- Compliance with the Rules.
You agree that the performance of any action by the Company to debit or credit an account or transfer funds
is excused from the performance of such action to the extent that the action is inconsistent with United
States law, including the obligations of the Financial Institution under Office of Foreign Assets Control
("OFAC") or any program administered by the United States Department of the Treasury's Financial Crimes
Enforcement Network ("FinCEN"). You agree generally and warrant to Company that all actions by You
contemplated by this Agreement, including the preparation, transmittal, and settlement of entries and

promulgated by any financial institution or payment processor (collectively, the “Rules”). You expressly
authorize Company to charge You with any fines or penalties imposed by OFAC, NACHA, or any organization or
entity, which are incurred as a result of non-compliance with the Rules by You and You agree to fully
reimburse and/or indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company for such charges or fines or any action taken
by any entity or organization related thereto. The duties of the Parties set forth in the following
paragraphs of this Agreement in no way limit the requirement of compliance with the Rules.
- Bodaty Services.
Bodaty provides Users with certain payment functionality through its online or mobile Application, deyaPay
(the “App” or “deyaPay”) that gives You the ability to send and receive electronic payments to other
individuals and entities that maintain a deyaPay Account and that have agreed to participate in the App and
to withdraw and deposit funds into the bank or credit union account that you link to Your deyaPay Account
(“linked Bank Account”). These services are enabled through various third party API services. Bodaty is the
provider of User Accounts (“deyaPay Account(s)” or “Account(s)") in deyaPay. Funds held in a deyaPay Account
are held by a financial institution (“Bank”) in a non-interest bearing account for your use and benefit.
Funds transfers are based on instructions issued through the App. You may fund transactions through the App
by (a) requesting a transfer from Your deyaPay Account balance held in a deyaPay Account, or (b) requesting
a direct transfer from Your linked Bank Account. In order to use the App’s payment functionality, Users must
open a deyaPay Account provided by Bodaty. A deyaPay Account, however, can only be accessed and managed
through the App or other apps that have licensed and integrated Bodaty’s deyaPay functionality.
Notifications of deyaPay Account activity will be sent by Bodaty via the App and/or the email address that
you provide to Bodaty. To enable these services, Bodaty must collect the information required from You under
the deyaPay Application that You filled out online or provided through the App for the purposes of opening
and managing the deyaPay Account. In certain instances, Bodaty may require You to provide additional data to
validate or complete the opening of a deyaPay Account and You agree to provide such data. You are
responsible for providing accurate and complete information for these purposes and to update Bodaty
regarding any changes to the information provided to Bodaty.
- Third-Party Providers. Functionality of the App is dependent upon the following third-party providers:
-
For credit and debit card payments processing, and ACH debits, the App is dependent on services provided
by Stripe Inc. By agreeing to this Agreement, and to enable these services, You acknowledge that You
understand and accept the Stripe Inc. Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, available at https://stripe.com/us/ssa,
in addition to this Agreement and Bodaty’s Privacy Policy.
-
For bank account validation (to ensure that your account is authorized and valid and linked to you) and
linking bank accounts to the App, the App relies on Plaid Inc. By agreeing to this Agreement, and to
enable these services, You acknowledge that You understand and accept the Plaid Inc. Terms of Use and
Privacy Policy, available at https://plaid.com/legal/, in addition to this Agreement and Bodaty’s
Privacy Policy.
-
For wallet and payments services, the App uses services provided by Apple Inc. and its Apple Pay wallet
and payments service. By agreeing to this Agreement, and to enable these services, You acknowledge that
You understand and accept the Apple Inc. and its Apple Pay Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, available at
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201469 , in addition to this Agreement
and Bodaty’s Privacy Policy. The App also uses services provided by Google Inc. and its Google Pay
wallet and payments service. By agreeing to this Agreement, and to enable these services, You
acknowledge that You understand and accept the Google Inc. and its Google Pay Terms of Use and Privacy
Policy, available at https://pay.google.com/about/terms/, in addition to this Agreement and
Bodaty’s Privacy Policy.
- Eligibility:
You must be 18 years or older and a resident of the United States of America to open an Account or otherwise
use the Services contained within this Agreement. You agree that You will not open or attempt to open a
deyaPay Account if You do not meet these criteria. Bodaty will terminate the Account of any User that does
not meet the eligibility criteria. Bodaty may ask that You provide certain information to confirm Your
identity, and You agree to provide such information.
- Password security:
You acknowledge and agree that the security procedures offered by Company, including (without limitation)
any code, password, personal identification number, user identification technology, token, certificate, or
other element, means, or method of authentication or identification used in connection herewith, constitute
commercially reasonable security procedures under applicable law for the initiation of Your use of the App.
You are responsible for keeping Your Account login information and password secure. If You share Your
Account credentials with another person, or fail to maintain the confidentiality of such credentials, You
are responsible for all activity that person conducts using Your Account, regardless of whether or not You
authorized the activity. Bodaty will never ask You for Your Account credentials. Account access is linked to
Your mobile phone number and uses One Time Passwords and mobile phone based biometric login methods of
authentication expressly authorized by You at the time You opt in to such methods, and it is Your
responsibility to ensure these remain secure. You are strictly responsible to establish and maintain the
security of Your device and credentials to safeguard against unauthorized transmissions. You represent and
warrant that no individual will be allowed to initiate transfers in absence of proper supervision and
safeguards, and agree to maintain the confidentiality of Your device(s) and any passwords. You authorize
Company to follow any and all instructions entered and/or initiated by You or Your device, through the App.
This shall be the case unless and until You or an authorized individual has notified Company, according to
the notification procedures of this Agreement, that Your account or any authorized, linked device has been
stolen, compromised, or otherwise become known to persons other than authorized users; and Company has had a
reasonable opportunity to act upon such notice. The occurrence of unauthorized access will not affect any
transfers made in good faith by the Company prior to receipt of such notification and within a reasonable
time period to prevent unauthorized transfers.
- Bank Account Verification and Authorization.
To enable deyaPay payment functionality provided by Bodaty, Users must expressly authorize and link a Linked
Bank Account to their deyaPay Account for the purpose of authorizing debits and credits to the Bank Account.
Your ownership of the Linked Bank Account must be verified before access to the payment functionality of the
App is enabled. This may be accomplished by Bodaty via one or more of the following methods:
- Micro deposit verification – provided by Stripe
- Instant account verification – provided by Plaid
- Other commercial reasonable account verification methods
In certain instances, Bodaty may require You to provide additional data to verify ownership of a linked
Bank Account and You agree to provide such data and to update such data. Users are currently only able to
link one Bank Account. You are required to provide Bodaty with any updates related to Your Bank Account
including all authorized users and signers.
You expressly authorize Bodaty to withdraw amounts authorized by You under this Agreement, without any
prior notice to You, via the automated clearing house (“ACH”) from your Linked Bank Account, including
without limit all purchases, refunds, chargebacks, and any losses suffered by Bodaty including fines,
penalties, or other assessments from any third party related to Your use of deyaPay.
- Transfer, Deposit, and Withdrawal Limits:
Users will have a transfer limit of $1,000.00 per transfer. Even if the system does not enforce the limit,
You are required to abide by this limit as a condition of Your compliance with this Agreement. Bodaty may,
at its discretion, impose additional limits on the transactions You conduct through the Services. These
limits may change from time to time in Bodaty’s sole discretion.
- Payment Methods:
Your Account balance consists of the funds You have in Your deyaPay Account balance that are available for
new transactions and are not subject to pending transactions. When You make a payment through the App, we
first check if Your Account balance can cover the transaction. You may also be able to fund payments with
your Linked Bank Account. Unless otherwise specified by You, we use Your Account balance first if the
balance is sufficient to cover Your payment. If there is not enough money available in Your Account balance
to cover the transaction, we may use Your designated primary Account or other card or linked payment method
("Payment Method") to make the payment in its entirety. This Payment Method may differ depending on the type
of payment You are making. If there is not enough money available in Your designated primary Payment Method
to make the payment, we will not complete the transaction. To manage risk, we may limit the Payment Methods
available for Your use to fund Your Account on any particular transaction. You shall at all times maintain
in Your linked Bank Account immediately available funds, sufficient to cover any and all transactions,
initiated by You. In the event there are not sufficient available funds in the linked Bank Account to cover
Your obligations under this Agreement, You agree that Company may debit any account authorized by You, for
any amount that You owe to Company, in order to obtain payment of Company's obligations under this
Agreement.
- Bank Fees:
You are solely responsible for complying with any terms or agreements set by Your bank or credit union with
respect to Your linked Bank Account, including any fee terms, such as insufficient funds or overdraft fee
terms. If You are entitled to a Reversal (as defined below), refund, or other adjustment associated with a
payment You made using the Services or App, You also authorize Bodaty to credit Your linked Bank Account to
complete that transaction.
- Automated Clearing House Clearing Times.
If You link a bank or credit union account to Your Account, You may add funds to Your Account, withdraw
money from Your Account, or send a payment using Your linked Bank Account. If You do so, You acknowledge
that normal Automated Clearing House clearing times will apply. This means that the funds should generally
be available to You or Your recipient within four (4) business days.
-
Negative Balances:
If Your deyaPay Account or linked Bank Account balance is negative, You will not be permitted to initiate
transactions through the App.
-
Fees:
Bodaty charges fees for various services in the deyaPay system, which are detailed in the Mobile Application
and Web Application. By using deyaPay You are agreeing to be charged the requisite fees for those services.
You shall pay Company the fees for the services provided in connection with this Agreement, as set forth in
Schedule E attached hereto. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY ALL FEES DUE FOR THE TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT
UNTIL YOU CANCEL BY PROVIDING NOTICE TO THE COMPANY. All fees and services are subject to change upon
thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice from Company to You. Such notice may be provided via
electronic communications, including but not limited to, electronic mail or through the App. Continued use
by You of the App, pursuant to this Agreement, after notice of a fee change by the Company shall be
conclusive proof that you agree to the new fee schedule, and shall be bound by same. Such fees or charges do
not include, and You shall be responsible for payment of, any sales, use, excise, value added, utility or
other similar taxes relating to such services, and any fees or charges provided for in the Agreement.
-
Withdrawal of Consent:
You may unlink Your bank account or other Payment Method at any time through the deyaPay Mobile App or Web

must be provided to utilize the App’s payment functionality. To withdraw all other consents provided by this
agreement, You may terminate Your Account pursuant to the procedures below.
-

Bodaty reserves the right to suspend or terminate a deyaPay Account at any time, for any reason. Reasons for

based on Bodaty’s confidential risk and security criteria. Bodaty also reserves the right to modify or

reasonable discretion, that the risk associated with the deyaPay Account is too high; or (c) for any other

been processed incorrectly to or from Your Account, or (d) Your Account statement contains an error
regarding Your transaction history (each, an “Error”). If You give someone access to Your Account and that

unless You are the victim of a phishing attack or similar exploit. You agree to and understand that You must
notify Company within sixty (60) days after the Account statement is provided on which the suspected Error
first appeared. Failure to notify us of any such Error shall amount to a waiver of any claim that You may
have, or assert, related to any charge. When You timely notify us of the suspected Error, please provide:
- Your name and Account number,
- The nature of the suspected Error and why you believe it is an Error, and
- The dollar amount of the suspected Error.
If you notify us by phone, we may require that you send us your inquiry by email within 10 business days.

We will attempt to determine whether an Error occurred within 10 business days after You notify us, and

needed to properly investigate a properly notified Error, we may take up to an additional 45 days to
investigate said Error. If we decide to do this, we will credit Your Account within 10 business days for
the amount of the suspected Error. If we ask You to send Your inquiry by email and we do not receive it
within 10 business days, we may not credit Your Account. For Errors involving new Accounts, we may take up
to 90 days to investigate, and may take up to 20 business days to credit Your Account.
Bodaty will tell You the results within 5 business days after completing our investigation. If we decide
that there was no Error, we will provide You a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the
documents that we used in our investigation.
