Payment Processing services. Marktplaats B.V. (“Customer”) has contracted PromisePay Pty. Ltd. an Australian Company registered in the State of Victoria trading as Assembly Payments Pty. Ltd. (together with its affiliates, subsidiaries and divisions, collectively “Assembly” or “We” or “Us”) as a point of sale payment processor to independently facilitate the payment process for Goods, Assets or Services Purchased and Sold via Customer’s online platform by registered users.
For the avoidance of doubt, Customer is not a party to any agreement for the provision and/or use of the Payment Processing services by you. This Agreement is entered into directly between either the Subscriber and Assembly, Platform Buyer and Assembly, or the Platform Seller and Assembly.
Furthermore the Platform Seller, and not Customer, will be the Merchant of Record relating to Platform Transactions between Platform Sellers and Platform Buyers.
To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, in no event shall Customer be liable to any Subscriber, Platform Buyer, or Platform Seller for any actions, claims, demands, losses, liabilities, damages, recoveries, settlements and/or costs (including attorney, accountant, and expert witness fees and costs), known or unknown, contingent or otherwise (collectively, “Losses”), of any kind whatsoever, arising out or relating to their respective use of, or inability to use, the Payment Processing services, regardless of the legal theory under which such Losses are sought. IN THE EVENT THE FOREGOING IS NOT ENFORCEABLE FOR ANY REASON, THEN CUSTOMER’S MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY CLAIM (OR SERIES OF RELATED CLAIMS), BY ANY SUBSCRIBER, PLATFORM BUYER OR PLATFORM SELLER ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE PAYMENT PROCESSING SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AGGREGATE PURCHASE PRICE PAID OR PAYABLE FOR THE GOODS, ASSETS OR SERVICES WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE TRANSACTION(S) GIVING RISE TO THE PAYMENT CLAIM.
A. Platform Sellers
In order to provide Payment Processing services to the Platform Seller, Assembly is required to validate Platform Seller’s identity with Third Party Service Providers.

Platform Seller consents to Assembly carrying out such a validation and will, at minimum, supply the following information to Assembly:
If You are operating a registered business (Pty Ltd, Pty Lte, Partnership, Trust, Close Corporation, Sole Trader, LLC, S Corp, C Corp, LLP, LP, etc.), You will also need to provide Your:
By accepting this Agreement, Platform Seller authorizes Assembly to share, retrieve and verify information about Platform Seller through properly accredited Third Party Service Providers, but only to the extent required to provide Payment Processing services to Platform Seller. Platform Seller acknowledges that this may include history of past addresses and other personal data (e.g. IP addresses). Platform Seller acknowledges that Assembly and its Third Party Service Provider(s) are situated outside of South Africa, and consent to the transfer of Platform Seller’s personal information to them for the purposes of providing the Payment Processing services. Assembly may require that Platform Seller’s information be updated from time to time.

Assembly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to complete any Transaction that Assembly has commercially reasonable reason to believe was not unauthorized by the Subscriber or the Platform Buyer, as the case may be, or made by someone other than the Subscriber or Platform Buyer, as the case may be, may violate Applicable Law, or if Assembly has reasonable cause not to honour it.
Platform Seller agrees to use its reasonable commercial efforts to assist Assembly with any fraud or chargeback issue. Subscriber, Platform Seller and Platform Buyer also understand and agree that Assembly may delay or reject Transactions that Assembly deems potentially fraudulent. Platform Seller or Subscriber, as the case may be, also agrees to allow Assembly to share information about a Chargeback with the Platform Buyer (in the case of a Platform Transaction), or Customer (in the case of a Subscription Transaction), or the financial institution where Platform Seller’s or Subscriber’s Account is held, to investigate or otherwise resolve a chargeback. Assembly will make any such disclosure subject to and in accordance with Applicable Law.
To the extent allowed by Applicable Law, but only for the purposes of Transaction Funds Reversals and Fraud or Excessive Chargebacks as provided for in Sections 10 and 11 above, Subscriber/Platform Seller/Platform Buyer grants to Assembly a right of set-off against any Account created for Subscriber/Platform Seller/Platform Buyer through Subscriber’s/Platform Seller’s/Platform Buyer’s use of the Payment Processing services, including any reserve or any pending pay-outs that Assembly has received for processing pursuant to this Agreement. Subscriber/Platform Seller/Platform Buyer agrees to execute and deliver any documents necessary to perfect and enforce this interest. Additionally, without prior notice, but only for the purposes of Transaction Funds Reversals and Fraud or Excessive Chargebacks as provided for in Sections 10 and 11 above, Subscriber/Platform Seller/Platform Buyer agrees that Assembly may defer pay-out/restrict access to funds related to a disputed Transaction, or if pay-out has already occurred, directly debit Subscriber’s/Platform Seller’s/Platform Buyer’s Account for the amount charged back.
Assembly reserves the right to immediately terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason, and notifying the Customer and the Platform Seller/ Platform Buyer/ Subscriber, as the case may be
Platform Seller/ Platform Buyer/ Subscriber may terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason by halting the use of the Payment Processing services and notifying the Customer and Assembly. Pursuant to such notification, any pending Purchases or Sales will be cancelled. In the case of:
Upon termination, Your account will be flagged as dormant and You will no longer have the ability to use Assembly. Should this occur, You agree to discontinue use of Assembly and any Assembly trademarks. To the extent permitted under Applicable Law, and in instances other than a breach by Assembly of this Agreement, Assembly will not be liable for any damages or responsible for any compensation in connection with Your termination of the Payment Processing services.
Section 10 (Chargebacks and Disputes), Section 11 (Fraud and Excessive Chargebacks), Section 12 (Set Off/Security Interest), Section 15 (Platform Buyer/Platform Seller/Subscriber/Customer Dispute Resolution), Section 16 (Disputes Involving Assembly), Section 17 (Liability), and Section 18 (Disclaimer) of this Agreement as well as any other obligations and any terms which by their nature would reasonably continue beyond the expiration or termination of this Agreement, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.
The following provisions apply to any payment dispute or other claim, controversy or dispute brought by a Platform Seller, Platform Buyer, or a Subscriber, regarding a Transaction (collectively, a “Payment Claim”):
Once a Payment Claim becomes subject to this Section 15.2, Assembly will investigate the claim, act as a neutral intermediary/mediator between the parties and make a final recommended decision with respect to such Payment Claim. The parties to the dispute agree to fully cooperate with Assembly in its endeavour to resolve any Payment Claims. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties to the dispute shall promptly, and in any event within two (2) days of receipt of the same, respond to all inquiries by Assembly regarding a Payment Claim and deliver to Assembly any information or documents requested by Assembly regarding any Payment Claim or underlying Transaction, including without limitation:
If all the parties to the dispute agree to Assembly’s recommended decision in writing, they shall notify Assembly accordingly within 15 (fifteen) days of the date on which Assembly made its recommendation. Assembly shall within 15 (fifteen) days of being notified by the parties of their agreement, disburse any monies previously withheld by Assembly in connection with such Payment Claim in accordance with its recommended decision.
If the parties do not agree with Assembly’s recommended decision, any party may upon written notification to Assembly and the other party or parties to the Payment Claim, initiate arbitration proceedings as set forth in Section 15.12, within fifteen (15) days of the date on which Assembly gives its recommended decision.
If no party initiates arbitration, Assembly shall disburse any monies previously withheld by Assembly in connection with such Payment Claim in accordance with the recommended decision within 15 (fifteen) days of the arbitration initiation deadline.
So there may be no doubt, the subject matter for determination in any decision covered by this Section 15 shall be limited to the Goods, Assets or Services which are the subject of the Transaction(s) giving rise to the Payment Claim, and the Purchase Price paid or payable thereof.
