2.2

You can download or print the latest version of this Agreement at any time from the Website and/or request a paper copy from Customer Services.

2.3

Your TAP Card is an e-money product; it is not a credit, charge or debit card or connected in any way to your bank account.

3

Purchase and activation of your TAP Card

3.1

To apply for, and use, a TAP Card you must be at least 18 and a resident of the EEA.

3.2

TAP Cards may be obtained by making a request from within the TAP App.

3.3

Regardless of the type and number of TAP Cards you have, you are permitted to have only one TAP Account where your Available Balance is located. If we discover that you do have more than one TAP Account, we may block your TAP Card and terminate this Agreement.

3.4

When you receive your Physical TAP Card, you must sign it immediately and then visit the TAP App to activate it. You can activate your Virtual TAP Card via the TAP App.

3.5

Provided we have been able to undertake KYC, you shall receive an activation confirmation by email or on your Online Account and you will be able to use the TAP Card.

4

Personal Details

4.1

When entering into Transactions over the internet, some websites may require you to enter your Personal Details and, in such instances, you should supply the most recent Personal Details that you have provided us with.

4.2

You must notify us of any change in your Personal Details as soon as possible by contacting Customer Services or updating the details in your Online Account. You will be liable for any loss that directly results from any failure to notify us of a change in your Personal Details as a result of undue delay, your gross negligence or fraud. We will need to verify your new Personal Details and may request relevant KYC information/documents from you as applicable.

4.3

We reserve the right at any time to satisfy ourselves as to your Personal Details (for example, by requesting relevant original documents) including for the purposes of preventing fraud and/or money laundering. In addition, at the time of your application or at any time in the future, in connection with your TAP Account, you authorise us to undertake electronic identity verification checks on you either directly or using relevant third parties.

5

Loading your TAP Card

5.1

Funds may be added to your TAP Account by any of the permitted methods set out in the “Loading Fees” section of the Fees and Limits Schedule.

5.2

To load your TAP Card by debit card, you must use a debit card that has been issued by a regulated financial institution in the EEA and registered in the same name and address as your TAP account. You may also load your card via bank transfer from a bank account in your own name.

5.3

We reserve the right to request KYC documents and verification of your source of funds at any point.

5.4

Fund loading limits may vary according to the type of TAP Card and as set out in the Fees & Limits Schedule.

6

Using your TAP Card

6.1

Your use of the TAP Card is subject to the Fees detailed in the Fees & Limits Schedule, which shall be deducted from the Available Balance.

6.2

Unless we inform you otherwise, you can use the TAP Card at any Merchant who accepts the Scheme to carry out Transactions.

6.3

You must always ensure that you have sufficient Available Balance for each Transaction you authorise (including value added tax and other taxes, duties and applicable fees). If the Available Balance is insufficient to pay for a Transaction, some Merchants may not permit you to combine the use of your TAP Card with other payment methods.

6.4

If for any reason a Transaction is carried out but its amount exceeds the Available Balance, you must pay us the deficit immediately, and if you fail to do so after receiving a notification from us, we reserve the right to take all necessary steps, including legal action, to recover this deficit.

6.5

There are certain circumstances where a Merchant may require you to have an Available Balance greater than the value of the Transaction you wish to make and you will only be charged for the actual and final value of the Transaction. Merchants may request this as they may need to access more funds than you initially planned to spend for example, when making hotel or rental car reservations. In the event that a Merchant has prior authorization on your TAP Card, you will not have access to the relevant funds until the Transaction is completed or, if sooner, up to a period of 30 days. We will only block access to the exact amount of funds authorised by you.

6.6

Your TAP Card cannot be used where such Merchants are unable to obtain online authorisation that you have sufficient Available Balance for the Transaction (for example, Transactions made on trains, ships, some in-flight purchases and tollbooths). We accept no liability if a Merchant refuses to accept payment using the TAP Card.

6.7

We do not recommend using a Virtual Card to purchase an item over the internet that subsequently would require the presentation of a physical reference device in order to obtain that item. Examples include certain theatre ticket purchases, hotel stays, car rentals, and online purchases picked up in person.

6.8

You must not use the TAP Card for:

6.8.1

Pre-Authorised regular payments; or

6.8.2

Transactions at self-service petrol pumps; or

6.8.3

Unattended “Offline” tollways; or

6.8.4

Any illegal activities

7

Authorising Transactions

7.1

You will need to give your consent to each Transaction so that we can check it is genuine by, where applicable, a) using your PIN or other security code personal to you; b) signing a sales voucher; c) providing the TAP Card details and/or providing any other details personal to you and/or your TAP Card. Once you have given such consent to the Transaction, it will be deemed to be authorised.

7.2

The time of receipt of a Transaction order is when we receive it.

7.3

Once a Transaction has been authorised by you and received by us, it cannot be revoked.

7.4

Where a Merchant’s payment service provider is located within the EEA and the payment services being carried out are in the currency of an EEA Member State, we shall ensure the cash transfer to the Merchant’s payment service provider within 4 Business Days following the day on which the Transaction order is received.

7.5

Certain Merchants may not accept payments made through the TAP Card and we accept no liability for this: it is your responsibility to check the restrictions of each Merchant.

7.6

Your ability to use or access the TAP Card may occasionally be interrupted, for example if we need to carry out maintenance on our systems or websites or if any of our third party providers need to carry out maintenance to their systems or websites. Please contact Customer Services to notify us of any problems you are experiencing using your TAP Card or TAP Account and we will try to resolve these as soon as possible.

8.3

If after that time, TAP will attempt to correct the balance automatically by exchanging from your other Fiat or Crypto wallets or by attempting to add the outstanding value from any registered debit card you have added to your account. Failure to maintain a positive balance may cause your account to be terminated immediately.
