Please consult your most recently signed Final Exhibit B for specifics on the settlement period for your Actum Processing account.

In some cases, if a Gross Settlement occurs on the same day that at least one transaction is submitted and the Actum Processing account is set to daily billing, Processing Fees may be deducted and considered for the Payout Amount.

Notables
- • Processing Fees consist of fees per your Exhibit B (per debit transaction fee, discount rate, if applicable, etc.). Likewise, a breakdown of the processing fees is available in our Transaction Fee report found by clicking on Charges and Fees in the Reports menu option. Additionally, late Returns will typically be a chargeback filed by a customer/receiver. Specific information about the chargeback can be found in our Return Report. This can be found by clicking on Returns within the Reports menu option.
- • The payout amount represents the anticipated payout for deposit or fee charged against an upcoming settlement. In this case, if there is a negative carryover amount from Processing Fees but the settlement dollar amount is greater than the negative carryover dollar amount, then you will see a positive payout. Otherwise, if the negative carryover amount is greater than the settlement dollar amount, the negative carryover amount continues to carryover.
