PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING THE WURTHY WEBSITE OR USING THE WURTHY SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE (1) WURTHY TERMS OF SERVICE, (2) WURTHY E-SIGN CONSENT AGREEMENT, (3) WURTHY PRIVACY POLICY AND PRIVACY NOTICE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, PLEASE DO NOT ACCESS THE WURTHY WEBSITE OR USE THE WURTHY SERVICE. THE HEADINGS CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE FOR REFERENCE PURPOSES ONLY. YOU SHOULD PRINT A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR YOUR RECORDS.


These Terms are a binding contract between individuals who use our Services (“Users”) and WURTHY, INC. (“Wurthy,” “we” and “us”). By accessing wurthy.com (“Website”) or otherwise using the Services you agree to these Terms. By using the Services, you also agree to the Wurthy Privacy Policy which is incorporated into these Terms.


1. WHAT ARE YOU AGREEING TO?


The Parties to this Agreement. These Terms of Service describe a contractual relationship ("Agreement") between you ("you" or "your") and Wurthy, Inc. ("Wurthy," "we," "us," "our"), regarding (1) your use of this website ("Website") or any mobile application offered by or marketed by or on behalf of Wurthy or any other technology platform offered by Wurthy, (each an "Wurthy App"), (2) your use of the Website, a Wurthy App, or a third-party website in connection with a product or service offered directly by Wurthy, as applicable, (3) your use of "Additional Tools" as described below in Section 2, (4) your use of any other service(s) offered through the Website or a Wurthy App, as applicable, including, without limitation, Retail Installment Contracts and savings accounts; and (5) your access to your Wurthy account information and access to any service through the Website or an Wurthy App (collectively, the "Wurthy Service(s)" or "Service(s)"). We may partner with banks (each, a "Bank Partner") to offer certain products and services and we offer certain products and services directly to you. If you are approved for a product offered through Wurthy by one of these Bank Partners, or through other partnerships with Bank Partners, you will enter into an agreement with the Bank Partner. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any agreement you enter into with a Bank Partner (and not this Agreement) will control with respect to the associated Bank Partner product.


Changes to this Agreement. Wurthy may unilaterally decide to change this Agreement from time to time, provided, however, that such changes will not impose additional obligations on you with respect to actions you took before the change became effective unless you specifically agree to such changes (for example, by confirming a Retail Installment Contract). Additionally, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT ANY CHANGES TO THIS AGREEMENT BY USING THE WURTHY SERVICES AFTER CHANGES HAVE BEEN POSTED. If Wurthy makes any changes to this Agreement that it deems to be material, Wurthy will make a reasonable effort to inform you of such changes, but it is your responsibility to review the Agreement posted to our website from time to time to see if it has been changed.


Your Eligibility. To be eligible to use the Services, you must be at least 18 years old (19 years old if you are a ward of the state in Nebraska) and a resident of the United States or its territories, or an eligible Sole Proprietorship business entity. Retail Installment Contracts originated by a Bank Partner or directly by Wurthy may not be available everywhere. You represent and warrant that you are eligible to use the Services.


2. HOW WURTHY WILL SERVE YOU


Buy with Wurthy: When you buy with Wurthy you may be offered a closed-end installment product with terms as expressed in your Retail Installment Contract. Your agreement is between you and the merchant you are purchasing goods or services from and it is facilitated through Wurthy's technology platform. Terms may vary based on purchase price and merchant and may not be available in all states. Wurthy's services allow you to buy goods or services offered by merchants ("Merchants") for personal or business use, where available. If you buy with Wurthy, depending on the product, the merchant has the option of assigning the retail installment contract to Wurthy and Wurthy will pay the Merchant in exchange for your promise to repay the same amount plus a finance charge, where applicable.


Your Promise to Pay: Before completing any transaction through any Wurthy Services, Wurthy will secure your promise to pay by disclosing the terms and conditions applicable to that transaction and securing your affirmative consent to those terms for that transaction, including your promise to pay the Total Payments amount to the merchant or its assigns, by asking you to click the button to confirm your retail installment contract. Your retail installment contract may include additional obligations such as wage assignment and / or a blanket security lien depending on your creditworthiness.


Interest Rates: Rates range from 0% to 36% fixed Annual Percentage Rate ("APR"), depending on your creditworthiness and/or the type of product offered (0% APR may only be offered at select merchants). Retail installment contracts are simple interest agreements, which means that interest, if any, accrues daily on the unpaid principal balance, up to the amount of the finance charge, until you pay the agreement in full.


Finance Charge: retail Installment contracts may be subject to a finance charge based on the applicable interest rate. The merchant will always disclose the specific finance charge before you agree to the installment contract.


Late Payment Fee: You may be charged a late fee when you buy with Wurthy as agreed in the purchase contract.


Platform Fee: You may be charged a platform fee on your monthly payments which can range from 0% to 4% depending on your creditworthiness and/or the type of product purchased.


Delays in Processing: In some cases, when you buy with Wurthy to make a purchase, the transaction may be held as pending or be otherwise delayed for processing and confirmation by either Wurthy or the merchant and can be canceled at any time until it is confirmed by Wurthy.


Extended Ship Date: If when buying with Wurthy, one or more items in your order has an extended ship date, your Retail Installment Contract payment(s), including interest, may be due before the merchant ships the item(s). Please note that you may not receive a rebate of any interest that may have already accrued on an amount that later gets refunded.

When you shop with a merchant directly from a Wurthy App, we can autofill your details on the merchant's site. This is enabled when you log in to an Wurthy App so that we know it is you that is shopping with that merchant.
  • Limitations on Tools: You agree that we may modify the tools or cease making them available to you at any time without notice.

  • Third Party Providers: We may rely on third party providers to assist us in making a tool or other Wurthy Service available to you. By linking your bank account to a tool or Service, you authorize us and our third party providers to access your financial accounts on your behalf, and to gather information about you. You give us and our third party providers a limited power of attorney, and appoint us and our third party providers as your true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent to act on your behalf and access, transmit, and use your information as necessary to provide the tools and other Services. You agree to the transfer, storage, and processing of your information by these third party providers in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

The tools are intended only to provide general assistance in organizing your finances. Before making any financial decisions or implementing any strategy, you should consider obtaining additional information and advice from your accountant or other financial advisers who are fully aware of your individual circumstances.
  • Accuracy, Reliability and Timeliness of Information: YOUR USE OF THE TOOLS IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. INFORMATION PROVIDED THROUGH THE TOOLS IS ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. WE MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT THE TOOLS WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS, OR BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, ACCURATE OR RELIABLE.

  • Collecting Information About You. By using the Wurthy Services, you authorize Wurthy, directly or through third parties, to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate your identity and to collect information about you in accordance with the Customer Identification Program (CIP) rules implementing Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and our Privacy Policy. This may include validating information regarding your sole proprietorship business, if applicable. This may also include asking you for further information that will allow us to reasonably identify you, requiring you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email address or financial instruments, or verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources. We may also ask you for identifying documents to help us validate your identity. Wurthy reserves the right to close, suspend, or limit access to your account and/or the Services in the event we are unable to obtain or verify this information.


    Credit Report Authorization and Reporting. You expressly authorize Wurthy and each of Wurthy's Bank Partners to obtain (for itself or on behalf of Wurthy or a Bank Partner) consumer reports from consumer reporting agencies about you (1) when you request offers or apply for an installment contract or Savings Account, (2) periodically throughout the term of your installment contract (including in the month following the month when you pay off or otherwise satisfy the contract) or Savings Account, and (3) from time to time in connection with any other services that we offer or that you may obtain from us, including, without limitation, your Wurthy account, the Wurthy Savings Account, or services involving financial management and credit profile tools.


    In each case you expressly authorize us and each Bank Partner to use such consumer report about you, and information derived therefrom, in connection with:


    (i) your installment contract or Savings Account, including determining your eligibility, servicing or maintaining your Retail Installment Contract or account, verifying your identity, verifying information you provide to Wurthy or a Bank Partner, and for collecting any amount you owe us or a Bank Partner or any of our respective successors or assigns;


    (ii) marketing, including pre-qualifications and other forms of marketing, for Retail Installment Contracts that may be provided by us or a Bank Partner and any other service we offer or you obtain from us or any Bank Partner through the Wurthy Services, such as financial management tools or the marketplace;


    (iii) our internal use, including statistical analyses and to develop, improve, analyze, study, and maintain products and services we or any Bank Partner offers or may offer through the Wurthy Services; and


    (iv) providing you with information or Wurthy Services, including information about your credit profile and to deliver services upon your request (such as financial management tools and credit profile tools).


    If you request offers or apply for multiple or additional Retail Installment Contracts or an additional Wurthy Service, you further authorize us and our Bank Partners to share with each other information it has about you (including a consumer report), in order to determine your eligibility in connection with such offers or applications.


    You understand that Wurthy and/or any of its Bank Partners may report information about your Retail Installment Contract or Savings Account (such as on-time, late, and missed payments; any defaults; and the fact you paid off your Retail Installment Contract) to consumer reporting agencies, and that such information may be reflected in your credit report or other consumer reports about you.


    Servicing & Collection. You agree to allow Wurthy to send you payment reminders from time-to-time. Notwithstanding whether you have consented or withdrawn your consent to the Wurthy E-Sign Consent, you agree that payment reminders may take the form of any available communication, subject to applicable law. You also agree that if you fail to pay an amount owed to Wurthy pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement you have with us or any Bank Partner, Wurthy may engage in collection efforts to recover such amounts from you. These collection efforts may involve contacting you directly, submitting your information to a collections agency, or taking legal action. If your account is delinquent merchants have the right to cease any services being provided or repossess any item purchased without notice. In addition, if your account is delinquent for more than 30 days merchants have the right to require payment in full. FAILURE TO PAY MAY AFFECT YOUR CREDIT SCORE.


    Communication & Notification. You agree that Wurthy may provide you communications about your account and any Wurthy Service electronically or through phone calls or in writing to any contact information we have on file for you. Standard mobile, message, or data rates may apply and you are responsible for any such fees. Wurthy reserves the right to close or limit access to your account or a Service and immediately collect all due amounts if you withdraw your consent to receive electronic or other communications or if you revoke access to any third party site on which the Wurthy Service relies or if any such service should revoke or cancel your account on that site. Any electronic communications will be considered to be received by you at the time we email it to you or otherwise send it to your attention (such as via sms or other online or mobile notification). We may assume you have received any communications sent to you by postal mail 3 business days after we send it. If we need to contact you to service your account or to collect amounts you owe to us, you give direct consent to us, as well as servicers, agents, contractors and collectors of your account, to communicate with you in any way, such as calling, texting, or email via:

  • a mobile phone or landline you provide to us, use to contact us, or at which we believe we can reach you (even if it is not yours),
  • any email address you provide to us, one of our Bank Partners, service providers, or one of our Merchants,
  • automated dialer systems and automatic telephone dialing systems,
  • pre-recorded or artificial voice messages and other forms of communications.

  • You also agree that these communications are not unsolicited for purposes of any state or federal law, and you understand that this may result in additional mobile, text message, or data charges.


    You understand and agree that Wurthy may monitor or record telephone conversations you or anyone acting on your behalf has with Wurthy or its agents for quality control and training purposes or for its own protection. You acknowledge and understand that, while your communications with Wurthy may be overheard, monitored, or recorded without further notice or warning, not all telephone lines or calls may be recorded by Wurthy, and Wurthy does not guarantee that recordings of any particular telephone calls will be retained or retrievable.


    Notwithstanding this provision, Wurthy's delivery of any Disclosures governed by the Wurthy E-Sign Consent shall be governed by your consent or withdrawal of consent to receiving such Disclosures in electronic form.


    Working with Third Parties. If you grant express permission to a third party to take specific actions on your behalf, or access particular information about your account, either through your use of the third party's product or service or through your Wurthy account, you acknowledge that Wurthy may disclose the information about your account that is authorized by you to this third party. You also acknowledge that granting permission to a third party to take specific actions on your behalf does not relieve you of any of your responsibilities under this Agreement. Further, you acknowledge and agree that you will not hold Wurthy responsible for, and will indemnify Wurthy from, any liability arising from the actions or inactions of this third party in connection with the permissions you grant.


    You authorize your wireless carrier to use or disclose information about your account and your wireless device, if available, to Wurthy or its service provider for the duration of your business relationship, solely to help them identify you or your wireless device and to prevent fraud.

    Funds Availability: For business partners, Wurthy processes incoming payments as part of transaction servicing. Wurthy retains these payments for a period of ten (10) business days to facilitate the settlement of funds. This holding period is implemented to mitigate the risk of payment cancellations or stop payments initiated by the sending bank.

  • 5. HOW WURTHY WILL RESOLVE DISPUTES


    Disputes with Wurthy. If a dispute arises between you and Wurthy, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. In the event of a dispute we encourage you first to contact Wurthy through the Wurthy Help Center at support@wurthy.co to try resolving your problem directly with us.


    Mandatory Arbitration. THIS SECTION AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE BY USING THE Wurthy SERVICE OR THE WEBSITE.


    Unless you are a covered borrower as defined by the Military Lending Act, 10 U.S.C. § 987, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, except as explicitly provided in this Agreement, any dispute or claim relating in any way to your visit to the Website, your use of the Wurthy Services, a product offered or provided by or through the Website or Service, or otherwise arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services that cannot be resolved directly between you and Wurthy shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the Consumer Arbitration Rules ("the Consumer Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), rather than in court. Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Section, this broadly includes: any claims based in contract, statute, tort, fraud, consumer rights, misrepresentation, equity or any other legal theory; initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims; federal, state and local claims; and claims which arose before the date of this Agreement. The Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is limited, but an arbitrator can award an individual the same damages and relief as a court and must apply and follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. The arbitrator shall apply applicable statutes of limitations and honor privilege rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator will be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.


    YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT YOUR CONSENT TO ARBITRATION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.


    Either you or we can initiate arbitration through AAA, an alternative dispute resolution provider, or by filing a motion to compel arbitration of claims filed in court. Regardless of who elected arbitration or how arbitration was elected, the party asserting the claim (i.e., the party seeking money damages or other relief from a court or an arbitrator) is responsible for starting the arbitration proceeding. If AAA cannot serve, a court with jurisdiction shall select the arbitrator, who will apply the AAA rules and procedures specified in this Section. Any arbitration will be governed by the then-current Consumer Rules of the AAA, and its Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes through Document Submission ("Document Submission Procedures"). The Consumer Rules are available at the AAA website: www.adr.org. The Document Submission Procedures are included in the Consumer Rules. Your arbitration filing fees will be governed by the Consumer Rules. If it is determined by the arbitrator that you cannot afford such fees, Wurthy will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration will be conducted solely based on written submissions. The arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless the arbitrator determines that a telephonic or in-person conference or hearing is necessary based on the request of one or more of the parties. Disputes or controversies about the validity, enforceability, coverage or scope of this Section or any part thereof are for a court and not an arbitrator to decide; however, disputes or controversies about the Agreement as a whole are for an arbitrator and not a court to decide.


    CLASS ACTION WAIVER: You and Wurthy each agree that any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated or representative action. To the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration will be joined or consolidated with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action or private attorney general basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. No arbitrator shall have the authority to issue any relief that applies to any person or entity other than Wurthy and/or you individually.


    If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. Even if all parties have opted to litigate a claim in court, a party may elect arbitration with respect to any claim made by a new party or any claim later asserted by a party in that or any related or unrelated lawsuit (including a claim initially asserted on an individual basis but modified to be asserted on a class, representative or multi-party basis). Nothing in that litigation shall constitute a waiver of any rights under this Section. You and Wurthy each agree that any disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of intellectual property rights will not be subject to binding arbitration under this Section. In addition, pursuant to the Consumer Rules, any party may proceed with their individual claims in small claims court if that option is available in the applicable jurisdiction and the amount in controversy falls within the small claims court's jurisdictional limits; but if that action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court, arbitration can be elected. If any portion of this Section is inconsistent with the Consumer Rules or other provisions of this Agreement, this Section shall govern. This Section shall survive termination of this Agreement and any bankruptcy by you, to the extent consistent with applicable bankruptcy law. No portion of this Section may be amended absent a written agreement signed by all parties. If any portion of this Section is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Section, except that: (A) If the Class Action Waiver is limited, voided or found unenforceable, then this Section (except for this sentence) shall be null and void with respect to such proceeding, subject to the right to appeal the limitation or invalidation of the Class Action Waiver. The parties acknowledge and agree that under no circumstances will a class action be arbitrated; and (B) if a claim is brought seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the restrictions in the Class Action Waiver or elsewhere in this Section prohibiting the arbitrator from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such claim (and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted), the claim for public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual claims seeking monetary relief will be arbitrated. In such a case the parties will request that the court stay the claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration award pertaining to individual relief has been entered in court. In no event will a claim for public injunctive relief be arbitrated. No arbitration award involving the parties will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute involving anyone who is not a party to the arbitration, nor will an arbitration award in prior disputes involving other parties have a preclusive effect in an arbitration between the parties to this Section.


    RIGHT TO OPT OUT: If you do not want this Section to apply, you must send Wurthy a signed notice within 30 calendar days after you agree to be bound by the Agreement as described above. You must send the notice in writing (and not electronically) to Wurthy, Inc. Attn. "Terms of Service Section 5 Opt Out", 30 Isabella Street, Floor 4, Pittsburgh, PA 15212. You must provide your name, address, and phone number and state that you "opt out" of Section 5 within the Wurthy Terms of Service. Opting out of this Mandatory Arbitration provision will not affect the other provisions of this Agreement. If you properly and timely opt out of Mandatory Arbitration as described herein, your opt out request will apply only to this Agreement and not any other agreement between us.

    6. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS


    Payment Coverage for Merchant. The Customer agrees to purchase goods and/or services from the Merchant under an installment agreement facilitated by WURTHY, INC. ("Wurthy"). The Customer commits to making all payments due under this agreement in accordance with the terms specified in the installment plan provided at the time of purchase. The Customer acknowledges that failure to make timely payments constitutes a breach of this agreement.


    Legal Fees and Costs: In the event of non-payment by the Customer, and should Wurthy or the Merchant find it necessary to undertake legal action to recover amounts owed under this agreement, the Customer shall be responsible for all legal fees, costs, and expenses incurred by Wurthy or the Merchant in such action. This includes, but is not limited to, attorney's fees, court costs, and any other expenses associated with the enforcement of this agreement.


    The Customer acknowledges that this obligation extends to the reimbursement of all costs associated with the collection of the debt, including legal action taken to recover the said amounts. The Customer agrees that this provision will survive any termination or expiration of the installment agreement.


    In certain circumstances and at Wurthy's discretion the merchant may assign their customer's retail installment contract(s) to Wurthy in exchange for the remaining principal owed to the merchant at that time.
