These Terms also apply to the online applications designed and offered by Wagepoint (“Wagepoint App(s)” individually or collectively as appropriate) and Wagepoint’s website at www.wagepoint.com, all related webpages, and all related websites operated by affiliates or divisions of Wagepoint (collectively, the “Website”). The use of the term “Services” refers to Payroll Services, Track and/or Luna depending on which Services you have subscribed for or maintain an account for. If you have agreed to accept the Track or Luna services, additional terms of use will apply (see https://wagepoint.com/Track-TOS.html for the Track terms of use (the “Track Terms”) and https://wagepoint.com/Luna-TOS.html for the Luna terms of use (the “Luna Terms”)).

You have indicated your intention to be bound by this Agreement by clicking the “Get Started” button (or other button indicating acceptance) on our Website, or by completing and submitting a sign-up form for the Wagepoint App(s) via the Website. Any use by you of any of the Services or the Wagepoint App(s) will also indicate your intention to be bound by this Agreement.

In this Agreement, “you” shall refer to any person who subscribes for or uses the Services or maintains an account with Wagepoint, and includes such person’s employees and agents (including any third-party accountants or bookkeepers acting on such person's behalf). If you are an individual entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have been authorized or that you have the necessary authority to bind such entity and its affiliates to this Agreement and to create the Account, in which case the terms "you" or "your" shall refer to such entity and its affiliates and not to you personally. If you do not have such authority you must not accept this Agreement on behalf of the entity and may not use the Wagepoint App(s) or the Services.

Overview of Payroll and Tax Processing Services

Payroll Services allow businesses to calculate and process payroll for their employees and remit their taxes to the appropriate taxation authorities in jurisdictions where Wagepoint offers the Services.

Payroll processing includes: the calculation of gross to net pay for your employee; creating output in the form of direct deposit payments in the amount of employees’ net pay; file transmissions; maintaining software to process payrolls, including implementing modifications as required by changes in legislation; providing reports; and providing customer support in relation to payroll processing. After a minimum of two (2) payrolls within the fiscal year have been processed by you through the Wagepoint App(s), payroll processing will include the production of year-end tax forms.

Tax processing includes: withholding and remitting your statutory remittances including income tax, employment insurance, government pension plans, and other government remittances relating to Payroll. Wagepoint will comply with all current statutory deduction rates stipulated by the appropriate taxation authority. The statutory remittance funds shall form part of the Payroll Funds (defined below).

Binding Agreement

This Agreement (including policies and notices posted on Website, all of which are incorporated herein by reference) is legally binding and explains our obligations as a service provider and your obligations as a user of the Wagepoint App(s) and subscriber for the Services, so it is important that you read this Agreement carefully. All provisions of this Agreement are, notwithstanding the manner in which they have been grouped together or linked grammatically, severable from each other. If any of the provisions of this Agreement should be determined to be unenforceable the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall survive and remain in full force and effect and continue to be binding and enforceable.

Wagepoint reserves the right to modify or change any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Track Terms or the Luna Terms, including any fees, at any time without any prior notice, which will be effective immediately upon posting the modified or changed Agreement to the Website; however, important modifications or changes will be communicated to you by email or announced on the Website or the Wagepoint App(s). The most current version of this Agreement can be viewed by clicking the “Terms of Use” link at the bottom of the pages of our Website and the Wagepoint App(s). The most current version of our Privacy Policy can be viewed by clicking the “Privacy Policy” link at the bottom of the pages of our Website and the Wagepoint App(s). At any given time, your use of the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services will be subject to the then-current Agreement (including the then-current Privacy Policy, and other policies and notices posted on the Website, all of which are incorporated in such then-current Agreement by such reference) as posted on the Website and your use of the Services or the Wagepoint App(s) at any time will be deemed your conclusive acceptance of the then-current Terms.

If you cannot or do not wish to comply with any of the terms and conditions outlined within this Agreement, your only remedy is to discontinue using the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services. If you are unable to meet any or all of the conditions outlined in this Agreement for any reason, Wagepoint has the right to deny you access to the Wagepoint App(s) and any of the Services, with or without prior notice to you, and you must destroy any materials downloaded or printed from the Wagepoint App(s).

Conditions of Usage

Wagepoint grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable limited license to use the Wagepoint App(s) when you complete and submit the sign-up form for the Wagepoint App(s) via the Website. Wagepoint reserves the right to reject your sign-up form, in its sole and absolute discretion.

You agree to use the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services only for the purposes that they were intended and only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Services are provided to you on the strict condition that they are used solely for your own internal business use and not for re-sale or for any use that would constitute providing a service for third parties, unless agreed to in writing.

Wagepoint may, without notice or liability, limit the geographic locations or jurisdictions where some or all of the Services may be available; add, discontinue or revise any aspect, mode or design of the Wagepoint App(s) or the Services, which include but are not limited to the scope of service, time of service, or to the software required for access to the Services. If any such additions or revisions result in a failure of, or error, omission, defect, deficiency, delay causing downtime, or inability of you to access the Services for any length of time, including as a result of the permanent termination of the Services, you acknowledge, with no prejudice to the foregoing, and agree that the only remedy for any error, omission, defect, deficiency, delay or other failure of the Wagepoint App(s) or the Services whatsoever is to discontinue using the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services.

Wagepoint accepts no responsibility for the accuracy of any information, data, documents or materials entered into or created using the Wagepoint App(s) or the Services except as otherwise set out herein. The input, posting or uploading of any information and the storage of any information, data, documents or materials by us does not constitute our endorsement or warranty as to the compliance of such information or materials with applicable privacy legislation, or to the accuracy, timeliness, materiality, completeness, or reliability of such information or materials.

The Services may include Wagepoint making bank deposits, filing tax returns, paying tax remittances on your behalf, tracking and calculating hours for hourly employees, and tracking paid time off for employees. Wagepoint works with financial and government institutions for the purpose of providing the Payroll Services. However, Wagepoint does not review information provided by you or any third party for any purpose, including but not limited to accuracy. It is entirely your responsibility to ensure the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of any information required by us or any third party service providers in connection with any of the Services.

In the case of the Payroll Services, you are responsible for reviewing all withdrawals, direct deposits, paychecks and reports prepared by Wagepoint for completeness, validity and accuracy according to your records and you agree to notify Wagepoint immediately of any discrepancies promptly after receipt of any reports and payroll information from Wagepoint.

For the Payroll Services, you will provide accurate account numbers, remittance frequency and all other information required from time to time to permit accurate and timely statutory tax remittance by Wagepoint. You will be responsible for updating the Wagepoint App(s) immediately with any changes to the frequency with which Wagepoint must make its statutory remittances. You will continue to receive, review and be the contact for all correspondence and all other communications with the taxing authorities, however Wagepoint may be authorized to discuss matters relating to remittance of your source deductions with such taxing authorities. Wagepoint will implement, at no cost to you, programming changes to Wagepoint’s core payroll system necessary to ensure compliance with laws and regulations pertaining to Payroll gross-to-net calculations. However, you will be responsible for monitoring legal developments specifically applicable to the operation of your business, interpreting applicable laws and regulations, determining the requirements for compliance with such laws and regulations, and identifying any changes required to your internal business rules.

Wagepoint makes every commercially reasonable effort to accurately calculate federal, state and/or provincial payroll taxes as part of the Payroll Services. In the event such calculations are incorrect and proved to be directly due to Wagepoint’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct and such error results in a penalty, Wagepoint will pay the penalty in full. However, you must provide Wagepoint with the penalty notice received from the taxing authority within 30 days of the date of the first notice. The penalty must be the direct result of Wagepoint’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct and not the result of incorrect data provided by you or otherwise resulting from your acts or omissions. The penalty must apply to a time period during which you were using the Payroll Services. You are responsible for any unpaid taxes, fees and interest charges due as a result of the penalty notice.

Your Wagepoint Account

If you register an account for the use of the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services (an “Account”), you agree, and represent and warrant, that you have provided us with true, current, complete and accurate information requested in the registration form and from time to time in connection with your use of the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services. As a part of your subscription to the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services, you will select a user name and password. It is your responsibility to keep this information and other Account details required in connection with your use of the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services (specifically employee information and banking details) confidential and up-to-date. Your subscription to the Wagepoint App(s) and the Services constitutes your express consent for us to use any personal information which you provide us in such registration for the purposes set out in our Privacy Policy and for all uses ancillary thereto for which your consent may reasonably be implied.

If you are creating an Account on behalf of a business, you must provide us with the business contact information of at least one other person who works at the business. In case you leave the business and Wagepoint is contacted by your business’s principal contacts, we may be required to provide access to the Account. You agree to hold harmless and release Wagepoint from any liability if we do so.

You hereby represent and warrant to us that you have obtained all consents necessary in your jurisdiction to provide us with the information we require to provide the Payroll Services, Track and/or Luna services, as applicable, to you. In particular, this includes (but is not limited to) consent to access your employees’ bank accounts to process direct deposits of payments, as well as to debit overpayments and payment errors. You expressly authorize Wagepoint to process such deposits and debits as required from time to time and you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Wagepoint, its affiliates and subsidiaries, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors and agents (collectively, the “Wagepoint Parties”) against any damages, losses or claims arising in respect of payroll processes and access to employee accounts (excepting fraud, wilful neglect, or manifest error by Wagepoint Parties).

You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of the Account. You agree to hold harmless and release the Wagepoint Parties from any loss or liability whatsoever that you may incur as a result of someone other than you using your username, password or Account, either with or without your knowledge. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Wagepoint Parties for any damages, third party claims or liabilities whatsoever that we may incur as a result of activities that occur on or through your Account, whether or not you were directly or personally responsible.

Payroll Funds

You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of the Account. You agree to hold harmless and release the Wagepoint Parties from any loss or liability whatsoever that you may incur as a result of someone other than you using your username, password or Account, either with or without your knowledge. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Wagepoint Parties for any damages, third party claims or liabilities whatsoever that we may incur as a result of activities that occur on or through your Account, whether or not you were directly or personally responsible.

You acknowledge that, if Payroll Funds are returned for insufficient funds, you may forfeit all future direct deposit or pre-authorized payment service privileges with Wagepoint. In the event that Wagepoint receives an insufficient funds notice from the bank related to your account, and Payments have already been delivered to your employees, you agree that Wagepoint has the right to offset any of your Payroll Funds already held by Wagepoint for other purposes (for example, for remittances and statutory deductions) against any unrecovered insufficient funds. Wagepoint reserves the right to seek all available remedies at law and in equity against you, and against your employees, in order to recover any such funds from your employees.

During any period in which you are utilizing pre-authorized payment services, you hereby agree to sign an authorization in favour of Wagepoint to debit your bank account for all amounts owing to Wagepoint for service fees and applicable taxes and you agree to maintain sufficient funds in your bank account within the deadline established by Wagepoint to satisfy the collection of Payroll Funds. Wagepoint will exercise all reasonable efforts to forward a statement of account to support any debit against your account in advance of any scheduled payroll disbursements.

You hereby consent to Wagepoint conducting credit investigations from time to time at Wagepoint's discretion, including such requests for and exchange of information to and from consumer reporting agencies or credit grantors as it may require to approve and maintain funding arrangements to be granted by Wagepoint in relation to the Services, and to provide payment history information to such agencies.

The principal amount of the funds (“Payroll Funds”) received from you in the account designated by Wagepoint (the “Payroll Account”) will at all times be held by Wagepoint or a third party appointed by Wagepoint, and references to Wagepoint in these Terms include any such third party. Wagepoint may commingle your Payroll Funds with the Payroll Funds of other clients of Wagepoint or other Wagepoint-administered funds of a similar type. Payments in respect of wages to your employees, statutory remittances, and other third party payments as agreed to by you and Wagepoint (the “Payments”) will be processed, as you direct, by way of direct deposits. Wagepoint shall not be obliged to release any payroll documents or to make or honour any Payments until it has received confirmation that your financial institution upon which the Payroll Funds have been drawn has irrevocably honoured such request for advance of funds. You agree to immediately notify Wagepoint of any deterioration in your financial condition that would likely jeopardize your ability to provide cleared Payroll Funds to Wagepoint.

You acknowledge that Wagepoint is entitled to invest Payroll Funds held in the Payroll Account in accordance with the investment guidelines established from time to time by Wagepoint, and that Wagepoint, in its own capacity, is entitled to all income and gains derived or realized from such investments and is not accountable to you, your employees, or any other person for such income or gains. ALL AMOUNTS EARNED ON SUCH PAYROLL FUNDS HELD IN THE PAYROLL ACCOUNT WILL BE FOR THE SOLE ACCOUNT OF WAGEPOINT. Wagepoint is entitled to pledge such investments for borrowings to facilitate the Payments, rather than converting the investments into cash. Wagepoint shall indemnify and save you harmless from and against any loss of any portion of the principal amount of the Payroll Funds (including any losses of principal resulting from the investment of the Payroll Funds) caused by Wagepoint, while the Payroll Funds are held in the Payroll Account, to the extent such Payroll Funds were actually and irrevocably received in the Payroll Account.
