Paragraph 8 of this Agreement, Merchant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless EDD, its directors, officers, employees and agents from all claims, demands, judgments and expenses (including their attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in any way connected with acts or omissions by EDD, its directors, officers, employees or agents in connection with the services agreed to hereunder. Merchant acknowledges that this indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

10. Limitation of Liability: Merchant agrees that EDD, in dealing with an Authorized Representative of Merchant who follows applicable security procedures and provides the PIN (if such security procedures and PIN are required by EDD), shall be entitled to accept and rely on any representation of such Authorized Representative that the purpose of exercising the authority is within the scope of the business of Merchant. EDD SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO MAKE ANY INQUIRIES IN ORDER TO VERIFY OR CONFIRM ANY SUCH REPRESENTATION OR TO ASSURE THAT ANY ACTION OF THE MERCHANT ARE IN FACT APPLIED OR USED FOR ANY PURPOSES SO REPRESENTED OR FOR ANY OTHER PROPER PURPOSE; AND EDD SHALL IN NO EVENT BE RESPONSIBLE OR HELD LIABLE FOR ANY MISAPPLICATION OR MISUSE OF ANY FUNDS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE MERCHANT OR THE CONSUMER DRAFTED/ECHECKED OR DISPOSED OF PURSUANT TO ANY AUTHORITY HEREIN GRANTED. EDD IN NO EVENT SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, SUCH AS, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF ANTICIPATED PROFITS OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THE PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES HEREUNDER. Nor shall EDD be liable for the insolvency, neglect, misconduct, mistake, or default of another company or person in initiating or completing demand draft/eCheck or ACH transactions. This includes but is not limited to the unauthorized debiting of funds from a consumer account as requested by the Merchant, or the inability for Merchant to receive payment from a demand draft/eCheck or ACH due to insufficient funds, account closure, account seizure or any other reason beyond the control of EDD. In no event shall EDD be criminally or civilly liable for any fraudulent checks whatsoever.

11. Fees, Charges and Reserves: EDD may charge to Merchant’s account(s) such reasonable demand draft/eCheck or ACH fees as EDD may impose from time to time in accordance with its customary pricing policies, and the agreed upon transaction costs for demand draft/eCheck or ACH services duly noted in the Schedule E. EDD may also reimburse itself by debits to Merchant’s account(s) for any direct charges incurred by EDD in connection with demand drafts/eChecks or ACH of funds. EDD may also request a reserve if the approval process deems it necessary, in order to secure future fees and/or charges. EDD may charge a re-activation fee in the event of previous account closure. Additional set-up fees will apply with each newly activated bank deposit sub-account. Merchant hereby authorizes EDD in accordance with all Rules and applicable laws to initiate debit/credit entries to Merchant’s checking account. The authority is to remain in full force and effect until all obligations of Merchant to EDD that have arisen under this agreement have been paid in full. Merchant hereby authorizes EDD in accordance with this Agreement to initiate demand draft/eCheck or ACH transaction to cover all Fees. The authority is to remain in full force and effect until (a) One hundred and eighty (180) days after EDD has received written notification from Merchant of its termination in such a manner as to afford EDD reasonable opportunity to act on it, and (b) all obligations of Merchant to EDD that have arisen under this agreement have been paid in full. Additional fees may apply if special assistance is required to complete the Integration set-up.
