If a sale requires currency conversion into your Balance Currency, Paddle will convert the amount at the mid-market rate provided by Open Exchange Rates at the time the payment is received from the Buyer plus a foreign exchange margin of 2% for major currencies (USD / EUR / GBP), 2.5% for CZK and DKK and 3% for all other currencies.
9.2 The number and value to the Supplier of confirmed sales will be provided to the Supplier via the Supplier Dashboard (shown as a balance on your Supplier Account). Provided the Account Balance is above $100, €100 or £100 (or some higher amount as agreed between you and Paddle) the Account Balance less any sums due to Paddle under these Terms of Use, will be paid to you on or before the 15th of the following month provided that you have provided Paddle with all relevant information required to process a payment to you.

We are not responsible for any charges associated with the making of transfers via international bank transfer or through PayPal. A charge of $15 will be made for each international bank transfer (€15 if your Balance Currency is EUR or £15 if your Balance Currency is GBP). If you opt to receive payment in a currency different to the Balance Currency, then we reserve the right to charge a conversion margin of up to 1.5%, for the avoidance of doubt this will not be reflected in the Paddle Margin which is presented in your Balance Currency. We will go to all reasonable efforts to ensure no additional fees are charged during withdrawal, but are not responsible for any charges that do occur.
9.5 If Paddle is required to refund a Buyer (including through Chargebacks), Paddle is entitled to receive from you the amount of the refund or Chargeback as well as any charges and fees incurred as a result of a Chargeback up to 20 GBP, USD or EUR depending on the Transaction Currency (If the Transaction Currency is any other currency, this will be based on the Supplier's Balance Currency). Paddle reserves the right to suspend all Services until the deficit is paid by you.
9.6 Where any credit requires to be provided to a Invoiced Business or Invoiced Consumer due to service level or similar failures in the provision of the Product by you, no credit will be given to you for any previously applied Paddle Discount and the Paddle Discount will be applied to the gross amount of any amounts invoiced prior to deduction of any service level or similar credit.
10. Set Off
10.1 Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies we may have, the Supplier hereby authorises us to set-off by whatever means the whole or any part of the Supplier's liability to us under these Terms of Use against any funds, sums or other amounts owing to, the Supplier under these Terms of Use including but not limited to:

If the liability to be set off is expressed in different currencies, we may convert such liability at a market rate of exchange for the purpose of set-off. In the event such set-off does not fully reimburse us for the liability owed, the Supplier shall immediately pay us a sum equal to any shortfall.

Further, Paddle does not make, and has not made, any representation or warranty that the services are accurate, complete, reliable, current, error-free, or virus-free or that the operation of the services will be uninterrupted.

14. Waiver and Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Use is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavour to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Use remain in full force and effect. Paddle's acquiescence in the breach of a provision of these Terms of Use or failure to act upon such breach does not waive Paddle's right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.
