SettleQuik Service Level Agreement (SLA)

Effective Date: October 31, 2025

Last Updated: October 31, 2025

Introduction

This Service Level Agreement ("SLA") supplements and forms part of the Terms and Conditions ("Terms") between SettleQuik LLC ("SettleQuik," "we," "us," or "our"), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Oklahoma, with its principal place of business at 9905 S Pennsylvania Ave Ste A, Oklahoma City, OK 73159, and you ("Customer," "you," or "your"), as a subscriber to the SettleQuik services (the "Services") accessible via settlequik.com (the "Site"). This SLA applies only to paid subscribers on the Pro Plan ($10 per month) or Business Plan ($20 per month); the Free Plan is provided "as is" without service level commitments.

By subscribing to a paid plan, you agree to this SLA. We commit to maintaining high availability and responsive support for the Services, which include customizable landing pages for payment link aggregation, analytics (Pro and Business Plans), and related features. SettleQuik does not guarantee uninterrupted access to third-party services (e.g., PayPal, Stripe) linked by Customers, as we do not control or process payments.

This SLA does not confer any additional rights beyond those in the Terms and may be updated with notice as provided therein. For questions, contact support@settlequik.com. This SLA is governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma.
