By checking an opt-in box, clicking “I accept,” or otherwise accepting this Agreement on the sign-up page, installing the App, accessing any content on the Site, or otherwise engaging with the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to comply with the terms of this Agreement. If you are utilizing the Services on behalf of an entity, partnership, or other organization, you represent that you: (i) are an authorized representative of that entity with the authority to bind it to this Agreement, and (ii) such entity agrees to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, you are not permitted to utilize the Services.
Accountipro retains the right, at its sole discretion, to change, modify, or otherwise amend this Agreement, or any policy or guideline applicable to the Services, at any time. If Accountipro does so, reasonable efforts will be made to communicate these changes via notice on the Application and this Site.
Unless otherwise specified, any changes or modifications will take effect immediately upon posting the revised Agreement on this Site, and your continued use of the Services after such time will constitute an agreement to be bound by the updated Agreement. It is advisable to periodically review this Agreement. The Agreement will always display the “last updated” date at the top.
ARBITRATION NOTICE: By accepting this Agreement, you and Accountipro waive the right to a trial by jury or to participate in any class action or representative proceeding.

The Accountipro Services encompass a comprehensive range of accounting and financial tools and solutions, including but not limited to (i) professional bookkeeping services, (ii) tax preparation and assistance services, (iii) payroll management, (iv) business advisory services, and (v) facilitating communication with Third Party Servicers based on Customer instructions. Accountipro will deliver the Services to Customer throughout the term of this Agreement, contingent upon the payment of applicable Fees and adherence to the terms outlined herein. As part of the Services, Accountipro grants Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable right to utilize the Services, subject to the terms of this Agreement. It’s acknowledged that the Services are cloud-based and hosted, and no copies will be provided to Customer, except for (where available) the App, subject to the End User License Agreement (“EULA”). Customer agrees to use the Services solely for their own purposes, with no transfer of ownership or interest from Accountipro.
Accountipro does not conduct financial transactions on behalf of Customer.

Customer must promptly inform Accountipro of any errors in the provision or use of the Services. Accountipro will make commercially reasonable efforts to investigate errors but makes no guarantee regarding their correction. Customer agrees to provide any necessary information for error investigations. Certain payment transactions, like wire transfers, are irreversible, so Customer must exercise caution when initiating financial transactions through the Services.
Customer acknowledges that Accountipro will offer Tax Services only upon completion of a valid Taxpayer Disclosure Authorization, wherein Customer consents to the disclosure of specific tax information. Accountipro will not provide Tax Services until this authorization is executed. Furthermore, Customer agrees that Accountipro may engage third-party tax preparer services to fulfill their tax filing requirements. Any disputes regarding tax filings will be addressed directly with the third-party preparer, with Accountipro assuming no liability for filing errors.

This agreement becomes effective upon the date of signing a signed proposal or agreeing to these terms through any other means, such as clicking through an online agreement (the “Effective Date”). Your initial subscription term begins on the subscription start date and continues for the duration specified on your signed proposal (the “Initial Term”), unless terminated earlier.
At the end of the Initial Term and any subsequent Renewal Term, your subscription will automatically renew for the same duration as the Initial Term, at Accountipro’s then-current price, unless you provide us with notice (via info@accountipro.com) at least thirty (30) days before the end of the current Initial Term or Renewal Term. If there is an increase in subscription fees upon renewal, we will notify you via email sixty (60) days in advance. If you do not terminate your subscription within the thirty (30)-day period prior to the Renewal Term, your continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of the increased subscription fee.
We reserve the right to terminate your subscription at any time by providing notice of termination to the email address associated with your account. If we terminate your subscription for reasons other than your violation of unauthorized use of the Services or material breach of this agreement, we will refund prepaid fees for the unelapsed months of the Services.
Our subscription fees for Services are determined based on the information you provide about your business. It is essential that you furnish us with accurate and complete details to determine the appropriate subscription. If there are any changes to this information or if you request a modification to the scope of Services, we may propose a revised subscription corresponding to the updated information. We reserve the right to terminate affected Services or the Agreement if we cannot reach an agreement with you on the revised subscription. Subscription fees, including prepaid hourly Services, must be settled before or at the beginning of each subscription period and cannot be carried forward to subsequent periods.
Hourly Services and other additional Services not covered under your subscription will be invoiced at our prevailing standard hourly rate for the respective Service.
We may periodically revise our Service prices or alter the scope or subscription model of certain Services as our offerings evolve. In the event of an increase in your subscription fees or a significant change to the scope of Services provided, we will give you written notice at least 30 days prior to the start of your next Renewal Period. By continuing to use the Services beyond this notification period, you agree to pay the revised fees and authorize us to collect payment accordingly.
Accountipro is authorized to collect payment of Fees using a credit card, debit card, or other designated payment method. By providing payment details, you authorize Accountipro to charge all applicable Fees and taxes to the provided payment method. For credit card payments, Accountipro may pre-authorize the card to ensure sufficient funds are available.
If you activate or update recurring payments through our Services, you authorize Accountipro to periodically charge accrued sums on or before the payment due date until the expiration or termination of the Term.
