FEES
Some notes about GridLite service subscriptions:
Until you cancel a subscription by going to the subscription page of the app, choosing “Modify Subscription”, and pressing “Unsubscribe”, it will automatically renew at the end of each subscription term at the same fee (even if you are not using the GridLite portal).
Monthly GridLite service subscriptions may not be transferred to another meter or subscriber.
Although we strive to make the GridLite service available as much as possible, there may be periods of downtime (for example, for scheduled maintenance, software updates, or events outside of our reasonable control).
PAYMENT TERMS
When you provide credit card information to us, you represent that you are the authorized user of the card, and agree to notify us of any changes to the relevant account number, expiration date, and billing address, or if the card expires or is canceled. You agree that we may receive updated credit card information (such as a new expiration date) from your credit card issuer.
We will charge your credit card on each billing date for your GridLite service subscription. You are responsible for reviewing your credit card statement for billing accuracy.
Unless notified by GridLite, your service subscription will automatically renew at the end of each subscription term at the same fee, and you authorize us to automatically charge the subscription fee to your credit card each billing date until you cancel your subscription 30 days prior to auto-renewal. Subscription fees paid prior to cancellation are nonrefundable.
Some notes about payments:
By subscribing to the GridLite service, you authorize us to charge the applicable subscription fees (and any other applicable fees, such as an early termination fee) to your credit card on file.
If your credit card reaches its expiration date and you have not updated your payment information with us or cancelled your account, you authorize us to continue billing your credit card and you will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts.
Each charge on the applicable billing date applies to the subscription period immediately following the billing date (so a charge for a monthly subscription in January is for the GridLite service in the month of February).
All prices on GridLite are listed in U.S. Dollars.
We reserve the right to increase the monthly subscription fee for GridLite service subscribers paying month-to-month with no commitment, but we will notify you 30 days in advance. If you do not accept the new fees, you should terminate your subscription before the new fees go into effect.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your subscription to the service without notice if your credit card is rejected or if your card issuer seeks the return of payments previously made to us. You agree to pay (1) any outstanding balance in full within 30 days of cancellation of your subscription, and (2) a late charge on all amounts more than 30 days past due. Such rights are in addition to and not in lieu of any other legal right or remedies available to GridLite.
We also reserve the right to refer your account to a third party for collection to pursue unpaid amounts, and you will remain liable to us for all unpaid charges and all the costs we incur to collect those charges (such as collection agency fees).

Bill Splitting
When using the electric bill splitting feature on GridLite, we will automatically pay your electric bill after all payment members have paid their portion, and if the balance on the bill is not zero at the time of paying. In the event where one or more payment members fail to pay, or the bill has already been paid outside of GridLite, a refund will be issued to all users that have completed their payments. The processing fee is non-refundable on any payments that have been made. GridLite will only pay the amount that is posted for the selected meter. If you have additional meters on your electric utility account not included in the bill split program, you will still be responsible for paying these outside of GridLite. GridLite is not responsible for any late penalties or fees that may arise from a bill not being paid on time.
In the event of a payment failure, GridLite will notify all payment members listed on the meter via email.
When utilizing GridLite’s electric bill splitting feature, Members should be aware that GridLite is not a tax advisory service. While GridLite facilitates the allocation of utility expenses between personal and business use, we do not guarantee the accuracy or applicability of these allocations for tax purposes. Members are responsible for ensuring that their usage percentage and subsequent financial claims comply with IRS regulations and other tax laws. Lunabit Technologies LLC disclaims any liability for the tax implications or benefits obtained by using GridLite for home-business utility bill splitting. Members are encouraged to consult with a qualified tax professional to understand and benefit from potential tax deductions related to home-business expenses.
