b. Memberships
Each Membership plan is subject to its Membership, FPX Transaction and Services Fees that are available on the Pricing page. The available Memberships on Billplz are as follows:
i. Basic Membership (default)
ii. Standard Membership
iii. Enterprise Membership
Upon successful verification and registration, your Billplz Account will automatically be on Basic Membership. Basic Membership provides the Default Payment Method, which is FPX Shared ID Payment Method. Please refer to item a. above.
You may choose to continue with the Basic Membership or upgrade your membership by subscribing to either Standard or Enterprise Memberships.
As the default membership, Basic Membership does not require you to subscribe to it and it lasts up until you decide to subscribe to Standard or Enterprise Membership, or terminate your Billplz Account. It also serves as a fallback in case the Standard or Enterprise Membership subscribed has lapsed.
c. Subscription Period
Whereas Basic Membership lasts ‘forever’, Standard Membership has a subscription period. If you choose Auto-Renew for your Standard Membership, you agree that at the expiry of the subscription period (and of each renewal period thereafter), your membership subscription will automatically renew for the same subscription period. For Enterprise Membership, the subscription period is subject to the Offer Letter.
If you have not selected Auto-Renew for your Standard Membership, or your Enterprise Membership expires and you opt not to renew the Membership, then Billplz will automatically downgrade your Membership to Basic Membership after the expiry of the subscription period. Where there is an automatic downgrade to the Basic Membership, your Billplz Services will be governed by Basic Membership’s features and its fees.
When you subscribe to Standard or Enterprise Membership, you are purchasing the Membership, which we add and/or integrate to your Billplz Account. Please be aware that subscribing to any of the Membership more than once will result in the additional subscriptions being applied immediately after the initial subscription expires. For example, if you subscribe to Standard Membership twice, your Membership will last for twice the period.
The Memberships subscribed are non-transferable and cannot be cancelled. Please refer to the Termination clause below for further clarification.
d. Membership Upgrade or Downgrade
You may upgrade to Standard Membership at any point in time. The upgrade is immediate and lasts until the membership subscription period expires (unless Auto-Renew is selected or you subscribe more than once).
You may upgrade to Enterprise Membership. The upgrade is not immediately available as it depends on your organization’s requirements and Billplz’s review of the membership suitability.
You may downgrade to Basic Membership at any point in time. However, as the membership subscription is by purchase-basis, your Standard Membership continues until the subscription period expires, then your Billplz Account shall be on Basic Membership. For Enterprise Membership, a downgrade is subject to the Offer Letter and Product Disclosure Sheet.
Billplz does not accept liability for any loss concerning your membership upgrade or downgrade.

You may transfer Billplz Credit in your Credit Balance to another Billplz Account. Please ensure that the details of the transfer are accurate as Billplz does not accept liability for any loss arising from its execution of transfer due to inaccurate details provided by you.
Your Credit Balance will expire after one (1) year from the date of the last Account Activity appearing in your Billplz Account. Expired Billplz Credits mean the Billplz Credits will be rendered as null and void. Billplz does not accept liability for the forfeiture of your Billplz Credit.

If there is a negative balance in your Credit Balance, Billplz will set-off the deduction amounts owed from your Payout via Auto-Reload. For example, if the amount due is -RM154, then we will deduct RM200. If the amount due is –RM1821, then we will deduct RM1900. Billplz shall be entitled to, at its sole discretion, suspend you from utilising Billplz Services until any applicable Fee, including but not limited to Shopify fee, has been settled/offset via deduction at your Credit Balance.
Where you have selected Auto-Renew your Standard Membership, then Billplz will deduct the amount of the Membership Fee and/or Activation Fees (if applicable) from your Credit Balance two (2) days before the expiry of the Subscription Period.

The fee deducted from your Credit Balance for subscribing to Standard Membership is non-refundable.
FPX Transactions conducted and FPX Transaction Fee deducted/incurred are non-reversible and non- refundable, respectively.

For FPX Own ID Payment Method, each transaction amount shall be subjected to real-time payout to your bank account.
For other Payment Methods, your Payout will be deposited into your bank account based on the applicable Financial Institution’s payout period.
