3. Payment and Fees

3.1 Paid Services

Some portions of the Service may have fees associated with them (each, a “Paid Service”). You will have the opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged before using a Paid Service. We may change fees for any portion of the Service at any time. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars. One such Paid Service may be the Digital Sales Feature, further described in the Digital Sales Section below.

3.2 Free Trial

We may make available a free trial for a Paid Service without charge to you (“Free Trial”). You may be required to enter a Payment Method (defined below) in order to register for a Free Trial. The applicable Paid Service will automatically commence, and your Payment Method will be charged in accordance with Section 3.3, at the end of the Free Trial unless you log into your account and cancel the Paid Service before the end of the Free Trial.

3.3 Payment Information

You are solely responsible for paying all fees and applicable taxes associated with the Services in a timely manner with a valid payment method. By electing to purchase or otherwise use a Paid Service, you authorize FlipBuilder or its third party payment processors to charge the credit card or other payment method identified by you (“Payment Method”), which you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use, all applicable fees for that Paid Service, including all applicable taxes. For purchases of one-time Paid Services (i.e., not subscriptions), your Payment Method will be billed for that Paid Service on the date that you make the purchase.

3.4 Subscriptions

For purchases of subscriptions to Paid Services:
Your “Subscription Billing Date” is the date when you purchase your first subscription to a Paid Service. For example, if you purchase your first subscription to a Paid Service on January 10th: (1) your Subscription Billing Date for your first monthly subscription and all other monthly subscriptions you purchase is the 10th of each month, (2) your Subscription Billing Date for your first annual subscription is January 10th of each year, and (3) your Subscription Billing Date for all subsequent purchases of annual subscriptions will be the next soonest 10th monthly calendar day after your date of purchase. Your Payment Method will be charged automatically on the Subscription Billing Date all applicable fees for the next month or year, as applicable. For any subscription to a Paid Service that you purchase after your Subscription Billing Date is established, your Payment Method will first be not charged a pro-rata amount of the subscription fee for the number of days between the purchase date and the applicable Subscription Billing Date. Your Payment Method will still be charged the full periodic subscription fee for the next month or year, as applicable, on each Subscription Billing Date.

You agree that our 3rd party payment processors shall be permitted to charge your credit card monthly in advance of providing the Service if you choose the monthly payment mode. The Service may be interrupted on accounts that reach 10 days past due. Accounts that are not collectable by our 3rd party payment processors may be turned over to an outside collection agency for collection.

3.5 Termination of Subscriptions

For any subscription to a Paid Service, that subscription will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next period’s (i.e., month’s or year’s) subscription fees to your Payment Method. We will bill the periodic subscription fee to the Payment Method you provide to us during registration (or to a different Payment Method if you change your account information).

Warning: termination of subscription may affect your content reading experience, including but not limited to access denied, deletion, having promotion ADs, and other consequences that we might change from time to time in order to keep our Service running more healthy and your interest in good-faith.

3.6 Third Parties and Fee Collection

You acknowledge and agree that any credit card and related billing and payment information that you provide to FlipBuilder may be shared by FlipBuilder with companies who work on FlipBuilder’s behalf, such as payment processors or credit agencies, solely for the purpose of checking credit, effecting payment to FlipBuilder and servicing your account. The terms of your payment will be based on your chosen Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution providing such Payment Method. For certain Payment Methods, the issuer of your Payment Method may charge you a foreign transaction fee or related charges. Check with your bank and credit card issuers for details. If your Payment Method for any Paid Service fails or your account is past due, (i) you agree to pay all amounts due on your FlipBuilder account upon demand, (ii) FlipBuilder may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms (this includes charging other payment methods on file with us) and (iii) FlipBuilder reserves the right to either suspend or terminate your access to one or more FlipBuilder Services or your account with FlipBuilder.

We use a 3rd party payment processor and billing provider (“Payment Processor”) to handle the payment flow. For this purpose, you will be required to also create a Payment Processor account and connect it to the FlipBuilder Payment processor account, in order to send and receive money. You must authorize the Company to charge customers fees for the digital goods they purchase from you, on your behalf. The billing information of your customer will be stored on your Stripe account and on ours as well. However, no confidential card information will be made available to FlipBuilder or to you.

Each buying transaction happens in 2 steps:

(a) to comply with the publisher’s terms regarding access to and use of such publication;

(b) to not make any claim against FlipBuilder or hold FlipBuilder liable in any way for your access and use of, or inability to access and use, such publication.
