GotSOL Terms of Service

Effective Date: September 20, 2025

No Affiliation with Solana Foundation

GotSOL, LLC does not represent, speak for, or have any affiliation, partnership, sponsorship, endorsement, or other relationship with the Solana Foundation or the Solana protocol. References to Solana describe the public blockchain network on which the Service operates and do not imply any connection to, or approval by, the Solana Foundation.

Technology Service Provider — Not a Financial Intermediary

GotSOL (including any GotSOLPay branding) is a technology service provider. We provide software tools that enable merchants to accept stablecoin payments and manage related business operations. GotSOL is not a financial intermediary, financial institution, bank, money transmitter, payment processor, money services business, or custodian. Where the Service integrates licensed fiat on-ramp or off-ramp partners (for example, providers such as Stripe or MoonPay), any fiat conversion or related transactions occur directly between you (the merchant) and that third-party partner, under that partner's terms. GotSOL does not take custody of fiat currency, does not hold customer funds for transmission, and does not itself provide money transmission services.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using GotSOL ("Service"), operated by GotSOL, LLC ("Company", "we", "us", or "our"), you ("User", "you", or "your") agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.

We may require you to create an account and provide accurate, current, and complete information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities conducted under your account. Misuse, misrepresentation, or unauthorized use of the Service constitutes a material breach of these Terms.

2. Description of Service

GotSOL is a non-custodial technology platform that enables merchants to accept stablecoin (including USDC) payments and provides business tools for digital-asset commerce. We act solely as a software and technology service provider. The Service includes:

  • Merchant payment processing tools
  • Stablecoin payment acceptance
  • Integration with third-party services including Jupiter aggregator and HeroSwap
  • Optional integrations with licensed third-party fiat on-ramp and off-ramp partners
  • Business management tools for cryptocurrency transactions

Nothing in these Terms or the Service creates a bank, broker-dealer, money transmitter, escrow, custodial, or fiduciary relationship between you and GotSOL. You retain full control of your wallets and digital assets, and you are solely responsible for your compliance with applicable laws in your jurisdiction.

We may enhance, update, or modify the Service from time to time to improve functionality, comply with legal obligations, or integrate new technologies. Certain features may require your acceptance of additional terms or policies.

3. Eligibility and Geographic Restrictions

The Service is available to users worldwide. You represent and warrant that:

  • You are at least 18 years old
  • You have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms
  • You are not prohibited from using the Service under applicable law
  • You will not use the Service for any illegal activities

Certain features or services may not be available in all jurisdictions due to regulatory restrictions. It is your responsibility to determine whether your use of the Service complies with local laws and regulations. We reserve the right to restrict or block access to the Service in jurisdictions where use is unlawful.

4. Prohibited Uses

You agree not to use the Service for:

  • Any illegal activities including but not limited to money laundering, terrorist financing, or fraud
  • Trafficking in illegal substances (except where legally permitted in your jurisdiction)
  • Any activity that violates applicable laws or regulations

  • Interfering with the proper functioning of the Service

You also agree not to: (i) reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any aspect of the Service; (ii) use automated systems (e.g., bots, scrapers) to extract data from the Service; (iii) engage in activities that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair our infrastructure; (iv) engage in, facilitate, or attempt to evade sanctions or AML laws, including use of obfuscation services (mixers/tumblers) to conceal source of funds; (v) use the Service from or for the benefit of any sanctioned person or in any comprehensively sanctioned jurisdiction; (vi) interfere with or bypass rate limits or access controls.

5. Non-Custodial Nature and Risk Disclosure

CRITICAL RISK WARNING: GotSOL is a non-custodial service. This means:

  • You maintain full control and custody of your digital assets
  • We do not hold, store, or have access to your private keys or digital assets
  • All transactions are conducted directly on the Solana blockchain
  • You are solely responsible for the security of your wallet and private keys
  • Wallet management is handled by Privy, a third-party wallet service provider
  • We do not control Privy's services and are not responsible for any issues with wallet functionality

CRITICAL SECURITY WARNING – NO PROFESSIONAL AUDITS:

  • Anchor Program: The GotSOL Anchor smart contract program has NOT been professionally or officially audited by third-party security firms
  • Frontend Application: The GotSOL frontend application has NOT been professionally or officially audited for security vulnerabilities
  • Unaudited Code Risk: Using unaudited smart contracts and applications carries significant security risks
  • No Security Guarantees: We make no representations or warranties about the security, safety, or reliability of our unaudited code
  • Use at Your Own Risk: You acknowledge and accept that unaudited code may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or security flaws that could result in loss of funds

You acknowledge and agree that:

  • Digital asset transactions are irreversible
  • Blockchain networks may experience downtime, congestion, or other issues
  • The value of digital assets can fluctuate significantly
  • You may lose some or all of your digital assets
  • Third-party services integrated with GotSOL may experience issues or downtime
  • BLOCKCHAIN TRANSPARENCY RISK: All transactions on public blockchains are permanent, immutable, and publicly visible
  • PHYSICAL SECURITY RISK: Public blockchain records may expose your business activities and financial flows to anyone, potentially increasing physical security risks
  • NO PRIVACY: Your transaction history, business relationships, and financial activities may be visible to competitors, criminals, or other parties
  • PERMANENT RECORDS: Blockchain transactions cannot be deleted, modified, or made private under any circumstances

By using the Service, you acknowledge that cryptocurrency transactions are inherently risky, and you assume all risks related to the use, transfer, or exchange of digital assets. GotSOL does not provide investment, legal, accounting, or tax advice, and you should consult qualified professionals before engaging in digital asset transactions.

6. Physical Security and Privacy Risks

CRITICAL WARNING – PHYSICAL SECURITY RISKS:

By using GotSOL, you acknowledge and accept the following risks:

  • Public Financial Records: All your business transactions, payment flows, and financial activities are permanently recorded on the public Solana blockchain
  • No Privacy: Anyone can view your transaction history, business relationships, customer payments, and financial patterns
  • Physical Security Exposure: Public blockchain records may make you a target for physical theft or robbery; targeted attacks based on visible wealth; competitive intelligence gathering; or criminal targeting based on visible business success
  • Permanent Exposure: These records cannot be deleted, hidden, or made private
  • Global Visibility: Your business activities are visible to anyone worldwide with internet access

You assume full responsibility for these risks and acknowledge that GotSOL, LLC cannot protect you from the consequences of using public blockchain technology. While GotSOL does not sell or monetize your personal data, your use of third-party integrations may be subject to their respective privacy policies. You are encouraged to review those policies carefully. If you require privacy for your business transactions, DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE.

7. Service Availability and Modifications

We reserve the right to:

  • Modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service at any time
  • Change fee structures without prior notice
  • Update or modify these Terms
  • Restrict access to certain features or geographic regions

We do not guarantee continuous availability of the Service and are not responsible for any downtime, interruptions, or service modifications. Scheduled maintenance and unexpected outages may occur. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify users of planned maintenance but make no guarantee of advance notice.

8. Third-Party Services and SaaS Dependencies

The Service integrates with third-party services and relies on various SaaS providers including:

  • Jupiter aggregator for token swaps
  • HeroSwap for additional swap functionality
  • Solana blockchain network
  • Privy for wallet management and authentication
  • Supabase for database services and data storage
  • Licensed third-party fiat on-ramp and off-ramp partners (which may include providers such as Stripe or MoonPay, when enabled)
  • Other SaaS providers for various backend services

Fiat On-Ramp / Off-Ramp Partners:

When you use an integrated fiat conversion, on-ramp, or off-ramp feature, GotSOL only provides the software interface that connects you to the partner. The partner—not GotSOL—handles movement of fiat currency and holds any required licenses (such as Money Transmitter Licenses). All such transactions occur directly between you and the partner under that partner's terms, privacy policy, and compliance obligations. GotSOL is not a party to those fiat transactions, does not custody fiat, and does not act as a financial intermediary for them.

Important Disclaimers:

  • GotSOL is not affiliated with the Solana Foundation. We do not represent, partner with, or claim any endorsement, sponsorship, or official relationship with the Solana Foundation. Use of the Solana blockchain does not create any affiliation with the Solana Foundation.
  • We do not control these third-party services and are not responsible for their availability, functionality, or any issues that may arise from their use
  • SaaS provider downtime, outages, or service interruptions may affect the availability of our Service
  • Upstream SaaS provider issues can cause downstream service disruptions beyond our control
  • We are not responsible for any losses, damages, or business interruptions caused by third-party service failures
  • Service availability is dependent on the continued operation of all integrated third-party services
  • Use of third-party services is at your sole discretion and risk. GotSOL does not endorse, warrant, or assume responsibility for any third-party services. Any disputes between you and third-party providers must be resolved directly with those providers.

9. Fees and Payment

Fees may be assessed per transaction and/or at withdrawal. Current rates: 1.25% of gross Merchant withdrawal amounts and a 0.001% added fee on Jupiter swaps. Fees may be deducted from on-chain proceeds, netted, or invoiced. We may use third-party processors to collect fees.

All fees are non-refundable except as required by law. You are responsible for all blockchain network fees. You are solely responsible for all taxes arising from your use of the Service (including filings and remittances). We may, where required by law, collect or withhold taxes.

You authorize us to set off, net, or deduct any amounts you owe from amounts otherwise payable or facilitated through the Service. Past due amounts may accrue interest at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum permitted by law and may be referred to collections; you agree to reimburse reasonable costs of collection.

Binding Arbitration.

Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally shall be finally resolved by confidential, binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules (including, if applicable, the AAA Consumer Rules). The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. The seat and venue of arbitration shall be Teton County, Wyoming, except that the parties may agree to conduct hearings remotely.

Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Costs.

Each party shall bear its own arbitration costs and attorneys' fees, except as otherwise required by applicable law or the AAA Rules, or as awarded by the arbitrator.

Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver.

Beta Features may be incomplete or change at any time and are provided "AS IS," without warranty or service commitments. You assume all risk of use and agree not to rely on Beta Features for production-critical activities.

29. APIs & Rate Limits
