After a Completed Sale occurs Hempistani credits the net proceeds from the sale to your account.

We process payments to sellers within 7 days of delivery confirmation or 14 days of order placement, whichever later. The sellers can, however, choose to get paid on a monthly or weekly basis based on their needs and orders. The payments are processed on Mondays & Thursdays of each week. The funds in your Account will be automatically transferred to your designated checking account for Completed Sales. To receive funds, you must provide bank account information for an account registered under your name.

As a security measure, Hempistani may, but is not required to, impose transaction limits on some or all sellers relating to the value of any transaction, disbursement or adjustment, the cumulative value of all transactions, disbursements or adjustments during a period of time, or the number of transactions per day or other period of time.

If Hempistani reasonably concludes based on information available to us that seller’s actions and/or performance in connection with the Site may result in buyer disputes, chargebacks or other claims, then we may, in our sole discretion, delay initiating any remittances and withhold any payments to be made or that are otherwise due to you in connection with this marketplace agreement for the shorter of: (a) a period of 90 days following the initial date of suspension; or (b) completion of any investigation(s) regarding any seller actions and/or performance in connection with this marketplace agreement.

Hempistani is not responsible for determining when tax should be charged.

Hempistani may obtain reimbursement of any amounts owed by the seller to Hempistani by deducting from future payments owed to the seller, reversing any credits to the Account, debiting the seller’s bank account, charging the seller’s credit card, or seeking such reimbursement from the seller by any other lawful means.
