    2. You do not need to register for a Corporate Account in order to visit most areas of our Platform. However, to use the Services and access the restricted areas of our Platform you will need to register and set up a Corporate Account with us.
    3. Although Swipe International is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, we are not regulated in the same way as a bank. As an electronic money institution, we hold your money in secure safeguarded bank accounts. Safeguarding segregates your funds from our own by placing your funds in a separate account. This protects your funds and ensures your funds can only be used to complete the payment as instructed, or should that be impossible, the funds are returned to the original payer.
    4. We will use reasonable care and skill in providing the Services to you, but you should bear in mind that your payments do not carry the benefit of any interest and that our Services do not have the benefit of any government-backed insurance, guarantee or compensation scheme (for example, no compensation is available from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme if we are unable to meet our liabilities) and the relationship of Swipe with you is not that of a bank or trustee.
  4. Authorised Users
    1. As part of creating a Corporate Account, one of your directors (with legal authority to enter into binding agreements on your behalf) will notify us in writing of the names, job titles and contact details of your personnel and any direct third-party service providers that are nominated and authorised to act on your behalf to:
      1. administer and manage your use of and access to the Corporate Account and Platform (each an “Authorised User”); and
      2. Authorised Users who will act as your primary points of contact for all issues relating to your relationship with us, this Agreement and the Services (each a “Client Administrator”).
    2. You will be responsible for the actions of each Authorised User and Client Administrator. Each Authorised User and Client Administrator, can give us instructions within the scope of their authority under this Agreement. This means that if one Authorised User sends us an instruction within the scope of their authority we will act on it without checking with you or any other Authorised Users first. Therefore, you need to make sure all Authorised Users are aware of this Agreement and keep to it.
    3. You may change a Client Administrator or an Authorised User by providing us with written notice of such change. We may require you to replace any Client Administrator or Authorised User with an alternative person.

You shall review, at least annually, your personnel’s access permissions and roles in relation to the Corporate Account and Platform, and have appropriate policies and procedures in respect of how such roles are assigned to new members of staff, change for existing staff and revoked for personnel you no longer employ.
  6. Advance Payments

Where additional expenses associated with the Corporate Account emerge after the Corporate Account has been closed, we may retain the advance payment longer than 45 calendar days.

    3. You can also add funds to your Corporate Account using a debit or credit card. This can only be done by an Authorised User.

    6. Upon approval of the request for a Swipe Card, the Swipe Card will be sent to the address provided by the Client Administrator via first class post.
    7. When the Cardholder receives the Swipe Card in their name, they must sign it immediately and activate it before it can be used. More details and instructions on this will be included along with the documentation delivered with the Swipe Card.

    13. Failure to comply with clauses 10.10– 10.12 above may affect your ability to reclaim any losses. We will not reimburse you for losses in the event that we can show that a Cardholder has intentionally failed to keep their PIN safe or has acted fraudulently, negligently or with undue delay.

    3.

    4. It is solely your responsibility (and that of your Authorised Users and Client Administrators acting on your behalf) to make sure all the Payment Instruction details are accurate before submission.
    5. Providing inaccurate details will cause delays in processing your Outbound Transaction or can lead to an Outbound Transaction failing. Before you your Authorised Users or Client Administrators can submit a Payment Instruction, we will confirm the amount of any associated fees that we will charge for the Outbound Transaction (the “Transaction Fee”) (the basis on which the Transaction Fee is calculated is set out in the Fee Schedule) and a unique transaction identification number will be generated. The Transaction Fee will be deducted directly from your Corporate Account.
    6. Before you your Authorised Users or Client Administrators can submit a foreign exchange Payment Instruction, in addition to the Transaction Fee we will also confirm the foreign exchange conversion rate that will be applied to the Transaction Amount as per Clause 17 below.
    7. Once you your Authorised Users or Client Administrators confirm the foreign exchange conversion, the Platform will allow you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators to submit your Payment Instruction to us. Once the Payment Instruction is submitted, you will be deemed to have authorised this Outbound Transaction and have authorised us to execute it.
    8. Once a Payment Instruction has been submitted, we are not able to change or cancel the transaction other than under the instructions as per Clause 11.8 or the circumstances listed in Clause 12.1 below.
    9.

We may charge you a fee for withdrawing a Payment Instruction, the details of this fee will be set out in the Fee Schedule.
    10. If a Payment Instruction is submitted on a Business Day before 4pm we will process the Payment Instruction on that day. If the request is made on a non-Business Day or after 4pm, we’ll process the Payment Instruction on the next Business Day.

      1. when the future date is a Business Day, we will process the Payment Instruction on the day agreed with us;

      IssueOur response
      We carried out Payment Instructions incorrect-ly when we made an Outbound Transaction from your Corporate AccountWe will refund the amount withdrawn and any associated charges and put your Corporate Ac-count into the position it would have been in as if the incorrect Outbound Transaction had never happened.
      You, your Authorised Users or Client Adminis-trators gave us incorrect Payment InstructionsWe will make reasonable efforts to recover the payment for you but this may be beyond our control. We may also charge you a fee for help-ing you with this. If we cannot recover the payment, then we will not refund you. You should contact the Recipient’s payment service provider directly for a refund.
      An Outbound Transaction on your Payment Ac-count was not authorised by you, your Author-ised Users or Client AdministratorsWe will refund the amount withdrawn and any associated charges as soon as possible (and by no later than the end of the Business Day fol-lowing the day on which we become aware of the unauthorised Outbound Transaction). We will also put your Corporate Account into the position it would have been in as if the unau-thorised Outbound Transaction had never hap-pened.
      We have incorrectly executed Inbound Trans-actions (including where we have not credited a payment to your Corporate Account)We will immediately put your Corporate Ac-count into the position it would have been in as if the error never happened. We will not do this if the error was made by someone else, such as Faster Payments, CHAPS, Cheque and Credit Clearing or another payment services provider.
      Someone (other than us) has paid money into your Corporate Account by mistakeWe will let you know what has happened be-fore we return the funds to them. If we do not hear from you, we will deduct the money from your Corporate Account. If you disagree with the claim, we will not return the funds but the law requires us to give your information to the Sender’s payment service provider and they may also be in touch with you to recover the amount.

There might also be other situations where we will consider that you have been grossly negligent.

  17. Exchange Rates
    1. You can find details on our current foreign exchange conversion on our platform.
    2. The foreign exchange conversion rate shown while using the Services via the Platform is the rate applicable for currency conversion transactions executed on that particular date and time. The exchange rates specified while using the Services via the Platform may fluctuate from time to time in accordance with fluctuations in international exchange rate markets.
    3. Each time you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators use the Services, the applicable exchange rate, for that particular date and time, and the Transaction Fee will be shown to you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators before you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators submit the Payment Instruction. Proceeding with the Transaction at this point is entirely optional, please do so at your own discretion.
    4. When you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators initiate an Outbound Transaction, we will transfer the Transaction Amount to the Recipient at the foreign exchange rate applicable at the date and time we execute the Outbound Transaction (in accordance with Clause 7 above); as a result, the foreign exchange rate we actually apply to your Transaction Amount may be different to the foreign exchange rate specified at the time of submitting the Payment Instruction.
    5. When you pay for an Outbound Transaction in one currency and the Recipient is paid in another currency, there will be a difference between the exchange rate at which we buy foreign currency and the exchange rate provided to you.
  18. Fees, charges and interest
    1. We will charge you the applicable fees and charges set out in the Fee Schedule.
    2. If a Payment Instruction submitted to us results in Swipe becoming liable for fees or charges, such as a chargeback, you agree to reimburse us for all such fees.
    3. In order for us to collect payment from you, you authorise us to access, charge, or debit funds from, any of your chosen Payment Instruments. For example, if there are insufficient funds in your Corporate Account at the time a Payment Instruction is submitted, we may try to debit your bank account or charge your credit card at a later time.
    4. Swipe is not responsible for any charges applied by the Recipient’s payment service provider or any intermediary payment service providers resulting from the transfer of funds into the Recipient’s account. You should contact the Recipient’s payment service provider directly for details about any charges that may be applicable to the transaction.
    5. We will have no responsibility for any fees or charges you may incur by the use of a particular Payment Instrument on the Platform. These may include but are not limited to unauthorised overdraft fees imposed by banks if there are insufficient funds in your bank account or “cash advance” fees and additional interest which may be imposed by credit card providers if they treat use of the Services as a cash transaction rather than a purchase transaction.
    6. You will not be entitled to any interest from us for the period during which any funds are in your Corporate Account or for any other period.
  19. Limitations of liability
    1. We will provide the Services using reasonable care and diligence.

    3. The Services is provided on an “as available” and “as is” basis. This means that we are unable to promise that your use of the Services will be uninterrupted, without delays, error-free or meet your expectations and we do not give any commitment relating to the performance or availability of the Services in this Agreement and, to the extent we are able to do so, we exclude any commitments that may be implied by Applicable Laws.
    4. We will also not be responsible, to the extent permitted under any Applicable Laws, for any delay in any Transactions or any of our other obligations if this is caused by a Force Majeure Event. We will notify you as soon as we can if we are unable to perform a Transaction for any of these reasons and will use reasonable measures to secure the return of any money paid by you.
    5. Except where you have acted fraudulently, we will be responsible for your loss or damage which happens:
      1. before you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators set up your security details;
      2. after you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators have told us about suspected loss or misuse of your security details;
      3. after you, your Authorised Users or Client Administrators have told us about suspected fraud or illegal activity on your Corporate Account;
      4. after we have processed Payment Instructions without verifying security details.

    5. We can also suspend or close your Corporate Account with immediate effect if:
      1. we are obliged to do so by Applicable Laws, a court order or the instructions of an ombudsman, regulatory or government body, or we reasonably believe that a court order is, or instructions from an ombudsman, regulatory or government body are, likely to be given;

    2. Termination of this Agreement does not affect your or our accrued rights and obligations at the date of termination.

A failure to exercise or delay in exercising a right or remedy provided by this Agreement or by Applicable Laws does not constitute a waiver of the right or remedy or a waiver of other rights or remedies.

    4. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

    7. Neither this Agreement nor any Transaction carried out under them shall confer contractual or other rights on, or be enforceable against us by, any party other than you.
  23. Collection of information
    1. Customer Identification
      Financial institutions are required to assist in the fight against money laundering activities and the funding of terrorism by obtaining, verifying, and recording identifying information about all customers. We may therefore ask you to supply us with personal identifying information relating to you, a Sender and any Recipient and we may also legally consult other sources to obtain information about you, any Sender and any Recipient.
    2. Verification and Checks
      1. We will verify your corporate address and personal data of your directors, your authorised persons, as well as any partner, persons with significant control over your business, or beneficial owners in order to confirm your identity. We may also pass the aforementioned personal data to a credit reference agency, which may keep a record of that information. This is done only to confirm your identity, we do not perform credit checks and therefore your credit rating will be unaffected. We may also need to verify the identity of a Recipient in the same way. All information provided by you is treated securely and strictly in accordance with all Applicable Laws. We may do this directly, for example by asking you for additional information, or asking you to take steps to confirm ownership of your accounts, Payment Instruments or email address; or indirectly, for example by verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources.
      2. If you do not provide the documents we request in order to carry out our verification and checks, we have the right to suspend your Corporate Account registration process.
    3. Provision of payment services
      1. You explicitly consent to us accessing, processing and retaining your personal data and that of all of your representatives referred to in Clause 23.2.1 for the purposes of providing the payment services described in the Agreement. We need your explicit consent as a result of certain rules which apply to us (the United Kingdom’s E-Money Regulations 2011 and Payment Services Regulations 2017). This consent does not relate to how we process your personal data for other purposes, which are explained in our Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy can be found here: https://globalpayments.theswipecompany.com/
      2. In order to provide the Services to you, Swipe works with suppliers and correspondent banking service providers. We normally share your personal data with:
        1. suppliers who provide us with IT, payment and card delivery;
        2. our banking and financial-services partners and payments networks, including Visa and Mastercard, in order to help us provide our services to you – this includes banking and lending partners, banking intermediaries and international payment-service providers;
        3. analytics providers and search information providers, to help us improve the Platform;
        4. customer-service providers, survey providers and developer, to help us to provide our services to you; and
        5. communications services providers, to help us send you emails, push notifications and text messages.
    4. Fraud Prevention
      1. The personal data we have collected from you will be shared with fraud prevention agencies who will use it to prevent fraud and money laundering and to verify your identity. If fraud is detected, you could be refused certain services, finance, or employment. Further details of how your information will be used by us and these fraud prevention agencies, and your data protection rights, can be found here: http://www.cifas.org.uk/fpn .
      2. Details of the personal data that will be processed include, for example: name and address, date of birth, contact details, financial information, employment details and device identifiers including IP address.
      3. We and fraud prevention agencies may also enable law enforcement agencies to access and use your personal data to detect, investigate and prevent crime.
      4. Fraud prevention agencies can hold your personal data for different periods of time, and if you are considered to pose a fraud or money laundering risk, your data can be held for up to six years.
      5. As part of the processing of your personal data, decisions may be made by automated means. This means we may automatically decide that you pose a fraud or money laundering risk if our processing reveals your behaviour to be consistent with money laundering or known fraudulent conduct, or is inconsistent with your previous submissions, or you appear to have deliberately hidden your true identity. You have rights in relation to automated decision making. If you want to know more please contact us using the details set out in Clause 32 below.
      6. A record of any fraud or money laundering risk will be retained by the fraud prevention agencies, and may result in others refusing to provide services, financing or employment to you. If you have any questions about this, please contact us using the details set out in Clause 32 below.
      7. Fraud prevention agencies may allow the transfer of your personal data outside of the UK. This may be to a country where the UK government has decided that your data will be protected to UK standards, but if the transfer is to another type of country, then the fraud prevention agencies will ensure your data continues to be protected by ensuring appropriate safeguards are in place.
    5. We may use information about you and your representatives to discharge the responsibilities referred to in Clauses 23.1, 23.2, 23.3 and 23.4 above to provide the Services and to manage our relationship with you. We may disclose this information to Senders, Recipients and intermediaries in the course of providing the Services or as required by Regulation EC 1781/2006 on information on the payer accompanying transfers of funds; persons with whom we share information for anti-money-laundering, security verification or validation purposes; regulatory and prosecuting authorities; service providers acting on our behalf. This may involve transfer of information to countries which do not have data protection laws as strict as those in the UK.
    6. Individuals wishing to access or correct the information that we hold about them can do so by contacting our Data Protection Officer at Swipe International Ltd, Unit 1, 74 Back Church Lane, London E1 1LX, United Kingdom.

    3. We will then investigate the matter and try to reach a satisfactory conclusion. Complaints may be recorded and monitored for our internal use; we may submit an anonymised summary of complaints made to us during a particular period of time to our regulator. We will send you a final response within 15 Business Days after the day on which we received your complaint. In exceptional circumstances, where we cannot send you a final response within this time for reasons beyond our control, we will instead send you a holding reply within this time specifying the reasons for the delay in answering your complaint and the deadline by which you will receive our final response, being not later than 35 Business Days after the day on which we received your complaint. If you do not receive our final response or you are unhappy with our final response, you may be able to refer your complaint to The Financial Ombudsman Services (the “FOS”). You may have the right to make a complaint online at https://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/contact-us/complain-online or by calling the FOS on 0800 023 4567. You can also contact FOS at [email protected] about something other than a new complaint.
