By using the Card, you agree to the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, do not use the card. You agree to sign the back of the Card immediately upon receipt. You should always keep a record of your Card number and the customer service phone number provided herein in case of loss or theft of your Card. We will not be able to assist you if your Card is lost or stolen unless you have your Card number. If you would like to cancel, call Customer Service at (888) 294-7376.
NOTE: THIS AGREEMENT REQUIRES CERTAIN DISPUTES TO BE RESOLVED BY WAY OF BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN BY JURY TRIAL. THE TERMS OF THE ARBITRATION CLAUSE APPEAR AT THE END OF THIS AGREEMENT.
Definitions. In this Agreement, the words “you” and “your” mean the Cardholder. “Bank,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean Patriot Bank, N.A., the issuer of the Card, or anyone to whom we assign our rights. “Card” means the network branded card that is issued to you by us. “PIN” means personal identification number. “Card Account” means the individual prepaid account associated with a Card.
Identification. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities,federal law requires us to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who registers a Card. When you request or agree to register a Card, you authorize the party giving you the Card to provide us with your name, address, date of birth and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your government-issued identification or other identifying documents and may use resources such as credit bureaus or other means to verify your identity information.
Card Description. The Card is a prepaid payroll card and is connected to a Card Account. The Card is not a credit card or a gift card, and using the Card will not affect your credit history. Neither the Card nor the Card Account constitutes a checking or savings account. The Card can be loaded with a specific amount of U.S. dollars by your employer. Only your employer is authorized to load money onto your card. You will not receive any interest on your funds in the Card Account. You may not resell, gift, or transfer the Card. From time to time, we may issue a new Card associated with the Card Account for Card loss, Card theft, convenience, or circumstances in which the security of the Card Account or your access to the Card Account is compromised. The Card will remain the property of Patriot Bank, N.A. and must be surrendered upon demand. The Card is nontransferable and may be canceled or revoked at any time without prior notice except as required by law. You are responsible for all transactions initiated and fees incurred by use of your Card. If you permit another person to have access to your Card or Card number, we will treat this as if you have authorized such use and you will be liable for all transactions incurred by those persons. You may not request an additional Card for another person. You do not have to accept this payroll card and may receive your wages from your employer using other methods.
Full Wage Access. The Card provides access to your full salary each pay period. You may withdraw the entire balance of your most recent salary payment at no charge from a teller at any bank that accepts MasterCard® debit cards. There are no fees or discounts for over-the-counter bank teller withdrawals at banks that accept MasterCard® debit cards.
Activating Your Card. Your Card cannot be used until it has been activated. You can activate the card by using the Seso Labor mobile application or by going to https://worker.sesolabor.com. Follow the prompts to activate your card and assign a unique 4-digit PIN number. You will be required to input your PIN in order to access cash at ATMs and to purchase goods or services at some point-of-sale terminals. You agree that you will not use your birth year as your PIN, that you will change your PIN at least every six months, and that you will not disclose your PIN to others.
Using Your Card. If you do not want to use the Card and your money has been loaded onto the Card, you can request a check or alternative disbursement method listed in the fee table. You may use your Card to purchase goods and services anywhere MasterCard® debit cards are accepted and to access cash at ATMs of financial institutions displaying the MasterCard®, Plus®, or Interlink® name and/or logo. Each time the Card is used to purchase goods or services or to withdraw cash at ATMs, you authorize us to charge that amount (and any applicable fees) against your Card’s available balance. Activity fees will not be assessed to the card until the card has been activated. However, an inactivity fee may be charged to the card according to the fee schedule after the applicable dormancy period, even if the card has not been activated. If the card is activated after an inactivity fee has been assessed, and prior to funds being escheated to the applicable regulatory authority, you can request the inactivity fees be credited back to the card by calling (888) 294-7376.
Limitations. Subject to your available balance and if your program allows ATM transactions, you may use your Card to make withdrawals at ATMs and purchase goods or services up to the amount of $2,500 per day for purchases and $500 per day at ATMs. You may not conduct more than two (2) ATM or twelve (12) purchase transactions on any single day. For security reasons, there may be times when we further limit these amounts. You may not use your Card for any unlawful purpose or to conduct internet gambling transactions. The maximum amount that can be loaded to the Card is $9,999 and the maximum balance amount in the account is $9,999. There is no credit card, credit line, overdraft protection, or deposit account associated with your Card. Your Card is not transferable and may only be used by you.
Card Balance. Each time you use your Card, you authorize us to reduce the value available on your Card by the amount of the transaction and any applicable fees, taxes, or other charges assessed by the merchant. Transactions that exceed the remaining balance on your Card are prohibited and should be declined at the point of sale. If, notwithstanding an insufficient balance, an authorization is received by the merchant or the merchant uses other means to proceed with the transaction, then you agree to reimburse us for any amount in excess of the Card balance for such a transaction. You can obtain information about the current available balance on your Card and a description of recent transactions by calling Customer Service at (888) 294-7376, logging into the Seso Labor mobile application, visiting https://worker.sesolabor.com, or by sending a written request to 548 Market Street, PMB 40370, San Francisco, CA 94104.
ATM Receipts. You agree to retain your receipt whenever you make a withdrawal with your Card using any ATM.
FDIC Insurance. Patriot Bank, N.A. is a Member, FDIC. The money credited to your Card will be held in a custodial account at Patriot Bank. Funds in the custodial account are insured by the FDIC to its maximum limits.
Unclaimed Property. We may transfer (escheat) your Card balance to the appropriate state if no activity occurs in the Card and you fail to communicate with us regarding your Card within the time period specified by state law. If funds are transferred to the state, you may file a claim with the state to recover the funds.
Cancellation and Suspension. We may cancel or suspend Card privileges without cause or prior notice, except as otherwise required by law. We may refuse to process any transaction that we believe may violate the terms of this Agreement or may be unauthorized. You may cancel your Card by calling Customer Service at (888) 294-7376. We will attempt to notify you if we decide to cancel or suspend your use of the Card. You agree not to use or allow others to use an expired, canceled, suspended or otherwise invalid Card. Our cancellation or suspension of Card privileges will not otherwise affect your rights and obligations under this Agreement. If we cancel or suspend your Card privileges through no fault of yours, you will be entitled to a refund of the remaining balance without charge.
Card Expiration. Subject to applicable law, you may use the Card only through its expiration date. The expiration date is shown on the back of your Card. If you attempt to use the Card after the expiration date, the transactions may not be processed. Although the Card expires, the underlying funds do not expire. If there is a balance remaining on the Card at the time of its expiration, you may request a replacement Card by calling Customer Service at (888) 294-7376. Otherwise, we will either send you a replacement Card or refund the balance remaining on the Card to you, less any amounts owed to us. The replacement Card or a check for the Card balance may be mailed to you at the latest postal address reflected in our records. Please refer to the fee table for fees related to the replacement of your Card.
Privacy. We may release information about you, your Card, and the transactions you perform to third parties: where it is necessary or helpful in verifying or completing a transaction; to disclose the existence, history, and condition of your Card to consumer reporting agencies; when you give us your consent; to comply with the law or a court or governmental order; to local, state and federal authorities if we believe a crime may have been committed involving your Card; and as permitted by law. Please see our Privacy Policy at https://www.sesolabor.com/legal/privacy-policy for further information. Although no credit history is required to obtain a Card, you authorize us to obtain information about you from time to time from credit reporting agencies and other third parties to assist us in verifying your identity, to prevent fraud, and investigate potential misuse of the Card.
In Case of Errors or Questions About Card Transactions (Regulation E). Call us at (888) 294-7376, or write to Customer Service at 548 Market Street, PMB 40370, San Francisco, CA 94104 as soon as you can if you think your balance or transaction information is wrong or if you need more information about a transaction. We must allow you to report an error until 60 days after the earlier of the date you electronically access your account, if the error could be viewed in your electronic history, or the date we sent FIRST written history on which the error appeared. You may request a written history of your transactions at any time by calling us at (888) 294-7376. When notifying us: (1) Tell us your name and Card number; (2) Describe the error or the transaction you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more information; (3) Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error. In addition, for errors involving your Card, it would be helpful if you provided us with any supporting documentation related to the error. If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days. We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, and your account is registered with us, we will credit the Card within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete the investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account. For errors involving new Cards (i.e., Cards issued within the previous 30 days), point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new Cards, we may take up to 20 business days to credit your Card for the amount you think is in error. We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
Notice of Lost or Stolen Cards or Unauthorized Activity and Your Liability. You agree to notify us immediately of any loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure of any PIN or code that might be used to access Card funds. You also agree to notify us immediately if your Card has been lost or stolen. You could lose all the money loaded on your Card. If you tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Card or PIN, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your Card or PIN without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Card or PIN, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your Card or PIN without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500. Also, if you become aware of or otherwise suspect transactions that you did not make, including those made by Card, PIN, or other means, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the transaction is first made available by visiting the website on the back of your card or by using your Mobile App, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods. You agree to cooperate reasonably with us in our attempts to recover funds from, and to assist in the prosecution of, any unauthorized users of your Card. If you allow another person to use the Card, you agree to be responsible for all transactions conducted by that person, even if the transactions exceed the amounts or use authorized by you. If you believe your Card or PIN has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from the Card without authorization, call Customer Service at (888) 294-7376.
Merchant Authorization Holds. When you use your Card to pay for goods or services, certain merchants may ask us to authorize the transaction in advance and may estimate its final value. Merchants should disclose to you the amount of the hold prior to initiating it. When we authorize the transaction, we commit to make the requested funds available when the transaction finally settles and may place a temporary hold on the funds in your Card Account in the amount indicated by the merchant (which may be more than the final settled transaction amount). We also may add an amount for certain merchants to ensure that sufficient funds will be available to cover the final transaction. Transactions at certain merchants that authorize high dollar amounts, especially rental car companies and hotels, may cause an “authorization” or “hold” on your available balance for up to thirty (30) days. Until the transaction finally settles, or we determine that it is unlikely to be processed, the funds subject to the hold will not be available to you for other purposes. We will only charge your Card Account for the correct amount of the final transaction, and we will release the hold on any excess amount when the transaction finally settles. Your
Obligation for Overdrafts. There is no overdraft/credit feature associated with this card. You agree not to conduct transactions which would cause your Card balance to become overdrawn. If a merchant attempts to process a transaction for more than your Card’s available balance, the transaction may be declined. If you conduct transactions in an amount that exceeds the balance on your Card, you agree to pay us the overdrawn amount immediately, without further demand.
Negative Balance. Because you may be assessed transaction fees even if a transaction is declined, it is possible for a rejected transaction to cause your Card Account to have a negative account balance and be overdrawn. It is also possible to have a negative account balance. We may deduct any negative balance amounts from any current or future funds on this or any other Card Account you maintain with us. If your Card Account has a zero or negative balance, we may, at our option, cancel your Card Account and any Cards associated with your Card Account without notice, and/or pursue collection of any negative account balance plus all costs of collection including attorney fees.
Our Liability for Failing to Make Transfers or Complete Transactions. If we do not complete a transaction to or from the Card on time or in the correct amount according to this Agreement, we may be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance: (a) if your Card funds are insufficient for the transaction or are unavailable for withdrawal (e.g., because they are subject to a hold or legal process); (b) if a computer system, ATM, or POS terminal was not working properly and you knew about the problem when you started the transaction; (c) if a merchant refuses to honor the Card; (d) if circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, terrorist attack or national emergency) prevent the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken; (e) if we refuse a transaction because the Card has been reported as lost or stolen, has been suspended by us, or we have reason to believe the transaction is not authorized by you; or (f) as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Direct Deposits. Speak to your employer to enroll in direct deposits. Only your employer may make direct deposits to your Card. If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your Card at least once every 60 days, the employer making the payment should tell you every time they send the direct deposit to your Card. Funds from direct deposits will generally be available on the day the Bank receives the transfer. In case of transmission error, or transfer irregularity, your ability to withdraw funds may be delayed. If this occurs, then funds will generally be available within five business days after the transfer. We reserve the right to reject or limit transfers via direct deposit in our sole discretion and may reject or suspend any direct deposit that has identifying information that does not match the identifying information (such as name or Social Security Number) that we have on file for you.
Warning regarding unverified prepaid accounts. If your Card is not activated, it is important to activate your Card as soon as possible. Until you activate your account to verify your identity, we are not required to research or resolve any errors regarding your account. As such, protect your Card as you would your cash. We will not reimburse you for any unauthorized transactions which occur prior to the time you notify us of the unauthorized activity or that your Card or PIN has been lost or stolen.
Disclaimer of Warranties. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND TO YOU, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE CARD OR RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Limited Liability. UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR: DELAYS OR MISTAKES RESULTING FROM ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION: ACTS OF GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES, NATIONAL EMERGENCIES, INSURRECTION, WAR, OR RIOTS; THE FAILURE OF MERCHANTS TO HONOR YOUR CARD; THE FAILURE OF MERCHANTS TO PERFORM OR PROVIDE SERVICES; COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FAILURES; OR FAILURES OR MALFUNCTIONS ATTRIBUTABLE TO YOUR EQUIPMENT, ANY INTERNET SERVICE, OR ANY PAYMENT SYSTEM. IN THE EVENT THAT WE ARE HELD LIABLE TO YOU, YOU WILL ONLY BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER YOUR ACTUAL DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL YOU BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR SPECIAL DAMAGES (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF YOU HAVE ADVISED US OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT BE EFFECTIVE TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT YOUR RECOVERY FOR ANY ALLEGED NEGLIGENCE OR MISCONDUCT BY THE BANK OR OUR SERVICE PROVIDERS SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE TOTAL AMOUNT LOADED ON THE CARD.
Our Business Days. Our business days are Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays. Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays are not considered business days, even if we are open.
Notices. We may send notices to you at the last postal or e-mail address reflected for you in our Card records or by otherwise making the information available to you. If your e-mail or postal address changes, you agree to notify Customer Service immediately. Failure to do so may result in Card information being mailed to the wrong person or your transactions being declined. You agree to provide notices to us by calling us at (888) 294-7376 or writing us at: 548 Market Street, PMB 40370, San Francisco, CA 94104
Information Given to Third-Party Service Providers. We may engage a third party to assist us in administering, supporting, and/or marketing the Card program and otherwise performing our obligations under this Agreement. We may also collect and disclose information (including personally identifiable information) to third parties about you, your Card and the transactions related to your Card (“Cardholder Information"). The types of information we may collect includes: (i) Information about purchases made with the Card, such as date of purchase, amount and place of purchase; (ii) Information you provide to us when you apply for a Card or for replacement Cards, when you register your card, or when you contact us with customer service issues, such as name, address, and phone number; (iii) Information about you provided to us by the Provider when they request us to provide a Card to you, such as your name and address.

When you are no longer our customer, we continue to share your information as described in this notice. Only those persons who need it to perform their job responsibilities are authorized to have access to Cardholder information, and we have security measures that comply with federal regulations to safeguard Cardholder Information.
Delay of Rights. We can waive or delay enforcement of any of our rights under this Agreement without losing them.
No Assignment by You. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any of your rights or obligations under this Agreement. Any attempt to the contrary (such as the grant of a security interest) shall be null and void. This Agreement shall be binding on you, your executors, administrators, and any permitted assigns.
Invalidity. If any term of this Agreement is determined to be invalid under applicable law, the remaining terms shall continue in effect as if the invalid term had not been included.
Change in Terms. Subject to the limitations of applicable law, we may at any time add to, delete, or change the terms of this Agreement by sending you a notice via the mobile app, e-mail, or by mail to the address we have for you. We will not change the fees or terms and conditions of expiration without at least twenty- one (21) days notice to you. Advance notice may not be given, however, if we need to make the change immediately in order to maintain or restore the security of the Card or any related payment system.
Governing Law/Jurisdiction. All matters, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, relating to the validity, construction, interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement shall be determined by the laws of the United States and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of Georgia. You consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Atlanta, Georgia in all controversies arising out of or in connection with your use of the Card and this Agreement.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement between you and us, whether written or oral, with respect to its subject matter and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements with respect to its subject matter.
Survival. This arbitration provision shall survive: (1) cancellation, payment, charge-off, or assignment of this Agreement; (2) the bankruptcy of any party; and (3) any transfer, sale, or assignment of this Agreement, or any amounts owed under this Agreement, to any other person or entity.
Your Representations and Warranties. You represent and warrant to us that: (i) you are a U.S. citizen or legal alien residing in one of the 50 states or the District of Columbia; (ii) the personal information that you provide to us in connection with the Card is true, correct and complete; (iii) you reviewed this Agreement and agree to its terms; (iv) you accept the Card; and (iv) you will not use the Card to purchase illegal goods or services or to violate any law.
Arbitration of Disputes. Except as expressly provided below, any controversy that arises out of or is related to (a) the Card, (b) any service relating to the Card, or (c) this Agreement, whether based on statute, contract, tort or any other legal theory, in which the aggregate amount in controversy for all claimants exceeds $15,000, including interest and attorneys’ fees, (any “Claim”) will be settled on an individual basis by binding arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any dispute regarding whether a particular controversy is subject to arbitration will be decided by the arbitrator(s). If any part of the damages or other relief requested is not expressly stated as a dollar amount, the controversy will be a Claim that is subject to arbitration. You and Bank acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by use of the Card, and any controversy that may arise under or relate to the Card, Card services, or this Agreement involve “commerce” as that term is defined and used in the FAA. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules”). We will tell you how to contact the AAA and how to get a copy of the Arbitration Rules without cost if you ask us in writing to do so. The Arbitration Rules permit you to request deferral or reduction of the administrative fees of arbitration if paying them would cause you a hardship. Any in-person arbitration hearing will be held in the metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia area. It is within the arbitrator’s discretion to order the arbitration to take place by telephone. Each arbitrator shall be a licensed attorney who has been engaged in the private practice of law continuously during the 10 years immediately preceding the arbitration or a retired judge of a court of general or appellate jurisdiction. The arbitration award shall award only such relief as a court of competent jurisdiction could properly award under applicable law, including attorneys’ fees if allowed by applicable law or agreement, and may award to the prevailing party all pre- and post-award expenses of arbitration. All statutes of limitation, defenses, and attorney-client and other privileges that would apply in a court proceeding will apply in the arbitration. The filing of a demand for arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration Rules will be deemed the commencement of an action for purposes of any applicable statute of limitations. There will be no class Claims—Claims by or on behalf of other persons will not be considered in or consolidated with the arbitration proceedings between you and Bank. The Agreement does not limit the right of you or us, whether before, during or after the arbitration proceeding, to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies or injunctive or other traditionally equitable relief (other than a stay of arbitration) necessary to protect the rights or property of the party seeking relief pending the arbitrator’s determination of the merits of the Claim or the Bank’s exercise of self-help remedies, such as the right of set-off. The taking of any of the actions described in the preceding sentence by either party or the filing of a court action by a party shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to demand arbitration of any Claim asserted as a counterclaim or the like in response to any such action. This arbitration provision will survive the termination of your relationship with Bank, whether evidenced by this Agreement or otherwise. You understand, acknowledge and agree that: you have read carefully this provision in which you and Bank have agreed to arbitrate disputes; this provision limits or waives certain of your rights, including the right to bring a court action and to have a jury trial; there will be no class claims in arbitration; discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in a court proceeding; the right and grounds to appeal from an arbitrator’s award are more limited than in an appeal from a court judgment; and certain other rights you have in a court proceeding also may not be available in arbitration.
Merchant Refunds and Disputes. Depending on the merchant, any refund for goods or services purchased with the Card may be made in the form of a credit to the Card. You are not entitled to receive a cash refund. We are not responsible for the delivery, quality, safety, legality or any other aspect of goods and services that you purchase from others with a Card. All such disputes should be addressed to the merchants from whom the goods and services were purchased.
Foreign Transactions. If you conduct a transaction in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the merchant, network or card association that processes the transaction may convert any related debit into U.S. dollars in accordance with its then current policies. MasterCard currently uses a conversion rate that is either: (a) selected from a range of rates available in the wholesale currency markets on or one day prior to its central or transaction processing date (note: this rate may be different from the rate the association itself receives), or (b) the government-mandated rate. The conversion rate may be different from the rate in effect on the date of your transaction and the date it is posted to your Card. We may impose a charge on the transaction amount (including reversals) for each transaction that you conduct outside the United States or in a foreign currency. This charge is in addition to any applicable ATM fee. See Fees and Charges section.
Fees and Charges. We will charge you, and you agree to pay the fees and charges set forth in the fee schedule. We normally deduct fees and charges automatically from the Card balance at the time a fee or charge is incurred.
Questions. If you have questions regarding your Card, you may call us at (888) 294-7376 or write to 548 Market Street, PMB 40370, San Francisco, CA 94104. When you use your Card to initiate a transaction at certain merchants (e.g., gas stations, hotels, restaurants, and car rentals), the merchant may request confirmation of the Card’s validity and authorization for the transaction. Note: The amount may be estimated by the merchant and may include a gratuity. You agree that we may place a temporary hold on your Card balance for the estimated amount, even if it exceeds the amount of your ultimate transaction. Any excess will be released later after the transaction is finally settled through the system.
