3.4. These terms and conditions govern the relationship between us and you for the provision of the Payment Services by us to you. This Agreement also contains important warnings and information that may affect your rights and your ability to recover your money. By activating your Account, you shall be deemed to have accepted and fully understood the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement and you agree to comply with these by your use of the Card and/or by indicating your acceptance.

3.5. Your Card is not a credit card and is not issued by a bank. The Card is a prepaid card. The Card is not connected in any way to any other account. The Card is not for resale. The Card will remain the property of Transact Network Limited and must be surrendered upon demand. The Card is nontransferable and it may be canceled, repossessed, or revoked at any time without prior notice subject to applicable law.

3.6. Your Payment Services will not be activated unless we have been provided with the required information so that we may identify you and can comply with all applicable KYC and anti-money laundering requirements. We shall keep records of such information and documents in accordance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

3.7. Only your Employer may reload the Card subject to the limits provided by the Fees & Limits Schedule. We reserve the right to vary these limits and to decline any Reload at any time.

3.8. Reference to a currency (e.g. Euros € or Sterling £) shall mean that amount or the local currency equivalent in which your Card is denominated.

3.9. The Available Balance on your Card and/or Account will not earn any interest.

3.10. The Payment Services are prepaid payment services and not a credit or bank product, you must therefore ensure that you have a sufficient Available Balance to pay for each purchase, payment or cash withdrawal that you make using the Payment Services (including value added tax and any other taxes, charges and fees that are applicable). If for any reason a Transaction is processed and the Transaction amount exceeds the Available Balance, you must repay us the amount of such excess immediately and we shall be entitled to stop any existing or subsequent Transactions from proceeding.

3.11. This Agreement does not give you any rights against a System, its affiliates or any third party.

3.12. Only persons over 18 years of age are entitled to register for the Payment Services. However, if you are the Cardholder you may allow the Payment Services to be accessed by your own child (or a child of whom you are the legal guardian) who is under 18 years of age in accordance with clause 5.8. Transactions by persons under 18 years of age may not be allowed by some Merchants. In all cases, you shall be responsible for any use of the Payment Services by such persons.

4. Service Limits

Transactions may be restricted by Card type, individual usage patterns and payment risk profiles. For anti-money laundering and anti-fraud reasons, we reserve our rights to change particular payment restrictions (including from those published or included herein) without notice and to the extent required to safeguard your Account and meet our regulatory obligations.

5. Use of the Payment Services

5.1. You must activate your Card before it can be used. You can activate your card at any time by calling 1-866-431-8983 or by visiting www.oceanpay.com/crystaleu. You may need to provide personal information in order to verify your identity.

5.2. You can use the Payment Services up to the amount of the Available Balance for Transactions at Merchants of the relevant System. If the Available Balance is insufficient to pay for a Transaction, some Merchants will not permit you to combine use of a Card or Account with other payment methods.

5.3. Your Card can be used to make cash withdrawals from ATMs and banks who agree to provide this service, as listed in the Fees & Limits Schedule (subject to any maximum set by the relevant ATM operator or bank), unless we inform you otherwise.

5.4. The value of each Transaction and the amount of any fees or charges payable by you under this Agreement will be deducted from the Available Balance.

5.5. Once a Transaction is Authorised it cannot be withdrawn. Within the European Economic Area (EEA), we will ensure transfer of the payment to the payment service provider within one Business Day. If the payment service provider of the Merchant is located outside the EEA, we will effect payment as soon as possible.

5.6. In order to protect you and us from fraud, Merchants and ATM operators will seek electronic authorisation before processing any Transaction. If a Merchant or ATM operator is unable to get an electronic authorisation, they may not be able to process your Transaction.

5.7. We may refuse to authorise any use of the Payment Services which could breach these terms and conditions or if we have reasonable grounds for suspecting that you or a third party have committed or are planning to commit fraud or any other illegal or un-permitted use of the Payment Services.

5.8. The Payment Services will incur fees based upon the Fees & Limits Schedule. A Transaction Fee is payable in respect of each Transaction. A Cash Withdrawal Fee is payable in respect of cash withdrawals made at ATMs using your Card. In addition, your withdrawal may also be subject to any applicable fees, rules and regulations of the relevant ATM operator or bank. It is your responsibility to check whether any such additional fees apply, as they cannot be refunded once the cash has been withdrawn.

5.9. As the Cardholder, you may apply to us for 1 Companion Card, for use by a Companion Cardholder on your account. Companion Cardholders whom are your children or you are their legal guardian must be 13 years old or older and Companion Cardholders whom are not your children or you are not their legal guardian must be 18 years or older. It is a condition of any registration for a Companion Card that you, as the Cardholder, acknowledge that we accept no responsibility or liability of any kind whatsoever for use of any Companion Card by any Companion Cardholder for illegal Transactions and/or Transactions not authorised by you. If you successfully register, we will send you a Companion Card. Upon receipt of the Companion Card, you may give the Companion Card to the Companion Cardholder for their use, subject to:

5.10. You (the Cardholder) will remain responsible for the use of the Payment Services, and for any fees and charges incurred by the Companion Cardholder, and you will continue to be regarded as the holder of any funds already or subsequently loaded on the Account. The use of a Card in relation to which a Companion Cardholder has been registered will be regarded as confirmation that you have provided the Companion Cardholder with these Terms and Conditions and they have accepted them. You will remain responsible for any Transactions, cash withdrawals from ATMs, fees and charges incurred by your Companion Cardholder.

5.11. Your ability to use or access the Payment Services may occasionally be interrupted, for example if we need to carry out maintenance on our systems. Please contact Customer Services via our website to notify us of any problems you are experiencing using your Card or Account and we will promptly resolve any problem.

If you instruct us to make a transfer from your Account to another Account, the requested amount will be debited from your account and credited to the account you have instructed us to transfer the funds to. You will incur a Card to Card Transfer Fee for each transaction.

6. Condition of Use at Certain Merchants

6.1. In some circumstances, we or Merchants may require you to have an Available Balance in excess of the Transaction amount. For example, at restaurants you may be required to have up to 20% more on your Card than the value of the bill to allow for any gratuity or service charge added by the restaurant or you.

6.2. In some circumstances, Merchants may require verification that your Available Balance will cover the Transaction amount and initiate a hold on your Available Balance in that amount, examples include rental cars. In the event a Merchant places a pre-authorisation on your Account, you will not have access to these funds until the Transaction is completed or released by the Merchant which may take up to 30 days.

6.3. If you use your Card at a fueling station, subject to Merchant acceptance, your Card may need to be pre-authorised for €75or more. If you do not use the whole pre-authorisation or do not have Available Balance to obtain a pre-authorisation, it is possible that the pre-authorised amount will be held for up to 30 days before becoming available to you again.

The maximum cumulative amount that may be withdrawn from an ATM per day is €2,510. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from a participating bank (over the counter) per day is €500.

We accept no liability if a Merchant refuses to accept payment using our Payment Services.

You will need this PIN in order to make cash withdrawals from an ATM or at a bank.

7.4. If you forget your PIN, you should go to www.oceanpay.com/crystaleu and select the "Customer Support/Service" link. You can also call Customer Service at the phone number listed on the back of your card and a representative will assist you.

The Account address is also the address to which we will send any correspondence.

8.2. The Cardholder must notify us within 7 days of any change in the Account address or your other contact details. You can notify us by updating your profile online or by contacting Cardholder Services who may require you to confirm such notification in writing.
