Subscriptions and other Fees

(Service Providers only)

If you are a service provider, you may begin your subscription [here]  Once you have an active subscription, facility managers will send you requests for proposals (“RFPs”) and invite you to provide written responses and prices to the RFPs pursuant to our Service Provider Subscription Web Form.  If your response to the RFP is selected, you may begin negotiating the terms of a contract award (“Contract Award”) with a facility manager or property owner (the “Contracting Party”).  You are obligated to furnish Procursys with a copy of your contract with the Contracting Party.  If you enter into a Contract Award, you are responsible for collecting payment from the Contracting Party and agree to pay us the Contract Award fees listed on our Service Provider Pricing page and/or the specific fee outlined in the RFP.  You are obligated to remit Procursys’ share of any payment you receive within 7 days of its receipt.  Procursys does not guarantee payment by the Contracting Party of any fees owed to you in accordance with a Contract Award. Procursys is not responsible for the collection, monitoring, payment or invoicing of any fees owed to you in accordance with a Contract Award.

The Contract Award fee you shall pay to Procursys (“Success Fee”)(“Sometimes also referred to as “Transaction Fee”) may change from time to time and for different Contract Awards obtained through the Services.  For a fixed fee seasonal Contract Award obtained through the Services, you shall pay Procursys a Success Fee equal to the percentage outlined on our Service Provider Pricing page and/or the specific fee outlined in the RFP multiplied by the value of the total Contract Award.  For example, if the Contract Award is ten thousand dollars and the percentage outlined on our Service Provider Pricing page is three-point five percent, the Success Fee you shall pay to Procursys will be equal to three hundred and fifty dollars ($10,000 * 0.035 = $350.00).  For a per event or time and materials Contract Award obtained through the Services, you shall pay Procursys a Success Fee equal to the percentage outlined on our Service Provider Pricing page and/or the specific fee outlined in the RFP multiplied by the fees earned as a result of the Contract Award.  For instance, if you earn ten thousand dollars for an event or invoice ten thousand dollars in time and materials and the percentage outlined on our Service Provider Pricing page is three-point five percent, the Success Fee you shall pay to Procursys will be equal to three hundred and fifty dollars ($10,000 * 0.035 = $350.00).  If you earn additional fees through contract enhancements, add on work or extensions of any kind as a result of a Contract Award obtained through the Services, the Success Fee outlined above shall apply in all cases.  All Success Fees associated with a Contract Award obtained through the Services are immediately due and payable upon receipt by you of any fee resulting from a Contract Award.

Once you have been awarded a contract and received payment on account of your services the Success Fee owed to Procursys shall remain due and owning, unless paid in full, even if you elect to cancel your service contract.

You have the option of subscribing to the service on a monthly or annual basis. The subscription fee is payable in advance and automatically charged to your credit card.  The subscription automatically renews on the first anniversary date and all subsequent anniversary dates of the completion of an account set up.  Either party may give the other written notice of termination at least 30 days prior to the end of the relevant term.  Please be advised that no portion of your subscription fee paid in advance will be refundable if you elect to cancel the service.

You shall provide Procursys with an accounting of all fees invoiced in accordance with a Contract Award obtained through the services within thirty (30) days of receiving a written request from Procursys.  Procursys reserves the right to audit your business records and systems upon five (5) days advance written notice for purposes of determining compliance with our Service Provider Pricing terms.  Pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, you agree to provide electronic access to your books and records to Procursys upon request if payments due Procursys have not been received within 7 days of your receipt of payment of an Award Fee.  We reserve the right to charge your account if we determine in good faith that you have failed to make timely payment of the amounts due  to Procursys or accurately report the full Contract Award amounts that serve as the basis for the Contract Award Fees.

Subscriptions and other payments are processed through our third-party payment processor, who has its own separate terms and conditions accessible here.

You are responsible for any fees charged by your internet service provider or mobile carrier for using the Service, including, but not limited to data transfer fees.

Credit Card Authorization

By acceptance of the terms of this Agreement, you expressly grant permission to Procursys to charge Users credit card solely for recurring fees for its subscription and for payment of the Success fees owed to Procursys and outstanding for more than 14 days.  Procursys may notify your credit card company of your authorization for approved charges.  This authorization applies to the cardholder information you provided with your application.  Please advise Procursys if you discontinue the use of a card or prefer charges to be made against a card account that differs from the account furnished at time of your application.  Failure to maintain a current credit card account designating Procursys as a limited authorized user shall be a violation of the terms of this agreement.
