Terms of Service

Last updated: March 2, 2026

1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using Paymentron's invoice recovery platform and services (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Paymentron ("we," "our," or "us").

2. Description of Service

Paymentron provides an automated invoice recovery platform that helps businesses collect on overdue invoices. Our Service includes:

  • Integration with accounting systems (QuickBooks, Xero) to import overdue invoices
  • Automated collection communications (emails, SMS) sent to customers on your behalf
  • Branded payment portal for customers to pay overdue invoices
  • Payment processing through Stripe Connect
  • Recovery fee calculation and automatic deduction
  • Reconciliation and reporting tools

Paymentron is not a collection agency. We provide tools and services to help you recover overdue invoices. You remain responsible for compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, including the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and state collection laws.

3. Eligibility and Account Registration

To use our Service, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into contracts
  • Be a business entity or individual authorized to act on behalf of a business
  • Have a valid QuickBooks Online or Xero account
  • Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration
  • Maintain and update your account information to keep it accurate

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

4. Pricing and Payment Terms

4.1 Recovery Fee

Our Service uses a success-based, all-in-one pricing model. The recovery fee covers recovery services and payment processing (via Stripe Connect); there are no separate processing charges.

  • Fee: Tiered by invoice age at time of payment — 5% for invoices paid at 1–30 days past due; 10% for 31–180 days past due
  • Per-Invoice Cap: Maximum $1,000 per invoice
  • No Monthly Minimum: If you recover $0, you pay $0
  • No Subscription Fee: No monthly or annual subscription charges

4.2 Fee Calculation and Deduction

Recovery fees are automatically calculated and deducted at payout. The fee applies to any amount recovered on an invoice, including partial payments. Our fee is all-in-one and covers Stripe’s payment processing; you receive one net payment per transaction.

4.3 Payment Processing

All payments are processed through Stripe Connect. Paymentron is not a payment processor or merchant of record. Stripe handles payment processing, funds routing, and compliance. Our recovery fee covers processing; you receive payment net of the recovery fee only.
