Advisor & Agency Terms & Conditions

Your terms and conditions show up in three client-facing places: proposals, invoices, and service agreements. JourneyFuse resolves which terms to use the same way in all three, so an advisor manages their language once and it stays consistent everywhere.

There are two levels of terms:

• Agency terms — your workspace default, set by an owner or admin. Used by everyone on the team unless an advisor overrides it.
• Advisor terms — an individual advisor's personal terms, which replace the agency default on the documents they create.

Agency Terms (Owner / Admin)

Go to Settings → Agency → Terms & Conditions.

• Terms blocks — reusable named pieces of legal text (payment authorization, cancellation policy, travel insurance, etc.). Flag the blocks that should be your default and they're combined, in order, into your agency-wide terms.
• Terms & Conditions URL — optionally link to a terms page instead of rendering the block text inline.
• Auto-include — attach your default terms to every new proposal and invoice automatically.
• Require acceptance — make clients confirm the terms (checkbox or typed signature) before paying or accepting.
• Default travel insurance decline wording — the acknowledgement a client checks when they decline optional travel insurance. Set it once here to match your terms, and every new proposal starts with this wording. You can still tweak it on an individual proposal's Travel Insurance section, and leaving it blank uses the standard wording.

These defaults flow onto every team member's documents unless that advisor sets their own.

Advisor Terms (Each Team Member)

Any team member can set personal terms under Settings → Profile → My Terms & Conditions.

• Add your terms text and, optionally, a link to your full terms page.
• Once set, your terms replace the agency default on the proposals, invoices, and service agreements you create — they don't affect anyone else's documents.
• Use Clear to remove your personal terms and go back to the agency default.

This is ideal for teams where advisors operate under their own brand or legal entity and need their own language on client documents.

Host Agencies: Control Whether Advisors Inherit Your Terms

If your agency terms name your agency or assert that the advisor is doing business on your behalf, those terms may not be appropriate for independent (1099) advisors. You can stop them from inheriting your agency terms.

Go to Settings → Agency → Terms & Conditions and find Advisor terms & conditions:

• Inherit agency terms — advisors fall back to your agency default when they haven't set their own. This is the standard behavior.
• Their own only — advisors use their own terms or none at all. Your agency terms never appear on their proposals, invoices, or service agreements.

Owners and admins always keep the agency terms on their own documents, since those describe the agency itself.

When Their own only is set, an advisor who hasn't added personal terms will see a blank terms area, and the Send action on a service agreement is disabled until they add their own language — so nothing is sent without terms in place.

How a Document Decides Which Terms to Use

For every proposal, invoice, and service agreement, the terms are resolved in this order:

1. The advisor's personal terms, if they've set any.
2. Otherwise, the agency default — unless the workspace is set to Their own only and the advisor is not an owner or admin, in which case no agency terms are applied.

The resolved terms are locked into the document when it's created or sent, so what the client sees and signs stays fixed even if the underlying defaults change later.

A Note on Forms

Intake forms with a signature/consent field set to use the agency terms stay tied to the agency, because that consent is configured on the form template itself rather than on an advisor's document. If you use the Their own only option and also collect signed consent through forms, set that consent text on the form directly.
