Electronic Money can be purchased by Card (or any other means accepted by the Issuer), in one or more instalments.
To carry out such a transaction, You must Login to the Website and place a money transfer order via the dedicated Payment Page. For any payment, You may be asked to enter a single-use code on the Payment Page, which You will receive on Your mobile phone. By using the Payment Page and, where applicable, entering the single-use code, You are giving Your consent to the Payment Transaction.

The Issuer may refuse any payment at its sole discretion and without giving rise to any right to compensation. The transaction is carried out by Your Card issuer. Any dispute concerning such transfer must be notified to Your Card issuer. The Issuer is not entitled to cancel such a transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, You may receive a Reimbursement of Electronic Money in accordance with article 4.4.

The registration of Electronic Money in the User’s name is subject to the actual receipt of funds by the Issuer less the costs agreed in the Financial Conditions.

In the event that the transfer of funds is cancelled by the Card issuer following a dispute, for whatever reason, the Issuer may, upon receipt of the information, suspend or cancel any Payment Transaction, close the Account concerned, debit, at any time, the Account for the amount of Electronic Money corresponding to the funds of the cancelled transfer and recover the amount due from the User by any means.

The Electronic Money is stored for an indefinite duration on the User’s Account by the Issuer under the agreed Financial Conditions.
The Electronic Money purchased is credited to the User’s Account, following the receipt of the funds transferred by Card (or any other means accepted by the Issuer). The amount to be credited is equal to such funds less the corresponding costs as provided in the Financial Conditions.

Upon the User’s Order, the Electronic Money corresponding to the amount of the Payment Transaction or Reimbursement is debited from its Account and the related costs, as provided in the Financial Conditions.

The Issuer is entitled, at any time, to reimburse an amount of available Electronic Money on the Account equal to the charges due and payable, as provided in the Financial Conditions.

4.3 The use of Electronic Money to carry out a payment Transaction
Before transmitting an Order, the User must be sure to have a sufficient amount of Electronic Money available to cover the Payment Transaction amount and the related costs as agreed in the Financial Conditions.

Where appropriate, the User must acquire a sufficient amount of Electronic Money in accordance with article 4.1 before an Order can be legitimately transmitted to the Issuer for execution. The Electronic Money may be issued and stored by the User, provided that the corresponding funds are duly received by the Issuer.

As such, if the amount of available Electronic Money, at the date of execution of the Order by the Issuer, is lower than the amount of the Payment Transaction (fees included), the Order is automatically refused by the Issuer. The information about this refusal is made available to the User on the Website. This refusal may give rise to additional fees in accordance with the Financial Conditions.

The transmission terms of an Order by the User are as follows:

The User completes the relevant form on the Payment Page and, where appropriate, provides the supporting documents requested by the Issuer. The form should include the following components: the Payment Transaction amount; the currency, which may only be the currency of the Electronic Money; the details required to identify the Recipient; the date of execution of the Order; and any other required information. The User then gives his/her consent to the Order and the Order becomes irrevocable when the User clicks on the validation tab on the form. The User then receives a confirmation email on a date referred as the ‘Date of Receipt’.

In certain cases, the User may fill in a single form containing the purchase of Electronic Money as provided in article 4.1 and an Order in compliance with the previous paragraph.

Execution of the Order

The Electronic Money is debited from the User Account to be credited to the Recipient Account, following the User instructions. As such, the Recipient may open an Account in accordance with article 3.2 in order to receive the Electronic Money if he/she is not already a User. Where appropriate, the funds corresponding to the Electronic Money transferred to the Recipient can be directly reimbursed to a bank account or a payment account opened in the name of the Recipient upon the receipt by the Issuer of the relevant account details. For this purpose, the Recipient must provide the IBAN number and SWIFT code of his/her bank or payment account as well as his/her address. This account must be opened by a bank or a payment institution, based in a European Union Member State or in a State party to the agreement on the European Economic Area.

It is agreed between the Parties that the Payment Transaction will be executed, at the latest, on the next Business Day following the Date of Receipt if the Recipient has an Account. If the Recipient does not have an Account, the Payment Transaction will be executed as soon as an Account is opened or on the date the Issuer receives the bank or payment account details of the Recipient to whom the funds are due.
If the Date of Receipt is not a Business Day, the Issuer will be deemed to have received the Order on the following Business Day.

This request must be submitted to the Issuer within 8 weeks of the execution of the Order on the Account. The Issuer must reimburse the User within a period of 10 Business Days after receipt of the request, if the latter proves justified, taking into account applicable laws, and whether the request consists of all the components necessary for examination by the Issuer.

The latter will provide the necessary information in order to determine the circumstances of the Payment Transaction. The Issuer reserves the right not to reimburse the fees resulting from the Payment Transactions concerned.

You acknowledge and agree that the Issuer will not be responsible to You for any loss or damage You suffer in connection with the use of the Issuer's service where such loss or damage is caused by Your acts or omissions or by those of a third party including, but not limited to:
(a) Your failure to provide the Issuer with accurate, complete and up to date information; or
(b) You losing or allowing third parties to gain access to your Login and password.

The Issuer will take reasonable care to ensure that any data it holds in relation to You and Your Accounts is secure.

If there is no response or use of available Electronic Money within this period, or in the event of the death of the User, the Issuer may close the Account and keep it active for the sole purpose of the Reimbursement of Electronic Money.
