Legal-review draft. These Terms are prepared for final review by qualified U.S. counsel before publication.
01
Agreement to These Terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legally binding agreement between you and APLLET LLC (“APLLET,” “PayMyShare,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your access to and use of PayMyShare websites, mobile applications, and related services that link to these Terms (collectively, the “Service”).
PayMyShare is developed, owned, and operated by APLLET LLC, a company located in New Jersey, United States.
By creating an account, accepting these Terms, purchasing a subscription, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
02
Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf.
You may not use the Service if applicable law prohibits you from receiving it, if we previously terminated your account for violating these Terms, or if you lack legal capacity to enter this agreement. If you use the Service for an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it, and “you” includes that organization.
04
Not a Payment or Financial Service
PayMyShare does not maintain a wallet, hold or store user funds, connect to bank accounts, issue payment cards, or initiate, process, or transmit payments.
A “settled” entry only records information entered by a user about a payment or adjustment completed outside PayMyShare. PayMyShare does not receive, verify, reverse, insure, guarantee, or resolve that external payment.
PayMyShare does not provide financial, tax, accounting, credit, debt-collection, or legal advice. Calculations and records are provided for convenience and may contain errors, rounding differences, duplicate entries, currency-conversion differences, or incomplete information. Obtain professional advice when needed.
05
Accounts and Security
PayMyShare login is email-based only. When creating or maintaining an account, you agree to:
- Provide accurate and current information.
- Use an email address you are authorized to use.
- Keep your password and authentication credentials confidential.
- Use reasonable measures to prevent unauthorized access.
- Promptly contact PayMyShare support if you suspect unauthorized access.
- Accept responsibility for account activity, except to the extent caused by our failure to use legally required safeguards.
You may not impersonate another person, use information without authorization, transfer or sell your account, or let another person use it in a way that violates these Terms.
07
User Content
“User Content” means information or material you submit to the Service, including group information, expense descriptions, receipts, images, comments, notes, reminders, profile images, feedback, and settlement records.
You retain ownership of your User Content. You grant APLLET LLC a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, technically modify, display, and transmit it only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, support, improve, and provide the Service; follow your instructions; and meet legal obligations. This license ends when content is deleted from active systems, subject to shared records, backups, legal retention, and the Privacy Policy.
You represent that:
- You own the content or have permission to submit and share it.
- The content and our permitted use will not violate law or another person’s rights.
- The content is not knowingly false, fraudulent, or misleading in a way that could cause harm.
We do not endorse User Content or guarantee its accuracy. We may remove or restrict content that violates these Terms, creates legal or security risk, or interferes with the Service. We are not required to monitor all User Content.
08
Acceptable Use
You may use the Service only for lawful expense record keeping. You may not:
- Use it for fraud, deception, extortion, harassment, threats, unlawful collection activity, or other illegal conduct.
- Enter fabricated expenses or settlements to deceive or harm someone.
- Upload unlawful, abusive, threatening, discriminatory, or privacy-invasive content.
- Upload malware or code intended to damage, disrupt, monitor, or gain unauthorized access.
- Access another account or non-public area without authorization.
- Scrape, crawl, harvest, or extract data except through expressly authorized features.
- Reverse engineer or bypass security controls except where applicable law expressly permits.
- Use automation to create accounts, send spam, overload the Service, or manipulate usage.
- Copy, sell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service except as permitted.
- Infringe legal rights, misrepresent an affiliation, or help another person do any prohibited act.
We may investigate suspected violations and cooperate with lawful requests, subject to applicable law and our Privacy Policy.
10
Third-Party Services
The Service may contain links to third-party websites, app stores, subscription processors, or services. Their products, transactions, availability, security, and privacy practices are controlled by them and governed by their terms and policies.
PayMyShare does not control or endorse a third-party service merely by linking to it. To the fullest extent permitted by law, APLLET LLC is not responsible for loss arising from your independent transaction or relationship with a third party. No third-party link changes the rule that PayMyShare does not hold funds or transmit payments between users.
11
Intellectual Property
The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics, trademarks, logos, interfaces, calculations, and content supplied by us, is owned by APLLET LLC or its licensors and protected by intellectual-property laws.
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for its intended purpose. No other rights are granted. “PayMyShare,” its logo, and related names and designs are marks of APLLET LLC and may not be used without written permission.
Feedback
If you voluntarily send suggestions or feedback, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use it without restriction or compensation. This does not transfer ownership of your User Content or personal information.
12
Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information. It is incorporated into these Terms to the extent permitted by law. If these Terms conflict with the Privacy Policy concerning our treatment of personal information, the Privacy Policy controls.
13
Copyright Complaints
We respect intellectual-property rights. If you believe content available through the Service infringes your copyright, send a written notice containing the information required by 17 U.S.C. Section 512(c)(3). Identify the copyrighted work and material, provide your contact information, include the required good-faith and accuracy statements, and provide a physical or electronic signature.

We may remove allegedly infringing content and terminate repeat infringers where appropriate. Misrepresenting infringement may create liability. This section is not legal advice about copyright notices or counter-notices.
14
Suspension and Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time and may delete your account through available settings or the Account Deletion page.
We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access when we reasonably believe you violated these Terms; created fraud, security, legal, or safety risk; failed to pay a subscription fee; or used the Service in a way that could harm users or the Service. When practical and legally permitted, we will provide notice and an opportunity to correct the issue.
We may discontinue all or part of the Service. If a prepaid Pro feature is discontinued before the end of its paid term, we will provide any refund required by law or platform rules. Sections that by their nature should survive will survive termination.
Changes to the Service or these Terms
We may modify features or update these Terms. We will give reasonable advance notice of material changes where required. The updated Terms will identify their effective date and apply prospectively unless law permits otherwise. Continued use after that date constitutes acceptance. If you disagree, stop using the Service and cancel any renewing subscription.
15
Disclaimers
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” APLLET LLC DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED, AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, SECURITY, AND QUIET ENJOYMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, COMPLETELY SECURE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS; THAT CALCULATIONS OR USER ENTRIES WILL BE ACCURATE; OR THAT USER DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED.
You are responsible for verifying expenses, balances, receipts, settlements, reports, tax information, and other records before relying on them. Your use of the Service and dealings with other users are at your own risk. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so some may not apply to you.
16
Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, APLLET LLC AND ITS MEMBERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, AND LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OPPORTUNITIES; OR LOSS ARISING FROM USER CONTENT, INCORRECT CALCULATIONS, SHARED-EXPENSE DISPUTES, OR EXTERNAL PAYMENTS.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING FROM THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO APLLET LLC FOR THE SERVICE DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR 100 U.S. DOLLARS.
Nothing excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability resulting from fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence where applicable, or violation of non-waivable consumer rights. These limitations apply regardless of the form of action, even if a remedy fails its essential purpose. Some jurisdictions do not permit certain limitations.
Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless APLLET LLC and its members, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from your User Content, unlawful misuse, material violation of these Terms, or infringement of another person’s rights.
This does not apply to the extent a claim results from APLLET LLC’s unlawful conduct, gross negligence, or willful misconduct. We may control the defense, and you agree to reasonably cooperate. We will not settle a claim imposing non-monetary obligations on you without your consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.
17
Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by New Jersey law and applicable federal law, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.
Before filing a lawsuit, you and APLLET LLC agree to make a good-faith attempt to resolve the dispute by sending written notice describing the claim and requested relief to the address in Contact Us . Either party may seek urgent injunctive relief without completing this process.
Except where consumer law requires otherwise, disputes must be brought in state or federal courts located in Middlesex County, New Jersey, and each party consents to their jurisdiction. Eligible individual claims may be brought in small-claims court. Nothing waives a non-waivable right or remedy under applicable New Jersey consumer-protection law.
Miscellaneous
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and purchase terms accepted at checkout are the entire agreement concerning the Service. Specific purchase terms control only that purchase; the Privacy Policy controls our treatment of personal information.
- If a provision is invalid, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remaining provisions stay effective.
- Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
- You may not assign these Terms without written consent. We may assign them in a qualifying corporate transaction, subject to law.
- These Terms create no third-party rights unless expressly stated.
- You agree to receive agreements, notices, receipts, and communications electronically, subject to applicable withdrawal or paper-record rights.
- Headings are for convenience and do not affect interpretation.
