3.6 Limits and Available Spend.


(a) Generally. You may not make any Charge that would cause you to exceed or violate any of the limits set forth in this Section 3.6. Except as otherwise indicated in this Section, you may view these limits through the Dashboard.


(b) Total Spending Limit. When you open your Bankoff Card Account, we will establish a “Total Spending Limit” for your Bankoff Account, which will be the maximum aggregate amount available for Charges on your Bankoff Account across all Cards and Card Accounts. Your initial Total Spending Limit will be based on the amount of assets in your Asset Account. We may increase or decrease your Total Spending Limit at any time, in our sole discretion, based on your Bankoff Account and Transaction history, Asset Account, and related risk and credit considerations. You can request your Total Spending Limit any time by emailing us at [email protected]


(c) Card Spending Limits and Daily Spending Limits. We or your Administrator may set, and adjust from time to time, a Card Spending Limit or a Daily Spending Limit for any Card under your Bankoff Account.


(d) Available Spend. The aggregate amount available for Charges on Cards under your Bankoff Account at any given time (the “Available Spend”) will be the lesser of: (i) the amount of assets in your Asset Account, as determined by us in our sole discretion, minus the amount of any outstanding unpaid balance and holds on Cards under your Bankoff Account; or (ii) the Total Spending Limit. In addition, the amount available for Charges on a particular Card will be subject to the Card Spending Limit and/or Daily Spending Limit (if any) for that Card.


3.7 Other Limits. We may establish limits on the types of merchants with which Authorized Users may make Charges. Administrators also may establish these limits. Further, we may restrict the maximum amount of any particular Charge and the number of Charges allowed for your Bankoff Account and/or Cards. We reserve the right to (i) decline to authorize any Charges that would cause you to exceed any applicable limit, (ii) decline to authorize Charges at merchants characterized by the Card Network or us as prohibited or restricted merchants, and/or (iii) decline to authorize Charges, reverse Charges, and/or suspend Cards for any other reason, including for violation of this Agreement, suspected fraud, or creditworthiness or Network Rules. We are not responsible for losses resulting from declined or reversed Charges. Merchants typically accept all Card Network-branded Cards; however, we are not responsible and will have no liability if a merchant refuses to honor a Card. We further reserve the right to place a hold on a Card for any Charge. Where a hold is placed on a Card, the amount of the hold will reduce the Available Spend until the hold is released. We further reserve the right to prevent Cards from functioning outside of the United States.


3.8 International Use. In the event that Cards are used to make international Charges, Issuer will convert into U.S. Dollar the Charges made in a currency other than U.S. Dollar. We or the applicable Network will select exchange rates from a range of exchange rates available on the date the Charges are cleared over the applicable Card Network; therefore, the exchange rate of the Charge may vary from the exchange rate at the time of the Transaction.
