Changed App Terms Agreement

Last modified: August 14,2023

 

This Changed App Terms Agreement (“Agreement”) is a binding agreement between you (“End User” or “you”) and Changed Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Changed” or the “Company” or “we” or “us”). This Agreement governs your use of the Changed App, (including all related documentation, the “Application”). The Application is licensed, not sold, to you.

 

The Services provided through this Application help you pay off your student loans and other debt faster by rounding up your purchases to the next dollar. When the difference between your purchases and the rounded-up amount reaches or exceeds $5.00, Changed will transfer the funds to your Changed account ("Changed Account"). When your Changed Account balance reaches or exceeds your selected balance threshold, Changed will send a payment to your student loan account servicer or your other loan account servicer. Changed can transfer a maximum of $500 per week to your loan servicer. If a refund of your Changed Account balance is requested the maximum amount that can be sent back to your account is $600 per day until your Changed account is fully refunded. To use this service, you will be required to submit bank account and loan servicer information as provided below.

 

The Services provided through this Application also includes Changed’s “Stash my Cash” program. The Stash my Cash program is a separate account. The account carries no interest. You will be able to split your savings from your external and connected bank accounts to this Stash my Cash Account and your other accounts with Changed. You can then “Cash Out” your Stash my Cash balance at any point, once per day.  The Changed Stash my Cash Account and Changed Account are both referred to herein as “Changed Accounts”.

 

The Changed Account and Stash my Cash Accounts are brokerage accounts with a cash management feature, provided through Synapse Brokerage LLC (“Synapse Brokerage”), an SEC-registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA and SIPC. Additional information about Synapse Brokerage can be found on FINRA's BrokerCheck.

The following disclosures are made in accordance with the federal law regarding electronic payments, deposits, transfers of funds and other electronic transfers to and from your account(s). There may be limitations on account activity that restrict your ability to make electronic fund transfers. Any such limits are disclosed in the appropriate agreements governing your account.

 

1. Definitions: Electronic Fund Transfer: Any transfer of funds, other than a transaction originated by check, draft or similar paper instrument, that is initiated through an electronic device or computer to instruct us to debit or credit an account. Electronic Fund Transfers include such electronic transactions as direct deposits or withdrawals of funds, transfers initiated via telephone, website or mobile application. Preauthorized Electronic Fund Transfer: An Electronic Fund Transfer that you have authorized in advance to recur at substantially regular intervals; for example, direct deposits into or withdrawal of funds out of your account.

 II. Your Liability: Authorized Transfers: You are liable for all Electronic Fund Transfers that you authorize, whether directly or indirectly. Unauthorized Transfers: Tell us at once if you believe your account or PIN or Access Information (as defined below) is lost or stolen or has been or may be subject to unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers. Support message us immediately to keep your possible losses to a minimum. You could lose all the money in your account(s). If you tell us within two (2) Business Days after learning of the loss or theft of your account access device, or after learning of any other unauthorized transfers from your account involving your account access device, you can lose no more than $50 if Electronic Fund Transfers are made without your permission. For these transactions, if you DO NOT tell us within two (2) Business Days after learning of the loss, theft or unauthorized use, and we can establish that we could have prevented the unauthorized transfer(s) if you had told us in time, you could lose as much as $500. Also, if your periodic account statement shows unauthorized transfers and you DO NOT tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was delivered to you, you may not get back any money you lose after the sixty (60) day period if we can prove that we could have prevented the unauthorized transfer(s) if you had told us in time. If an extenuating circumstance (such as extended travel or hospitalization) prevents you from promptly notifying us of a suspected lost or stolen access device or of any other suspected unauthorized transfer(s), the time periods specified in this Section B may be extended for a reasonable period.

For business accounts, we must hear from you within one (1) Business Day of us sending you a receipt. Your inquiry must include: (x) your name, email associated with your account, and your account number (if available); (y) a description of the error or the transaction you are unsure about, and a clear explanation of why you believe there is an error or why you need more information; and (z) the dollar amount of the suspected error.
