POS Wheeler Terms and Conditions
Welcome to POS Wheeler! We provide a POS system for restaurants, cafes and other hospitality providers
(Services), as set out in more detail on our website (Site).
In these Terms, when we say you or your, we mean you as an individual if you are accepting these Terms
for yourself. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of an entity (such as your employer) and you are
authorised to do so, then you or your means that entity. When we say we, us, or our, we mean POS
WHEELER (ABN 26 651 178 538).
These terms and conditions (Terms) form our contract with you, and set out our obligations as a service
provider and your obligations as a customer. You cannot use the Services unless you agree to these Terms.
Some capitalised words in these Terms have defined meanings, and each time that word is used in these
Terms it has the same meaning. You can find a list of the defined words and their meaning at the end of
these Terms.
OUR DISCLOSURES
Please read these Terms carefully before you accept. We draw your attention to:
our privacy policy (on the Site) which sets out how we will handle your personal information;
clause 1.9 (Variations) which sets out how we may amend these Terms;
clause 3 (Fees) which sets out important information about payments and recurring services, including
whether you can cancel the Services and whether any of the Services auto-renew; and
clause 10 (Liability) which sets out exclusions and limitations to our liability under these Terms.
We may receive a benefit (which may include a referral fee or a commission) should you visit certain third
party websites through a link in the Services, or for featuring certain goods or services on the Services.
These Terms do not intend to limit your rights and remedies at law, including any of your Consumer
Law Rights.
1. Engagement and Term
1.1 These Terms apply from the time you agree to these Terms, until the date these Terms are terminated
in accordance with their Terms (Term).
1.2 Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we will provide you with access to the Services. The
Services require compatible hardware (including but not limited to tablets, card readers, receipt
printers, and cash drawers) to function properly. We do not supply hardware as part of the Services.
While we may refer you to third-party hardware suppliers, you are solely responsible for purchasing,
installing, and maintaining all hardware required to use the Services. We make no representations or
warranties regarding any third-party hardware or suppliers, and any arrangements you make with
hardware suppliers are independent of these Terms.
1.3 Where we require access to your premises or computer systems in order to provide the Services, you
agree to provide us with such access free from risk to the safety of our employees and contractors.
1.4 Where the Services include the provision of an application programming interface (API), you agree to
only use the API in accordance with the documentation that we provide to you through our Site or
otherwise.
1.5 We will provide the Services, which include access to our POS system software and Support Services.
Our Support Services may include technical assistance, software updates, and troubleshooting,
subject to any limitations or service levels set out on our Site, these terms or in your Account. We will
not be responsible for any other services unless expressly set out in these Terms or on our Site.
1.6 If we provide you with access to any new or beta services, you acknowledge that because of the
developmental nature of such services, you use them at your own risk and we have no obligation to
maintain or provide error corrections. Any new or beta services we provide you with access to are for
evaluation purposes only and not for production use, and we may discontinue those services at any
time at our sole discretion.
1.7 Where you engage third parties to operate alongside the Services (for example, any third-party
software systems you wish to integrate with the Services, or third-party hardware suppliers), those
third parties are independent of us. You are responsible for (meaning we will not be liable for) the
goods or services they provide, including any hardware you purchase to use with the Services, unless
we expressly agree otherwise in writing. While we may refer you to hardware suppliers or other third-
party providers, such referrals do not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, or warranty of any
kind. We are not liable for the quality, compatibility, performance, or any other aspect of third-party
hardware or services.
1.8 You are responsible for ensuring that any hardware you use with the Services meets our minimum
specifications and compatibility requirements, which are set out on our Site and may be updated from
time to time. We do not guarantee that the Services will be compatible with all hardware, and we are
not liable for any issues arising from the use of incompatible, faulty, or improperly configured
hardware. If we provide you with hardware specifications or refer you to hardware suppliers, this
information is provided for convenience only and does not constitute a warranty that such hardware
will be suitable for your specific needs or will function without error.
1.9 We may amend these Terms at any time, by providing written notice to you. By clicking “I accept” or
continuing to use the Services after the notice or 30 days after notification (whichever date is earlier),
you agree to the amended Terms. If you do not agree to the amendment, you should cease using the
Services. If you have paid upfront for recurring access to any of the Services (excluding one-time
purchases) and you would like to cancel them, please contact us in writing within 30 days of receiving
notice to cancel that recurring access and we will issue you a pro-rata refund for such Services.
2. Account
2.1 You must sign up for an Account in order to access and use the Services.
2.2 You may invite Authorised Users to access and use the Services under your Account. You are
responsible for ensuring that your Authorised Users comply with these Terms. You may change who
your Authorised Users are at any time through your Account, and what access rights or permissions
they have when using the Services. Any limitations on the number of Authorised Users you can have
will be set out in your Account or on the Services.
2.3 While you have an Account with us, you agree to (and to ensure your Authorised Users agree to):
(a) keep your information up-to-date (and ensure it remains true, accurate and complete);
(b) keep usernames and passwords secure and confidential, and protect them from misuse or
being stolen; and
(c) notify us if you become aware of, or have reason to suspect, any unauthorised access to your
Account or any logins linked to your Account.
2.4 If you close your Account, you and your Authorised Users will lose access to the Services.
3. Fees
3.1 You may choose to purchase Services from us, as set out on our Site (Paid Services). Paid Services
may include one-time purchases or recurring Services. You must pay all amounts due under these
Terms in accordance with these Terms or as set out on our Site (as applicable).
3.2 We may offer free trials for certain Paid Services. At the end of the free trial, you will either begin to be
charged for the Paid Service or lose access to it (unless you sign up to it as a Paid Service), as
specified in the trial offer you sign up to.
3.3 Details of our Paid Services, including features, limitations, fees and billing cycles (for recurring
services) are set out on our Site or as advised by us to you. For recurring services, you will be billed
on a regular basis, as set out on our Site or advised by us to you, at the beginning of each billing
cycle. All other Paid Services must be paid for at the time you order the Service.
3.4 Cancellation: All recurring Services continue for the agreed Service term (that you selected when
purchasing the Service) (Service Term). At the end of each Service Term, provided you have paid all
fees owing, your recurring Services will be automatically renewed for the same term. If you wish to
cancel your recurring Services, you may do so through your Account. Your cancellation will take effect
at the end of your current Service Term, and the recurring Services will not be renewed (meaning you
will need to continue paying all fees due up until your current Service Term ends). If you are on an
annual Service Term, we will provide you with a renewal reminder at least 30 days prior to the
Services renewing.
3.5 Our payments methods will be set out at the time you purchase the Services. If you choose to pay
your fees using one of our third-party payment processors, you may need to accept their terms and
conditions (if this is the case, these will be set out at the time you make payment).
3.6 You must not pay, or attempt to pay, any fees due under these Terms or as a result of your use of the
Services by fraudulent or unlawful means. If you make payment by debit or credit card, you must be
the authorised card holder. If payment is made by direct debit, by providing your bank account details
and accepting these Terms, you authorise our nominated third-party payment processor to debit your
bank account, and you confirm that you are either the holder or an authorised signatory of that bank
account.
3.7 If any fees due under these Terms or as a result of your use of the Services are not paid on time, we
may:
(a) suspend your access to the Services; and
(b) charge interest on any overdue payments at a rate equal to the Reserve Bank of Australia’s
cash rate, from time-to-time, plus 2% per annum, calculated daily and compounding monthly.
3.8 You are responsible for paying any levies or taxes associated with your use of the Services, for
example sales taxes, value-added taxes or withholding taxes (unless we are required by law to collect
these on your behalf).

cancellation of the specific Service. For recurring services, we grant you and your Authorised Users a
right to access the relevant Services only for the duration that you continue to pay for the Service,
subject to these Terms. These rights cannot be passed on or transferred to any other person.
4.3 You must not (and you must ensure that your Authorised Users do not):

5.5 To receive Support Services, you must provide us with accurate information about the issue and
reasonable access to relevant systems and information. We are not liable for delays in providing
Support Services caused by your failure to provide such information or access.
6. Availability, Disruption and Downtime
6.1 While we strive to always make the Services available to you, we do not make any promises that
these will be available 100% of the time. The Services may be disrupted during certain periods,
including, for example, as a result of scheduled or emergency maintenance.
6.2 The Services may interact with, or be reliant on, products or services provided by third parties, such as
cloud hosting service providers. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for
disruptions or downtime caused or contributed to by these third parties.
6.3 We will try to provide you with reasonable notice, where possible, of any disruptions to your access to
the Services.
7. Intellectual Property and Data
7.1 We own all intellectual property rights in the Services. This includes how the Services look and
function, as well as our copyrighted works, trademarks, inventions, designs and other intellectual
property. You agree not to copy or otherwise misuse our intellectual property without our written
permission (for example, to reverse engineer or discover the source code of our intellectual property),
and you must not alter or remove any confidentiality, copyright or other ownership notice placed on the
Services.
7.2 We may use any feedback or suggestions that you give us in any manner which we see fit (for
example, to develop new features), and no benefit will be owed to you as a result of any use by us of
your feedback or suggestions.
Your Data
7.3 We do not own any of Your Data, but when you enter or upload any of Your Data into the Services,
you grant us the right to access, analyse, backup, copy, store, transmit, and otherwise use Your Data
for the duration of your use of the Services (and for a reasonable period of time afterwards). We may
use Your Data (or disclose it to third party service providers) to:

Authorised Users to access and use the Services), and otherwise perform our obligations under
these Terms;

Authorised Users; and
(b) backing up Your Data.
7.6 When you use the Services, we may create anonymised statistical data from Your Data and usage of
the Services (for example, through aggregation). Once anonymised, we own that data and may use it
for our own purposes, such as to provide and improve the Services, to develop new services or
product offerings, to identify business trends, and for other uses we communicate to you. This may
include making such anonymised data publicly available, provided it is not compiled using a sample
size small enough to make underlying portions of Your Data identifiable.
7.7 If you do not provide Your Data to us, it may impact your ability to receive the Services.
7.8 This clause 7 will survive the termination or expiry of these Terms.
8. Confidential Information and Personal Information
8.1 While using the Services, you may share confidential information with us, and you may become aware
of confidential information about us. You agree not to use our confidential information, and to take
reasonable steps to protect our confidential information from being disclosed without our permission,
and we agree to do the same for your confidential information. This also means making sure that any
Authorised Users, employees, contractors, professional advisors or agents of ours or yours only have
access to confidential information on a ‘need-to-know basis’ (in other words, the disclosure is
absolutely necessary), and that they also agree to not misuse or disclose such confidential
information.
8.2 However, either you or we may share confidential information with legal or regulatory authorities if
required by law to do so.
8.3 We collect, hold and disclose and use any Personal Information you provide to us in accordance with

service providers (for example, IT and administrative service providers and our professional advisors).
8.6 Where we are required by law to report on our activities, you acknowledge that from time to time we
may request certain information from you in order to meet our requirements, and you agree to provide
us with such information within the timeframes reasonably requested by us.
8.7 This clause 8 will survive the termination or expiry of these Terms.
9. Consumer Law Rights

Law Rights), and these Terms do not restrict your Consumer Law Rights. We will only be bound by
your Consumer Law Rights and the express wording of these Terms.
9.2 Subject to your Consumer Law Rights, we do not provide a refund for a change of mind or change in
circumstance.
9.3 If you accept these Terms in Australia, nothing in these Terms should be interpreted to exclude,

the relevant Liability was caused or contributed to by the actions (or inactions) of the other
party, including any failure by the other party to mitigate its loss;
(c) (where the Services are not ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use or
consumption) in respect of any failure by us to comply with relevant Consumer Law Rights, our
Liability is limited (at our discretion) to supplying the Services again or paying the cost of having
the Services supplied again; and
(d) our aggregate liability to you for any Liability arising from or in connection with these Terms will
be limited to the amount of any fees paid by you to us during the 12 months immediately
preceding the event giving rise to the Liability, or if you have not paid for the Service, to
AU$1,000.
