KUBRA TERMS OF USE
Last updated: February 14, 2024
KUBRA SERVICES
KUBRA ("we" or "us") is a third-party service provider that offers electronic bill presentment and payment services (the
"Services") to various companies (KUBRA's "Clients"). Depending on the particular setup, the Services may be accessed by
a user to sign up for notifications, view bills, make one time or recurring payments as well as other related functions.
These functions may be accessed from a variety of contact points such as: online through a website; a mobile
application; notifications through email, SMS text or push notifications; an interactive voice response (IVR) system; a
self-service kiosk; or a retail location that accepts cash payments.
ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
By accessing the Services you acknowledge and agree to be bound by the following Terms of Use as well as all applicable
laws. Please take notice that with limited exceptions, all disputes between you and us regarding these Terms of Use are
subject to binding arbitration on an individual basis rather than jury trials, including class action lawsuits, in
courts and only specific remedies are available to you.
CONDITIONS FOR USE
By accepting these Terms of Use you represent and warrant that:
- Any information you provide is true, accurate, current, and complete.
- You are at least 18 years of age and able to form legally binding contracts under applicable law.
- You have not misrepresented your identity.
- You are the legal owner of all accounts that are associated with payments made by you through the Services and
you are legally authorized to make payments using those accounts.
- You will not have a third party such as a debt consolidator, make payments on your behalf.
- You will not request a reversal of a legitimate payment transaction and understand that if you do your right to
use the Services for future payments may be revoked.
- Your use of the Services will not violate any law or regulations.
As a user of the Services you may be submitting bank account, card information, or other personal information such as
your email address and phone number to KUBRA and KUBRA's Client. You are responsible for any legal, regulatory, or
banking penalties and fees that may result from supplying false information. You may use the Services to make payments
on consumer and/or commercial accounts, depending on configuration. If the account used to make a payment is a banking
or card account for your business, then you must be an authorized signer on the account. We only process payments in
Canadian dollars. Further, you affirm that the payment you are making is not associated with a foreign bank account. We
do not support International ACH Transactions (IAT).
By using the Services to send payment instructions to KUBRA, you authorize KUBRA to send a message to your bank, card
provider, or financial network to verify account details and to charge your account and to send those funds to the
designated bank account of the business whose bill you are paying.
FEES
In consideration of the use of the Services, when making a payment you agree to pay a service fee, also known as a
convenience fee, for each transaction initiated by you (where applicable). The applicable fee will be provided to you
prior to your final authorization of the transaction. If you are paying by card or by your bank account, your card will
be charged or your bank account debited for the amount of the payment plus the service fee, or a separate amount
depending on the configuration. If you are making a cash payment, the service fee must be paid at the time of the
payment transaction. You agree to have sufficient funds available to pay your payment amount and the service fee.
Recipients or other third parties may choose to subsidize a portion of your service fee. If a subsidy is applicable it
will be presented to you during review of your payment prior to submission.
If any payment is returned unpaid from your financial institution for any reason you may be charged a return payment
fee. In addition, there could be charges that may be assessed by your card issuer, or your receiving bank, based on the
terms of the agreement you may have with those entities, and KUBRA will not be liable for any recoupment of fees
assessed to you. The principal funds do not pass into KUBRA's ownership at any time. KUBRA uses a bank processor as the
payment processor and any funds will go to the Payee's account.
SCHEDULED AND RECURRING PAYMENTS
Users may set up scheduled or recurring payments by storing their billing information on their account. By setting up
scheduling a payment or setting up recurring payments you authorize us to make one time or repeated payments to your
account based on the amount of the bill you receive, plus applicable convenience, service, or surcharge fee, and or
unscheduled charges to your payment account for future purchases you verbally or otherwise may authorize from time to
time, and if necessary, initiate adjustments for any transactions credited in error. You hereby authorize and abide by
the refund policy as set forth in this Terms of Use. This authority will remain in effect until notified by you in
writing in such time as to afford us a reasonable opportunity to act upon it.
For pre-authorized debit payments, you agree to waive your right to receive pre-notification of the amount of the PAD
and agreed that you do not require advance notice before the debit is processed. You have certain recourse rights if any
debit does not comply with your PAD Agreement with KUBRA's Client. For example, you have the right to receive
reimbursement for any debit that is not authorized or is not consistent with the PAD Agreement. To obtain more
information on your recourse rights, you may contact your financial institution or visit www.payments.ca.
LIMITS
Your payment account or your cash payment may be blocked from acceptance if in KUBRA's opinion the payment poses risks
to KUBRA's business. KUBRA may impose limits in terms of the number of payments made or the value of a transaction in
accordance with any of the following: limitations established by payment brands, limits established by retailers,
payment processors, or KUBRA's risk policy.
Use of the Services is subject to applicable law and all applicable rules of any clearinghouse or payment network
involved in collecting or processing your payment.
OVERPAYMENT
If your payment is returned for any reason, you may be liable for a return payment fee. If you over pay on your account,
you may not be entitled to a refund. If a refund is allowed, it will be processed to the same payment account that the
payment came from. If it is processed via EFT, refunds will not be made until at least 10 business days after KUBRA
receives the refund request.
If your card issuer is not located in Canada, and if a transaction is a chargeback, you will be responsible for the
actual amount of the chargeback transaction which may be greater than the amount of the initial transaction due to
currency conversion.
TIMING OF PAYMENTS
If your payment is received after the due date of your bill, for any reason, you will remain responsible for any late
charges and interest assessed. As a result, we recommend that you authorize your payment at least four (4) business days
before the actual due date. It is the day your payment is received, not the day that instructions are sent that
determines if your bill was paid on time.
