Service Pricing
Provider offers multiple types of service plans – including, without limitation, monthly and annual service plans. Your recurring service fee, if any, will be calculated based on the service plan presented to you and agreed to by you during service registration. In addition, you are responsible for all variable and transactional costs of using the service (including but not limited to: postage, fees for private carriers, package insurance, items purchased in the online store, if any, fees for additional users, or other special services selected) in addition to your applicable service fee, if any. Your recurring service fee, if any, will be calculated and billed based on the date you register and the terms of your offer. If you have registered for a monthly billing plan (like most Provider users), the monthly billing cycle ends each month after you register. For example, if you register on March 8, and you are provided a free trial offer, the first billing cycle will begin April 8, and the second billing cycle will begin on May 8. Provider bills in advance (i.e., at the beginning of the applicable billing cycle), if you cancel in the middle of a billing cycle you will not be refunded for your service fees and your account will remain available for usage for the remainder of that billing cycle. If you register for a free offer, but wish to avoid incurring the recurring service fee, make sure to cancel your account before the free period ends. To cancel, call Provider customer support at (469) 589-5061, Monday – Friday, 8 am – 8pm (CST), or do so online.
Account Cancellation/Termination
You may terminate or close your account at any time. However, depending on the service plan you selected, certain restrictions or fees may apply, as detailed below. To cancel, you may do so by 1) accessing your online account or 2) calling Provider customer support at (469) 589-5061, Monday – Friday, during business hours, other than major holidays. You will be asked to verify your account information and confirm your intent to cancel your account.
Monthly Service Plan. You are free to end your monthly service plan at any time.
If you terminate your monthly service plan during the free trial period you will not be charged any service fee.
If you terminate your monthly service plan within the first thirty (30) days from signing up, you will receive a full refund of any monthly service fees paid (you will not be refunded postage or insurance fees).
If you terminate your monthly service plan after the first thirty (30) days, your account will be handled as follows at the discretion of Provider: (i) either a pro-rated/partial refund of that month’s service fee will apply and your account will be closed immediately; or (ii) your account will remain open and accessible until the end of that month’s billing cycle, no refund will be given and the account will be closed and no longer accessible.
Annual Service Plan. You are free to end your monthly service plan at any time.
If you terminate your annual service plan during the free trial period you will not be charged any service fee.

Fees & Payment Terms
You agree to pay all fees and taxes associated with using our Services. In addition, you are responsible for all variable and transactional costs of using the service (including but not limited to: postage, fees for private carriers, package insurance, or other special services selected). All fees are in U.S. Dollars unless stated otherwise. Provider’s service fee and any other applicable fees due, including fees for postage or shipping (if applicable), will be automatically charged to account holder’s credit card, debited from the account holder’s debit card or collected via direct account withdrawal from the account holder’s bank account at the end of each billing cycle (as directed by the user), in the case of service and other fees alone. Account holders who use SellerChamp Carrier Services, will be automatically charged their monthly service fee as well as a preset amount at the beginning of each billing cycle. SellerChamp Carrier Services users will also be charged such preset amount each time the balance available in the SellerChamp Carrier Services is not sufficient to print a label requested by such a user. The minimum preset amount is $100 and the maximum is $1000. Higher auto pre-funding amounts may be set within the Provider Site. In addition to this, SellerChamp requires a monthly membership which covers use of all Services. Changes to fees and payment terms are effective immediately unless otherwise indicated, and it is your responsibility to check for any changes. Payment of SellerChamp invoices will be set-up and paid automatically through a credit card accepted by SellerChamp. All such payment information will be on file with SellerChamp. Failure by you to make all timely payments may result in SellerChamp immediately terminating all Services, at the sole discretion of SellerChamp. Furthermore, in the event your payment method fails or your account is past due, we may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms, which include but are not limited to retaining collection agencies and legal counsel to pursue collection.
Excessive Usage
Excessive users (Excessive Users) will be charged additional fees for SellerChamp services without notice. SellerChamp may deem a user an Excessive User in the event that SellerChamp determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such user is scheduling or launching items beyond the scope charged by SellerChamp pursuant to SellerChamp’s package prices. Examples of an Excessive User include, but are not limited to, a user that has: a. One calendar day where 100,000 or more items are uploaded and/or submitted to Amazon; or b. One calendar month where 500,000 or more items are uploaded and/or submitted to Amazon.
SellerChamp reserves the right to immediately terminate the accounts of all “Excessive Users at SellerChamp’s sole and absolute discretion. In addition, SellerChamp reserves the right to charge all Excessive Users additional charges beyond package prices to use SellerChamp Services. Such charges are part of our fees, and must be paid immediately in order to remain an SellerChamp user with an active account. The amount of these charges are in SellerChamp’s sole and absolute discretion. Companies, individuals, or other business entities, including but not limited to all affiliated entities will be deemed an “Excessive User” in the event that SellerChamp finds a user attempting to circumvent this Excessive Usage rule by setting up additional SellerChamp accounts that post to multiple eBay accounts.
Abuse, Suspension, Termination
Without limiting our other remedies, we may limit, suspend, or terminate our Services and your user account(s) at our sole discretion, without notice, and for any reason in the event we think you are abusing our services, you fail to follow the terms and conditions of this Agreement, you are creating problems or potential legal liabilities, you are infringing on the intellectual property rights of us, any of our affiliates, any third parties, or you are acting inconsistent with our policies or the spirit of our policies. In the event SellerChamp limits, suspends, or terminates your account, all monies paid to SellerChamp are non-refundable.

DiscountPost Transactions & Related Services
Third Party Partners: Certain shipping transactions may be offered through our DiscountPost service, including but not limited to the DiscountPost Advantage Program, which enables our customers to ship packages from the United States and international posts at discounted rates (hereafter, “DiscountPost”). We act as your carrier and are primarily responsible for the fulfillment of the DiscountPost services offered through our network of third party parcel processing facilities that are selected and directed by us (“DiscountPost Processing Facility”). If you ship eligible items to a destination through DiscountPost, you may first be required to ship the item through a DiscountPost Processing Facility which will then route the item to the destination address. You acknowledge and understand that we may direct one or more third party shipping provider(s) to oversee the processing, customs clearance, shipment and, to the extent applicable, the return of the item so long as your shipment meets the terms and conditions of this program and any other applicable third party requirements. Eligible shipment items and quantities are generally governed by the origin and destination country’s postal regulations, import and export laws, rules and requirements. Ineligible items that are shipped may be returned, seized, destroyed, or disposed of pursuant to such laws, rules and requirements. Please contact us for additional information about eligible items and quantities. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any losses, including all legal fees and expenses, that result from your shipment of a parcel that contains ineligible, restricted, illegal, or otherwise prohibited items. You acknowledge and agree that we have the absolute discretion to disable the DiscountPost service from your account.
Rates: You will be provided with a unique rate card based on information you provide to us during the onboarding process, such as your location, shipment volume/weight and pickup schedule (pickup days/times and frequency). You are required to provide us with at least 72 hours’ notice if, for any pickup, your shipment volume (parcel count or weight) increases by 10% or more. You may be required to obtain a new rate card if your shipment volume increases, or decreases, by 20% or more. We are not responsible for any unsuccessful pickups if you fail to provide us with required notice. A request for an increase in the frequency of pickups may be subject to additional fees.
Fees and Adjustments: We may change prices and fees, in our sole discretion, at any time. The fees for DiscountPost may include both DiscountPost and third party carrier fees. The total of the fees may be included within the shipping rates provided to you and may not be separately delineated from the overall charge. Rates for services charged will be based on the rates that are available for your account and may be updated by us in our sole discretion. For shipments where (a) you do not provide or provide incorrect shipping details about the parcel (such as weight, address, dimensions, dimensional weight, service type or package type), (b) shipment information is not legible, (c) the shipment has been tendered by you to the wrong carrier, or (d) the packaging is inadequate or improper, DiscountPost reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to either (i) deliver the parcel(s) at an increased rate that will be automatically charged to you, (ii) return the parcel(s) to you with the cost of the return and processing of the return charged to you, or (iii) destroy or dispose of the parcel(s), with the cost charged to you. In the event that the assessed rate cannot be calculated using the DiscountPost rates (for example, in the event that the actual weight of the shipment exceeds the maximum weight supported by the program), you will be charged for the replacement service, which may include a domestic label, if applicable. For example, you might be automatically charged for a domestic Priority Mail Retail Package (rated based on transportation from your facility to the third party shipping facility, and any balloon/oversized surcharges as required per USPS rates and requirements) plus the cost of a Priority Mail International Retail Package (rated based on transportation from the third party shipping facility to your intended international recipient, plus any balloon/oversized surcharges as required per USPS rates and requirements). Note that in the event that DiscountPost does not supply a domestic label, domestic Priority Retail Package rates will not be included in any adjustments.
Refunds: No refunds shall be applicable for a DiscountPost or third party carrier shipment that has been provided to any carrier. In addition, no rate credits shall be applied in the event your shipment could have qualified for a less expensive rate but you did not select that rate.
Undeliverable Parcels: A parcel is considered undeliverable if (i) the recipient’s address is incomplete, illegible, incorrect or cannot be located, (ii) delivery cannot be made because of the unavailability or refusal of an appropriate person to accept delivery or sign for delivery of the shipment on the initial delivery attempt or reattempts, (iii) the parcel is unable to clear customs, (iv) the recipient refused to pay for duties and taxes as required by that method of delivery, (v) the shipment of the parcel would likely cause damage or delay to other shipments or goods, or cause injury, (vi) the parcel contains restricted, illegal, or otherwise prohibited items, (vii) the parcel’s contents or packaging are damaged to the extent that re-wrapping is not possible. If the parcel is undeliverable for any reason, we may attempt to notify you and to arrange for the return of the parcel, subject to any local regulatory restrictions. Additionally, we may, in our sole discretion, return the parcel to you or destroy or dispose of the parcel. You will be liable for any and all costs, charges and fees incurred in returning or disposing of an undeliverable parcel. DiscountPost prohibits the shipment of any and all Tobacco Products under DiscountPost’s Global Advantage Program. The term “Tobacco Products” includes any product made or derived from tobacco that is intended for human consumption, including any component, part, or accessory of a tobacco product; the term includes, without limitation, cigarettes, e-cigarettes, cigars, e-cigars, e-hookah, vape pens, advanced refillable personal vaporizers, and electronic pipes. We reserve the right to refuse to accept, transport, or deliver any shipment containing Tobacco Products that we, in our sole and unlimited discretion, determine does not comply with our requirements for the shipment or any applicable law or regulation, and to discontinue any or all service to you for, among other reasons, tendering such a shipment. We reserve the right to dispose of any shipment containing Tobacco Products that shippers are prohibited from shipping, that we are not authorized to accept, that we state that we will not accept, or that we have a right to refuse. Any fees or charges that are associated with your shipment of Tobacco Products will be directly billed to your account.
Right of Inspection: You agree that we, our shipping partners, or any governmental authority including customs and security may open and inspect your shipment at any time. You acknowledge and agree that DiscountPost, our shipping partners, or any governmental authority may, at its sole discretion, decide to destroy or dispose of a parcel in the event a determination is made that such destruction or disposal, as the case may be, is required (for example, prohibited items are shipped through DiscountPost or there is suspected fraud associated with the transaction).
Sharing of Information: Notwithstanding anything in the Stamps.com Privacy Policy to the contrary, you consent to the disclosure of certain personally identifiable information, as well as shipping item information (including but not limited to recipient and package content information), by us and our partners to any third party shipping partner utilized as part of the DiscountPost service, and, in addition to other third parties (such as customs and revenue authorities, as well as other government agencies), in connection with the processing, export and customs clearance, and transportation of any shipment. we cannot control the privacy policies of its third party partners and their service providers and you hereby waive any claim related to the disclosure of personally identifiable or shipment information as part of DiscountPost.
