PART C: Regulated payment processing services
14. HOW CAN I PERFORM TRANSACTION?
14.1 Your E-Wallet is an account which enables you to perform Transactions in accordance with the terms of this Clause 14. Your E-Wallet is not a deposit account, and you will not earn any interest on the funds held in the E-Wallet.
14.2 Your E-Wallet is denominated in the currencies selected by you.
14.3 Each Instruction effected under the terms of this Agreement shall be an individual contract and we may refuse to perform a Transaction without specifying a reason (e.g., because we have a concern regarding our ability to comply with our Compliance Obligations). In order for us to perform the Transaction, each Instruction must contain the following information:
14.3.1 Beneficiary bank account details.
14.3.2 Currency in which the Transaction must be made.
14.3.3 Transaction Amount.
14.3.4 such other details as we may reasonably require from time-time-time including but not limited to additional information pertaining to the Beneficiary bank.
14.4 Once we have received the Instruction, we will confirm:
14.4.1 the foreign exchange rate which we intend to apply to the Transaction.
14.4.2 the Transaction Amount.
14.4.3 any additional terms which we intend to apply to the Transaction.
14.5 Upon placing an Instruction, we may provide you with a Transaction Confirmation, which we may provide in a single communication.
14.6 We will not allow you to perform any Transaction out of your E-Wallet if this would put your E-Wallet into a negative balance. You should therefore ensure that you have sufficient funds in your E-Wallet before providing an Instruction. It is your responsibility to ensure that the E-Wallet contains sufficient immediately available funds at least equal to the Transaction Amount required to enable us to process a Transaction in accordance with the Instruction. Failure to ensure the E-Wallet contains sufficient funds may result in one or more Transactions not being processed.
14.7 Please note that other costs, taxes, or charges may apply to you that are not charged by us and/or won’t be paid through us. You are responsible for paying such costs, taxes, or charges where these apply. It is your responsibility to determine what, if any, taxes apply to the Transactions you make or receive, and it is your responsibility to collect, report and remit the correct amount of tax to the appropriate tax authorities. If we are required to withhold any taxes, we may deduct such taxes from amounts otherwise owed to you and pay them to the appropriate authority.
14.8 You can provide an Instruction by logging into the App (using your log-in credentials) and follow the instructions to submit your Instruction.
14.9 When placing an Instruction, you will be required to provide us with the requisite details that you will be prompted to give which will include the unique identifier in accordance with which we will process the Transaction.
14.10 A Transaction will be deemed to have been authorised by you if the relevant Instruction has been:
14.10.1 in accordance with this Agreement and any applicable security procedures; or
14.10.2 pursuant to any specific arrangements agreed with you and governed by separate terms and conditions.
14.11 We reserve the right to stop the use of any means or method (including access to the App) you use to provide us with Instructions if we have reasonable grounds to believe there is a concern relating to the security of the payment instrument or the suspicion of unauthorised or fraudulent use of the payment instrument. Before stopping the use of any payment instrument, we will inform you that we intend to stop such use and give our reasons for doing so, unless it is not reasonably practicable to do so, in which case we will inform you immediately afterwards. In either case, we will inform you in the manner in which we consider most appropriate in the circumstances and will not be obliged to inform you where doing so would compromise our reasonable security measures or otherwise be unlawful. You may request that the use of the payment instrument is no longer stopped by following the notification procedure referred to in the paragraph below, but we will not be obliged to accept your request until after the reasons for stopping its use cease to exist.
14.12 We reserve the right to refuse any Instruction which does not satisfy all the relevant conditions as set out in this Agreement or the execution of which would be unlawful, or otherwise contravene any Applicable Laws, and we shall not be liable to you for any such refusal. Unless such notification would be unlawful, we will notify you in the manner in which we consider most appropriate in the circumstances of the fact of refusal, (if possible) the reasons for the refusal and (where it is possible to provide reasons for the refusal and those reasons relate to factual matters) the procedure you may use to rectify any factual errors that led to the refusal.
14.13 Where you instruct us to process a Transaction from your E-Wallet, the Transaction Amount will be deducted by us from your E-Wallet balance. You must ensure that you have sufficient funds in your E-Wallet to cover the amount of any Transaction you want to make using the funds available in your E-Wallet. If you do not have sufficient funds in your E-Wallet, we reserve the right to postpone the execution date of the Transaction and we may impose a charge to cover the costs of us doing so.
14.14 You can check the balance held in your E-Wallet by logging into the App. Key information relating to Transactions performed using the E-Wallet, including all fees and any other charges applied to the E-Wallet and Transaction history will be made available at any time, and in accordance with Applicable Laws, by logging into the App and may also be downloaded by you as a report which can be stored and reproduced in an unchanged manner.
14.15 Each Transaction processed using funds available within the E-Wallet will be given a unique Transaction ID which will be set out in the Transaction history. You must quote this Transaction ID when communicating with a MarTrust Representative about a particular Transaction.
15. HOW WILL THE FUNDS BE SENT TO THE BENEFICIARY?
15.1 The payment method will be in accordance with the Instruction subject always to the availability and processing of the payment method in the destination country.
16. WHEN WILL FUNDS BE RECEIVED BY THE BENEFICIARY?
16.1 The Execution Time for Transactions will be three (3) Business Days from MarTrust sending the Transaction funds.
16.2 We cannot be responsible for any delays to the Beneficiary bank’s (or their correspondent bank’s) processing of a Transaction and cannot guarantee that the Beneficiary’s bank account will make the funds available to the Beneficiary on the day that it receives the Transaction Amount.
17. CAN I CANCEL OR ALTER THE DETAILS OF A PAYMENT INSTRUCTION?
17.1 If you wish to recall a payment Transaction after the time for cancelling or altering a payment Transaction has lapsed, we will make all reasonable endeavors to assist you with a recall. However, we will not be liable in the event that a recall is not possible, and we reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee for any assistance provided in connection with this Clause 17.1.
17.2 You shall indemnify and hold us harmless in full and on demand (without application of any right of set-off, deduction, abatement, counterclaim or otherwise) from any and all liabilities, claims, costs, fees, expenses, damages and losses (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit, loss of reputation and all interest, penalties and legal costs calculated on a full indemnity basis) and all other reasonable professional costs and expenses suffered or incurred by us arising out of or relating to the amending, cancelling or revoking an Instruction.
18. LIABILITY FOR INCORRECT EXECUTION AND UNAUTHORISED TRANSACTIONS
18.1 It is your responsibility to ensure that any Instruction is accurate and complete.
18.2 If you provide incorrect Beneficiary details, we will not be liable for any loss you incur, although we will use reasonable efforts to assist you in the recovery of the funds. We reserve the right to charge for any assistance provided in connection with this Clause 18.2.
18.3 In the case of a Transaction that is improperly processed due to our mistake, we shall at your request immediately refund the Transaction Amount to the E-Wallet. However, where you identify an error in an Instruction, you have up to seven (7) days from the date of the payment to notify us, after which time we will have no obligation to investigate or act upon your notification or provide a refund.
18.4 In the case of an unauthorised Transaction from the E-Wallet, we shall at your request immediately refund the Transaction Amount to the E-Wallet. We will not however be required to refund such a payment:
18.4.1 where the performance of an unauthorised Transaction arises from your failure to keep your App log-in, password or other security details safe;
18.4.2 if you fail to notify us without undue delay of any loss or misuse of a log-in or password or another event that could reasonably be expected to have compromised the security of the App and/or your E-Wallet after you have gained knowledge of such event in which case you shall remain liable for losses incurred after gaining such knowledge; or
18.4.3 if you fail to dispute and bring the unauthorised Transaction to our attention within seven (7) days from the date of the Transaction.
19. LIMITING USE OF YOUR E-WALLET
19.1 We may suspend access to the E-Wallet or otherwise restrict its functionality on reasonable grounds relating to the security of the E-Wallet or any of its security features or if we reasonably suspect that an unauthorised or fraudulent use of the E-Wallet has occurred or that any of its security features have been compromised.
19.2 We will notify you of any suspension or restriction and of the reasons for such suspension or restriction in advance or, where we are unable to do so, immediately after the suspension or restriction has been imposed, unless that would be unlawful or compromise our reasonable security interests.
