Payment Plan

  • I agree to pay the first installment, and thereafter to pay any remaining payments, which will be made through automatic charges to my credit card or debit card. On your final due date, all other amounts owing under this Agreement shall also be due. All payments shall be made to the American Council on Exercise (ACE). No bills or invoices will be issued for any payments, except that a bill or invoice may be issued for past due amounts. Any past due amounts shall remain due and owning even if a bill or invoice is not issued. You may prepay your entire outstanding balance at any time with no penalty. There will not be any interest or finance charges if payments are made on time. A fee of $25 will be charged for all declined payments and your account will be placed on hold status until payment is received. If a payment declines after you have sat for the exam, your certification will be put on hold and not issued until full payment is received.
  • Partial payments of the amounts due under this Agreement are not allowed. Should you default in the payment of any installment when due, ACE may at its option declare the unpaid total of payments to be immediately due and payable without demand or notice. You agree that you may be held responsible for paying the expenses ACE incurs in attempting to collect any amounts due under this Agreement that are past due. For all past-due amounts, interest shall accrue at the rate of 10% per annum or the highest rated allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower.
  • ACE may delay or waive the enforcement of any of the provisions of the Agreement, including your promise to make timely payments, without losing the right to enforce them later. You agree to waive your right to receive a notice of any waiver or delay. This Agreement supersedes all prior oral or written understanding between you and ACE and constitutes the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be modified, amended or supplemented except in writing and signed by authorized representatives of all Parties or except as otherwise provided herein. Should any term of this Agreement be deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms shall remain in full force and effect. The validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, excluding its conflict-of-laws provisions, and further excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The Parties irrevocably submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts in San Diego, California, USA.
  • NOTICE: ANY HOLDER OF THIS CONSUMER CREDIT CONTRACT IS SUBJECT TO ALL CLAIMS AND DEFENSES WHICH THE DEBTOR COULD ASSERT AGAINST THE SELLER OF GOODS OR SERVICES OBTAINED PURSUANT HERETO OR WITH THE PROCEEDS HEREOF.
