14.1. Grafterr has partnered with Stripe to provide a Payment Processing service. It should be noted that Grafterr is not a Payment Service Provider, rather merely an integrator of Stripe payment processing tools. For the avoidance of confusion, it should be noted that Grafterr is not regulated by FCA as a payment service provider. This Section is only applicable to Users who have signed up for this payment processing.
14.2. To accept payments using the App, the User is required to apply for a registration with Stripe. The User may be asked to provide certain documents, including, but not limited to, identity documents, business registration documents and address proof. If the User (irrespective of whether the User is a business or an individual) is rejected by Stripe to accept the payments, the User will not be able to use our App. Grafterr has no control over Stripe’s selection process.
14.3. The User shall be charged by Grafterr a Merchant Fee per payment processed via the Platform based on a pre-agreed fixed percentage. The Merchant Fee percentages payable to Grafterr and the money settlement frequency shall be communicated to the User during the sales/registration process or the Quotation process.
14.4. Grafterr shall provide the User with a “Payment Dashboard” with minimum transaction information for easy navigation and visibility of payments processed. Should the User wish to access full reporting on payments and further payment information, the User should log into their Stripe Merchant Account directly at https://stripe.com/gb .
14.5. Each transaction will be settled directly into the User’s Stripe Merchant Account after deducting any Merchant Fees and any Platform Fees. Grafterr does not have access to the funds in the User’s Stripe Merchant Account.
14.6. The User may choose to refund a transaction(s) after processing the payment. Regardless of whether a payment is refunded, the User is still required to pay the full Merchant Fees for the refunded transactions. Merchant fees are non-refundable in any circumstances.
14.7. The User may be required to pass any Anti-Money Laundering checks at any time, irrespective of which payment service provider they choose.

Any payment processing issues, including, but not limited to, fraudulent transactions and bank chargebacks shall be addressed to Stripe directly.
14.10. It is the User’s responsibility to familiarise themselves with all Stripe processes and fees associated with disputes and fraud, as well as best practises and guidance around identifying potential fraud. Further information, provided by Stripe, can be found at https://stripe.com/docs/disputes#managing-and-preventing-disputes
14.10.1. A dispute (also known as a chargeback, inquiry, or retrieval) occurs when a cardholder questions a payment with their card issuer. An inquiry or retrieval is a request for more information about the charge, which may escalate to a chargeback. To avoid an inquiry or retrieval becoming a chargeback, submit any required evidence or refund the payment in full. Refunding the payment marks the inquiry or retrieval as resolved and does not incur a dispute fee.
14.10.2. To process a chargeback, the card issuer creates a formal dispute, which immediately reverses the payment. The payment amount, along with a separate £15.00 dispute fee, is then deducted from the Merchant’s account balance. The dispute fee amount is subject to change as per Stripe’s discretion. Grafterr is not responsible for communicating any changes to the dispute fee amount to the User.
14.10.3. The User has full responsibility and/or liability for all payment disputes. The User shall deal with payment disputes through their Payment Dashboard by providing necessary evidence. In most cases, Stripe does not decide the outcome of the dispute. Stripe conveys your evidence to their financial partners. Stripe’s financial partners then pass your evidence to the card issuers, if they deem it sufficient. If you do not submit evidence by the time the deadline passes, the cardholder wins the dispute and keeps the funds.
14.10.4. All costs incurred during the dispute resolution process shall be covered by the User. The User shall keep the Company indemnified against any payment disputes and costs incurred during the dispute settlement process. The User acknowledges and agrees that using any form of Payment Processing is at the User’s own risk.
14.11. In the event that Grafterr’s partnership with Stripe is terminated, the User shall need to switch to another integrated provider to continue using Grafterr Payments for online ordering, and/or contactless table ordering, and/or self-checkout ordering, etc. The Company shall inform the User in advance of any such termination in partnership and provide details of any new third-party payment service provider that will replace Stripe’s functionalities. The User shall have the opportunity to review any new terms and conditions deriving from the new partnership and choose to switch to the new payment service provider, or a different third- party payment service provider (please see Section 15), or cancel any Grafterr services altogether (please see Section 23). The Company shall endeavour to make the transition period and process as smooth as possible for the User and their customers.
15.1. The Company’s Software supports Payment Processing with certain third-party partners (payment service providers) approved by Grafterr, including WorldPay, EVO, PaymentSense, and Sumup. It should be noted that Grafterr is not a Payment Service Provider, and is not regulated by FCA as a payment service provider, rather merely an integrator of payment processing tools. The User acknowledges and agrees that using any form of Payment Processing is at the User’s own risk.
15.2. Should the User wish to use online ordering, and/or contactless table ordering, and/or self-checkout ordering systems provided by Grafterr, the User must choose one payment service provider from the list of Grafterr approved partners. The User should take into consideration the cost, flexibility, and speed offered by each payment service provider before deciding which payment service provider will be best suited to the User’s business. Unless otherwise stated in a quotation, or any other documents in the Appendix of this Agreement, the Company shall not be guiding the User in the selection process. The User can request the Company to provide a list of all integrated payment service providers at any time.
15.3. Company payment processing partners may change from time to time or withdraw integration with or without prior notice. In such cases, the customer shall need to switch to another integrated provider to continue using Grafterr Payments for online ordering, and/or contactless table ordering, and/or self-checkout ordering, etc.
15.4. Payment Processing can only be activated when the User enters their login credentials (merchant key) onto the POS terminal.
15.5. Grafterr is not responsible for any issues with the payment gateway, including, but not limited to, fraudulent transactions and bank chargebacks. The Grafterr Technical Support team cannot assist with any payment processing issues, including, but not limited to, fraudulent transactions, bank chargebacks and login issues. The User shall direct such issues to their bank/merchant account provider.
15.6. The User may be required to pass any Anti-Money Laundering checks at any time, irrespective of which payment service provider they choose. The User shall always comply with all Anti-Money Laundering statute and legislation. Any non-compliance shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and the possibility for immediate termination of this Agreement as per Section 31.4.6.
15.7. Other than as specified in Section 15.2, should the User work with a Payment Service Provider not integrated into the Company’s ePOS Software, the User shall need to manually enter all payment details onto the merchant card terminal.
15.8. This Section 15 is only applicable to Users who have opted for Grafterr Payments processed by a third-party partner other than Stripe.
16.1. Status Disclosure: Grafterr is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) for secondary credit broking services. The Company works with third-party companies, which provide finance products with the aim to assist our users when purchasing hardware goods from us. Information about Grafterr’s authorised activities and product types can be found on the FCA website under FRN 843862.
16.2. The User acknowledges and consents to third-party financial institutions’ requirement to access their credit score information. This access is necessary to evaluate the User's eligibility for obtaining financial assistance and to gauge the associated risk for the third- party institution during the process of providing such assistance. In each instance, a credit check may be recorded on the User’s credit score profile. Grafterr has no impact over the third-party companies’ decision whether to provide financial assistance to any user.
16.3. Each hardware purchase requiring financial assistance shall be provided in the form of a proposal by the third-party company and be governed by separate terms and conditions between the User and the third-party company.
16.4. It is the User’s responsibility to evaluate the impact of any fees, loan terms and interest rates on the overall repayment sum and their capacity to afford the scheduled repayments. For instance, shorter terms typically come with higher monthly payments but lower overall interest costs; while longer terms may have lower monthly payments but can result in higher total interest payments over time; or you may be charged an early-repayment fee by your lender for repaying the full amount sooner than agreed.
16.5. All repayments shall be made directly to the third-party company providing the User with finance assistance. Any delayed or missed payments may affect your credit score and/or incur a penalty fee. Grafterr has no involvement in the repayment process and shall not be responsible for transferring any payments wrongly sent by the User to Grafterr, rather than their lender.
16.6. You may be able to independently obtain finance with better terms. Grafterr makes no warranties or representations that the portfolio of third-party lenders we work with may be able to provide the best interest rates or payment terms available to you.
16.7. Any complaints regarding the third-party company providing your finance shall be raised with them directly. You should familiarise yourself with their complaints procedure. Grafterr has no involvement in the services, policies and procedures of any third-party lenders we may work with.
16.8. Grafterr may receive commission from third-party lenders for referring their services to our users. The Company shall not be required to disclose any further information about any such commissions.

17.1. All queries, requests and/or issues shall be directed to the Company Customer Support Team for review. The Customer Support Team, which includes the Technical Support Team, is operational on a 24/7 basis. In the event of any unforeseen disruption to the telephone and/or Internet connection with the Customer Support Team, the operation times may be reduced. The Company shall endeavour to minimise the effect of any such disruption onto the Customer Support Team operations.
17.2. The Company uses an internal ticketing system across all support channels. All data collected via the ticketing system shall only be used for ticket prioritisation and producing reports for internal management and improvements. Any data used for internal reports shall be anonymised first. No data shall be distributed to any third party without prior consent from the User.
17.3. The customer support channels available to the User shall be dependent upon the User’s subscription level. In the unlikely event that a particular support channel experiences technical difficulties and becomes temporarily unavailable, the User shall attempt to contact the Customer Support Team via a different support channel.
17.4. The User shall receive technical support in case of any issues with the Company’s software and or hardware within 24 hours of sending a request through telephone or email at support@grafterr.com. For more complex issues, the request will be passed to our second line support team for resolution within 72 hours of the initial User’s request. In the unlikely event that the Technical Support Team encounters a new issue not dealt with before, the Company shall endeavour to keep the User informed on the expected timeframe for resolution and keep any disruption to the Services functionality to a minimum.
17.5. Telephone technical support (+44 131 564 1559) is available to the User free of charge for the first three (3) months of their license subscription.

17.6. Remote training on the use of the Cloud services can be provided upon request by the User, depending on reasonable timeframes and availability of Company engineers. Repeat training may be charged at an additional cost to the User. Any such cost and payment process shall be communicated to the User in advance.

17.7.1. The User shall be required to assist with troubleshooting any technical issues while being guided by an engineer remotely.
17.7.2. Should any troubleshooting require additional time for resolving, the User shall be given the option to proceed with the troubleshooting at a time more convenient to the User.

Grafterr shall review the Customer Support Team’s location as deemed necessary by the Company.

18.1. The Software is developed in Android, PHP, Python, Flutters, Angular, HTML, MySQL, JavaScript, eJabber, CSS and a number of other software tools.

If any third-party software used becomes paid, the User shall subscribe to it or pay additional fees to the Company to cover the necessary license fees.
18.2. The Company has integrated Google Maps API to find addresses with a postcode. These address lookups are useful while taking orders, registering customers, loyalty management, etc. The Company has no control over these records, therefore it does not hold any responsibility or liability for the accuracy of such records. The Company shall provide the User with one thousand (1,000) address lookups free of charge every month. Any additional address lookups shall be charged at an additional rate, as specified in the subscription level or Quotation, and added onto the following month’s subscription charges.
18.3. To enhance the Software usage, the company has integrated third-party tools such as, but not limited to, Deliveroo, Deliverect, MailChimp, Message Bird, SendGrid, Twilio, Xero and many others. If the User wants to use the services from any integrated third-party tools, they must subscribe to services directly from the provider. The Company does not hold any responsibility for pricing, tool-performance and disputes related to third-party tools. Should the User already have a subscription with any of the integrated third-party tools, the User may sync their third part account with the Software.
18.4. Third-party tools and/or integrations may change with or without prior notice to Grafterr and/or the User.

You have the right to refuse a split delivery before the order is dispatched and wait for all items to become available at the same time, or request to cancel your order and get a refund.
19.4. In the unlikely event that we deliver a wrong item of hardware, you have the right to either:
19.5. Should any items arrive damaged in transit, the User needs to report this to Grafterr within seven (7) working days of delivery. If the packaging is visibly damaged when received, the User is required to bring this to the attention of the delivery driver who may be able to record this on their system. Should any damaged items need to be replaced, the User shall make them available for collection with original packaging including all accessories and documentation. Grafterr shall arrange the collection and process a replacement delivery.
19.6. Under the definitions given in the Consumer Rights Act 2015, and the terms of Section 1.6, the User is not classed as a “consumer” and no consumer statutory rights are applicable to this Agreement. However, as a gesture of goodwill, Grafterr operates a “7 Days Money Back Guarantee” policy for purchases of Hardware items.
19.7. For any other formal complaint with a genuine reason, you have seven (7) days from the day of delivery to request a refund, subject to our discretion and acceptance of the complaint.
19.8. In the event of a return, any relevant refunds, credit notes or exchanges can only be made to the payment card account or the business/person that made the order originally. Debit/credit card payment refunds can take up to twenty-eight (28) days to process, even if you contact us immediately after placing your order to cancel. This processing time is beyond our control and we apologise for the inconvenience it may cause.
19.9. Any amounts paid for onsite installations, product imports, support payments, postage, module integrations, repair and labour costs are non-refundable.
19.10. All costs with respect to Software sales and license subscriptions are excluded from the standard returns policy due to the considerable costs in configuration, personalization, training, and installation. These items are strictly non-refundable.
20.1. The User reserves the right to request a warranty return, by contacting the Customer Support Team, should the User feel the equipment provided by Grafterr is ‘not fit for purpose' within the one (1) year basic manufacturer’s warranty.
20.2. The Company shall endeavour to obtain proper reasons as to why the User feels the product is ‘not fit for purpose' and attempt to reasonably resolve any issues upon remote troubleshooting.
20.3. Should the issues not be resolved remotely, the Company shall request for the User to send, via a courier service, the faulty hardware to a nominated address for repair. The User shall pack the hardware in appropriate packaging to avoid any damage in transit. The Company reserves the right to charge the User for any damage caused in transit due to poor packaging.
20.4. Once the hardware is repaired, the Company shall post the repaired hardware back to the User. Should the fault be non-repairable, the Company shall send the User a replacement of the faulty hardware. Any replacement hardware may be a refurbished item.
20.5. If the item returned is found to be in a working condition but in a poor and unreasonable state of cleanliness, the User will be billed for cleaning at a fixed rate of £50 per item.
20.6. Warranty refunds may only be offered by the Company after all endeavours have been made by the Company to resolve any arising issue/fault and no reasonable replacement equipment is available.
20.7. The company cannot process a warranty refund of hardware due to any of the following reasons:
20.8. The Company does not offer on-site visits to the User’s location as part of our warranty repair process. All technical support provided by the Company is on a remote basis.
20.9. Hardware repairs outside the one (1) year basic manufacturer’s warranty could be carried out at an additional cost to the User. Any such cost shall be agreed by the Company and the User, prior to any work being carried out.

21.2. User Opt In: The Program allows Users to receive SMS/MMS mobile messages by affirmatively opting into the Program, such as through online, offline, or application-based enrolment forms.

21.8. MMS Disclosure: The Program will send SMS TMs (terminating messages) if your mobile device does not support MMS messaging.
21.9. Disclaimer of Warranty: The Program is offered on an "as-is" basis and may not be available in all areas at all times and may not continue to work in the event of product, software, coverage or other changes made by the User’s wireless carrier/service provider/network operator.
21.10. Participant Requirements: the User must have a wireless device of their own, capable of two-way messaging, be using a participating wireless carrier, and be a wireless service subscriber with text messaging service. Not all cellular telephone providers carry the necessary service to participate in the Program. The User should check their telephone capabilities for specific text messaging instructions.
21.11. Age Restriction: You may not use or engage with the Program if you are under thirteen (13) years of age. If you use or engage with the Program and are between the ages of thirteen (13) and eighteen (18) years of age, you must have your parent’s or legal guardian’s permission to do so.

21.15. The failure of either Party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder.

21.17. Any new features, changes, updates or improvements of the Program shall be subject to this Agreement unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing.
21.18. Grafterr reserves the right to change this Agreement from time to time. Any updates to this Agreement shall be communicated to the User. The User acknowledges the User’s responsibility to review this Agreement from time to time and to be aware of any such changes. By continuing to participate in the Program after any such changes, the User accepts this Agreement, as modified.
22.1. Grafterr is committed to providing a quality service for its customers and operating in an open, accountable, and respectful way. If you are unsatisfied with any part of our service, please contact us immediately via telephone or email. The Company shall endeavour to resolve any issues within reasonable time. The Company shall use the following Complaints Procedure with regards to any issues not related to hardware malfunctioning:
22.1.1. Stage 1 - If you are unable to resolve an issue informally, you should contact us directly in writing via email or post and give us a chance to put things right. In your contact email/letter to us, you should set out the details of your complaint, the resulting consequences you have faced, and the remedy that you seek. You can expect your complaint to be acknowledged within five (5) business days of receipt and you should get an official response within twenty (20) business days. Our contact details can be found on the ‘Contact Us’ part of our Grafterr Website -https://www.grafterr.com/uk/contact-us
22.1.2. Stage 2 - If you are not satisfied with the initial response to the complaint, then you can write to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) via email or post and ask for a review of your complaint and response received. You can expect the CEO to acknowledge your request within five (5) business days of receipt and a response within twenty (20) business days. Grafterr aims to resolve every issue as quickly as reasonably possible. However, certain issues may be more complex and, therefore, may require more time for a thorough investigation. If an issue requires further investigation, you will receive details of what steps are being taken to investigate the complaint, in what timescales an official response can be expected and from whom.
22.1.3. Final Stage - If you are not satisfied with the subsequent reply and action taken by the CEO, then you have the option of writing to any of the following, depending on the nature of your complaint:

23.1. The User may request to cancel their license subscription subject to a thirty (30) days’ notice to Grafterr by contacting the Customer Support Team via email or telephone.
23.2. Should the User’s billing cycle fall during the thirty (30) days’ notice period, a full subscription shall be charged. Once the subscription is cancelled, a refund will be issued on a pro-rota basis for any period covered by the subscription past the termination date.
23.3. During the thirty (30) days’ notice of subscription cancellation, the User shall download all data stored on the Cloud Software for their account. After the license subscription is cancelled, all account data will be permanently deleted. There is no possible way to retrieve deleted data.

24.1. Grafterr calculates tax on each line which is sold in a transaction as a common practice in most software.
24.2. The User might see a difference in total tax when calculating tax based on single transaction vs total sales for a specific period. For example, if you consider an item sold at 25p with 20% tax, this will result in a tax of 4.16p which is rounded to 4p per transaction. If this item is sold separately 100 times, then the accrued tax will be £4.00. However, if you calculate this as 20% of the total 100 items, you will get £4.16 tax.
24.3. Discounts applied to tax on a transaction are taken equally from all items in the transaction (pro-rota).
24.4. Grafterr is not liable for any incorrect tax calculations. It is the User’s responsibility to take professional tax advice before submitting returns to tax and other governing authorities.

26.3. The User undertakes not to challenge or do anything inconsistent with such ownership.
26.4. The User grants the Company, by using the software, a royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual license to use information and/or data collected from the User’s activity on the Software, provided that the information or data is anonymised before use. Other than this right, the Company claims no intellectual property rights in relation to the information or contents the User inputs into the Software.
26.5. The User may provide the Company with feedback, alternative options, comments or suggestions on the Software, and the User agrees that the Company will be free to use, modify and incorporate such suggestions without any obligation to the User.

27.2.7. Use any other User's information for any marketing purposes unless they have obtained the User's express permission to do so; or
27.2.8. Access or register user logins via any automated methods.
28.1. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for:
28.2. Nothing in these terms and conditions will restrict any of your statutory rights.

Nothing in these Terms obliges us to prioritise any order placed by the User in an event of Force Majeure.
28.7. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in Clause 22.5 shall excuse the Customer from any payment obligations under this agreement.
28.8. The products sold by Grafterr are provided for commercial use only. Accordingly, we do not accept liability for any indirect loss, consequential loss, loss of data, loss of income or profit, loss or damage to property and/or loss from claims of third parties arising out of the use of the Software and/or Hardware or for any products or services purchased from the Company.
28.9. We have taken all reasonable steps to prevent Internet fraud and ensure any data collected from you is stored as securely and safely as possible. However, we cannot be held liable in the unlikely event of a breach in our secure computer servers or those of third parties.
28.10. No delay or failure on our part to enforce our rights or remedies under the Agreement shall constitute a waiver on our part of such rights or remedies unless such waiver is confirmed in writing.

Thus, if you are an individual (e.g., employee or consultant) acting on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have obtained all necessary authorizations or consents (i.e., you must be an authorized representative) to accept these Terms on behalf of such Organization so that, in addition to yourself, such Organization is bound by these Terms.
30.1. If any part of these Terms and Conditions is found to be invalid by a court of Law, tribunal or another forum of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise rendered unenforceable, that decision shall not invalidate or void the other parts of this Agreement. An amendment of these Terms and Conditions shall be deemed to have been undertaken by any modification or severing parts of the Terms and Conditions as necessary to render them valid, legal and enforceable while preserving their sole purpose.
