Users acknowledge and accept that the Company bears no obligation to provide advance notice regarding such modifications, and that continued utilization of the Services post-update constitutes implicit consent to the Terms.

4. FEES AND TARIFF PLANS

4.1. Tariff Plans. The Company may offer its Services under both free and paid Tariff Plans. Certain Services may be exclusively available to Users under paid Tariff Plans. Users can familiarize themselves with the current Tariff Plans offered on the Site, along with their features and limitations, by referring to the following link: https://me-qr.com/pricing. The Company retains the right to periodically review and modify the terms of individual Tariff Plans, as well as to add or remove Tariff Plans at its discretion. If Users intends to change their Tariff Plan, they must register an Account beforehand.

Users are encouraged to regularly review the Tariff Plans to stay informed about any changes or updates that may impact their utilization of the Services. The Company reserves the right to adjust Tariff Plan terms in response to evolving business needs, market conditions, or regulatory requirements. Any modifications to Tariff Plans will be communicated to Users in accordance with the terms outlined in these Terms.

4.2. Subscription period. Services under paid Tariff Plans are provided on a Subscription basis. A Subscription entails an agreement between the User and the Financial Agent, responsible for facilitating transactions, wherein the User authorizes to charge a recurring fee at the prevailing Subscription rate for the selected Tariff Plan.

The cost of paid Tariff Plans will be charged at the rate specified at the time of initial purchase on a recurring basis corresponding to the Subscription term, until canceled by the User. By purchasing a specific Tariff Plan and providing payment information to the Company or its designated Financial Agent, the User consents to the periodic fee being charged at the current Subscription rate.

The Subscription terms and rates for each available Tariff Plan are subject to change, and Users agree to pay the applicable Subscription rate unless they cancel their Subscription as described in the section 4.6 hereof.

The duration of a relevant Subscription to a Tariff Plan, depending on the period chosen by the User, may be either 1 (one) month or 1 (one) year. Following the conclusion of each Subscription period, the paid Subscription for the relevant Tariff Plan will automatically renew for the designated duration, as initially selected by the User during the purchase process (either 1 (one) month or 1 (one) year). Users expressly acknowledge and agree that failure to cancel the Subscription within the stipulated timeframe authorizes the automatic renewal of the Subscription for the selected period, and charges associated with renewal will be applied.

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE COMPANY MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES CORRESPONDING TO THE TERM OF YOUR SELECTED SUBSCRIPTION WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU AFFIRMATIVELY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES OR NOTIFY THE COMPANY THAT YOU WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD INFORMATION.

4.3. Payment terms. The Company utilizes the services of a Financial Agent to facilitate payment authentication when purchasing a Subscription to a relevant Tariff Plan. The procedural guidelines governing payment through the Financial Agent's electronic payment system are subject to the rules established by the Financial Agent. Users are advised to review the terms and conditions as well as the privacy policies of the applicable Financial Agent to understand their terms of service.

Prior to purchasing a Tariff Plan Subscription, the Visitor must undergo the Account registration procedure. Having a registered Account is a mandatory condition for purchasing a Tariff Plan.

To acquire a Subscription to a relevant Tariff Plan, Users may utilize permitted payment methods offered by the Financial Agent. This includes payment via credit / debit card by providing the necessary requested details, or selecting other available payment methods on the Financial Agent's website that are accepted by the applicable Financial Agent.

By initiating the purchase process, Users confirm their understanding and acceptance of the responsibilities associated with payment authorization, and agree to adhere to the specified terms and conditions. Users explicitly assert and warrant that their use of a debit / credit card or other payment method is duly authorized. Furthermore, Users affirm that all submitted information is accurate and true. Users agree to bear the responsibility for paying all fees incurred during the purchase transaction, including but not limited to bank commissions and/or commissions charged by the Financial Agent.

In the event of a User's request, the Company reserves the right to consider accepting payment from the User through another payment system or provider. If the User's request is approved, such payment will be deemed a valid basis for granting the User access to the selected Tariff Plan. However, the Company reserves the right to refuse the User and not accept payment through any other means than via the Financial Agent.

We are NOT a party to any transaction You may enter with the Financial Agent. If You have any questions, concerns, or claims in certain transactions, please address these to the relevant Financial Agent.

Access to the paid Tariff Plan is granted to the User upon successful payment of the full cost of the selected Tariff Plan. However, the User acknowledges and agrees that the processing time of the payment by the Financial Agent and the crediting of funds to the Company's account may require additional time. This processing time may vary depending on factors such as the chosen payment method, banking procedures, and potential delays in financial transactions.

In light of this, the Company reserves the right to suspend the User's Subscription to the Tariff Plan if the funds are not credited to the Company's account within 10 (ten) days following the User's transfer. During this suspension period, the User may experience temporary limitations on access to certain features or Services associated with the paid Tariff Plan.

Once the payment is successfully credited to the Company's account, the Subscription to the Tariff Plan will be reinstated, and the User will regain full access to the associated features and Services. The Company may also consider extending the Subscription period to compensate for any lost time during the suspension period, at its discretion and as deemed appropriate.

If the payment is not credited to the Company's account, access to the paid Tariff Plan will not be reinstated until a successful payment transaction is completed and funds are credited to the Company's account.

In case of a transaction error, where funds fail to be credited to the Company's account, the User may be required to initiate a new payment transaction to regain access to the paid Tariff Plan Services. It is the User's responsibility to ensure that the necessary payments are made promptly to avoid any interruptions in Service.

4.4. Pricing. The payment amount for the Subscription is determined by the selected Tariff Plan chosen by the User. Your purchase price may comprise the cost of the Tariff Plan plus fees charged by financial institutions, payment service providers, Financial Agent, and any applicable taxes as per the prevailing rates at the time of purchase, based on the country data provided during the payment processing phase. The final cost of the Tariff Plan is contingent upon the chosen payment method and will be presented to You after selecting a payment method, as indicated in the User sales receipt.

The Company may offer and display the prices of Tariff Plans in various currencies on the Site. All transactions will be conducted in the currency specified on the Site or associated payment platform of the Financial Agent. Users bear responsibility for any currency conversion fees or charges that may be imposed by their financial institutions and/or Financial Agent. In the case of international transactions, currency exchange rates may impact the final cost of the Subscription to the Tariff Plan. Users are encouraged to familiarize themselves with any associated currency conversion fees that may apply.

If the currency conversion takes place, You agree that it will be completed at the transaction exchange rate set for by the Financial Agent or the relevant currency exchange. The transaction exchange rate is adjusted regularly and includes a currency conversion spread applied and retained by the Financial Agent on the base exchange rate to form the rate applicable to Your conversion.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company reserves the right to alter the price of the Tariff Plans at any given time. Notice of these changes will be disseminated by posting the updated information within the Site.

Alterations in Tariff Plans prices do not impact the paid Subscription period. Users who have paid for a specific duration will not be subject to the revised pricing until the commencement of a new Subscription period.

In the event that the User disagrees with the new prices introduced for the Tariff Plans, the User is required to cancel the relevant Subscription in accordance with the section 4.6 hereof.

4.5. Taxes. Fees are exclusive of taxes, duties, levies, tariffs, and other governmental charges (collectively, “Taxes”), and You are responsible for all Taxes resulting from these Terms or Your use of the Services.

Payment for the relevant Subscription and any other charges You may incur, Taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged by the relevant Financial Agent. Local taxes and other fees may vary depending on the location of the User and the payment method chosen. You hereby confirm that the Company and the relevant Financial Agent can rely on the name and address that You provide to the Financial Agent when You agree to the fees or in connection with Your payment method as being the place of supply for sales tax and income tax purposes or as being the place of supply for VAT purposes where You have permanent residence / have established Your business.

In the event You are required by law to deduct and withhold any Taxes on amounts payable under these Terms, any amounts required to be withheld will be promptly deducted and timely remitted by You on behalf of the Company to the appropriate taxation authority, and You agree that You will provide the Company with copies of all necessary documents (including, but not limited to tax receipts received from the applicable tax authority). If You are required to withhold any tax for payments due, You shall gross up Your payments to the Company so that the Company receives the amount due in full, free of any deductions.

The Company is not obligated to issue tax invoices or similar documentation related to taxes. Any tax-related documentation required for accounting or compliance purposes is the sole responsibility of the User. However, if required, Users may request a tax invoice from the relevant Financial Agent directly. Users are advised to consult with their tax advisors or relevant authorities regarding the collection, reporting, and remittance of any taxes associated with the Services. The Company shall not be liable for any damages, losses, or penalties incurred by the User as a result of their failure to comply with tax laws or regulations.

4.6. Subscription cancellation. To avoid automatic renewal and subsequent charges, and in the event the User desires to discontinue the utilization of the Services under the relevant paid Tariff Plan and terminate the Subscription to it, the User must initiate the cancellation of the Subscription through the Account prior to the expiration of the pertinent Subscription period.

In the event that the User decides to cancel the Subscription, this action signifies the discontinuation of automatic renewal. However, the User will retain access to the Services under the relevant Tariff Plan for the remaining duration until the conclusion of the paid subscription period. Consequently, the Company is not obligated to refund the difference in the Subscription cost that remains after its cancellation; it shall be deemed that the Services will continue to be provided until the expiration of the paid Subscription period.

In the event that, for any reason, the recurrent payment for the applicable Tariff Plan is not processed as scheduled, the provision of Services with extended access to the Services under the paid Tariff Plan will be automatically terminated.

In the event that the Subscription is canceled, regardless of the reason, the User will be granted access to the Services under the terms of the free Tariff Plan.

The User acknowledges and agrees that upon cancellation of the Subscription to a Tariff Plan, the User forfeits the opportunity to reinstate the Subscription at the price that was effective at the time of cancellation if it has been subsequently altered. This means that if the Tariff Plan pricing has been revised after the cancellation, the User will be required to purchase the Tariff Plan at the new price, which may differ from the price in effect at the time of cancellation.

4.7. Change of Subscription. The User has the right to request a change of the selected Tariff Plan to a different one.

When switching to a paid Tariff Plan, the User is obliged to pay the full price of the relevant Tariff Plan specified on the Site. In case of switching to a free of charge Tariff Plan, the funds paid by the User are non-refundable, and the paid Tariff plan remains in force until the conclusion of the initially purchased term.

In the event of switching from a lower-priced Tariff Plan to a higher one, the User is only required to pay the price difference between the two Tariff plans. However, the calculation of this difference takes into account the remaining duration of the previous Subscription period.

Conversely, when transitioning from a higher-priced Tariff Plan to a lower one, the User shall pay the full cost of the lower-priced Tariff Plan. However, the activation of the lower-priced Tariff Plan begins after the expiration of the higher-priced Tariff plan, which is already active. It is important to note that the Company does not provide refunds or credits for the price difference between the higher-priced Tariff Plan and the lower-priced one. Once the transition is made, the User will continue to have access to the Services under the new Tariff Plan's terms and conditions.

The User's transition to the newly selected Tariff Plan shall result in the termination of the previous Tariff Plan, except as provided above. The User cannot use the Services on the terms of several different Tariff Plans at the same time.

5. REFUND POLICY

The Company operates under a no-refund policy for all Subscription payments. Once a Tariff Plan is purchased and payment is made, all transactions are deemed final and non-refundable. This policy applies regardless of circumstances, except where explicitly stated otherwise in these Terms or as required by applicable law.

By agreeing to these Terms, the User acknowledges and accepts that the purchase of a Tariff Plan constitutes a binding commitment that cannot be refunded under any circumstances.

In addition, Users should be aware that in certain cases, refund requests may need to be directed to the Financial Agent through which the payment was processed. The decision regarding refunds will ultimately be at the discretion of the Financial Agent, and the Company may not have direct control over the outcome of such requests.

Users who wish to pursue a refund through the Financial Agent should follow the prescribed procedures outlined by the Financial Agent's policies and guidelines. It is important to note that the Financial Agent may have its own terms and conditions regarding refunds, which Users must adhere to when seeking reimbursement.

In the event of a dispute initiation regarding a refund, the User's access to the paid Tariff Plan will be suspended during the dispute resolution process. Consequently, the use of previously created QR codes and the creation of new ones will be subject to the conditions and limitations applicable to the free Tariff Plan.

If a positive decision is reached by the Financial Agent in favor of the User regarding reimbursement, the corresponding Tariff Plan will be canceled. The User acknowledges and agrees that the refund amount may not cover the full cost of the Tariff Plan originally paid by the User, as it may be subject to deductions for fees and expenses incurred by the Financial Agent.

If the User's request for reimbursement is not satisfied, the Tariff Plan will be restored, and its validity will continue for the duration of the paid period. The Subscription period for the Tariff Plan will be extended for the period during which the Financial Agent resolved the dispute and the Tariff Plan was suspended.

6. REFER & EARN

6.1. Referral program eligibility. Participation in the Refer & Earn program (the “Program”) is open to all registered Users of the Site who meet all the following criteria:

The reward is calculated based on the actual amount paid by the referred User for the Tariff Plan, excluding any discounts, taxes, or additional fees. The reward will be credited to the referring User's Account balance. For the avoidance of doubt, the accrual of the reward is contingent upon the mandatory condition of the referred User's purchase of a Tariff Plan. The User shall not have the right to demand accrual and payment of any reward for referred Users who do not make a purchase of a Tariff Plan.

6.3. Withdrawal conditions. The earned referral rewards can be withdrawn by the referrer once per calendar month. The minimum withdrawal amount is $100. Withdrawal requests can be made through the designated withdrawal form on the Account. Payment of referral rewards is facilitated through SWIFT bank transfers to the provided IBAN details of the User. The Company reserves the right to offer the User other options for withdrawing the reward.

The Company aims to process withdrawal requests promptly. However, the actual processing time may vary depending on factors such as transaction volume and banking procedures. Referral rewards are disbursed in the currency specified by the referrer during the withdrawal process. Currency conversion fees or charges may apply, and these fees are the responsibility of the referrer.

6.4. Tax obligations. The Company may be obligated to withhold taxes on referral rewards in accordance with applicable tax laws and regulations. These taxes may include income taxes or other withholding obligations imposed by relevant tax authorities.

If tax withholding is required, the actual amount of the referral reward received by the User may be reduced by the amount of tax withheld by the Company. The withheld taxes are remitted to the appropriate tax authority on behalf of the User. The amount of tax withheld is determined based on the prevailing tax rates and regulations applicable to the jurisdiction where the User is subject to taxation.

Users are encouraged to consult with tax professionals or advisors to understand their tax obligations and the potential impact of tax withholding on their referral rewards.

6.5. Terms and conditions. Participation in the Program is subject to the terms and conditions set forth by the Company. Users are expected to comply with these terms to ensure eligibility for rewards.
