Welcome to the Genwise Service Partner Program. Please review this agreement carefully and consult legal counsel before accepting.

THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES PROVISION THAT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

Genwise Inc. (along with its affiliates, collectively, “Genwise”) owns and operates a virtual entrepreneur and business studio (the “Genwise Studio”) for the streamlining, growth, operation, and acceleration of small businesses through various websites, applications, services, and software (the “System”) that facilitate an online provision of business to business (B2B) and business to consumer (B2C) services among third parties as well as the use of third party business software on our platforms, including without limitation our website, our mobile application and our software (collectively, the “Services”). Genwise also provides a network (“Network”) of vetted service partners who offer business and technological services, products, and support (each a “Service Partner” and the products and services they provide, the “Service Partner Services”) to Genwise’s business to business clients in the Genwise Studio (its “Genwise Clients” and individually, the “ Genwise Client”). Upon becoming a Genwise Service Partner, Genwise may from time to time refer business to you for the provision of Service Partner Services to the Genwise Client subject to these Service Partner Terms of Use.

By accessing the System and/or providing the Service Partner Services to the Genwise Client and/or agreeing to these Service Partner Terms of Use, you agree that you are authorized to accept the terms set forth herein (the “Service Partner Terms of Use”) on behalf of yourself and your company and that you and your company are and will be bound by the Service Partner Terms of Use. In these Service Partner Terms of Use, we may refer to Genwise Inc. and its affiliates as “Genwise,” “us,” or “we,” and “you” shall refer to you and your company. Any and all use of the System and the Services and provision of the Service Partner Services is subject to these Service Partner Terms of Use. If you do not agree to be subject to these Service Partner Terms of Use, do not use the System, or accept the referral of Service Partner Services by Genwise. By continuing to use the System, or providing the Service Partner Services, you agree to continue to be bound by these Service Partner Terms of Use.

Genwise reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to change, modify, update, add, or remove portions of the Service Partner Terms of Use at any time, upon 14 days’ written notice to you via email. You may accept or reject those changes, and your continued use of the System and the Services after 14 days’ written notice of any changes to the Service Partner Terms of Use to you will signify your acceptance of those changes. If you reject those changes and do not reach a new written agreement with Genwise within 14 days of such notice, you will cease to be a Genwise Service Partner.

2. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT

These Service Partner Terms of Use cover your use of the System and the Services and provision of the Service Partner Services, including, but not limited to, the process by which consumers contact, engage, and enter into commercial arrangements and contracts with you as well as your management of such arrangements and provision of your services or products through the Services, as applicable, and you agree that these Service Partner Terms of Use apply to your use of the System and the Services and the provision of the Service Partner Services. By using the System and the Services, you also consent and agree to the terms of the Genwise Privacy Policy and the Genwise General Terms of Use, and all other Genwise legal policies applicable to you, whether available on this website or not. The Genwise Privacy Policy and Genwise General Terms of Use may be updated at any time by Genwise upon written notice to you via email. Your continued use of the System shall constitute your agreement to such changes.

3. CHANGES TO THE SERVICES

Genwise has the right to change or modify, upgrade, add to, or discontinue the Services and/or the System or any portion or feature thereof at any time without notice. Genwise also reserves the right to assign any rights, licenses, or obligations arising out of or relating to these Service Partner Terms of Use without restriction.

4. REGISTRATION

You must register as a prospective Service Partner to access and use the System, the Services, and the Network. If you are registering on behalf of a company, by registering you agree that you have the requisite authority to register on behalf of such company. The email address you provide during your registration will be the login for your Genwise account. Each account must have a unique email address and you agree that you shall not attempt to create more than one account under the same email address.

You represent that any information you provide during registration or at any time thereafter is true, accurate, and complete and that you will update all such information as necessary to maintain its truth, accuracy, and completeness. Failure to do so shall constitute a breach of these Service Partner Terms of Use. You shall be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and will be solely liable for all actions taken via your account and under your password, whether or not made with your knowledge or authority. You further agree that any account information you provide during registration or at any time thereafter is valid and that you have the authority to authorize payments to and from such accounts. You also agree to be paid for your work as a Service Partner according to our payment terms in these Service Partner Terms of Use.

You may provide your employees and independent contractors who are acting for your benefit and on your behalf (collectively, “Authorized Users”) with access to the Services by registering them along with their unique email addresses under your account; provided that such Authorized Users’ use of the Services is for your benefit only and remains in compliance with these Service Partner Terms of Use; and provided further that each Authorized User must review and agree to these Service Partner Terms of Use (and any posted changes thereto) prior to using the Services. If any Authorized User stops working or providing services for you, you must immediately terminate that person’s access to the Services by updating your account registration. You shall be responsible and liable for any and all actions taken using your or any of your Authorized Users’ credentials to access the Services. You shall be responsible and liable for all Authorized Users’ use and access of the Services, and their compliance with or their breach of these Service Partner Terms of Use.

5. FEES; PAYMENT TERMS; NON-CIRCUMVENTION; NON-COMPETITION

Generally, for all transactions for products and services that you sell to a third-party user of the System, including without limitation Service Partner Services, you will pay a commission to Genwise for such products and services (the “Genwise Commission”), generally 20% of charged amounts for residual commissions on repeat charges to Genwise Clients from the Genwise Marketplace and 20% for single, one-off transactions to non-Genwise Clients whom you have been connected with from the Genwise Marketplace. The manner of collection of the Genwise Commission is through Genwise’s unified billing program with Genwise Clients. Genwise will charge the full amount to the Genwise Client for the work performed by you and will remit the remainder of the funds collected from the client after the deduction of the Genwise Commission by Genwise.

You agree that the address, account information, and email address you provide in your account settings are valid business addresses and that Genwise may invoice you at such addresses or through other electronic or facsimile communications.

Any charge invoiced to you by Genwise is exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States (federal or state) taxes based solely on Genwise’s income. All fees paid to Genwise by you pursuant to these Service Partner Terms of Use are nonrefundable.

Except for business software that is on an automated periodic payment schedule, for each Genwise Client for all Service Partner Services provided to such Genwise Client (the “Monthly Work”), you shall send a unique detailed monthly invoice to Genwise for the work completed and services or products provided to such Genwise Client in any given calendar month at the end of such month based upon your proposal to such Genwise Client and the hourly rates therein for such Monthly Work. Upon receipt of such invoice, Genwise shall confirm that the work has been performed in a satisfactory manner (to a standard equivalent to that of a qualified professional company in good standing that offers similar services to that provided by you in the Monthly Work) and, if the work in the Invoice is complete to such standard, bill the Genwise Client as part of its unified billing service for the Service Partner Services and you agree that you shall be paid by Genwise from funds received by such Genwise Client upon the later of (i) 15 days thereof and (ii) the date upon which Genwise receives payment from the Genwise Client for such Monthly Work, less any deductions for the Genwise Commission on all such Monthly Work and less any amounts that are disputed and unpaid by such Genwise Client. You acknowledge that it may take up to three business days to process payments to you in addition to any timeframes for payment listed herein. Genwise shall only facilitate such payments for Monthly Work and shall not become a creditor of you or the Genwise Client and Genwise and its affiliates and employees shall not be responsible for any non-payment or late payment by such Genwise Client for any Monthly Work. All payments to you hereunder from Genwise shall be made by Veem or such other third-party online payment service or other method that Genwise from time to time determines in its sole discretion, and you agree to be subject to the terms and conditions of such third-party payment providers terms and conditions of use.

Non-Circumvention of Genwise Commission Payments.

You acknowledge and agree that a substantial portion of the compensation Genwise receives for making the System and the Genwise Clients available to you is collected through the Genwise Commission. Genwise only receives this Genwise Commission when a Genwise Client and a Service Partner pay and receive payment through the System. Therefore, for 24 months from the time you identify or are identified by any party through the System or are referred to a Genwise Client by Genwise directly to provide Service Partner Services, (the “Non-Circumvention Period”), you agree to use the System as your exclusive method to request, make, and receive all payments for work directly or indirectly with that party or arising out of your relationship with that party (the “Genwise Relationship”). For the avoidance of doubt, if you, or the business you represent, did not identify and were not identified by another party through the System or were not otherwise introduced through Genwise, such as if you and another Genwise Client worked together before meeting on the System, then the Non-Circumvention Period does not apply. If you use the System as an employee, agent, or representative of another business, then the Non-Circumvention Period applies to you and other employees, agents, or representatives of the business when acting in that capacity with respect to the other Genwise Client.

You agree not to circumvent the payment methods offered by Genwise. By way of illustration and not in limitation of the foregoing, you agree not to:

Submit proposals or solicit parties identified through the System to contract, hire, work with, or pay outside the System.
Accept proposals or solicit parties identified through the System to contract, invoice, or receive payment outside the System.
Invoice or report on the System an invoice or payment amount lower than that actually agreed between Users.
Refer a User you identified on the System to a third-party who is not a User of the System for purposes of making or receiving payments off the System.

You agree to notify Genwise immediately if a person suggests to you making or receiving payments outside of the System in violation of this Section 5.1. If you are aware of a breach or potential breach of this non-circumvention agreement, please submit a confidential report to Genwise by sending an email message to: legal@genwise.com.

If you refuse to accept any new version of the Service Partner Terms of Use or elect not to comply with certain conditions of using the System, such as minimum rates supported on the System and therefore choose to cease using the System, and you wish to continue doing business with a Genwise Client or User you connected with through the System you may pay an opt-out fee to be separately negotiated between you and Genwise.

6. PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION; INVOICING

You will invoice Genwise Clients for whom you provide work on a monthly basis for all amounts due to you on a net 15 days from the date of invoice basis, accounting for the Genwise Commission.

There may be time lags between the time that Genwise receives payment for such Monthly Work provided by you to the Genwise Client and the time that you are paid for such Monthly Work, which shall allow Genwise to process and account for such payments. Each invoice shall set forth the fees to be incurred by you in the prior month (a “Genwise Invoice”). We agree to invoice you within one week of the first day of the applicable calendar month provided we have received your invoice for the Monthly Work by the last calendar day of the preceding month and otherwise delayed on a day for day basis for each day that you send an invoice after the last calendar day of the month (the “Invoice Posting Date”).

7. NONPAYMENT

If, for whatever reason, you owe Genwise any amounts under this agreement, pursuant to Section 5, above, or otherwise, and the payment is not promptly paid, Genwise reserves the right to suspend your access to the System and the Services and suspend you from providing further Service Partner Services to any Genwise Client. If you fail to pay the applicable invoice within 10 days of the date of suspension, or to otherwise negotiate a payment plan for all amounts then due, Genwise reserves the right to cancel your account. In the event Genwise cancels your account for non-payment, all amounts due and unpaid from you to Genwise shall become immediately due and payable. In the event of non-payment and the exhaustion of the procedures set forth in this section, Genwise reserves the right to seek payment using any remedies allowed to it by law.

8. DISPUTED CHARGES

If you wish to dispute any charge by Genwise for Genwise Commissions upon Service Partner Services provided by you to Genwise Clients, you agree to submit the disputed charge to us no later than five (5) business days after we have collected the disputed charge (or in the event of non-payment invoiced you for such charge). You are responsible for timely reviewing any Genwise charges to you or Genwise Commissions collected. You may submit a disputed charge or Genwise Commission by only by contacting us by email to support@genwise.com. We agree to review your message and work with you to find a timely solution, provided that, if a solution is not found, the arbitration provisions of these Service Partner Terms of Use shall prevail in the resolution of such dispute.

9. ONLINE PAYMENTS

In connection with payments to be paid to or from Genwise hereunder, in addition to point-of-sale solutions, Genwise uses a third-party payment processor to process Genwise Payments. In order to receive Genwise Payments, you must register with an authorized third-party payment processor as determined by Genwise in its sole discretion. The processing of Genwise Payments will be subject to the standard terms of service and policies of such third parties, including, without limitation, such authorized third party payment processor and Genwise (including these Service Partner Terms of Use and Genwise’s Privacy Policy). Genwise may notify you of any such authorized third-party payment processor (or the un-authorization of any third-party payment processor) from time to time. You represent and warrant that any information you provide such as third-party payment processor or credit card reader service is truthful, accurate, and current. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for ensuring that any such information is current and that you may not be able to receive a payment if you fail to inform such third-party payment processors of any changes to your information, or otherwise provide inaccurate information. You further acknowledge that Genwise and such third-party payment processor are not liable for any missed payments due to your failure to provide accurate and current information in connection with the information that you provide to an authorized third-party payment processor. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any payment processor fees, credit card transaction fees, currency conversion fees, or any other fees charged by such third-party credit card reader or any third-party payment processor for the purpose of transferring payments to you.

Genwise does not control and is not liable for third-party products and services that are integrated with the Services, including credit card readers and the payment processing services utilized by you. YOU AGREE THAT GENWISE IS NOT A MONEY SERVICE BUSINESS OR PAYMENT PROCESSOR AND THAT GENWISE WILL NOT BE LIABLE, AND YOU AGREE NOT TO SEEK TO HOLD GENWISE LIABLE, FOR THE CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY GENWISE PAYMENTS, OR ANY PAYMENT PROCESSING ACTIVITIES, OR THE SECURITY OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY ERRORS MADE BY SUCH THIRD PARTY CREDIT CARD READER’S PRODUCTS OR THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSORS. Your and your Clients’ data security when using third party products and services integrated with the System and the Services (including third party credit card readers and the payment processing services provided from authorized third-party payment processors) is your responsibility. YOU AGREE TO IMPLEMENT ALL NECESSARY DATA AND INFORMATION SECURITY MEASURES IN ACCORDANCE WITH BEST INDUSTRY PRACTICES IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR PROCESSING OF GENWISE PAYMENTS AND FOR ALL DATA OF YOUR CLIENTS RESIDING ON OR PROCESSED BY DEVICES AND SYSTEMS OWNED, CONTROLLED OR OPERATED BY YOU. YOU AGREE NOT TO USE, DISCLOSE, SELL OR DISSEMINATE ANY INFORMATION OR DATA OBTAINED BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROCESSING OF A PAYMENT IN CONNECTION WITH THESE SERVICE PARTNER TERMS OF USE TO ANY THIRD PARTY OTHER THAN TO AN AUTHORIZED THIRD PARTY CREDIT CARD READER OR AN AUTHORIZED THIRD PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSOR, IN EACH CASE ONLY AS NECESSARY TO FACILITATE A GENWISE PAYMENT TRANSACTION. You agree that none of Genwise, any authorized third party credit card reader or any authorized third-party payment processor will be liable to you for any payments improperly processed by you, or any unauthorized, illegal or fraudulent access to your information technology systems (including any personal information, transaction data, passwords, account IDs or passwords stored therein) by a third party. You are solely liable for any and all applicable local, state, or federal taxes associated with such electronic payments.

Both Genwise and you agree that such authorized payment processor and authorized credit card reader is a third party beneficiary of these Service Partner Terms of Use and that such authorized parties will have the right to enforce these Service Partner Terms of Use against you as the third party beneficiary hereof.

Notices will be deemed effective at the time they are sent by Genwise or as of the date they are posted, regardless of whether you actually read any such notices.

You may opt-out of receiving notifications regarding transactions facilitated through the Services by logging into your account and changing the notification settings; opting-out of such notifications, however, will limit the effectiveness of the Services. You may not opt-out of receiving notifications relating to support of the System or the Services or other notices as required by law.

You consent that any emails, surveys, other information or feedback you provide to Genwise through the System or the Services or via any other medium, except for Personal Information, as defined in the Genwise Privacy Policy, can be used by Genwise in any manner, including but not limited to for testimonials, reviews and ratings on Genwise or third party websites.

The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed as preventing Genwise from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to protect any of Genwise’s proprietary interests. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU AND GENWISE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.

If any provision of these Service Partner Terms of Use should be held illegal or unenforceable by a court with jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified to the extent necessary to render it enforceable without losing its intent, or severed from these Service Partner Terms of Use if no such modification is possible, and the other provisions of these Service Partner Terms of Use shall remain in full force and effect. The section headings used are for convenience only and shall not be given any legal significance.

24. NO WAIVER
