4.11. Pay-forwarder.com will :

- Facilitate some communication between the Seller and the Buyer;

- Act as an agent of the payee to collect payment from Buyers on your behalf (also known as payment agent). By accepting this Agreement you appoint us as your limited agent just for the purposes of collection. Once we collect payment due, you agree that you have no claims against Buyer for such payment. Contract with Buyer: If a Buyer engages you for provision of Freight Services by making a Booking, the Booking agreement and any subsequent agreement that you enter into with the Buyer will be between you and the Buyer only. We don’t act as your insurer, broker, contracting agent or other representative. You acknowledge and agree that you, and not Pay-forwarder.com, are and will be responsible for providing the Freight Services and performing your other obligations under any agreements with Buyers, and we are not a party to such agreements and disclaim all liability arising from or related to such agreements. That said, in order to help us collect payment on your behalf, you agree upon our request to hold off releasing cargo to a Buyer if the Buyer has not fulfilled its payment obligations.

- Seller hereby appoints Pay Forwarder LLC as its agent for the limited purpose of receiving payment of shipping fees from Buyer on behalf of the Seller. Buyer further agrees and understands that any payment found to be received by Pay Forwarder LLC via her bank account, constitutes payment to the Seller and satisfies any Payer’s obligation to pay Seller, regardless of whether Pay Forwarder LLC actually settles such payment to Seller. In the event that Pay Forwarder LLC does not make any such payment to Seller as described in this Agreement, Seller will have recourse against only Pay Forwarder LLC and not against any Buyer.

- Occasionally we may need your help collecting from a Buyer. We may request and you agree that a shipment purchased through Pay-forwarder.com not be released so long as the Buyer of that shipment owes money to any Seller.

- Seller is fully and solely responsible for determining the correct VAT/tax consequences of the invoice for Freight Services.

4.12. No Endorsement of Buyers: We don’t endorse any Buyers. We are not obliged to conduct background checks on any Buyer, but we might do so on a discretionary basis and we may vet particular Buyers from time to time. Your access to and use of Pay-forwarder.com and the Pay-forwarder.com Services is at your own risk and we encourage you to do your own research and due diligence on any Buyer with which you may engage through a Shipment, just like you would if you found a Buyer outside of Pay-forwarder.com.

4.13. No Endorsement of Sellers: We don’t endorse any Sellers or Freight Services, and using the Pay-forwarder.com Services does not mean that you or your Freight Services are endorsed in any way by us. We don’t necessarily conduct background checks on any Seller, but we reserve the right to do so on a discretionary basis and you agree to cooperate with us and to provide us with all information we request from you in the event that we decide to conduct a background check on you as well as accurate information for us to place in your profile in the Pay-forwarder.com Platform. By virtue of selling on the Pay-forwarder.com Platform, you are not an agent, contractor, employee or affiliated entity of Pay-forwarder.com and we do not in any way supervise, direct or control your performance of Freight Services.

Pay-forwarder.com Payment Guarantee: Pay-forwarder.com acts as agent of the seller (beneficiary) and guarantees full payment of the amount stated in the seller's quote.

Pay-forwarder.com is not acting as a freight forwarder, freight forwarder, insurer, broker, contract agent, customs broker or other representative, nor is Pay-forwarder.com acting as a buyer, consignor, consignee, importer of record or main interested party. Sellers are responsible for performing all obligations related to the provision of freight services under any agreement with Buyer.

4.15. The Payment Guarantee will not apply in the following cases:

In the event of a dispute submitted by the buyer against the seller regarding the shipment, the payment guarantee will be suspended until the dispute is resolved.

Sellers can only initiate collection directly from the buyer for costs not provided for in the original purchase order. Any attempt to initiate collection directly from a Buyer in bad faith will void the Payment Guarantee. Seller must also ensure that its agents do not unfairly charge Buyers for any service.

If the seller releases the shipment when Pay-forwarder.com has instructed the seller to hold it, the payment guarantee will be voided for that shipment.

If Seller fails to fulfill its obligations for shipment as set forth in this document and related policies, the payment guarantee will be void.

If a seller fails to comply with Pay-forwarder.com's terms as detailed in this document or any of the policies referred to here, or if Pay-forwarder.com has received legitimate complaints about the seller's services from Buyers, Pay-forwarder.com reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to suspend Sellers' account or participation in Pay-forwarder.com. Sellers may choose to leave Pay-forwarder.com at any time by contacting contact@pay-forwarder.com. Deactivation may take up to 5 business days. In the event of withdrawal by Pay-forwarder.com or by choice of the Seller, they will remain obliged to provide all services for any Quotation reserved and to service any outstanding Shipment in accordance with this document.
