WaCommunicate Billing and Accounts

Anyone operating in the property market space specifically Property/Facility Managers, can create a WaCommunicate account to create digitally safe geolocation dependent social networks for their buildings and to handle their soft FM administration.

Accounts

Each WaCommunicate “Account” is unique and is determined by a combination of email and mobile phone number that must correspond to a natural person. An Account permits access to the digital bundle of services entailing the WaCommunicate Application. An Account must therefore be private to a person. A WaCommunicate Account is the exclusive reference node, Walulel uses, to enable access to WaCommunicate services (the “Communication/ Soft Facility Management Services”), referred to below.

Although each Account represents a dedicated virtual namespace, which any user of WaCommunicate can think of as their personal workspace.

An Account is the place that a WaCommunicate paying user (the “Account Holder”) must use to view board posts and reported issues, create tasks and assign them to in-house/3rd-party artisans, request and view sentiment reports and generally communicate and share information while keeping up to date on what is happening within their property with all the features provided. The Gratis user can view and post in board channels, view and redeem offers, view key documents, report issues and make their voices heard within the corridors of power.

In order to obtain a valid Gratis/Paying Account an Account Holder user must agree to be bound by and adhere to, the (1) Terms & Conditions; (2) Acceptable Use Policy; (3) Privacy Policy; (4) Cookie Policy; (5) Community Participation Policy and (5) Licensing Terms as found at Walulel’s website’s legal section. Such consent is deemed by signing-up to WaCommunicate and providing the personal information required.

Account Subscriptions, Packages & Billing

The “Subscription” associated with an Account is how Account Holders pay for WaCommunicate. An Account Holder will only need a subscription if signed up for one of WaCommunicate’s paid packages. An Account Holder can choose between a monthly or annual subscription. Subscriptions auto-renew, but An Account Holder can cancel at any time. Any cancellation will be enacted at the end of the subscription period applicable to the Package purchased.

An Account Holder must select a “Package” as part of a subscription. The Package lets Walulel know how much to charge the Account Holder each billing period. WaCommunicate currently has four paid packages: (1) Hamlet; (2) Town; (3) City; (4) Metropolis. Each plan has a unique allocation quota, specifying the number of Summary Requests, Boards, Admins, Number of Apartments and the Consultation Duration hours.

An Account Holder subscribed to a Plan will be billed in accordance with the general process made clear at the time of subscription. The billing details, billing date, and billing conventions in respect of an Account Holder subscribed to a Package, can be found within the “Package” area of the WaCommunicate application, where an Account Holder subscribed to a Package can also view and manage their allocations, billing details, personal details and invoices. The user can also subscribe to the ‘Top Up Plan’ to to up their Summary Requests/Sentiments.

It is worth noting that all invoices in respect of WaCommunicate are ultimately £GBP. Invoices are currently payable in other currencies but will be settled in £GBP or the alternative currency equivalent at the rates determined by the payment provider.

Refunds and return policies are not required by law for software services such as those provided to Account Holders. All payment obligations are non-cancellable and all amounts paid are non-refundable.
