Monthly Recurring Billing. SYP! may, in its discretion based on the SYP! App used and/or other factors, and after delivering notice to your registered email address, charge your authorized payment instrument for your authorized transaction charges by grouping the amounts of such individual transactions in a single bundled charge each month.

SYP! typically charges your payment instrument in a recurring charge once per month, on the same day each month. You will be notified in advance by email of the date of your recurring charge. SYP! may group transactions for up to thirty-one (31) days following a transaction before submission of a grouped charge to your payment instrument on the specified date. If activity within a period exceeds a threshold amount determined by SYP! (initially $150.00) and communicated to you in monthly email statement receipts, SYP! may submit a grouped transaction to your payment instrument prior to the date of your next regular recurring monthly charge. When we submit a grouped transaction, we will provide an email notification to you detailing the individual transactions making up the grouped total charge. The status and amount of any authorized but uncharged transactions will be displayed at all times in the transaction history of your User Account, accessible by logging into the SYP! App. By accepting these terms, you agree that SYP! may submit your previously authorized charges totaling less than $750.00 as a grouped single transaction charge on a recurring monthly basis without further advance notice to you. You may request that SYP! cease any authorized grouped transaction by mailing a written notice to SYP! at the address below at least three (3) days prior to the submission of such charge by SYP!, at least three (3) days prior to the submission of the charge, if followed by a written notice within fourteen (14) days. You may also request that SYP! cease grouping your future authorized transactions for submission, or that SYP! provide advance notice of certain grouped transactions, by mailing a letter request to Support Team, SYP!, 151 East 83rd Street, Suite 7F, New York, NY 10028 USA.

Upon SYP!’s notification to you of such failure, you agree to link a new, valid payment instrument within three (3) business days. Your SYP! User Account will be disabled until a valid payment instrument is provided and the outstanding uncharged balance is resolved by SYP!. SYP! is not responsible for any charges imposed by the issuer of your payment instrument as a result of any failed charge by SYP!. To the extent that SYP! is unable to successfully charge any payment instrument linked to your User Account as payment for authorized transactions for more than thirty (30) days, you understand and agree that SYP! may employ a collection agency or other business in an effort to collect any outstanding debts and fees associated with your User Account, and you will not contest the use of a third party to collect the debt and fees owed to SYP!.

Services shall not be used for the purpose of accepting or transferring security or payment for loans, providing cash advances, check cashing, or otherwise distributing cash to any person or entity, or in connection with any lottery or gambling activity. SYP! reserves the right to decline any attempted transaction if it appears that any of these User Terms have been violated.
Debit/Credit Card Statements. SYP! charges to your authorized payment instrument(s) may appear on your statement from the card issuing institution as “SYP!*” followed by an identifier related to the location of the transaction initiation, the third-party provider of the ordered goods, or as an identifier communicated to you to reference a grouping of multiple individual SYP! transactions. You agree not to knowingly falsely report such charges as fraudulent or unauthorized claims to your payment instrument issuing institution. A knowingly false report of a fraudulent or unauthorized charge shall be grounds for SYP!, in its discretion, to cancel your User Account, and seek any other remedies available to SYP!.
Transaction Receipts. SYP! will provide you with an electronic transaction receipt, through a message within the SYP! App and/or by email to the email address provided by you, following each SYP! transaction initiated using a SYP! App. The receipt will include the date, location, and amount of the transaction, as well as the identity of the SYP! merchant at which the transaction occurred.

SYP! Security; Reporting Requirements. SYP! implements a variety of methods, and proprietary protocols, to protect you from bad actors who may attempt to access and make fraudulent charges using your SYP! User Account, including an optional PIN lock feature. Because we are confident in these measures, we generally will not seek to recover from you reimbursement for any fraudulent charges made using your User Account. There are, of course, limits to this policy, which depend upon how quickly you notify us of a fraudulent activity:
Issuing Institutions. To the extent that the security of your payment instrument(s) is compromised in an event having no relation to the SYP! platform (for example, your wallet is stolen), and your payment instrument is linked to another User Account, your liability for any fraudulent transactions will be determined by your agreement with the institution that issued your payment instrument. With respect to your card issuing institution, federal law provides that, should SYP! fail to resolve a dispute as to property or services purchased from SYP!, you may assert against your card issuing institution all claims (other than tort claims) and defenses arising out of the transaction and relating to the failure to resolve the dispute. You may withhold payment to your issuing institution up to the amount of credit outstanding for the property or services that gave rise to the dispute and any finance or other charges imposed on that amount.
User Fraud. If SYP! determines that you have engaged in any fraudulent use of the SYP! Services, or use in violation of these User Terms, in addition to its rights to recover of any monies required to remedy such fraudulent use, SYP! shall impose a fee of one hundred ($100.00) dollars for each investigation by SYP! that results in a confirmation of such violation of these User Terms. By registering for a SYP! User Account, you agree to all additional fees and penalties that SYP! may impose in the event SYP! deems your use of the SYP! platform to be in breach of these User Terms, including without limitation the immediate termination of your SYP! User Account.

Users, such as loyalty reward programs, refer-a-friend programs, product incentive programs, etc. (“Programs”), and earn automatically any merchant-offered rewards, incentives, or discounts (“Merchant Credit”) and/or third-party-offered incentives, rewards, or discounts (“User Credit”) associated with your transaction. REWARDS APPLIED TO ORDER AHEAD TRANSACTIONS IN A SYP! APP WILL INCLUDE ONLY THOSE REWARDS DISPLAYED IN THE APP AND MAY NOT INCLUDE ALL REWARDS ADVERTISED BY A MERCHANT OR OFFERED BY A MERCHANT THROUGH OTHER CHANNELS, OR IN CONNECTION WITH MOBILE APPS OTHER THAN A SYP! APP. SYP! will also automatically redeem any Merchant or User Credit previously awarded at the time of purchase at the participating merchant’s POS, or at the time of mobile order completion, in accordance with the terms of such Program. Merchant or User Credit applied to the purchase will be deducted from the transaction amount charged by SYP! as part of the authorized charge to the payment instrument(s) associated with your User Account.
Promotional Programs, and Merchant or User Credit associated with such Programs, are offered by the merchant or funding third party alone (and not by SYP!) and the offering parties are responsible for setting applicable rules, including the expiration of any Merchant or User Credit, and compliance with such rules.
