Company also has the right to ask to see identifying documents such as your driver license and other documentation at any time, as necessary to validate your identity.
6.4 Company may charge you a Fee for your use of the payment processing Service(s) in accordance with this Agreement and Company’s agreement with your Merchant. The Fees are charged for the payment processing Services provided to you including providing additional payment channels (such as Internet, telephone, walk-in payment locations) and the services involved in facilitating payment of your Principal Payment on behalf of the Merchant. Payment processing Services are different than, and separate from, the services provided to you directly by the Merchant and for which you are making a Principal Payment(s), (e.g. lease payment, homeowner association dues, security deposit, application fee, etc.). While the Company system displays all related Fees in a visible location for you, you will receive a final confirmation page with the transaction amount including the payment processing Fee and will be given the opportunity to either “Submit” or “Cancel” the transaction. In the event that your financial institution returns your payment for Non-Sufficient Funds (“NSF”), you authorize Company to assess and process an automatic NSF Fee, as permitted by applicable law, to the same account from which your payment was initiated. You agree that any NSF fee assessed by Company is a reasonable fee. In such an event, the Merchant and/or financial institution may also assess NSF fees. Such fee assessments are wholly separate from Company’s NSF assessment and are solely determined by the Merchant and/or financial institution. You expressly agree that the Merchant’s and/or financial institution’s assessment of NSF fees shall have no effect on Company’s authority to independently assess you NSF fees in accord with this agreement. In the event that the NSF fees charged by Company is returned and/or generates additional fees assessed by your bank, you assume all responsibility for such fees.
6.5 You hereby authorize Company to debit your account, including the Principal Amount owed to the Merchant and payment processing Fees, from your bank account (via ACH) or charge your payment card or charge your third party account (including PayPal) on behalf of the Merchant for any of the transactions you submit. You agree that your submission of a transaction constitutes your authorization to Company to debit your account, or charge your card or third party account, based on the information you have provided.
6.6 You acknowledge and agree that, subject to banking and card association rules and regulations, upon payment to Company by you for payment due to the Merchant, such payment obligation to the Merchant is considered paid and extinguished. Payment is deemed made by you at the time at which Company receives the funds (as agent of the Merchant). In the event that any payment received by Company is not delivered to the Merchant as described in this Section, the Merchant will have recourse only against Company in connection with the payment.
6.7 You can request a refund through Company for a payment processed through your Company account if the payment is still processing to the Merchant and not yet settled to the Merchant account. Once the funds have settled to the Merchant’s deposit account, you must request a refund directly through the Merchant. All transaction cancellations or refunds through Company must be requested by logging into your Company account and clicking on “Help” and then clicking on the “Contact Support” button. The request must include the transaction number and amount to be refunded. If you do not have a Company account, the refund request must be submitted to the Merchant for processing. Refund requests through Company are fulfilled only during Company business hours Monday through Friday 7:00 AM-5:00 PM Pacific Time. Any applicable Fees and NSF fees charged by Company will not be refunded.
6.8 For accounts that have been set up with the fixed recurring payment option (“Fixed AutoPay”), Company will debit your designated account for the authorized amount of the Principal Amount and the Fee on the designated day each month until the Fixed AutoPay is cancelled. Company reserves the right to increase its Fee for Fixed AutoPay transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, however the fee will appear on the payment authorization page for you to see prior to your approval of payment. For accounts that have been set up with the variable automatic recurring payment option (“Variable AutoPay”), the Fee may change based on the principal amount of the transaction.
6.9 Credit Reporting.
(a.) Company’s Credit Reporting Service. Users who opt in to Company’s credit reporting service authorize Company to report their rent payment data, such as details of payments and personal validation information including but not limited to name, social security number, and address, (collectively, “Rent Payment Data”) to one or more Consumer Reporting Agencies (“Agencies” or “Agency”).

You should review the legal terms and conditions for the Agencies credit reporting businesses to understand how they collect, store, manage, use, modify, disseminate, and/or distribute such data. You agree to hold Company harmless against any claims in connection with an Agency’s use or management of any Rent Payment Data that Company has provided to the Agencies in accordance with the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”).
You acknowledge that you are responsible for providing Company with accurate, complete, and consistent Rent Payment Data. You further acknowledge that your credit report, credit history, or credit score maintained by the Agencies may be negatively affected if: (i) you provide Company with incomplete or inaccurate Rent Payment Data; or (ii) the reporting of your Rent Payment Data by Company is inconsistent, inaccurate, or terminated. Company is not liable for any claims, charges, demands, damages, or adverse impacts on or regarding your credit report, credit history, or credit score maintained by the Agencies if: (i) you stop using Company’s credit reporting service; (ii) you provide inaccurate or incomplete Rent Payment Data to Company; or (iii) you cause reporting to be made inconsistently. Company will provide the Agencies with the Rent Payment Data that you provide to Company and/or Rent Payment Data collected by Company. Unless otherwise limited by FCRA and applicable law, in no event shall Company be responsible for any claims, costs, expenses or damages resulting from incomplete or inaccurate reporting.
You can: (i) notify Company of a dispute concerning incomplete or inaccurate Rent Payment Data; or (ii) submit an identity theft report, if you have experienced an identity theft event, by writing to:

You agree to hold Company harmless against any claims in connection with LevelCredit’s or any Agency’s use or management of any Rent Payment Data that Company has provided to LevelCredit in accordance with the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”). Unless otherwise limited by FCRA and applicable law, in no event shall Company be responsible for any claims, costs, expenses or damages resulting from incomplete or inaccurate reporting.
6.10 COMPANY WILL SEEK TO MAKE REASONABLE EFFORTS TO PROCESS ELECTRONIC DEBITS AND CREDITS INVOLVING YOUR ACCOUNT IN A TIMELY MANNER, HOWEVER COMPANY MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THE ACCURACY OR TIMELINESS OF SUCH PROCESSING, INCLUDING BECAUSE COMPANY’S SERVICES ARE LARGELY DEPENDENT UPON MANY FACTORS OUTSIDE OF ITS CONTROL, SUCH AS DELAYS IN THE U.S. BANKING SYSTEM, INTERRUPTIONS IN INTERNET AND/OR TELEPHONE SERVICES, DELAYS CAUSED BY THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSORS, SUPPLIERS, ETC.
