Unless Higo or Bank Partner have acted in bad faith, Higo or Bank Partner will not be liable for any special or consequential damages, including loss of profits or opportunity, or for attorneys’ fees incurred by you. You agree that you will not waive any rights you have to recover your loss against anyone who is obligated to repay, insure, or otherwise reimburse you for your loss. You will pursue your rights or, at Higo’s or Bank Partner’s option, assign them to us so that we may pursue them. Higo’s or Bank Partner’s liability will be reduced by the amount you recover or are entitled to recover from these other sources. Concerning each item you deposit with Bank Partner through Higo, or which Bank Partner cashes for you or give other consideration, you make the following warranties to us whether Bank Partner is the payor bank or depository bank: all necessary signatures and endorsements have been placed on the time and are genuine, the item has not been materially altered and you have good title to it, and no defense of any party to the item is good against you. If any such warranty is breached, Bank Partner may deduct the amount of the item from any of your accounts or otherwise collect from you this amount plus expenses.

11.8 Errors and Disputes. If you think your statement is wrong or if you need more information about a transaction listed on it, please contact us by email at [email protected] or calling us or sending us a WhatsApp message at +1 (323) 580 2144. You must report any errors within sixty (60) days from the earlier of (i) the date the statement was made available to you on the Platform or (ii) the date you access your Account and would have been able to see the error. You must provide the appropriate information for Higo to investigate the error or unauthorized transaction with Bank Partner, including at least the date of the transaction and its amount. If you call Higo, we may request that you send your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days.

11.8.1 We will determine whether an error occurred within ten (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 forty-five (45) days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to use this additional time, we will credit your Account for the amount you think is in error within ten (10) business days, so that you will have use of the money during the time it takes to complete the investigation.

11.8.2 If your Account was opened less than thirty (30) days before the date of the suspected error, we may extend the ten (10) business day period to twenty (20) business days before crediting your Account.

11.8.3 If your Account was opened less than thirty (30) days before the date of the suspected error, the error resulted from a point-of-sale debit card transaction or was initiated in a foreign country, we may extend the ten (10) business day period to ninety (90) days before crediting your Account.

11.8.4 If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and you do not provide it within ten (10) business days, we will not credit your Account.

11.8.5 You will be informed of the result of the investigation within three (3) business days after Bank Partner’s completion of the investigation. If we determine that there was no error, we will send you an explanation by email or by making it available via the Platform. Copies of the investigation documentation can be obtained by contacting Higo at [email protected].

11.9 Bank Partner Liability for Failure to Complete Transactions. If Bank Partner does not complete a transaction from your Account on time or in the correct amount, Bank Partner will be liable for your losses or damages. However, Bank Partner is not liable for any failed transaction if you do not have enough money in your balance to cover a transaction, if the ATM or device does not have enough cash or is not working properly, if circumstances beyond Bank Partner’s control prevent the transaction, if the merchant requests authorization for an amount greater than the purchase amount, if access to your Account or linked account has been blocked after you reported your Account number or linked account number lost or stolen, if there is a hold or your funds are subject to legal or administrative process or other encumbrance restricting their use, if Bank Partner has reason to believe the requested transaction is unauthorized, if Bank Partner has received incomplete or inaccurate information from the third-party payor or payee or if there are other exceptions stated in this agreement or as provided by law. Bank Partner are not liable for the failure to complete a transaction on a business account if Bank Partner, through Higo, sends you notice that the transaction was not completed.



12. PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS

12.1 You will not use the Services for any illegal, fraudulent or other prohibited activity. These activities will be defined and updated in the Platform at Higo’s sole discretion.

Additionally, depending on the severity of the violations, we may contact law enforcement.



13. CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT

13.1 You may close your Account at any time by contacting us. The rules and procedures regarding the closure of an Account can be accessed through the Platform.

13.2 Both Higo and/or Bank Partner may, in their sole discretion and without any cost or liability to you, with or without prior notice and at any time, suspend, modify, or terminate, temporarily or permanently, all or any portion of the Services, establish certain transaction limits or trading limits, or terminate your Account, with or without reason.



14. GENERAL RULES GOVERNING THE ACCOUNT

14.1 Assignment; Transfer; Non-Waiver. The Account may not be assigned. Higo and/or Bank Partner may transfer their rights under these Terms of Service. If you or Higo and/or Bank Partner excuse each other from complying with any part of these Terms of Service, this will not waive compliance by the excused party on any other occasion, notwithstanding the number of previous excusals or their duration. A party may not rely justifiably upon another’s past forbearance to vary present or future rights, obligations or performance under these Terms of Service. If any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, that provision shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of these Terms of Service.

14.2 Legal Processes Affecting Accounts. If Higo and/or Bank Partner are served with a subpoena, government agency request for information, restraining order, writ of attachment or execution, levy, garnishment, search warrant, forfeiture or similar order or legal process relating to your Account (termed “legal action” in this section), regardless of the jurisdiction of the issuing authority, Higo and/or Bank Partner may rely on the representations made in the legal action and comply with the legal action, regardless of the jurisdiction of the issuing authority or the location of the Bank Partner at which the legal action is received. In these cases, Higo and/or Bank Partner will not have any liability to you if there are insufficient funds to pay your items because Bank Partner has withdrawn funds from your Account or in any way restricted access to your funds in accordance with the legal action. If you believe your funds are exempt from legal action, or otherwise should not be subject to legal action (for example, if you own funds and the legal action applies to another joint owner, you believe the court, garnishor, or levying authority lacks jurisdiction over you or the property, or you believe the garnishment or levy names the wrong party as garnishee), you agree that it is your responsibility to raise any defense to the legal action against the party who originated the legal action, and you agree that we have no obligation to do so. Any fees or expenses Higo and/or Bank Partner incur in responding to any legal action (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and our internal expenses) may be charged against your Account. Unless expressly prohibited by law, Bank Partner will charge your account a fee for each legal action received, regardless of whether the action is subsequently revoked, vacated or released.

14.3 Abandoned or Inactive Accounts. Some states in the United States have unclaimed property laws that govern when accounts are considered abandoned. In this case, your account is usually considered abandoned if you have not made a deposit or withdrawal, or signed into your Account, for a specified period of time. In jurisdictions with unclaimed property laws, Higo and/or Bank Partner are required by the unclaimed property laws to turn over accounts considered abandoned to the applicable state. Before we turn over an abandoned account, Higo may send a notice to you by e-mail or the address on the account statement. Unless prohibited by law, Higo and/or Bank Partner may charge to your Account costs and expenses of any notice, payment and turnover of the remaining balance of your Account to the applicable state. State law of where the Bank Partner is located will apply on unclaimed or abandoned property related to this Account.

14.4 Standard of Care; Limitation of Liability. Bank Partner and/or Higo’s liability for losses you incur in connection with your Account or the services set forth herein is limited to actual damages proved that are proximately caused by Bank Partner’s and/or Higo’s, as applicable, failure to exercise ordinary care. Nevertheless, if Bank Partner makes an error in your favor by excessively crediting or insufficiently debiting your account for any reason, including, without limitation, to the giving of cash or credit in excess of a corresponding account debit, you agree that you immediately owe Bank Partner the amount in error, whether you relied on the error or not. You agree to waive your rights to a jury and to punitive and exemplary damages and further agree to be subject to all parts of the arbitration provision in Section 15.11. Damages for any breach of these Terms of Service are limited to those that are direct and lie in contract, and will exclude indirect and consequential damages. Also excluded are damages in tort, including but not limited to those for emotional distress, unless caused by a willful and malicious act, which in the case of the unauthorized disclosure of private or confidential information must also be defamatory. In return Higo and/or Bank Partner also waive their same rights in any such action, cross-action or claims in arbitration they may file against you. Higo and/or Bank Partner will have no liability for acting on instructions from you accepted or interpreted by Higo and/or Bank Partner in good faith according to the terms of these Terms of Service, declining to act on instructions whose authenticity or accuracy cannot be verified to Higo’s and/or Bank Partner’s satisfaction, or not acting on instructions not actually received.

14.4.1 Except as required by applicable law, we will have no liability to you if we are unable to complete a transaction for any reason beyond Higo’s and/or Bank Partner’s control. Except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms of Service or as otherwise required by applicable law, Higo and/or Bank Partner, any affiliates, and the parties with whom Higo and/or Bank Partner and any affiliates contract in order to offer your Account and related services are neither responsible nor liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or relating in any way to your Account, any products or services purchased using the Account, or these Terms of Service (as well as any related or prior agreement you may have had with Higo and/or Bank Partner).
