It is expressly established that the Service Provider maintains the possibility of requesting before opening an account and at any time during the term of the Framework Contract, additional documents related to the Account Holder, the beneficial owners, or a specific Payment Operation.

The Account Holder grants the Platform the power to carry out the Payment Operation on their Payment Account under their full responsibility (“Proxy Power”). Proxy Power automatically ends upon the death of the Account Holder. It may be revoked at any time upon the Account Holder’s request by informing the representative and the Service Provider by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt. Revoking it takes effect on the date the Service Provider receives the letter. The Account Holder remains responsible for Payment Operations initiated on its behalf until this date by the designated representative. The Account Holder expressly releases the Service Provider from professional secrecy regarding the data of the Payment Account in terms of the representative designated under Proxy Power.

4.2.2. Restriction of the Payment Account

By the Service Provider’s free assessment, use of a Payment Account may be restricted without the Service Provider having to justify their decision to the Account Holder in question. The functioning of the Payment Account will specifically be restricted when the Account Holder has not provided all of the information and documents required by the Service Provider, such as listed hereinabove. These restrictions are indicated to the Account Holder of the Platform.

4.2.3. Finalisation of Registration

After entering into the Framework Contract, the Account Holder must provide all of the information and proof that are requested by the Platform. By giving their consent to the terms of the Framework Contract, the Account Holder accepts that the Platform will transfer to the Service Provider their request for registration as an Account Holder and all the proof documents received by it.

The Service Provider alone has the power to accept the registration of an interested party as an Account Holder for a Payment Account in their name. This acceptance will be indicated to the Account Holder by the Platform by any means under the terms established on the Site.

The Service Provider, without motivation, or right to an indemnity in favour of the Account Holder, may refuse a request to open an Account. This refusal will be indicated to the Account Holder by the Platform by any means under the terms established on the Site.

5. Functioning of the Payment Account

The amounts credited to the Payment Account result from the funds transferred by Card (or by any other Payment Method accepted by the Service Provider), or the receipt of a transfer. The amounts debited from the Payment Account result: from executing a Payment Order to an account opened in the books of a Third-Party Payment Service Provider, of the Service Provider withdrawing fees due by the Account Holder under the Framework Contract or, a reversal of an operation by Card (or by any other Payment Method).

5.1. Acceptance of Payment Orders by Card for the Payment Account

Transactions for the Payment Account may be carried out by Card (or any other method accepted by the Service Provider), once or on several occasions. When such an operation is requested, the User will be identified on the Site by indicating their username (valid email address) and their password or via their Facebook account. The funds transfer request will be indicated on the Payment Page dedicated for this purpose. For all payments, the User may be requested to use a one-time code sent to their mobile telephone to the institution that issued the Card. If this is the case, it is the Service Provider’s right to

refuse any payment following their free assessment without this decision giving rise to any indemnification. The funds transfer operation is carried out by the institution that issued the Card. Any dispute for such a transfer must be indicated to this institution. The Service Provider is not authorised to cancel such a transfer.

The Account Holder is informed that the Service Provider accepting a Payment Order by Card does not guarantee the receipt of these funds by the Account Holder in their Account. The funds arriving in the Payment Account of the Account Holder is based on the effective receipt by the Service Provider of the funds collected less the fees agreed to under the Price Conditions.

If the funds are not received for technical reasons, the Service Provider will make their best efforts to settle the operation. If the funds are not received for any other reason, the Service Provider will immediately inform the Account Holder of their inability to credit their Account in the expected amount, and to contact the User.

In the event that the transfer of funds to the Account of the Account Holder is cancelled by the institution issuing the Card following the User disputing it, the Account Holder accepts that the Service Provider may reverse any funds transfer operation by Card by debiting the Payment Account of the corresponding amount. The Account Holder recognises that such dispute may be brought to the attention of the institution issuing the Card up until a maximum time frame of thirteen (13) months following the date that the account was debited related to said Card. In the absence of sufficient provisions in the Account to carry out such a reversal, the Service Provider may suspend or cancel any Payment Operation initiated by the Account Holder or a representative, or as the case may be, subrogate the rights of the Account Holder by carrying out recovery procedures for the amount due by the User by any means.

5.2. Receipt of Transfer to the Payment Account

The Account Holder authorises the Service Provider to receive in their Payment Account SEPA transfer operations in euros from a bank account or payment account open in the books of a Third-Party PSP.

The funds are credited to the Payment Account by the Service Provider as quickly as possible following their effective receipt by the Service Provider.

After the funds are credited to the Account Holder’s Payment Account, the Service Provider will make available a summary of the transfer operation received, including the following information: the reference number of the payment operation, a reference number allowing identification of the payer, the amount of the operation, the date of the credit value.

5.3. Execution of a Wire Transfer Operation Debited from the Payment Account

The Account Holder may transfer orders for SEPA or international wire transfers to a Beneficiary’s account held by a Third-Party PSP.

When the Account Holder wishes to carry out a Transfer Operation, they will indicate their identification in their Personal Online Area by indicating their Identification Data and, if need be, by following a Strong Authentication procedure if indicated to them. They will indicate on the Payment Page: the amount of the Payment Operation, the currency, the Payment Account to be debited, the date the Order is to be placed and any other required information. In the absence of a date indicated, the Transfer Order will be deemed to be placed immediately. The Account Holder must also follow the Authentication Procedure (or follow the Strong Authentication Procedure) indicated by the Service Provider.

The Account Holder may at any time issue a request to execute a Transfer Order to a Beneficiary designated by them that has a bank account or payment account from a Third-Party Payment Service Provider. The Account Holder must include the subject associated with each transfer by respecting the

Authentication Procedure (or Strong Authentication Procedure, if it be the case) indicated by the Service Provider

The Account Holder irrevocably consents to the Payment Order by clicking on the “validation” button (“Date of Receipt”). The receipt of the Payment Order is confirmed in the Account Holder’s Personal Online Area. No Order may be withdrawn by the Account Holder after the date upon which it is deemed to irrevocably have been received, which is from the Date of Receipt.

Before issuing a Transfer Order, the Account Holder (or the Platform acting on their behalf) must ensure that they have a sufficient amount of credit available in their Account to cover the amount of the Payment Operation and the related fees as established in the Price Conditions. If necessary, they must credit their Account before the Order is validly transferred to the Service Provider to carry it out.

It is expressly agreed that the Payment Orders are executed at the latest at the end of the Business Day following the Date of Receipt of the Order by the Service Provider (and on the agreed-to execution date for standing or timely transfers). Any Payment Order received after 4:00 p.m. by the Service Provider will be deemed to have been received the following Business Day. If the Date of Receipt is not a Business Day, the Payment Order will be deemed to have been received the following Business Day.

For each Transfer Operation, the Account Holder may request from the Service Provider to be provided with a Hard Copy of the information related to the maximum execution time frame of this specific operation, the fees that they owe and, if it be the case, the details regarding these fees.

The Service Provider may be required to refuse to execute a Transfer Order that is incomplete or erroneous. The Account Holder must reissue the Order so that it is in proper conformity. Furthermore, the Service Provider may block a Transfer Order in the event of serious doubt regarding fraudulent use of the Account, unauthorised use of the Account, breach of security of the Account, in the event of a freeze issued by an administrative authority or for any other reason.

In the event a Transfer Order is refused or blocked, the Service Provider will inform the Account Holder thereof by any means. If possible, the Service Provider will indicate to the Account Holder the reasons for this refusal or blockage, unless it is prohibited from doing so due to a pertinent provision of national law or European Union law.

5.4. Reimbursement

The Account Holder may at any time transfer instructions to cancel a transfer of funds in order to reimburse a User. The Account Holder will access the Site indicating their identifier and password. They will indicate, in their Personal Online Area, the amount of the reimbursement, the currency, the User to be reimbursed and any other required information.

The reimbursement operation is carried out by the Service Provider by crediting the Card used by the User or by transfer using the original payment methods, within the limit of the available balance in the Account and the rules for each network and SEPA rules within five (5) Business Days following the Service Provider’s receipt of the request for reimbursement.

5.5. Specific Provisions for Services Initiating Payment and Information on Accounts Provided by Third-Party PSP

When a Wire Transfer Order is consented to by a Third-Party PSP offering the services of initiating payment, this consent is agreed to between the Account Holder and said Third-Party PSP under the

conditions agreed to between them. The Service Provider is not involved under these conditions and 9

may in no way be held responsible in the event of a dispute related to providing this service by the Third-Party PSP following said conditions.

The Account Holder may not revoke a payment order after giving their consent that the Third-Party PSP providing the service of initiating payment initiates the Payment Operation.

If an unauthorised, unexecuted or improperly executed Payment Operation is initiated by the Third-Party PSP providing the service of initiating payment, the Service Provider, at the latest at the end of the following Business Day, shall immediately reimburse the Account Holder in the amount of the unauthorised, unexecuted or improperly executed operation and, if it be the case, refund the Account debited so that it is in the state that it would be in if the unauthorised or improperly executed Payment Operation had not taken place. The date on which the Account Holder’s Payment Account is credited shall not be dated later than the date upon which it was debited.

6. Reporting

The Account Holder, in their Personal Online Area, has a statement of the Payment Operations carried out on the Payment Account available to them. They are asked to attentively acknowledge the list of these operations. Operations statements may also, upon express request, be made available to the professional Account Holder for other time frames.

It is specified that for each Transfer Operation carried out by the Service Provider, the Account Holder has the following information available to them: the reference number of the Operation, the identification of the Beneficiary, the amount of the Operation, the date the Order is received, and if it be the case, the fees related to executing this Operation.

7. Access to the Payment Account and Confidentiality of Personalised Security Data

The Payment Account is accessible online in the Personal Online Area, by using the Identification Data and in compliance with the requested Authentication Procedure (or Strong Authentication Procedure, depending on the case).

The Account Holder must indicate the Identification Data of each Authorised Person. Each Authorised Person accepts to not use the name or Identification Data of another person. The Account Holder alone is responsible for the use of their identifier.
Each Authorised Person is fully responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their Identification Data, as well as any other Personalised Security Data potentially provided to the Service Provider or the Platform. The Account Holder must take all reasonable measures to maintain the confidentiality and security of their Personalised Security Data. They also undertake to educate the Authorised Persons regarding the confidentiality and security of their own Personalised Security Data.

The Account Holder (and each Authorised Person) accepts to not communicate their Personalised Security Data to third parties. By way of exception, the Account Holder may communicate to authorised Third- Party PSP in a Member State of the European Union or in a State that is part of the European Economic Area agreement for information services regarding the accounts and initiation of Payment Operation (such as defined in Article 4 of European Directive 2015/2366, called “PSD2”). The Account Holder must ensure that this Third-Party PSP is authorised for the above-mentioned services and that it accesses the Personalised Security Data in a secured environment.

8. Objection Regarding Personalised Security Data

The Account Holder must inform the Platform of the loss or theft of their Personalised Security Data, of any misuse or unauthorised use of their Personal Online Area or data relating to them as soon as they become aware of this and request that it be blocked. This declaration must be carried out:

  • - by making a telephone call to the Platform Customer Service at the number indicated in the General Conditions of the Site; or
  • - directly by electronic message through the contact form accessible on the Site.

The Service Provider, through the Platform, shall immediately execute the request for objection. The event will be recorded and date/time stamped.

In the event Personalised Security Data is stolen or there is fraudulent use of the Personal Online Area, the Service Provider is authorised to request from the Platform, a statement or copy of the complaint of the Account Holder and undertakes to respond to it as quickly as possible.

9. Blocking a Payment Account and Refusing Access to a Payment Account

The Service Provider reserves the right to block the Payment Account for objectively motivated reasons regarding the security of the Payment Account, the presumption of unauthorised or fraudulent use the Payment Account or a significantly increased risk that the Account Holder is incapable of fulfilling their obligation to pay the fees due under this Framework Contract.

The Account Holder is informed that the Service Provider may refuse access to the Payment Account by Third-Party PSP providing the service of initiating payment or information on the accounts, for objectively motivated or documented reasons related to unauthorised or fraudulent access to the Payment Account by this Service Provider, including initiating an unauthorised or fraudulent payment operation.

In this event, the Account Holder will be informed in their Personal Online Area of the block or refusal of access to the Payment Account and the reasons for this block or refusal. This information will be provided to them, if possible, before the Payment Account is blocked or access is refused and at the latest immediately after the block or refusal, unless providing this information is not communicable for reasons of objectively motivated security or is prohibited under another provision of pertinent European Union or national law.

The Service Provider will unblock the Account or re-establish access to it when the reasons for the block or refusal of access no longer exist. The Account Holder may request at any time that the Account be unblocked by indicating this to the Platform Customer Service, the contact information of which is included in the General Conditions of the Site. The Account Holder may be requested to create new Identification Data.

The Service Provider will return the Account to the state it was in before the unauthorised Payment Operation took place

In the event of the loss or theft of Personalised Security Data, unauthorised Operations carried out before they are contested are the Account Holder’s responsibility.

- Of the loss or theft of Personalised Security Data that could not be detected by the Account Holder

before the payment was made;
- Of losses due to actions or failures of an employee, agent or subsidiary of a PSP or an entity to

which these activities were externalised. The Account Holder is also not held responsible:

  • - in the event of counterfeiting the Personalised Security Data, if, at the time of the unauthorised Payment Operation, the Account Holder is in possession of this Data.

The Account Holder will bear all the losses arising from unauthorised Operations if these losses result from fraudulent activity by them or if they intentionally seriously neglected the obligations to keep their Personalised Security Data secured and to contest operations in the event of loss, theft or diversion of their Data.

11. Financial Conditions

The services offered herein are invoiced by the Platform on behalf of the Service Provider in compliance with the Price Conditions.

Any commissions due by the Account Holder are automatically deducted from the Payment Account by the Service Provider.

Funds in the Payment Account may be compensated for any amount due, collectible and unpaid of the Account Holder to the Service Provider.

In the event of late payment of the amounts due and collectible of the Account Holder to the Service Provider, the Account Holder will owe late-payment interests for the period from the date they are due until payment is complete. The applicable interest rate will be calculated on the basis of two times the annual legal interest rate published twice yearly for businesses.

12. Term and Termination
The Framework Contract is entered into for an indeterminate period. It enters into force from the time it is

accepted by the Account Holder.

The latter may at any time and by respecting an advance notice of thirty (30) calendar days, terminate the Framework Contract. The Service Provider may at any time terminate the Framework Contract, by respecting an advance notice of two (2) months provided in Hard Copy format. In this case, the fees irrefutably owed for the Payment Services are due by the Account Holder on a pro rata basis for the period elapsed at the termination date.

Account after deducting the fees due and payable to the Service Provider. If the credit in the Payment Account surpasses the threshold indicated in the Price Conditions, the amount surpassing the threshold will be transferred within thirty (30) days following the date the termination takes effect to the Account Holder’s bank account after deducting the fees due and payable to the Service Provider. The Service Provided is discharged of any obligation upon confirming to the Account Holder the transfer to the bank account indicated.

In the event of serious breach, fraud, or lack of payment on the part of the Account Holder, the Service Provider reserves the right to suspend or terminate this Contract by sending an email along with a registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt without providing reasons or advance notice.

Lacking notification of refusal before the indicated date that they enter into force, the Account Holder will be deemed to have accepted the proposed modifications. The relationship between the Parties after the date of entry into force will then be governed by the new version of the Framework Contract.

In the event the Account Holder refuses, this refusal will give rise, without fees, to the termination of the Framework Contract, as well as the transfer of the balance of the Payment Account in a time frame of thirteen (13) months following the date the termination takes effect in order to cover anything contested in the future.

Any legislative or regulatory provisions that make modifications necessary to any part of the Framework Contract will be applicable from the date they enter into force, without advance notice. However, the Account Holder will be informed thereof.

14. Security

The Service Provider undertakes to ensure that the services are provided with respect to the applicable laws and regulations and best practices. Specifically, the Service Provider shall do what is necessary to ensure the security and confidentiality of the Account Holder’s data, in compliance with the regulation in force.

The Service Provider reserves the right to temporarily suspend access to the online Account for technical, security or maintenance reasons without these operations invoking any right to an indemnity of any kind. It undertakes to limit these types of interruptions to those that are strictly necessary.

However, the Service Provider shall not be held responsible to the Account Holder for potential errors, omissions, interruptions or delays of operations carried out via the Site that result from unauthorised access by the latter. The Service Provider shall not be held responsible for the theft, destruction or unauthorised disclosure of data that results from unauthorised access to the Site. Furthermore, the Service Provider remains outside of the scope of the legal relationship between the Account Holder and a User or

between the Account Holder and the Site. The Service Provider will not be held responsible for defaults, breaches or negligence between a User and an Account Holder, or the Site and an Account Holder.

If the unique identifier or any other information necessary to carry out a Payment Operation provided by the Account Holder is inexact, the Service Provider cannot be held responsible for the improper execution of said Service.

The Platform alone is responsible for the security and confidentiality of the data exchanged in the framework of using the Site in compliance with the General Conditions of the Site, the Service Provider being responsible for the security and confidentiality of the data that it exchanges with the Account Holder in the framework hereof for creating and managing their Account, as well as Payment Operations related to the Account.

15. Limits to the Service Provider’s Liability

The Service Provider is in no way involved in the legal and commercial relationships and potential disputes arising between the Account Holder and the User or between the Account Holder and the Platform or between the Account Holder and a Beneficiary. The Service Provider exercises no oversight over the conformity, security, legality, characteristics and the appropriate character of the products and services subject to a Payment Operation.

Every operation carried out by the Account Holder gives rise to a contract created directly between themselves and a User who is a stranger to the Service Provider. Consequently, the latter cannot be held responsible for the non-performance or improper performance of the obligations arising from it, or any potential damages caused to the Account Holder.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Contract, the Service Provider’s liability in terms of an Account Holder is limited to reparations for direct damages as established by regulation.

16. The Account Holder’s Commitments

The Account Holder acknowledges that elements in their Personal Online Area do not infringe on the rights of a third party and are not contrary to the law, public order, or proper ethics.
They undertake:

  1. (i) To not perform the Framework Contract in an illegal manner or under conditions that may damage, deactivate, overload or alter the site;
  2. (ii) To not usurp the identity of another person or entity, falsify or divulge their identity, their age or create a false identity;
  3. (iii) To not divulge data or personal information related to a third party, such as postal addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses, bank card numbers, etc. In the event of a breach of these obligations, the Service Provider may take all appropriate measures in order to bring an end to these actions. It also has the right to suspend, erase and/or block the Account Holder’s access to their Account.
  4. (iv) Without prejudice to legal actions undertaken by third parties, the Service Provider has the right to personally bring any legal action that seeks to repair the damages that it has personally been subject to due to the Account Holder’s breach of their obligations under this Contract.
