Pricing for Paid Courses
Key Definitions
“Base Price” means the course price set by the Instructor.
“Base Currency” means the currency of the Base Price.
“Base Exchange Rate” means a system-wide rate used by the Organization for foreign currency conversion and does not include any fee or mark-up by the Organization. The rate is established using one or more third parties such as Open Exchange Rates and is fixed periodically (e.g. monthly) to prevent daily price fluctuations. Accordingly, the Base Exchange Rate may not be identical to the applicable market rate in effect at the specific time a foreign currency conversion is processed.
“Sale Price” means the actual sale price for the Course. When the Sale Currency is different from the Base Currency, the Organization will determine the Sale Price based on the applicable Base Exchange Rate and Cost Adjustment Factor.
“Sale Currency” means the currency of the sale. This is determined by the country of origin of the User purchasing the Course.
“Cost Adjustment Factor” means applicable local taxes and other fees associated with currency conversions. In regions that use a common currency, e.g., the EU, the Cost Adjustment Factor uses a weighted average of country specific tax rates to ensure the same prices to end customers across the region.
Pricing
Except when a Course is made available through the Give N Go marketing programs, or a course is offered on Organization’s iOS mobile applications, an instructor will be solely responsible for determining the base price to be charged for such course, in accordance with the instructor terms. In the case of courses offered on Organization’s iOS applications, Organization will select the Apple App Store price tier (App Store pricing matrix available here) that is closest to the fee set by the instructor. When the Sale currency is different than the base currency, the Organization will determine the sale price according to the most recent base exchange rate and applicable cost adjustment factor.
If you are a student, you agree to pay the fees for courses that You take, and hereby authorize Us to charge Your credit card for these amounts. We will charge your credit card monthly for all amounts owed. If your credit card is declined, you agree to pay Us the fees within thirty (30) days of notification from us, and pay (at our discretion) a late payment charge at 1.5% per month, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is greater.
Payment
Payments are processed by our payment partners. Outside of the EU, student payments are paid to Give N Go Inc. For students from the European Union, payments may be paid to Give N Go Inc.
Taxes
European Union
In the event that the sale or delivery of a course or any submitted content to any Student in the European Union is subject to any value added tax (“VAT”), under applicable law, Give N Go will collect and remit the VAT to the competent tax authorities for sales of such Courses or Submitted Content to Students in the European Union. Give N Go may at its own discretion increase the Sale Price where Give N Go is of the view that VAT may be due and Give N Go will have a liability to account for such. You will indemnify and hold Give N Go harmless against any and all claims by any tax authority for any underpayment of VAT, and any penalties and/or interest thereon.
All other countries
For sales of any of courses or submitted content in countries other than the European Union, You are responsible for remitting the taxes to the appropriate taxing authority (which may be different to the tax authority in your own location). Give N Go is unable to provide you with tax advice and You should consult your own tax advisor.
Rounding Off
Organization may, in its sole discretion, round up or round down the Sale Price to the nearest whole functional base unit in which the Sale Currency is denominated (e.g. to the nearest dollar, euro or other supported currency); for example, Organization will round up an amount of $102.50 to $103.00, and $102.49 to $102.00.
Some currencies are denominated in large numbers. In those cases, Organization may determine the functional base unit in which those currencies are denominated to be 10, 100 or 1,000 of the currency; the corresponding examples for such currencies would be for Organization to round up an amount of 2,045 up to 2,050 and 2,044 down to 2,040, or 45,450 up to 45,500 and 55,449 down to 55,400, or 637,500 up to 638,000 and 737,499 down to 737,000.
Foreign Currency
Organization’s online platform will default the sale currency based on your geographic location. The currency of any transaction will match the sale currency displayed to you on the website. You cannot change your displayed currency.
Each foreign currency conversion is processed at a foreign currency conversion rate. This rate generally refers to the amount of one currency that must be paid to buy a certain amount of another currency at a given time. For example, if it costs US$125.00 to buy €100.00, the currency conversion rate of US dollars to Euros would be 1.25, and the currency conversion rate from Euros to US dollars would be 0.8. Currency conversion rates will vary from time to time.
Refunds
Give N Go offers Students a thirty (30)-day, no-questions-asked money back guarantee on Courses that are not purchased through Give N Go’s iOS or Android applications. If you, as a student, are unhappy with such a course and request a refund within thirty (30) days of the date that you paid for access to that course, we will provide you with a full refund of the amount you paid. To request a refund, please contact us via [email protected]. Please note that if we believe that you are abusing our refund policy in our sole discretion, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse or restrict any and all current or future use of the Organization products, without any liability to you. In addition, please note that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these terms, Give N Go does not provide refunds for Courses purchased through our iOS or Android applications. All sales of courses through Give N Go’s iOS or Android applications are final.
You, as an Instructor, acknowledge and agree that Students have the right to receive a refund as set forth in this section. Neither Instructors nor Organization shall receive any payments, fees or commissions for any transactions for which a refund has been granted. In the event that a Student requests a refund for a course after Give N Go has sent an Instructor payment for that course, Give N Go reserves the right to either (1) deduct the amount of such refund from the next payment to be sent to that Instructor, or (2) require that Instructor to refund any amounts refunded to students for instructor’s course to the extent no additional payments are due from Give N Go to instructor or such payments due instructor are insufficient to cover the amounts refunded to students.

INSTRUCTOR TERMS
Updated on January 11, 2016
Key Definitions
“Base Price” means the course price set by the instructor.
“Base Currency” means the currency of the base price.
“Base Exchange Rate” means a system-wide rate used by the organization for foreign currency conversion and does not include any fee or mark-up by the organization. The rate is established using one or more third parties such as open exchange rates and is fixed periodically (e.g. monthly) to prevent daily price fluctuations. Accordingly, the Base Exchange Rate may not be identical to the applicable market rate in effect at the specific time a foreign currency conversion is processed.
“Sale Price” means the actual sale price for the course. When the sale currency is different from the Base Currency, the Organization will determine the Sale Price based on the applicable Base Exchange Rate and Cost Adjustment Factor.
“Sale Currency” means the currency of the sale. This is determined by the country of origin of the User purchasing the Course.
“Cost Adjustment Factor” means applicable local taxes and other fees associated with currency conversions. In regions that use a common currency, e.g., the EU, the Cost Adjustment Factor uses a weighted average of country specific tax rates to ensure the same prices to end customers across the region.
“Net Amount” means the amount actually received from students for your course, less any refunds paid, applicable sales or other taxes (VAT in EU), and any amounts paid in connection with marketing programs that you participate in.
Pricing
As an Instructor, You will be solely responsible for determining the Base Price You charge Students for Your Courses. You agree to charge only for your own submitted content. The organization will handle billing and other fee interaction with users. When the sale currency is different than the base currency, Give N Go will determine the sale price according to the most recent Base Exchange Rate and applicable Cost Adjustment Factor.
If you choose to participate in any of the organization’s marketing programs, the fee you receive from the Organization will be in accordance with the terms of the particular Marketing Program that applies to the sale of Your Course. Otherwise you will receive the following:
- Generally, the organization will pay you sixty percent (60%) of the Net Amount received for Your Course. The Net Amount equals the amount actually received from Students for Your Course, less any refunds paid, applicable sales or other taxes (if any), applicable fees for mobile application sales from either the Apple App Store or Google Play, and any amounts paid in connection with marketing programs that You participate in. The net amount will typically be based on the base price, but organization reserves the right to increase or decrease the base price in connection with the organization’s marketing and promotional efforts (including through marketing programs).
- You will be able to increase your portion of the fee by promoting your courses by using a coupon code that you have created on Give N Go in accordance with the instructions found a twww.givengo.org. For those users that input your coupon code at the time they enroll in your course, you will receive one-hundred percent (100%) of the net amount, less a three percent (3%) administrative and handling fee, except in the territory of Japan, where the administrative and handling fee shall be four percent (4%).
You authorize the organization to perform the appropriate calculations, deduct and retain the transaction fee, and pay you the net amount as indicated above.
Marketing programs include, but are not limited to, organization’s deals program and marketing boost program. You acknowledge that the amounts paid for marketing programs are not fixed, and the organization has the sole discretion to determine those amounts and which courses to offer as part of Marketing Programs. Further, the organization does not guarantee any minimum level of success in connection with any marketing programs, and its selection of courses to include is not an endorsement of those courses, or of you. As part of your participation in marketing programs, you give us permission to share your course, and information about you and the course with Give N Go employees and selected partners, for which you will not receive compensation.
