Exchange rates can change frequently due to various economic and geopolitical factors, and the Company cannot guarantee a fixed rate. When submitting an international payment request, you will receive only an initial estimate or range. Additionally, both the Company and its International Payments Partners may apply a margin to the foreign exchange, which is a platform cost borne by you. This margin represents the difference between the wholesale or mid-market exchange rate and the actual rate used for the payment conversion.

  • Customization Fee: Charges associated with customization shall vary depending on the client requirement.

 Modifications to Fees

Volopay reserves the right to modify or update the fee structures and terms at its discretion, provided such changes do not adversely affect clients currently under contract. All changes will be communicated to affected clients in advance.

Activity-Based Fee Structure

For clarity, consider an example based on a Monthly plan, which applies similarly to all fee structures. The same approach is used for the Annual plan. Monthly fees are determined according to the selected plan, with the Total Payment Volume (TPV) processed through Volopay in a given calendar month dictating the applicable billing plan.

  • The Monthly Fee is billed on the account approval date and applies to subsequent months.

  • Clients must maintain sufficient funds in their Volopay account to cover the Monthly Fee. Accounts may be frozen if payment is not made within seven days of the billing date.

  • If TPV exceeds the allowed limit, the subscription will automatically upgrade, and the differential amount will be billed immediately. Downgrade requests must be submitted via email at in.support@volopay.co at least seven business days before billing start date. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing cycle, and no refunds will be issued.

  • Volopay reserves the right to modify or update the fee structures and applicable terms at its discretion, provided that such modifications or updates do not adversely impact clients currently under contract. Any changes to the fee structures will be communicated to affected clients in advance.

Payment Terms

  • Fees for Volopay software usage are billed and debited monthly via the payment methods provided by the client.

  • All purchases are non-refundable, and clients acknowledge that all sales are final.

  • All fees are exclusive of GST effective October 2025.

Inactivity and Account Suspension:

If your Cards and/or Accounts are inactive (i.e., not accessed or used) for a continuous period of six (6) months or more, they will be classified as "Inactive Accounts." Inactive Accounts will be immediately suspended and subject to review by the Company, which may include permanent closure. This applies to users outside of the active SaaS subscription period. Reactivation requests will be reviewed at the Company’s discretion and may incur fees.
