Artists
The Site is a platform that connects artists (“Artists” or “you”) providing hair, makeup, nails, wax, massage and other health and beauty services (collectively, “Beauty Services”) with clients seeking such services (“Clients”). The Artists and Clients are both users of the Site and are hereinafter referred to collectively as “Users.”
The Site solely provides a platform for Artists and Clients to connect and serves only as a medium to facilitate the provision of Beauty Services. The platform includes a variety of transaction processing services, including, but not limited to, geolocation, scheduling, payment facilitation, reviews and other services necessary to provide a forum for Artists and Clients to communicate their preferences, respectfully, when providing and receiving services.
We are not a party to the Beauty Services. We do not provide or contract for Beauty Services, and Artists and Clients contract independently for the provision of Beauty Services. Each Client is solely responsible for selecting the Artist, the Beauty Services to be provided and the location at which Beauty Services will be performed, whether on the premises of an Artist or at a site designated by the Client. Any decision by a Client to receive Beauty Services or by an Artist to provide Beauty Services is a decision made in such person’s sole discretion. In performing services, Artists must present themselves as not affiliated with LISA.

You understand that we have no obligation to routinely screen our Users,
inquire into the background of our Users, or attempt to verify information provided by any User. We do not verify or confirm that any User is who they claim to be or is accurately representing

You authorize us to use our standard cancellation and missed appointment policies and fees. Over time, we may update our pricing features and / or provide you greater discretion in implementing individualized features, such as discretionary cancelled and missed appointments policies and fees; when we do so, you agree to promptly update your profile as necessary to comply with the common processing features of the Site.
While we take what we believe to be reasonable efforts to ensure secure transmission of your information to third parties who assess and process payments, we are not responsible for any fees or charges assessed by third parties or any errors in the processing of payments by third parties, including any errors that result from third party negligence, improper transmission of payment information, a Client’s mistaken submission of payment information, or submission of erroneous payment information.

We may from time to time advertise promotions related to transactions performed on the Site. Artists may participate in the promotions. All Artist promotions shall be optional with the exception being that all first time users of the platform shall receive a 20% discount for any Beauty Service provided. For example, if you normally charge $100.00 for a haircut service, and a first time Client of the LISA platform schedules an appointment with you, you agree that your $100.00 fee for the haircut will be discounted to $80.00 for that Client.
Payment Facilitation
In addition to our other transaction processing services, we facilitate receipt by Artists of payments from Clients through the use of our third party payment processor, Stripe. Each Artist is provided a Stripe Connect account to facilitate disbursements, withholdings, and all payment processing through the Site. Your use of the Site as an Artist represents your express consent to the terms and conditions of the <link>Stripe Connected Account Agreement</link> and updates or modifications that our third party payment processor may make at its sole discretion.
We are not a bank, money transmitter, or Money Services Business (“MSB”), and we do not offer banking or MSB services as defined by the United States Department of Treasury. We never have any control or ownership over your money. In connection with the Beauty Services, we do not actually or constructively receive, take possession of or hold any money or monetary value for transmission, and do not advertise, solicit or hold ourselves out as receiving money for transmission.
Transaction Processing
Payment transactions have various states. They can be reversed or cancelled at any time due to fraud or chargebacks. We may impose transaction limits at any time. Transactions are indicated as Pending, Completed, Failed or Cancelled.
“Pending” indicates that a transaction is currently undergoing review by our third party payment processor and may not be completed or settled, at the third party payment processor’s sole discretion. “Pending” may also indicate that the transaction is awaiting account confirmation or settlement from a third party.
“Completed” indicates that a transaction has cleared and the funds are available in the Merchant’s Account. If we determine that the transaction is related to a restricted or prohibited business or activity or that the transaction is the result of fraudulent activity, we may reverse or refund the transaction at any time.
“Cancelled” indicates that a transaction has been stopped or reversed. This could be due to inaccurate or incomplete information about your Account, our inability to validate the legitimacy of a payment, Purchaser, or Merchant, or other proprietary reason. You may contact our support
tos-artist-v4 page 5 of 19
for more information. Although payments are cancelled, the removal of an authorization on a Client credit card or a return of funds to a Client bank account may not be immediate, and we cannot guarantee availability within a specific timeframe. “Failed” indicates that a transaction could not be processed due to inaccurate Account information, insufficient funds, or other transaction related reason.
Upon the release of transaction information by us, a Client will be debited or charged by our third party payment processor. The Artist agrees that the Client’s obligation to the Artist is treated as paid at the time of (i) the release of this transaction information when a transaction enters the “Completed” state; and (ii) the related initiation of processing by our third party payment processor. After the initiation of processing by our third party payment processor, the Artist agrees not to attempt to collect or otherwise seek payment from the Client because the Artist agrees Client’s obligation to the Artist has been conclusively discharged. The Artist agrees that the Client is a third party beneficiary of the preceding two sentences. Transactions may stay in a “Pending” state before “Completed” if we are reviewing a transaction for risk purposes. Transactions in this state should not be treated as paid until they are “Completed”.
Transactions may be disputed at any time up to 90 days from the date of transaction, regardless of state, by the Purchaser. Disputes resolved in favor of the Client may result in reversal of the disputed transaction, regardless of state.
We reserve the right to limit or restrict transaction size or volume at any time. If you would like to increase your limits, please contact Customer Support. Upon receiving this request, we will conduct a review of your Account, and decide whether to lift or remove these limits. We will consider a variety of factors in making this decision and will make this determination at its sole discretion.
Cancellation and No-Show Policies
On-Demand Cancellations
No cancellation charge for any cancellations made within 3 minutes of the Artist accepting the appointment. If an appointment is cancelled by the Client 3 minutes after the Artist accepts the appointment, a charge of 50% of the requested service fee will be applied to the Client’s account.
Scheduled Appointments (Same Day) Cancellations
No cancellation charge for any cancellations made within 30 minutes of the Artist accepting the appointment. If an appointment is cancelled by the Client’s 30 minutes after the Artist accepts the appointment, a charge of 50% of the requested service fee will be applied to the Client’s account.

Payment Terms
Authorization
You authorize us through our third party payment processor to hold, receive, and disburse funds on your behalf. Your authorization permits us to generate a paper draft or an electronic funds transfer to process each payment transaction that you authorize by using the Site to facilitate your transaction in any manner, and your authorization includes the right to initiate adjustments for any transactions credited or debited in error. Your authorizations will remain in full force and effect until your Account is closed or terminated.
Unauthorized or Illegal Use
We may decide not to authorize or settle any transaction that you submit to us if we believe that the transaction is in violation of this Agreement or any other policy, or that it exposes Artists, other Users, our processors or LISA to harm. Harm includes fraud and other criminal acts. If we reasonably suspect that your Account has been used for an unauthorized, illegal, or criminal purpose, you give us express authorization to share information about you, your Account, and any of your transactions with law enforcement.
Our Fees
When providing Beauty Services to Clients, our third party payment processor will transmit a portion of the fees you charge to the Client to us as our processing fee (“Platform Fees”). You agree to pay such Platform Fees to us.
Our Platform Fees may be delineated in various forms: You will be charged a standard
tos-artist-v4 page 7 of 19
processing fee as we have agreed when you form your account. From time to time, we may provide additional optional services that require additional processing fees and / or we may charge certain administrative fees (over and above any fees charged by our third party partners) related to a variety of administrative functions, including, but not limited to, chargebacks, refunds, returns, credit checks, wrong account information, and other such items. You agree to pay such additional optional processing and administrative fees to us as listed on our Site.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, we reserve the right to change such Platform Fees at any time. You must agree to the change in such Platform Fees to continue to provide Beauty Services. Platform Fees and other administrative fees are found in a separate schedule attached to this Terms or Service and may be also included in financial reports or other documents accessible to you.
Access to Account Funds
Subject to the payout schedule identified below, our third party payment processor will deposit amounts received by us for transactions you submit through the Site (less any applicable Platform Fees) to your verified bank account. In the event the bank account you link to your Account is incorrect and we are not able to debit or credit the bank account, the bank account will be delinked from your Account. Funds for any given transaction will not be deposited until the transaction is deemed complete. Transactions will be deemed complete when we have received or sent the funds and when the designated financial institutions or we have accepted the transaction or funds.
Standard Schedule of Payouts and Reserve
Once we validate your U.S. bank account, we may direct our third party payment processor to establish a reserve (“Reserve”) for the account in an amount that we determine is necessary to insure that you have sufficient funds for your obligations under the Terms. This decisions to direct our payment processor to establish the Reserve and the amount of the Reserve are made by us alone.
Funds in excess of your required Reserve for your account will be paid to your bank account at the end of every two day (2 day) cycle. In the future, we may provide you an opportunity for a greater frequency of payouts (e.g., weekly, daily) subject to any additional terms related to that optional service. On any daily service, payouts to your bank account for payments received before 4pm Central Time will usually fund the next business day.
Availability of Funds
Should we need to conduct an investigation or resolve any pending dispute related to your Account, including refunds, we may defer payout or restrict access to your funds for the entire time it takes for us to do so. We also may defer payout or restrict access to your funds as necessary to comply with applicable law or court order, or if otherwise requested by law
tos-artist-v4 page 8 of 19
enforcement or governmental entity.
Taxes
You are responsible for determining any and all taxes assessed, incurred, or required to be collected, paid, or withheld for any reason in connection your use of the Site (“Taxes”). You also are solely responsible for collecting, withholding, reporting, and remitting correct Taxes to the appropriate tax authority. We are not obligated to, nor will we determine whether Taxes apply, or calculate, collect, report, or remit any Taxes to any tax authority arising from any transaction. We specifically disclaim any liability for Taxes. If in a given calendar year you receive (i) more than $20,000 in gross amount of payments and (ii) more than 200 payments, report will be sent annually to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), as required by law, including your name, address, Tax Identification Number (such as a Social Security Number (SSN), or Employer Identification Number (EIN)), the total dollar amount of the payments you receive in a calendar year, and the total dollar amount of the payments you receive for each month in a calendar year.
Client Care; Reviews
Artists are solely responsible for all Client service issues relating to such Artist’s goods or services, including pricing, order fulfillment, order cancellation by you or a Client, returns, refunds and adjustments, rebates, functionality and warranty, technical support, and feedback concerning experiences with your personnel, policies or processes. You agree that Clients receiving your Beauty Services may provide reviews through the Site to us. While we retain the right to terminate your account for any reason, we do not have a policy of terminating any account simply because you have received poor reviews.
Non-solicitation
Artist will make no attempt, either written or verbal, to directly solicit LISA Client(s) for one year from the date of the last service provided to the Client. If a LISA Client(s) contacts Artist as a result of a LISA relationship, Artist will refer them back to LISA immediately if a relationship to LISA is evident. If the same Client wishes to pay Artist directly for service or hire the Artist, as a full-time employee, part-time employee, or as an independent contractor, to provide similar services as the Artist provided while working with LISA, Artist agrees to remit a referral fee of 50% on all gross sales generated or gross wages earned by providing beauty and wellness services to the Client for one year starting the first day of service the Client wishes to pay Artist directly.
LISA has expended significant money and energy in acquiring favorable business relationships with its Client(s). Accordingly, Artist recognizes and acknowledges that, in the event of a breach by them of the above, real and substantial damages will be sustained, but an exact amount of such damages will be difficult to prove. Artist, therefore, agrees to evaluate and remedy said breach within 7 days of notification by LISA that a breach has occurred. If an appropriate resolution has not occurred within 7 days, the Artist shall pay a sum of up to $10,000 to LISA.
Refunds and Returns
By accepting payment card transactions through the Site, you agree to process returns of, and provide refunds and adjustments for, your Beauty Services in accordance with this Agreement and the terms and conditions of our third party payment processor. You can process a refund through your Account up to two (2) days from the day you accepted the payment. If your available balance is insufficient to cover the refund, we will request your authorization to withdraw up to the requested refund amount from your bank account. We will then direct our third party processor to withdraw the amount you were paid (the sale amount minus the Processing Fee) from your bank account, and credit it back into your Client’s credit card. Our Platform Fees are nonrefundable in the event of a Refund
Liability for Chargebacks and Fraudulent Actions
The amount of a transaction may be reversed or charged back to your Account (a “Chargeback”) if the transaction (a) is disputed, (b) is reversed for any reason by the Network, our processor, or a Client or our financial institution, (c) was not authorized or we have any reason to believe that the transaction was not authorized, (d) is allegedly unlawful, suspicious, or in violation of the
tos-artist-v4 page 9 of 19
terms of this Agreement. We are not liable for any losses relating to Chargebacks, fraudulent charges, or other actions by any User that are deceptive, fraudulent or otherwise invalid (“Fraudulent Actions”). By using the Site, you hereby release us from any liability arising from Fraudulent Actions.
Our Collection Rights for Chargebacks
For any transaction that results in a Chargeback, we will direct our third party payment processor to withhold the Chargeback amount in a Reserve, even if the amount would temporarily cause the current Reserve limit to increase, assuring us that the total minimum Reserve will be maintained after the payments for the Chargeback amount and other related fees. We may direct our third party processor to debit the amount of any Chargeback and any associated Platform Fees, fines, or penalties assessed by our third party payment processor from your Account (including without limitation any Reserve), any proceeds due to you, your bank account, or other payment instrument registered with us. If you have pending Chargebacks, we may delay payouts from your Account. Further, if we reasonably believe that a Chargeback is likely with respect to any transaction, we may direct our third party processor to withhold the amount of the potential Chargeback from payments otherwise due to you under this Agreement until such time that: (a) a Chargeback is assessed due to a Client’s complaint, in which case we will retain the funds; (b) the period of time under applicable law or regulation by which the Client may dispute that transaction has expired; or (c) we determine that a Chargeback on the transaction will not occur. If we are unable to recover funds related to a Chargeback for which you are liable, you will pay us the full amount of the Chargeback immediately upon demand. You agree to pay all fees, costs and expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses, incurred by or on behalf of us in connection with the collection of all deficit balances unpaid by you. Our Platform Fees are nonrefundable in the event of a Chargeback.
Excessive Chargebacks
If we determine that you are incurring an excessive amount of Chargebacks, we may establish controls or conditions governing your Account, including without limitation, by (a) establishing new processing fees, (b) creating a Reserve in an amount reasonably determined by us to cover anticipated Chargebacks and related fees, (c) delaying payouts, and (d) terminating or suspending your account.
Contesting Chargebacks
You agree to assist us when requested, at your expense, to investigate any of your transactions processed through the Beauty Services. To that end, you permit us to share information about a Chargeback with the Client, the Client’s financial institution, and your financial institution in order to investigate and/or mediate a Chargeback. We will request necessary information from you to contest the Chargeback. If the Chargeback is contested successfully, we will release the
tos-artist-v4 page 10 of 19
reserved funds to your Account. If a Chargeback dispute is not resolved in your favor or you choose not to contest the Chargeback, we may recover the Chargeback amount and any associated fees as described in this Agreement. You acknowledge that your failure to assist us in a timely manner when investigating a transaction, including providing necessary documentation within five (5) days of our request, may result in an irreversible Chargeback. We reserve the right, upon notice to you, to charge a fee for mediating and/or investigating Chargeback disputes.
LISA Setoff Rights
You grant us a security interest in, as well as a right of set off against, and hereby assign, convey, deliver, pledge and transfer to us, as security for repayment of any obligations due under this Agreement, all of your right, title, and interest in and to all of your accounts with us. However, this grant will not apply to any accounts for which the grant of a security interest would be prohibited by law. You authorize us, without prior notice to you and irrespective of (i) whether we have made demand under this Agreement or any other related agreements; and (ii) whether the obligation is contingent, matured or unmatured, to the extent permitted by law, to collect, charge, and/or set off all sums owing on the indebtedness against any and all such accounts and other obligations, and our option, to administratively freeze or direct any third party bank holding the account to freeze all such accounts to allow us to protect our security interest, collection, charge and set off rights as provided for in this section. To the extent permitted by law, we may set off against the balances for any obligation you owe us under this Agreement, including without limitation any Chargebacks. All Fees are charged at the time we process a transaction and are deducted first from the transferred or collected funds and thereafter from the balance in your Account. If you owe us an amount that exceeds your balance, we may charge or debit a payment instrument registered in your Account or any connected Account (as well as set off against any balance in any connected Account). Your failure to fully pay amounts that you owe us on demand will be a breach of this Agreement. You will be liable for our costs associated with collection in addition to the amount owed, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and expenses, collection agency fees, and any applicable interest.
Processing Errors
We will attempt to rectify processing errors that we discover. If the error resulted in your receipt of less than the amount to which you were entitled, we will credit your Account for the difference. If the error results in your receipt of more than the amount to which you were entitled, we will debit the extra funds from your Account. We will only correct transactions that you process incorrectly if and when you notify us of such an error. Your failure to notify us of a processing error within five (5) business days of when it first appears on your electronic transaction history will be deemed a waiver of any right to amounts owed to you.
tos-artist-v4 page 11 of 19
Dormant Accounts
If there is no activity in your Account within a six (6) month period, we may deem your account as Dormant. If you have a credit in your account such as your reserve, we may contact you by email or any other means per your account registration. We will give you the option of keeping your account open or terminating your account and withdrawing any remaining funds. If you do not respond to our notice within the timeframe specified in the notice, we may close your Account and our third party payment processor will escheat your funds in accordance with applicable law.

Mandatory Promotion Program
LISA only requires Artists to participate in one mandatory joint promotion program:
1) When a Client uses the LISA platform for the first time, an Artist automatically agrees to provide a 20% discount to the Artist’s stated services fees for all services that the Client receives in that initial appointment. For example, if you normally charge $100.00 for a haircut, and a first time Client of the LISA platform schedules an appointment with you, you agree that your $100.00 fee for the haircut will be discounted to $80.00 for that Client on his or her appointment.
2) LISA in turn will provide the Client a free 1year subscription to Lifeline Response (appx $60 retail value), the same free security monitoring app that you receive when you register as an Artist.
In the future, LISA will offer additional Artist promotion programs, which the Artist may join at his or her option. We also reserve the sole right to modify the mandatory promotion program in the future after providing advance notice.
