Description of Services
Core Services
SyncTools.AI provides data integration and syncing between third-party applications, as well as AI-powered accounting automation. The specific features available to you depend on your subscription plan (Free Plan or Paid Plan).
Free Trial and Free Plan
We offer a free trial period and/or a Free Plan that allows you to evaluate the Services with limited functionality and no credit card required. The duration, features, and limitations of any free trial or Free Plan are as described on our website and may be changed at our discretion.
Service Availability
We Endeavor to make the Services available on a continuous basis but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access. We may suspend, modify, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time, with or without notice, for maintenance, upgrades, security, or other operational reasons. We shall not be liable for any downtime or service interruptions.
AI-Powered Features
Certain features of the Services use artificial intelligence and machine learning. While we strive for accuracy, AI-generated outputs may contain errors or inaccuracies. You acknowledge that AI-powered features are provided on an “as is” basis and that you are responsible for reviewing and verifying all outputs before relying on them for accounting, financial, or business decisions.
Partner Programs
If you participate in a SyncTools partner program (including but not limited to referral, affiliate, reseller, or integration partner programmes), your participation is subject to separate commercial terms or a Partner Agreement provided to you at the time of enrolment. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the applicable Partner Agreement, the Partner Agreement shall prevail to the extent of the conflict, solely with respect to matters covered by the Partner Agreement. Participation in any partner programme does not create a joint venture, agency, or employment relationship between you and Synctools Pte. Ltd.
Third-Party Services and Integrations
Third-Party Connections
The Services integrate with Third-Party Services. Your use of any Third-Party Service is governed by that provider’s own terms and conditions and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the performance, availability, accuracy, or content of any Third-Party Service.
API Access and Data
By connecting a Third-Party Service to SyncTools.AI, you authorise us to access, retrieve, and process data from that Third-Party Service on your behalf, in accordance with the permissions you grant. You represent and warrant that you have the necessary rights and authorisations to share such data with us.
Changes to Third-Party Services
Third-party providers may modify, restrict, or discontinue their APIs or services at any time. We are not responsible for any loss of functionality in our Services resulting from changes made by Third-Party Service providers.
Subscription Plans, Fees, and Payment
Subscription Plans
Details of our Free Plan and Paid Plans, including features and pricing, are available on our website. We reserve the right to modify our plans, features, and pricing at any time. Changes to pricing will not apply to your current Subscription Term but will take effect upon renewal.
Payment Methods
Subscription Fees are processed through our third-party payment processors. For direct customers, payments are processed by Stripe. For customers subscribing through the Shopify App Store, payments are collected by Shopify and remitted to us in accordance with Shopify’s standard billing procedures. You agree to abide by the terms and conditions of the applicable payment processor.
Billing Cycle
Paid Plans are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, depending on your selection). Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each Subscription Term unless cancelled prior to the renewal date.
Taxes
All Subscription Fees are exclusive of applicable taxes (including VAT, GST, and sales tax) unless otherwise stated. You are responsible for paying all applicable taxes associated with your subscription. Where required by law, we will charge and collect the appropriate taxes.
Failed Payments
If a payment fails, we may retry the charge and/or suspend your access to the Paid Plan features until payment is received. Continued failure to pay may result in termination of your Account.
Refund Policy
General Policy
Because we offer a free trial and/or Free Plan that allows you to evaluate the Services before committing to a Paid Plan, all purchases are final and non-refundable, except as expressly set out in this Section 6 or as required by applicable law.
No Refund Upon Cancellation
If you cancel your Paid Plan during a Subscription Term, you will retain access to the Paid Plan features until the end of the current billing period. No pro-rated refund will be issued for the remaining period, and no further charges will be made after the current billing period ends.
Service Unavailability
If we are unable to provide the Services to you for reasons attributable to us (and not to Third-Party Services or circumstances beyond our reasonable control), you may be entitled to a pro-rated refund for the unused portion of your Subscription Term. Such refunds are granted at our sole discretion on a case-by-case basis.
Exceptions for UK Consumers
If you are a consumer located in the United Kingdom, you may have certain statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. In particular:
- 14-Day Cooling-Off Period: If you subscribe to a Paid Plan, you have the right to cancel within 14 days of the date your subscription commences (the “Cooling-Off Period”) and receive a full refund, provided that you have not started using the paid Services during this period. If you request that the Services begin during the Cooling- Off Period and subsequently cancel, you may be charged a proportionate amount for the Services used up to the point of cancellation.
- Faulty or Not as Described Services: If the Services are not as described or not fit for purpose, you may have the right to a remedy under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which may include a refund, price reduction, or re-performance of the service.
- Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a UK consumer, and in the event of any conflict between these Terms and your statutory rights, your statutory rights shall prevail.
EU Consumer Rights
If you are a consumer located in the European Union, similar statutory cancellation rights may apply under the Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU) as implemented in your jurisdiction. Where applicable, the same principles described in Section 6.4 shall apply.

If you subscribe to the Services through a third-party marketplace, platform, reseller, or app store (including but not limited to Shopify, Amazon, QuickBooks, Xero, Zoho Books, or any similar platform), SyncTools does not process, manage, or issue refunds for such transactions. All billing, cancellation requests, and refund claims for subscriptions purchased through a third-party platform must be directed to the applicable third-party platform in accordance with their respective refund and billing policies. Synctools Pte. Ltd. accepts no responsibility or liability for refund decisions made by such third-party platforms, and the refund terms of the applicable platform shall govern your transaction.
