When Joom launches new terms of this Agreement, the new terms shall come into force as the Merchant presses the button “Agree”.

In case there are any amounts due and they have not been paid as provided in this clause and within the period specified, Merchant shall notify Joom via email or other means specified in these Terms or available in the Merchant’s account.
