The terms and conditions specified by the Transaction Partner are valid in all cases except when they contradict or violate this Agreement, are illegal, are unreasonable or otherwise difficult to comply with (as determined in Onboard’s sole and absolute discretion), or if both Users of the transaction consent to alter the terms and conditions of such offer.

8. Chargebacks
You are responsible for reviewing your Periodic Statements promptly and identifying any Charges that you believe are unauthorized or that you dispute.
If you and a merchant have a dispute regarding a Charge identified on your Periodic Statement, such as delivery of incorrect goods or services or being charged the wrong amount, you should first attempt to resolve the dispute with the merchant. If the dispute is not resolved to your satisfaction or if you believe the Charge is unauthorized, you may initiate a Chargeback through your Onboard Account. You must report any disputed Charge or error no more than 60 days after the disputed Charge is posted on your Periodic Statement. We may require additional details on the transaction and our review of your disputed Charge will be conditioned on you providing all of the information we may require to review the disputed Charge.
You understand that the Onboard Card is subject to Card Network rules regarding chargebacks. The Card Networks have additional established procedures for resolving chargebacks that may require you to provide further details of the disputed Charge or associated documentation.
Charges relating to disputed Charges and Chargebacks that are pending resolution may still be due and owing as of the date that payment is due as provided in the applicable Periodic Statement. Chargebacks resolved in your favor will be credited to your Onboard Account on either the current or a future Periodic Statement.

15. Dispute Resolution & Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS "DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION" PROVISION VERY CAREFULLY. IT LIMITS YOUR RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ISSUER.
Binding Arbitration:
(a) You and Issuer agree that any and all past, present and future Disputes (defined below) shall be determined by arbitration, unless your Dispute is subject to an exception to this agreement to arbitrate set forth below. You and Issuer further agree that any arbitration pursuant to this section shall not proceed as a class, group or representative action. The award of the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. “Dispute” means any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Issuer that arises out of or relates to (i) these Card Terms (including any addenda hereto or other terms incorporated herein by reference), (ii) the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity hereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of the agreement to arbitrate hereunder, or (iii) any Services (including, without limitation, the Onboard Card).
(b) This agreement to arbitrate shall be construed under and be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding any other choice of law set out in these Card Terms.
Arbitration Procedure:
(a) Before filing a claim against Issuer, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by providing written notice to Issuer of the actual or potential Dispute. Similarly, Issuer will provide written notice to you of any actual or potential Dispute to endeavor to resolve any claim we may possess informally before taking any formal action. The party that provides the notice of the actual or potential Dispute (the "Notifying Party") will include in that notice (a "Notice of Dispute") your name, the Notifying Party's contact information for any communications relating to such Dispute, and sufficient details regarding such Dispute to enable the other party (the "Notified Party") to understand the basis of and evaluate the concerns raised. If the Notified Party responds within ten (10) business days after receiving the Notice of Dispute that it is ready and willing to engage in good faith discussions in an effort to resolve the Dispute informally, then each party shall promptly participate in such discussions in good faith.
(b) If, notwithstanding the Notifying Party's compliance with all of its obligations under the preceding paragraph, a Dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after the Notice of Dispute is sent (or if the Notified Party fails to respond to the Notice of Dispute within ten (10) business days), the Notifying Party may initiate an arbitration proceeding as described below. If either party purports to initiate arbitration without first providing a Notice of Dispute and otherwise complying with all of its obligations under the preceding paragraph, then, notwithstanding any other provision of these Card Terms, the arbitrator(s) will promptly dismiss the claim with prejudice and will award the other party all of its costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with such Dispute.
(c) You and Issuer each agree to resolve any Disputes that are not resolved informally as described above through final and binding arbitration as discussed herein, except as set forth under Section 12.3 below. You and Issuer agree that the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules (the "Rules"). The Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a general Demand for Arbitration.) Arbitration will proceed on an individual basis and will be handled by a sole arbitrator. The single arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and will be selected by the parties from the AAA's roster of arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within fourteen (14) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules. The arbitrator(s) shall be authorized to award any remedies, including injunctive relief, that would be available to you in an individual lawsuit, subject to any effective and enforceable limitations of liability or exclusions of remedies set forth herein. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this paragraph, if a party seeks injunctive relief that would significantly impact other Issuer users as reasonably determined by either party, the parties agree that such arbitration will proceed on an individual basis but will be handled by a panel of three (3) arbitrators. Each party shall select one arbitrator, and the two party-selected arbitrators shall select the third, who shall serve as chair of the arbitral panel. That chairperson shall be a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and with experience arbitrating or mediating disputes. In the event of disagreement as to whether the threshold for a three-arbitrator panel has been met, the sole arbitrator appointed in accordance with this Section shall make that determination. If the arbitrator determines a three-person panel is appropriate, the arbitrator may -- if selected by either party or as the chair by the two party-selected arbitrators -- participate in the arbitral panel. Except as and to the extent otherwise may be required by law, the arbitration proceeding and any award shall be confidential.
(d) You and Issuer further agree that the arbitration will be held in the English language in New York, New York, or, if you so elect, all proceedings can be conducted via videoconference, telephonically or via other remote electronic means.
(e) Filing costs and administrative fees shall be paid in accordance with the AAA Rules; provided that the prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees, and out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the arbitration proceeding, in addition to any other relief it may be awarded.
(f) You and Issuer agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Rules, the arbitration of any Dispute shall proceed on an individual basis, and neither you nor Issuer may bring a claim as a part of a class, group, collective, coordinated, consolidated or mass arbitration (each, a "Collective Arbitration"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a claim to resolve any Dispute against Issuer will be deemed a Collective Arbitration if (i) two (2) or more similar claims for arbitration are filed concurrently by or on behalf of one or more claimants; and (ii) counsel for the claimants are the same, share fees or coordinate across the arbitrations. "Concurrently" for purposes of this provision means that both arbitrations are pending (filed but not yet resolved) at the same time.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER YOU NOR ISSUER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO CONSOLIDATE, JOIN OR COORDINATE DISPUTES BY OR AGAINST OTHER INDIVIDUALS OR ENTITIES, OR ARBITRATE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, INCLUDING AS A REPRESENTATIVE MEMBER OF A CLASS OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE, ANY AND ALL SUCH RIGHTS ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVED. Without limiting the foregoing, any challenge to the validity of this paragraph shall be determined exclusively by the arbitrator.
Small Claims:
Notwithstanding your and Issuer’s agreement to arbitrate Disputes, You and Issuer retain the right to bring an individual action in small claims court.
Class Waiver:
To the extent applicable law permits, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Card Terms, whether in arbitration or in court, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Card Terms or the AAA Rules, disputes regarding the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this class waiver may be resolved only by a court and not by an arbitrator. If this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither party is entitled to arbitration.
No Jury Trial:
If for any reason a claim or dispute proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, each party knowingly and irrevocably waives any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to these Card Terms.
Venue and Jurisdiction for Judicial Proceedings:
Except as otherwise required by applicable law or provided in these Card Terms, in the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your Dispute, you and Issuer agree that any judicial proceeding may only be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Puerto Rico. Both you and Issuer irrevocably consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there; provided that either party may bring any action to confirm an arbitral award in any court having jurisdiction.
Confidentiality:
The existence of and all information regarding any Dispute will be held in strict confidence by the parties and will not be disclosed by either party except as reasonably necessary in connection with the conduct of the arbitration or the confirmation or enforcement of any arbitral award. Any such permitted disclosure will, to the maximum extent reasonably practicable, be made subject to obligations of confidentiality at least as stringent as the provisions of this paragraph. If any disclosure of information regarding any Dispute is required under applicable law, the parties shall reasonably cooperate with one another to obtain protective orders or otherwise to preserve the confidentiality of such information.
Survival:
This agreement to arbitrate shall survive the termination or expiration of these Card Terms. With the exception of the provisions of this agreement to arbitrate that prohibit Collective Arbitration, if a court decides that any part of this agreement to arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of this agreement to arbitrate shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. In the event that a court finds the prohibition of Collective Arbitration to be invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this agreement to arbitrate shall be deemed void (but no provisions of these Card Terms unrelated to arbitration shall be void), and any remaining Dispute must be litigated in court pursuant to the preceding paragraph.
Indemnity:
You will indemnify and defend each of [Partner] and Issuer, and their affiliates, and their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors, and representatives (each an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all claims, litigation, investigations, proceedings, losses, damages, fines, penalties, liabilities, settlements, costs, fees, and expenses incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any person: (1) arising out of, in connection with, related to, or as a result of, a breach by you or by any Company Administrator or Company User of any of the representations, warranties, covenants, or agreements contained in these Card Terms, the User Terms, any terms applicable to any Third Party Provider or any other agreements with any Issuing Partner or that otherwise relate to the Services or the use of the [Partner] Card; (ii) for amounts owed by Company to third parties; (iii) for acts or omissions of Company Administrators, Company Users, or other Company employees or agents; (iv) for Company's use of the Services; or (v) for disputes over charges between Company and merchants. [Partner] and Issuer may defend any claim subject to indemnification hereunder, using counsel of its choice, and you will pay or promptly reimburse Rain for the reasonable fees of such counsel and all related costs and reasonable expenses
If you are a user from a jurisdiction that does not allow the certain indemnification obligations, you agree that the foregoing section titled “Indemnity” is intended to be as broad as permitted under the laws of such jurisdiction. If any portion of this section is held to be invalid under the laws of such jurisdiction, the invalidity of such portion will not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the applicable sections.
