This Service Agreement (the “Agreement”) sets forth terms under which Welma Inc. doing business as PressFixer (“Company”) shall provide services to the Client (identified by First and Last Name and or Company Name on the payment processor used to facilitate the financial transaction.)

The agreement becomes effective on the date that the first payment for services is received by PressFixer.

1. Scope of Services

The Company is to provide the Client with the following services (the "Services"):

• Website Design and Development
• Technical Implementation
• WordPress Maintenance and Website updates including but not limited to updates to the theme, plugins, core files, content and code.
• Website Hosting
• Email Marketing

Any feedback from the Client that is necessary for the Company to deliver the Services must be provided within 5 business days of our request, failing which the Company shall be entitled to treat the proposal as approved and proceed to the next phase of the project if applicable.

For Clients who are on a monthly plan, all corrections, changes and other feedback must be received at least 7 business days before the end of the month for which the Services are being provided to allow the Company to complete the Services by the end of the month. In the event that delayed feedback requires the Company to provide the Services outside of the monthly plan, the Client acknowledges it will be billed at the hourly rate of $75.

Clients who retain the Company for project-based services will receive 30 days of post-launch support as part of the Services, such support to include small edits, improvements to functionality and corrections to bugs. Amendments which include work outside of the original project scope and requests for support after the 30-day period following the launch will be billed at the hourly rate of $75.

2. Compensation; Payment

Client shall provide compensation to the Company at a rate agreed upon via an estimate or online shopping cart. Services include recurring monthly or annual payments as stated on the PressFixer website, invoice or estimate provided to the client. By signing up for a service, you agree to pay PressFixer the applicable setup fees and recurring fees. Applicable fees will be invoiced starting from the day your services are established and in advance of using such services. Payments which cannot be processed are subject to a NSF fee of $45 in addition to the missed payment. PressFixer reserves the right to change the payment terms and fees upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to you. Services can be cancelled by you at any time by clicking the link on the Client Portal page, or submitting written notice to PressFixer. Cancellation of service means that you will not be rebilled after the cancellation date. Service will continue until the end of the paid service period. All fees are payable in United States currency unless otherwise indicated and are subject to change upon 30 days’ notice.

Your satisfaction is important to us. Yet, because of the extensive time, effort, preparation, and care that goes into providing Services, we have a no refund policy. Unless otherwise provided by law, you acknowledge that we do not offer refunds for any portion of your payment for any of our Programs, Products and Services and Program Materials, and no refunds will be provided to you at any time. By using and/or purchasing any of our Programs, Products and Services and Program Materials, you understand and agree that all sales are final upon signing the contract, and that our fee is fully payable at that time, and no refunds will be provided.

All clients enrolled in a monthly service or who need support within 30 days of a single purchase receive support via our Live Chat, Client Portal or Support email. This means the ability to make requests for technical support assistance at any time (with reasonable efforts by PressFixer to respond within 1-2 business days) concerning the use of PressFixer Services. All support will be provided in accordance with PressFixer standard services practices, procedures and policies. For clients not enrolled in a monthly service, support will be limited to corrections of the services provided and will not include any additional tasks.

3. Term; Termination

This Agreement shall commence on the date the first payment has been received by the company and remain in effect until the Services are completed. This Agreement may be extended by mutual written consent of both parties. If either party seeks to terminate this Agreement, the terminating party must provide 7 days’ notice to the other party.

The Company reserves the right to immediately terminate this Agreement at any time if a client breaches any of the provisions of this Agreement, including a failure to pay as agreed. The Company may also choose to suspend service until the Client corrects the breach.
