ProMedia reserves the right to amend these Terms & Conditions upon 30 (thirty) days notice to Merchant. Continued use of the service provided under this Agreement after those 30 (thirty) days constitutes Merchant’s acceptance of the amended Terms & Conditions.
CREDIT CARD PROCESSING THROUGH PROMEDIA’S POYNT TERMINALS: Merchant understands and agrees that the merchant services account that processes credit cards through the equipment related to this Agreement may ONLY process via a processor authorized and approved by ProMedia. Merchant cannot use their own processor through the equipment related to this Agreement. This Agreement is SEPARATE from any merchant services processing agreement the Merchant may have in place with ProMedia or anyone else. As such, should Merchant close its processing account with ProMedia, and/or ProMedia’s preferred processor for any reason or no reason at all, or close their business, this Agreement remains in force, valid, and stays in place, with all amounts due payable to ProMedia.
TERM: The Term of this Agreement is 36 (thirty-six) months after execution of this Agreement. Merchant agrees to pay the monthly service fee, listed below, for the entire 36 (thirty-six) month period. Merchant may cancel this agreement upon 30 (thirty) days notice and hereby agrees to pay the LESSER of the following, in order to terminate the Agreement: The LESSER of the total monthly service fee amount multiplied by the number of unpaid months left in the Agreement, OR the cumulative amount of $699 (six hundred ninety-nine dollars) for each Wifi enabled Poynt terminal related to this Agreement, in addition to $799 (seven hundred ninety-nine dollars) for each 3G enabled Poynt terminal related to this Agreement, in addition to $150 (one hundred fifty dollars) for any cash drawer related to this Agreement, plus $150 (one hundred fifty dollars) for any external printer related to this Agreement. Merchant understands these amounts are guaranteed by the Merchant, as well as the signer, personally. If ProMedia is unable to properly collect these fees according to a regular monthly schedule, Merchant understands and agrees the account may be considered a delinquent debt and pursued as such, including but not limited to, reporting as a negative account on the business’ credit as well as the signer’s personal credit, to any credit reporting agency or bureau, and/or referring the account to a collection agency in ProMedia’s sole discretion. Upon completion and proper and timely payment of ALL funds related to this Agreement, Merchant may continue processing via the related Poynt terminal(s) at a monthly rate of $20.00 (twenty dollars) per month. At that point, and after fulfillment of this Agreement (including all monthly service fees for 36 months having been properly paid), service related to the Poynt terminal may be canceled by Merchant at any time, upon 30 (thirty) days written notice. NOTE: Upon completed and proper and timely payment of ALL funds related to this Agreement, including such for equipment accessories such as cash drawer or external printer, Merchant may keep and continue to use such equipment accessories at no additional cost.
