You shall cooperate as fully as reasonably required in the defense of any such claim. Dave reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you. You agree not to settle any matter without the prior written consent of Dave.

25. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION

YOU HAVE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THAT IT LIMITS YOUR RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REJECT THIS PROVISION AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 25.3 BELOW.

25.1 Election to Arbitrate. You and Dave agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 25 (the “Arbitration Provision”), unless you opt out as provided in Section 25.3 below. As used in this Arbitration Provision, “Claim” shall include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or controversy involving you (or persons claiming through or connected with you), on the one hand, and us on the other hand, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, and/or the activities or relationships that involve, lead to, or result from this Agreement, including (except to the extent provided otherwise in the last sentence of Section 25.8 below) the validity or enforceability of this Arbitration Provision, any part thereof, or the entire Agreement. Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); a constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include matters arising as initial claims, counter‐claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. Please note that you may continue to assert Claims in small claims court, if your Claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.

25.2 Applicability of the Federal Arbitration Act; Arbitrator’s Powers. This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”). The arbitrator will apply substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator may award damages or other types of relief permitted by applicable substantive law, subject to the limitations set forth in this Arbitration Provision. The arbitrator will not be bound by judicial rules of procedure and evidence that would apply in a court. The arbitrator shall take steps to reasonably protect confidential information.

25.3 Opt-Out of Arbitration Provision. You may opt out of this Arbitration Provision for all purposes by sending an arbitration opt out notice to support@dave.comwithin 60 days of the date of your electronic acceptance of the terms of this Agreement. The opt out notice must clearly state that you are rejecting arbitration; identify the Agreement to which it applies by date; provide your name, address, and social security number; and be signed by you. You may send an opt-out notice in any manner you see fit as long as it is received at the specified address within the specified time. No other methods can be used to opt out of this Arbitration Provision. If the opt out notice is sent on your behalf by a third party, such third party must include evidence of his or her authority to submit the opt out notice on your behalf.

25.4 Informal Dispute Resolution. If a Claim arises, our goal is to learn about and address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. You agree that before filing any claim in arbitration, you may submit Claims by sending an email to support@dave.com at any time.

25.5 Arbitration Procedures. The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. You may obtain copies of the current rules, forms, and instructions for initiating an arbitration with the AAA by contacting the AAA as follows: on the web at American Arbitration Association | ADR.org  or by writing to American Arbitration Association, Case Filing Services, 1101 Laurel Oak Road, Suite 100, Voorhees, NJ 08043. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, or any other location we agree to.

25.6 Arbitration Fees. If we elect arbitration, we shall pay all the administrator's filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees). If you elect arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees) shall be paid in accordance with the rules of the administrator selected, or in accordance with countervailing law if contrary to the administrator's rules. We shall pay the administrator's hearing fees for one full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one day will be paid by the party requesting the hearing, unless the administrator's rules or applicable law require otherwise, or you request that we pay them and we agree to do so. Each party shall bear the expense of its own attorneys' fees, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives you the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein.

25.7 Appeals. Within 30 days of a final award by the arbitrator, any party may appeal the award for reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel selected according to the rules of the arbitrator administrator. In the event of such an appeal, any opposing party may cross-appeal within 30 days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed. Costs and conduct of any appeal shall be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the administrator's rules, in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and any panel award on appeal, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

25.8 No Class Actions. NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, no party to the arbitration may join, consolidate, or otherwise bring claims for or on behalf of two or more individuals or unrelated corporate entities in the same arbitration unless those persons are parties to a single transaction. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, an award in arbitration shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the claims in arbitration, and shall not (a) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party, or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party; nor (b) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than a named party. No administrator or arbitrator shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this Section 25.8, and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this Section 25.8 shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator.

25.9 Survival and Severability of Arbitration Provision. This Arbitration Provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision other than Section 25.8 is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. If there is a final judicial determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of this Arbitration Provision’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief or particular term, then that claim (and only that claim) or that term (and only that term) must be severed from the Arbitration Provision and may be brought in court. If an arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis, and the limitations on such proceedings in Section 25.8 are finally adjudicated pursuant to the last sentence of Section 25.8 to be unenforceable, then no arbitration shall be had. In no event shall any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims or make awards beyond those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.

25.10 Judicial Forum for Claims. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that this Arbitration Provision is found not to apply to you or your Claim, you and Dave agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Los Angeles County, California. Both you and Dave consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

25.11 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO LITIGATE. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY.

26. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

Except for Section 25 which is governed by the FAA, this Agreement and all Claims are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

27. ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFER DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

The following disclosures are made in accordance with the federal law regarding electronic payments, deposits, transfers of funds and other electronic transfers. There may be limitations on your Linked Account or debit card that restrict your ability to make electronic fund transfers. Any such limits are disclosed in the appropriate agreements governing your Linked Account or debit card.
The disclosures in this Section 25 apply to all Services described in this Agreement EXCEPT the Dave Banking Account, Dave Card, Send a Check service, or any transfers between your Linked Accounts and your Dave Banking Account. For information and disclosures applicable to your Dave Banking Account, Dave Card, the Send a Check service or transfers between your Linked Accounts and Dave Banking Account, please refer to the Electronic Fund Transfers section of the Deposit Account Agreement available here.

27.1 Definitions.

  • Electronic Fund Transfer : Any transfer of funds that is initiated through an electronic device or computer to instruct us to debit or credit a Linked Account, debit card or your Dave Banking Account. Electronic Fund Transfers include such electronic transactions transfers initiated via telephone or the Mobile App.
  • Preauthorized Electronic Fund Transfer : An Electronic Fund Transfer that you have authorized in advance to recur at substantially regular intervals; for example, withdrawal of funds out of your Linked Account to pay the Subscription Fee.
  • Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfer is an Electronic Fund Transfer initiated by a person other than you who does not have actual, implied, or apparent authority to initiate the transfer, and from which you do not benefit. If you give access to your Mobile App user account to another person, all payments by that person are authorized unless and until you notify us that payments by that person are no longer authorized.

27.2 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 Mobile App Login ID or password has been lost or stolen or if your Mobile App user account has been, or may have been, subject to Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers. Contact us immediately to keep your possible losses to a minimum. You could lose all the money in your Linked Account(s) and/or Dave Banking Account.
  • If you tell us within four (4) business days after learning of the loss or theft of your Mobile App Login ID or password or after learning of any other Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers associated with your Mobile App user account, you can lose no more than $50. However, if you DO NOT tell us within four (4) business days after learning of the loss, theft or unauthorized use associated with your Mobile App user account, and we can establish that we could have prevented the Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfer(s) if you had told us in time, you could lose as much as $500.
  • If your periodic account statement issued by your bank or financial institution shows Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers and you DO NOT tell us within ninety (90) days after the statement was delivered to you, you may not get back any money you lose after the ninety (90) 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 Mobile App Login ID or password or of any other suspected Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers(s), the time periods specified in this Section 28.2 may be extended for a reasonable period.

27.3 Business Days. For purposes of this Section 27, Dave business days are Monday through Friday. Holidays are not included.

27.4 Types of Transfers; Limitations. You may use the Services to request and receive Advances to your Linked Account, debit card or Dave Banking Account, to repay such Advances in the amounts and on the days you request, to pay voluntary tips to Dave, and to pay the monthly Subscription Fee. Any limitations regarding Advance amount, tip amount or Subscription Fee amount will be displayed to you through the Services. Through the Mobile App you may also authorize recurring preauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers from your Linked Account or debit card to pay for the Subscription Fee. See Section 11 for more information about stopping payment of preauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers.

Transfers between your Linked Account and Dave Banking Account, as well as payments made to third parties through the Send a Check service, are governed by the Dave Deposit Account Agreement, available here. Please refer to that agreement for information concerning any limitations that may apply to these transfers and payments.

27.5 Fees. Dave charges no fees to access an Advance. However, you may choose to pay an Express Fee to expedite an Advance as set forth in Section 9.2. There are also no fees for using or accessing the Mobile Banking Services.

27.6 Documentation. Your Advance and payment history can be viewed within the Mobile App by navigating to the “Account Settings” page and tapping “Account” or “Advances,” depending on the type of transactions you seek to view. You are responsible for reviewing payment history and/or Dave Banking Account transaction history, if applicable, and maintaining copies for your records.

27.7 Our Liability. See Sections 22 and 24 above. If Dave does not debit or credit your Linked Account, debit card or Dave Banking Account in accordance with these Terms, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:

  • If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your Linked Account, debit card or Dave Banking Account to make a payment.
  • If the Linked Account, debit card or Dave Banking Account you specify as the payment source is closed or does not contain sufficient funds to complete the payment or the charge is rejected or returned by your bank or financial institution.
  • If the Services were not working properly and you knew about the problems when you started your payment.
  • If we cannot complete a payment due to fraud or attacks on our systems or the Services.
  • If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent a payment, despite reasonable precautions we have taken.
  • There may be other exceptions stated in our Agreement with you.

27.8 Confidentiality Related to Electronic Fund Transfers. We will disclose information to third parties about the Electronic Fund Transfers you make through the Services:

  • Where it is necessary for completing the Electronic Fund Transfers; or,
  • In order to comply with government agency or court orders; or,

27.9 Error Resolution

We must hear from you no later than 90 days after the statement or receipt was delivered to you. In your notification to us, you must:

We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your Linked Account or Dave Banking Account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account.

For errors involving new Mobile App user accounts, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new Mobile App user accounts, we may take up to 20 business days to credit your Linked Account or Dave Banking Account for the amount you think is in error.
