To become a user, it is necessary to fill in the registration form accessible from the home page of the site or when creating a money pool. Registration requires acceptance of these T&Cs. When registering, visitors guarantee the accuracy of the data they provide.

Money pool creation and administration

Creation

Any user can create a money pool if they wish. To do so, they must enter:

  • The name of the event for which funding is requested.
  • The name of the event organizer.
  • A description of the event.

What's more, organizers can upload an image of their choice to illustrate their money pool, as well as choose the category of their event using different, self-explanatory pictograms.

The name of the event, its description and the name of the organizer must be filled in carefully. These fields determine the purpose of the mandate given by the participants to the organizer. Their content is the sole responsibility of the organizer.

A number of options, such as participant anonymity, contribution amounts and information for the organizer, are at the organizer's discretion and will soon be available on the site. Lastly, the organizer can set a deadline for participation in the money pool, which is displayed to guests as an indication only.

Administration

Once the money pool has been created, the organizer can :

  • Modify all of the above. Modifications are the sole responsibility of the organizer. These modifications alone do not alter in any way the object of the contract of mandate or sale which existed between the participants and the organizer before they were published.
  • Invite new participants and consult the guest list.
  • Track details of contributions paid and check reminders sent to guests.
  • Early closure of the money pool. Invitations and entries will then be suspended until the organizer reactivates the money pool.
  • Request cancellation of the money poolby contacting customer service at contact@tiing.ca, provided no entry fee has been paid.
  • Collect the money pool.

In general, the organizer is responsible for the administration of the money pool. He/she is responsible for ensuring that all elements on the money pool page comply with current regulations and good morals.

Participation in a money pool

Participation

Guests can participate in the money pool by making a payment using their credit card.

The payment platform is managed by the Stripe secure payment interface.

The guest may also decline the invitation.

By making a contribution to a money pool, the participant authorizes the organizer to use all or part of the contribution to finance the event described on the money pool page. In the case of a sale, the payment of a participation entails the conclusion of a sales contract between the organizer and the participant, in accordance with the terms and conditions detailed on the money pool page.

Internet users should only participate in money pool where the organizer is someone they trust.

As Tiing is not the final recipient of the funds, it does not issue invoices. Stripe will send a payment confirmation email that will act as an invoice.

Withdrawal of participation

The participant may, as long as the money pool has not been collected or closed and without giving a reason, request the withdrawal of his participation. To be valid, the withdrawal must be requested from contact@tiing.ca. Withdrawal may be partial, in which case the amount to be reimbursed must be specified in the request.

Withdrawal entails reimbursement of the participation fee within fifteen (15) days.

However, the commission paid to Tiing cannot be reimbursed under any circumstances.

The participant is solely responsible to the money pool organizer for the consequences of withdrawing his or her participation. The $1 charge levied by Tiing for financial expenses at the time of each entry is non-refundable.

Customer knowledge

In accordance with regulations, we must identify certain users.

Tiing reserves the right to ask users to authenticate themselves if it deems this necessary as part of the procedure defined by anti-money laundering and antiterrorist financing regulations.

Using the Money pool

The organizer is solely responsible for the proper use of the funds collected, i.e. the cumulative sum of the entries in his money pool. Where applicable, this use must comply with the mandate given by each participant. The participant declares to have been informed that Tiing is in no way responsible for the use made by the organizer of the amount of the participations.

The organizer must reside in Canada and have a bank account in Canada in order to request payment into his bank account.

If desired, the organizer can collect from the "My Account" interface, option "Use money". To access this option, they must enter their password and e-mail address. To collect funds, a bank transfer must be requested. To do so, the organizer must choose one of three payment methods, and must enter a security question and a security answer for a transfer to his bank account. The amount of a deposit is the total amount collected in the money pool. It is not possible to request only part of the amount collected at this time.

Only transfers to a credit institution in CANADA are possible. The organizer is responsible for the data he gives to Tiing and Stripe for the purpose of a transfer. The transfer will be made within a maximum of 5 to 7 working days once the organizer has requested the payment. Tiing cannot be held responsible for any incorrect information given by the user for the transfer.

Rates

For Tiing's service:

  • a 4% commission is applied to the bank transfer when the money pool amount is reached and the money pool is closed or the date expires.
  • a fixed fee of $1 is deducted from each transaction made by the participant to finance the financial costs deducted by our payment operator Stripe.

Illegal, fraudulent events

The organizer undertakes not to organize any illegal events. Illegal events include, but are not limited to, radical or discriminatory extremist meetings, pornographic or violent events.

Tiing reserves the right to suspend the event and take the organizer offline if an illegal event is organized, or more generally in the event of non-compliance with these Terms and Conditions of Use, or if the feedback from participants to the company's customer service department is negative.

In this case, Tiing may block funds for an indefinite period and reserves the right to reimburse participants (excluding commission).

Cancelling an account

The user may request cancellation of his account. To do so, he/she must inform Customer Service at contact@tiing.ca. After a maximum period of fifteen (15) days, the cancellation is effective. The user will then no longer have access to his personal space and will no longer be able to administer the money pools he has created.

If there are any unclosed money pool that have been entered, the customer service department will inform the user, who must indicate within fifteen (15) days whether he wishes to collect his money pool. At the end of this period, silence on the part of the user will result in the automatic cancellation of the money pool. The organizer is solely responsible for the consequences of cancellations with the participants.

Account deletion

Tiing reserves the right to suspend or terminate a user's account immediately and without notice in the event of a breach of these TOS.

Cancellation of an account has the same effect as termination.
