Seminar/Conference/Event Guidelines:

The terms outlined in our Supplier Agreement and Operating Regulations are geared towards the standard purchase of goods and services, and are not readily serviceable for conferences, events and seminars. It is a requirement of the card association that goods/services be rendered at the time when the credit card is actually charged for a sale. In the case of a seminar/conference/event, the product is not supplied until well after the time in which the credit card is charged.

The Risk Management department of 2CO is prepared to allow for your conferences/seminars/events to be accepted per the “Restricted Product” guidelines of our Allowed Products list, based on the following conditions:

1. 2CO will hold-back 25% of each sale in a “reserve fund” pending verified completion of the event. The 25% hold-back will be released in 2 installments. The first installment will be released no earlier than 1 week following the event. This is required to allow the 2CO verification department ample time to verify that the event took place, and that there are no initial customer complaints. At this point 80% of the hold-back (approximately 20% of your total sales) will be released to you. The remaining funds will be released on the pay period 90 days after the completion of the verification process.For example:
   If your event is scheduled to take place on January 1st, the hold-back payout would be as follows:
   • approximately January 10th — 20% of total sales
   • approximately April 10th — remaining 5% of total sales (less refundsand chargebacks)

   Please note: Verification will NOT take place until after you inform 2CO that the event has taken place.*

2. Purchasers/attendees must be provided with some tangible evidence of purchase, such as a ticket, a certificate of registration, etc., at the point when the sale is made.
3. 2CO will require a guarantee that will protect us from the possibility of the event not taking place, or other circumstances that may result in large numbers of cancellations or refunds of funds that we would have paid out to you before the conference/event takes place. This should be a written statement, signed by the account holder, specifically stating 2Checkout bears no responsibility for reimbursement of ticket costs for which the vendor has already been paid in the case of canceled events.
4. 2CO will also require a completed copy of the Risk Form, a record of your business history, as well as documentation of a previous event (you may submit a newspaper posting, copy of a brochure, etc.) faxed to 614-921-2451 ATTN: Risk.

If you agree to these conditions, please respond with the requested paperwork and completed Risk Form.

Supplier must notify 2CO immediately of any changes Supplier intends to make in any of the following:

- Products offered for sale. ***Note, this applies only if you are making a fundamental change to the product or service that you have previously been approved to sell. Should you wish to start selling an entirely different product or service, you must notify us. If you are merely adding additional sizes, colors, like items, etc. to your existing approved catalog, there is no need to inform us.

- Primary Contact Information. ***Note, that if you are merely updating your email address, phone number or mailing address, there is no need to contact us. However, if you wish to update the information to reflect a new owner of the business, you must follow the account transfer instructions found here:

Can my account be transferred to someone else?

- URL or Domain Name. ***Note, you must inform us each and every time you wish to sell from a URL other than the URL that you have listed on your 2CO account. Remember, the 2CO license agreement is good for a single URL only. For information on how to obtain additional licenses at a discount, please see:

Should you make changes to your shipping or return policies and you are confident that they are in line with 2CO policies, there is no need to contact us. However, if you wish to assure that policies match our requirements, you may email the details of your policy changes to Risk@2co.com for approval.

We do not permit the sale of any Adult subscription services, chat, or any pornography (pictures, videos, DVDs, magazines)or sites that contain nudity. However, you can sell lingerie, adult toys and similar products with pre approval from the risk dept.

No. 2CO does not apply a maximum sales restriction on any account based upon dollar volume or number of sales.

Please note that a sudden increase in volume, without notification, can result in your account requiring additional verification. To assist 2CO’s staff with the verification process, we strongly encourage our suppliers to notify our staff whenever any independent marketing push or new product line may be introduced that will create a new pattern in sales utilization.

Simply submit a ticket with a request that the information be added to your account. A representative will be happy to comply and/or contact you for additional information on an as-needed basis.
