Autopay Terms
If Payer enters their payment information to be saved by Finli, Inc., Payer hereby authorizes autopayments. Autopayments are an automatic deduction for charges issued by an approved Invoicer from Payer bank or card account as listed in Payer online billing account.

By adding Payer payment information or approving an Invoicer, Payer authorize Finli to pull funds from the saved account whenever an invoice is due by this business. The frequency of the recurring charge may vary, depending upon the goods and services provided by Invoicer. Payer’s online account will always reflect the current amount due and retain payment history for up to 24 months.
Payer will be notified of payments that are made by emailed and/or text message payment confirmations. Payer will be provided an invoice with charges to be auto-paid at least five (5) days prior to any amount being auto-paid from Payer account. During that period, Payer will have the right to cancel the payment and may do so by reaching out to Finli at support@finli.com. In addition to receiving the invoice by email, Payer will receive a 2-day notice before the due date and a receipt of each payment. Each payment will show up on Payer credit/debit card or bank statement.

The Payer understands that this authorization will remain in effect until Payer has canceled it and that any cancellation or changes to Autopayments are the Payer’s responsibility.

Payments will be debited from Payer account on the due date or after. If the above noted due dates fall on a weekend or holiday, Payer understands that the payments may be executed on the next business day. For ACH debits to my checking/savings account, Payer understand that because these are electronic transactions, these funds may be withdrawn from my account as soon as the above noted transaction due dates. Payments may be made up to 30 days after the due date if a payment method is updated after the due date as an additional attempt due to an issue with the first payment such as an NSF, Credit Card Decline, or other delaying factor.

In the case of an ACH transaction being rejected for Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF) Payer understands that the we may at our discretion attempt to process the charge again within 30 days, and Payer agrees to an additional $35 charge for each attempt returned NSF which will be initiated as a separate transaction from the authorized recurring payment.

Payer acknowledges that the origination of ACH transactions to the Payer’s account must comply with the provisions of U.S. law. Payer certifies that they are an authorized user of this credit card/bank account and will not dispute these scheduled transactions with their bank or credit card company; so long as the transactions correspond to the terms indicated in these terms. We may revoke the Payer’s ability to pay via Finli at any time.

Paperless Terms
Payer is electing to receive an electronic record of their bill (Paperless Option) and upon selecting the Paperless Option, consents to the receipt of confirmation of Payer’s authorization and any notices required for any payment in electronic form. When Payer selects to receive an electronic record of their bill, Payer agrees to be automatically enrolled in and consent to paperless billing which can be set to text message or email. Payer may elect to receive paper statements directly from the Invoicer in which case Finli, Inc. does not hold responsibility for the accuracy of those statements.

These terms and conditions and any authorization for AutoPay and the Paperless Option shall remain in effect until consent is withdrawn or revoked by Payer (as provided in these Terms and Conditions), by Invoicer, by Finli Inc. or by the financial institution owning the bank account or the credit card issuer provided by the payer.
