If you wish to continue using such Services, you must pay all applicable Fees for such Services.
If you choose to sign up for any Services that incur Fees, you will be charged the then current Fees for such Services. Spoke's fees for the Services you use can be found on your current order form or accessed via the Administrator login to your Spoke Account Portal. Unless otherwise agreed, all Fees paid are non-refundable.

21. DISCOUNTS

From time to time in its sole discretion, Spoke may offer promotions or discounts. Any promotion or discount codes must be provided to Spoke upon purchase of the Services. You are not entitled to a subsequent credit for such promotions or discounts if you do not request such credit at the time of Account creation or change of Service. Promotions and/or discounts may not be used cumulatively or be used for Services retroactively. If a promotion and/or discount is offered on a confidential basis, you agree not to disclose the promotion and/or discount and to assume full responsibility for any harm, direct or indirect, caused to Spoke by the disclosure of the promotion and/or discount.

22. BILLING AND PAYMENT

Where you have subscribed to the Services through an Authorized Partner:
1. you must pay the Authorized Partner the Fees in accordance with the payment terms agreed between you and the Authorized Partner; and
2. clause 22.2 does not apply.
Where you have subscribed to the Services directly with Spoke:
1. You must pay the Fees by credit/debit card. When you subscribe to the Services, you must provide us with valid credit/debit card details (including proper billing information).
2. You authorize us to collect the Fees from your credit/debit card. Any authorization will remain valid until thirty (30) days after you terminate our authority to charge your credit/debit card.
3. You must notify us of any changes to your payment method, such as credit/debit card number or expiration date. If we are unable to collect the Fees from your credit/debit card, including where your credit/debit card has expired, is declined or fails for any reason, Spoke will use reasonable efforts to contact you and advise you of the failed billing attempts. You remain responsible for any uncollected accounts and Spoke reserves the right to disconnect your Services, suspend or terminate your Account and access to the Services without giving you notice.
4. You must dispute any charges for the Services in writing to Spoke within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice or charge by Spoke. If you fail to provide a written statement explaining in reasonable detail your reasons for disputing the charge within such time period, you hereby irrevocably waive any objection and further recourse with regard to such charges. Written statements disputing charges must be sent to support@getspoke.com.
Billing cycle end dates may change from time to time, but are usually based:
1. where you have subscribed to the Services under a contract that does not have a term, in monthly increments; or
2. where you have subscribed to the Services under a term contract, in annual increments,
in either case from the day you first subscribed to a Service that incurs Fees ("Billing Period").
You will be invoiced for (a) the applicable monthly fee for any Spoke Numbers you have obtained from us (if any) and, (b) the applicable monthly Recurring Fees you have added to the Services.
You will be invoiced in arrears for the applicable monthly Usage-Based Fees you have consumed via the Services (if any).
We may offer you unlimited use of the AI Services or an included number of conversations or minutes as part of your plan. You will pay for all use of AI Services not included on your plan.
If you add Recurring Fees during a Billing Period, we prorate the new charges to your Account such that the renewal date of the new Recurring Fees coincides with your existing Billing Cycle. If you remove Recurring Fees during a Billing Period, we will not prorate nor provide refunds for any unused items or time, however, you will continue to have access to the relevant Services until the next Billing Period, when such Fees/Services are removed.
If you are not using BYO Twilio, the terms set out in Appendix 1 apply.
We may, by giving you at least 90 days' notice, increase the Recurring Fees with effect from the start of a Year (but not the first Year) by an amount that does not exceed the greater of 10% or the percentage increase in the applicable Consumer Price Index set out in clause 28 (or similar or equivalent index if that index ceases to be published) for the period from:
1. in the case of the first increase in Recurring Fees, the Effective Date; or
2. in the case of any subsequent increase in Recurring Fees, the date of the last notice of such increase.
The Usage-Based Fees are subject to change from time to time. If you are not using BYO Twilio, details of charges for call minutes, messages, and similar communication services are set out at Appendix 1. Other Usage-Based Fees are available on request.
Where you have subscribed to the Services through an Authorized Partner, you irrevocably agree that the Authorized Partner may at any time assign its right to receive payments in connection with the Services from you to us.

APPENDIX 1 – SPOKE CLOUD COMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES

Application: This Appendix 1 applies if you use communication infrastructure provided by Spoke in connection with the Platform Services
Spoke may offer you free inbound and/or outbound calling on certain call routes as part of your plan. You will pay for all other calls not included on a plan made to any number. Calls are charged per minute, rounded up to the nearest full minute, and the cost per minute may differ based on number type (e.g. geographic, toll-free, shared-service, etc.) and by location from where you are calling or being called from. Your outbound calls are charged monthly and you can download invoices for these calls here: account.spokephone.com/subscription/invoice-history
Spoke may offer you free inbound and outbound SMS, WhatsApp or other messaging as part of your plan. You will pay for all other messages received or sent beyond those countries and or volume offered in your plan.
In some countries, calls to mobile numbers, free-phone numbers, and shared-services numbers (e.g. 13/1300 numbers in Australia) can be subject to significant carrier and/or government inbound termination charges. If you provision, or have requested such numbers to be provisioned, on your Account, you are responsible for all such costs incurred, including any fraud that may occur on your Account.
Some countries are high-risk for toll fraud given the nature of their call charges and regulatory infrastructure. Spoke has blocked several known high-risk call routes on all accounts, including your account ("Known high-risk routes"). There may be other high-risk call routes unknown to and not blocked by Spoke ("New high-risk routes"). Spoke will do its best to quickly identify and block New high-risk routes, but you assume the risk of calls Users make to New-high risk routes until identified and blocked. If you request that Spoke unblock calls to Known high-risk routes and New high-risk routes, you assume all liability for all calls to/from those routes, including toll-fraud, that may occur on your account.
You are responsible for paying all charges on your Account, including toll-free, local, long distance, international call minutes, additional feature charges, automated operators or operator assisted charges, and directory assistance charges, and for all taxes, surcharges, and fees imposed on you or us as a result of your use of the Service.
