Salary Deductions Consent

Where you have selected Salary Finance Save: You irrevocably agree that your Employer will, and you instruct your employer to, deduct your selected amounts from your salary (“Deductions”) on your pay day and transfer such sums to us on your behalf. Salary Finance is obtaining this agreement and instruction from you on behalf of your Employer.

Where you have selected Jars: You irrevocably agree that your Employer will, and you instruct your employer to, make Deductions on your pay day and:

  • pay the Deductions to Salary Finance if the amount in your YBS Account is equal to or less than the Cap (as defined below), or if you do not have a pension; or
  • pay the Deductions to your pension provider if the amount in your YBS Account exceeds the Cap.

Salary Finance will transfer the Deductions to your YBS Account. If we are not able to credit your YBS Account with the Deduction for any reason, we will contact you to request your bank account details so that we can pay that Deduction to you. It is your responsibility to provide us with correct bank account details. Errors in your bank account details, or failing to provide us with up-to-date details, may result in a delay in us transferring Deductions to you.

Salary Finance reserves the right (in its sole discretion) to suspend or terminate the availability of Salary Finance Save to you. Where possible, we will let you know in advance of stopping the services. In particular, your access to Salary Deduction for Salary Finance Save is dependent on your Employer and so this service may no longer be available to you if you cease your existing employment.

Eligibility

Salary Finance Save is only available to employees of Employers who have registered with us. If your Employer is not registered with us, you will not be able to make a Salary Finance account or apply for Salary Finance Save or our other products.

Our website is intended solely for users who are 18 years of age or older. By using our website, you represent and warrant that you are 18 years of age or older.

Salary Finance account registration

To apply for Salary Finance Save, you will be required to create a Salary Finance account. To create a Salary Finance account, you will be asked to provide certain personal information (as detailed in our Privacy Policy).

Your Employer must be registered as a participating employer. Your Employer may be registered for Salary Finance Save but not Jars. If your Employer is not registered for Jars, you will not be able to use the Jars service.

As part of the registration process, you agree to us processing your personal data, and us and your Employer sharing relevant information between each other to enable us to validate your employment and payroll details.

Further details about the personal data that we obtain from you (or from third parties, such as your Employer) and how we use such data are set out in our Privacy Policy.

If you have, or are in the process of applying for, any of our other products, this will not affect your application for those other products and visa-versa.

Accuracy of information

When creating a Salary Finance account or applying for a product on our website, you agree to provide current, complete and accurate information about yourself. If any information you provide is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, we may not make our products and/or services available to you and may terminate your Salary Finance account.

You must promptly notify us of any changes to your personal details from time to time.

In addition, you should keep your details (including bank account details) up-to-date on your YBS Account via YBS. Salary Finance shall not be responsible for updating your personal details on your YBS Account. Updating your personal details on your YBS Account will not automatically result in your details with Salary Finance being updated; you should notify us separately.

YBS

Once you have registered for a Salary Finance Account we will put you in touch with YBS so that you can open a YBS Account for your savings to be deposited.

Salary Finance are responsible for all salary deduction processes, and YBS are responsible for all banking and account activities related to your YBS Account.

This means Salary Finance is not responsible in any way for changes made to your YBS Account. These Terms do not govern the use of your YBS Account so please ensure you read and agree to YBS’ terms and conditions applicable to your YBS Account.

This agreement is between you and Salary Finance. Salary Finance provides technology to enable you to make deposits to your YBS Account directly from your earnings. Salary Finance accepts no responsibility for the acts or omissions of YBS, including any information provided by YBS, or for any other matters relating to your YBS Account, including any eligibility criteria or payment of interest.

Salary Finance is not responsible for the availability (or lack of availability) of the websites or services of YBS. Salary Finance takes no responsibility for any content that you may receive from YBS. In relation to your interaction with YBS, YBS’s terms will govern their relationship with you.

Savings amount

When you apply for Salary Finance Save, we will ask you to select an amount you would like to save into your YBS Account each month. We do not carry out affordability checks with respect to Salary Finance Save. It is solely your responsibility to (i) select your deduction amount for your paycycle, and (ii) ensure that the amount is feasible for you.

If you do not have enough money in your pay on pay day to cover all of your chosen amount for Salary Finance Save, nothing will be deducted.

You can change the amount you wish to save at any time, and the change will take effect in the next possible pay period, unless otherwise specified at the time.

If you notify us that you wish to pause or stop your salary deductions, we will seek to process this instruction by your next pay period (subject to your Employer’s payroll cut off dates and internal processes, which may delay the time it takes to cease your salary deductions).

If you have other Salary Finance products, deductions from your earnings shall be applied in the following order of priority from first to last: Advance, Borrow, Salary Deduction for HtS, Jars and Salary Finance Save.

All money received by us will be transferred to YBS as soon as practicably possible and in any event within one working day of receipt of funds from your Employer unless something unexpected occurs, in which case it may take longer than one day. Please note that we may receive funds from your Employer several days after they are deducted from your earnings and and so you may experience a delay in seeing these funds credited to your YBS Account. We will notify you on our website if we are aware that there will be a delay between your pay day and the day the date that funds will be credited to your YBS Account.

Additional terms applying to Jars

The provisions in this paragraph 9 will only apply to you if you are applying for Jars (if this service is available to you).

When you apply for Jars, we will ask you to select an amount you would like to save into your YBS Account (the “Cap”). Once the Cap is reached, Deductions will continue and your Employer will pay Deductions above the Cap into the pension you have in place with your Employer. We do not carry out affordability checks with respect to Jars. It is solely your responsibility to (i) select your Cap and your monthly deduction amount, (ii) ensure that the amount is feasible for you, (iii) ensure that the amount complies with any applicable rules of your pension and (iv) check your own personal tax position. Salary Finance is not providing any advice or recommendations about your pension; it purely provides a service to assist you to transfer amounts above the Cap to your employer so that it can be transferred to your pension.

When you apply for Jars, we will ask you if you would like to participate in a survey about your saving habits. The survey is run by the National Employment Savings Trust Corporation (“NEST”) in conjunction with the National Bureau of Economic Research (“NBER”). If you choose to participate in the survey, we will pass your details to NEST who will contact you with survey details. More information on what details we share is provided in our Privacy Policy.

These terms and our Privacy Policy do not govern how NEST or NBER will use your information so please ensure you review the terms and Privacy Policy provided by NEST.
