Using a Beem account, you can do the following:

8.1 Send money to friends

You can send money to a friend using the Send feature in your Beem account (sometimes called “personal payments” or “peer-to-peer/P2P payments”). You can send money to a friend, even if they don’t have a Beem account, using their email address or mobile number. If the friend does not have a Beem account, they can claim the payment by verifying their personal information and your friend can choose to withdraw the money into a verified bank account or bank issued debit card or a pre-paid card or a gift card of choice. If they don’t claim any money sent within 7 days of the date it is sent, the payment will be canceled and any money (including any fees you were charged) will be sent back to you. Beem does not charge any fees to you for sending money.

8.2 Receive money

a. Add money
If we have verified the required identifying information (name, physical address, date of birth, and social security) that you provide to us, Beem may offer you the ability to add money to your Beem account from a linked & verified bank account or a linked & verified debit card, subject to the applicable fees mentioned on the
Pricing page. Otherwise, you cannot add money. Remember, you may use the payment methods linked to your Beem account to fund transactions and you don’t need a Beem account balance to send money. It is important to note that in order to use Beem services, you must link your own bank account. You cannot link an account belonging to your spouse or anyone in the family and friends. If we identify at any time on or after your Beem onboarding that the account that you have linked with Beem does not belong to you, then your Beem account services might get stopped or interrupted immediately in violation of the terms. The name on the bank account must match with the name provided as part of your PII details while signing up for a Beem account. You might not get refund of the services fee paid already. Beem reserves the right to refill the dues in your Beem account, from your debit card or bank account linked with Beem account. At any point of time money is credited to your Beem wallet balance, it will first settle your outstanding dues if any (any subscription fees, late fees, Everdraft dues, etc) and the balance amount will then be credited to your Beem balance.

b. Receive Money
You can receive money from your friends in your Beem account or bank issued debit card or bank account or prepaid cards or via gift card, subject to the applicable fees mentioned on the
Pricing pageAt any point of time money is credited to your Beem wallet balance, it will first settle your outstanding dues if any (any subscription fees, late fees, Everdraft dues, etc) and the balance amount will then be credited to your Beem balance.

8.3 Move Money out of your Beem Account

Money in your Beem account may be transferred out of Beem by: 

  • Transferring it via standard transfer (ACH) to a bank account linked to your Beem account for free, or 

  • Buying prepaid card or gift cards for free, or 

  • Transferring it instantly to an eligible verified debit card, subject to the fees applicable to such transfers that can be found on the Pricing page.

    Bank transfer reviews

    We review account and transaction activity at various times, including when bank transfers are initiated. This review checks for, among other things, suspicious or illegal activity, and whether your account activity and the activity of users with whom you’ve transacted comply with this agreement. In connection with our review process, you may be required to provide us with additional information and/or documentation to verify your identity. We may limit your account and your access to money in it or that is sent to you until verification is completed.

    Bank transfer reviews may result in: 

  • delayed, blocked or canceled transfers; 

  • money or payments being held by us; 

  • money or payments being applied to amounts you owe to us or used to offset loss incurred by us; 

  • account limitation, suspension or termination; 

  • money or payments being seized to comply with a court order, warrant or other legal process; and/or 

money or payments you previously received being reversed (i.e., sent back to the sender or to the card or bank account that was used to fund the payment).

Among other reasons, we may take the above actions if you knowingly or unknowingly were a participant in a payment that was made from a stolen card, compromised bank account, or compromised Beem account, or if you were a participant in a transaction for goods and services between two personal accounts.
BEEM SHOULD ONLY BE USED TO TRANSACT WITH PEOPLE YOU KNOW AND TRUST. DO NOT USE BEEM TO TRANSACT WITH PEOPLE YOU DON’T KNOW. IF YOU USE BEEM TO CONDUCT SUCH A TRANSACTION AND WE LATER REVERSE THE PAYMENT (WHICH COULD OCCUR IF IT IS DETERMINED THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS VIOLATED OR IF THE PAYMENT WAS MADE USING A COMPROMISED PAYMENT METHOD OR ACCOUNT), YOU COULD LOSE THE MONEY SENT FOR THEM.

8.4 Manage Money (“Budget”)

If you subscribe to Beem’s Personal Financial Management Services, you will have access to “Budget”, “Insights”, and transaction monitoring across all your linked bank accounts. With Budget, we track your income and expenses, and we let you know about estimated upcoming bills and other expenses. Budget will monitor your linked bank account held at a depository institution (a “Linked Account”) and generate an automated personalized budget for you along with letting  you know when you’re in danger of having insufficient funds in your Linked Account, helping you avoid overdrafts, returned transactions and bank fees. With Insights Feeds, we inform you about potential financial pitfalls 72 hours ahead of time, remind you of upcoming bills and subscriptions, exceeding budget limits, intelligent insights on where to spend and save and more.

8.5 Get Emergency Money (“Everdraft™”)

Beem offers Everdraft™ as part of its personal financial management suite of services. It is one of the many features delivered as part of the Beem subscription. Putting money aside for unexpected expenses is important. If you encounter an unexpected expense (medicine, gas, diapers, grocery, bills, etc) before you have enough money saved up, you can get access to amounts (called Everdraft™ ) between $5 to $1,000 to help cover the expense.
These funds could be the money from your income, side gigs, refunds, government benefits etc that you have set aside over time into your linked account/s. This feature has no fee associated with it, no credit scores or FICO credit checks are performed to deliver this service, using this service will not impact your credit, there is no interest associated with this service, there are no late fees for this service, there are no finance charges to use this service and there is no due date when you use this service which means funds delivered as part of this service are not due on Pay Day and being unable to settle the funds automatically on or before PayDay does not result in any fees or issues. However, just like the funds are not due on Pay Day, similarly your funds can be settled as soon as fund arrive in your account at any time as Everdraft™ is delivered in lieu of funds you are entitled to ahead of time for emergencies and when funds arrive into your account it is automatically settled. In other words, not having a due date works both ways. You might be able to settle the funds at a later time if funds you are entitled to are delayed but you may settle the funds ahead of time if funds you are entitled to arrive early. This service uses data from one or more accounts that you link to use Beem so you can manage your financial life better to deliver funds entitled to you and scheduled to arrive at a later time net of obligations (each, an “Everdraft™”). If you have subscribed to Beem's personal financial management services and we detect that you are likely to have insufficient funds for upcoming transactions in your Linked Account based on your previous account activity, we will alert you to the possibility of having insufficient funds through the Mobile App, SMS messages and/or email. Eligible users will be offered the opportunity to receive a free “Everdraft™” to their Linked Account or debit card, if applicable. You may also log into the Mobile App and request an Everdraft™ at any time. In all cases, you must affirmatively choose to receive or withdraw Everdraft™. The amount of each Everdraft™ you are eligible for is based on, among other things, whether you have an active account with transactions that directly relate to funds you are entitled to coming into that account like alimony, govt benefits, income, side gigs, regular transfers etc along with regular expenses a.k.a obligations. We reserve the right to Everdraft™ amounts and our eligibility criteria at any time. You are not required to make voluntary payments referred to as 'Tips' or 'Donations' in appreciation of the service provided.

A. Instant Transfer Fees

You may request that Beem expedite disbursement of your Everdraft™ using non-standard non-free methods by choosing that option on your own and may have to pay fees related to the same. There are multiple free disbursement methods available and you can choose any of them. You are not obliged to choose the non-standard non-free method. While you can generally receive an Everdraft™ within three (3) business days depending on processing times, if you choose the non-standard option and pay the fee, we will use a faster delivery method that will deliver the Everdraft™ to you within 8 hours. The fee structure is as follows -

Subscription Plan

Fee for Non-standard instant dispersal of funds

Basic ($2.47/mo)

$4

Plus ($5.97/mo)

$4

Pro ($12.97/mo)

$2

When you request an Everdraft™ and choose the non-standard non-free option to expedite disbursement of the Everdraft™, we will disclose the amount to you again through the Mobile App before you make your selection. The fee is auto collected with your Everdraft™.

B. Settling your Everdraft

Each Everdraft™ is auto-settled as your funds arrive into your account because the Everdraft™ was provided in lieu of funds entitled to you arriving into your account ahead of time, so when the funds arrive Beem will detect this and begin the auto-settling process including partially settling your Everdraft™ over time which means when funds arrive sooner, settlement will occur sooner and when funds arrive later than anticipated funds will be settled later giving you the ultimate flexibility. We reserve the right to charge your Linked Account or debit card for Beem any time after the later of: (1) we see evidence of funds you are entitled to deposit into your Linked Account or (2) the date selected by you through the Mobile App. However, Beem warrants that it has no legal or contractual claim against you based on a failure to repay an Everdraft™, but Beem will not provide you further Everdraft™s while any amount remains un-settled under the “Everdraft™” Service. With respect to a failure to settle an Everdraft™, Beem warrants it will not engage in any debt collection activities, place the amount owed with or sell to a third party, or report you to a consumer reporting agency. Beem does not waive any rights regarding fraudulent activity, and Beem will pursue instances of fraud. Although Beem is helping users avoid financial emergencies, Beem is not responsible for these emergencies including overdraft fees, over-the-limit fees, insufficient fund charges, or any other bank fees that result from your failure to maintain a sufficient balance in your Linked Account. Beem may reach out to you via phone call, email, sms, app notifications to inform you of what has happened, its impact to you and the community. Beem may also help you overcome your situation so you can continue to improve your financial health via the Beem subscription. Beem monitors your balance and will attempt to ensure you have sufficient funds before debiting your account, but Beem makes no warranties that an overdraft will not occur. At any point of time money is credited to your Beem wallet balance, it will first settle your outstanding dues if any (any subscription fees, late fees, Everdraft dues, etc) and the balance amount will then be credited to your Beem balance.

This data is collected when you are in a moving vehicle, even if you are not the driver.

By using the location services, driver behavior and detection features in a motor vehicle, you represent and warrant that you are the driver, or that you have the consent of the driver, for Company to collect and use location, movement and driving behavior information from your device to provide the Services, and for other purposes as described in our
    Privacy Policy.

B. Link or Unlink a Payment Method

You can link or unlink certain payment methods such as a debit card or a U.S. bank account to your Beem account. Please keep your payment method information current (e.g. debit card number and expiration date). If at any time, the debit card has expired or bank account has closed or deactivated, you must update the information in your Beem account to continue availing the services. It is important to note that in order to use Beem services, you must link your own bank account. You cannot link an account belonging to your spouse or anyone in the family and friends. If we identify at any time on or after your Beem onboarding that the account that you have linked with Beem does not belong to you, then your Beem account services might get stopped or interrupted immediately in violation of the terms. The name on the bank account must match with the name provided as part of your PII details while signing up for a Beem account. You might not get refund of the services fee paid already. Beem reserves the right to refill the dues in your Beem account, from your debit card or bank account linked with Beem account.

C. Fees and Payment Limits

1. We may, at our discretion, impose limits on the amount and/or the number of payments and transfers you can add, send and receive. You can view the limits on our Payment Limits page.
2. The fees applicable to adding, sending, receiving and moving money can be found on the
Pricing page. In order to manage risk, we may limit the payment methods available when you make a payment. Fees and limits may change from time to time in our sole discretion.

D. Subscription Fee

Beem tries to help as many people as possible but may not be able to help everyone. After Beem has determined if it can help you, it will present available plans to you. Beem has a freemium model with paid plans starting as low as $2.47/month (“Subscription”) to maintain a connection to your external bank account through third-party services, to access our account monitoring and notification services and the Personal Financial Management Services. Beem deducts the Subscription from your Linked Account or a linked debit card. The fee will be charged regardless of the status of your connection. If you are experiencing connectivity issues, please try to update your connected bank’s log-in credentials. If the Membership charge fails or the subscription dues are not paid on time, by agreeing to these terms, you authorize Beem to process any failed or missed Subscription charges together with the following month's Subscription which will be debited irrespective of the balance in your Linked Bank Account or Debit Card. Should all attempts fail, Beem reserves the right to charge the fee from another one of your connected bank accounts or debit card. You will be billed for your first Subscription on a monthly basis and always upfront. To help you keep your Beem services in active status and avoid late fees, your subscription for the immediate future month is collected in advance as soon as we detect funds in your account. This will also protect you from incurring late fees of $5 every month for every missed subscription, capped to $15 in aggregate late fees. You may choose to either cancel pause your subscription through the website or notify us by email at [email protected] if you do not want to renew your subscription. Your subscription would be canceled once all the outstanding dues are settled. The detailed fee structure and benefits under each plan, including the free services, are mentioned in the Pricing page on our website.

The Credit Monitoring and Identity Protect services available under the Pro and Plus plans get activated once the subscriber starts accessing the services on the Mobile App. However, if the subscriber stops accessing the services on the Mobile App, these services are auto-turned off on non-usage and get auto-activated again when the subscriber starts accessing the service. In order to enjoy the services by Beem, you need to have an active subscription and to help us provide continuous services, you should not turn off your debit card linked with the Beem account. Disabling debit transactions on your Beem account linked debit card is considered a breach of the terms and conditions you have entered into with us. Consequently, your Beem services might get impacted and you might experience delays in accessing the services on the Mobile App.

E. Late Fees for non-payment of active subscription

Our intention is not to charge any late fees to access Beem’s services. Beem will assume you will need the services you have subscribed to, in order to keep the services on. If there is a delay in payment of subscription fees only, then we would be incurring cost, which is why you may incur a late fee. A
late fee is applicable for active users whenever the subscription is not paid within 7 days after the end of the current subscription cycle i.e. calendar month. A late fee of $5 is billed for every missed subscription and it accumulates to $15 in the next 3 months if the subscription is still unpaid. In case of a financial hardship, the user can apply for a late fee waiver from the Mobile App, which will be evaluated for consideration.

F. Account Statement

You have the right to view all transaction history showing your Beem account activity. You may view the transactions in your Beem account by tapping on “Your transactions” section on the homepage of your Mobile App.

9. CLOSING A BEEM ACCOUNT

You may close your account and terminate your relationship with us without cost, but you must clear all amounts or fees due to us, including subscription fees. Any incomplete transactions or transfers must be completed or canceled. In case you have an active Everdraft in your account, you must settle the amount due, before cancelling the subscription or deactivating the account. In certain cases, you may not close your Beem account, including:
a. To evade an investigation
b. If you have a pending transaction or an open dispute or claim.
c. If you owe amounts to us.
d. If your Beem account is subject to a hold, limitation or reserve.

Once all dues are cleared, you can choose to cancel the subscription from our website and then deactivate the account, which can be done from the
trybeem.com website as well.

10. REFUNDS

Fees provide for non-standard non-free options such as instant disbursement, additional fees for subscription payment delays and the Subscription Fee are non-refundable. However, Beem at its discretion and based on request for financial hardship waiver provided by customer, may choose to waive one or more of these fees.

11. CREDIT AND DEBIT AUTHORIZATION

If you enroll in the Personal Financial Management Services, you authorize Beem to electronically debit your Payment Method for the Subscription Fee once each month. As applicable, you also authorize Beem to electronically debit and credit your Payment Method to correct erroneous debits and credits or to verify if this is a valid instrument that belongs to you. You have the right to receive notice of any debit for the Subscription Fee that would vary in amount from a previous Subscription Fee, but you agree that we only need to notify you in advance under these circumstances. (Our policy is that no single debit will exceed the amount shown to you and agreed by you, so we expect not to provide you with advance notice of each ongoing debit from your Payment Method).You acknowledge that, as applicable, the electronic authorization contained in this Section represents your written authorization for automated clearinghouse (“ACH”) and debit card transactions as provided herein and will remain in full force and effect until you notify Beem that you wish to revoke this authorization by emailing [email protected]. You must notify Beem at least three (3) business days before the scheduled debit date in order to cancel this authorization. When you call or email, please include the name and telephone number associated with your Mobile App user account. Failure to provide correct and complete information may make it impossible for Beem to stop withdrawal of the preauthorized transaction. You agree to indemnify and hold Beem harmless from and against any loss incurred as a result of its withdrawal of a pre authorized debit transaction from your Payment Method if any of the information relied upon in your request to stop payment is incorrect or incomplete. This policy applies only to accounts with no outstanding dues. For accounts with outstanding Everdrafts, you can request for temporarily pausing ACH payment processing by providing a valid reason. However, the ability to pause ACH auto-debits temporarily is limited. Each account is allowed to temporarily pause automatic ACH payment processing three times. During the pause period, you will still be billed for your monthly subscription so as to access other services included in your plan. You warrant and represent to Beem that you have the right to authorize us to charge and credit your Payment Method for payments due to us under this Agreement. If you have a joint Linked Account, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to (a) bind the absent account holder; and (b) enter into this Agreement independently. You agree to indemnify and hold Beem harmless from any claims by any other owner of the Linked Account. You represent that you are capable of saving or otherwise storing a copy of this electronic authorization for your records, and the credit and debit transactions you request comply with applicable law. See Sections below for more information about your rights associated with electronic funds transfers.

Beem reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you. You agree not to settle any matter without the prior written consent of Beem.

23. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION

YOU HAVE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THAT IT LIMITS YOUR RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REJECT THIS PROVISION AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 24.3 BELOW.

23.1 Election to Arbitrate. You and Beem agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 26 (the “Arbitration Provision”), unless you opt out as provided in Section 24.3 below. As used in this Arbitration Provision, “Claim” shall include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or controversy involving you (or persons claiming through or connected with you), on the one hand, and us on the other hand, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, and/or the activities or relationships that involve, lead to, or result from this Agreement, including (except to the extent provided otherwise in the last sentence of Section 24.8 below) the validity or enforceability of this Arbitration Provision, any part thereof, or the entire Agreement. Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); a constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include matters arising as initial claims, counter‐claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. Please note that you may continue to assert Claims in small claims court, if your Claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.

23.2 Applicability of the Federal Arbitration Act; Arbitrator’s Powers. This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”). The arbitrator will apply substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator may award damages or other types of relief permitted by applicable substantive law, subject to the limitations set forth in this Arbitration Provision. The arbitrator will not be bound by judicial rules of procedure and evidence that would apply in a court. The arbitrator shall take steps to reasonably protect confidential information.

23.3 Opt-Out of Arbitration Provision. You may opt out of this Arbitration Provision for all purposes by sending an arbitration opt out notice to [email protected], within 60 days of the date of your electronic acceptance of the terms of this Agreement. The opt out notice must clearly state that you are rejecting arbitration; identify the Agreement to which it applies by date; provide your name, address, and social security number; and be signed by you. You may send an opt-out notice in any manner you see fit as long as it is received at the specified address within the specified time. No other methods can be used to opt out of this Arbitration Provision. If the opt out notice is sent on your behalf by a third party, such third party must include evidence of his or her authority to submit the opt out notice on your behalf.

23.4 Informal Dispute Resolution. If a Claim arises, our goal is to learn about and address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. You agree that before filing any claim in arbitration, you may submit Claims by sending an email to [email protected] at any time.

23.5 Arbitration Procedures. The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) or Judicial Alternatives and Mediation Services (“JAMS”). The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. If you have any questions concerning the AAA or would like to obtain a copy of the AAA arbitration rules, you may call 1(800) 778-7879 or visit the AAA's web site at: http://www.adr.org . If you have any questions concerning JAMS or would like to obtain a copy of the JAMS arbitration rules, you may call 1(800) 352-5267 or visit their web site at: http://www.jamsadr.com . In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, or any other location we agree to.

23.6 Arbitration Fees. If we elect arbitration, we shall pay all the administrator's filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees). If you elect arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees) shall be paid in accordance with the rules of the administrator selected, or in accordance with countervailing law if contrary to the administrator's rules. We shall pay the administrator's hearing fees for one full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one day will be paid by the party requesting the hearing, unless the administrator's rules or applicable law require otherwise, or you request that we pay them and we agree to do so. Each party shall bear the expense of its own attorneys' fees, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives you the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein.

23.7 Appeals. Within 30 days of a final award by the arbitrator, any party may appeal the award for reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel selected according to the rules of the arbitrator administrator. In the event of such an appeal, any opposing party may cross-appeal within 30 days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed. Costs and conduct of any appeal shall be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the administrator's rules, in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and any panel award on appeal, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

23.8 No Class Actions. NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, no party to the arbitration may join, consolidate, or otherwise bring claims for or on behalf of two or more individuals or unrelated corporate entities in the same arbitration unless those persons are parties to a single transaction. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, an award in arbitration shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the claims in arbitration, and shall not (a) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party, or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party; nor (b) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than a named party. No administrator or arbitrator shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this Section 26.8, and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this Section 25.8 shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator.

23.9 Survival and Severability of Arbitration Provision. This Arbitration Provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision other than Section 24.10 is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. If there is a final judicial determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of this Arbitration Provision’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief or particular term, then that claim (and only that claim) or that term (and only that term) must be severed from the Arbitration Provision and may be brought in court. If an arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis, and the limitations on such proceedings in Section 24.8 are finally adjudicated pursuant to the last sentence of Section 24.8 to be unenforceable, then no arbitration shall be had. In no event shall any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims or make awards beyond those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.

23.10 Judicial Forum for Claims. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that this Arbitration Provision is found not to apply to you or your Claim, you and Beem agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Los Angeles County, California. Both you and Beem consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

23.11 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO LITIGATE. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY.

24. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

Except for Section 24 which is governed by the FAA, this Agreement and all Claims are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

25. ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFER DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

The following disclosures are made in accordance with the federal law regarding electronic payments, deposits, transfers of funds and other electronic transfers. There may be limitations on your Linked Account or debit card that restrict your ability to make electronic fund transfers. Any such limits are disclosed in the appropriate agreements governing your Linked Account or debit card. The disclosures in this Section 24 apply to all Services described in this Agreement.

25.1 Definitions.

  • Electronic Fund Transfer : Any transfer of funds that is initiated through an electronic device or computer to instruct us to debit or credit a Linked Account or debit card. Electronic Fund Transfers include such electronic transactions transfers initiated via telephone or the Mobile App.

  • Preauthorized Electronic Fund Transfer : An Electronic Fund Transfer that you have authorized in advance to recur at substantially regular intervals; for example, withdrawal of funds out of your Linked Account to pay the Subscription Fee.

  • Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfer is an Electronic Fund Transfer initiated by a person other than you who does not have actual, implied, or apparent authority to initiate the transfer, and from which you do not benefit. If you give access to your Mobile App user account to another person, all payments by that person are authorized unless and until you notify us that payments by that person are no longer authorized.

25.2 Your Liability.

  • Authorized Transfers : You are liable for all Electronic Fund Transfers that you authorize, whether directly or indirectly.

  • Unauthorized Transfers : Tell us at once if you believe your Mobile App Login ID or password has been lost or stolen or if your Mobile App user account has been, or may have been, subject to Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers. Contact us immediately to keep your possible losses to a minimum. You could lose all the money in your Linked Account(s).

  • If you tell us within four (4) business days after learning of the loss or theft of your Mobile App Login ID or password or after learning of any other Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers associated with your Mobile App user account, you can lose no more than $50. However, if you DO NOT tell us within four (4) business days after learning of the loss, theft or unauthorized use associated with your Mobile App user account, and we can establish that we could have prevented the Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfer(s) if you had told us in time, you could lose as much as $500.

  • If your periodic account statement issued by your bank or financial institution shows Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers and you DO NOT tell us within ninety (90) days after the statement was delivered to you, you may not get back any money you lose after the ninety (90) day period if we can prove that we could have prevented the unauthorized transfer(s) if you had told us in time. If an extenuating circumstance (such as extended travel or hospitalization) prevents you from promptly notifying us of a suspected lost or stolen Mobile App Login ID or password or of any other suspected Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers(s), the time periods specified in this Section 28.2 may be extended for a reasonable period.

25.3 Business Days. For purposes of this Section 28, Beem business days are Monday through Friday. Holidays are not included.

25.4 Types of Transfers; Limitations. You may use the Services to request and receive Everdraft™s to your Linked Account or debit card, to repay such Everdraft™s in the amounts and on the days you request, to pay voluntary tips to Beem, and to pay the monthly Subscription Fee. Any limitations regarding Everdraft amount, tip amount or Subscription Fee amount will be displayed to you through the Services. Through the Mobile App you may also authorize recurring preauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers from your Linked Account to pay for the Subscription Fee. See Section 11 for more information about stopping payment of preauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers.

Transfers between your Linked Account and Beem, as well as payments made to third parties through the Send a Check service, are governed by the Beem Deposit Account Agreement, available here. Please refer to that agreement for information concerning any limitations that may apply to these transfers and payments.

25.5 Fees. Beem charges no fees to access an Everdraft™. However, you may choose to pay an Instant Transfer Fee to expedite an Everdraft™ as set forth in Section 8.5.A.

25.6 Documentation. Your Everdraft™ and payment history can be viewed within the Mobile App by navigating to the “Your Transactions” section on the homepage depending on the type of transactions you seek to view. You are responsible for reviewing payment history and transaction history, if applicable, and maintaining copies for your records.

25.7 Our Liability. See Sections 22 and 24 above. If Beem does not debit or credit your Linked Account or debit card in accordance with these Terms, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:

  • If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your Linked Account or debit card to make a payment.

  • If the Linked Account or debit card you specify as the payment source is closed or does not contain sufficient funds to complete the payment or the charge is rejected or returned by your bank or financial institution.

  • If the Services were not working properly and you knew about the problems when you started your payment.

  • If we cannot complete a payment due to fraud or attacks on our systems or the Services.

  • If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent a payment, despite reasonable precautions we have taken.

  • There may be other exceptions stated in our Agreement with you.

25.8 Confidentiality Related to Electronic Fund Transfers. We will disclose information to third parties about the Electronic Fund Transfers you make through the Services:

  • Where it is necessary for completing the Electronic Fund Transfers; or,

  • In order to comply with government agency or court orders; or,

  • If you give us written permission; or,

  • As otherwise provided in our Privacy Policy.

25.9 Error Resolution

In case of errors or questions about your Electronic Fund Transfers, telephone us at +1 (323) 641-4224 or email us at [email protected]. If you think your Linked Account statement, receipt, or payment history within the Mobile App are wrong, or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement, receipt, or within the Mobile App, contact us as soon as you can. We must hear from you no later than 90 days after the statement or receipt was delivered to you. In your notification to us, you must:

  • Tell us your name and phone number associated with your Mobile App user account.

  • Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.

  • Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.

If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days.

We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your Linked Account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account.

For errors involving new Mobile App user accounts, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question.
