The customer must then register via the Application and open an account in their name. Accounts can be created by any natural person who has full legal capacity and a bank card in their name, and any legal entity whose legal representative has full legal capacity and has a bank card in its name. Natural persons or legal entities can only open one account in their name via the Application. Creation of an account implies full acceptance of the present General Terms, including Appendix 1 which provides the general terms and practical details of Stripe, which is confirmed by clicking on Accept when creating the account. The General Terms are made available to the Customer when the account is created, before finalising the account and the aforementioned acceptance.

 

Users ‘depositers’ do not need to create a Deposit Place account to use the Service. They must nevertheless accept the General Terms when they accept a Deposit agreement conditions.

 The User can print or save the General Terms after reading them. The Company reserves the right to change the General Terms at any time.

 In this case, the Company will inform the customers when they connect to the Application and ask them to confirm their acceptance of the new General Terms. The Customers will be informed when they next request a Deposit. Users who accept the General Terms subject to reservations, or do not accept the General Terms, cannot access the Application or use the Service.

 When creating the account, the customer must provide all of the information indicated as compulsory, and if necessary the related documentary evidence. In any case, the Customer undertakes to provide accurate information and update it regularly. This information remains confidential, apart from the information (i) that may be required by Stripe to open a Stripe account, in accordance with the conditions of Stripe included in Appendix 1, (ii) that the Customer has deliberately chosen to make visible and (iii) that the Customer is required to make visible in accordance with the law.

The Deposit Place account is personal to each Customer, and the Customer cannot on any account transfer it to a third party.

In this case, the Company will request a bank pre-authorisation for a total of one (1) pound in order to check that the Customer’s card actually belongs to him.

 Once the customer’s Deposit Place account has been opened, the Customer can ask the Company at any time to issue a payment link. The Customer can make a payment link available to each user that is specific to the Customer, to enable the Customer to accept a Deposit.

 Since the Service is based on the use of Stripe, the Customer is expressly informed and accepts that the Deposit Place will use the electronic purse opened in their name, managed by Stripe, an approved electronic money institution, San Francisco (HQ), CA United States 510 Townsend St, San Francisco. The Customers accept the general terms and practical details of Stripe (Appendix 1) by ticking a box when they open their DEPOSIT PLACE account.

The opening of the Deposit Place account by the Customer is confirmed by an email sent by the Company to the Customer. Moreover, Deposit Place reserves the right to ask the Customer at its discretion, for any documents and information that it considers necessary in order to complete the registration, and creation of the account may be dependent on receipt of these documents and information.

Acceptance or Refusal of a Deposit

 

Users who receive a Deposit request sent to them will receive an email or SMS containing the information relating to the Deposit and a link enabling them to accept it within a specific time limit. The email or SMS will also contain a link enabling them to read, download and print out the General Terms and if necessary the Customers general terms of sale or service, before accepting the Deposit. In any case, the Customer can accept or refuse the Deposit Request:

 

a/ Acceptance of the Deposit:

 

If the user wishes to accept the Deposit, they must click on the link included in the email or SMS he has received.

 

The user must then (i) approve all of the characteristics of the proposed transaction and the Total Amount of the Deposit, (ii) indicate at least his surname, first name and all of the information expressly requested by Stripe, (iii) enter his bank card number, and after reading them, (iv) accept these General Terms and the Customers general terms of sale or service, by ticking the appropriate box.

 

The use of certain bank cards does not make it possible to provide the bank guarantee required to use the Service. In this case, to enable Customers to finalise acceptance of the Deposit, they can select the following option: Customers can agree to the actual and immediate transfer of the total amount of the Deposit concerned. They will then be immediately debited the total amount, as well as, where appropriate, the related Deposit Place Service Charges which will be notified to them when they accept the Deposit.

 

The Company will send a Deposit acceptance confirmation email to inform both concerned.

 

In the event of acceptance of the Deposit, both the customer and user concerned will no longer be able to question the characteristics of the proposed transaction: from then on the user and customers are contractually bound to carry out the transaction which is shown as “Active” in the Application: the Deposit remains effective throughout the Period of Validity.

 

Acceptance of the Deposit means that the Deposit Place Service Charges must be paid to the Company by the Customer, however, payment will be made at the end of each calendar month. The Deposit Place Service Charges may be paid by direct debit from the bank card or debited from the bank account concerned.

 

Each time a Deposit is accepted, the Company guarantees the customers that it will carry out the following checks:

 

  • Check of the validity of the bank card used by the Customer, to limit the use of stolen or lost cards;

The Company undertakes to make every effort to carry out the controls and checks specified above. By express agreement, these commitments are solely an obligation of best efforts. The Company does not provide any guarantee concerning the result of these controls and checks and cannot be held liable in the event of non-payment by the user.

 

 

Refusal of the Deposit:

 

The Deposit request may not be accepted by the user if he decides that the characteristics of the Deposit do not meet his expectations, or if he does not accept these General Terms or the customer’s terms of sale or service. In this case, the Deposit is deemed to have been “refused” and the user must not fill in the form that opens after clicking on the link included in the SMS or email received: the user must not give his bank card number or accept the General Terms.

 

Furthermore, the Deposit Request is automatically deemed to be “refused” at the end of the acceptance period, if it is not expressly accepted by the user.

 

In the event of a refusal of a Deposit request, the Company immediately informs the customer. The transaction concerned is then abandoned. The Deposit Place Service Charges are not due.

 

c/ Acceptance of the Deposit via the permalink:

 

The customer can ask the Company to create a Permalink at any time. The customer must inform the Company of the characteristics of the required permalink.

 

The Company will configure the permalink in accordance with the characteristics notified by the Supplier, and send the permalink to the user, indicating the DEPOSIT PLACE Service Charges which will nevertheless remain payable by the Customer

 

The customers make the permalink available to their users by email, SMS or on their website etc.

 

The Customer can accept the deposit by clicking on the permalink within a fixed time limit (maximum one year). The permalink enables the Customer to read, download and print out the General Terms and if necessary the Supplier’s general terms of sale or service, before accepting the Deposit. In any case, the Customer can accept or refuse the Deposit.

As soon as the user’s deposit payment is made, Deposit Place’s Service Charges apply.

 

Customers who click on the permalink must then (i) approve all of the characteristics of the proposed transaction and the Total Amount of the Deposit, (ii) indicate at least their surname, first name, email address, phone number and all of the information expressly requested by Stripe, (iii) enter their bank card number, and (iv) after reading them, accept these General Terms and the customer’s general terms of sale or service, by ticking the appropriate box.

 

The Customer will receive confirmation of acceptance of the Deposit by email and will be sent the information provided by the user (surname, first name, email address, phone number).

 

The permalink can be cancelled by the Company at the Customers request or by the decision of the Company at any time in the event of failure to comply with the GTS.

 

The use of certain bank cards does not make it possible to provide the bank guarantee required to use the Service. In this case, to enable Customers to finalise acceptance of the deposit, they can select the following option: users can authorise the immediate debit of the total price of the deposit concerned and will be immediately debited that amount, as well as the related Service Charges which will be notified to them when they accept the deposit.

 

The Company will send a deposit acceptance confirmation email to inform both of the Users concerned.

 

In the event of acceptance of the deposit, both of the Users concerned will no longer be able to question the characteristics of the proposed transaction: from then on the Customer and Supplier are contractually bound to carry out the transaction which is shown as “Active” in the Application: the Deposit remains effective throughout the valid deposit period.

 

Acceptance of the Deposit means that the DEPOSIT PLACE Service Charges linked to the use of a permalink must be paid to the Company by the customer. However, payment will be made at the end of each calendar month in the event of payment by the customer, in one instalment if other DEPOSIT PLACE Service Charges or DEPOSIT PLACE Payment Costs are due, and by immediate debit in the event of payment by the Customer. The DEPOSIT PLACE Service Charges may be paid by direct debit from the bank card or debited from the bank account concerned.

Closure of a Deposit

 

A Deposit can be closed after it has been accepted by the user in accordance with Article 5 paragraph a), in one of the three following cases:

 

a/ On the Customers initiative by a request for collection

 

The Customer can decide keep all or part of the Total Amount of the Deposit, they must provide a reason and evidence for the collection to the user by mean of the Deposit Place Platform (user failed to show up in the event of a Deposit, default in payment in the event of a Guaranteed Deposit, the asset concerned by the transaction was returned damaged, allowing collection of the Deposit Security Deposit) in particular if it is a partial collection. A collection request by the Customer constitutes a Complaint against the user. A collection by the customer constitutes acceptance of the General Terms and in particular of payment by the customer of the Deposit Place service Charges to the Company.

 

In this case, confirmation is sent to the customer and notice is sent to the user by email along with the reason and evidence.

 

The DEPOSIT PLACE Payment Charges are owed by the Customer to the Company. The amount of the Deposit actually paid must correspond to the Collection of the Deposit requested by the customer unless the Company has decided on a lower payment. The DEPOSIT PLACE  Payment Charges will however be paid by direct debit from the customers bank card or debited from his bank account at the end of each calendar month, and in a single instalment if other DEPOSIT PLACE  Service Charges or DEPOSIT PLACE  Payment Costs are due.

 

Collection of the Deposit results in closure of the Deposit, including if the aforesaid payment is a part payment in accordance with the initial request.

 

b/ On the Customers initiative by a cancellation request

 

The Customer can decide to cancel the Deposit, and this cannot on any account be challenged by the  user. This cancellation constitutes closure of the Deposit.

 

In this case, if the Deposit is a Security Deposit, this involves the Customer cancelling the virtual deposit cheque: the user is informed of this by email and is therefore no longer bound by the transaction for the Total Amount of the Deposit.

 

In the case of a Damage Deposit, cancellation allows the user to withdraw and, unless otherwise stated in the customer’s terms of sale, receive the damage deposit back.

 

As this is a Guaranteed Deposit, it is the customer’s responsibility to tear off the virtual cheque guaranteeing full payment of the goods or service: the user is informed by email and is therefore no longer committed to the operation for the Total Amount of the Deposit.

 

The customer alone is liable for his decision to cancel a Deposit and for any consequences of it.

 

On no account can the customer or user hold the Company liable for the consequences of cancellation of a Deposit.

 

c/ At the end of the valid Deposit period

 

Since all Deposits have a Period of Validity set by the customer who requested the Deposit, the Deposit is automatically closed at midnight two days after its expiry. Both parties are notified when the Deposit is closed.
