The Services: Fincast’s technology and sites enable consumers to upload existing mortgage quotes (Loan Estimates) and shop them to find better deals across Fincast’s network of approved Lenders (the “Network”).  Consumers may also provide personal information about their borrowing qualifications, preferences, and property information.  Fincast analyzes and organizes uploaded documents and information provided by consumers to create anonymized packages of information for presentation to the Network (the “Offers”).  

Lenders may join the Network by registering for a Fincast account with a verified business email and password and by providing complete and accurate Lender Information to Fincast.  At Fincast’s sole discretion, the Lender may be approved and accepted into Fincast’s Network.  Lender Information may be maintained and updated in Fincast’s self-service interface via a private webpage (the “App”).  

Once in the Network, Lenders may also access and review Offers and submit competitive pricing quotes (“Bids” or “Bidding”) to beat Offers in the App (the “Services”).  Bids are presented to consumers on a custom webpage (“Dashboard”), and they may select Your Bid by clicking the button “Get This Offer” and then clicking the button “Connect Me” on a pop-up consent form.  The consumer’s request and consent authorize Fincast to reveal the consumer’s contact details and connect the consumer with You to receive Your Bid (“Connections”).  Fincast will create an email introduction for You and the consumer who chose Your Bid and present Lender Information to the consumer on their Dashboard for the Connection.  

Lender agrees to promptly contact consumers when a Connection has been made through the Services. Any loan or other business conducted is between Lender and the consumer, and Lender is fully responsible for complying with all laws, rules, and regulations in connection with such business, including all obligations to provide consumers with relevant disclosures or any brochures.

Pricing and Payments: When a Connection occurs after a consumer clicks “Get This Offer” and “Connect Me,” the Lender in the Connection that made the Bid will be charged.  Fincast will automatically process a payment according to the Payment Plan detailed in the Fincast App.  Fincast will use the credit card information provided by the Lender in the integrated Stripe Billing Portal for payments.  Lender authorizes Finast to charge any of the credit cards provided to Fincast or in Fincast’s integrated Stripe Billing Portal and warrants that he/she is an authorized and lawful user of such credit card(s). Fincast uses Stripe to store your credit card information and billing details and to process payments.  More information about Stripe’s Services can be found here: Stripe’s Services Agreement. 

Lender agrees to pay in U.S. Dollars, using a valid credit card, all applicable fees and charges relating to Fincast’s Services and Connections according to the Payment Plan and authorizes Fincast to charge Lender’s credit card for such fees and charges plus any applicable taxes. All payments are non-refundable. Lender understands and agrees that under no circumstances may Lender pause or suspend Lender’s payment obligations for any reason while using Fincast’s Services but may discontinue using Fincast’s Services at any time.  

Lender is responsible for paying (i) all taxes and government charges, and (ii) reasonable expenses and attorneys’ fees Fincast incurs collecting unpaid amounts. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Lender waives all claims relating to charges based upon suspected click fraud (this waiver does not affect Lender’s credit card issuer rights). Lender acknowledges and agrees that any credit card and related billing payment information that the Lender provides to Fincast may be shared by Fincast with Fincast service providers, such as payment processors.  

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prices, charges, and fees are subject to change at any time at Fincast’s sole discretion or in accordance with changes made by service providers or governments. Fincast will notify Lender by email of any pricing changes made by Fincast prior to the change.  Upon such notification, Lender will be bound by any such pricing changes, regardless of Lender’s failure to review the then-current Payment Plan or to read or receive any such email for any reason.   

Lender is responsible for updating Lender’s credit card and other payment information promptly to keep the account current, complete and accurate. This includes, but is not limited to, any changes to Lender’s credit card number, billing address and card expiration date.  Lender can make changes and update credit card details in the Stripe Billing Portal by clicking “Manage Billing” in the Billing Information section of the Fincast App.

In the event that Fincast cannot charge Lender’s credit card or other payment method or a charge has been declined or failed, Fincast reserves the right to suspend or terminate Lender’s access to the Services and notify Lender of the failed payment.  Lender authorizes Fincast to re-try one or more times any credit card associated with Lender’s account and Lender will have up to (3) business days after notification to provide Fincast with payment to reactivate Services.  Failure to reconcile failed payments may result in permanent termination of Lender’s account and risks account being sent to collections.

Fincast may assign these Terms of Use, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice to the Lender. The Lender may not assign these Terms of Use, or assign, transfer or sublicense the Lender's rights, if any, in the Services. Fincast shall not be liable for any nonperformance, delay, error, data loss or other loss caused by an event or conditions that are beyond the reasonable control of Fincast. Fincast's failure to act with respect to a breach by the Lender or others does not waive its right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. Except as expressly stated herein, these Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between the Lender and Fincast with respect to the Services and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications of any kind between the Lender and Fincast with respect to the Services. Fincast and Lender are independent contractors, not legal partners or agents. Any notices to Fincast must be sent to Fincast, Inc., 66 West Flagler Street, 9th Floor, Miami, FL 33130, via registered mail with return receipt or air mail or overnight courier, and are deemed given upon receipt. Notice to Lender may be affected by sending an email to the email address provided by Lender and is deemed received when sent (for email).


Arbitration: Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its then existing Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered into court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of arbitration shall be Miami-Dade County, Florida or any other place agreed upon at the time by Fincast and Lender (under this Section Arbitration, together, the “Parties” and each a “Party”). The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Hearings will take place pursuant to the standard procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules that contemplate in person hearings. No demand for arbitrations may be made after the date when the institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim or dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. A Party may apply to the arbitrator seeking injunctive relief until an arbitration award is rendered or the dispute is otherwise resolved. A Party also may, without waiving any other remedy, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the arbitrator’s appointment or decision on the merits of the dispute. The arbitrators will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing Party’s actual damages, except as may be required by statute. The prevailing Party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. The award of the arbitrators shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion. Except as may be required by law and for disclosure in confidence to the Parties’ respective attorneys, tax advisors and other similar representatives, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties.
