Suspension Rights

In addition to the suspension rights included in the Stripe Services Agreement, Alma has certain additional rights to suspend or terminate your use of Alma, such as for breach of the prohibited business categories listed above or for suspected fraud.

Refunds

You will inform Stripe any time a full or partial refund is required due to a goodwill gesture, withdrawal, or cancellation. You agree to:

  • refund Stripe any amounts received within 14 days following the customer’s exercise of its right of withdrawal, except for justified delays; and
  • not directly issue a refund to the customer and issue any refunds via Stripe.

Settlement

Due to Alma’s requirements, Stripe may not settle transaction amounts to you sooner than 3 days after the customer has requested a credit agreement with Alma.

Provision of Goods and Services

If you provide goods or services to the customer before the customer’s credit agreement with Alma is concluded, provision of the goods or services is at your own risk.

Required Customer Terms

You agree to include in your own general terms of sale:

  • customers can make purchases in installments using Alma.
  • a customer’s purchase using Alma is subject to Alma’s terms and conditions.
  • non-approval by Alma for a purchase may result in the cancellation of that purchase.
  • a customer purchasing a good or service with Alma has a period of fourteen (14) calendar days from the purchase to withdrawal.

Alma Transactions

Alma may be required to request the customer’s authorization to view the customer’s bank account transaction history and additional personal documents.

If Alma concludes that a risk of fraud or default exists, Alma may, at its sole discretion, refuse to complete the transaction.

In the event of fraud on the part of the customer, Alma may take any action it deems necessary against the Customer.

Information Sharing

You agree that your information can be shared with Alma. For more information, see Stripe’s Privacy Center.
