    3. Pooled Account; Sufficiency of Funds. In order to use certain aspects of the Service (such as the facilitation of payments to payees), you are required to transfer funds to an account designated by us at a Service Provider, in an amount and manner specified by us (which may include ACH transfer, wire transfer, direct debit from your bank account, or another method). You will at all times ensure that such funds are sufficient to fund all payment transactions that you submit to the Service. Such funds are held on your behalf and we do not take title to such funds.

This amount will be as determined by us in our sole discretion based on our own risk assessment, which assessment may take into account factors such as your business model, operating history, credit and payment history, and prior transactions facilitated through the Service. You will not receive interest or any other earnings on any such funds. As consideration for the provision of the Service pursuant hereto, you irrevocably assign to us all rights in and to any such interest and other earnings. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, you grant us a security interest in all funds held in the Reserve, and authorize us to make withdrawals from the Reserve to satisfy your obligations under these Terms.
