CUSTOMER TERMS

What We Do.

Opendorse provides technology to the athlete endorsement industry. We serve the full lifecycle of supporting athletes: educating, assessing, planning, sharing, creating, measuring, tracking, disclosing, regulating, listing, browsing, booking, and more.

Our industry-leading products – Opendorse Compliance, Content, Education, and Marketplace – help athletes and their supporters understand, build, protect, and monetize their brand value. Specifically, for you, our Customer, we connect you with End Users whom you wish to engage in requested Activities

Searching and Booking an Activity.

Searching. Customers can search for End Users to perform an Activity by using different search criteria such as name, institution, sport, and gender. Search results are based on an End User’s having an account with Opendorse which is open to searching.

Booking. When you find your specified End User(s),and request an Activity from the End User(s), you are agreeing to pay the Activity Fee that End User has posted for the completed Activity, as well as additional fees including any Opendorse Fees; the Opendorse Fee and the Activity Fee together shall be referred to as the Total Fee (“Total Fee”). When you request the Activity, the Total Fee will be collected at that time.

Fees and Payment

Minimum Activity Fee. The minimum Activity Fee may be listed on each End User’s profile page. Prior to checkout, the additional Opendorse Fees shall also be displayed. By submitting a request, you agree to pay the Total Fee associated with each Activity. All fees you will be required to pay for an Activity will be made clear prior to you submitting final approval of payment. All transactions on the Opendorse Site are settled in USD. You will be responsible for payment of any fees or expenses imposed by your payment card provider or the payment processor to settle the transaction in USD.

Payment Processing. When you request an Activity, you must provide a valid payment method through the applicable third-party payment provider Opendorse has selected, currently Stripe, although that may be subject to change upon notice. Your payment method will be charged for the full amount upon request of the Activity. You acknowledge and agree that Opendorse does not operate, own or control the payment provider. Your use of your payment method is governed by your agreement with and the privacy policy of the payment provider, not these Terms. You agree to immediately notify the payment provider of any change in your billing address (or other information) for your payment method.

Refunds. Once you have booked an Activity, if for some reason that Activity does not complete, the full amount charged will be put back into your Opendorse Account balance for use on a future Activity. You may use that credit for any purchases on the Site until such time as the credit is fully redeemed. You may only use your credit for a purchase of the exact amount or an amount lower than the credit available. Any purchase over the amount of credit you have available will be charged in full to your payment method.

If you wish to receive a refund of those funds, Opendorse will do so, but there shall be a 5% processing charge on the amount refunded. You may not exchange or return an Activity once the request has been accepted by the End User.

If an Activity that you have paid for has not completed, please inform Opendorse by emailing [email protected] and advising of the situation, it is at that point, Opendorse will be able to help you with the refund process as outlined above.

Opendorse Cancellations. Opendorse reserves the right (but is under no obligation) to cancel any Activity request if: (i) the payment method is declined; or (ii) if the requestor has previously been banned or removed from the Site for any reason. If the Activity is cancelled at the behest of Opendorse, a refund of the Total Fee shall be made to the original payment method.

Change of Activity Fee. The End User may change the Activity Fee at any time, by providing such change on their profile. If the change is made after an Activity is booked and payment has been made, the End User shall honor the original Activity Fee. Likewise, Opendorse reserves the right to change the Opendorse Fees or the payment procedures, including payment options and terms, either immediately upon posting on the Site or by other notice to you.

Content Issues. If there is an issue with the content provided by an End User (i.e., it contains offensive or profane material, or violates the intellectual property rights of you or another party) you can attempt to resolve by working directly with the End User. If that is not possible, or if that fails, please contact [email protected] and we will work with you to attempt to resolve the issue.

Taxes. You are responsible for payment of any taxes levied on the transactions you make through the Site.

Fees and Payment

Activity Fees. It is your responsibility to set your minimum accepted Activity Fee for each Activity. These Activity Fees will be posted and made clear to any Customer who wishes to make an Activity request of you. You may change your Activity Fees, but must honor an Activity Fee for an Activity that has already been accepted, even if your Activity Fee changes prior to the Activity being completed. Your Activity Fee will be released to your Account upon accepted proof of the completion of an Activity.

Cancellation. You may choose to cancel an Activity prior to performance of such. In the event of cancellation, any payment made by Customer will not be released to your account. A Customer may likewise choose to cancel an Activity request prior to the Activity being fulfilled. If a Customer attempts to make a cancellation after you have fulfilled the requested Activity, payment for the portion of the Activity you have completed may be released to your Account. Any cancellation shall be subject to any terms you have agreed to with Customer upon accepting the Activity request. Opendorse reserves the right (but is under no obligation) to cancel any Activity request if (i) the payment method is declined; or (ii) if the requestor or End User has previously been banned or removed from the Site for any reason.

Taxes

You are responsible for payment of any taxes that are levied on the Activity Fees you earn each year. Opendorse will provide you a Form 1099 at the end of each tax year, and it is your responsibility to properly report and remit any required payments. Opendorse is not a legal or tax advisor and as such offers no warranty or representation regarding the amount you may owe or your requirements in filing your income tax. Opendorse advises the hiring of a tax professional for any associated questions or issues you may have.
