The SecureExchange.com User Service Agreement

Last updated: November 15, 2015

1. Description of Services

  • SecureExchange, LLC provides a network directory service (the “Network Directory”) to U.S. financial institutions who participate in the Network Directory (our “Network Banks”) to enable convenient transfers of money between their deposit account holders registered with their respective payment services (each, a “Network Bank Customer”) using email addresses or mobile phone numbers. SecureExchange provides a service for individuals who have no deposit account with our Network Banks to enable such SecureExchange.com Users (each “User”) to (a) receive money from a Network Bank Customer using the User’s email address or mobile phone number (the “Receive Services”); and (b) send money to a Network Bank Customer through an authorized debit transfer from the User’s deposit account after that User has either participated in the Receive Services or provided additional information required to send money (the “Send Services and, together with the Receive Services, the “Services”).
  • SecureExchange provides no deposit account or other financial services. SecureExchange neither transfers, moves nor initiates the transfer or movement of money. You may not establish a financial account with SecureExchange of any kind and your agreement to be a User relates to your registration of an email address or mobile phone number as your profile identification in the Network Directory and your permission for SecureExchange to share your personal information (including your bank account number provided to SecureExchange) with our Network Banks for the purpose of completing money transfers between Network Bank Customers and you. Our Service to you as a User will be provided at all times subject to the terms and conditions of this Service Agreement.

2. Accepting this Service Agreement

You must have a U.S. checking or savings account to be a User and your financial institution must permit electronic funds transfers to and from that account. When you register to use the Network Directory and the Services or establish a profile on SecureExchange.com (the “Site(s)”) or access your profile on the Site or permit others to use or access the Services, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Service Agreement. You represent that you are at least 18 years of age, you have the authority to authorize debits and credits to the registered bank account, and you agree that you will not use the Services for any unlawful purpose. Subject to applicable law, we may amend or change this Service Agreement (including any applicable fees and service charges) from time to time, in our sole discretion, by posting the updated terms on the Site. Please access and review this Service Agreement regularly. If you find the Service Agreement unacceptable to you at any time, promptly cancel your profile and enrollment with SecureExchange and immediately discontinue your use of the Services. Your continued access of our Site or use of our Services after any amendment, modification or change to the terms and conditions of this Service Agreement shall constitute your agreement and acceptance to such amendment, modification or change.

You may register a profile with SecureExchange with multiple email addresses or mobile phone numbers; however, you may register one bank account only. You understand that you will be ineligible to register as a User with a bank account at a Network Bank.

3. Consent to Share Personal Information (Including Account Information)

5. Registering Your Emails or Mobile Numbers; Consent to Email or Automated Text Messages

  • To participate as a User, you must first register your email address or mobile phone number as a profile ID in the Network Directory. You must provide us with an email address that you regularly use and intend to use regularly (i.e., no disposable email addresses) and a permanent mobile phone number that you intend to use for an extended period of time (i.e., no “burner” numbers).
  • You must register through the Site from your personal computer or a web-enabled tablet or mobile device.
  • We require you to use an email address as your username for access and to establish a password that meets the security requirements described on our Site.
  • At registration, we will collect information from you necessary to verify your identity, which we will do to protect ourselves from fraud and to comply with applicable laws. We reserve the right to deny your registration or request additional information from you if you do not provide us with this information, if we cannot verify your identity, or if we have concerns about fraud or security.
  • We also may request additional information about you from time to time. We may cancel or suspend your registration or block a transaction if you do not provide us with this information, if we cannot verify your identity with the information you provide, or if we have concerns about fraud or security. Once registered, you may receive money from any Network Bank Customer at that customer’s initiation or authorize a debit of your account to send money to any Network Bank Customer at your initiation or in response to that Network Bank Customer’s request.
  • By participating as a User, you represent to SecureExchange that you are the owner, or that you have the authority to act on behalf of the owner, of the email address or mobile phone number you register as a profile ID in the Network Directory. You consent to the receipt of emails or text messages from SecureExchange, a Network Bank or their agents regarding our Services or related transfers between our Network Banks and you. You agree that SecureExchange or its agents may use automatic telephone dialing systems in connection with text messages sent to any mobile phone number you register. You further acknowledge and agree:
  • You are responsible for any fees or other charges that your wireless carrier may charge for any related data, text or other message services, including without limitation for short message service.

  • To cancel text messaging from SecureExchange, send STOP to 31061. For help or information regarding text messaging, send HELP to 31061 or contact SecureExchange customer service at 866-839-3488 or +1 501-748-8506. You expressly consent to receipt of a text message to confirm your “STOP” request.

6. Consumer Reports

By using the Service, you authorize SecureExchange and the Network Bank that is processing a transfer between you and the Network Bank Customer, to obtain consumer reports about you from a consumer reporting agency. This information is used to process your registration, to verify your identity, to verify your bank account information and to protect against or prevent actual or potential fraud or unauthorized use. We reserve the right to decline your registration if we are unable to verify your identity or your bank account information.

7. Receiving Money; Money Transfers by Network Banks; Liability for Failed Transactions

All transfers of money to you shall be performed by a Network Bank per the direction of that Network Bank Customer and at all times subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant service agreement between that Network Bank and its customer, including without limitation any restrictions  or prohibitions on permissible transactions. Once a Network Bank Customer initiates a transfer of money to an email address or mobile phone number registered in the Network Directory, you have no ability to stop it. By using the Receive Service, you agree and authorize our Network Banks to initiate credit entries to the bank account you have registered with SecureExchange. Debits and credit entries to your account and the transmission and issuance of data related to such entries shall be processed pursuant to the terms of this Service Agreement and the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association ("NACHA") and the applicable automated clearing house ("ACH Operator") (collectively, the "Rules") and you, we and the Network Banks agree to be bound by such Rules. Except as otherwise provided below in Section 11, SecureExchange shall have no liability to you for any such transfers of money by our Network Banks, including without limitation, (i) any failure by a Network Bank to complete a transaction to your bank account in the correct amount or (ii) any related losses or damages.

8. Sending Money; Debits by Network Banks; SecureExchange Liability

From time to time, you may send money to a Network Bank Customer in response to that customer’s request for money or at your initiation. By using the Send Service, you agree and authorize our Network Banks to initiate debit entries to the bank account you have registered with SecureExchange. You understand that use of such Send Service by you shall at all times be subject to (i) your express authorization at the time of the transaction for our Network Bank to initiate a debit entry to your bank account and (ii) the terms and conditions of your account agreement with your financial institution. You understand that in cases where a Network Bank Customer has the ability to manually accept or decline your payment, you have the ability to cancel a payment sent to the Network Bank Customer if cancelled prior to acceptance; however, once the payment has been accepted and in cases of automatic acceptance by a Network Bank, when you send the payment, you will have no ability to stop it. You acknowledge that neither SecureExchange nor our Network Banks has knowledge of any restrictions on transfers from your account and neither SecureExchange nor our Network Banks shall have any liability for your failure to comply with the terms and conditions of your account agreement with your financial institution.

9. Transaction Errors

If you have a question about a transfer that you received or expected to receive, then you should contact the sender first and attempt to resolve the issue. ALL QUESTIONS ABOUT TRANSFERS FACILITATED BY SECUREEXCHANGE SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO US AND NOT TO THE FINANCIAL INSTITUTION WHERE YOU HAVE YOUR ACCOUNT.

We will not send you a periodic statement listing transfers facilitated through SecureExchange. Those transfers will appear only on the statement issued by your financial institution. PLEASE RETAIN THE RECORDS FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES AND CHECK THEM AGAINST THE STATEMENT YOU RECEIVE FROM YOUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION.

In case of errors or questions about your transactions facilitated through SecureExchange, please contact us by telephone at 866-839-3488 or +1 501-748-8506 or by e-mail at TransactionError@SecureExchange.com as promptly as you can. You understand that SecureExchange hosts a centralized database of information to facilitate payments, but neither initiates nor processes electronic payments or transfers directly.

Please contact us immediately if:

  • YOU BELIEVE THAT YOUR SECUREEXCHANGE PASSWORD HAS BEEN STOLEN OR COMPROMISED OR THAT SOMEONE USING THE SERVICES HAS TRANSFERRED OR MAY TRANSFER MONEY FROM YOUR BANK ACCOUNT WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION.
  • Your bank statement or transaction record reflects an error in a money transfer using the Services.
  • You need more information about a money transfer using the Services.
  • An unauthorized person has discovered your SecureExchange password and may divert money meant for you to their account.
  • You believe that someone has transferred money to you using the Services but you did not receive it.

IF YOU BELIEVE THAT THE SERVICES HAVE BEEN USED TO MAKE AN UNAUTHORIZED WITHDRAWAL FROM YOUR ACCOUNT, THEN YOU SHOULD CONTACT YOUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION IN ADDITION TO SECUREEXCHANGE. FAILURE TO NOTIFY YOUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION DIRECTLY AND PROMPTLY MIGHT LIMIT YOUR RIGHTS UNDER YOUR ACCOUNT AGREEMENT AND APPLICABLE LAW.

10. Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers

A. Consumer Accounts Only

Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down.

If you tell us verbally, we may require you to send us your complaint or question in writing at TransactionError@secureexchange.com within ten (10) business days. When you contact us, please provide the following information to the extent known:

  • Your name and the email address or mobile phone number you registered with SecureExchange.
  • The date and dollar amount of the transaction in question.
  • If known, the name of the Network Bank Customer and the name of their bank.
  • A description of the transaction about which you are unsure.

Please explain as clearly as you can why you believe there is an error or why you need more information.

We will work with the Network Bank that initiated the transfer to investigate your claim and we will determine whether an error occurred within ten (10) business days after we hear from you. Any error discovered as the result of the investigation will be promptly corrected. If more time is needed, up to forty-five (45) days may be taken to investigate your complaint or question. In this case, your consumer bank account will be credited within ten (10) business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you have the use of the money during the time it takes to complete the investigation. If you are asked to put your complaint or question in writing, and your letter is not received in ten (10) business days, your account may not be provisionally credited.

We will give you the results of our investigation within three (3) business days after completing the investigation. If the investigation concludes there was no error, you will receive a written explanation. In this case, any provisional credit made to your bank account may be reversed and you authorize our Network Banks to debit the bank account you have registered with SecureExchange. You may request copies of the documents that were used in the investigation.

B. Business Accounts Only

You agree to: 1) keep your password secure and strictly confidential, providing it only to authorized signers on your account(s); 2) instruct each person to whom you give your password that he or she is not to disclose it to any unauthorized person; and 3) immediately notify us and select a new password if you believe your password may have become known to an unauthorized person. We will have no liability to you for any unauthorized payment or transfer made using your password that occurs before you have notified us of possible unauthorized use and we have had a reasonable opportunity to act on that notice. We may suspend or cancel your password even without receiving such notice from you, if we suspect your password is being used in an unauthorized or fraudulent manner.

We will have no liability to you for any errors or losses you sustain in using the Service except where we fail to exercise ordinary care in processing any transaction. Our liability in any case will be limited to the amount of any funds improperly transferred from your account less any amount which, even with the exercise of ordinary care, would have been lost.

Without regard to care or lack of care of either you or us, a failure on your part to report to us any unauthorized transfer or error from your account within thirty (30) days of your receipt of a bank statement showing such unauthorized transfer or error shall relieve us of any liability for any losses sustained after the expiration of such thirty-day period and you shall thereafter be precluded from asserting any such claim or error.

11. Liability for Failure to Complete Transfers: Consumer Accounts Only

If a transfer to or from your deposit account in the correct amount or according to our agreement with you is not completed, we will be liable for those damages as the law imposes in such cases. However, there are some exceptions, and SecureExchange and its Network Banks have no liability for your losses or damages:

  • If, through no fault of ours, the sender does not properly complete the transfer to your account.
  • If, through no fault of ours, your account does not contain sufficient funds to make the transfer and the transfer would exceed any credit line or any overdraft protection for such account.
  • If our Services or Network Bank’s services weren't working properly, and the sender knew about the malfunction when the sender initiated the transfer.
  • If the financial institution holding your account mishandles or delays processing or posting a transfer facilitated by the Services.
  • If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevented the transaction or transfer, despite reasonable precautions we've taken.

The list of examples set out in this paragraph is meant to illustrate circumstances under which we would not be liable for a transfer not being completed and is not intended to list all of the circumstances where we would not be liable.

12. Notification of Change

Your financial institution may send a Notification of Change (“NOC”) to a Network Bank to indicate that your account information contained in an ACH entry is erroneous and needs to be changed. With respect to you sending or receiving payments through the Services, our Network Banks will share any NOC messages from your financial institution with SecureExchange. You agree that SecureExchange may correct your account information in our User database promptly upon receipt of that NOC notification without further notice to you.

13. Fees

SecureExchange charges no fees for your use of our Services to complete transfers between our Network Banks and you. However, SecureExchange reserves the right to charge a fee in the future for any current Services, and SecureExchange may develop new uses or other services for Users and a fee may apply for such other uses or services. You will be notified in advance of any fees in accordance with Section 2 above. Fees, when applicable, will be displayed prior to each use of Services. Please note that SecureExchange has no responsibility for any fees that your financial institution or your mobile carrier may charge you in connection with your transactions through SecureExchange.

14. Limitations on Transfers: Send Limits

Our Network Banks may impose limitations on transfers between their customers and you. Such limitations remain subject to the terms and conditions of the respective service agreements of our Network Banks with their customers.

We will limit the amounts you can send to a Network Bank customer using the Services (i) to $1,000 per calendar day, (ii) to $2,500 per rolling 7-day period and (iii) to $10,000 per rolling 30-day period. Such limits remain subject to change in the discretion of SecureExchange. In the event that your transfer exceeds a limit, you will be informed of the allowable amount you can transfer at that time.

15. Use of Our Site

You agree to access our Site in compliance with our Terms of Use, which are available on the “Terms of Use” tab on the Site at: https://www.SecureExchange.com/legal and incorporated into and made part of this Service Agreement by this reference.

16. Cancellation

You may cancel your use of the Services at any time by notifying us of your intent to cancel by calling us at 866-839-3488 or +1 501-748-8506. Canceling your use of the Services means SecureExchange will inactivate your access to our Site, as well as your profile ID in the Network Directory. At the time you instruct SecureExchange to cancel your use of the Services, any transfers in process using the Services will be completed to or from your bank account that was associated with your profile ID, but no new transfers will be initiated to or from that bank account through SecureExchange. You must re-enroll with SecureExchange, or enroll with a P2P service at one of the Network Banks to receive any subsequent payments that a Network Bank customer sends to you after you cancel your use of the Service.

17. SecureExchange Right to Terminate Access

Subject to applicable law, SecureExchange may terminate or suspend this Service Agreement and your use of our Site and our Services, in whole or in part, at any time for any reason without cause and without prior notice. Any obligations or liabilities incurred by you prior to the date of termination shall survive the termination of this Service Agreement.

You understand that at any time during the term of this Service Agreement your financial institution may become a Network Bank and you may become ineligible to continue as a User.
