Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision structures the dispute resolution framework by restricting the procedural mechanisms available for addressing claims. It eliminates the aggregation pathway that would otherwise allow multiple users to consolidate similar claims into a single proceeding.

The updated terms establish that when customers pay invoices you issue through Mercury Invoicing via ACH debit, Mercury will apply a hold period before crediting the funds to your account. The hold period is determined by Mercury in its sole discretion based on risk factors related to the transaction, payer, and payment history, and may range from 1 to 4 business days from the date the ACH debit is initiated. Mercury will display an estimated funds availability date for each incoming invoice payment in your Invoicing dashboard.
