Platform Client Terms

Last updated: May 24, 2023

These PLATFORM CLIENT TERMS supplement the Corporate Client Service Agreement between the entity on whose behalf a Tremendous Account is created and Tremendous (the “Agreement”) and govern each Platform Client’s (defined below) access to the Site and use of the Services. Please read these Platform Client Terms carefully, as they form a legally binding agreement between each Platform Client and Tremendous. We may update these Platform Client Terms from time to time by posting an updated version of the Platform Client Terms here as further described in Section 8.c below, so please check back for any changes that may impact you. The “Last Updated” legend at the top of this page indicates when the Platform Client Terms were last revised. Any changes to the Platform Client Terms will become effective upon the earlier of: (a) your first use of the Services with actual notice of such changes, or (b) 30 days after we post or distribute the revised Platform Client Terms, and such changes will apply to your use of the Services after the effective date of the revised Platform Client Terms. If you do not wish to accept the new Platform Client Terms, you must stop using the Site and Services as a Platform Client.

In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of these Platform Client Terms and the Agreement, these Platform Client Terms will control to the extent necessary to resolve the conflict or inconsistency. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. Tremendous and the Platform Client, each a “Party” and, together, the “Parties.”

Tremendous may serve Clients that desire to (i) provide the Services to their own customers (such persons, each, an “End User”) on a pass-through basis, (ii) allow their End Users to access the Services through such End User’s relationship with the Client, or (iii) include the Services as a feature of their products and/or services provided to End Users. Such Clients, each, a “Platform Client.” For the avoidance of doubt, a Platform Client remains a Client and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement.

If you believe you are a Platform Client and have not been in touch with our team, please contact Sales.

  1. PLATFORM CLIENT ACCOUNT

    1. Depending on a Platform Client’s use case, different structures of the Tremendous Account may be appropriate for such Platform Client’s use.

    2. Acting as Agent. If a Platform Client creates a Tremendous Account through which it operates on behalf of its End User(s), Platform Client represents and warrant that it has been appointed as agent of such End User and has the authority to enter into the Agreement on its behalf. In such instance, Tremendous will treat Platform Client as such End User’s Representative.

    3. Add-On Service. If a Platform Client offers its End Users the Services as an additional service offering on its platform, such Platform Client will incorporate the TREMENDOUS CORPORATE CLIENT SERVICE AGREEMENT into its terms with such End Users. By including access to the Services in its platform, a Platform Client represents and warrants that it has adequately notified End Users that they are subject to separate and additional terms with respect to their use of the Services and have presented them in a manner adequate for such End Users to be legally bound by such terms. Tremendous reserves the right to review and provide revisions to the incorporation of the Agreement into Platform Client’s End User-facing terms. If Platform Client rejects such revisions, Tremendous reserves the right to deny or limit Platform Client’s access to its Tremendous Account until such time as the Parties can agree on acceptable terms.

    4. Sub-Accounts. Upon Tremendous’ consent, a Platform Client may create sub-accounts of its Tremendous Account (each, a “Sub-Account”) such that each End User is reflected separately within the Platform Client’s Tremendous Account.

      1. Balance. Each Sub-Account may have a separate Balance and Orders placed through such Sub-Account will be reflected as a debit to that Balance.

      2. Orders. Platform Client is solely responsible for placing Orders through the appropriate Sub-Account. Tremendous will not re-route any Orders placed through one Sub-Account to another Sub-Account.

    5. Records. Platform Client is solely responsible for providing records reflecting Orders placed, a Balance, or other information with respect to the use of the Site and Services to End Users. Tremendous will not provide additional or different information than it otherwise provides in connection with a Client’s Tremendous Account.

  2. END USERS

    1. Eligibility. End Users must meet the same eligibility criteria as Clients, as set forth in the Agreement. By using the Service on behalf of an End User, a Platform Client represents and warrants that such End User is eligible to create a Tremendous Account and use the Services.

    2. Identity Verification. Platform Client must notify Tremendous of its desire to allow an End User to access and use the Services and comply with the following identity verification measures with respect to such End User.

      1. Pass-Through KYB. Platform Client must provide all information regarding an End User requested by Tremendous for the purposes of identity verification and the detection of money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud or any other financial crime or legal reason. By providing the information to Tremendous, Platform Client represents and warrants that such information is complete and accurate. If Tremendous is unable to verify an End User’s identity or determines that an End User should not have access to the Site or Services (either at onboarding or any time throughout the Term), we will notify Platform Client upon such determination and Platform Client will ensure that such End User’s access to the Site and Services is immediately removed. Tremendous will keep a record of all information provided to us by Platform Client and may share it with Bank and other service providers, in accordance with Tremendous’ Privacy Policy, found at www.tremendous.com/privacy.

      2. Reliance on Platform Client KYB. If Platform Client has an anti-money laundering and sanctions program (an “AML Program”) of its own, it can submit such AML Program to Tremendous for our review. If we determine that the AML Program is adequate, Tremendous will rely on Platform Client’s processes to determine whether an End User may access the Site and Services. On an annual basis or in the event of a material update to its AML Program, Platform Client must (A) provide Tremendous with a copy of its AML Program currently in effect or (B) attest that it has not made any material changes to its AML Program.

    Platform Client represents and warrants that it follows its AML Program with respect to each End User, with respect to such End User access to and use of the Site and Services. At any time and without prior notice to Platform Client, Tremendous may determine that the AML Program is no longer adequate and a Platform Client must instead submit each End User to us for review and approval.

  3. PLATFORM CLIENT OBLIGATIONS. In addition to the Client representations and warranties set forth in the Agreement, Platform Client represents and warrants that:

    1. It is authorized to share information, including personal information of the ultimate beneficial owners, officers and directors of End Users;

    2. End Users have authorized it to access the Site and use the Services;

    3. It has and will continue to effectively communicate with End Users that the Services are subject to additional and different terms, which are subject to change (and will be binding upon their use upon such change) without direct notice to End Users;

    4. Any information provided to Tremendous is complete and accurate and, if such information changes, Platform Client will provide Tremendous with updated information;

    5. It will enforce any determinations Tremendous makes with respect to individual End User’s access to the Site or use of the Services;

    6. It has obtained all requisite rights, approvals, permits, and waivers needed to provide End User Materials (as defined in Section 5.b below) and other materials, data, or information provided by Platform Client to Tremendous hereunder, and that End User Materials and any other materials, data, and information provided to Tremendous will comply with all applicable law, and will not violate or infringe any third-party’s intellectual property, privacy rights, or proprietary rights; and

  4. PRE-FUNDING A BALANCE

    1. Platform Client Funding a Balance. Pursuant to its agreement(s) with End Users, a Platform Client may fund a Balance on behalf of End Users. In the event a Platform Client directly funds a Balance, it represents and warrants that it has the appropriate license, registration, or other authorization to transmit End User-owned funds to Tremendous.

    2. End Users Funding a Balance. After completing the identity verification process, Tremendous may, in its sole discretion, authorize End Users to directly fund one or more Balances associated with the Platform Client’s Tremendous Account.

    1. Marks. To the extent Platform Client desires to include or otherwise use the trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, other proprietary designs and designations, and other indicia of source or origin of an End User (the “End User’s Marks”) in its use of the Services, Platform Client represents and warrants that it has the authority to and hereby does grant to Tremendous during the Term a non-exclusive, royalty-free, non-assignable, worldwide license to use (but not the right to sublicense) End User’s Marks (and the registration that exist for such Marks, if any) solely to the extent that: (i) Platform Client authorizes in connection with this Agreement, (ii) such use is necessary for Tremendous to perform its obligations hereunder, (iii) Platform Client approves in connection with any press release, and (iv) Tremendous may identify Platform Client and End User as a customer of Tremendous in marketing materials. As between the parties, title to and ownership of End User’s Marks remain with Platform Client and all use of End User’s Marks will inure to the sole benefit of Platform Client.
