Service Agreement
This Service Agreement ("Agreement") is between you ("you", "Merchant") and High Tech Republic Inc., doing business as Webinopoly ("we", "us"), the provider of Checkout Republic (the "Service"). By signing up for, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Changes to this Agreement
We may update this Agreement from time to time by posting the revised version on this page and updating the date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted means you accept the revised Agreement.
2. The Service
Checkout Republic is a custom checkout application that connects your Shopify store to Square payment processing. The Service includes:
- installation and configuration of the checkout application on your Shopify store;
- connection of the checkout to your Square account for payment processing;
- customization of the checkout's design and fields, and rules such as ZIP-code restrictions;
- synchronization of product, customer, inventory, and order information with Shopify, and integrations such as Klaviyo;
- ongoing checkout adjustments and technical support.
We provide support on a commercially reasonable efforts basis during our support hours, 6 AM–8 PM Central.
3. Your responsibilities
To receive the Service you agree to:
- give us the access to your Shopify store needed to install, configure, and maintain the application;
- maintain an active Square account in good standing — payments are processed by Square under your agreement with Square, and Square's processing fees apply;
- keep your account information accurate and your login credentials secure;
- comply with the terms of Shopify, Square, and any other platform you connect to the Service, and with all laws that apply to your business and the products you sell.
You are solely responsible for your store, your products, your customers, and any content you or third parties upload through the Service.
4. Fees and billing
The Service costs a one-time implementation fee of $500, followed by a subscription of $50 per month. Fees are billed in advance and are non-refundable, as described in our Refund Policy. We may change our fees with at least 30 days' notice.
If you dispute a charge with your bank or card issuer instead of contacting us first, we will charge a $200 chargeback fee and may suspend the Service until the dispute is resolved.
5. License
Subject to this Agreement, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-sublicensable, revocable right to use the Service to operate your online store. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by us.
6. Intellectual property
The Service, including its software, source code, design, and content, is owned by us and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, resell, or redistribute any part of the Service without our written permission. Purchasing the Service does not entitle you to future versions or features, which we may provide at our discretion.
7. Third-party services
The Service works with third-party platforms, including Shopify, Square, and Klaviyo. We are not responsible for those platforms, their availability, their fees, or your relationship with them or with your customers, and your use of them is governed by their own terms.
8. Acceptable use
You may not use the Service to:
- sell or promote anything unlawful, or violate any law or the rights of others;
- process fraudulent transactions or transactions that violate Square's or Shopify's policies;
- transmit malicious software or interfere with the Service or its infrastructure;
- scrape, harvest, or collect data from the Service without authorization.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, or data. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us for the Service in the twelve (12) months before the claim arose.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless us and our officers, employees, and agents from any claims, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Service, your store or products, content uploaded through your account, or your breach of this Agreement or any law.
12. Cancellation, suspension, and termination
You may cancel at any time by contacting us. Cancellation stops future subscription charges; it takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and fees already paid are not refunded.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time if you breach this Agreement, fail to pay, or use the Service in a way that creates risk or legal exposure for us or others.
13. Privacy and cookies
We process store and customer information only as needed to provide the Service. Our websites may use cookies to operate and improve the Service; blocking cookies may affect how some features work.
14. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract to use the Service.
15. Governing law
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Harris County, Texas.
