These Terms of Use (“Terms”), together with Veem’s Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy, govern your access to and use of the Services. By accessing or using the Services, you agree to them.

1. Services Overview
1.1 Payment Services. Veem acts as an “agent of payee,” providing accounts receivable services to collect and transfer funds on behalf of receivers, and accounts payable services on behalf of senders. Veem Payments Inc. is a licensed money transmitter in applicable U.S. states. Except for our limited role in processing payments you authorize or initiate, Veem is not involved in the underlying transaction. Veem is not a bank and does not provide traditional banking services.
1.2 Wallet Services. The Veem Wallet permits you to hold a balance of funds that may be used to send payments, transferred to your linked bank account or debit card, or used for other authorized transactions.
- Custody: Wallet funds are held in custodial accounts owned by Veem for the benefit of users, and may be commingled. You are the beneficial owner of your wallet funds.
- FDIC Eligibility: Veem is not an FDIC-insured depository institution. Wallet funds are held with Citibank, N.A., and may be eligible for FDIC pass-through insurance subject to applicable rules and limits.
- No Interest: You will not receive interest on wallet balances.
1.3 Virtual Bank Account (VBA) Services. Veem may issue you a U.S. bank account number (“Virtual Bank Account” or “VBA”) that enables you to receive deposits and to use the balance for payments made through Veem.
- Purpose: VBAs allow you to receive payments from third parties and to use the deposited funds as a source of payment for transactions initiated through Veem. You may not use a VBA as a general checking account; all withdrawals, transfers, or bill payments must be executed through Veem’s Services.
- Custody: Funds received into a VBA are credited to your Wallet under Section 1.2 and treated as wallet funds.
- Administration: Depending on the jurisdiction or banking partner, a VBA may be administered either (i) as a sub-account of Veem’s custodial accounts or (ii) as a separately administered account in your name with a partner bank. In either case, your rights and obligations under these Terms are the same, and all funds received into a VBA are functionally treated as Wallet funds.
- Use Restrictions: VBAs may only be used for lawful business purposes. You may not use a VBA for transactions with unknown or untrusted counterparties.
- Monitoring: All deposits are subject to compliance review. Veem may reject, delay, or reverse deposits that fail AML, sanctions, or fraud checks.
- Currency Conversion: Deposits may be held in USD or converted into other supported currencies in your Wallet per your instructions, subject to FX fees.
- Statements and Transaction History: You may access a complete transaction history for your VBA and Wallet at any time by logging into your Veem account. Transaction records include the amount, date, type, and counterparty information for each transaction. Veem will provide periodic account statements electronically in accordance with Section 4 (Consent to Electronic Communications).
- Error Reporting: You must promptly review all transaction activity and report errors or unauthorized transactions as provided in Section 5 (Electronic Funds Transfer Agreement), if applicable, or Section 3.6 of these Terms. Failure to report promptly may affect your ability to recover funds.
- Termination: Veem may revoke or reassign VBAs at any time upon reasonable notice. Upon account closure, your VBA will be deactivated and any remaining balance will be returned to you in accordance with Section 2.10.
2. User Accounts
- Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and a legal resident of a country where Veem operates. Businesses must be duly organized and authorized to conduct business.
- Registration: You must provide accurate and verifiable information, including identity and business details. Federal law requires verification of certain information before your account is fully active.
- Identity Authentication: You authorize Veem, directly or through third parties, to verify your identity and business information. This may include requesting documentation, credit reports, or database checks.
- Continuing Validation: Veem may request updated information at any time, including details on beneficial owners, principals, or business activities. Failure to comply may result in suspension or termination.
- Business Representatives: If you register on behalf of a business, you represent that you have authority to bind the business. Veem may request documentation of such authority.
- Account Responsibility: You are responsible for all activity under your account, including by representatives or authorized users.
- Security: You must safeguard your login credentials. Notify us immediately of unauthorized access.
3. Using the Services
- Funding: You may fund transactions through bank transfers, debit/credit cards, wallet balance, or VBA deposits.
- ACH Authorization: You authorize Veem to initiate electronic debits and credits to and from your designated bank account(s) via the Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) network in accordance with your instructions. This includes resubmission of ACH debits returned for insufficient or uncollected funds, and debits necessary to recover fees, reversals, or other amounts you owe. You agree to maintain sufficient funds to satisfy your obligations and to reimburse Veem for costs incurred as a result of returned debits. Your authorization remains in effect while you maintain a Veem account. You agree to be bound by the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA).
- Sending & Receiving: You may use the Services to pay for or receive payments related to legal goods and services, as well as for documented intercompany transfers between affiliated entities.
- Payment Reviews: Veem may place a hold, delay, or cancel a payment pending review for fraud, money laundering, sanctions, or other compliance reasons.
- Refused & Refunded Transactions: A receiver is not required to accept a payment. Unclaimed or refused payments will be returned to your account within 30 days of initiation. To request a refund, submit a written request to [email protected]. Veem will refund all moneys received for transmittal within ten days of receipt of a written refund request, to the extent required by applicable law.
- Errors & Unauthorized Transactions: You must review your account activity and notify Veem of errors or unauthorized transactions promptly. Veem will investigate and correct processing errors. If you are an individual using the Services for personal, family, or household purposes, the error resolution procedures and liability limits in Section 5 (Electronic Funds Transfer Agreement) apply. For all other users, notify Veem at once of suspected errors; Veem will investigate and, if an error is confirmed, correct it within a reasonable time.
- Funds in Settlement Process: Veem may hold funds in settlement in custodial accounts for the benefit of users. These funds are not corporate assets and are not available to Veem’s creditors.
- Refunds & Reversals: Payments may be reversed for insufficient funds, fraud, disputes, or errors. Refunds will be returned to the original source or Wallet.
- Instant Deposit: If available, settlement speed depends on your bank and card issuer. Fees apply and are non-refundable regardless of settlement timing. Veem reserves the right to restrict access to this feature at any time.
- Credit and Debit Card Payments: You may fund transactions using an eligible credit or debit card. Veem may charge a fee for card-funded payments, which will be disclosed at the time of transaction. By adding a card to your account, you represent that you are authorized to use it and authorize Veem to initiate charges in accordance with your instructions, including adjustments for errors. Veem may place temporary authorization holds to confirm card validity. By submitting a card-funded payment, you confirm that the underlying goods or services have been received to your satisfaction and waive any future disputes with Veem relating to the quality or timeliness of those goods or services. Card-funded payments are subject to limitations imposed by card networks and issuers. Certain industries or recipient categories may not be permitted. Your issuer may treat a payment as a cash advance, which could result in additional fees, changes to interest rates, or reduced rewards. You remain responsible for any reversals, chargebacks, or costs associated with your use of a card as a funding source. Veem is not responsible for the classification of transactions by your issuer or for any related fees or impacts on your card program.

5. Electronic Funds Transfer Agreement and Disclosures
Applicability: This Section 5 applies to you only if you are, or are acting on behalf of, an individual using the Services for personal, family, or household purposes. It does not apply to electronic transfers initiated through the Services to or from a business bank account, or for a commercial purpose. If this Section applies to you, by continuing to use the Services after receiving these disclosures, you consent to and accept the terms of this Section.
5.1 Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers. An “unauthorized transfer” occurs when an electronic funds transfer is made through your Veem account and you neither authorized that transfer nor benefited from it.
- If you notify Veem within 2 business days after learning that your login credentials have been lost or stolen or your account has been compromised, your maximum liability is $50.
- If you do not notify Veem within 2 business days and Veem can prove it could have stopped the unauthorized use, you could lose as much as $500.
- If unauthorized transfers appear on your transaction history and you do not notify Veem within 60 days after the transfer posted, you may not recover amounts lost after that 60-day period if Veem could have stopped the loss with timely notice.
- Veem may extend these time periods if a valid reason (such as hospitalization or travel) prevented timely notice.
You must notify Veem immediately if you believe your credentials have been lost, stolen, or compromised. Contact us through our customer support portal.
5.2 Contact for Unauthorized Transfers. If you believe an unauthorized transfer has occurred, contact Veem Customer Support immediately through the support portal at veem.com or call (877) 279-2629.
5.3 Business Days. For purposes of this Section, Veem’s business days are Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

5.5 Types and Limitations of Transfers. You may initiate electronic payment transactions to and from your linked accounts through the Veem Service. Veem may limit the frequency, availability, and dollar amount (on a per-transaction or cumulative basis) of transfers as provided in these Terms.
5.6 Fees. Transaction and subscription fees applicable to electronic funds transfers are available at veem.com/pricing.
5.7 Confidentiality.

5.8 Preauthorized Payments. If you have authorized regular payments from your account, you may stop any such payment by contacting Veem Customer Support at least 3 business days before the payment is scheduled. Veem may require written confirmation within 14 days of an oral stop-payment request. If Veem fails to stop a payment after receiving a timely request, Veem will be liable for resulting losses or damages. If regular payments vary in amount, Veem will notify you at least 10 days before each payment of the date and amount.
5.9 Veem’s Liability for Incomplete Transfers. If Veem does not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount, Veem will be liable for your losses or damages. Exceptions include:
- You do not have sufficient funds in your linked account through no fault of Veem.
- The Veem system was not working properly and you knew about the problem when you initiated the transfer.
- Circumstances beyond Veem’s control (such as fire, flood, or telecommunications failure) prevented the transfer despite reasonable precautions.
- Other exceptions as stated in these Terms.
5.10 Error Resolution. An “error” includes: an unauthorized transfer; an incorrect debit or credit amount; a transfer that does not appear in your transaction history; a transfer that appears incorrectly; a request for information needed to determine whether an error occurred; a status inquiry on a pending transfer; or a request for transaction documentation (other than a duplicate copy request or a request for tax or recordkeeping purposes).
If you believe there is an error on your account:
- Contact Veem as soon as possible, but no later than 60 days after the transfer or error posted to your transaction history.
- Provide your name, a description of the error, and the dollar amount of the suspected error.
- Veem may require your complaint in writing within 10 business days of an oral report.
Veem will investigate and determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days and will correct any error promptly. If Veem needs more time, it may take up to 45 days; in that case, Veem will provisionally credit your account within 10 business days for the amount in dispute. For new accounts, Veem may take up to 20 business days to credit and up to 90 days to investigate. Veem will notify you of the results within 3 business days of completing its investigation.

10. General Provisions
10.1 Indemnification. You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Veem, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and service providers (“Veem Parties”) from and against any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to:

Veem’s total cumulative liability to you is limited to the greater of: (a) the total fees actually paid to Veem by you in the three (3) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or (b) five hundred dollars ($500), in addition to refunding the affected transfer amount and any Veem fees directly charged on that transaction.
These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory of liability and even if Veem has been advised of the possibility of such damages. However, Veem’s liability for loss or misappropriation of user funds is not limited, and Veem will be fully liable for the return of all affected transaction amounts and related fees.
