Each tier of Services is further outlined below.
5.2. Overview of Basic Services
The following Services are offered to all Fizz users (each, a “Basic Service”):
the ability to check your credit score;
a basic budgeting overview (including monthly spend analysis);
certain limited financial literacy courses and resources; and
in-App customer support and chat.
Fizz users who, as of September 16, 2024 (the “Transition Date”), had already accepted a Fizz Card and were not actively paying a membership fee (“Existing Free Users”) may continue to use their Fizz Card and the Basic Services at no additional charge for a period of at least forty-five (45) days from the Transition Date, which period Fizz may extend indefinitely or, in accordance with applicable law, terminate in its sole discretion; provided, that such Existing Free Users remain in good standing and otherwise continue to abide by this Agreement and the Terms, as applicable.
5.3. Membership
5.3.1. Overview of Membership Services
In addition to all of the Basic Services, the following Services are offered to Fizz users (“Members”) who have access to the paid tier of Services offered by Fizz (each, a “Membership Service”):
access to a suite of financial literacy resources;
tailored spending tracking and insights;
smart budgeting;
financial literacy materials and programs; and
additional credit monitoring resources and insights.
The Spotting Service (as defined below) may also be available to Members who choose to apply for it. However, Members are not required to apply for the Spotting Service, nor does being a Member ensure that you will be approved for the Spotting Service.
If you are not, and have not been, an Existing Free User or Existing Member (as defined below) and you have not already enrolled in the Membership Services, you may apply for the Spotting Service without becoming a Member, subscribing to the Membership Services, or paying a Subscription Fee. To do so, please email [email protected] with the subject line “Request Free Application” and state that you would like to apply for the Spotting Service without paying the Subscription Fee. Please note that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable terms of this Agreement, as well as the Cardholder Agreement and LOC Agreement (each, as defined below), will continue to apply to your eligibility for and access to the Spotting Services.
5.3.2. Fizz Membership
5.3.2.1. Subscription Fee
The Membership Services are subject to a monthly or annual subscription fee (the “Subscription Fee”). The current amount of the Subscription Fee is disclosed {https://joinfizz.com/policies/fee} (the “Fee Table”). Your subscription to the Membership Services will continue and automatically renew monthly (for monthly subscriptions) or annually (for annual subscriptions) until terminated or until you revoke your authorization, as detailed below. Notwithstanding the prices disclosed in the Fee Table, the Subscription Fee may be less for students or if you accept a promotional offer, or more to account for other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services, such as taxes and possible transaction fees. For example, the Subscription Fee may be discounted from time to time by our customer service team, or through partnerships with third parties or affiliates. The discounted price may be for a limited time, which will be disclosed to you at the time the discount is given. Fizz may offer free trial periods subject to certain terms and conditions. Fizz may, in its sole discretion, choose whether to offer a monthly Subscription Fee option, an annual Subscription Fee option, or both. In addition, some subscription plans may have differing conditions and limitations, which will be disclosed at your sign-up or in other communications made available to you.
Users who, as of the Transition Date, had already accepted a Fizz Card and were actively paying a membership fee and who are in good standing (“Existing Members”) may be grandfathered in as a Member and have access to the Membership Services at the price of their existing membership subscription fee for a period of at least forty-five (45) days from the Transition Date, which period Fizz may extend indefinitely or, in accordance with applicable law, terminate in its sole discretion; provided, that such Existing Members remain in good standing and otherwise continue to abide by this Agreement and the Terms, as applicable. Fizz will notify Existing Members to the extent required by the Terms and applicable law before making any changes to the fee charged to Existing Members.
We may change our subscription plans and the price of the Subscription Fee from time to time. If a price change affects you, we will notify you in advance and in accordance with applicable law before any price changes become effective. If you do not wish to accept the price change, you can cancel your subscription before the change takes effect.
5.3.2.2. Billing
If you choose to subscribe to the Membership Services, you are required to link at least one U.S.-based bank account (an “Connected Bank Account”) for payment of the Subscription Fee. We will automatically charge your Connected Bank Account for the Subscription Fee on your Renewal Date (as defined below) unless and until (i) you cancel your subscription to the Membership Services, (ii) you have withdrawn your authorization allowing us to charge your Connected Bank Account (as provided below), or (iii) your Fizz Account is otherwise terminated; provided, that charges initiated on weekends or holidays may not be effected until the following business day.
The Subscription Fee will typically be charged to your Connected Bank Account on the specific renewal date indicated in the App (the “Renewal Date”). For monthly subscriptions, your Renewal Date will generally be determined by adding one month to the date you first subscribed to the Membership Services (the “Subscription Date”) or the prior Renewal Date, as applicable. For example, if your Renewal Date is May 15, your next Renewal Date would be June 15. For annual subscriptions, your Renewal Date will generally be determined by adding one year to the Subscription Date or prior Renewal Date, as applicable. For example, if you had a Subscription Date of May 15, 2024, your Renewal Date would be May 15, 2025. We reserve the right to change your Renewal Date after providing you with prior advance notice in accordance with applicable law. Upcoming dates upon which you will be charged for subsequent Subscription Fees will also be displayed in the App. In some cases, your payment date may change, for example, if your Connected Bank Account has not successfully settled or appears to have a balance below the Threshold Value (as defined below), when you change your subscription plan, if your Renewal Date falls on a holiday or weekend, or if your Subscription Date began on a day not contained in a given month.
You agree to immediately update your Connected Bank Account details in the event of any change in your payment information. If we cannot charge your Connected Bank Account for any reason (such as expiration or insufficient funds) on the Renewal Date, and you have not cancelled your subscription, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. We reserve the right to cancel your subscription if we are unable to successfully charge your Connected Bank Account to renew your subscription, or if your Connected Bank Account cannot be verified, is invalid, or is otherwise not acceptable. Fizz reserves the right to collect any outstanding amounts due and may transfer the collection of your outstanding balance to a third-party collection agency. We may change the permitted methods of payment from time-to-time as well.
For instructions on cancelling your subscription, please see Section 5.3.6. or contact us via the in-App chat or at [email protected].
5.3.2.3. Credit and Debit Authorization For the Subscription Fee
Consistent with Section 5.3.2., you authorize Fizz (or a third party on our behalf) to electronically debit your Connected Bank Account for the Subscription Fee, once each month for monthly subscriptions or once annually for annual subscriptions. You agree that Fizz will generally debit your Connected Bank Account on your Renewal Date (or the next business day following the Renewal Date, if applicable). However, you acknowledge and agree that, if Fizz, in its sole discretion, determines that your Connected Bank Account balance appears to have insufficient funds such that debiting the Subscription Fee might cause you to incur an overdraft fee (the “Threshold Value”), Fizz (or a third party on our behalf) is authorized to wait to submit the debit or to make additional attempts to debit your Connected Bank Account on the earlier of (i) the date that is twenty one (21) days after your missed Renewal Date (or the next business day, if applicable) and (ii) the date on which your Connected Bank Account balance appears to be above the Threshold Value. We are not liable for any overdrafts. You are responsible for ensuring that the balance in your Connected Bank Account can accommodate the Subscription Fee. As applicable, you also authorize Fizz to electronically debit and credit your Connected Bank Account to correct erroneous debits and credits. You have the right to receive notice of any debit for the Subscription Fee that would vary in amount from a previous Subscription Fee, but you agree that we only need to notify you in advance of a particular debit from your Connected Bank Account if such debit would be an amount greater than the Subscription Fee amount that you originally accepted.
You acknowledge that, as applicable, the electronic authorization contained in this Section represents your written authorization for automated clearinghouse transactions as provided herein and will remain in full force and effect until you notify Fizz that you wish to revoke this authorization by contacting customer support via the in-App chat or by emailing [email protected]. You must notify Fizz at least three (3) business days before the scheduled debit date in order to cancel this authorization. If we do not receive notice at least three (3) business days before the scheduled debit date, we may attempt, in our sole discretion, to cancel the transaction. However, we assume no responsibility for our failure to do so. When you contact Fizz, please include the name and telephone number associated with your Fizz Account. Failure to provide correct and complete information may make it impossible for Fizz to stop withdrawal of the preauthorized withdrawal. If you successfully revoke this authorization in accordance with this Section, you may nonetheless continue to use the Membership Services for so long as you remain an active Member in good standing, including, without limitation, continuing to pay the Subscription Fee.
In addition to any of your other obligations, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Fizz from and against any loss incurred as a result of its withdrawal of a preauthorized debit transaction from your Connected Bank Account if any of the information relied upon in your request to stop payment is incorrect or incomplete.
You represent and warrant to Fizz that you have the right to authorize us to charge your Connected Bank Account for payments due to us under this Agreement. You further represent and warrant that the credit and debit transactions you request or authorize comply with applicable law.

To be eligible to apply for the Spotting Service, at a minimum, you must:

not have been suspended or removed from the Services;

have a U.S.-based bank account with a minimum account balance, which is assessed at the time you apply for the Spotting Service.
If you are approved for the Spotting Service, Lead Bank, a Missouri state-chartered bank (the “Originating Bank”), will extend a line of credit to you (the “Line of Credit”) by making deposits to your Fizz Card, up to a specified limit (your “Credit Limit”), when requested. You will be required to enter into a separate Line of Credit Agreement between you and Originating Bank (the “LOC Agreement”) which will govern your use of and access to the Line of Credit.
Please note that Issuing Bank only issues Fizz Cards and provides associated banking services; Originating Bank only originates the Line of Credit and provides associated banking services. Neither Issuing Bank nor Originating Bank provides the Services.
If you first gain access to the Spotting Service as a Member, then you must remain a Member in good standing to continue accessing the Spotting Service; failing to remain in good standing as a Member is a violation of this Agreement and may result in your loss of access to the Spotting Service.

Any funds held in or transferred through the Dwolla account are held or transferred by Dwolla’s financial institution partners as described in the Dwolla Terms of Service. You authorize Fizz to collect and share with Dwolla your personal information including full name, email address and your Connected Bank Account and routing number, and you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that data.

Fizz will provide customer support for your Dwolla account activity, and can be reached at [email protected].
5.3.4. Surprise Offers & Rewards
Fizz works with its partners to offer you a variety of promotions (“Surprise Offers”) that we may make available from time to time, and generally announced on the first Friday of each calendar month (the “Surprise Offer Day”). For the avoidance of doubt, any Surprise Offers and any rewards points offered to you in connection with any Surprise Offers will be considered “Rewards Programs” and “Rewards Points”, respectively, in each case, as those terms are used in the Fizz Promotional Program Terms and Conditions.
It is always your choice whether or not to participate in Surprise Offers. We may receive compensation from our partners for promoting their products and services to you. The technology we use to provide you with Surprise Offers is proprietary and, in finding those offers for you, we may elect to consider, ignore, emphasize, or de-emphasize relevant factors at our sole discretion. We do not guarantee that you will be presented with offers for any particular types of products or services or that you will meet the approval criteria for any particular offer. Fizz does not endorse, warrant or guarantee any third-party products or services available through the Services. While Fizz works hard to verify the rates, terms, and rewards offered by any particular advertiser or third party, Fizz does not guarantee that the rates, product terms, rewards, or other service terms provided by any particular advertiser or other third parties on the Services are actually the terms that may be offered to you if you pursue the Surprise Offer, or that they are the best terms or lowest rates available in the market. Acceptance of Surprise Offers may be subject to the third parties’ review and approval. If you elect to use or purchase products or services from third parties, you are subject to their terms and conditions and privacy policy. Certain Surprise Offers may be available to you only if you hold a Fizz Card.
By participating in the Surprise Offers, you acknowledge and agree to these terms and conditions, any terms and conditions set forth in the App related to any Surprise Offers, the Fizz Promotional Program Terms and Conditions, and the terms of any applicable third parties in connection with any Surprise Offers (collectively, the “Surprise Offer Terms”). The Surprise Offer Terms apply to the Surprise Offers made available in the App. Fizz’s terms and conditions related to Surprise Offers may be amended from time to time. Fizz may terminate the Surprise Offers program at any time at its sole discretion. Your continued use of the App signifies your acceptance of any subsequent modifications to the Surprise Offer Terms.
Eligible Fizz users may participate in the Surprise Offers by following the prompts in the App when a Surprise Offer is made available in the App or by using the Fizz Card at a participating partner location in accordance with the Surprise Offer Terms. The ability to earn cash back in connection with any Surprise Offers expires on the Surprise Offer Day at 11:59 pm Pacific Standard Time.
You agree to receive notice by email, in-app banner, or push notification of Surprise Offers in the App.
The Surprise Offers are void where prohibited by applicable federal, state, or local law.
5.3.5. Rewards
If you are eligible to participate in the Rewards Program, the Membership Services include the ability to earn certain bonus Reward Points.
We post the category or categories of purchases for which you may earn Rewards Points and the rate at which we calculate Rewards Points in the App. From time-to-time, you may select a qualifying category we make available and transactions made during the indicated eligibility period that meet the selected category criteria will qualify for three times (3x) the Reward Points you would otherwise earn for such transactions, or other bonus amount that we communicate to you, including through the App.
5.3.6. Cancellation and Refund Policy
The Subscription Fee is a monthly recurring charge for monthly subscriptions and an annual recurring charge for annual subscriptions.
HOW TO CANCEL: If you wish to cancel your subscription you may do so via the App by following the prompts provided after clicking on the “Fizz Membership” tab, scrolling down, and pressing “cancel membership.” You may also cancel your subscription at any time by contacting customer support via the in-App chat or by emailing us at [email protected].
If you cancel your subscription, your subscription will automatically close at the end of the current billing period. You must cancel before your Subscription Fee is charged in order to avoid billing for the subsequent billing period.
Subscription fees are fully earned upon payment. Payments are nonrefundable and there are no refunds for partially used subscription periods, unless required by law. If you believe that you have been incorrectly charged the Subscription Fee, please reach out to us at and we will evaluate your eligibility for a refund on a case-by-case basis. Refunds of all or a portion of your Subscription Fee are granted on a case-by-case basis. Any refunds issued to you will be made to your Connected Bank Account. The amount and form of any such refunds, and the decision to provide them, are at Fizz’s sole and absolute discretion. The provision of a refund in one instance does not entitle you to refunds in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate Fizz to provide refunds in the future under any circumstance.
We may suspend or terminate your Membership or your access to the Membership Services if you fail to pay the Subscription Fee, or if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you are misusing the Membership Services or have violated this Agreement, any applicable laws or regulation, or any other agreement between you and Fizz, or if you otherwise fail to maintain your Fizz Account in good standing, or if we discontinue or suspend the Membership Services of the subscription plan, or for any other reason or no reason at all.
5.4. Credit Monitoring
As part of the Services, Fizz may enable you to review a copy of your credit score or alerts derived from changes to your credit reports. Fizz may make all or part of these Services available for free to users of Fizz, even those who have not subscribed and paid a Subscription Fee.
You understand and agree that, by enrolling in any such credit monitoring services, you have provided “written instructions” in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, as amended (“FCRA”), for Fizz and its service providers to obtain your credit report, your credit score(s), and/or other information from your personal credit profile on a recurring basis while you have a Fizz Account and are enrolled in the credit monitoring service, and such information may be obtained from one or more of the three national credit reporting agencies (i.e., Experian Information Solutions, Inc., TransUnion, LLC, Equifax, Inc.) or any other credit reporting company (a “Credit Bureau”).
You understand and agree that, pursuant to such authorization, Fizz may access your credit profile, including without limitation, your credit report, credit score(s) and other related information, to, among other things, verify your identity, to provide your credit information to you, and provide you with credit monitoring and alerts. Fizz will not obtain or use your credit information to market credit opportunities or other products or services that may be available to you through third parties or for any other purpose other than expressly set forth herein.
5.5. Disclosures
5.5.1. General Disclosures
Fizz may charge a fee to access to certain Services, including those Services associated with the Membership Services. Any fees directly associated with the Fizz Card or the Line of Credit will be disclosed in the Cardholder Agreement and/or Line of Credit Agreement.
Fizz is not responsible for any overdraft fees, over-the-limit fees, insufficient fund charges, or any other bank fees that result from your failure to maintain a sufficient balance in your Connected Bank Account. Fizz monitors your balance and will attempt to ensure you have sufficient funds before debiting your account, but Fizz makes no warranties that an overdraft will not occur.
You understand that any credit score provided to you through the App is obtained from a Credit Bureau by Fizz. The credit score measures the probability that a person will continue to pay their debts on time. There are many different credit scores in the marketplace based on different models with different score values, and lenders and servicers use a variety of different credit scores to make credit decisions. The credit score provided within the Service is for educational/informational purposes only and is not intended for use by lenders. Fizz does NOT undertake any responsibility to monitor your credit report for activity, identify theft, or any other actions. Fizz’s Services enable YOU to monitor your credit score.
The credit score provided through the App may not be the same score used by your lenders or other commercial users to make credit decisions about you. The credit score can only evaluate the account information that appears on your Credit Bureau consumer credit report at a specific point in time. Accounts not reported to, subsequently deleted or amended from your Credit Bureau consumer credit report will not be reflected in your score.
5.5.2. Credit Repair Disclosure
You understand that neither Fizz nor any of the Services is a credit repair tool or a form of credit counselling service, and that Fizz makes no representation or promise that it will improve your credit score or profile or provide you with any assistance in that regard. None of our Services, including your ability to check your credit report and/or score through the App, is offered or provided with respect to the extension of credit by third parties. Fizz and its affiliates are not credit repair organizations or credit services organizations, and are not offering to sell, provide or perform any service to you for the express or implied purpose of either improving your credit record, credit history or credit rating, obtaining an extension of credit for you, or providing advice or assistance to you with regard to improving your credit record, credit history or credit rating.
5.5.3. MLA Disclosure
Federal law provides important protections to members of the Armed Forces and their dependents relating to extensions of consumer credit. In general, the cost of consumer credit to a member of the Armed Forces and his or her dependent may not exceed an annual percentage rate of 36 percent. This rate must include, as applicable to the credit transaction or account: The costs associated with credit insurance premiums; fees for ancillary products sold in connection with the credit transaction; any application fee charged (other than certain application fees for specified credit transactions or accounts); and any participation fee charged (other than certain participation fees for a credit card account).
In accordance with applicable law, Fizz screens applicants of the Spotting Service to verify whether an applicant is a covered borrower under the Military Lending Act. If an applicant is determined to be a covered borrower and is approved for the Spotting Service, Fizz will waive such applicant’s Subscription Fee for the Membership Services.

You shall cooperate as fully as reasonably required in the defense of any such claim. Fizz 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 Fizz.
14. 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 14.3 BELOW.
14.1. Election to Arbitrate
You and Fizz agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 14 (the “Arbitration Provision”), unless you opt out as provided in Section 14.3 below or your Claim is subject to an explicit exception to in this Arbitration Provision. 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 14.6 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, except that both you and Fizz retain the right: (a) to bring an individual action in small claims court (a “Small Claims Action”); or (b) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, the misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights (an “IP Protection Action”). Claims include matters arising as initial claims, counter‐claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.
14.2. Opt-Out of Arbitration Provision
You may opt out of this Arbitration Provision for all purposes by sending an arbitration opt out notice to [email protected], within thirty (30) days of the date of your electronic acceptance of the terms of this Agreement (such notice, an “Arbitration Opt-Out Notice”). 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. If you don’t provide Fizz with an Arbitration Opt-Out Notice within the thirty (30) day period, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any Claim except with regard to a Small Claims Action or an IP Protection Action, as expressly set forth above.
14.3. Judicial Forum for Disputes
In the event that (i) you or we bring an IP Protection Action; (ii) you timely provide Fizz with an Arbitration Opt-out Notice; or (iii) this Section 15 is found not to apply, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any Claim will be the state and federal courts located in Delaware and each of the parties hereto waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts. You and we both further agree to waive our right to a jury trial.
14.4. 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 will try to resolve the Claim informally by contacting [email protected]. Similarly, Fizz will undertake reasonable efforts to contact you (if we have contact information for you) to resolve any claim we may possess informally before taking any formal action. If a Claim is not resolved within 30 days after the email noting the Claim is sent, you or Fizz may initiate an arbitration proceeding as described below.
14.5. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO LITIGATE
Unless you timely provide Fizz with an Arbitration Opt-out Notice, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU 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 EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION.
14.6. NO CLASS ACTIONS
You and Fizz agree that the arbitration of any Claim shall proceed on an individual basis, and neither you nor Fizz may bring a claim as a part of a class, group, collective, coordinated, consolidated or mass arbitration (each, a “Collective Arbitration”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a claim to resolve any Claim against Fizz will be deemed a Collective Arbitration if (i) two (2) or more similar claims for arbitration are filed concurrently by or on behalf of one or more claimants; and (ii) counsel for the claimants are the same, share fees or coordinate across the arbitrations. “Concurrently” for purposes of this provision means that both arbitrations are pending (filed but not yet resolved) at the same time.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER YOU NOR FIZZ SHALL BE ENTITLED TO CONSOLIDATE, JOIN OR COORDINATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER INDIVIDUALS OR ENTITIES, OR ARBITRATE OR LITIGATE ANY CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, INCLUDING AS A REPRESENTATIVE MEMBER OF A CLASS OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIM (AS DEFINED ABOVE), ANY AND ALL SUCH RIGHTS ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVED. ANY CHALLENGE TO THE VALIDITY OF THIS SECTION 15.6 SHALL BE DETERMINED EXCLUSIVELY BY THE ARBITRATOR.
14.7. Arbitration Procedures
The party initiating arbitration shall do so with Judicial Alternatives and Mediation Services (“JAMS”). Claims involving claims and counterclaims with an amount in controversy under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’ most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules; all other Claims shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the applicable rule set, the “JAMS Rules”). If you have any questions concerning JAMS or would like to obtain a copy of the JAMS Rules, you may call 1(800) 352-5267 or visit their web site at: www.jamsadr.com. In the case of a conflict between the JAMS Rules and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the JAMS Rules apply. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the JAMS Rules. Arbitration will proceed on an individual basis and will be handled by a sole arbitrator. The single arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and will be selected by the parties from JAMS’ roster of arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within fourteen (14) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then JAMS will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Rules. The arbitrator(s) shall be authorized to award any remedies, including public injunctive relief, that would be available to you in an individual lawsuit and that are not waivable under applicable law. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this Section 14.7, if a party seeks injunctive relief that would significantly impact other Fizz users as reasonably determined by either party, the parties agree that such arbitration will proceed on an individual basis but will be handled by a panel of three (3) arbitrators. Each party shall select one arbitrator, and the two party-selected arbitrators shall select the third, who shall serve as chair of the arbitral panel. That chairperson shall be a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and with experience arbitrating or mediating disputes. In the event of disagreement as to whether the threshold for a three-arbitrator panel has been met, the sole arbitrator appointed in accordance with this Section 14.7 shall make that determination. If the arbitrator determines a three-person panel is appropriate, the arbitrator may – if selected by either party or as the chair by the two party-selected arbitrators – participate in the arbitral panel. Except as and to the extent otherwise may be required by law, the arbitration proceeding and any award shall be confidential. This Arbitration Provision shall be construed under and be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding any other choice of law set out in this Agreement.
14.8. Arbitration Location
Unless you and Fizz otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside, or if you so elect, all proceedings can be conducted via videoconference, telephonically or via other remote electronic means. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents that you and Fizz submit to the arbitrator, unless the arbitrator determines that a videoconference, telephonic or in-person hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules. Subject to such rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.
14.9. Arbitration Fees
If Fizz elects 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. However, if the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, at your request, we will pay all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). In such circumstances, fees will be determined in accordance with the administrator rules. Each party shall bear the expense of its own attorneys' fees, except as otherwise provided by law.
14.10. Arbitrator’s Decision
The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the administrator rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
14.11. Survival and Severability of Arbitration Provision
This Arbitration Provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. With the exception of Section 14.6 above, if a court decides that any part of this Arbitration Provision is invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. In the event that a court finds that all or any portion of Section 14.6 above to be invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Provision shall be deemed void and any remaining Claim must be litigated in court pursuant to Section 14.3 above.
14.12. Changes
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2 above, if Fizz changes this Section 14 after the date you first accepted this Agreement (or accepted any subsequent changes to this Agreement), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email to [email protected]) within thirty (30) days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last revised” date above or in the date of Fizz’s email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Claim between you and Fizz in accordance with the provisions of this Section 15 as of the date you first accepted this Agreement (or accepted any subsequent changes to this Agreement).
15. Governing law
This Agreement shall be governed by, and any Claim shall be resolved in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware.
16. Severability
If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable by either an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, this Agreement’s remaining provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent possible, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
17. Waiver
You agree that if Fizz does not enforce any of its legal rights or remedies under this Agreement, or other legal rights or remedies Fizz has under applicable laws, this shall not be construed as a formal waiver of those rights or remedies or any other rights in any way whatsoever.
18. General provisions
This Agreement is the entire understanding and agreement between you and Fizz. This Agreement supersedes any previous Terms of Use agreement or other agreement to which you and Fizz may have been bound. This Agreement will be binding on, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable against the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Neither the course of conduct between parties nor trade practice shall act to modify any provision of the Agreement. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement or your rights hereunder, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign this Agreement or any of our rights or obligations under this Agreement at any time without notice. All rights not expressly granted herein are hereby reserved. Headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section.
