TERMS OF USE AND CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE
Revised: August 29, 2024
Welcome to Monkey King Bets and our Terms of Use and Conditions of Purchase (these “Terms”).
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THESE TERMS BEFORE USING THE SERVICES (DEFINED BELOW) OR PLACING AN ORDER.
Note that Section 15 of these Terms contains a mandatory arbitration provision that requires Monkey King Bets and you to use binding arbitration on an individual basis and limits the remedies available to Monkey King Bets and you in the event of certain disputes. By agreeing to these Terms, Monkey King Bets and you are giving up our rights to bring our disputes before a jury or as a member of a class action.
By accessing or using the services provided by Monkey King Bets or our subsidiaries or other affiliates (collectively, “Monkey King Bets,” “we,” “us” or “our”) through our websites, blogs and/or mobile applications (collectively, the “Sites” and together with such services, the “Services”) you agree to be bound by these Terms and all of the Terms incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Services.
If you are using the Services on behalf of any entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to accept these Terms on such entity’s behalf and that such entity agrees to be responsible to us if you or such entity violates these Terms.
Monkey King Bets reserves the right to change or modify these Terms at any time and in our sole discretion. If we make material changes to these Terms, we will provide notice of such changes, such as by sending you an email notification or providing notice through the Sites. By continuing to access or use the Services in any way after such notice has been provided, you confirm your acceptance of the revised Terms and all of the terms incorporated therein by reference. We encourage you to review the Terms frequently to ensure that you understand the terms and conditions that apply when you access or use the Services or Order. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you are free to reject them and will not be able to access or use the Services.

You may opt out of receiving these promotional emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions provided therein.
4. Terms of Sale.
A. Products.
We make certain digital services and related products available for purchase through the Services (collectively, the “Product(s)”). Monkey King Bets may have the ability to offer individual Products for purchase by consumers.
B. Subscriptions.
PLANS. Monkey King Bets offers various subscription plans for the recurring delivery of our Products (each purchase of any such plan, a “Subscription”) and may offer recurring or one-time Products for sale. Our Product offerings and available Subscription plans are described on our website and mobile application, as applicable, at the time of purchase, and are subject to change at any time prior to purchase.
AUTOMATIC RENEWAL OF SUBSCRIPTION. WHEN YOU PURCHASE A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT (A) MONKEY KING BETS (OR OUR THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSOR(S)) IS AUTHORIZED TO CHARGE YOU ON A MONTHLY BASIS FOR THE PRICE OF YOUR CHOSEN SUBSCRIPTION (IN ADDITION TO ANY APPLICABLE TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES SET FORTH DURING THE PURCHASE PROCESS) FOR AS LONG AS YOUR SUBSCRIPTION CONTINUES, AND (B) YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IS CONTINUOUS UNTIL YOU CANCEL IT OR WE SUSPEND OR TERMINATE THE SUBSCRIPTION. THE MONTHLY RECURRING CHARGES FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL BE SET FORTH DURING THE PURCHASE PROCESS ("PAYMENT"). THE AMOUNT YOU ARE CHARGED MAY VARY DEPENDING ON THE PREFERENCES YOU SELECT, AND WE MAY ADJUST SUCH RECURRING CHARGES FROM TIME TO TIME IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS.
SUBSTITUTIONS. All of our Products are subject to availability, and we reserve the right to impose quantity limits on any Order, to reject all or part of an Order, to discontinue offering certain Products, and to substitute Products without prior notice. We strive to provide you with high-quality Products, and given market conditions beyond our control, we may be required to make substitutions from time to time. If you are not satisfied with a substitution, please contact us at support@monkeykingbets.com or (857) 210-1134.
CANCELLATION POLICY. YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE NEXT DATE OF BILLING ("BILL DATE") BY ACCESSING YOUR ACCOUNT OR BY EMAILING support@monkeykingbets.com OR CALLING (857) 210-1134. THE CANCELLATION REQUEST WILL BE PROCESSED FOR THE NEXT SCHEDULED BILL DATE. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL CHARGES (INCLUDING ANY APPLICABLE TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES) INCURRED WITH RESPECT TO ANY ORDER PROCESSED PRIOR TO THE CANCELLATION OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION.
C. Gifts.
You may have the ability to purchase: (i) non-subscription services, (ii) gift cards, and (iii) recurring monthly Subscriptions for other people through the Services (collectively, “Gifts”). Gifts are not refundable or redeemable for cash unless required by applicable law. Gifts must be redeemed for purchases through the Services in accordance with our then-current procedures for redemption, which may require the recipient to create their own account and agree to these Terms in order to redeem the Gift. GIFTS THAT ARE MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE SUBJECT TO THE AUTO-RENEWAL TERMS AND THE CANCELLATION POLICY IN 4(B).
D. Payment and Billing Information.
By providing a credit card or other payment method that we accept, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the designated payment method and that you authorize us (or our third-party payment processor(s)) to charge your payment method for all charges you incur for the purchase of any Subscriptions or other Products (including any applicable taxes and other charges) (each such purchase, an “Order”). You are responsible for, and agree to pay, all such charges. If we or our third-party payment processor(s) cannot obtain authorization for charges to your payment method or if any amounts you authorize us to charge to your payment method are reversed or charged back for any reason, we may, at our option, in addition to any other remedies: cancel or suspend any undelivered portion of your Orders, make second and/or subsequent attempts to charge your payment method, and/or use any other lawful means to collect payment on any outstanding amounts due to us. You will remain responsible for paying all applicable charges for all Orders and Gifts. You agree to provide and keep current a valid payment method. However, your failure to do so shall not constitute cancellation of any Order. In the event you want to change or update payment information associated with your Monkey King Bets account, you can do so at any time by logging into your account and editing your payment information, or by calling (857) 210-1134.
Note: Monkey King Bets uses the Squarespace platform and uses Stripe to process payments. You may see “Squarespace” or “Stripe” on your payment card statement.
E. Pricing and Availability.
All prices shown via the Services are in U.S. dollars. Any applicable taxes and other charges, if any, are additional. We reserve the right to change our Subscription and other Product offerings, and to adjust prices as we may determine in our sole discretion, at any time and without notice; provided, however, that if we change the amounts or other charges associated with your then-current Subscription(s), we will provide advance notice of such changes via one of the means described in Section 3. We will not, however, be able to notify you of changes in any applicable taxes prior to such changes becoming effective.
We will collect applicable sales tax on Products shipped to the states for which we determine we have a duty to collect sales tax. If an item is subject to sales tax, you agree that the amount of taxes shown at checkout may be adjusted. Several factors may cause this, such as variances between processor programs and changes in tax rates.

6. Responsible Gambling.
Monkey King Bets is committed to promoting responsible gambling.

We do not facilitate or provide any betting services, and we do not accept any bets or wagers.

Any decisions you make based on the information provided by Monkey King Bets are your own responsibility. If you choose to engage in sports betting, please do so responsibly and ensure that it is legal in your jurisdiction.
If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, we encourage you to seek help. The National Council on Problem Gambling provides a confidential helpline available 24/7 at 1-800-522-4700, or visit their website at www.ncpgambling.org.
