Owner Terms of Use

1. Overview

Welcome to Kolmeo’s Owner Terms of Use! We can’t wait to help you with your rental property.

We’ve tried to make this document as concise as possible. However, there are some things that work differently on Kolmeo, including the way money is managed when you pay rent or bills. For this reason, please take the time to read these Terms of Use carefully as it is possible some of this will be new to you.

Kolmeo is an end-to-end property management platform that your real estate agency uses to manage the property you own, including collecting rent and other payments.

The navigation menu located on the side allows you to go to relevant sections simply by clicking the menu heading. These Terms of Use are structured as follows:

  • Clauses 1 to 19: terms and conditions and definitions of capitalised words used throughout these Terms of Use.
  • Annexure A: terms and conditions of Kolmeo’s Payment Gateway Provider, Assembly Payments Platform Pty Ltd (now Zai Australia Pty Ltd) that we are required to include in our Terms of Use.
  • Annexure B: a table outlining all Fees.

When we say you or your in these Terms of Use, we are referring both to you and any entity you are authorised to represent. When we say Kolmeo, we, our or us, we are referring to Kolmeo Pty Ltd ACN 132 055 648.

Transactions

The Kolmeo Software does not handle any Funds transfers between you and any other party (Transactions). All Transactions are handled by the Payment Gateway Provider and processed via their separate Payment Gateway.

You agree that once a Transaction is initiated by you, the money may, to the extent permitted by law, be applied by the recipient at their absolute discretion including by directing Funds to Agents or to suppliers for property maintenance services and other costs.

Undeliverable Funds

You acknowledge that all or part of the money to be transferred as part of a Transaction may not be able to be paid into the bank account of an intended recipient by the Payment Gateway Provider (Undeliverable Funds).

In that event, you authorise the transfer of any Undeliverable Funds to the relevant Owner's Agent, and you authorise the relevant Owner's Agent to then disburse those Undeliverable Funds to the intended recipients. If any Undeliverable Funds cannot be transferred to the intended recipients, you authorise the return of those Undeliverable Funds to the payer who initiated the Transaction.

Payment Gateway Provider

You agree that Kolmeo does not represent the Payment Gateway Provider and, beyond engaging the Payment Gateway Provider, Kolmeo cannot influence or control any Transaction initiated by you.

Your use of the Payment Gateway for any Transaction is subject to the relevant Payment Gateway Provider’s terms of use available here Zai End User Agreement Dec 2019 (hellozai.com) (Payment Gateway User Agreement) and annexed to these Terms of Use. Further, your transmission of data or money via the Payment Gateway is entirely at your own risk.

It is your obligation to provide the Payment Gateway Provider and its service providers, directly or through us, with all necessary information and authorisations to enable the Payment Gateway Provider and its service providers to accept payments from you and meet their obligations and exercise their rights under the rules of any payment system, including BPAY Payments, the electronic payments service promoted and operated by BPAY Pty Limited ACN 079 137 518.

If there is any inconsistency between these Terms of Use, the agreement for platform services entered into by us and the Payment Gateway Provider (Platform Services Agreement) and/or the Payment Gateway User Agreement, the terms will be given priority in interpretation and application as follows to the extent of the inconsistency: the Platform Services Agreement; these Terms of Use; and then the Payment Gateway User Agreement.

To the extent permitted by law, we will not be liable to you for:

  • any incomplete Transaction resulting from: limits on the bank account, credit card or debit card of a party to the Transaction imposed by the party's financial institution or law; or failure by a financial institution to honour any credit or debit to or from any bank account, credit card or debit card;
  • any act, omission, fraud or crime of any third party, including where such act, omission, fraud or crime results in a breach of these Terms of Use by us;

  • websites and feeds which the Kolmeo Software links to, including Liability for any infringement of third party Intellectual Property Rights arising from them.

You acknowledge that that the Payment Gateway Provider and/or any of its service providers may delay or refuse to process a Transaction in certain circumstances, including where the Payment Gateway Provider and/or any of its service providers:

  • special, indirect, consequential, incidental, circumstantial, punitive or exemplary damages or Losses; or
