The acquisition of all such information shall be in strict compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FRCA”) and Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”).
By signing this Agreement, the principal(s) of the applying entity and as an authorized officer of such, hereby authorizes Processor to conduct the credit and background inquiries for the above stated purposes.

Settlements include Offset debit entries as a prefunding requirement to transmit credit entries submitted by Merchant; Fee Settlement to debit Merchant for Fees and Charges as agreed; File Settlements to debit or credit the Merchant for entries that Merchant previously submitted to the PayToo ECHECK/ACH Processing Platform for transmission through the ECHECK/ACH System; Late Return Settlements for settling returned transactions, which were returned after a File Settlement was originated and transmitted to the Merchant’s designated account.  PayToo will notify Merchant by electronic mail (‘email”) when debit or credit entries for Settlement purposes are originated.  Merchant also understands that they are responsible for notifying their bank of this authorization in order to avoid returned transactions due to the bank filters or any other such services that the Merchant has with their bank that would result in a dishonored transaction.
Upon acceptance of this Application/Agreement, PayToo will immediately initiate a debit entry to the above account for the Application and Setup fees.
