Terms of service
These terms govern use of themassis at themassis.com. By creating an account or signing in you agree to them, the Privacy Policy, the Information Security Policy, and the Data Retention and Disposal Policy. The product prepares journal entries from Shopify payouts; posting to QuickBooks Online remains a human decision.
1. The service
themassis splits Shopify payouts, drafts balanced QuickBooks Online journal entries through a clearing account, and holds exceptions for accountant review. You may optionally connect a bank account through Plaid so deposits can be matched. It is a bookkeeping aid, not a substitute for a licensed accountant, tax adviser, or legal advice, and not a bank or payment processor.
2. Accounts and roles
You must provide a working account email and keep credentials secret. Use unique users; do not share logins. You represent that you have authority to connect each Shopify store, QuickBooks company, and bank account you link.
- Merchant — may connect store and books, view payouts and status. Cannot approve or post journals.
- Accountant — may review exceptions, approve or reject drafts, and post to QuickBooks.
3. Review and accuracy
Nothing posts to QuickBooks Online without approval from an authorized operator. You (or your accountant) must verify entries before posting. themassis does not warrant that every draft is complete or correct for your chart of accounts, tax position, or reporting period. Unbalanced drafts are held, not posted.
4. Connections — Shopify, QuickBooks, Plaid
When you connect a provider you authorize themassis to use that provider’s API on your behalf, subject to that provider’s terms. You may disconnect at any time in the app or by writing to [email protected].
Plaid. Bank login happens inside Plaid Link. themassis never collects or stores bank usernames, passwords, PINs, or MFA codes. We store an encrypted Plaid access token and item id, and transaction data for the deposit account you selected, only to match Shopify payouts. On disconnect we revoke the item at Plaid and delete our token copy within 24 hours. You will not attempt to capture institution credentials, modify Plaid Link, or use End User Data except as this service provides.
5. Acceptable use
Use the service only for stores and books you are authorized to operate. You must not access another merchant’s data; interfere with or reverse-engineer connection flows beyond ordinary use; store or transmit bank login credentials through themassis; use the service for any unlawful purpose; resell End User Data; or circumvent posting approval.
6. Customer data, license, and security
You retain ownership of your payout data and books. You grant themassis a limited license to process that data solely to provide the service, secure it, and comply with law. We do not sell it. We will maintain the safeguards in the Information Security Policy, including encryption of tokens, tenant isolation, and the Plaid 12-hour Security Breach notice.
7. Privacy and retention
Collection, use, sharing, retention, and deletion are described in the Privacy Policy and the Data Retention and Disposal Policy, which are incorporated into these terms.
8. Fees, IP, disclaimer, liability
Paid plans are billed as presented at signup. themassis retains all rights in the software and mark. The service is provided as-is. To the extent permitted by law, themassis is not liable for lost profits, posting errors you or your accountant approve, or outages of Shopify, Intuit, Plaid, Stripe, or your bank. Aggregate liability is limited to the fees you paid us for the three months before the claim, except for liability that cannot be limited by law and our obligation to notify and reasonably contain a Security Breach involving your data.
9. Term and contact
You may stop using the product and request deletion via [email protected]. We may suspend access for breach or risk to End User Data. themassis · themassis.com · [email protected] · [email protected]
