3. GENERALIDADES

3.1. MODELO AGREGADOR

Bajo esta modalidad, INNOVA TUS PAGOS actuará como facilitador y/o intermediario de pagos mediante su plataforma tecnológica operativa para el traspaso de los dineros entre el SUBCOMERCIO y los USUARIOS por medio de tarjetas de crédito, tarjetas débito PSE o pagos en efectivo a través de los diferentes convenios que se encuentren activos al momento de realizar los pagos. El SUBCOMERCIO en esta modalidad no requiere ningún convenio financiero, excepto una cuenta bancaria receptora de los fondos. En este modelo, el dinero proveniente del pago que haga el USUARIO será depositado primeramente en una cuenta bancaria de INNOVA TUS PAGOS, donde permanecerá hasta la fecha de dispersión acordada con el SUBCOMERCIO.

El SUBCOMERCIO debe entender que durante el tiempo que permanezca el dinero en las cuentas de INNOVA TUS PAGOS, este no será destinado a ninguna operación que genere rendimientos financieros. INNOVA TUS PAGOS no es una entidad vigilada por la Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia y el modelo agregador no permite bajo ninguna circunstancia que se presente este tratamiento de dineros de terceros.

3.2. MODELO GATEWAY

En este modelo, INNOVA TUS PAGOS no actúa como intermediario, sino como procesador del pago. Por lo cual, el dinero que transfiera el USUARIO será depositado directamente en la cuenta del SUBCOMERCIO. Para habilitar este servicio, el SUBCOMERCIO debe cumplir con los siguientes documentos y requisitos:

3.2.1. Procesamiento de transacciones a través de tarjeta de crédito:
  • Código Único de venta no presente GATEWAY.
  • Deberá habilitar las franquicias directamente con el banco donde tenga la cuenta y el Código Único GATEWAY.
  • Deberá remitir el certificado de la cuenta bancaria asociada al Código Único GATEWAY.
3.2.2. Procesamiento de transacciones a través de PSE:
  • El SUBCOMERCIO deberá estar registrado en el portal ACH.
  • El SUBCOMERCIO deberá remitir el service code.
  • El SUBCOMERCIO deberá remitir el entity code.
  • El SUBCOMERCIO deberá asignar a INNOVA TUS PAGOS como su pasarela de pagos en ACH.

3.3. DISPOSICIONES GENERALES SOBRE LOS MODELOS

Frente a los modelos de negocio, el SUBCOMERCIO debe entender que se pueden presentar las siguientes condiciones:

  • The SUB-MERCHANT may enable both the AGGREGATOR and GATEWAY models simultaneously.
  • Si el SUBCOMERCIO solicita la habilitación del modelo GATEWAY sin cumplir con todos los requisitos, las transacciones podrán realizarse, pero estas se manejarán bajo los parámetros y costos del modelo AGREGADOR hasta que se cumplan la totalidad de requisitos exigidos por el modelo GATEWAY.

The SUB-MERCHANT understands and accepts that the activation of services under both the AGGREGATOR and GATEWAY models requires approval from financial institutions, and therefore, the implementation of the service may take up to forty-five (45) days.

3.4. DISPONIBILIDAD DE LOS SERVICIOS

Los servicios ofrecidos serán los que se encuentren disponibles al momento de realizar pagos en la plataforma tecnológica o las que se puedan implementar a futuro de manera permanente. Esto no impide que INNOVA TUS PAGOS suspenda el uso temporalmente de la plataforma por causas derivadas de mantenimiento y actualización del software, situación que será informada diligentemente al SUBCOMERCIO, salvo que esta se encuentre sometida a una situación de fuerza mayor o caso fortuito que impida su comunicación.

INNOVA TUS PAGOS no se hace responsable por la disponibilidad o posibles fallas que puedan presentar las entidades bancarias, centros de autorización y demás entidades que participen en la plataforma o en el modelo de pagos electrónicos.

3.5. PÁGINA WEB DEL SUBCOMERCIO

Independientemente del proveedor de servicios de web hosting utilizado por el SUBCOMERCIO, todas las transacciones y mensajes de datos originados desde su web serán atribuidos por INNOVA TUS PAGOS y no podrán ser repudiados por este.

6. USO DE LA PLATAFORMA Y ENTREGA DE CLAVES

6.1. USUARIO Y CONTRASEÑAS

INNOVA TUS PAGOS habilitará una cuenta de pruebas con la dirección de correo electrónico principal que el SUBCOMERCIO hubiere allegado en el pre-registro. Así mismo, la llave de activación será el abonado telefónico celular principal. Una vez el SUBCOMERCIO complete el proceso de registro y sea activado por INNOVA TUS PAGOS, podrá realizar el cambio de llaves de activación.
Es responsabilidad del SUBCOMERCIO el manejo, custodia y cuidado de las claves para el acceso a su MERCHANT de cliente, por lo que cualquier uso de la plataforma o transacción realizada bajo su SUBCOMERCIO se presume veraz y autorizada. A partir de este momento, INNOVA TUS PAGOS queda exento de cualquier responsabilidad por los movimientos realizados desde su MERCHANT de cliente.

6.2. RESTABLECIMIENTO DE CONTRASEÑAS

Está facultado para hacer la solicitud de restablecimiento de contraseña tan solo el SUBCOMERCIO o su representante legal, mediante la casilla de “restablecer contraseña”.
Este restablecimiento se realiza únicamente al correo electrónico registrado. Se recomienda que, si el SUBCOMERCIO piensa cambiar la contraseña y los datos ingresados en el registro, primero actualice la información y luego proceda con el cambio de contraseña.

6.3. CONCILIACIÓN DE FONDOS

El SUBCOMERCIO y INNOVA TUS PAGOS acuerdan mediante este acuerdo que la conciliación de los fondos que perciba el SUBCOMERCIO por cuenta de los productos y servicios adquiridos por los USUARIOS en sus plataformas web de ventas asociadas a la plataforma tecnológica de pagos, se realizará los viernes de cada semana. En caso de que este día llegara a coincidir con una fecha festiva o día no hábil, la conciliación se realizará el día hábil siguiente.

6.4. MANEJO DE FONDOS

INNOVA TUS PAGOS se compromete a utilizar los fondos del USUARIO con la instrucción estricta establecida por este. INNOVA TUS PAGOS no está obligado a cumplir con las obligaciones tributarias o cambiarias que surjan del negocio jurídico entre el SUBCOMERCIO y el USUARIO.

6.5. USO DE FONDOS

INNOVA TUS PAGOS no es una entidad financiera ni una empresa captadora de dinero. En consecuencia, los saldos que ingresen a la cuenta temporal de INNOVA TUS PAGOS no generarán intereses a favor de los SUBCOMERCIOS. Dichas sumas estarán disponibles para el SUBCOMERCIO una vez el dinero se vea reflejado en la cuenta y de acuerdo con las políticas y condiciones de INNOVA TUS PAGOS.

6.6. DISPERSIÓN DE FONDOS

INNOVA TUS PAGOS transferirá los fondos recaudados a la cuenta indicada y/o asociada en las fechas acordadas con el SUBCOMERCIO. En caso de que este requiera el retiro de fondos fuera de las fechas establecidas, comprende que dicha transacción puede generar un costo adicional y que está dispuesto a asumirlo.
La transferencia de fondos no podrá realizarse si el SUBCOMERCIO no cuenta con al menos DOSCIENTOS CINCUENTA MIL PESOS ($250.000.00) M/CTE en la cuenta habilitada por INNOVA TUS PAGOS.

6.7. AUTENTICIDAD DE LAS TRANSACCIONES Y FRAUDE

Se entiende que la plataforma es un sistema de información para recopilar y confirmar datos, que el propietario de la transacción es el USUARIO y que INNOVA TUS PAGOS no es una entidad que suministre medios de pago. Por lo tanto, INNOVA TUS PAGOS no asume responsabilidad alguna por la autenticidad de las transacciones que se efectúen a través de la plataforma, ni por la presencia de fraude en las transacciones.

INNOVA TUS PAGOS podrá habilitar en la plataforma transaccional un módulo de prevención del fraude, configurable según el perfil de cada SUBCOMERCIO. La habilitación de esta herramienta es un apoyo en la prevención del fraude y limitación de transacciones que cumplan con un perfil de riesgo. Sin embargo, el SUBCOMERCIO entiende que este módulo no previene la ocurrencia de posibles fraudes y se compromete a vigilar las transacciones que se lleven a cabo a través de su cuenta.
Por lo tanto, INNOVA TUS PAGOS no responderá por fraudes generados en las cuentas de los SUBCOMERCIOS.

6.8. RETENCIÓN DE FONDOS

Para mitigar el riesgo de fraude en las transacciones, INNOVA TUS PAGOS podrá realizar verificaciones y aplicar retenciones preventivas hasta por el 100% de los montos según la actividad económica del SUBCOMERCIO.

6.8.1. Actividades económicas con retención de hasta 240 días

13.        CARDHOLDER/PAYER/DONOR TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Regardless of how a SUB-MERCHANT connects to the PAYMENTS WAY services, they must make available on their website a space to publish their own terms and conditions for payers, including at least the following information regarding the payment gateway.

13.1. That the payer uses the payment system at their own account and risk.

13.2. That the payment processor does not guarantee the absence of fraud involving cardholder data.

13.3. That the payment processor is not responsible for the suitability, quality, quantity, distribution, or any other characteristics of the products or services offered by the SUB-MERCHANT.

13.4. That the payment processor does not guarantee the availability or timing of service functionality.

13.5. That PAYMENTS WAY is not responsible for additional charges or taxes arising from the relationship between the SUB-MERCHANT and the PAYER.

13.6. That PAYMENTS WAY is not responsible for any noncompliance with data processing obligations by the SUB-MERCHANT.

13.7. That the PAYER authorizes the payment processor to process personal data to prevent identity theft, send general information, and even marketing materials.

A SUB-MERCHANT that fails to incorporate the provisions above will assume all liability for personal data processing claims at their own risk, holding PAYMENTS WAY harmless from any claims from payers. In any case, the SUB-MERCHANT must:

13.8. Allow the payment facilitator to verify the terms and conditions containing the above statements.

13.9. Respond to any claims made by their PAYERS regarding data processing.

14.       RECURRING DEBITS

Recurring debits are an option that allows activation of the PAYMENTS WAY transactional platform in order to enable automatic and recurring debits at a given frequency to PAYERS or CARDHOLDERS who consent to the service, for the purpose of paying for products and/or services or simply making donations.

14.1. It is the obligation of the SUB-MERCHANT to obtain prior authorization by any means they deem appropriate for the execution of the automatic debit. This authorization may be requested by PAYMENTS WAY at any time during the contractual relationship.

14.2.The SUB-MERCHANT must clearly and comprehensibly inform the USER that they are enrolling in a recurring debit, including all relevant details (duration, amount, debit dates, etc.).

14.3.The SUB-MERCHANT shall pay PAYMENTS WAY the service fees for recurring debits.

14.4.PAYMENTS WAY is not responsible for the quantity or quality of products offered through recurring debits. Likewise, PAYMENTS WAY is not responsible for issuing donation certificates when transactions arise from this type of agreement.

14.5. The SUB-MERCHANT shall notify PAYMENTS WAY of the USER’s cancellation of the recurrence, indicating all necessary data (cardholder’s name, ID number, date of last debit, cardholder’s email) in order to stop debiting the registered account. This communication shall be sent to operaciones@paymentsway.co. The SUB-MERCHANT understands that cancellation of the debit may take up to five (5) business days, and therefore, any debit made during this period must be assumed by the SUB-MERCHANT.

14.6. The SUB-MERCHANT shall refund the USER any debit resulting from late or incorrect communication to PAYMENTS WAY regarding the cancellation of the automatic debit service.

14.7. PAYMENTS WAY shall honor chargebacks and reversals filed with the bank. The SUB-MERCHANT understands that PAYMENTS WAY is not responsible for any funds lost due to such requests and agrees to return the amount to PAYMENTS WAY. The gateway is authorized to deduct these amounts from future disbursements.

15.       TOKENIZATION AND FUTURE CHARGES

Tokenization and future charges is an option that allows activation of the PAYMENTS WAY transactional platform to store and process credit card transactions after a service has been provided. In this regard, the CARDHOLDER agrees that:

15.1. The SUB-MERCHANT with whom the transaction is being conducted may have this option enabled, allowing them to store the card and CARDHOLDER information for the purpose of tokenization and future charges.

15.2. The SUB-MERCHANT shall determine how long the CARDHOLDER's information is stored, but must always store it under proper standards.

15.3. The SUB-MERCHANT is solely responsible for the charges, quality, and quantity of the products and services processed under this feature. Any claims must be addressed directly by the CARDHOLDER to the SUB-MERCHANT through their authorized communication channels.

15.4. The SUB-MERCHANT shall inform the CARDHOLDER of the registration of the payment method via tokenization and the charges that result from its use.

16.5. The SUB-MERCHANT shall hold PAYMENTS WAY harmless from any type of claim arising from tokenization and future charges.

16.        GENERAL PROVISIONS ON CHARGEBACKS, REVERSALS, AND REFUNDS

For the purposes of this section, both the SUB-MERCHANT and the USER understand that:

16.1. A CHARGEBACK is a debit applied by the BANK to PAYMENTS WAY when the CARDHOLDER files a transaction cancellation request with the bank, citing fraud, unrecognized transactions, dissatisfaction with the product, among other reasons. PAYMENTS WAY is thus authorized to deduct the corresponding amount once the BANK processes the chargeback.

16.2.In accordance with Article 51 of Law 1481 of 2011 (Consumer Statute) and Decree 587 of 2016, the USER may request a REVERSAL from the issuing bank for a payment made via credit card or PSE within five (5) business days from the payment date, or when the USER was unaware of the transaction, in cases of fraud, unauthorized transactions, exercised right of withdrawal, non-delivery of the item, or when the product quality does not match what was described by the SUB-MERCHANT, including duplicate charges.

16.3.A REFUND is the return of money to the CARDHOLDER when PAYMENTS WAY requests transaction documentation marked as irregular and/or fraudulent, and the SUB-MERCHANT fails to provide it within eight (08) days after the gateway's notification.

16.4.When PAYMENTS WAY requests that a SUB-MERCHANT classify a transaction under the aforementioned standards, the SUB-MERCHANT must provide appropriate documentation to support the transaction before the bank.

30.     CONFIDENTIALITY

30.1.  Both PAYMENTS WAY and the SUBCOMMERCE shall maintain absolute confidentiality regarding the information provided between them that is marked as confidential, as well as information that by its nature should be understood as confidential, such as financial information, technical data, business processes, codes, programs, and other proprietary information of each of the Parties.

34.        ANNEXES

The following policies and guidelines are part of this contract and, therefore, must be strictly adhered to:

1.     NON-PROFIT ENTITY REGISTRATION POLICY

When the entity undergoing the registration process is a non-profit organization (ESAL), it understands that it must undergo a series of verifications that may extend the approval process beyond that for a SUBCOMMERCE that does not meet this condition. In this sense, the ESAL understands that:

1.1. The ESAL must, in accordance with PAYMENTS WAY’s internal policies, request a visit for review by the compliance department. PAYMENTS WAY staff will be able to request information regarding the ESAL’s need for payment services and may ask for additional supporting documents beyond those already registered during the registration process.

1.2. The visit process depends on the time in which the ESAL reserves the space through the means provided by PAYMENTS WAY, and the approval or rejection times are subject to the visit’s completion and the submission of any additional documentation.

1.3. The approval term for an ESAL will begin once the visit is completed.

1.4. If the ESAL has specific fiscal conditions that exempt it from paying taxes, it must inform PAYMENTS WAY according to section 9 of the PAYMENTS WAY terms and conditions.

1.5. The ESAL understands that activation on the platform to receive funds must occur once the banking entity issues the unique code (CU) based on the ESAL's identity.

1.6. Despite needing the CU, the ESAL can allow payment collection under the gateway’s CU during the time it takes to issue its own CU, with prior authorization from PAYMENTS WAY. In this regard, the ESAL understands and accepts:

1.6.1. The ESAL understands that if it conducts transactions under PAYMENTS WAY's CU, it will be subject to RETEICA, RETEFUENTE, or other charges that cannot be refunded to the ESAL's account, even if it is exempt from these.

1.6.2. These charges will cease once the ESAL has its own CU, and this information is replicated in the transaction console.

1.6.3. If the ESAL agrees with the terms stated in the previous paragraphs, it must clearly and expressly send an email to juridica@paymentsway.co stating its desire to continue receiving transactional charges even though it understands that until it obtains its own CU, deductions will be made that cannot be requested back.

1.6.4. The ESAL will hold PAYMENTS WAY harmless for any charges resulting from transactions conducted under the aggregator’s unique code.

2.    COMPLIANCE WITH ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING AND TERRORISM FINANCING REGULATIONS BY THE SUBCOMMERCE

In this document, the SUBCOMMERCE affirms that it complies with the general and specific regulations on Anti-Money Laundering, Terrorism Financing, and Financing of the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction, as applicable and according to its industry. Furthermore, it accepts:

2.1.  That it has at least basic mechanisms to prevent the commission of any crime in which the SUBCOMMERCE acts as an instrument for its execution.

2.2. That it will indemnify and hold PAYMENTS WAY harmless from any fines, damages, or losses suffered by the gateway due to non-compliance by the SUBCOMMERCE or the USER with the Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing regulations that are brought to its attention by the gateway.

2.3. That PAYMENTS WAY may cross-check any information it holds in its databases regarding the SUBCOMMERCE or the USER with public international and local lists of individuals investigated for Money Laundering, Terrorism Financing, and Financing the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction. If the investigation yields positive results, the necessary decisions will be made based on current regulations and PAYMENTS WAY’s SAGRILAFT prevention manual. All provisions and the obligations and rights derived from them related to Money Laundering, Terrorism Financing, and Financing the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction are substantial and will survive the termination of this contract.

2.4. That PAYMENTS WAY reserves the right to inform the SUBCOMMERCE of the type of finding and may terminate the contract upon simple notification of the termination of the contractual relationship based on a legal finding that prevents it from continuing the relationship.

2.5. The SUBCOMMERCE understands that a reference to a finding refers to the matching of a SUBCOMMERCE in binding lists (which leads to rejection or termination of the contract), restrictive lists (which leads to rejection or termination when the match is significant enough that the contractual relationship represents a risk to PAYMENTS WAY), or complementary lists (which leads to rejection or termination when the match is significant enough that the contractual relationship represents a risk to PAYMENTS WAY, according to the tools used by the gateway to conduct the SUBCOMMERCE’s evaluation). 

 

3.     ORIGIN AND DESTINATION OF FUNDS: THE SUBCOMMERCE AND THE USER

The SUBCOMMERCE and the USER declare under oath:

3.1.  That their income comes from lawful activities and is not intended to finance illicit activities, that they do not have a negative record in lists of anti-money laundering or terrorism financing, whether national or international, nor are they involved in either of the two categories of money laundering (conversion or movement), and therefore, they agree to be liable to the other party and third parties for any damages caused as a result of the falsity of this statement.

3.2. That their good name and reputation are key elements in the execution of the Agreement, which is why they agree that a sufficient reason to terminate it, without any indemnification to the non-breaching party, will be the inclusion of either party, its legal representatives, shareholders, partners, or directors in an investigation, report, police record, or judicial list by national or foreign authorities, on suspicion of involvement in money laundering, drug trafficking, human trafficking, pimping, child pornography, embezzlement, bribery, kidnapping, extortion, corruption, trafficking in influence, smuggling, affiliation with illegal armed organizations, or criminal organizations of any kind, trafficking in weapons, terrorism, crimes against humanity, or crimes against sexual liberty, integrity, and education, etc.

       For this purpose, they commit to complying with the legal requirements and obligations that apply to them, especially those relating to the prevention of money laundering and terrorism financing risks, including providing truthful and verifiable information and updating their institutional, commercial, and financial information when requested by PAYMENTS WAY.

3.3. The SUBCOMMERCE commits to implementing the measures required by the applicable regulations to prevent its               operations from being used, with or without its knowledge or consent, as instruments for the commission of any illicit activity described in current criminal law, both national and international, especially money laundering and terrorism financing or any of the crimes related to them.

For all purposes, "money laundering" refers to the maneuvers and procedures used to give the appearance of legality to money and goods derived from illicit activities. These procedures include disguising the true origin and ownership of funds. Generally, money laundering occurs through the transfer, transformation, conversion, or mixing of assets derived from illicit activities with legitimate funds, with the purpose of concealing their true nature. Illicit assets are those derived from any crime specified under Colombian criminal law.

4.      CHARGEBACK AND REVERSES POLICY

1.           CHARGEBACK.

         In this regard, it is the responsibility of the SUBCOMMERCE to ensure that this communication reaches the registered email, which may end up in the inbox, junk folder, or spam. Therefore, PAYMENTS WAY is not responsible if the SUBCOMMERCE does not notice the chargeback notification.

1.2.3. To reduce the application of chargebacks, the SUBCOMMERCE must have the following available information, as applicable:

1.2.3.4. Any other documents that PAYMENTS WAY may require.

1.2.4. The SUBCOMMERCE must submit the supporting documents within four (04) business days from the notification, whether from PAYMENTS WAY or the bank, under penalty of the application of the chargeback that prevents any recourse.

2.1.1.  When the SUBCOMMERCE’s user has been a victim of fraud.

2.1.2. When PAYMENTS WAY suspects a transaction is fraudulent, in which case it will contact the SUBCOMMERCE to request supporting documents and validate the appropriateness of the reverse.

2.2.1.1.  The SUBCOMMERCE may return the money from the MERCHANT CONSOLE up to twenty-four (24) hours after the transaction is completed. Once this period has passed, the SUBCOMMERCE must proceed as outlined in the next section.

2.2.1.2. The SUBCOMMERCE must request the reverse via email to the address operaciones@paymentsway.co providing the necessary details to identify the transaction to be REVERSED, such as (i) transaction number, (ii) transaction date, (iii) transaction amount, and (iv) reverse amount. 

2.2.2. The SUBCOMMERCE understands that when the gateway processes the reverse, it is subject to the times determined by the financial entities.

2.2.3. Under no circumstances will REVERSES be processed for transactions older than ninety (90) calendar days from the time of the request.

3.3.  PAYMENTS WAY is not responsible for the information received through the SUBCOMMERCE as evidence, and this information will be presumed truthful and legal, without prejudice to any legal actions that PAYMENTS WAY or the issuing bank may take against the SUBCOMMERCE if false or altered information is provided to support a purchase and handle such disputes.

3.4. If PAYMENTS WAY is unable to recover the amounts debited for chargebacks or reversals from PAYMENTS WAY's account, the SUBCOMMERCE will be considered a DEBTOR to PAYMENTS WAY for the amounts debited from the company's account for addressing the chargebacks or reversals. These amounts must be reimbursed by the SUBCOMMERCE immediately or within a maximum period of five (05) days after the notification of the discrepancy to the SUBCOMMERCE.

3.5. PAYMENTS WAY may place the SUBCOMMERCE in default for the days it takes to settle the pending payments to PAYMENTS WAY. This default may be subject to interest at the highest rate allowed by Colombian law at the time.
