Payment Collection Policy

As Search Monkey provides a bill-through service for sponsored listings, the company takes a significant credit risk for each and every Client.

If for any reason, Client’s payment method is not available, Search Monkey reserves the right to immediately and temporarily turn off the web site, pay-per-click ads, sponsored listings and ongoing or then current production, reporting, or support Services being provided to Client account. If the payment is not received, Search Monkey reserves the right to terminate the Agreement in full and retain ownership of the web site, or other Services rendered or provided, until such time the account has been paid in full.
