(a) the Customer fails to pay any Fees when due;

Upon any suspension of the Services, the Customer’s right to access and use the Services shall be temporarily restricted to the extent determined by Tiquo.

Upon termination or expiry of this Agreement for any reason, the licence granted under this Clause 4 shall automatically and immediately terminate, and the Customer shall cease all access to and use of the Services.

The Customer shall not, and shall procure that its Authorised Users do not, access or use the Services except strictly in accordance with the licence granted under Clause 4 and the terms of this Agreement.

Any use of the Services outside the scope of the permitted use set out in Clause 4 shall constitute unauthorised use and a breach of this Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of Clause 5.1, the Customer shall not, whether directly or indirectly, and whether alone or in combination with any third party:

(a) copy, reproduce, distribute, publish, display, transmit, or otherwise make available the Services or any part thereof, other than as expressly permitted under this Agreement;

The Customer further acknowledges that unauthorised access to or use of such proprietary elements may cause significant commercial harm to Tiquo which may not be capable of being fully compensated by damages.

(b) terminate this Agreement in accordance with Clause 9; and

The Customer acknowledges that the Services depend on external factors outside Tiquo’s control, including internet connectivity, hardware, operating systems, and third-party services such as payment processors and integration partners.

6.6 Backups and data retention

6.10 Fiscal, tax, and transaction reporting responsibilities

The Customer is solely responsible for compliance with all fiscal, tax, invoicing, cash register, receipt, and transaction reporting obligations applicable to its business in every jurisdiction in which it operates, including obligations to:

(a) issue fiscally compliant receipts, invoices, or equivalent documents to End-Users and counterparties;

Tiquo does not warrant that any such functionality or integration will:

(a) cover all jurisdictions, transaction types, or regulatory regimes applicable to the Customer;

(b) remain continuously available, supported, or up-to-date with changes in Applicable Law;

(d) relieve the Customer of any underlying fiscal, tax, invoicing, or reporting obligation.

The accuracy, completeness, and lawfulness of data submitted to any fiscal or tax system via the Services is the sole responsibility of the Customer. Tiquo acts solely as a conduit for transmitting data provided by the Customer and does not verify, validate, or endorse the content of such data.

The Customer shall indemnify Tiquo against any losses, penalties, fines, interest, or liabilities arising from (i) the Customer’s failure to comply with fiscal, tax, or transaction reporting obligations; or (ii) inaccurate, incomplete, or untimely data submitted by the Customer through any fiscal, tax, or transaction reporting functionality of the Services.

7. FEES, BILLING, NON-PAYMENT, AND SET-OFF

7.1 Fees and pricing structure

In consideration for access to and use of the Services, the Customer shall pay the Fees in accordance with this Agreement.

The Fees consist of:

(a) Subscription Fees, charged on a recurring monthly basis in advance and calculated per Sublocation; and

(b) Card Processing Fees, charged on a transactional basis in respect of payments processed through the Services.

7.2 Billing cycle and payment method

Subscription Fees are payable monthly in advance and shall be due at the beginning of each billing period.

The Customer authorises Tiquo, and any payment processor acting on Tiquo’s behalf, to charge or deduct applicable Fees using the payment method on file.

The Customer shall ensure that valid and up-to-date payment details are maintained at all times.

7.3 Taxes

All Fees are exclusive of VAT or similar taxes, which shall be payable by the Customer where applicable. Where the Customer is liable to account for such taxes under reverse charge or equivalent mechanisms, the Customer shall do so in accordance with Applicable Law.

7.4 Non-payment and debt characterisation

Any Subscription Fees not paid when due shall constitute a contractual debt owed by the Customer to Tiquo.

A dispute relating to Fees shall not relieve the Customer of its obligation to pay undisputed amounts.

7.5 Set-off and recovery of unpaid amounts

Tiquo may recover unpaid Subscription Fees by deducting or setting off such amounts against Card Processing Fees, settlement amounts, or other transaction proceeds payable to the Customer.

Where reasonably practicable, Tiquo shall provide the Customer with at least five (5) Business Days' notice before exercising this right, except where immediate action is required to protect Tiquo's interests.

The Customer expressly authorises such deduction and acknowledges that this mechanism forms an essential part of the commercial structure of the Services.

7.6 Suspension for non-payment

Where Fees remain unpaid, Tiquo may suspend access to the Services without relieving the Customer of its payment obligations.

7.7 Termination for persistent non-payment

If non-payment persists following suspension, Tiquo may terminate this Agreement in accordance with Clause 9.

7.8 No refunds

Except as required by Applicable Law, Fees paid are non-refundable.

Where the Customer cancels during a billing period, access continues until the end of the paid period, with no refund or credit.

7.9 Payment processing

Where the Services include payment processing functionality:

(a) payments are processed through Tiquo's third-party payment service provider (Stripe);

(b) Card Processing Fees apply to payments processed through the Services as set out in the pricing information provided to the Customer;

(i) process payments on the Customer's behalf;

(ii) hold funds temporarily pending settlement; and

(iii) remit funds to the Customer's designated account in accordance with the agreed settlement schedule;

(d) settlement timing and procedures are as notified to the Customer during onboarding or as otherwise agreed;

(e) The Customer is responsible for chargeback and refund handling in relation to transactions with its own End-Users;

(f) Tiquo may deduct any amounts owed by the Customer from settlement amounts or Card Processing Fees owed to the Customer, in accordance with Clause 7.5 and subject to the notice provisions set out therein; and

(g) The Customer acknowledges that payment processing is dependent on third-party services and Tiquo shall not be liable for delays or failures attributable to such third parties.

7.10 Subscription Fee adjustments - Launch and Scale plans

Where the Customer is subscribed to a Launch or Scale plan, Tiquo shall not increase the Subscription Fees applicable to that Customer by more than the CPI Rate per annum, calculated from the date on which the Customer first subscribed to the applicable plan (or, where applicable, from the date on which the most recent Subscription Fee adjustment took effect).

Tiquo shall provide the Customer with at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of any increase to Subscription Fees under this Clause 7.10, specifying the new Subscription Fee and the CPI Rate applied.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 7.10 applies only to Subscription Fees during any period in which the Customer is paying the standard (non-discounted) rate. The treatment of Subscription Fees following the expiry of a Discount Period is governed by Clause 7.12.

7.11 Subscription Fee adjustments - Enterprise plans

Where the Customer is subscribed to an Enterprise plan with an agreed Lock-in Period, the Subscription Fees shall remain fixed for the duration of the Lock-in Period.

Upon expiry of the Lock-in Period, Tiquo may adjust the Subscription Fees for the Enterprise plan. Tiquo shall provide the Customer with at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of any such adjustment, specifying the new Subscription Fees.

Where the parties agree to a renewal Lock-in Period, the adjusted Subscription Fees shall apply for the duration of that renewal period.

7.12 Expiry of Discount Periods

Where a Customer on a Launch or Scale plan is receiving a reduced Subscription Fee during a Discount Period, the CPI Rate cap set out in Clause 7.10 shall apply to increases during the Discount Period.

Upon expiry of the Discount Period, Tiquo may adjust the Subscription Fees to the then-current standard pricing for the applicable plan as published on Tiquo's pricing pages or as otherwise notified to the Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, the adjusted pricing following expiry of a Discount Period is not limited by the CPI Rate cap in Clause 7.10 and may reflect any price changes that occurred during the Discount Period.

By way of example only: if a Customer subscribes to a Scale plan at a discounted rate of £300 per month for a two-year Discount Period, and during that period the standard Scale plan pricing increases to £600 per month for new customers, the Customer's Subscription Fee may be adjusted to £600 per month upon expiry of the Discount Period. Following such adjustment, the CPI Rate cap in Clause 7.10 shall apply to subsequent increases from that adjusted rate.

Tiquo shall provide the Customer with at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice before any adjustment under this Clause 7.12 takes effect.

7.13 Card Processing Fee adjustment for unpaid Subscription Fees

Where Subscription Fees remain unpaid when due, Tiquo may automatically adjust the Card Processing Fees applied to the Customer's transactions to recover the outstanding Subscription Fee amounts. Such adjustment shall take effect without prior notice and is in addition to Tiquo's rights under Clauses 7.5 and 7.6.

Upon payment in full of all outstanding Subscription Fees for the relevant period, Tiquo shall refund to the Customer the additional Card Processing Fees charged under this Clause 7.13 (being the amount by which the adjusted Card Processing Fees exceeded the Card Processing Fees that would otherwise have applied). Refunds shall be applied as a credit against future Card Processing Fees or paid directly to the Customer, at Tiquo's discretion, within fourteen (14) Business Days of receipt of the outstanding Subscription Fees.

The Customer acknowledges that this adjustment mechanism forms part of the commercial structure of the Services and expressly authorises Tiquo to adjust Card Processing Fees in accordance with this Clause 7.13.

8. SERVICE AVAILABILITY, SUSPENSION, AND CONTINUITY

8.1 Service availability

Tiquo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Services available.

Availability commitments are governed exclusively by the Service Level Agreement.

8.2 Planned maintenance and changes

Tiquo may perform planned or emergency maintenance which may affect availability.

8.3 Suspension for breach, non-payment, or risk

Tiquo may suspend access for non-payment, breach, legal or regulatory risk, or to comply with law.

8.4 Effect of suspension

Suspension does not relieve the Customer of payment obligations and does not constitute termination.

8.5 Restoration of access

Restoration is at Tiquo’s discretion following resolution of the underlying issue.

8.6 Customer support

Customer support is available during the hours and through the channels specified in the Service Level Agreement. Tiquo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to support requests in a timely manner, with response times dependent on the nature and severity of the issue.

9. TERM, CANCELLATION, AND TERMINATION

9.1 Term

This Agreement operates on a monthly rolling basis with no minimum term.

9.2 Customer cancellation

The Customer may cancel at any time. Where Subscription Fees have been paid, access continues until the end of the paid billing period.

Tiquo may terminate for material breach, persistent non-payment, insolvency, or unacceptable risk.

9.4 Accrued rights

Termination is without prejudice to accrued rights or remedies.

9.5 Supplier notice period

9.6 Exceptions Clause

9.5 does not apply to, and shall not delay, termination or suspension by Tiquo under Clause 9.3 (material breach, persistent non-payment, insolvency, or unacceptable risk), Clause 8.3 (suspension for breach, non-payment, legal or regulatory risk), or Clause 17.4 (Sanctions and export controls), each of which may take effect on the notice (if any) specified in those clauses.

9.7 Transition assistance

During any notice period under Clause 9.5, Tiquo shall provide reasonable cooperation and support to facilitate an orderly transition of the Customer's data, integrations, and Services to an alternative provider, in accordance with the Data Processing Addendum.
