CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ERROR RESOLUTION POLICY

FOR

GOOGLE PAY ACCOUNT TRANSACTIONS

Applicability: This Google Pay Customer Service and Error Resolution Policy for
Google Pay Account Transactions ("Policy") applies to Google Pay Balance Card
(“GPB Card”) transactions and other Google Pay account transactions (which
transactions are collectively referred to as “Services” in this Policy)
affecting a Google Pay user (“Customer”). These Services are provided to you by
Google Payment Corp. ("GPC").

This Policy does not apply to transactions with the Processing Service for Third
Parties or other Google Pay features. This Policy also does not apply to Google
Pay features or other services provided to you by Google affiliates of GPC.
Please see the Google Pay/Google Payments Additional Terms of Service (U.S.) for
information relating to these features or other services.

For purposes of these disclosures, the business days of GPC are Monday through
Friday. Holidays are not included as business days.

Capitalized terms used in this Policy have the meanings stated in the Google
Pay/Google Payments Additional Terms of Service (U.S.), unless otherwise defined
in this Policy.

Section 1. Cancellation or Refunds Generally

Except as stated in the "EFT Error Resolution Policy" section below, all
payments processed through the Services are non-refundable to you. You may not
use the Services to reverse, chargeback or cancel a completed payment
transaction using the Services.

Section 2. Rights With Your Account Holding Financial Institution

In addition to the rights you have under this Policy, you also may have refund
or other rights under your agreement with the financial institution holding your
Funding Account. You would need to contact your financial institution and/or
review your agreement with the financial institution governing your Funding
Account for more information.

Section 3. Disputes With Merchants

Customers are solely responsible for disputes with merchants, and GPC is not a
party to and will not be responsible for any disputes between a Customer and a
merchant.



Section 4. EFT Error Resolution Policy

This Section 5 - EFT Error Resolution Policy only applies to Google Pay
transactions subject to the Electronic Fund Transfer Act. In particular, we
apply this Section 5 - EFT Error Resolution Policy to:

 * Error claims regarding funds received by a consumer Customer to a Google Pay
   Balance from a debit card, or via ACH from a checking or savings account;
 * Error claims regarding funds reflected in a Google Pay account or Google Pay
   Balance (as applicable) transferred by a consumer Customer to a debit card,
   or via ACH to a checking or savings account;
 * Error claims regarding purchases paid for with a Google Pay Balance or GPB
   Card held by a consumer Customer or any other Google Pay Balance or GPB Card
   transaction of the consumer Customer; and
 * Error claims on a Google Pay Balance held by a consumer Customer.

This EFT Error Resolution Policy DOES NOT apply to payments to a Seller through
the Processing Service for Third Parties.

A. Notification to GPC of An Error on Your Google Pay Transaction or GPB Card
Transaction Subject To This Section 5 - EFT Error Resolution Policy

In the event that you think that there is an error in your Google Pay
transaction or GPB Card transaction subject to this Section 5 – EFT Error
Resolution Policy, or you have questions or need more information about that
Google Pay transaction or GPB Card transaction, please contact us via our
Contact Us page, by using one of these forms, or by calling 1-888-986-7944.

We must hear from you via one of the methods described above no later than 60
days after we made available to you the FIRST statement or other documentation
regarding the Google Pay transaction or GPB Card transaction on which the
problem or error appeared.

(1) Tell us your name and your email address associated with your Google Pay
account.

(2) Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about and explain as
clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more
information.

(3) Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.

For your GPB Card transaction or your Google Pay Balance funded from your
checking or savings account or from your debit card, we may extend this 60-day
notification period if a delay resulted from your initial attempt to notify the
financial institution holding your Funding Account.

If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or
question in writing within 10 business days.

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 issue a provisional credit to your Google Pay
Balance, funds held by us and reflected in your Google Pay account interface (if
no activated Google Pay Balance) or Funding 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.

For errors involving new Google Pay accounts or foreign-initiated transactions,
we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new
Google Pay accounts, we may take up to 20 business days to issue a provisional
credit to your Google Pay Balance, funds held by us and reflected in your Google
Pay account interface (if no activated Google Pay Balance) or Funding Account
for the amount you think is in error.

We will tell you the results within 3 business days after completing our
investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written
explanation by email or U.S. mail. If we had issued a provisional credit to your
Google Pay Balance, funds held by us and reflected in your Google Pay account
interface (if no activated Google Pay Balance) or Funding Account for the error,
such credit will be reversed and the written explanation will include notice of
such reversal. You may ask for copies of the documents that we relied on in
making our determination that there was no error.

ALL QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR GPB CARD TRANSACTIONS OR YOUR GOOGLE PAY BALANCE FUNDED
FROM YOUR CHECKING OR SAVINGS ACCOUNT OR FROM YOUR DEBIT CARD MUST BE DIRECTED
TO US, GPC, AND NOT TO THE FINANCIAL INSTITUTION WHERE YOU HAVE YOUR FUNDING
ACCOUNT. We are responsible for the Services and for resolving any errors in
your Google Pay transaction subject to this Section 5 – EFT Error Resolution
Policy.



IF YOUR GOOGLE PAY ACCOUNT USERNAME AND PASSWORD, OR YOUR GPB CARD PIN IS LOST
OR STOLEN, NOTIFY US AT ONCE by calling or writing to us at the telephone number
and address indicated above.

B. Unauthorized Payment Transactions

Statement of Your Liability. Please tell us IMMEDIATELY if you believe your
Google Pay account username and password or your GPB Card PIN has been lost or
stolen. You may contact us via our Contact Us page, by using one of these forms,
by calling 1-888-986-7944, or by writing to us at:

Google Payment Corp. – Complaints Handling

P.O. Box 727

Mountain View, CA 94042

Please be aware that you could lose all the money in your Google Pay Balance or
held by us and reflected in your Google Pay account interface (if no activated
Google Pay Balance) or your Funding Account.

If you inform us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of
your Google Pay account username and password or your GPB Card PIN, you can lose
no more than $50 if someone used your Google Pay account username and password
or GPB Card without your permission. However, if you do NOT inform us within 2
business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Google Pay account
username and password or your GPB Card PIN, and we can prove we could have
stopped someone from using your Google Pay account username and password or GPB
Card without your permission if you had informed us, you could lose as much as
$500.

Also, if your Google Pay account statement shows GPB Card transactions or other
transfers that you did not make, please tell us at once. If you do not tell us
within 60 days after the statement was made available to you, you may not get
back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have
stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.

If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) prevents you from
informing us within the 60-day time period, we may extend the time periods.

Contact in event of unauthorized Google Pay account, GPB Card transactions or
Google Pay Balance transfers. If you believe your Google Pay account username
and password, your GPB Card PIN or your GPB Card has been lost or stolen or that
someone has initiated a GPB Card transaction or otherwise transferred money from
funds we hold and reflect in your Google Pay account (if no activated Google Pay
Balance) or your Google Pay Balance without your permission, contact GPC as
indicated above in the "Statement of Your Liability" section.

C. Our Liability to You For Errors Involving Google Pay Transactions or GPB Card
Transactions Subject To This Section 5 - EFT Error Resolution Policy

If we do not complete a Google Pay transaction or GPB Card transaction subject
to this Section 5 – EFT Error Resolution Policy on time or in the correct amount
according to our Terms of Service agreement, we will be liable for your losses
or damages to the extent required under the federal Electronic Fund Transfer
Act. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:

(1) If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your Google
Pay Balance, funds held by us and reflected in your Google Pay account interface
(if no activated Google Pay Balance) or other Payment Method to make the Google
Pay transaction or GPB Card transaction.

(2) If, through no fault of ours, a merchant refuses to accept your GPB Card or
honor a transaction using your Google Pay Balance or other Payment Method.

(3) The merchant authorizes an amount greater than the purchase amount.

(4) If the Service was not working properly and you knew about the problem with
the Service when you started the Google Pay transaction or GPB Card transaction.

(5) If the transaction information supplied by you or a third party is incorrect
or untimely.

(6) If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent us from
completing the Google Pay transaction or GPB Card transaction, despite
reasonable precautions that we have taken.

(7) If access to or use of your GPB Card has been blocked after you reported
your GPB Card PIN lost or stolen.

(8) If there is a hold or your funds are subject to legal process or other
encumbrance restricting their use; or

(9) If we have reason to believe the requested transaction is unauthorized.

There may be other exceptions set forth in the Google Pay/Google Payments
Additional Terms of Service (U.S.), this Customer Service and Error Resolution
Policy or our other agreements with you.

Section 6. DISCLAIMER OF ANY OTHER LIABILITY. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE STATED ABOVE
OR AS PROVIDED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL GPC BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES FOR DELAY,
NONDELIVERY, NONPAYMENT OR UNDERPAYMENT OF A PAYMENT TRANSACTION, WHETHER CAUSED
BY AN ACT OR OMISSION OF GPC, ITS EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR OTHERWISE. THE SOLE
REMEDY AGAINST GPC SHALL BE LIMITED TO REFUND TO CUSTOMER OF THE PRINCIPAL OF
THE PAYMENT TRANSACTION AMOUNT PLUS FEES AND CHARGES, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE
PROVIDED BY LAW. IN NO EVENT SHALL GPC BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE
PROVIDED BY LAW.
