FEES; PAYMENT

  1. a. The Customer shall pay fees as set forth in the provided Pricing Schedule, as otherwise provided in the Agreement, or as otherwise agreed in writing. Subscription Fees begin to accrue on the day the transaction was processed and will be calculated on a pro-rata rate for the remaining days of the month and will renew monthly on the first day of every month or as indicated in the Pricing Schedule or the Service Start Date, whichever is earlier.
  2. b. A User Account can be assigned only to one individual; User Accounts may not be shared. However if an individual permanently ceases to be assigned to a particular User Account, that User Account may be assigned to another individual. The Customer is responsible for enabling and disabling individual Users.
  3. c. The billing interval is indicated in the Pricing Schedule provided by Ditto Hire. The Subscription Fees will be invoiced for each billing interval on or about the first day of that billing interval, in advance for that entire interval (except as otherwise agreed in writing for certain items), and are due within 7 days of the invoice date. If the Billing Start Date or Service Start Date is the first day of a calendar month, then the regular, full billing intervals will start on that date, whichever is earlier. If not, then the regular, full billing intervals will start on the first day of the first full calendar month after the Billing Start Date or Service Start Date, whichever is earlier, and the Subscription Fees for the partial month starting on such Billing Start Date or Service Start Date, as the case may be, will be prorated and added to the invoice for the first full billing interval.
  4. d. "Subscription Fees" are the recurring fees for User Accounts, Credits, modules, and other items. Some are based on the number of billable Users (such as those for the User Accounts for the main Service) and others are a flat monthly fee, as specified in the Pricing Schedule. Additional services may also be purchased as a singular transaction. For a given billing interval, the periodic Subscription Fee for User Accounts is equal to the number of billable User Accounts on the first day of that billing interval multiplied by the monthly Subscription Fee per User for the applicable Service, then multiplied by the number of months in the billing interval. The number of billable User Accounts for the first billing interval is the initial number of Users (for the applicable Service) specified in the provided Pricing Schedule. User Accounts that are added) will be charged as billable User Accounts at the then current price per User Account without any corresponding downward adjustment for Users that for any reason no longer use or have access to, the Service. For the remainder of the Term, the Customer shall pay the additional Subscription Fee for each User Account added, quarterly in arrears for other User Accounts under this Agreement, except that if the User Account is added other than on the first day of a billing interval, the additional Subscription Fee for that first, partial billing interval shall be prorated. Different billable User rules may apply for items other than those based on User Accounts. In no event shall the monthly Subscription Fees for such other items be less than the amounts provided under the provided Pricing Schedule (as it may be amended in writing or otherwise adjusted hereunder from time to time), treating the number of Users specified for each therein as a minimum number for billing purposes.
  5. e. Invoices for all fees are due and payable within 7 days of invoice date. For customers paying via credit or debit card, customer’s credit or debit card account is charged simultaneously with the creation of the customer’s invoice. The Customer’s account will be considered delinquent (in arrears) if payment in full is not received by the due date. Ditto Jobs fees and charges are exclusive of value added tax, withholding and any other applicable taxes, levies, or duties, and the Customer will be responsible for payment of all such amounts. Unless Ditto Hire otherwise agrees in writing, all amounts are payable in South African Rand (ZAR). If the Customer believes that any specific charge under the Agreement is incorrect, in order to obtain a credit, the Customer must contact Ditto Hire in writing within 7 days of invoice date setting forth the nature and amount of the requested correction and pay the undisputed portion by the due date.
