Through its website www.efashion-paris.com (hereinafter, the "Site"), Easy Line offers:

to Wholesalers-Sellers of men's, women's, and children's ready-to-wear, leather goods, footwear, and fashion accessories, who have previously signed an intermediation contract with Easy Line, the possibility to display and sell their items on the Site (hereinafter, the "Items");

It is expressly recalled that Easy Line acts solely as an intermediary and is in no way a reseller of the Items, and does not become, at any time, the owner of the Items.

2. Purpose and Scope of Application

These General Terms and Conditions of Use and Sale aim to inform Retailers-Buyers of the terms and conditions under which Wholesalers-Sellers proceed with the sale of Items on the Site and the delivery of ordered Items (hereinafter, the "General Conditions").

Any professional wholesaler wishing to sell their Items on the Site must first contact Easy Line. Indeed, these General Conditions are not intended to govern the relationship between Easy Line and the Wholesalers-Sellers.

The General Conditions apply, without restriction or reserve, to all sales of Items offered on the Site.

3.3.6.1. 30-DAY DEFERRED PAYMENT OPTION via BILLY

Certain orders placed on the Site may be paid using a thirty (30) day deferred payment solution provided by the third-party financing provider Billy. Use of this payment solution is exclusively reserved for professional Retailer-Buyers acting within the scope of their commercial activity and meeting the eligibility and creditworthiness criteria independently defined by Billy.

The acceptance or refusal of a deferred payment application is under the exclusive and discretionary competence of Billy. Easy Line does not intervene at any time in the risk analysis, approval, refusal, suspension, or termination of this financing service.

Service and technical processing fees:
The Retailer-Buyer expressly acknowledges and accepts that using the Billy deferred payment solution results in the application of specific service fees invoiced by Easy Line. These fees are collected in exchange for administrative costs, technical maintenance of application flows, and the provision of the payment infrastructure on the Site.

The amount of these service fees is fixed at 2.5% of the total amount of the order.
The exact amount of these fees is displayed clearly, distinctly, and transparently before the final validation of the order and confirmation of the choice of this payment method by the Retailer-Buyer.

Non-refund rules for fees:
Unless mandatory contrary legal provisions apply between professionals:

The 2.5% service fees related to deferred payment are definitively acquired by Easy Line and remain strictly non-refundable once the transaction is validated by Billy and the order is confirmed on the Site.
These fees remain fully due and retained by Easy Line in the event of cancellation of the order after its validation, transportation disputes, claims, or the exercise of the right to return Items (whether it is a return with or without defect as referred to in Articles 3.3.3 and 3.3.4).

However, the service fees will not be applied to or required from the Retailer-Buyer solely in the following cases:

In the event of a proven technical failure of the payment prior to order confirmation;
In the event of a final refusal to grant deferred payment by Billy during order placement.

Independence of obligations and exclusion of liability:
The Retailer-Buyer acknowledges that the 30-day payment due dates, direct debit methods, collection procedures, as well as any late payment penalties or default interest, fall within the direct and exclusive contractual relationship between the Retailer-Buyer and Billy. By opting for this method of payment, the Retailer-Buyer unreservedly accepts Billy's own general terms and conditions.

Easy Line acts solely as a technical intermediary for connecting parties and does not itself provide any credit, financing, loan, or payment institution service within the meaning of the French Monetary and Financial Code. Any claim or dispute regarding the terms of this third-party deferred financing must be sent directly to Billy's support.
