The Card remains the property of the Bank and must be returned upon our request.

Subject to applicable law, the funds associated with your Card Account are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) for up to the maximum amount as published by the FDIC once your Card has been registered with us. You will not receive any interest on the funds in your Card Account.
You must activate your Card before it can be used. You may activate your Card on the Website or by calling (646) 480-9965.

You are responsible for all authorized transactions initiated and fees incurred by use of your Card and Card Account. If you permit another person to have access to your Card or Card number, we will treat this as if you have authorized such person to use the Card, and you will be liable for all transactions and fees incurred by such person, even if they exceed the authorization granted. Transactions will be considered unauthorized only after you notify us that the person is no longer authorized to use the Card. You are wholly responsible for the use of your Card according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
You may use your Card to make purchases at any merchant that accepts Visa debit cards or debit cards of other networks in which the Bank participates, subject to your available Card Account balance, the transaction limits described below, and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you use your Card number without presenting your Card (such as for a mail order, telephone, or Internet purchase), the legal effect will be the same as if you used your Card itself. Each time you use your Card, you authorize us to reduce the value available in your Card Account by the amount of the transaction and any applicable fees. You are not allowed to exceed the amount of available funds in your Card Account through an individual transaction or a series of transactions. Nevertheless, if a transaction exceeds the amount of available funds in your Card Account, you will be fully liable to us for the full amount of the transaction and any applicable fees. You may not use your Card for online gambling or illegal transactions. We may temporarily “freeze” your Card Account and attempt to contact you if we notice transactions that are unusual or appear suspicious.
When you use your Card or Card number to initiate a transaction at certain merchant locations, such as hotels, restaurants, gas stations, and rental car companies, where the final purchase amount is unknown at the time of authorization, a hold may be placed on the available funds in your Card Account for an amount equal to or in excess of the final transaction amount. The funds subject to the hold will not be available to you for any other purpose until the merchant sends us the final transaction amount. Once we receive the final transaction amount, it may take up to seven days for the hold to be removed. During that period, you will not have access to the funds subject to the hold. Please be advised that you may experience difficulties using your Card at unattended vending machines, kiosks, and gas station pumps. If your Card is declined at a “pay at the pump” gas station even though you have sufficient funds available, you should pay for your purchase inside with the cashier.
You may not use your Card to obtain cash at any point-of-sale device (“POS”) or at automated teller machines (“ATMs”).
Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the only funds that may be added to your Card are described below. You may not add funds to your Card Account from any other source, including credit cards, debit cards, bank accounts, cash or by sending personal checks, cashier’s checks, retailer load networks (e.g. GreenDot, MoneyGram, Western Union, etc.), or money orders to the Bank. The Bank will return all checks and money orders unless your Card Account has a negative balance, in which case the Bank may, in its sole discretion, apply the proceeds of the check or money order towards the negative balance of your Card Account. Proceeds from Sale of Accounts Receivable Compensation. You may arrange to receive the proceeds from your sale to Payability of your right to receive your Accounts Receivable Compensation under your Agreement by following the directions on the Website. Amounts added to your Card Account from your sale to Payability of your right to receive your Accounts Receivable Compensation will be available for transactions generally on the same day that Payability advises us that Payability has purchased your right to receive your Accounts Receivable Compensation. You may not add funds to your Card Account from the sale of any other asset you own.
The Card and the funds loaded to your Card are made available to you at the request of the Payability. The terms of your Agreement, and any payments your make to Payability for its services, or payment Payability makes to you for the purchase of your right to receive your Accounts Receivable Compensation, including the correct amount of funds loaded to your Card, are matters between you and Payability. We have no responsibility for resolving such disputes.
The maximum amount that can be added to your Card Account per day is $5,000. The maximum amount that can be spent using your Card Account per day is $5,000. The maximum amount that can be spent using your Card Account in a 30-days period is $10,000. The maximum amount that can be withdrawn from your Card per day is $100,000. In order to protect your Card Account, we may temporarily impose limits on the dollar amount, number, and type of transactions performed using your Card and your Card Account. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to: (a) change the transaction limits; (b) limit, block, or place a hold on certain types of transfers or transactions: and (c) limit, suspend, or block transfers from particular persons, entities, or Card Accounts.
It is important to know the amount of available funds in your Card Account before performing a transaction. You can obtain information about the current available balance in your Card Account by calling (646) 480-9965 or accessing your Card Account online at the Website. Each time you initiate a Card transaction, you authorize us to reduce the funds available in your Card Account by the amount of the transaction and all associated transaction fees. You will not be assessed a fee to check your balance using our automated telephone system. If you do not have sufficient available funds in your Card Account to cover the transaction amount, the transaction will be declined. You acknowledge and agree that the funds available to perform transactions are limited to the funds that have been added to your Card Account that are not subject to a hold. You are not authorized to use funds added to your Card Account in error. Any transaction that could create a negative balance for your Card Account is not permitted, but may occur in limited circumstances. Adjustments may be made to your Card Account to reverse an error, reflect a merchant adjustment, or resolve a dispute regarding a transaction posted to your Card Account. These processing and adjustment entries could cause your Card Account to have a negative balance. If your Card Account has a negative balance, you agree: (a) that we may automatically apply any subsequent deposits to your Card Account to satisfy the negative balance and (b) to pay us on demand by a personal check, money order, or other payment method authorized by us for the amount of the negative balance. If no future funds are added to your Card Account, we may send you a notice explaining the reason for the adjustment and requesting payment by a personal check, money order, or other payment method to satisfy the negative balance. Payments should be mailed to us at the address provided below or the address stated in the applicable notice.
You may obtain information about the available funds in your Card Account and a 60-day history of your Card Account transactions on the Website or by calling Customer Service. You will not receive paper statements for your Card Account.
If you provide your email address to us, we will send you important notices via email about your Card Account. In addition, if you provide your mobile phone number or other text message address to us, you expressly consent to receive text messages relating to your Card Account at that number or address. Third-party data and message fees may apply.
In order to use the Program services with your mobile device, you must provide a valid mobile device number or text message address on the Website and verify such number or text message address as instructed by us. To verify your mobile device number or text message address, we may send you a code via text message to the mobile device number or text message address you provide, and you must enter that code as instructed by us. If you change your mobile device number or text message address, you must promptly provide and verify your new mobile device number or text message address.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, you may use your Card to make regular, preauthorized payments to merchants. If a preauthorized payment will vary in amount from the previous payment under the same authorization or from the preauthorized amount, the merchant should tell you at least ten days before such payment when the payment will be made and how much it will be. You may choose instead to get this notice from the merchant only when the payment would differ by more than a certain amount from the previous payment or when the amount would fall outside certain limits that you set by notifying the merchant. If you have authorized us in advance to make regular payments with your Card Account, you can stop these payments by calling Customer Service at least three business days or more before the applicable payment is scheduled to be made. If we do not receive your request at least three business days before the scheduled payment date, we may attempt, in our sole discretion, to stop the payment. However, we assume no responsibility for our failure or refusal to do so, even if we accept your stop payment request. If you call us, we may also require you to put your request in writing and provide it to us within 14 days after you call. If we do not receive the written request within 14 days, we may honor subsequent debits to your Card Account. For individual payments, please specify the exact amount (dollars and cents) of the payment you want to stop, the scheduled date of the payment, and the identity of the payee. Unless you tell us that all future payments to a specific recipient are to be stopped, we may treat your stop-payment order as a request concerning the one payment only. If you order us to stop one of these payments at least three business days before the payment is scheduled and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages related thereto.
You should get a receipt for each Card transaction. You agree to retain, verify, and reconcile your Card transactions and receipts.
You will not receive cash refunds for Card transactions. If a merchant gives you a credit for merchandise returns or adjustments, the merchant may do so by processing a credit adjustment, which we will credit to the available funds in your Card Account. We are not responsible for the delivery, quality, safety, legality, or any other aspects of goods or services that you purchase with your Card. All such disputes must be addressed and handled directly with the merchant from whom those goods or services were purchased.
Your privacy is very important to us. We may disclose information to third parties about you, your Card and Card Account, and transactions related thereto: (a) as necessary to effect, administer, or enforce a transaction requested or authorized by you; (b) with your consent; (c) to protect against or prevent actual or potential fraud, unauthorized transactions, or other liability; (d) to comply with government agency or court orders; (e) as permitted and required by applicable law; and (f) as otherwise provided in our Privacy Policy. You understand that by participating in the Program, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as set forth in this Agreement and our Privacy Policy available on the Website.
The expiration date of your Card is identified on the front of the Card. If there is a positive balance of funds in your Card Account upon expiration of your Card and your Card Account is in good standing, we may issue you a new Card. We may also issue you a new Card when your Card expires even if you have no funds in your Card Account. If you need to replace your Card for any reason, please contact Customer Service. You will need to provide certain User Information so we can verify your identity.
If we do not complete an electronic fund transfer to or from your Card Account on time or in the correct amount according to this Agreement, we may be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable if: (a) through no fault of ours, you do not have enough available funds in your Card Account to perform the transaction; (b) circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, water damage, power failure, strike, labor dispute, computer breakdown, telephone line disruption, or natural disaster) prevent or delay the transfer despite reasonable precautions taken by us; (c) the system, ATM, or point-of-sale terminal was not working properly and you knew about the problem when you initiated the transaction; (d) the funds in your Card Account are subject to legal process or are otherwise not available for transactions; (e) the merchant refuses to accept your Card; (f) if access to your Card has been blocked after you reported your Card lost or stolen; (g) if we have reason to believe the transaction is unauthorized; (h) the transaction cannot be completed because your Card is damaged; or (i) any other exception stated in this Agreement.

If we decide to do this, we will credit your Card Account within ten business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the funds credited to your Card Account during the time it takes us to complete our investigation.

For errors involving new Card Accounts or debit point of-sale transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate a complaint or question. For new Card Accounts, we may take up to twenty business days to credit your Card Account for the amount you think is an error.

You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation. If you need more information about our error resolution process, contact Customer Service.

We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate in asserting any available defenses.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or as otherwise required by applicable law, we, our affiliates, and the parties with whom we contract in order to offer the Cards, the Card Accounts, and related services are neither responsible nor liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or relating in any way to the Cards, the Card Accounts, any products or services purchased using Card Accounts, or this Agreement (as well as any related or prior agreement that you may have had with us).
For any and all controversies, disputes, demands, claims, or causes of action between you and us (including the interpretation and scope of this Section and the arbitrability of the controversy, dispute, demand, claim, or cause of action) relating to the Cards, the Card Accounts, or this Agreement (as well as any related or prior agreement that you may have had with us), you and we agree to resolve any such controversy, dispute, demand, claim, or cause of action exclusively through binding and confidential arbitration. The arbitration will take place in the federal judicial district of your residence. As used in this Section, “we” and “us” mean the Bank and its subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, and assigns and all of its and their respective employees, officers, directors, agents, and representatives. In addition, “we” and “us” include any third party providing any product, service, or benefit in connection with the Cards, the Card Accounts, or this Agreement (as well as any related or prior agreement that you may have had with us) if such third party is named as a co-party with us in any controversy, dispute, demand, claim, or cause of action subject to this Section. Arbitration will be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state arbitration law. The arbitration will be conducted before one commercial arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes. As modified by this Agreement, and unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “Rules and Procedures”). You should review this provision carefully. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you are GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights EXCEPT for matters that you file in small claims court in your state or municipality within the jurisdictional limits of the small claims court and as long as such matter is only pending in that court. Additionally, notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may seek emergency equitable relief in federal court if it has jurisdiction or, if it does not, in a state court located in the federal judicial district of your residence in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and each party hereby agrees to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within the federal judicial district of your residence for such purpose. A request for interim measures will not be deemed a waiver of the obligation to arbitrate. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. You are entitled to a FAIR HEARING, BUT the arbitration procedures may be SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. Arbitrators’ decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. You and we must abide by the following rules: (A) ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR US MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; (B) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF; (c) in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, we will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation, (d) we also reserve the right in our sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for any or all of the costs of the arbitration; (e) the arbitrator will honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized at law; (f) the arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award; (g) subject to Section 40 (Limitation of Liability), the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are expressly permitted by applicable law; and (h) each party will pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses, unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses and the arbitrator awards such attorneys’ fees and expenses to the prevailing party, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded will be determined by the applicable law. This Section will survive termination of your Card Account or this Agreement as well as any voluntary payment of any debt in full by you or any bankruptcy by you or us. With the exception of subparts (a) and (b) of this Section (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis), if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures, then the balance of this arbitration provision will remain in effect and will be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting part was not contained herein. If, however, either subpart (a) or (b) of this Section is found to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision will be null and void, and neither you nor we will be entitled to arbitration. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute will be exclusively brought in federal court if it has jurisdiction or, if it does not, in a state court located in the federal judicial district of your residence. For more information on the AAA, the Rules and Procedures, or the process for filing an arbitration claim, you may call the AAA at 800-778-7879 or visit the AAA website at http://www.adr.org.
