check under as further described, below.

determined based on the day of the month You purchase the Services
unless that date falls after the 28th of the month in which
case Your billing date will be the 28th of each month. If You

A. Good as Gold Prepaid
Services
Service Details.
By using Hostlords ’s Prepaid Services, You can transfer
funds to Hostlords in advance and use the balance of Your Prepaid
Services Account ("Account") as You please. You can
use Your Account to purchase any of the Software or Services
of Hostlords . As consideration for the Services purchased by
You and provided to You by Hostlords , You agree to pay Hostlords
in advance for the Services to be provided. Payment is to be
made by You providing either a valid credit card, wire transfer,
a money order, or personal check. Personal checks may only be
used for payments of $100 or more, and may not be made for less
than the amount required at purchase. Personal checks under
$1,000 are subject to the same processing fees as wire transfers.
All personal checks will be delayed fourteen (14) days until
the money is credited, which may delay Your usage of the Software
or Services. You agree that if the EFT or bank draft is returned
unpaid, You will pay a service charge of $25.00 or the maximum
amount allowed by law, which may be debited from Your account
using an EFT or bank draft.
You can verify the
remaining funds in Your Account at any time by logging in to
Manage Your Account or through the shopping cart on the Hostlords
Web site. Should You decide to terminate Your Account and seek
a refund of Your Prepaid Services, Your refund will be made
by check net of any discounts, including, but not limited to,
reduced or waived wire transfer fees and/or the Cash Discount.
You acknowledge that
funds transferred to Your Account will be held in an account
by Hostlords , which will not accrue or pay interest for Your
benefit. To the extent interest may accrue, if any, You understand
and agree that Hostlords shall be entitled to receive and keep
any such amounts to cover costs associated with the Prepaid
Services.
You acknowledge that
all transactions using Prepaid Services will be conducted in
U.S. Dollars and that it is Your responsibility to arrange for
foreign currency translations prior to funding Your Account.

be returned and You will be responsible for the cost of returning
such funds. Your Account must be funded on an initial basis
with no less than one hundred dollars ($100.00), paid in U.S.
funds. You agree that You will be responsible for all wire transfer
fees, both incoming and outgoing, associated with Your Account.
Any non-U.S. wire transfers may be subject to fees by either
Your bank, intermediary banks or Hostlords ’s bank, which
may reduce the amount of the money received by Hostlords ’s
bank and subsequently funded into Your Prepaid Good as Gold
Account. Customers funding a Good as Gold Account who wire $1,000
or more shall not be subject to a $20 wire transfer processing
fee from Hostlords . You hereby expressly give Hostlords permission
to reduce Your Account by the amount of wire transfer fees Hostlords
incurs in order to receive Your funds. All fees are subject
to change and will be updated online in this Agreement.
Prepaid Services
Accounts will receive a 2% discount on purchases (the "Cash
Discount"). The Cash Discount will be reflected in Your
Account balance. Thus, purchases will reduce the balance of
Your Account by 98% of the total purchase price of each transaction.
For example, if Your Account is funded with an initial amount
of $100.00 and You make a $10.00 purchase, Your Account will
be reduced by only $9.80. Hostlords reserves the right to discontinue
or change the Cash Discount at any time, without notice.
Your Use of Prepaid
Services
Use of funds in Your Account can only be made through the Hostlords
purchase process at Hostlords ’s Web site. Purchases may
not be made unless there are sufficient, available funds in
Your Account at the time of purchase to cover the entire purchase
amount, including any related fees as set forth herein or in
other relevant agreements.
Additional funds
may be added to Your Account at any time. The minimum increment
for funds transfers is one hundred dollars ($100.00).

to access Your Account activity and records from the Manage
Your Account link on Hostlords ’s Web site. Your Account
will show purchases and the amount of funds remaining in Your
Account. Hostlords reserves the right at all times to disclose
any information about Your Account as Hostlords deems necessary
