Instant payouts are capped at £1,000 per day unless the Merchant has agreed a higher amount with Sync™. Funds above the cap will pay out the next business day.
- Tipping – Tips/Gratuities will be included in the Overall Transaction Value settled by the Payment Processor to the Merchant. It is the Merchant’s responsibility for distributing the gratuities between their staff.
- Refunds – Transaction fees are non-refundable so all refunds are net of the initial transaction fee.
- Disputes & Chargebacks – The Merchant (Account Owner) is responsible for the disputed amount plus a £20 dispute admin fee. Sync™ will submit all evidence provided by the Merchant to challenge the dispute on behalf of the Merchant.
- Suspected fraud – Highly suspicious payment activity will result in payouts being frozen for 120 days (to allow for any customer disputes /chargebacks to be responded to before funds are paid out) and an additional 5% review fee. This fee will be applied to all funds paid out after 120 days.
- Territory – You can only use Sync™ in the territory where you signed up to Sync™. For example, if you created your Sync™ account in the UK, you can only use Sync™ for payments in the UK and in £ (GBP). You can also only connect a bank account that’s in the country where you signed up.
- Settlement – Transactions are settled net of fees in the Payout Currency specified in this Fee Schedule. Fees are deducted automatically from the settlement funds paid into the Merchant’s bank account and are paid directly to Sync™ by the Payment Processor. The Merchant acknowledges and agrees to the formation of a separate contract with the Payment Processor.
- Foreign exchange – An additional fee of 2% of the Overall Transaction Value in the payout currency is payable by the Merchant on transactions made in a currency that is different to the payout currency.
- Sync™ Rewards – Sync™ Rewards are fee-free transactions offered at the discretion of Sync™.
