Terms and Conditions / Terms of Use

Effective Date: November 1, 2023

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY BEFORE USING OR ACCESSING THE SERVICES. BY ACCESSING THE SERVICES OR BY ENROLLING IN AND USING THE PROGRAM, YOU AS A USER ("YOU") HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND ACCEPT THESE TERMS OF USE WITHOUT MODIFICATION.

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of (1) our website located at paycepays.com and all of our other websites to which these Terms are posted; (2) our mobile applications to which these Terms are posted; and (3) any services, content, and features made available by us through the websites and mobile applications to which these Terms are posted (collectively, the “Services”).

The Services are owned and operated by Payce, LLC ("Payce", "we", or "us") in connection with the Payce® Program (the "Program").

The Program allows you to receive rewards in the form of cash back ("Rewards") deposited to your Payce account when you make a Qualified Purchase at a participating merchant, as further described below. A "Qualified Purchase" is a purchase from a participating merchant in accordance with the terms of the Offer and these Terms. An "Offer" is the cashback percentage or amount offered by the merchant, which may include, but is not limited to, a minimum transaction amount, expiration date, any other additional terms or limitations associated to the offer. The Program includes software, services, referral links, websites, features, content, browser extensions, shopping directories, tools, and mobile applications which we offer directly or through integration within third party services. The Program enables users of the Program and Services to earn Rewards for qualifying purchases from participating merchants. For purposes of this Agreement, “Rewards” means any incentive that you may earn through the Program, including cash-backs, discounts, digital coupons and other reward mechanisms.

  1. Registration, Membership & Termination of Accounts

    THE PROGRAM IS NOT AVAILABLE TO PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 OR TO ANY USERS SUSPENDED OR REMOVED FROM THE PROGRAM. BY USING THE PAYCE SERVICES, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE AND HAVE NOT PREVIOUSLY BEEN SUSPENDED OR REMOVED FROM THE PROGRAM.

    SUBJECT TO YOUR COMPLIANCE WITH THESE TERMS AND ALL APPLICABLE LAWS, Payce grants you permission to access and use the Program solely for your personal use, at the level for which you have registered, as set forth in these Terms and consistent with the intended features of the Program.

    In order to use the Program, you must have a Payce account in good standing. You agree that the information you provide to Payce on registration and at all other times, is true, accurate, current, and complete, and that you will keep this information accurate and up-to-date at all times and you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the payment card that you submitted.

    By registering for or interacting with the Program you represent that you have read and accepted the terms of the Privacy Policy.

    One Payce account is allowed per person.

    Payce is designed to serve members in the United States with Rewards in US dollars only. Members who are residents of other countries are welcome to use Payce; however, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws. Also be aware that some merchants may not honor offers for members outside the United States.

    We do not discriminate on the basis of age, race, national origin, gender, sexual orientation or religion.

    We reserve the right to refuse membership and further, in the event of fraudulent, abusive or other activity we determine to be unfair, we reserve the right to terminate your Payce account. In addition, please note we may terminate your account if we deem it dormant, as outlined in Section 5.

    As a condition of membership, you consent to receive servicing emails from Payce and to authenticate your email address. By registering for Payce, new members automatically opt in to receive emails from us outlining new offers and opportunities to earn cash back through the Program. You can opt out of these emails from within your Payce Profile.

    We reserve the right to terminate your account if you do not provide a serviceable email address or if you mark our emails as abusive, junk or spam.

    Special Notes for Visa, Mastercard and American Express Cardholders

    Not all Visa, Mastercard and American Express cards are eligible for registration and not all transactions with your linked Visa, Mastercard and American Express card are tracked by Visa, Mastercard and American Express. Without limitation, Visa, Mastercard and American Express Corporate cards, Visa, Mastercard and American Express Purchasing cards, non-reloadable prepaid cards, government-administered prepaid cards (including EBT cards), healthcare (including Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or insurance prepaid cards, Visa Buxx, and Visa-branded cards whose transactions are not processed through the Visa U.S.A payment system, Mastercard payment system and/or American Express payment system are not eligible to participate. If you register a debit card, your transaction must be processed as a 'credit' (i.e. signature) transaction to make sure the transaction can be monitored. Do not use a Personal Identification Number (PIN) when paying for your purchases with your enrolled card if you want the transaction to be eligible for Rewards or offer completion.

  2. Use of Enrolled Cards and Transaction Information

    By registering a payment card in connection with transaction monitoring, you authorize Payce to share your payment information with Payce's Third Party Service Providers (including ValueDynamx, Inc., for Visa and Mastercard cardholders) and Payment Card Network (e.g., Visa, Mastercard, American Express) so it knows you enrolled. You authorize Payment Card Network to monitor transactions on your linked card(s) to identify Qualifying Purchases in order to determine whether you have qualified for or earned an offer linked to your payment card, and for Payment Card Network to share such transaction details with ValueDynamx, as applicable, and for ValueDynamx to share such transaction details with Payce to enable your card-linked offer(s). If you have linked a credit or debit card in Payce, please review the Terms of Use to learn more about transaction monitoring, data collection, use, and sharing practices in connection with the program. You may opt-out of transaction monitoring on the payment card(s) you have linked by contacting us at payce@rewards.support. You agree that Payce and its Third-Party Service Providers may view your transactions, as well as historical transactions, made by you with participating merchants.

    "Third Party Service Providers" means third parties, including ValueDynamx, Inc. ("ValueDynamx") and Wildfire Systems, Inc., that enable us to provide the Program. We use our Third-Party Service Providers to help us operate Program. Your payment cards may only be enrolled in one program operated by Empyr. If you have already activated a payment card with a separate program operated by Empyr, you will be unable to activate that payment card in both the Program and the other program. You may use another payment card with the Program or deactivate your card with the other program.

    Payce and its Third-Party Service Providers will use transaction information solely as follows:

    1. To confirm a Qualifying Purchase or return to match transactions to confirm whether you qualify for an Offer.
    2. To confirm a specific transaction with a participating merchant; which may include a date and time stamp of a transaction, transaction amount, amount of reward earnings generated, discount or coupon codes used, a descriptor of item(s) in each transaction, last 4 digits of your card number and other characteristics of the transactions, so the merchant can verify your purchase with its records if there is a missing or disputed transaction.
    3. We may provide participating merchants and/or Third-Party Service Providers (third parties, including ValueDynamx, Inc. and Wildfire Systems, Inc. that enable us to provide the Payce® Program) aggregated and anonymized information relating specifically to each transaction you complete, including purchases and returns, solely to allow participating merchants and Third-Party Service Providers to assess the results of their campaign.
    4. Create a record of the transaction data and thereafter maintain and use data in connection with operating the Program.
    5. Conduct analysis for the improvement and optimization of Program.
    6. We may provide information in order to respond to a request from government authority or a payment organization involved in a transaction with you or a merchant.
    7. To transfer Payce Rewards balances to named beneficiaries.
    8. We may also use your information in the ways described in our Privacy Policy.

    You authorize the sharing, exchange and use of transaction data described above and herein by and among Payce's and Empyr's Third Party Service Providers, applicable Payment Card Networks and applicable Merchants.

  3. Rewards

    You will only receive Rewards from eligible online purchases through Payce when you shop through the links on the Payce website or mobile application or in Payce emails or embedded within browsers or other forms of digital communications and may redirect you or direct recipients, with whom you share the Link, to one or more Merchants..

    All cash-back offers shown on the website, logos, merchants and marketing materials are illustrative only and subject to change at any time without notice. For a full list of accurate and up-to-date cash-back offers, please sign in to your paycepays.com account and view the offer terms and conditions for each promotional offer. All company brand logos displayed on this website are owned and trademarked by their respective owners.

    Some transactions may not earn Rewards or may earn at a rate which is different from the rate indicated by the Service. You are not guaranteed to earn a Reward from a transaction even if you (i) create a Link (ii) share a Link (iii) take an action to activate cashback (iv) receive a notification from the service (v) receive an indication from the service that a transaction is eligible to earn (vi) you or your recipients complete a transaction or (vii) you receive from the Service a confirmation regarding a successful transaction. Even if the Services indicate that a transaction is eligible or confirmed, transactions may not earn Rewards for several reasons, without notice to you, including without limitation: i. Merchants may alter terms, conditions, or commission rates; ii. Merchants may discontinue their programs. iii. Merchants may exclude certain products from Reward eligibility. c. Merchants may have technical failures which result in transactions failing to be tracked or attributed to you. Links may fail to function properly. Link tracking may cease to function during transmission when you share it with others. Links may be altered or disabled by web browsers or ad blockers. Merchants may reject transactions due to suspected policy violations. The communication channel or browser through which the Link is activated or shared may modify or block the Link, alter the tracking code, or strip out the tracking code.

    Link Operations. a. You should not edit, remove or modify any element contained in a Link. Changing the Link may invalidate it or cause it to be inoperable. b. Certain communication platforms may block, alter or otherwise disable a Link, in which case the tracking and attribution may be inoperable, in which case no Reward shall be earned. c. Some Merchants may place cookies (or other forms of tracking beacons) on your device to recognize your device during a subsequent visit. This may enable the sender of the Link to earn a Reward for transactions which occur after the initial click on a Link. If you, or those clicking on your shared Link, block or delete cookies, tracking and attribution may be inoperable, in which case no Reward shall be earned. d. We reserve the right, without notice to you, to add or remove Merchants, change commission rates from Merchants, and determine to which Merchant we direct a Link.

    Some Rewards may include coupons, discounts or promotions from Merchants (“Offers”). We do not guarantee that merchants will honor Offers. Offer codes may be expired or invalid. Offers may not be eligible for your transaction, based upon exclusions, terms and conditions determined by Merchants.

    Any Reward amount which may be due to you is determined by us in our sole discretion. We reserve the right to adjust the proportion of a commission which we share with you at any frequency and at any time without notice to you and we may apply such rates for all pending and unpaid Rewards.

    When you activate cashback and complete a purchase of eligible products at participating Merchants (or if you share a Link to a recipient who completes an eligible transaction using the Link), this may generate a pending Reward, which is conditional until confirmed as described herein. Any information sent to you, such as a notification, email or account message or displayed within your dashboard regarding a pending Reward shall be conditional and shall not create a contractual obligation. We may alter or cancel a pending Reward for any reason including, but not limited to: charge-backs, product returns, or other accounting error, Merchant non-payment, non-bona fide transactions, non-receipt of payment from or refund of payment to the purchaser by the Merchant, our inability to contact you in order to validate transactions, your distribution of Links via Unapproved Channels, or your failure to comply with Third Party Merchant or Affiliate Network Terms and Conditions. Merchants may alter or cancel their program, Merchants may cease to be affiliated with the Services.

    You will only earn Rewards from eligible card-linked purchases by linking your credit or debit card through the Payce website or mobile application ("Linked Card") and using your Linked Card when you shop at a participating card-linked retailer.

    Your Linked Card will be charged the full purchase price at the time of purchase and Reward will not be included in your receipt from the merchant. You must comply with all Offer requirements and Program terms to receive the cash back.

    Terms and conditions regarding eligible cash back purchases vary by product and partner. In some instances, the aggregate dollar amount of cash back rewards available to all members may be limited or your individual cash back rewards on an offer may be subject to a cap. For full offer terms and conditions please refer to the details associated with each promotional offer. Cash back offers are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to modify the Cash Back reward rate at any time without notice to you.

    Your cash back from eligible online and card-linked purchases is based on your net purchase price, generally excluding taxes and shipping, handling, and special services.

    Your cash back will be adjusted to reflect returns to and cancellations with merchants when they are reported to Payce.

    In general, you will not earn cash back for:

    • any portion of your purchase paid for with coupons, store credit, online currency, or gift certificates.
    • purchases of products, services sold or promoted for resale or commercial use.
    • otherwise eligible purchases if you have also taken advantage of certain promotional offers not provided through Payce at the time of the purchase.

    Cash back earned is generally received from the participating merchant and posted to your Payce account 60-120 days after the purchase date.

    While we do our best to track and credit all eligible purchases, there are occasions when we are unable to do so. Therefore, please contact Payce if you believe:

    • An eligible online or card-linked purchase has not been noted to your account as pending within 30 days after you receive that purchase.
    • An eligible travel booking has not been noted to your account as pending within 60 days upon completion of that travel.

    Cash back earned on the purchases noted to your account is generally received from the participating merchant and posted to your Payce account 90-120 days after the purchase was originally noted as pending.

    Should a retailer delay payment of cash back or cease participation in the Payce program, we will make every reasonable effort to recover your cash back but we can make no guarantees of receipt.

    You may be taxed on your receipt of cash back earned by other individuals on your behalf, depending on the tax laws of federal, state, and local jurisdictions. You are solely responsible for any and all tax liability arising from the cash back received from other individuals.

    Earned cash back received from participating merchants is held in a non-interest-bearing bank account For the Benefit Of (FBO) you until paid to the account you register to pay. You can track all cash back earned, received, and paid on your behalf on your Payce Rewards view.

  4. Payments

    Cash back payments will be triggered automatically once a month to the payment account you have authorized the Payce Member money transmitter to pay on your behalf, if your Payce cash back balance is at least $10. If your Payce cash back balance is less than $10, that balance will be retained in your Payce account until your balance reaches $10.

    You must keep your payment account details accurate to avoid losing payments. Payments made to incorrect destinations may not be recoverable and may be subject to a recovery fee.

    If a payment account has not been linked or if the payment account information provided is not accurate, your cash back will be held in your Payce account until accurate payment account information is provided.

    Payments made from your Payce account do not alter any obligation or replace scheduled payments you may owe to a financial institution, service provider, or other creditor. You are responsible for meeting your financial obligations independent of any payments made from your Payce account. Payce is not responsible for any interest fees or other penalties that you may incur for a late payment or for failing to make a minimum payment.

    We are not liable for any delays, or consequences of delays, in payments.

    At any point we reserve the right to put payments on hold pending any investigation; this may be the case where unusual account activity is detected and verification is required in order to deem transactions as genuine.

  5. Dormant Accounts

    We reserve the right to terminate dormant accounts. In order to keep an account active, you must simply sign in to your Payce account or make a qualifying purchase through the Program at least once every six months.

  6. Escheatment

    Each state has its own escheatment law which requires companies to turn over the property of its residents that the state deems to be unclaimed or abandoned. If your Payce account has not had any activity for a certain period of time, generally three to five years, Payce may be required by law to remit your unclaimed cash back to the state of the most recent address in your Payce profile. If we remit unclaimed funds to your state of residence as required by law, you will need to contact the state directly to obtain the funds.

  7. Submissions

    You hereby grant to Payce the royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, distribute, perform, display, and/or create derivative works from all content, remarks, suggestions, feedback, ideas, graphics, or other information communicated to Payce through the Program ("Submission"), and to incorporate any Submission in other works in any form. Payce will not be required to treat any Submission as confidential, and may use any Submission without incurring any liability for royalties or other consideration of any kind, and will not incur any liability as a result of any similarities that may appear in future Payce operations.

  8. Security

    User names and/or passwords used for the Services are for individual use only. You are responsible for the security of your user name and/or password. Payce is entitled to monitor your password and, at its discretion, require you to change it.

    You agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information to Payce for use in any program or service in which you participate through the Services. If Payce has reasonable grounds to suspect that information you provide is false, inaccurate, out of date, or incomplete, Payce may suspend or terminate your access to the Services and the Program, and may refuse any and all current or future use of the Program.

    You are prohibited from using any services or facilities provided in connection with the Services to compromise security or tamper with system resources and/or accounts. The use or distribution of tools designed for compromising security (e.g., password guessing programs, cracking tools or network probing tools) is strictly prohibited. If you become involved in any violation of system security, Payce reserves the right to release your details to system administrators at other websites in order to assist them in resolving security incidents. Payce reserves the right to investigate suspected violations of these Terms of Use.

    The Services contain secured components that are accessible only to those who have registered and have been granted a user name and password by Payce. Information contained within the secure components of the Services is confidential and proprietary.

  9. Modification of Agreement

    We may change, modify, add, or remove any of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, at any time and at our sole discretion for any reason. We will post the revised agreement on the website and the mobile application and indicate the date of the latest revision. We encourage users to review the Terms periodically for changes. In the event that the modifications materially alter your rights or obligations hereunder we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of the change. For example, we may send a message to your email address, if we have one on file, or generate a pop-up or similar notification when you access the Payce website or mobile application for the first time after such material changes are made, except that (i) disputes between you and Payce will be governed by the version of the Terms that was in effect on the date the dispute arose and (ii) if you do not agree with any changes to the Terms, you may terminate these Terms by ceasing use of the Program. The new terms will come into effect no later than 30 days after the modification. Your continued use of the Program after revised Terms have become effective indicates that you have read, understood and agreed to the current version of the Terms.

    You agree to give up any rights to litigate claims in a court or before a jury. Other rights that you would have if you went to court may also be unavailable or may be limited in arbitration.

    Any claim, dispute or controversy (whether in contract, tort or otherwise, whether pre-existing, present or future, and including statutory, consumer protection, common law, intentional tort, injunctive and equitable claims) between you and us arising from or relating in any way to your purchase of products or services through the Services, will be resolved exclusively and finally by binding arbitration.

    The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect. The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.

    The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the agreement is void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or equity. Any reward of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

    You may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide us with written notice of your intention to do so within 60 days of your purchase date. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.

    If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
