1. FEES

As consideration for the Service purchased by You and provided to You by Hostsprite, You agree to pay Hostsprite a monthly or annual fee, depending on which payment plan You signed up for when You purchased the Service. If You signed up for a monthly payment plan, Your monthly billing date will be determined based on the day of the month You establish Your Online Store/Quick Shopping Cart account with Hostsprite unless that date falls after the 28th of the month in which case Your billing date will be the 28th of each month. If You signed up for an annual payment plan, and You elected the automatic renewal option, Hostsprite will automatically renew Your service when it comes up for renewal and will take payment from the Payment Method You have on file with Hostsprite, at Hostsprite’s then current rates. Payment is to be made by You providing either a valid credit card, an online check, or using “Good as Gold” to establish a cash reserve for charge by Hostsprite (collectively, the “Payment Method”). Personal checks and money orders may only be used only to fund “Good As Gold” (GAG) accounts, must be for payments of $100.00 or more, and issued in U.S. dollars for the full amount required at that time. All money orders will be delayed ten (10) days until the money is credited, which may delay Your usage of the product or service, and any money order that does not clear will result in a $25.00 processing fee. Personal checks under $1,000.00 are subject to the same processing fees as wire transfers. All personal checks will be delayed fourteen (14) days until the money is credited, which may delay Your usage of the product or service, and any check that bounces will result in a $25.00 bounced check fee. If You purchase an automatically renewing service or product by personal check, it is Your responsibility to make payment arrangements for each renewal payment. Payments are non-refundable. If for any reason Hostsprite is unable to charge Your Payment Method with the full amount of the Service provided, or if Hostsprite is charged a penalty for any fee it previously charged to Your Payment Method, You agree that Hostsprite may pursue all available remedies in order to obtain payment. In the event that You exceed the scope of the Service as set forth in Your Agreement, You shall pay Hostsprite for such additional service not within the scope of Your Agreement as specified. Hostsprite reserves the right to charge a reasonable service fee for administrative tasks outside the scope of its regular services. These include, but are not limited to, customer service issues that cannot be handled over email but require personal service, and disputes that require legal services. These charges will be billed to the Payment Method we have on file for You. You may change Your Payment Method at any time by logging into Your Account Management page.
