Zingoy shall also not be liable for any loss, harm, liability or damage suffered by the User, directly or indirectly, in this regard.

PAYOUTS

At Zingoy we follow a simple and a transparent payment mechanism. We collect and aggregate all commissions due to you, from one or various Merchants. We pay you on account of links converted into actual purchases through your account. You can always see your payouts on logging in on your ‘Dashboard’ of your Zingoy account.

Zingoy manages your affiliate links and takes care of your pay outs with each such Merchant. We follow the Net60 payment cycle. Zingoy would collect and aggregate all your commissions, due from our Merchants, and pay you your share at the end of 60 days (two months). We make payments via Direct bank transfer and by way of vouchers.

Payments by way of direct bank transfer

Once you have crossed the threshold limit of Rs. 100 as aggregate Zingcash, you would be entitled to receive the money from Zingoy in a given payment cycle. In case you opt to claim the cashback earned by you in your Zingoy account by way of a direct bank transfer, you would be required to opt for that method while claiming cashback. Once the User opts for cashback by way of direct bank transfer, the cashback amount would be transferred to the ‘active’ bank account as provided in the Zingoy User account. Users are required to mention the correct bank account details in their Zingoy registered User account and also to mark the correct account as ‘active’ account. Zingoy will not be responsible in any manner in case the cashback amount is transferred to an incorrect account due to incorrect bank details provided by the User. Users are required to deposit the necessary taxes, applicable if any, with the Government on the amount paid by Zingoy. Zingoy will in no way be responsible in case of non-payment of statutory tax liability by the respective User.

Purchase of gift vouchers

Alternatively, Users can also use the amount of cashback earned (i.e. Zingcash) for the purpose of buying vouchers on Zingoy website. The gift vouchers are issued in lieu of the cashback amount earned in the Zingoy account and are not a gift from Zingoy. Accordingly, Users are required to deposit the necessary taxes, applicable if any, with the Government on the amount paid by way of gift vouchers. Zingoy will in no way be responsible in case of non-payment of statutory tax liability by the respective User.

CHARGEBACKS

If a Merchant in the event of a sale, through your account, has any reason to believe that the sale so made is fraudulent, bogus or mala-fide, he may cancel or reverse, as the case may be, the amount payable to Zingoy, in relation to the sale in question. Also, it may so happen that the customer may be refunded his purchase money, in accordance with the Merchant’s website policy due to one or more reasons such as dis-satisfaction of the product/service received or faulty/wrong order delivered, or any other reason whatsoever. In such a case also, the amount accruing to Users’ account by the Merchant may be cancelled or reversed. The cancellation or reversal of the amount payable to the User is referred to as “Chargebacks”.

Chargebacks are generally communicated to Zingoy by its Merchants, on or before the 60th day on which the purchase was acknowledged by the Merchant. On such an event occurring, the User will be immediately notified of such cancellation or reversal of the commission due and payable to the Zingoy. However, sometimes Chargebacks may or may not be communicated by the Merchant to Zingoy. You understand and acknowledge that in such cases, Zingoy will not be able to inform you of the Chargebacks issued by the Merchants. Zingoy shall however intimate you of non-receipt of commission due from the Merchant, as and when amount is due and not received by Zingoy. Zingoy shall not in such a case be liable to reimburse or refund on the Merchant’s behalf, any sum which may be due to you.

Additionally, in the event of a Chargeback being wrongly issued on you, you may communicate the same to us via e-mail for redressal.

In the event of delay in intimation to the User by Zingoy or non-receipt of intimation released by Zingoy due to high internet traffic, transmission problems, telecommunication system failures or errors or any other Force Majeure event, Zingoy will not be liable to pay the Users any damage, loss, liability or expense which may have been incurred, suffered or borne by the Users in that regard, or any compensation for loss of profits, loss of business or notional loss of profits.

COMMUNICATION OF CHARGEBACKS AFTER THE CASH BACK HAS BEEN PAID BY ZINGOY

In some cases, chargebacks are communicated by the Merchants after the transaction has been confirmed as ‘validated’ and the cash back for such transactions is paid by Zingoy or the cashback is made available for purchase of vouchers on Zingoy. Zingoy will immediately notify the User of such chargebacks or cancellation of transactions. Such excess cashback paid by Zingoy or made available to the User by way of Zingcash is required to be repaid by the User to Zingoy within 15 working days from the date when the User is notified of such chargeback. In case, the User defaults in making the payment of excess cashback amount or refuses to repay the cashback within the aforementioned time frame, Zingoy reserves all the rights to recover the commission from the amount pending to be paid by Zingoy to the User or by taking legal action or any other legal remedy against the User, as Zingoy may deem fit.

CASHBACK

After a User successfully completes a transaction, and once we have received the resulting Cashback for that transaction, we pass that Cashback to the User as per the ‘Payouts’ and ‘Chargeback’ clause provided in the ‘Terms of Use’ document.

Please note that there are various circumstances in which a transaction with a Merchant may not constitute as a valid transaction, or Cashback may not result from it. The User understands that all transactions made by him/her are not with us, but with the individual Merchant. Further, from time to time Merchants may increase or decrease the pay-out amount in which case the cashback offer illustrated on our Site may be incorrect. By default, your applicable transactions will be credited in line with the pay-out reported to us by the Merchant, which may be more or less than the rate mentioned on Zingoy website. We shall not be liable for any difference in the expected cashback by the User and the actual Cashback received by the User.

Whether a transaction shall qualify as a valid cashback transaction shall be at the sole discretion of the Merchant or us and the User understands and agrees to the same. We shall not be held responsible if the Merchant fails to report a sale to us or does not qualify a transaction for cashback. Tracking the transactions and qualifying the same as eligible for cash back is at the sole discretion of the Merchant and Zingoy shall in no way be responsible for any failure by the Merchant to track a particular transaction. Further, we shall not be responsible in the event due to some technical or other error we cannot trace a sale back to the User and does not qualify the transaction for cashback for any reason, whatsoever. Whilst we will endeavour to recuperate non-payments from the Merchants, the decision of Zingoy, the Merchant or Merchant’s tracking details is final. Whilst we will try and recuperate missing pay-outs, at any point we reserve the right not to chase missing pay-outs, particularly where no purchase has been made or where the merchants does not provide reasons for non-payment of cash-back. Zingoy will be responsible for providing cash back to the users only if the same has been provided by the Merchants and only when the same has been qualified transaction for cash back by the Merchant.

We reserve the right to reclaim or make balance adjustments accordingly where it has been established that any credit has been applied in error. This will include but is not limited to transactions where the credit is not genuinely due or payment for any credited transaction has not been received from a Merchant and/or misuse or fraud. This can include transactions which are already marked as payable or validated in your Account, or for transactions which have already been paid over to you.
