The Company is not a MTO and by itself does not provide, process, or facilitate the remittance of funds in any capacity.

The Company acts solely as the partner of the issuer of prepaid payment instruments (“Card”) to Receivers. The role of the Company is strictly limited to:

  • enabling issuance of and managing the Card on which remitted funds may be credited by the MTO; and
  • enabling cardholders to use the Card at selected merchants for eligible transactions and benefits.

 

The Company does not:

  • initiate, process, or settle any cross-border remittance transaction; or
  • control or guarantee the timing, accuracy, or completion of the remittance, including the sending, receipt, or settlement of funds; or
  • conduct Know Your Customer (“KYC”) or Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) checks for any remittance transaction. Such compliance for conducting any KYC or AML checks is the sole responsibility of the MTO as per applicable laws. The Company shall conduct KYC check only for the purpose of enabling issuance of the Card.

The Company shall not be responsible or liable for:

  • any delay, non-execution, or failure of the remittance transaction, including settlement periods, reversals, or rejections; or
  • the accuracy or completeness of information provided by the sender or Receiver to the MTO;
  • any KYC/AML verification, regulatory reporting, or compliance obligations in relation to the remittance, which are the responsibility of the MTO.

The use of Remittance Services by the Receiver is subject to the separate terms and conditions, privacy policies, and operational procedures of (a) the respective MTO; and (b) the Card issuer entity. You are advised to review and accept such terms before initiating or receiving any remittance. The Company does not control or endorse the terms, policies, or practices of any MTO and/or the Card issuer entity.

In addition to acceptance of these Terms, if you intend to avail the Remittance Services as a sender, the same is subject to (a) you creating an account with the corresponding Company entity; and (b) your acceptance of the terms of use and privacy policy of such corresponding Company entity.

The responsibility for ensuring the correctness of all remittance-related information rests solely with you and the MTO.

The Company shall not be liable for any loss, delay, or failure in the receipt of remitted funds or the crediting of such funds to your card or account, where such loss, delay, or failure results from inaccurate, incomplete, or erroneous information provided by you or the MTO, or from any act or omission of the MTO in processing the remittance transaction.
