For purposes of this policy the terms “you”, and “your” refer to the customer and the terms “our”, “Bank”, “we”, and “us” refer to The State Bank of Geneva. Our policy is to generally make funds from your cash and check deposits made in person to one of our employees at our main Bank, Drive-Thru, or Walk-up facilities available to you on the first business day after the day we receive your deposit. Electronic direct deposits will generally be available on the day we receive the deposit. Once the funds are available, you may withdraw the funds in cash, and we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written. Please remember that even after we have made funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds, you are still responsible for checks you deposit that are returned to the Bank unpaid and for any other problems involving your deposit.
Determining the Availability of Deposits
For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal holidays. If you make a deposit before the close of business on any given business day, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. Close of the Bank’s business day is 6:00 p.m. Central Standard Time. If you make a deposit at an ATM, the business day we consider the deposit made is dependent on the daily cutoff time established by the institution that owns the ATM. The cutoff times vary from ATM to ATM, and you must ascertain the cutoff time for the particular ATM you use to make the deposit. A deposit made on a business day prior to the designated cutoff time will be considered deposited that business day. If you make a deposit at an ATM after its specific cutoff time, it will be considered made on the next business day.
Night Depository Box
Deposits made per the Bank’s night depository box are retrieved the morning of the next business day and are considered as received by the Bank that same Business Day. Deposits that are placed in the Bank’s night depository box during the day, even if the Bank is open, will not be processed until the next Business Day.
Deposits Made by Consumer Mobile Banking/Remote Deposit Capture
Transactions submitted by you via Mobile Banking/Remote Deposit Capture on a Business Day prior to the deadline established by the Bank (3:00 p.m. Central Standard Time) will generally be considered received and made that day. However, transactions submitted by you that are received after 3:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on a business day and all transactions which are requested on Saturdays, Sundays, or Federal holidays will be processed on the Bank’s next business day.
Longer Delays May Apply
In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you according to the aforementioned stated availability schedule. Depending on the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit. However, the first $225.00 of your deposit will be available on the first business day after we receive your deposit. If we are NOT going to make all of the funds from your deposit available on the first business day, we will notify you at the time you make your deposit. We will also inform you when the funds will be available. If your deposit is not made directly to one of our Bank tellers/employees, or if we decide to take this action after you have left the premises, we will mail you the notice informing you of this the day after we receive your deposit. If you will need the funds from a deposit immediately, you should ask us when the funds will be available.
Funds that you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
• We believe a check you deposited will not be paid.
• You deposit checks totaling more than $5,525.00 on any one day
• You redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid.
• You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.
• There is an emergency, such as failure of communication or computer equipment
If we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, we will notify you and we will tell you when the funds will be available. The funds will generally be available no later than the seventh business day after the day of your deposit.
Holds on Other Funds (Check Cashing)
If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another bank, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in your account.
Foreign Checks
Checks drawn on financial institutions outside of the U.S. (foreign checks) cannot be processed the same as checks drawn on U.S. Financial institutions. Foreign checks are exempt from the policies outlined in this disclosure. Generally, the availability of funds from deposits of foreign checks will be delayed for the time it takes us to collect the funds from the financial institutions upon which they are drawn.
Special Rules for New Accounts
If you are a new customer, the following special rules will apply during the first 30 days your account is open.
Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,525.00 of a day’s total deposits of cashier’s, certified, teller’s, traveler’s; and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit providing the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you. The excess over $5,525.00 will be available on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of our employees, the first $5,525.00 will not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit. Funds from all other check deposits will generally be available on the ninth business day after the day of deposit.
Refusal of a Deposit
The Bank, at its sole discretion reserves the right not to accept any deposit (e.g., mutilated checks, checks payable to a third party, etc.).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Service provider shall not be responsible for any such charges if the Service provider does not have responsibility or liability for a Payment transaction, late payments or late payment related charges under the other provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, those payments described under the Exception Payments section below.
RESPONSIBILITY
The Service provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to process the Scheduled Payments per your instructions. Neither the Service provider nor the Bank shall be liable for any Payment transaction if: (i) you do not have enough money in your Funding Account to complete the transaction; (ii) a legal order prohibits withdrawals from your account; (iii) your Funding Account is closed or has been frozen, or is otherwise not authorized to debit the corresponding Payment Amount; (iv) the transaction would cause your balance to go over the credit limit for any credit arrangement set up to cover overdrafts; (v) you, or anyone you allow, commits fraud or violates any law or regulation in connection with the Services; (vi) any electronic terminal, telecommunication device or part of the electronic fund transfer system is not working properly; (vii) you did not provide complete and correct Funding Account, Payment or Payee information; (viii) you did not properly follow the instructions or terms and conditions for use of the Service; (ix) you knew and/or had been advised that Service was not operating properly at the time you scheduled the Payment; (x) there is a postal delay; (xi) circumstances beyond the Service provider’s control (such as fire, flood or improper transmission or handling by a third party) that prevent, hinder or delay the transaction; or (xii) your funding account is in a dormant status

The Bank in some cases may request notification from you by written correspondence.
LIABILITY
You will be responsible for any Payment request you make that contains an error or is a duplicate of another Payment. The Bank and/or Service provider is not responsible for a Payment that is not made if you did not properly follow the instructions for making a Payment. The Bank and/or Service provider is not liable for any failure to make a Payment if you fail to promptly notify the Bank after you learn that you have not received credit from a Payee for a Payment. The Bank and/or Service provider is not responsible for your acts or omissions or those of any other person, including, without limitation, any Payee or transmission or communications facility, and no such party shall be deemed to be the Bank’s and/or Service provider’s agent. The Bank and/or
its service provider will not be held liable for not processing transactions we suspect of being fraudulent and have provided notification to you or we suspect that the Payee is a blocked entity under the Office of Foreign Assets Control Sanctions. In any event, the Bank and/or Service provider will not be liable for any special, consequential, incidental, or punitive losses, damages, or expenses in connection with this Agreement or the Service, even if the Bank and/or Service provider has knowledge of the possibility of them. The Bank and/or Service provider is not liable for any act, failure to act or delay in acting if it is caused, in whole or in part, by any cause beyond the Bank and/or Service provider’s reasonable control.
SETTING UP AND MAINTAINING PAYEES
To begin using the Service you will first need to establish at least one Payee in your Payee List. You may add, modify or delete Payees as necessary. It is your responsibility to manage your Payee List and maintain accurate Payee information, such as but not limited to the address to which the Payee specifies Payments are to be delivered, your account number with the Payee, the name on your account with the Payee, etc., except where the Service expressly indicates that it shall manage such Payee information, such as a Merchant’s remittance address. Payees must reside or exist within the United States of America or its territories or commonwealths. The Service provider and/or the Bank reserve the right to refuse or remove a Payee for any reason.
SETTING UP PAYMENTS
To schedule Payments, you must choose a Payee from your Payee List. You may schedule One-Time Payments and Recurring Payments to any of your Payees. It is your responsibility to cancel, skip, reschedule or revise a Scheduled Payment in accordance with the Payee’s instructions to you, or as needed to ensure sufficient available funds in the corresponding Funding Account, or under circumstances where the Payee may return the Payment to the Service provider due to any reason outside the Service provider’s or the Bank’s control. The Service provider and/or the Bank reserve the right to refuse or cancel a Payment for any reason.
The earliest possible Payment Date / Withdraw On Date and Due Date / Deliver By Date for each Payee will be determined and presented by the Service when you schedule a Payment. The Service will not permit a Payment Date / Withdraw On Date or Due Date / Deliver By Date earlier than the earliest possible dates presented. The Service determines this earliest possible Payment Date / Withdraw On Date and Due Date / Deliver By Date based on the number of Business Days required to deliver a Payment to the Payee, which is primarily affected by whether or not the Payee has agreed to accept remittance of Payments electronically (typically one or two (1 or 2) Business Days) or requires Payments be delivered by check (typically four or five (4 or 5) Business Days). A Payee’s location or policies for posting and crediting payments may require additional Business Days. Payments scheduled after the Service’s Cut-Off Time shall be processed no earlier than the following Business Day. Currently, the Cut-Off Time is 3:00 p.m. Central Standard Time, but the Service provider and/or the Bank may change the Cut-Off Time without prior notice.
You should carefully consider factors such as the Payee’s date payment due, grace period, whether the Payee’s date payment due falls on a non-Business Day, etc., when scheduling a Payment to avoid late payments and late fees. You must allow the necessary number of Business Days prior to the Payee’s date payment due for each Payment, including each Payment of a Recurring Payment series. Some businesses take longer to post payments than others. You should consider allowing additional time for the initial Payment to a Payee through the Service in order to gauge the appropriate Payment Date / Withdraw On Date or Due Date / Deliver By Date in each case, and determine whether to allow an additional one (1) or two (2) business days to avoid incurring any late fee charged by the Payee. It is your responsibility to schedule Payments appropriately and in accordance with the Payee’s requirements. Neither the Service provider nor the Bank shall be responsible for late payments, nor reimburse you for late fees, for any Payment delivered in accordance with your instructions, or as a result of a Payee’s payment processing policies, or any other circumstance outside the Service provider’s and/or Bank’s control.
Payments to Payees, businesses or individuals, outside the United States of America or its territories or commonwealths, are prohibited.
EDITING OR CANCELING PAYMENTS
Any Payment can be modified or canceled, provided you access the Service prior to the Cut-Off Time on the Business Day Payment is going to be processed. Once a Payment is in-process, it cannot be canceled through the Service. Instead, you must contact Deposit Operations or Relationship Banking to request a stop payment. A Recurring Payment may be edited or canceled after processing the current Payment.
STOP PAYMENT
You may request to stop payment after a payment has been processed by contacting Deposit Operations or Relationship Banking. The Service’s ability to successfully stop payment depends on how the funds were remitted to the Payee and the elapsed time since the Payment was processed. You may place Stop Payments on payments you have made electronically by calling the Bank’s service provider customer support phone number: 1-855-385-8071. You may place a Stop Payment on a paper check by phone with the Bank’s Relationship Banking or Deposit Operations Departments by calling: 630-232-3201 or 630-232-3210. You may place the stop payment in person or by mail; however, we must receive a signed stop payment order request back within 14 days. If we do not receive the completed Stop Payment Order from you within that time frame the Stop Payment will be deleted. The Service provider and the Bank will make commercially reasonable efforts to stop payment per your request, but shall have no liability if unsuccessful. You may be charged a stop payment fee for each request.
EXCEPTION PAYMENTS
Tax payments and court ordered payments may be scheduled through the Service; however, such payments are discouraged and must be scheduled at your own risk. In no event shall the Bank or Service provider be liable for any claims or damages resulting from you scheduling these types of payments. The Service provider shall have no obligation to research or resolve any claim resulting from any such payment. All research and resolution for any misapplied, misposted or misdirected payments will be your sole responsibility.
BILL PAYMENT PROCESS
The Service will process Payments in accordance with the Payment instructions you provide. The Service will not process Payments on weekends or Federal Bank holidays. The Service will debit your Funding Account or issue a draft against your Funding Account, and deliver those funds to the designated Payee on your behalf such that the funds arrive as close to the scheduled Due Date / Deliver By Date as is reasonably practicable.
Numerous business and technical requirements determine if a Payee can accept Payments electronically, but in all cases Payments can be remitted by check. The Service provider shall have sole discretion to determine the appropriate remittance method. In order to process Payments efficiently and effectively, or otherwise comply with Payees’ remittance requirements, the Service reserves the right to change or update Payee data, or alter the method of Payment remittance. Neither the Service provider nor the Bank shall be responsible for late payments, nor reimburse you for late fees, due to: a) U.S. postal delivery issues; b) electronic remittance network issues; c) your Payee’s payment processing procedures; d) instances where the financial risk associated with the Payment requires check remittance instead of electronic remittance or additional Business Days to ensure sufficient funds in the Funding Account are available; or d) other circumstances beyond its control.
AUTHORIZATION
When you schedule a Payment, you expressly authorize the Service provider and/or the Bank to withdraw from your Funding Account the Payment Amount and to remit those funds to the designated Payee on your behalf, and additionally to debit your Funding Account for any applicable Service related fees. You further authorize the Bank to credit your Funding Account for any payment returned from or undeliverable to the Payee. In addition, you certify that the Funding Account is an account from which you are authorized to make payments and incur debits.
You agree to have available and collected funds on deposit in the designated Funding Account in amounts sufficient to process each Payment as requested by you, as well as any other payment obligations you have to the Bank. The Bank reserves the right, without liability, to reject or reverse a Payment if you fail to comply with this requirement or any other terms of this Agreement. If you do not have sufficient funds in the Funding Account and the Bank has not exercised its right to reverse or reject a Payment, you agree to pay for such Payment obligations on demand. You further agree the Bank, at its option, may charge any of your accounts at the Bank to cover such Payment obligations.
You authorize the Service provider and the Bank to contact your Payees to request appropriate adjustments consistent with your Payment instructions and/or as pertaining to the Service Guarantee and Responsibility, and/or to stop payment on any draft issued against your Funding Account in connection with the Service in the unlikely event that the Service remits funds incorrectly to any of your Payees, and/or to withdraw funds from your Funding Account in such event if you otherwise receive the benefit of the amount of such incorrectly remitted funds.

To provide your information to the payee you have established an E-Bill with

The Service shall use commercially reasonable efforts to research and correct the returned payment, or void the payment and credit your Payment Account. You may receive notification from the Service.

Liability Provisions Applicable to Personal/Consumer Accounts Only
Tell us at once if you believe your security credentials have been lost or forgotten. Calling (630-232-3201 or 630-232-3210) is the best way of keeping your possible losses to a minimum. If your security credentials have been compromised and you tell us within two (2) business days of discovering the loss or misappropriation, you can lose no more than fifty dollars ($50). If you do not tell us within the two (2) business day period, you could lose as much as five hundred dollars ($500) if we could have stopped the use of your accounts had we received notice in a timely manner. You must contact Relationship Banking or Deposit Operations as soon as you identify any errors or discrepancies in your statement or transaction record, or if you need any information about a transaction listed on the statement or transaction record.
We must hear from you no later than sixty (60) days after we have sent the first statement on which the unauthorized transaction, problem or error appeared (If you notify us verbally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing or electronically within ten (10) business days). If you fail to notify us within the sixty (60) day period, you may not recover any of the money you lost if we can establish that the loss could have been avoided had you notified us on time. We may extend these time periods for good reasons such as out-of-town travel or extended hospital stays.
When you report a problem or discrepancy, please: (i) tell us your name and Service account number; (ii) describe the error or the transaction you are unsure about, and explain why you believe it is in error or what additional information you need; (iii) tell us the dollar amount of any suspected error; and (iv) tell us the Funding Account number used to pay the bill, the Payee name, the applicable account number at the Payee, the date the Payment was sent, the Payment Amount and the Payment reference number. Generally speaking, we will tell you the results of our investigation within ten (10) business days after we hear from you. However, we may take up to forty-five (45) days to investigate your complaint or question. In this case, we may provisionally credit your account so that you have use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If you fail to provide your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days of a request from us to do so, we reserve the right to not credit your account. If we confirm an error, we will correct your account record within ten (10) business days. If we determine that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation within three (3) business days after we conclude our investigation and will debit any interim amounts credited to your account. You may request copies of any documents that we use in our investigation.
Liability Provisions Applicable to Business Accounts
Business accounts do not have the same rights and protections offered to personal/consumer accounts in regards to Regulation E., therefore you agree to use this service at your exclusive risk. Risks may include, but are not limited to invalid or fraudulent transactions. We will be responsible for conducting the services described in this agreement with the same diligence we generally apply to all our clients.
All transactions conducted through Small Business Bill Pay will be reflected on your periodic Bank statement. You are responsible for reviewing your statement for any discrepancies regarding transactions. You agree to contact the Bank upon the discovery of any error or discrepancy immediately.
ELECTRONIC MAIL (E-MAIL)
Sending E-mail is a very good way to communicate with Bank and/or Service provider regarding your accounts or the Services. However, your e-mail is actually sent via your own software and, as a result, is not secure. Because of this, you should not include confidential information, such as account numbers and balances in any e-mail communication. You cannot use e-mail to initiate Service transactions. All such transactions must be initiated using the appropriate functions within the Service. Neither the Service provider nor the Bank shall be liable for any errors, omissions, claims, or problems of any kind involving your e-mail.
DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
It is our policy to treat your Bill Pay Service account information as confidential. However, the Service provider and/or the Bank may disclose certain information about you, your accounts and/or Payments to third parties in situations such as: when necessary to complete a Payment transaction per your instructions; when necessary to activate additional services per your request; in order to determine credit worthiness; in order to comply with government agency or court orders, financial services regulations or law; or if you give the Bank or Service provider written permission.
Information submitted to the Service provider or its suppliers is the property of those parties, and they are free to use and disclose that information, or any ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained in that information to any third party for any purpose whatsoever, except as specifically agreed by the Bank or prohibited by law.
ACCOUNT AND CONTACT INFORMATION
It is your sole responsibility to maintain accurate and complete contact information and Funding Account information in your user profile. This includes, but is not limited to, name, address, phone numbers and email addresses, and verifying account numbers. Changes can be made within the Service or by contacting Relationship Banking in person or by submitting official Bank documentation (e.g., address change form) notifying the Bank of the update. Changes you make on the system are typically effective immediately. Neither the Service provider nor the Bank shall be responsible for any payment processing errors or fees incurred if you do not provide accurate Funding Account or contact information.
LINKS TO OTHER SITES
Information that the Service provider or the Bank publishes on the World Wide Web may contain links to other sites and third parties may establish links to Service’s site.

You are encouraged to routinely scan your computer and files using reliable virus protection products to detect and remove viruses. If undetected and unrepaired, a virus can corrupt and destroy your programs, files and hardware.
DAMAGES AND WARRANTIES

These Terms are a legal agreement between you and the Bank. The terms of this Agreement are in addition to those that apply to any account or service you have with SBG. The customer is requested to review the Terms and Conditions carefully before selecting “Agree” within the Mobile Wallet and adding or using any Card with the Wallet because, by doing so, the customer agrees to all terms, conditions, and notices contained or referenced in these Terms.

What is a Mobile Wallet Service?
A Mobile Wallet Service is available to cardholders for the purpose of purchasing goods and services using a compatible wireless mobile phone, tablet, smart watch, computer, or any other device that supports the Mobile Wallet Service as a form of payment. The Wallet allows you to add your SBG Card to an application using your Mobile Device. Your SBG Card number is replaced with a digital number or token. The wallet enables you to create and store virtual representations of your eligible SBG debit card and add account information on your supported device creating a mobile Wallet that will permit you to use your Wallet to make purchases at authorized merchants and merchant websites. The Wallet allows you to use your compatible device to access and use your Cards to make such purchases in place of presenting or using your physical Card.
The State Bank of Geneva is Not Responsible for the Wallet
The State Bank of Geneva is not the provider of the Wallet, and we are not responsible for providing the Wallet service to you. We are only responsible for supplying information securely to the Wallet provider to allow usage of the SBG Card in the Wallet. You understand that you may use your Mobile Device to make payments only where the Wallet is accepted. We are not responsible for any failure of the Wallet or the inability to use the Wallet for any transaction. We are not responsible for the performance or non-performance of the Wallet provider or any other third parties regarding any agreement you enter into with the Wallet provider or associated third-party relationships that may impact your use of the Wallet.

If your Bank Card or any underlying Bank account becomes delinquent, is in a negative status, or is otherwise maintained in an unsafe manner (e.g., fraudulent activity occurs) as determined at the sole discretion of the Bank, your SBG Card may be removed by the Bank from the Wallet. The Wallet may not be accepted at all places where your Bank Card is accepted.
Relationship to Other Agreements

The Card-Member Agreement or account agreement that governs the SBG Card, amended from time to time, are incorporated by reference as part of these Terms. It is advised that you review those agreements periodically. The Wallet simply provides another way for you to make purchases or other transactions with the SBG Card. You consent to receive electronic communications from us in connection with your SBG Card and the Wallet. You agree that we may contact you by email at any email address you provide to us in connection with any SBG product, service, or account you maintain at SBG.

Changes in These Terms and Conditions
Except as otherwise required by law, SBG may at its sole discretion change these terms and modify or cancel the eligibility to use your SBG Card with a Wallet service at any time, without notice to you. You cannot change these terms, but you can terminate them by removing your SBG Card(s) from the Wallet. SBG reserves the right to refuse any transaction for any reason.
We Can Block, Suspend, or Cancel Your Use of an SBG Card
We can block you from adding an SBG Card to the Wallet, suspend your ability to use an SBG Card to make purchases using the Wallet, or cancel entirely your ability to continue to use an SBG Card in the Wallet. We may take these actions at any time and for any reason, such as if we suspect fraud with your SBG Card, if you have a negative balance on your SBG Card account, if applicable laws change or if directed to do so by the Wallet Provider or the applicable card network (such as MasterCard).
