5. About The Services

5.1 Wallet. The ‘Wallet’ enables you to electronically hold, send and receive funds in the form of non-cash payments through the Airwallex Platform. The funds in the Wallet can be in multiple currencies but only in the Supported Currencies that we offer, which may change from time to time. The funds in your Wallet may be used to make Payments or FX Conversions in accordance with this Agreement.

5.2 Global Account. The Global Account is a currency collection service where Airwallex will provide you with local bank account details in Supported Jurisdictions and Supported Currencies which you can provide to payers. A Global Account may be subject to Additional Terms for a Supported Jurisdiction. Subject to any Additional Terms, such bank account shall be opened in the name of Airwallex and any funds received into such account are received by Airwallex as your limited agent and you hereby appoint Airwallex as your agent for such purposes.

5.3 You may request Airwallex to open more than one Global Account for a particular Supported Currency. When you request that we open a Global Account you will be provided with a unique account number. You acknowledge and agree that such account number is for administrative purposes only and does not represent a separate bank account opened in your name.

5.4 You acknowledge and agree that the Global Account may be provided through financial institutions in certain Supported Jurisdictions. Where money from a payer is received, it may be initially received into an account with such financial institutions. However, Airwallex will on a regular basis sweep such amounts representing your portion of the balance (or equivalent amount in AUD or another currency on a marked to market bases)into an account held for the purposes of a Bank Guarantee.

5.5 How balances are represented. The funds collected through a Global Account will be represented in your Wallet as part of the balance in each Supported Currency – there will not be a separate balance shown for funds collected through a Global Account.

5.6 Bank Guarantee. The electronic funds in your Wallet are protected by a bank guarantee (the Bank Guarantee). The Bank Guarantee is issued by an Australian authorised deposit-taking institution (the Issuer) in favour of Global Loan Agency Services Australia Nominees Pty Ltd (the Trustee or GLAS) who holds the benefit of the Bank Guarantee on trust for all Wallet holders of the Direct Services. Airwallex is required to ensure that, at any point in time, the amount of the Bank Guarantee is greater than the aggregate electronic funds balances of all Wallet holders of the Direct Services. If an insolvency event occurs with respect to Airwallex or Airwallex is found by any court or tribunal in Australia or the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) to be in breach of any obligation owed to you in connection with your Wallet which breach is not remedied within 10 Business Days following receipt by Airwallex of the final non-appealable judgement or determination of the court, tribunal or AFCA, the Trustee must make a demand on the Bank Guarantee. In the future, more than one Bank Guarantee may be held by the Trustee and a Bank Guarantee may be issued by the Issuer in either Australian Dollars or United States Dollars. You acknowledge that if a demand is made on the Bank Guarantee and the Trustee holds one or more Bank Guarantees denominated in Australian Dollars only, the Trustee will apply the proceeds of the Bank Guarantees to satisfy electronic money balances of affected Wallet holders held (i) in Australian Dollars, in Australian Dollars and (ii) in any other currency, in Australian Dollars using an exchange rate determined by the Trustee (acting reasonably). You acknowledge that if a demand is made on the Bank Guarantee and the Trustee holds one or more Bank Guarantees denominated in Australian Dollars and United States Dollars, the Trustee will apply the proceeds of the Bank Guarantees to satisfy electronic money balances of affected Wallet holders held (i) in Australian Dollars, in Australian Dollars, (ii) in United States Dollars, in United States Dollars and (iii) in any other currency, in Australian Dollars or United States Dollars having regard to the available Bank Guarantee proceeds and using an exchange rate determined by the Trustee (acting reasonably). Where you are to receive such proceeds in United States Dollars, you may by written request to the Trustee, request the Trustee to convert those proceeds into Australian Dollars. In these circumstances, the Trustee shall use reasonable endeavours to instruct the bank or financial institution that is processing the payment of those proceeds to you to make such conversion at that bank or financial institution’s offered rate of exchange for such conversions. Any costs incurred by the Trustee in making such conversion shall be payable by you and may be deducted from the proceeds payable to you. The proceeds of the Bank Guarantee will be available for the payment of the electronic money balances of affected Wallet holders. In these circumstances you can contact the Trustee at: GLAS (Re: Airwallex) Level 26, 1 Bligh Street, Sydney NSW 2000 Australia; Phone: +61 2 82268728 (Re: Airwallex); Website: https://glas.agency/aus/ and Email: [email protected] (Re: Airwallex). The Bank Guarantee(s) referenced in this clause have been issued with the intention of satisfying an exemption published by the Reserve Bank of Australia under section 25 of the Payment System (Regulations) Act 1998 (Cth) on 4 March 2004 (the Exemption). You acknowledge that: (i) if Airwallex no longer needs to rely on the Exemption, such as where Airwallex is granted an Authorised deposit taking institution licence, neither Airwallex nor the Trustee need maintain the Bank Guarantee; and (ii) if Airwallex is not able to satisfy the Exemption, the Bank Guarantee will not be maintained and your funds will be held in a Segregated Account on trust for you and separately from Airwallex’s own funds.

5.7. For the purposes of establishing the Bank Guarantee arrangements, Airwallex is authorised to transfer free and clear title to all relevant balances held in a Segregated Account: to the Issuer as collateral for performance of the Bank Guarantee; and to the issuer of a Bank Guarantee issued in United States Dollars as collateral for performance of that Bank Guarantee, and to convert any currency held in the Segregated Account to another currency for such purposes.

5.8. Interest. Unless otherwise agreed with you in writing, Airwallex is entitled to keep the interest (if any) earned on the electronic funds balances it holds in accounts under clauses 5.6 to 5.7 at its absolute discretion.

5.9. The balance of your Wallet:

(a) will not expire, except when your Wallet is closed – see clause 17 for more details;

(b) will not earn any interest or rewards; and

5.10. We may place interim or permanent restrictions on your use of the Wallet, a Global Account or any other part of the Services depending on certain regulatory requirements, identity verification checks or business requirements, which will be set out in the Acceptable Use Policy or any Additional Terms. These will be communicated to you at the time the restriction is put in place or, if that is not practical due to urgent or unforeseen circumstances, promptly after the restriction is put in place.

5.11. Supported Currencies. The Services relate to a range of Supported Currencies. The Supported Currencies may differ depending on the Service. More information about the Supported Currencies for each Service are available on www.airwallex.com or the Airwallex Platform.

5.12. Airwallex Card. If we have agreed to issue you or any Additional Cardholder with a Card, the terms set out in the Issuing Terms shall apply to the use of any Cards linked to your Wallet in addition to the terms of this Agreement. The terms of the Issuing Terms shall be incorporated and form a part of this Agreement as if set out in this Agreement in full.

6. Getting Started

6.1 Creating your Airwallex Profile. In order to use our Services, you must apply by providing the necessary information as prompted through the Airwallex Platform to register and create your Airwallex Profile. If required by Airwallex, you must provide your bank account details to be linked to your Airwallex Profile. We will review your application and contact you if we agree to provide you with the Services.

6.2 We will only create your Airwallex Profile and allow you to use our Services if we are satisfied with the information you have provided, and we have been able to verify this information. We may refuse a request to create your Airwallex Profile and use our Services in our sole discretion, for example if we reasonably believe you may be in breach of our Acceptable Use Policy or due to regulatory restrictions. You must inform us promptly if any details previously provided as part of your Airwallex Profile changes or is incorrect.

6.3 You can only have one Airwallex Profile, unless we agree otherwise in writing. If we discover that you have more than one Airwallex Profile, at our discretion, we may either merge or close any duplicate profiles, or terminate your Services, for example, if we reasonably believe you have opened them in order to bypass any restrictions in the Services.

6.4 You confirm you are acting on your own account, not on behalf of any other person or legal entity. Where you are a company, sole trader, partnership or other commercial entity, you confirm the Services are being used in connection with business or commercial purposes and not for personal, domestic or household purposes. If you are entering into this Agreement as trustee of a trust, you must disclose that to us. We will deem any use of the Wallet, including any transfers into and out of the Wallet, to have been carried out by you.

6.5 Creating a Global Account. Once we have created your Airwallex Profile, you can submit a request to open a Global Account by logging on to the Airwallex Platform and providing the necessary information, including any additional information that we may require from time to time. You may also need to agree to Additional Terms. We will advise you of this requirement, if relevant, when you request to open a Global Account.

6.6 Setting up Airwallex APIs. You may access the Airwallex Platform through Airwallex APIs as well as the Webapp. However, in order to use our Services through the Airwallex APIs, you must first be approved by us. If you are approved by us, you will need to comply with our API Documentation and reasonable directions regarding the integration and use of the Airwallex APIs.

7. Authorised User

7.1 You may appoint an ‘Authorised User’ (for example, any of your directors, officers, employees or professional advisors) to access information about the Services and act on your behalf to enter into and confirm FX Conversions and Payments under this Agreement. You must set up each Authorised User with a User Profile and promptly provide us with the following details of any of your proposed Authorised Users: Customer name, name of Authorised User, Customer address and billing address, phone and email address of Authorised User, and any other contact or identification information of the Authorised User that we may reasonably require. You must inform us promptly if any details previously provided about an Authorised User changes or is incorrect. You will ensure that your Authorised Users comply with this agreement and in respect of your obligations and liabilities under this Agreement and for such purposes any references to ‘you’ shall (where the context requires) be read as including your Authorised Users.

7.2 You may setup you Authorised Users to have different levels of authority by following the relevant prompts on the Airwallex Platform.

7.3 You agree that:

(a) your Authorised Users have the authority to provide instructions to us for the provision of Services on your behalf;

(b) we may rely on instructions given by the Authorised User, and you will be bound by the actions of your Authorised Users, until you provide us with written notice withdrawing or otherwise varying the authority of an Authorised User;

(d) you will promptly report to us any infringements or unauthorised access to the Airwallex Platform, including through the Webapp or Airwallex APIs.

8. Receiving Payments & Loading Money Into The Wallet

8.1 Funding your Wallet. You can load funds to your Wallet by logging in to the Airwallex Platform and following the steps as prompted. You may load funds to the Wallet by way of a bank transfer to Airwallex. We may permit additional methods of receiving or loading money into the Wallet from time to time.

8.2 Global Account collection. If we have opened a Global Account for you, you may also receive funds to your Wallet through payer making a payment through the Global Account service in accordance with clause 5 above.

8.3 We will credit your Wallet when we receive your funds. When transferring money to your Wallet or to a Global Account, you should ensure that you or any transferee enters the correct bank details and any unique transaction reference number details specified by Airwallex. If you do not provide accurate details, then we may not be able to credit your Wallet and we will not be responsible for any loss you incur as a result. We are not responsible for any funds transferred, and will not record them as available in the Wallet, until we have actually received the funds from you or via a collection through the Global Account. The transfer of funds from you or other payers to your Wallet or a Global Account is a service provided by third parties, and is not part of our Services. We have no control over the time it may take for the transfer of such funds to clear and settle. If you think a mistake has been made, in transferring money to your Wallet or a Global Account, you should promptly contact the third party responsible for the transfer in the first instance. We will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with any such third party in investigating any such mistaken transfer.

8.4 Reversals. We may need to reverse a transaction and either deduct funds we have credited to your Wallet, or return funds we have debited from your Wallet, including in the following circumstances:

(a) the sender, or any relevant payment services provider, reverses a transaction or is likely to reverse a transaction;

(b) the sender made a transfer to you by mistake or your account has been credited in error;

(d) we suspect that a transaction is fraudulent, or is in breach of this Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy or Applicable Law; or

(e) we exercise our rights under clause 16.

8.5. If you do not have enough funds in your Wallet for us to make a deduction, you must reimburse us as soon as possible, as set out in clause 9.23.

8.6. Where the original transaction was made through the Card, reversals will be effected in accordance with the Issuing Terms. For other transactions, where we make a reversal, we may choose whether to make the reversal in the currency of the original transaction or in a separate currency, for example, where the original transaction is not in a Supported Currency which can be held in your Wallet, we will generally choose to convert the amount of the reversal into your Base Currency. Where we are required to perform any currency conversions in connection with the reversal of a transaction, we will do this at the prevailing FX Exchange Rate applicable at the time of the reversal or at the original FX Exchange Rate applicable to the transaction, in our discretion.

8.7. You must promptly notify Airwallex in writing if you become aware that your Wallet has been credited in error.

9. Making Payments And FX Conversions

9.1 Your instructions. You may instruct us to make a FX Conversion or Payment by providing the necessary details as prompted in the Airwallex Platform.

9.2 You should check each instruction carefully to ensure that the details of the instruction are correct including the bank account details of any payee. If you do not provide accurate details, then we may not be able carry out your instructions correctly. In such cases, we will not be liable for any loss you incur, although we will use reasonable efforts to investigate and credit or return incorrect and inaccurately referenced payments into or from your Wallet. You should inform us promptly if you think a mistake has been made in your instructions. However, we may not be able to stop, amend or reverse a transaction undertaken in accordance with your instructions once a Confirmation has been issued.

9.3 Confirmation. Except in relation to Forward Contracts and unless otherwise approved by Airwallex, you must have sufficient funds in your Wallet in the relevant source currency to cover the full amount of any FX Conversion or Payment (including Service Fees) that you wish to make. We may decline your instructions if you do not have enough funds, if you exceed any applicable limits, or in accordance with clause 17. When we are satisfied with your instructions we will issue you with a Confirmation and the amount specified in the Confirmation becomes due and payable to us on the date specified in the Confirmation.

9.4 Where there are insufficient funds for one or more FX Conversions and/or Payments at Settlement Cut-Off, Airwallex reserves the right to make the FX Conversion or Payment at its discretion (for example, on a time basis, converting the earliest booked FX Conversion or Payment up to the value of the funds available to Airwallex at the applicable Settlement Date or Payment Date). The remaining booked FX Conversions will be treated as failed transactions, and Airwallex reserves the right to charge relevant break costs and administration fees in accordance with this Agreement.

9.5 We may impose daily or periodic limits on the amount of Payments or FX Conversions you may enter into.

9.6 FX Exchange Rate. You may access the indicative FX Exchange Rate for a FX Conversion through the Airwallex Platform. The indicative FX Exchange Rate will be quoted to you when you instruct us through the Airwallex Platform and the final FX Exchange Rate will be confirmed when we issue a Confirmation. We will ensure, as far as reasonably practicable, that the confirmed FX Exchange Rate reflects the rate quoted to you. The rate may be different as the rate may have changed between the time of your instruction and the time we issue the Confirmation. You agree that changes to exchange rates come into effect immediately without notice.

9.7 We may agree to allow you to enter into FX Conversions at an agreed FX Exchange Rate for an agreed period of time (Lock FX). Where you have requested and we have agreed to provide you with Lock FX, the agreed FX Exchange Rate will apply to all FX Conversions entered into during the period of the Lock FX.

9.8 Forward Contracts. If you are approved to enter into Forward Contracts, you may request to enter into a Forward Contract by providing instructions to us through the Airwallex Platform. If we agree to your request we will provide you with a Confirmation setting out the details of the Forward Contract. You agree that it is your responsibility to check the Confirmation to ensure that it corresponds with your instructions. You agree to enter into Forward Contracts only for the purpose of facilitating payment for identifiable goods or services. If we reasonably believe that you intend to enter into the Forward Contract for other purposes, we:

(a) may decline to accept your instruction in respect of a Forward Contract; or

(b) if we have already accepted your instruction, we may cancel the Forward Contract.

9.9 Forward Contracts shall be settled by the physical delivery of foreign currency by us on the Settlement Date against the payment of any outstanding amount you owe to us in respect of the Forward Contract. You may not elect to “cash settle” a Forward Contract by transferring to us or requiring us to transfer to you the associated net cash position.

9.10. Pre-Fund Spot FX Transactions. For a Pre-Fund Spot FX Transaction, the Customer simultaneously or no later than intraday: (i) orders and agrees to the Pre-Fund Spot FX Transaction; (ii) agrees to have its Wallet debited by Airwallex; and (iii) agrees to have its Wallet credited or payout made by Airwallex. Consequently, the settlement of Pre-Fund Spot FX Transactions generally occurs simultaneously (or no later than ‘same day’ in some circumstances) with the agreement to enter into the Pre-Fund Spot FX Transaction.

9.11. Post-Fund Spot FX Transactions. For a Post-Fund Spot FX Transaction, the Customer: (i) orders and agrees to the Post-Fund Spot FX Transaction on a date (“Order Date”); (ii) agrees to have its Wallet debited by Airwallex by Wallet Settlement Cut-Off; and (iii) agrees to have its Wallet credited or payout made by Airwallex simultaneously with or immediately after the relevant debit is completed. Consequently, the Wallet Settlement Cut-Off of the Post-Fund Spot FX Transaction will generally be on either: (i) the Order Date; or (ii) up to three days after the Order Date. It is important to note that the payments the Customer makes under a post-fund spot contract are paid to acquire that post-fund spot contract.

9.12 Settlement requirements. The issue of a Confirmation means that the FX Conversion or Payment has been created and cannot be cancelled by you. We will deduct the amount of your FX Conversion or Payment from your Wallet immediately at the time we issue a Confirmation. You must ensure that there are sufficient funds available in your Wallet by the relevant Settlement Cut-Off time. However, if you are approved to post-fund, you must:

(a) for an FX Conversion (or Payment, if the Payment is linked to an FX Conversion): deposit any amount specified in the Confirmation in cleared funds by Wallet Settlement Cut-Off; and

(b) for a Payment: ensure there are sufficient cleared funds in the Payment currency available to Airwallex by the Payment Date.

9.13 Date. Airwallex will deduct the amount of the Customer’s FX Conversion or Payment from the Customer’s Wallet when Airwallex issues a Confirmation or, if the Customer is approved to post-fund the FX Conversion or Payment, at the same time that Airwallex receives the relevant funds from the Customer. If that date is not a Business Day, or if Airwallex receives the Customer’s instructions after 5pm on a Business Day, then the date may be adjusted by Airwallex to the next day that is a Business Day.

9.14. Execution time. If you are making a Payment and/or FX Conversion, we will generally remit the Payment and/or effect the FX Conversion as soon as possible. Generally, Airwallex will remit funds to a payee’s payment service provider within 24 hours after Airwallex accepts the Customer’s instructions, provided that we have received corresponding payment or funds from you.

9.15 The methods of crediting the funds may be provided by third parties (for example the bank where the payee has their bank account) and are not part of our Services. We do not have any control over the amount of time it may take for a payee’s bank or payment provider to credit funds to the payee, but would generally expect this to take less than 5 Business Days, unless a longer period is required by Applicable Law.

9.16 Holding Amount. Airwallex may from time to time require you to pay to it an amount (the Holding Amount) by way of deposit against the potential liabilities you may incur in connection with transactions you enter into with us. Airwallex may at any time in its absolute discretion, by not less than two days prior notice, require you to make additional payments to Airwallex with such payments forming part of the Holding Amount.

9.17 The Holding Amount may be applied to meet any amount you owe to Airwallex in connection with this Agreement (including losses and expenses incurred by Airwallex in connection with the termination and unwinding of the Forward Contracts in accordance with clause 9.20).

9.18 The Holding Amount may be deducted from the balance of your Wallet or a hold may be placed over a portion of the balance of your Wallet corresponding to the Holding Amount (in which case you will not be able to enter into FX Conversions or Payments using this amount). You acknowledge and agree that you will not be entitled to interest on the Holding Amount and we may retain any interest in connection with the Holding Amount. Airwallex shall return to you any remaining balance of the Holding Amount (less any amounts deducted in accordance with clause 9.17) if you terminate your relationship with us and you do not owe any outstanding obligations to us or at such other time as we may agree in our absolute discretion.

9.18 Failed FX Conversions and Payments. We may in our sole discretion decide to cancel an FX Conversion or Payment, or delay the Settlement Date of a FX Conversion, or Payment by rolling it over to the next Settlement Date or Payment Date (as applicable), due to reasons outside of our control such as:

(a) failure of conversion in the sell currency by the Customer to Airwallex on any FX Conversion;

(b) failure of Payment in the Payment currency by the Customer to Airwallex on any Payment; or

(c) due to any closure or disruption to the normal operation of banks in the countries of the currencies that are being transacted.

9.19 Termination of FX Conversion. We may terminate a FX Conversion at any time:

(a) if you fail to pay to us any part of the Holding Amount required from you or you communicate an intention not to pay such amount;

(b) if you communicate an intention not to be bound by the terms of an FX Conversion or to default under the terms of an FX Conversion;

(c) if you suffer an Insolvency Event or if in our reasonable opinion there is an adverse change in your financial position;

(d) if you have not made a required payment by the Settlement Cut-Off time;

(e) if you breach this Agreement (including because you have defaulted on your obligations in connection with any other FX Conversion or Payment) or any Additional Terms; or

(f) if required by Applicable Law.

9.20 If your FX Conversion is terminated, you must indemnify Airwallex for all losses and expenses incurred by Airwallex in connection with the termination and unwinding of the FX Conversion. Airwallex may require you to compensate it for such losses or expenses by charging you a break cost which reflects Airwallex’s genuine and reasonable estimate of its likely losses in connection with the termination and unwinding of a FX Conversion. More information about how break costs are calculated is available from Airwallex on request. In the event that a gain is made by Airwallex in connection with the termination of a FX Conversion, such gain will not be paid to you under any circumstances.

9.21 Right of rejection. We reserve the right to withhold, block, suspend, reject or delay any transaction (including remitting funds to you under a FX Conversion) in order to comply with Applicable Law. We may not accept your instructions for a Payment or FX Conversion if:

(a) no valid exchange rates are available from our correspondent banking partners, liquidity providers, or other financial institutions;

(b) any relevant anti-money laundering or counter financing of terrorism conversion limits are exceeded; or

9.22 Obligation to repay. You cannot have a negative balance in your Wallet. If any transactions or charges (including any chargeback, reversal of a transaction, or deduction of fees) take your Wallet below zero, you must immediately repay the amount owing to us, without requiring notice from us to do so. If you do not, we may suspend use of your Wallet or refuse to provide the Services to you. We may also take reasonable steps to recover any amount owing to us (such as taking legal action or using debt collection services) and charge you for the cost of these services.

9.23 We can deduct funds from your Wallet if you owe us money, including the Service Fees. You authorise us to deduct the Service Fees and any other amounts that you owe us from time to time from the funds in your Wallet. If you do not have enough funds in your Wallet to cover these amounts, we will not accept or process your instructions and may refuse to provide the Services to you. We may also, at your cost, take reasonable steps to recover the amount owing (such as taking legal action or using debt collection services).
