What it is

The agreement authorizes HubSpot to collect outstanding fees from any payment method on file, reserves or funds held by HubSpot or its payment processors, and to set off amounts owed by the customer against refunds, credits, or other payments HubSpot may owe the customer.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision authorizes HubSpot to apply setoff against funds or credits it holds on behalf of the customer, including HubSpot Payments reserves, without requiring a separate demand or legal process; compliance teams at organizations using HubSpot Payments should evaluate how this interacts with their cash flow and payment processing operations.

Interpretive note: The interaction between this setoff provision and applicable state commercial law and payment network rules may limit enforceability in specific contexts, particularly where HubSpot Payments merchant reserves are involved.
