Credits
Available credits can only be used on products and services that utilize credits. Newswire Credits do not have a monetary value and cannot be redeemed for cash. Unless explicitly stated, single press release credits have a 60-day expiration date from the date of the original purchase transaction. Value Pack Annual Subscriptions (multiple press releases in a single order) press release credits will provide an expiration date based on the number of credits purchased up to 365-day expiration date from the date of the original subscription purchase.
Also, at the sole discretion of Newswire, we may modify product offerings and include services related to pre-purchased credits. All current credits will be given an equal or greater value with any switch related to specific distribution channels or media end points. We will do our best to provide you with advanced notice but cannot guarantee any specific time frame for the changes based on initial notice.
Contracts And Agreements
All fully executed contracts, agreements and Value Pack Subscriptions will automatically renew for an additional year upon reaching the end of the established Service Term date unless notice of cancellation is provided in writing 30 days prior to renewal date.
If at any time, the recurring payments of an established contract cannot successfully be completed via Newswire processor, we will immediately contact you to help resolve the issue. If the payment has not been resolved within 10 days of initial failure, then the entire amount of the contract will become due and payable immediately. Should this occur, Newswire will provide a final invoice for services that will accrue interest at 1.5% per month rate until resolved. Further, Newswire may pursue all opportunities available under Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) to collect the aggregate amount due to breach of contract.
Monthly and Annual Plans without contract: For any accounts that sign up for a monthly or annual plan without a specific contract will be governed by standard automatic renewal terms. If no cancellation is received prior to the next renewal period as established in the customer's account, Newswire will be under no obligation to provide a refund for that renewal period.
