Hannabon Terms of Service
Effective Date: September 18, 2026
Last Updated: September 30, 2026
Welcome to Hannabon! By signing up for a Hannabon Account, publishing an Experience, or using the services of Hannabon as a Player, Creator, or Merchant, you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (the "Terms of Service").
These Terms of Service are a legally binding agreement between you and Hannabon (the "Platform"). The service provides a User-Generated Content and Community Platform allowing users to build, play, and monetize interactive Experiences using our virtual loyalty currency ("Bons"). On the other side, the service provides a commerce platform enabling creators to operate as true Merchants, selling access to their games, assets, and virtual items directly to consumers for real-world dollars.
Please advise all information presented as summaries are not legally binding. Please read the Terms of Service carefully before agreeing.
Section 23 contains an arbitration agreement and a class action waiver. Because the Service provides you with freedom to monetize your creations, the Service also passes on responsibility to the user.
1. Account Terms, Age, and Eligibility
You are legally responsible for your Account. If your desire is to play, or trade, games using Bons, you must be 13. If you want to sell your games for real-world dollars, you must be 18 (or the age of majority) and take full legal responsibility as a business owner.
1.1 Player Accounts: The Platform is intended for a general audience. You must be at least 13 years old to hold a basic Hannabon Account. If we learn that an Account belongs to a person under 13, we will close the Account and delete the personal information.
1.2 Merchant Accounts (Real-World Sales): To utilize Hannabon's real currency commerce features, you must be the older of: (i) 18 years, or (ii) at least the age of majority in the jurisdiction where you reside.
You confirm that you are receiving commerce Services provided by Hannabon for the purposes of carrying on a business activity.
1.3 Primary Email: You acknowledge that Hannabon will use the email address you provide as the primary method for communication. You agree to monitor this address with due diligence.
1.4 Account Security: You are responsible for keeping your password secure. Hannabon cannot, and will not be, liable for any loss or damage from your failure to maintain the security of your Account.
2. Your Responsibilities
2.1 License: Hannabon grants you a personal, limited, revocable license to use the services provided to create gaming environments, worlds, and interactive environments ("Experiences").
2.2 User Responsibility: You acknowledge and agree that Hannabon is not a publisher or a curated marketplace. Any contract of sale made through the Services, whether for Bons or real-world dollars, is directly and only between you and the customer. By using the platform, you accept that you are the seller and merchant of record for all legal sales through the Services.
2.3 Legal Burden: You are completely responsible for the creation and operation of your Hannabon Storefront, your Materials, the games you sell, and all aspects of the transactions between you and your customers. This includes, but is not limited to: determining and collecting taxes, managing refunds, handling fraudulent transactions, maintaining regulatory compliance, and answering for alleged or actual violations of applicable laws (including consumer protection and copyright laws).
2.4 Public Disclosures: If you sell Experiences for real dollars, you acknowledge and agree to provide public-facing contact information, terms of service, and a refund policy on your Hannabon Storefront.
2.5 Indemnity: As the service does not restrict nor curate your ability to monetize, you expressly agree that Hannabon bears no responsibility for your legal infractions. If you are sued for copyright infringement, consumer fraud, or any other claim arising from your Experiences, you will defend and indemnify Hannabon entirely.
3. Bons, Virtual Items, and Loyalty Rewards
3.1 Nature of Bons: "Bons" is the platform-wide virtual token used on the Play side of Hannabon. By using the platform, the user recognizezs Bons is not real currency. It is not legal tender, a security, a commodity, or a crypto-asset. It has no cash value and cannot be exchanged for real-world money under any circumstances.
3.2 License: When you buy or receive Bons, you obtain a limited, personal, non-transferable, and revocable license to use them within the Platform.
3.3 Hannabon Loyalty Store: Hannabon allows users to redeem accrued Bons in commemorative merchandise stores. Bons may be exchanged for physical merchandise (such as Hannabon-branded mugs, apparel, and limited-edition commemoratives). The conversion rate of Bons to physical items is determined solely by Hannabon and may change at any time without notice.
Shipping restrictions may apply based on your geographic location.
3.4 No Off-Platform Trading: You must not buy, sell, exchange, or auction Bons or Virtual Items for real-world money outside of the official Hannabon Commerce Storefronts.
4. Real-Dollar Commerce, Payment Gateways & Fees
4.1 Fees: If you upgrade to a Hannabon Merchant Account, you will pay the applicable subscription fees ("Subscription Fees") and any transaction fees relating to the value of sales made through your Storefront ("Transaction Fees"). All payments are not required to be in your local currency.
4.2 Payment Processing: Real-dollar payments on Hannabon are processed exclusively through our integrations with Stripe, Inc. Your use of these payment providers is subject to their respective terms of service.
4.3 Excluded Payment Methods: Hannabon is a digital software platform. We explicitly do not support, endorse, or integrate with Point of Sale (POS) hardware, in-person physical sales, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Meta Pay, or Amazon Pay. Any attempt to bypass our checkout system to implement these third-party gateways is a breach of these Terms.
4.4 Billing Cycle: Subscription Fees are paid in advance and billed in 30-day intervals. If we cannot process your payment within 28 days of our initial attempt, Hannabon may freeze your Storefront and revoke your access to the real-currency commerce features.
