1. SAVINGS ACCOUNT AGREEMENT AND DISCLOSURES


This agreement contains the Consumer Savings Account Agreement (the "Agreement) for the interest-bearing savings account ("Savings Account" or "Account") made available to eligible consumers by Sutton Bank (the “Bank”), a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Revolut Technologies Inc. ("Revolut") maintains the platform through which you access the Account. ("Platform"). Revolut is the program partner responsible for providing customer service to you. "We", "our", and "us" refer to the Bank, our successors, affiliates, or assignees. "You" and "your" refer to the owner of the Savings Account.


You may submit a request to open a Savings Account by using the Platform mobile application (the "Mobile App"). The Savings Account will be linked to your account on the Platform (the “Platform Account”) and is not designed for business use. We may close the account if we determine it is being used for business purposes. We may refuse to process any transaction(s) we believe may violate the terms of this Agreement or applicable law.


Business Days: Our business days are Monday through Friday, excluding United States (“U.S.”) federal holidays.


Our privacy policy is available here and is considered part of this Agreement.


2. SAVINGS ACCOUNT BASICS

Who is eligible for a Savings Account:

The Savings Account is available only to Platform customers in good standing, permanent residents of the fifty (50) US States and the District of Columbia who are at least 18 years of age with a valid Social Security number or individual tax identification number. You must agree to accept electronic, rather than paper statements. This means; (i) you must keep us supplied with your valid email address; and (ii) you must agree to accept electronic delivery of all Account communications (like end-of-year tax forms and electronic statements) as provided in the Consent to Use Electronic Signatures and Communications and Statements Section below.

We may use information from third parties to help us determine if we should open the Savings Account.

Opening a Savings Account

Important information about procedures for opening a new Savings Account.

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens a Savings Account which will include: your name, physical address, date of birth, individual tax identification number, and other information, including any documents we deem necessary to verify your identity. In some cases this information and documents, will be provided to us by the Platform, which will allow us to identify you.

The Savings Account

The Savings Account consists of the interest-bearing online savings account used to hold your deposits and make a limited amount of Online Transfers (as defined below).

Titling and Ownership

A Savings Account may only be owned and titled in the name of one (1) person who shall solely retain the right to direct the deposit or transfer of funds. The Savings Account cannot be owned or titled jointly, by an organization, as Payable on Death or "In Trust For".

Death or Incapacitation

You or your appointed party, designee, or appointed individual agree to notify us promptly if you become legally incapacitated, are deemed incompetent, or die. We will continue to accept deposits and process transaction instructions into and from the Savings Account until we are: (a) notified of your death or adjudication of incompetency and (b) have a reasonable opportunity to act. You agree that, even if we have knowledge of your death we may pay or process transactions involving the Savings Account on or before the date of death for up to ten (10) days after that date unless ordered to stop by someone claiming interest in the Savings Account. We may require additional documentation to confirm any claims made on the Savings Account.

Power of Attorney

We may, but are not required to, honor your orders and instructions to give another person authority to make transactions on your Savings Account by giving power of attorney to another individual. The account owner and person executing power of attorney over a deposit account is known as the "Principal." The person granted power of attorney for the Principal is known as the "Agent." We may refuse to accept a power of attorney for reasonable cause, and we may require the Agent to sign an affidavit stating that the power of attorney presented to us is a true copy and that, to the best of the Agent's knowledge, the Principal continues to be alive and competent and that the relevant powers of the Agent have not been amended or terminated. The Principal is responsible to provide us with any information if an affidavit presented to us is untrue or misleading or if the Agent exceeds the authority granted by the Principal in the power of attorney. The Agent is required to notify us in writing if the Principal dies or is declared incompetent. The power of attorney will continue in force until a) we receive written revocation from the Principal; b) we receive written notification of the Principal's death, or c) we receive written notification of the death or incapacity of the Agent.

Our Relationship With You

This Agreement and the deposit relationship do not create a fiduciary relationship between you and the Bank.


3. GENERAL RULES GOVERNING THE SAVINGS ACCOUNT

Use of the Savings Account is subject to all applicable rules and customs of any clearinghouse or other association involved in transactions.

If any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable under any rule, law, or regulation of any governmental agency, local, state, or federal, the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement shall not be affected.

Limits on Online Transfers from your Savings Account

Overpayments and Reversals.

If funds are deposited or transferred into your Savings Account by mistake or otherwise, we may correct the situation by deducting the amount of the deposit or transfer from your Savings Account without prior notice to you. If there are not enough funds in your Savings Account at that time, your Savings Account could become overdrawn. See the "No Overdrafts" and "Right to Set Off" sections below for more information about what could occur if your Savings Account has a negative balance.

No Deposits in Cash, Paper Checks or Foreign Currency

We are not liable for any deposits, including cash, lost in the mail, lost in transit, or not received by us.

● Cash - We do not accept deposits made in cash. If you mail a cash deposit, the cash will be sent back to the address we have for you on file.

● Paper Checks - Personal checks, cashier's checks, and money orders may not be deposited by mail or in person. All checks and money orders sent to us for deposit will be returned unless the full amount may be applied towards a negative balance, in which case the check or money order may or may not be deposited to the Account at our discretion.

● Foreign Currency - We will only accept deposits or transfers in US Dollars. If you initiate a transfer to your Savings Account in a foreign currency, the funds will be automatically converted into US Dollars by the Platform prior to deposit in your Savings Account. See Platform rules for additional details.

No Overdrafts

You are not permitted to overdraw your Savings Account. If the available balance in your Savings Account is not sufficient to cover any payment or withdrawal you have authorized, we may refuse to process the payment or withdrawal. If your Savings Account balance becomes negative for any reason, you must make a deposit or transfer immediately to cover the negative balance. If your Savings Account has a negative balance for an extended period of time and you have another account with us, we reserve the right to exercise our right to set off. See the "Right to Set Off" section below for details. If your Savings Account has a negative balance for ninety (90) calendar days or more it will be closed. In the event you fail to pay the amount of any overdraft, and we refer your overdrawn account to an attorney for collection, you agree to pay all reasonable expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs incurred by us as a result of your account being overdrawn.

Right to Set Off

We have the right to set-off any liability, direct or contingent, past, present or future that you owe against any account you have with us. Further, you grant us a lien on and security interest in the funds on deposit in each of your account(s) as security for all of your liabilities and obligations to us, now or in the future. We will notify you if we have exercised our right to set off.

Legal Processes Affecting Savings Accounts

If legal action such as a garnishment, levy or other state of federal legal process ("Legal Process") is brought against the Savings Account, we may refuse to permit (or may limit) transfers from it until the Legal Process is satisfied or dismissed. Regardless of the terms of such garnishment, levy or other state or federal process, we have first claim to any and all funds in your Savings Account. We will not contest on your behalf any such Legal Process and may take action to comply with such Legal Process as we determine to be appropriate in the circumstances without liability to you, even if any funds we may be required to pay out leaves insufficient funds for a transfer you have authorized. Payment is made after satisfying any fees, charges or other debts owed to us. You agree that you are responsible for any expenses, including legal expenses and fees we incur due to any Legal Process affecting your Savings Account. We may charge these expenses to your Savings Account. You will indemnify us for any losses if we do this.

Account Inactivity and Escheatment

For purposes of this paragraph, customer-initiated activity includes any Online Transfers you make to or from the Savings Account. Additionally, a Savings Account that is inactive for a period of time may be considered dormant and is subject to escheatment. Each state has varying laws as to when an account is subject to escheatment, and we may be required to send the balance in your Account to the state of your last known address.
