Payment Services. By accessing the Service, you authorize Steel River Systems, LLC (1) to establish and maintain your payment authorizations and (2) to process your payments according to your instructions.

Types of Payments and Who you are Paying. You may use the Service only to authorize the payment of account(s) placed with Steel River Systems, LLC. Payments that you authorize will be made from a bank or financial institution account, including, by credit or debit card, (the ‘Transaction Account’) that you designate. It is your responsibility to establish and maintain the Transaction Account and to pay any and all fees associated with the Transaction Account. By accessing the Service, you represent that you have the authority to authorize Steel River Systems, LLC to take the payments from the Transaction Account according to the terms of this Agreement.

Payment Amount. You may authorize a one-time or recurring payment in an amount of at least $50.00 on an account unless the account is less than $50.00.

You may authorize a one-time or recurring payment in any amount exceeding $50.00 up to the total amount of the account or the Confirmed Payment Arrangement, if you have Confirmed Payment Arrangement. By processing any payment less than the full balance owed, you understand and agree that Steel River Systems, LLC is not agreeing to a specific payment arrangement unless that payment arrangement is expressly confirmed by a representative of Steel River Systems, LLC via email, or letter (‘Confirmed Payment Arrangement’). A receipt, letter or payment authorization you print from the Service does not alone constitute agreement by Steel River Systems, LLC to a specific payment arrangement.

Timing. By providing Steel River Systems, LLC with a payment authorization under the Service, you authorize Steel River Systems, LLC to charge the Transaction Account to remit funds on your behalf to pay accounts you designate that are placed with Steel River Systems, LLC. It is your responsibility to make timely payment authorizations, so that the funds will arrive before the date on which they are due if you have a Confirmed Payment Arrangement. You may designate a payment post-date up to and including the payment due date; however, if you enter a payment post-date after 5:00 p.m. Eastern time, Steel River Systems, LLC may change the payment post-date to the date of Steel River Systems, LLC’s next business day.

You are not permitted to change, revoke or terminate a one-time or recurring payment if that payment is in process. A payment is in process on the posting date of the payment. You may have the legal right to revoke electronic payments by contacting the bank where you hold the Transaction Account. Contact your bank to determine the information and time your bank needs to process your revocation.
