Perpay’s confirmation of receipt of your order does not constitute Perpay's acceptance of your order.

To make an order through the Services, you must be enrolled in Perpay’s payroll direct deposit program.

Returns: Please refer to our Return Policy found at: https://help.perpay.com/en/articles/108745-how-do-i-return-my-item if you would like to return any Product you purchased through the Services. Please note that the return policy varies by Product and not all Products are available for return. Please consult our Shipping and Return Policy for further details. Some items may be subject to a shipping and restocking fee. Damage claims must be submitted within 24-48 business hours of delivery, please inspect your order once it has arrived. Order Cancellation: If any Product is discontinued or otherwise becomes unavailable, Perpay reserves the right to cancel your order and provide you a credit for the amount paid for the Product. Restrictions on Resale: To protect the intellectual property rights of Perpay and its licensors and suppliers, to the extent permitted by law, any resale of Products for personal and/or business profit is strictly prohibited. Perpay reserves the right to decline any order that we deem to possess characteristics of reselling. Shipping: All items are prepared for shipment after your payment(s) via payroll direct deposit has been made on your scheduled payday. Risk of loss and title to items purchased from Perpay passes to the purchaser upon our delivery to the shipper. Depending upon your Product(s), shipments may be made in multiple packages and may be delivered on different dates. You will typically receive an email with tracking numbers within 3-5 business days of your first successful payment via payroll direct deposit, with the exception of furniture, mattresses, large TV's & other large appliances. These items are delivered via freight shipping and will require delivery to be scheduled with you directly. Please be advised it will take longer to generate tracking on freight delivery items. Items shipped via freight delivery (see individual product delivery details), in addition to all Ashley Furniture products, are unavailable to ship to US territories, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico Shipping surcharges may apply, but are not limited to, small parcel orders shipping to US territories, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. Customers are not authorized to alter shipper delivery instructions in any way. If altered, Perpay Parties (as defined herein) and the carrier shall not be liable for any loss, claim, liability, or damage of any kind (“Loss”). This includes, but is not limited to, UPS My Choice. You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Perpay Parties and the carrier from all Loss arising from or relating to the alterations of the delivery instructions. Perpay uses a third-party service provider for fulfilling orders. By ordering any Product through the Services, you acknowledge that Perpay has no responsibility or liability for any delays that may result from orders handled by such third-party service provider. Perpay Parties and the shipment carrier shall not be liable to you for any Loss, including but not limited to direct, indirect, consequential, special or exemplary damages, whether based on contract or otherwise arising out of, or resulting from, UPS's provision of, or failure to provide, shipping service, including by following consignee instructions, failure to follow consignee instructions, delivery pursuant or contrary to consignee's instructions, misdelivery, or delayed delivery. By selecting the Authorized Shipment Release service, you authorize the carrier to release packages addressed to you at your address when no one is present to receive the delivery and you will be asked and are required to accept responsibility for any loss or damage to the package after it has been released at the address. In no event shall Perpay Parties or the carrier be liable for any Loss, including but not limited to those arising out of, or resulting from loss, theft, alteration of, unauthorized access to, or acquisition of, your personal information, or other security breach, compromise, or incident involving your personal information, whether by third parties or otherwise, arising out of or resulting from the release of packages pursuant to the Authorized Shipment Release. Fees and Purchase Terms Assessment of Spending Limit: Your “Approved Spending Limit” is the total dollar amount you may use towards purchases made through the Services. Your “Available Spending Limit” is your Approved Spending Limit minus any outstanding balances you have on your Account. Perpay may provide an estimated spending limit as a guide when placing your first order. Perpay reserves the right to change your spending limits at any time for any reason, including without limitation, your past payment history with Perpay or changes to your Account information. Promise to Pay:Each time you purchase a Product, you promise that you have the current intention and, to the best of your knowledge, you have the current ability to pay the full Perpay Purchase Price for the Product in accordance with the Perpay Payment Schedule. Absent a violation of this representation, you are not legally obligated to continue making payments. Accordingly, you do not “owe” us anything and, if you lose your job, have a medical emergency, encounter other unexpected financial difficulties you may cease making payments without legal liability to us. Of course, we ask you to do your best to resume payments when you can and will not approve further Product purchases while any scheduled payment under the Perpay Payment Schedule remains past due. Additionally, if you have enrolled in Perpay Plus and we are reporting your performance to one or more credit bureaus, we may report your failure to make all scheduled payments to one or more consumer reporting agencies. You expressly acknowledge and agree that your credit report may reflect late payments or missed payments. Additional Fees: Perpay will not charge any additional fees as result of missed or late payments. ACH/Credit/Debit Card Payment Authorization: In the event that you are unable to make payments through payroll direct deposit for an existing order(s), Perpay can charge your bank account (ACH), credit card or debit card (a “backup payment method”) on your behalf to satisfy your outstanding balance for an existing order(s). Payments made through a backup payment method can be made on a one-time or automatic recurring basis. Perpay will not make one-time or recurring charges using a backup payment method on your behalf without receiving your consent. A backup payment method can only be used to satisfy an outstanding balance for an existing order(s), you will not be able to move forward with a new order(s) until you are able to resume making payments through payroll direct deposit. The Backup Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated backup payment method, and you must refer to that agreement, not this Agreement, to determine your rights and liabilities. Perpay uses Stripe, Inc. as a third-party service provider for payment services (e.g., credit card transaction processing, merchant settlement, and related services). By making payments via the Services, you agree to be bound by Stripe’s US Terms of Services available at: https://stripe.com/us/terms and Privacy Policy available at https://stripe.com/us/privacy.

Privacy To view our Privacy Policy, please visit https://perpay.com/privacy Clause We have put this Arbitration Clause (“Clause”) in question and answer form to make it easier to understand. However, this Clause is part of the Terms and Conditions and is legally binding. Background and Scope. Question Short Answer Further Detail What is arbitration? An alternative to a court case In arbitration, a third party arbitrator (“TPA”) resolves “Claims” (as defined below) in a hearing. It is less formal than a court case. Is it different from court and jury trials? Yes The hearing is private. There is no jury. It is usually less formal, faster and less expensive than a lawsuit. Pre-hearing fact finding (called “discovery”) is limited. Appeals are limited. Courts rarely overturn arbitration awards. Can you opt-out of this Clause? Yes, within 60 days If you do not want this Clause to apply, you must send us a signed notice within 60 calendar days after you first use the Communication Facilities. You must send the notice by mail to Perpay Inc, 2400 Market Street, Suite 300, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103 (the “Notice Address”), Attn. “Arbitration Opt-Out.” What is this Clause about? The parties' agreement to arbitrate Claims Unless you are a member of the Armed Forces or a dependent of such a member, protected by the Military Lending Act (a “Covered Consumer”) or unless you opt out, you and we agree that any party may elect to arbitrate or require arbitration of any "Claim" as defined below. Who does the Clause cover? You, us and certain "Related Parties" This Clause governs you, us and our “Related Parties": (1) our parents, subsidiaries and affiliates; (2) employees, directors, officers, shareholders, members and representatives of ours or such other entities; and (3) any person or company (including Pinwheel) that is involved in a Claim you pursue at the same time you pursue a related Claim against us. However, this Clause does not apply if you are a Covered Consumer. What Claims does the Clause cover? All Claims (except certain Claims about this Clause) This Clause governs all “Claims” that would usually be decided in court and are between you and us (or any Related Party). In this Clause, the word “Claims” has the broadest reasonable meaning. It includes contract and tort (including intentional tort) claims and claims under constitutions, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations. It includes all claims even indirectly related to the Communication Facilities, any Product, and purchase or our relationship with you. It includes claims related to collections, privacy and customer information. It includes claims related to the validity in general of the Agreement. However, it does not include Claims about the validity, coverage or scope of this Clause or any part of this Clause. All such Claims are for a court and not the TPA to decide. Who handles the arbitration? Usually AAA or JAMS Arbitrations are conducted under this Clause and the rules of the arbitration company in effect at the time the arbitration is commenced. However, arbitration rules that conflict with this Clause do not apply. The arbitration company will be either: The American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), 1633 Broadway, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10019, www.adr.org. JAMS, 620 Eighth Avenue, 34th Floor, New York, NY 10018,www.jamsadr.com. Any other company picked by agreement of the parties. If all the above options are unavailable, a court will pick the arbitration company. No arbitration brought on a class basis may be administered without our consent by any arbitration company that would permit class arbitration under this Clause. The TPA will be selected under the arbitration company's rules. However, the arbitrator must be a lawyer with at least ten years of experience or a retired judge unless you and we otherwise agree. Can Claims be brought in court? Sometimes You or we may bring a lawsuit if the other party does not demand arbitration. We will not demand arbitration of any lawsuit you bring as an individual action in small-claims court. However, we may demand arbitration of any appeal of a small-claims decision or any small-claims action brought on a class basis. Are you giving up any rights? Yes For Claims subject to this Clause, you give up your right to: Have juries decide Claims. Have courts, other than small-claims courts, decide Claims. Serve as a private attorney general or in a representative capacity. Join a Claim you have with a Claim by other consumers. Bring or be a class member in a class action or class arbitration. We also give up the right to a jury trial and to have courts decide Claims you wish to arbitrate. Can you or another consumer start class arbitration? No The TPA is not allowed to handle any Claim on a class or representative basis. All Claims subject to this Clause must be decided in an individual arbitration or an individual small-claims action. This Clause will be void if a court rules that the TPA can decide a Claim on a class basis and the court's ruling is not reversed on appeal. What happens if part of this Clause cannot be enforced? It depends. If any portion of this Clause cannot be enforced, the rest of this Clause will continue to apply, except that: If a court rules that the TPA can decide a Claim on a class or other representative basis and the court's ruling is not reversed on appeal, only this sentence will apply and the remainder of this Clause will be void. AND If a party brings a Claim seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the restrictions in this Clause prohibiting the TPA from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such Claim (and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted), the Claim for public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual Claims seeking monetary relief will be arbitrated. In such a case the parties agree to request that the court stay the Claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration award pertaining to individual relief has been entered in court. In no event will a Claim for class relief or public injunctive relief be arbitrated. What law applies? The Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) This Agreement involves interstate commerce. Thus, the FAA governs this Clause. The TPA must apply substantive law consistent with the FAA. The TPA must honor statutes of limitation and privilege rights. Punitive damages are governed by the constitutional standards that apply in judicial proceedings. Will anything you do make this Clause ineffective? No This Clause stays in force even if: (1) any or all of the Agreements are ended; or (2) we transfer or assign our rights under any or all of the Agreements. Process. Question Short Answer Further Detail What must a party do before starting a lawsuit or arbitration? Send a written Claim Notice and work to resolve the Claim Before starting a lawsuit or arbitration, the Claimant must comply with Section 18 of this Agreement, captioned “Notice and Cure.” How does arbitration start? Mailing a notice If the parties do not reach an agreement to resolve the Claim within 30 days after notice of the Claim is received, the Claimant may start a lawsuit or arbitration, subject to the terms of this Clause. To start arbitration, the Claimant picks the arbitration company and follows the arbitration company's rules. If one party starts or threatens a lawsuit, the other party can demand arbitration. This demand can be made in court papers. It can be made if a party starts a lawsuit on an individual basis and then tries to pursue a class action. Once an arbitration demand is made, no lawsuit can be brought and any existing lawsuit must stop. Will any hearing be held nearby? Yes The TPA may decide that an in-person hearing is unnecessary and that he or she can resolve a Claim based on written filings and/or a conference call. However, any in-person arbitration hearing must be held at a place reasonably convenient to you. What about appeals? Very limited Appeal rights under the FAA are very limited. The TPA's decision will be final and binding, except for any FAA appeal right. Any appropriate court may enter judgment upon the arbitrator's award. Do arbitration awards affect other disputes? No No arbitration award involving the parties will have any impact as to issues or claims in any dispute involving anyone who is not a party to the arbitration, nor will an arbitration award in prior disputes involving other parties have any impact in an arbitration between the parties to this Clause. Arbitration Fees and Awards. Question Short Answer Further Detail Who bears arbitration fees? Usually, we do We will pay all filing, administrative, hearing and TPA fees if you act in good faith, cannot get a waiver of such fees and ask us to pay. When will we cover your legal fees and costs? If you win If you win an arbitration, we will pay your reasonable fees and costs for attorneys, experts and witnesses. We will also pay these amounts if required under applicable law or the arbitration company's rules or if payment is required to enforce this Clause. The TPA shall not limit his or her award of these amounts because your Claim is for a small amount. Will you ever owe us for arbitration or attorneys' fees? Only for bad faith The TPA can require you to pay fees incurred by us if (and only if): (1) the TPA finds that you have acted in bad faith (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)); and (2) this power does not make this Clause invalid. Can a failure to resolve a Claim informally result in a larger recovery for you? Yes You are entitled to an arbitration award of at least $5,000 if: (1) you give us notice of a Claim on your own behalf (and not on behalf of any other party) and comply with all of the requirements of this Clause (including the requirements described in response to the question reading "What must a party do before starting a lawsuit or arbitration?)"; and (2) the TPA awards you money damages greater than the last amount you requested at least ten days before the arbitration commenced. This is in addition to the attorneys' fees and expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) to which you are otherwise entitled. This $5,000 minimum award is a single award that applies to all Claims you have raised or could have raised in the arbitration. Multiple awards of $5,000 are not contemplated by this Clause. Settlement demands and offers are strictly confidential. They may not be used in any proceeding by either party except to justify a minimum recovery of $5,000. Can an award be explained? Yes A party may request details from the TPA, within 14 days of the ruling. Upon such request, the TPA will explain the ruling in writing.
