Funds Transfer Disclosure are incorporated as part of this agreement.
3.2 USA PATRIOT Act Disclosure: Important Information About Procedures for Opening a New
Account
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal
law requires financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each
person who opens an account. What this means for you: when you open an account, we will ask
for your name, address, date of birth, SSN and other information that will allow us to identify you. We
may also ask for your driver's license, passport or other identifying information.
3.3 Military Annual Percentage Rate Disclosure
Federal law provides important protections to active duty members of the Armed Forces and
their dependents relating to extensions of consumer credit. In general, the cost of consumer credit
to a member of the Armed Forces and his or her dependent may not exceed an annual percentage
rate of 36 percent. This rate must include, as applicable to the credit transaction or account: The

3.4 Additional Disclosures
There are additional disclosures concerning your Card Account in other sections of this
Agreement, including the Reporting to Credit Reporting Agencies and Billing Rights sections.
3.5 State Disclosures
New Jersey Residents: Because certain provisions of this Agreement are subject to applicable
law, they may be void, unenforceable or inapplicable in some jurisdictions. None of these
provisions, however, is void, unenforceable or inapplicable in New Jersey.
Ohio Residents: The Ohio laws against discrimination require that all creditors make credit
equally available to all creditworthy customers, and that credit reporting agencies maintain
separate credit histories on each individual upon request. The Ohio Civil Rights Commission
administers compliance with this law.
Married Wisconsin Residents: If you are married, by submitting your Card application you are
confirming that this Card obligation is being incurred in the interest of your marriage and your
family. No provision of a marital property agreement, unilateral statement under Section 766.59
of the Wisconsin Statutes, or court order under Section 766.70 of the Wisconsin Statutes
adversely affects the interest of the creditor unless the creditor, prior to the time the credit is
granted, is furnished a copy of the agreement, statement or decree or has actual knowledge of the
adverse provision when the obligation to the creditor is incurred. If the Card for which you are
applying is granted, you will notify us if you have a spouse who needs to receive notification that
credit has been extended to you.
Section 4: Security Deposit
4.1 Purpose of Security Deposit
Your Card Account is secured by the Security Deposit that you are required to establish and
maintain in order to have the Card Account. A Security Deposit is required for us to issue you a
Card. We may in our sole discretion determine the minimum Security Deposit that is required for
us to issue you a Card. The Credit Limit we extend to you will equal the amount of your
Security Deposit. No interest will be paid on the Security Deposit. If you fail to make your
required payments on your Card Account or otherwise fail to comply with the terms of the
Cardholder Agreement, you could lose all Funds in your Security Deposit. You understand and
agree that you have established and will maintain the Security Deposit as security for the Card
Account.
4.2 Funding your Security Deposit
You may add funds to your Security Deposit at any time, subject to the restrictions stated herein,
and only for the purpose of securing your Card Account. Funding the Security Deposit for any
other purpose is not permitted. You may only add funds to the Security Deposit through the
methods we make available. Your ability to add funds to your Security Deposit may also be
subject to limitations from the financial institution that holds the account you intend to use as a
source for funding the Security Deposit.
If you cancel your Cleo Builder Subscription, you may not add funds to your Security Deposit
during your pending state of cancellation.
4.3 Your Pledge, Grant and Assignment of Security Interest
You acknowledge that granting us a security interest in the funds you provide for the Security
Deposit and the Security Deposit is a necessary condition to open your Account. You grant us a
security interest in the funds you provide for the Security Deposit, including all proceeds of and
additions to such funds and any portion of the funds in excess of the Credit Limit. You grant us
this security interest to secure payment of any and all of your obligations to us arising under or
relating to the Card Account, including any expenses that we incur in enforcing your obligations
under this Agreement, where permitted by applicable law (“Debt”). You agree to take any actions
needed for us to perfect or protect the first lien position of our security interest in the funds your
provide for the Security Deposit. You represent that there are no current lawsuits or bankruptcy
proceedings that might affect our interest in the funds you provide for the Security Deposit. You
have not and will not transfer or offer or attempt to transfer or offer any interest in the funds you
provide for the Security Deposit to any person other than us.
4.4 Maintaining a Security Deposit Balance
You understand and agree that maintaining a balance greater than $1 in your Security Deposit, or
any other amount that we determine is necessary in our sole discretion, is required to maintain
your Card Account. You must maintain funds in the Security Deposit sufficient to cover all
amounts you owe in connection with the Card Account and your desired Credit Limit.
You cannot use any portion of the Security Deposit to secure any other extension of credit and
must keep the Security Deposit free of any liens, security interests, or other encumbrances other
than the security interest that you grant to us.
4.5 Withdrawals from your Security Deposit
You cannot make withdrawals from the Security Deposit while those funds are being used to
secure your Debt to us except as we otherwise permit. If we permit you to withdraw funds from
the Security Deposit, we will return the funds to you within 45 days.
4.6 Applying Security Deposit funds to your Card Account
You may request that we apply the funds in your Security Deposit to the outstanding balance for
your Card Account, either through Carefree Credit Building or as a manual payment as discussed
below, and we will apply such funds to your outstanding balance. However, any removal of
funds from your Security Deposit, will lower your Credit Limit.
If you are in Default under this Agreement or your Card Account is closed for any reason, we
will apply your Security Deposit towards any outstanding Debt and we may do so without any
additional notice to you or any demand for payment from you. You will continue to be
responsible for repaying any outstanding Debt. If you are delinquent and add funds to your
Security Deposit in an amount that is greater than your outstanding Debt, we will immediately
apply such funds to your outstanding Debt and the remaining amount will be added to your
Security Deposit. Our rights under this Agreement are in addition to any others we have under
applicable law.
4.7 Your Security Deposit and Electronic Funds Transfers
For information about your electronic funds transfers in connection with your Security Deposit,
including your rights in the event of an error, see your Security Deposit Electronic Funds
Transfer Disclosure.
Section 5: Credit Limit
5.1 How your Credit Limit is Determined
Your Credit Limit is limited by the balance of your Security Deposit. Except as otherwise
provided herein, when you add funds to your Security Deposit, we will increase your Credit
Limit to the balance of your Security Deposit.
We may increase or decrease your total Credit Limit at our discretion.
Purchases, including any authorization hold, will decrease your Available Credit Limit
immediately when the Card is used at the merchant.
If you use your Card at a merchant where the pre-authorization amount may differ from the final
amount processed, for example gas stations and restaurants, we will attempt to prevent you from
exceeding your Credit Limit, which may result in a decline of your authorization.
Card cash advances via an ATM will decrease your Available Credit Limit immediately when the Card is used at the ATM. When
accessing cash at an ATM a limit of 90% of your Available Credit Limit is applied.
5.2 Understanding your Credit Limit
Your statement for your Card will show your Credit Limit and the amount of your Available
Credit Limit as of the closing date of your billing cycle. Your current Credit Limit and Available
Credit Limit can be found at any time using the Cleo app.
5.3 Respecting your Credit Limit
You promise not to engage in any transactions that will cause you to exceed your Credit Limit.
This means that your balance, including any transactions we have authorized but that have not
yet been processed, may not exceed your Credit Limit at any time.
If you attempt a transaction that would cause you to exceed your Credit Limit, we may in our
discretion authorize the transaction without increasing your Credit Limit or we may deny the
authorization. If we do allow you to exceed your Credit Limit at any time, that does not obligate
us to do so any other time. Without limiting our other rights under this Agreement, including our
rights under the “Our Rights Upon Default” section, you agree that if you exceed your Credit
Limit at any time you will immediately pay us for the full amount of the excess over the Credit
Limit, as applicable.
Section 6: Using your Card
6.1 Where and how you can use your Card
Subject to your Credit Limit, you may use your Card to make Purchases so long as you are not in
Default of this agreement. We, however, are not required to authorize or permit any Purchase
and may limit or suspend your ability to make a Purchase at any time in our sole discretion.
Subject to a limit of 90% of your Available Credit Limit, you may use your Card to access a cash advance at an ATM so long as you
are not in Default of this agreement. We, however, are not required to authorize or permit any attempt to access cash at an ATM
and may limit or suspend your ability to access cash at an ATM at any time in our sole discretion.
6.2 Authorizations
Transactions at some merchants (such as hotels, car rental companies, restaurants, and gas
stations) may result in temporary authorizations for amounts greater than the actual Purchase
amount. If this happens, it will make less credit available to you on your Card Account for
several days (usually until the date the actual Purchase amount is received by us from the
merchant).
6.3 Limitations on use of your Card
You agree to use your Card only for personal, family, or household purposes. You also confirm
that your Card will not be used for purposes that are illegal under federal or state law, including
without limit illegal gambling activity. We reserve the right to deny transactions or authorizations
from merchants that appear to be engaged in illegal activities. We are not responsible if anyone
does not allow you to use your Card or refuses to accept your Card. We may decline any
transaction at any time for any reason in our discretion.
If you give your Card to any other person to use or otherwise authorize any person to use your
Card, you will be responsible for that person’s use of your Card and anyone else they allow to
use your Card, even if you did not anticipate, or agree to, that use. You are responsible for such
transactions with your Card.
Section 7: Card Payments
7.1 Promise to Pay
You promise to pay us all amounts you owe on your Card Account, including without limitation,
the total amount of all Purchases and all other charges described in this Cardholder Agreement.
You must make a payment every month that your Card Account reflects a New Balance (the
“New Balance” is the entire amount that you owe us at that time). If you do not pay your New
Balance in full by the payment due date as reflected on your billing statement, it will be
considered late and you will be in Default. See “Our Rights Upon Default” in Section 8, below,
for consequences of Default.
7.2 How we Calculate your New Balance Due
This is a secured charge card, which means it must be paid in full every month. To calculate your
balance each month, the New Balance, we begin with the outstanding balance from the previous
month, and add purchases and transactions posted to your account associated with the Card. We
subtract any payments and credits that we receive. If there is still an outstanding balance after the
Payment Due Date, you agree that we may consider your Card Account to be in Default, and
funds from your Security Deposit may be applied to satisfy the outstanding balance.
7.3 When your Payment is Due
Payments must be made using the Cleo mobile application and must be made in full each month
by the applicable due date. Each month, you will be provided a periodic statement showing your
New Balance, Payment Due, and the Payment Due Date.
You may choose to make payments automatically using the funds in your Security Deposit,
which is called “Carefree Credit Building,” or to pay manually, either from an additional
payment method you have provided within the Cleo application or the funds in your Security
Deposit.
7.4. Carefree Credit Building
Carefree Credit Building is one of your payment options where each month, by your Payment
Due Date, we apply the funds in your Security Deposit to the New Balance on your Card. If you
enable Carefree Credit Building, funds from your Security Deposit will be applied to your New
Balance in full automatically on or before your payment due date. You will be notified of the
amount that will be automatically applied in the same communication notifying you that your
statement is available. When the amount from your Security Deposit is applied, your Available
Credit Limit will be reduced until you replenish your Security Deposit balance.
We will notify you before and after the Security Deposit is applied to your New Balance.
If you want to opt out of or into Carefree Credit Building, you may do so at any time by simply
visiting the “Spend Tab” within the Cleo mobile application, and use the “Manage,” feature.
7.5 Manual Payments
You may also pay your New Balance each month manually. You may make a manual payment
by requesting that we apply the funds in your Security Deposit to the New Balance, or by using
any other payment method we make available to you. If you choose to manually repay, you must
ensure we receive your payment in a timely manner.
7.6 Payment Timing
To ensure a timely payment, we must receive your payment by 5 p.m. Eastern Time on a
Business Day in order to be credited to your Card Account on that day. More details on how to
ensure we receive your payment in a timely manner are provided with your periodic statement.
Section 8: Our Rights on Default
8.1 Reasons for Default
You will be in “Default” under this Agreement if:
● You fail to pay any balance due by its due date;
● You exceed your Credit Limit;
● You fail to meet the conditions of, or to perform any obligation under this Agreement or
any other agreement relating to the Card or your Cleo Builder Subscription;
● You have given misleading information or made misrepresentations in connection with
your Card Account;
● Any government authority takes action against you that we believe adversely affects your
financial condition or ability to repay your Card; or
● You file a bankruptcy petition, a bankruptcy petition is filed against you, or you make a
general assignment for the benefit of creditors.
8.2 Our Rights Upon Your Default
If you are in Default, we may:
● Apply your Security Deposit to pay any and all amounts owed in connection with your
Card Account;
● Exercise any other right that we may have under our security interest in the Security
Deposit;
● Accelerate any amount that you owe such that it is immediately due;
● Suspend your Card Account and/or not authorize new transactions;
● Close your Card Account and/or cancel your Card; and/or
● Exercise any other right that we have under this Agreement or applicable law to enforce
our rights.
8.3: Cleo Builder Subscription
To maintain access to the Card Account, your Cleo Builder Subscription must remain in good
standing. If you fail to make any required subscription payments or otherwise are in default in
connection with your Cleo Builder Subscription, then you also are in breach of this Agreement.
If you have chosen to cancel your Cleo Builder Subscription, you will be able to spend up to
your approved Credit Limit until the end of your current subscription period. At the end of that
subscription period, your Card Account will be closed.
Section 9: Fees
a. Annual Fee. There is no annual fee on your Card Account.
b. Late Payment Fee. If payment of your New Balance in full is not received by your payment
due date, you will not be charged a late payment fee, however, it will be considered late and you
will be in Default. See “Our Rights Upon Default” for consequences of Default.
c. Foreign Transaction Fees. There is no fee for foreign transactions. However you will be
subject to VISA exchange rates. See “Foreign Transactions” below for more information.
d. ATM Card Cash Advance: $2.50. In addition, your ATM provider may charge their own fee.
f. Fees for Other Services. We may charge you other fees for services associated with your Card
Account that you request in accordance with applicable law.
Section 10: Reporting to Credit Reporting Agencies
10.1 What and When We Report
Each month, we may report your credit history, including your positive repayment and length of
tenure, to any of the three credit reporting agencies. Although timely payment of your Credit
Builder Card is one aspect required for credit score improvement and therefore use of the Credit
Builder Card may boost your credit score, impact to scores may vary and some cardholders’
scores may not improve. Therefore, we make no guarantee regarding the improvement of your
credit score.
10.2 When We Issue Negative Reports
YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT A NEGATIVE CREDIT REPORT REFLECTING
YOUR CREDIT HISTORY WITH US MAY BE SUBMITTED TO A CREDIT-REPORTING
AGENCY IF YOU FAIL TO FULFILL THE TERMS OF YOUR CREDIT OBLIGATIONS.
LATE PAYMENTS, MISSED PAYMENTS, OR OTHER DEFAULTS ON YOUR CARD
ACCOUNT MAY BE REFLECTED IN YOUR CREDIT REPORT.
10.3 Disputing Information Reported to Credit Reporting Agencies
If you believe that we have furnished any inaccurate information relating to your Card Account
to any consumer reporting agency, you may notify us at the following address: WebBank c/o Cleo AI Inc, 150 West 25th Street, RM 403, New York City, NY 10001. You may also email us at
cleobuilder@meetcleo.com. To help us respond to your notification, you must provide us
sufficient information to identify the account at issue (such as your Card Account number), the
information you are disputing, and the nature of the dispute. You may also include supporting
documentation. Depending on the nature of the dispute, we may request supporting
documentation from you. You also have the right to dispute information reported about you with
the applicable consumer reporting agency.
Section 11: Card Account Closure

process the notice.
You agree that we are not responsible for any costs, damages, or inconvenience you may suffer
as a result of our cancelling your Card Account.
11.2 Account Closure Does Not Affect Promise to Pay
Cancellation of the Card and the Card Account, whether by your or by us, does not relieve you
from your obligation to pay all amounts that you owe. You will remain responsible and must pay
for all credit owed to us (extended to you or arising from use of your Card Account prior to or
subsequent to cancellation) or any other Debt you owe us.
Section 12: Cards
12.1 Card Information
Any Cards that we issue to you belong to us. We, a merchant, or any party acting on our behalf,
may retain your Card without prior notice to you. You agree to sign your Card in the space
provided for authorized signatures before you use the Card. Your Card is issued with an
expiration date. We have the right to not renew your Card or Card Account. If we have not
terminated your Card Account or exercised our right not to renew your Card Account, we will
send you a new Card when your prior Card expires.
12.2 Flagging your Card is Lost or Stolen
If you realize that your Card has either been lost or stolen, you agree to contact us
immediately - either through the Cleo mobile application or by emailing
cleobuilder@meetcleo.com. You are able to add a temporary block to your card within the Cleo
mobile application to prevent further purchases on your card whilst you confirm the status of
your Card.
Section 13: Liability for Certain Unauthorised Card Transactions
Contact us IMMEDIATELY if you believe your Card has been lost or stolen, your credentials
have been compromised, or your Card Account has been accessed without your permission. You
will not be liable for any such unauthorized transactions made on your Card Account that occurs
after you notify us. You may, however, be liable for unauthorized use that occurs before your
notice to us. In any case, your liability will not exceed $50. You may not use the Card or any
other Cards in your possession with the same account number after you have notified us, even if
you get the Card back.
Section 14. Error Adjustments
If funds are transferred or credited to your Card Account or Security Deposit by mistake or
other error, we may correct the situation by deducting the amount of the erroneous transfer or
credit from your Card Account or Security Deposit without prior notice to you.
Section 15: Billing Rights
15.1 Billing Rights Overview
Each month while your Card Account is open, we will provide you a billing statement showing
your New Balance and the Payment Due Date. If you have consented to receive electronic
disclosures, we will provide the billing statement to you electronically by notifying you by email
that your billing statement is available. When you receive this email, you will need to login to
your Card Account in the Cleo Application to view and print your billing statement. We may
discontinue sending billing statements to you if we deem your Card Account to be uncollectible
or if we sent your Card Account to an attorney or other third party for collection purposes.
15.2 Billing Errors
YOUR BILLING RIGHTS: KEEP THIS DOCUMENT FOR FUTURE USE
This notice tells you about your rights and our responsibilities under the Fair Credit Billing Act.
What To Do If You Find A Mistake On Your Billing Statement:
If you think there is an error on your billing statement, write to us at:
WebBank c/o Cleo AI Inc, 150 West 25th Street, RM 403, New York City, NY 10001
Or
Cleobuilder@meetcleo.com
In your communication, give us the following information:
● Account information: Your name and Card Account number.
● Dollar amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error.
● Description of problem: If you think there is an error on your bill, describe what you
believe is wrong and why you believe it is a mistake.
You must contact us:
● Within 60 days after the error appeared on your billing statement.
● At least 3 business days before an automated payment is scheduled, if you want to stop
payment on the amount you think is wrong.
You must notify us of any potential errors in writing. You may call us, but if you do, we are not
required to investigate any potential errors and you may have to pay the amount in question.
What Will Happen After We Receive Your Communication:
When we receive your communication, we must do two things:
1. Within 30 days of receiving your communication, we must tell you that we received your
communication. We will also tell you if we have already corrected the error.
2. Within 90 days of receiving your communication, we must either correct the error or
explain to you why we believe the bill is correct.
While we investigate whether or not there has been an error:
● We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report you as delinquent on that
amount.
● The charge in question may remain on your billing statement.
● While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are responsible for the
remainder of your balance.
● We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit.
After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen:
● If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount in question or any other fees
related to that amount.
● If we do not believe there was a mistake: You will have to pay the amount in question.
We will send you a statement of the amount you owe and the date payment is due. We
may then report you as delinquent if you do not pay the amount we think you owe.
If you receive our explanation but still believe your bill is wrong, you must write to us within 10
days telling us that you still refuse to pay. If you do so, we cannot report you as delinquent
without also reporting that you are questioning your bill. We must tell you the name of anyone to
whom we reported you as delinquent, and we must let those organizations know when the matter
has been settled between us.
If we do not follow all of the rules above, you do not have to pay the first $50 of the amount you
question even if your bill is correct.
Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied With Your Card Purchases:
If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have purchased with your Card, and
you have tried in good faith to correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not
to pay the remaining amount due on the Purchase.
To use this right, all of the following must be true:
1. The Purchase must have been made in your home state or within 100 miles of your
current mailing address, and the Purchase price must have been more than $50. (Note:
Neither of these are necessary if your Purchase was based on an advertisement we mailed
to you, or if we own the company that sold you the goods or services.)
2. You must have used your Card for the Purchase.
3. You must not yet have fully paid for the Purchase.
If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied with the Purchase, contact us in
writing at:
WebBank c/o Cleo AI Inc, 150 West 25th Street, RM 403,
New York City, NY 10001
Or
Cleobuilder@meetcleo.com
While we investigate, the same rules apply to the disputed amount as discussed above. After we
finish our investigation, we will tell you our decision. At that point, if we think you owe an
amount and you do not pay, we may report you as delinquent.
Section 16: No Waiver of Rights
We may delay in enforcing our rights under this Agreement without losing those rights or any
other rights. We may waive enforcement of our rights in one or more instances without waiving
those rights or any other rights in other instances.
Section 17: Our Communications with You
You expressly authorize us (which includes, for purposes of this paragraph, our affiliates, agents,
and contractors) to monitor or record any calls between you and us. You also authorize us to
contact you to service your Card Account or to collect amounts you owe at any number (a) you
have provided to us (b) from which you called us, or (c) which we obtained and believe we can
reach you at (including wireless, landline and Voice Over Internet Protocol numbers). You agree
that we may contact you in any way, such as calling, texting, and may contact you using an
automated dialer or using artificial or pre-recorded messages. You understand that anyone with
access to your telephone may listen to or read the messages we leave or send you, and you agree
that we will have no liability for anyone accessing such messages. You further agree that we
may contact you on a mobile, wireless, or similar device, even if you are charged for it by your
provider of telecommunications, wireless and/or data services, and you agree that we will have
no liability for such charges. You also agree that we may contact you to service your Card
Account or to collect amounts you owe at any email address you have provided to us or that we
otherwise believe is associated with you. You agree that you are the owner and/or primary user
of any telephone number or email address you provide to us and that you will promptly notify us
if this is no longer true as to any such telephone number or email address.
Section 18: Assignments and Transfers
You may not transfer or assign any rights or obligations you have under this Agreement without
our prior written consent. Your obligations under this Cardholder Agreement shall be binding
upon your estate or personal representatives. We may assign this loan and any of our rights and
obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without your permission and without any
notice to you.
Section 19: Foreign Transactions
You may choose to use your Card to make a Purchase in a foreign country (a “Foreign
Transaction”). If your Foreign Transaction is in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the
transaction will be converted into a U.S. dollar amount by Visa International Inc., using the
procedures established by Visa International, Inc., based on the exchange rate in effect at the
time the transaction is processed. The exchange rate between the transaction currency and the
billing currency used for processing Foreign Transactions is a rate selected by Visa from the
range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date,
which may vary from the rate Visa itself receives, or a government-mandated rate in effect for
the applicable central processing date, in each instance. There is no Foreign Transaction Fee as
disclosed in the table at the top of this Agreement. We monitor your Card Account for signs of
potential fraud, which could include the use of your Card in a manner that is out of the ordinary.
If you are planning on using your Card in a foreign country (for example, if you are traveling
abroad) please let us know in advance. Otherwise it is possible that your Foreign Transactions
may be delayed or declined. There are some countries in which we are required by law to block
transactions and some countries for which we will not authorize the use of your Card Account
due to fraud, terrorism or other concerns. Those countries change from time to time, so contact
us in advance if you are planning on using your Card in a foreign country and want to confirm
that the Card can be accepted in that country.
Section 20: Disclosure of Information to Third Parties
By requesting, obtaining or using a Card from us you agree that we may release information in
our records regarding you and your Card Account: (a) to comply with government agency or
court orders; (b) to share your credit performance with credit reporting agencies (c) to share
information with our employees, agents or representatives performing work for us in connection
with your Card Account; (d) as otherwise permitted by our privacy policy, or (e) as otherwise
permitted by applicable law.
Section 21: Governing Law
This Agreement is entered into between you and us in the State of Utah and we extend credit to
you from Utah. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with federal
law, including the Federal Arbitration Act, and to the extent that state law applies, in accordance
with the laws of the State of Utah without giving effect to any principles that provide for the
application of the law of another jurisdiction.
Section 22: Arbitration Provision
The following arbitration provision (the “Arbitration Provision”) does not apply to you if you are
a covered borrower under the Military Lending Act. Please read this Arbitration Provision
carefully because you are waiving the right to have disputes heard by a judge and jury and you
waive the right to bring or participate in a class, representative or private attorney general action.
You may choose to have this Arbitration Provision not apply to this Agreement and your Card
Account by following the instructions below under “Opt-Out Right.” This paragraph describes
how all Claims (as defined below) will be arbitrated, at the election of you or us, on an individual
(non-class, non-representative) basis instead of litigated in court.
22.1 Definitions
The term “Claim” means any claim, dispute, or controversy between you and us arising from or
relating to your Card, your Card Account, or this Agreement, as well as any related or prior
agreement that you may have had with us or the relationships resulting from this Agreement. It
includes claims related to the validity, enforceability, coverage, or scope of this Arbitration
Provision to the maximum extent permitted by the FAA. Claims arising in the past, present, or
future, including Claims arising before the execution of this Agreement, are subject to
arbitration. Claim also includes, without limitation, claims that arise from or relate to any
application for the Card Account or any advertisements, promotions, or statements related to
your Card Account. For purposes of this arbitration provision, “you” and “us” also includes any
corporate affiliates, any licensees, predecessors, successors, assigns, any purchaser of any
accounts, Cleo, all agents, employees, directors and representatives of any of the foregoing, and
other persons referred to below in the definition of Claims. Claim also includes claims of every
kind and nature, including but not limited to initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims,
third-party claims, and claims based upon contract, tort, fraud, and other intentional torts,
statutes, regulations, common law, and equity. Claims and remedies sought as part of a class
action, private attorney general action, or other representative action are subject to arbitration on
an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis, and the arbitrator may award relief only on
an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. This includes injunctive relief, which the
arbitrator may award relief only on an individual, non-public basis, subject to subsection (e)
below. The term “Claim” is to be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced.
“Administrator” means the American Arbitration Association, 335 Madison Avenue, New York,
NY 10017, www.adr.org, (800) 778-7879; or JAMS, 1920 Main St., Suite 300, Irvine, CA
92614, www.jamsadr.com, (949) 224-1810.
22.2 Right to Elect Arbitration
We or you have the right to require that each Claim be resolved by arbitration on an individual
(non-class, non-representative) basis. A Claim will be arbitrated if (i) both we and you or (ii)
only one or the other of we or you, exercise the right to require that the Claim be arbitrated. If,
for example, we exercise our right to require that the Claim be resolved by arbitration, but you
do not also exercise your right to require that the Claim be arbitrated, the Claim will be resolved
by arbitration. If neither we nor you request arbitration, the Claim will not be resolved by
arbitration and instead will be litigated in court. We will not elect arbitration for any Claim you
file in small claims court, so long as the Claim is individual and pending only in that court. The
Administrator’s authority to resolve Claims is limited to Claims between you and us alone, and
the Administrator’s authority to make awards or decisions is limited to you and us alone.
Furthermore, Claims between you and us may not be joined or consolidated in arbitration with
Claims brought by or against someone other than you, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by
all parties. However, corporate affiliates are considered one person for the purposes of this
paragraph. No arbitration award will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any
dispute involving anyone who is not a party to the arbitration. This arbitration provision is made
pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and will be governed by the Federal
Arbitration Act (the “FAA”) (9 U.S.C. §1, et seq.).
22.3 No Jury Trial or Class Claims
If we or you request arbitration of a Claim, we and you will not have the right to litigate the
Claim in court. This means (i) there will be no jury trial on the Claim, (ii) there will be no
pre-arbitration discovery except as the Administrator’s rules permit, and (iii) no Claim may be
arbitrated on a class-action, private attorney general, or other representative basis, and neither we
nor you will have the right to participate as a representative or member of any class or group of
claimants pertaining to any Claim subject to arbitration. We or you may elect to arbitrate any
Claim at any time unless it has been filed in court and trial has begun or final judgment has been
entered.
22.4 Initiation of Arbitration
The party initiating an arbitration shall select an Administrator from the organizations listed
above. If none of the Administrators listed above will accept the arbitration, the arbitration will
be administered by an administrator, or adjudicated by an arbitrator, upon which you and we
agree in writing (and in such event, the defined term Administrator shall include such other
person). The arbitration shall be governed by the procedures and rules of the Administrator and
this Agreement, which need not apply federal, state or local rules of procedure and evidence.
The Administrator’s procedures and rules may limit the discovery available to you or us. You
can obtain a copy of an Administrator’s procedures and rules by contacting the Administrator. A
single, neutral arbitrator will resolve the Claims. The arbitrator will be either a lawyer with at
least ten years’ experience or a retired or former judge, selected in accordance with the rules of
the Administrator. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this arbitration
provision and the Administrator's rules or other provisions of this Agreement, this arbitration
provision will govern. The arbitrator will take reasonable steps to protect customer account
information and other confidential information if requested to do so by you or us. Arbitration
hearings for Claims by or against you will take place in the federal judicial district in which you
reside. If you make a request to us in writing, we will temporarily advance to you the filing,
administrative, and hearing fees for the arbitration of your Claim against us (but not if the Claim
is against you) in excess of any filing fee you would have been required to pay to file the Claim
in a state or federal court (whichever is less) in the judicial district in which you reside. At the
end of the arbitration, the arbitrator will decide if you have to repay the advance (and if you do
have to repay, you agree to do so). Unless applicable law requires otherwise, we will pay our,
and you will pay your, lawyers’, experts’, and witnesses’ fees. The arbitrator will apply
applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, will
honor claims of privilege recognized at law, and will have the power to award to a party any
damages or other relief provided for under applicable law. The arbitrator will make any award in
writing and, if requested by you or us, will provide a brief statement of the reasons for the award.
22.5 Public Injunctive Relief
To the extent allowed by applicable law, you also waive your right to seek a public injunction if
such a waiver is permitted by the FAA. However, this Arbitration Provision shall not be
construed to prevent you from seeking in the arbitration the remedy of public injunctive relief if
(a) you reside in California, (b) you resided in California at the time you entered into the
Agreement, or (c) your billing address for this Loan is a California address. If you meet one of
these conditions or if a court decides that such a public injunction waiver is not permitted, and
that decision is not reversed on appeal, all other Claims will be decided in arbitration under this
Arbitration Provision and your Claim for a public injunction then will be decided in court. In
such a case the parties will request that the court stay the Claim for a public injunction until the
arbitration award regarding individual relief has been entered in court. You agree that you will
request such a stay when required. In no event will a claim for public injunctive relief be
arbitrated.
22.6 Arbitration Award and Appeals
Judgment upon the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction. The
arbitrator’s decision regarding any claims will be final and binding, except for any appeal right
under FAA. The appealing party will pay the appeal costs. This Agreement to arbitrate shall
survive any suspension, termination, revocation of the Agreement or your Card Account, and any
bankruptcy to the extent consistent with applicable bankruptcy law.
22.7 Enforcement of this Arbitration Provision
If any part of this Arbitration Provision cannot be enforced, the rest of the arbitration provision
will continue to apply. However, an arbitrator cannot enlarge his or her authority over the
adjudication of Claims beyond that provided by this arbitration provision by enforcing only part
of this arbitration provision. If an arbitrator determines that applicable law requires this
Arbitration Provision to be enforced in a way that would result in greater authority over Claims
than otherwise allowed, such as the adjudication of claims on a class or representative basis or
other non-individual basis, then the arbitrator must decline to hear the dispute and shall refer the
parties to a court or other body with sufficient authority. In the event of any conflict or
inconsistency between this arbitration provision and the Administrator’s rules or other provisions
of this Agreement, this Arbitration Provision will govern.
22.8 Opt-Out Right
You may reject this Arbitration Provision by mailing a signed rejection notice to [WebBank c/o Cleo AI Inc, 150 West 25th Street, RM 403, New York City, NY 10001] within thirty (30) calendar days of
the date that you execute this Agreement. Your rejection notice must include the following
information: your name, physical address, e-mail and address, and telephone number, and a
statement that you are rejecting this Arbitration Provision.
Section 23: Force Majeure
Unless otherwise required by applicable law, we are not responsible and will not incur liability to
you for any failure, error, malfunction or any delay in carrying out obligations under this
Agreement if such failure, error or delay results from causes that are beyond our reasonable
control (including, but not limited to inclement weather, fire, flood, acts of war or terrorism, and
earthquakes).
Section 24: LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW WEBBANK AND
CLEO WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, TO YOU OR
ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, LIQUIDATED, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES,
INCLUDING DAMAGES UNDER WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, OR
ANY OTHER CLAIMS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE CARD
ACCOUNT, EVEN IF WE OR CLEO HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES THE CLEO PARTIES WILL ALSO NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY
USE OF INFORMATION, DATA, OR OTHER MATERIAL TRANSMITTED VIA THE CLEO
APPLICATIONS, CLEO WEBSITE, OR FOR ANY ERRORS, DEFECTS, INTERRUPTIONS,
DELETIONS, OR LOSSES RESULTING FROM, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFIT,
REVENUE, OR BUSINESS, ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART FROM THE CLEO
APPLICATIONS OR CLEO WEBSITE.
EACH PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS
INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS
OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS
SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS
AGREEMENT. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY
LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
Section 25: Change in Terms
Subject to the limitations of applicable law, we may at any time change, add to, or delete any of
the terms and conditions in this Agreement. We will give you notice of any change, addition, or
deletion as required by applicable law. Such changed terms will apply to new transactions and to
the outstanding balance of your Card Account as of the effective date, to the extent permitted by
applicable law.
Section 26. Severability
If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be void or unenforceable under any
applicable law, rule or regulation, all other provisions of this Agreement will remain enforceable.
Section 27. Entire Agreement
This Agreement, including all documents incorporated by reference, constitutes, and contains the
entire agreement between you and us with respect to the matters addressed in the Agreement and
supersedes any prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements.
