We will consider that you have accepted the proposed changes if you do not terminate these terms by giving us written notice during the notice period.

Some updates may require you to take steps to implement them. You agree to implement such updates as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt. In some cases (for example, if there are security risks), you will not be able to use the Airwallex Platform until you have implemented the update. If you have not implemented an update within 6 months of us releasing it, we may stop providing some of the Services to you or terminate these terms, by giving you two months’ prior written notice.
6. CUSTOMER DUE DILIGENCE AND VERIFICATION
6.1. To meet our obligations under Applicable Law, before we provide our Services to you, we will carry out customer due diligence checks on you, your directors, partners, ultimate beneficial owners, and employees (as relevant), Authorised Users and Additional Cardholders together with any parties involved in your transactions. You must provide us with complete, accurate, and up to date information at all times, including any information we require to verify the authenticity of transactions such as supporting invoices. You will promptly provide any additional information we require at any time, at the latest within two (2) Business Days of a request from us. You acknowledge that we may not provide you with any of our Services until we have received all the information we require. We will not be responsible for any loss arising out of your failure to do so.
6.2. You agree that we may make, directly or using a third party, any inquiries we believe are necessary to verify information you provide to us, including checking commercial databases or credit reports.

(c) if you fail to complete the verification process or if the verification is unsuccessful, you will not be able to use our Services or features which will require a Linked Account.
7. ABOUT THE SERVICES
7.1. Wallet. The ‘Wallet’ enables you to electronically hold, send and receive funds in the form of electronic money in the Supported Currencies 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.
7.2. Global Account. You may request Airwallex to open more than one Global Account for a particular Supported Currency.
7.3. How balances are represented. The funds collected through a Global Account will be transferred to your Wallet and be represented as part of the balance in your Wallet for each Supported Currency – there will not be a separate balance shown for a Global Account.
7.4. The UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme (‘FSCS’) does not apply to the funds in your Wallet or collected through a Global Account. You acknowledge that the Wallet is an electronic money account, not a bank account, and is therefore not covered by the FSCS.
7.5. As a firm regulated under the EMRs, Airwallex holds funds corresponding to electronic money in your Wallet in one or more segregated bank accounts separately from the funds of Airwallex. Whilst the funds are not held on trust for you, in the event of our insolvency, you will be paid from these segregated bank accounts in priority to other creditors in accordance with Applicable Law.
7.6. The electronic money in the Wallet:
(a) will not expire, except when your Wallet is closed – see clause 20 for more details;
(b) will not earn any interest or rewards; and
(c) can be withdrawn at any time, subject to certain conditions – see clause 11 for more details.
7.7. 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.
7.8. 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 these terms. The terms of the Issuing Terms shall be incorporated and form a part of these terms as if set out in these terms in full.
8. GETTING STARTED
8.1. Creating your Airwallex Profile. In order to use our Services, you must provide 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.
8.2. 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.
8.3. Signing up. You represent and warrant at the time of accepting these terms and on a continuing basis as follows:
(a) that these terms are accepted and executed by your duly authorised representative; and
(b) that all information supplied to us in applying for your Airwallex Profile and Global Account and subsequently is true, complete and accurate in all material respects and you will not omit or withhold any information which would render the information so supplied false, incomplete or inaccurate in any material respect.
8.4. 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, if we reasonably believe you have opened them in order to bypass any restrictions in the Services.
8.5. You confirm you are acting on your own account, not on behalf of any other person or legal entity. If you are entering into these terms 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.
8.6. 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.
9. AUTHORISED USER
9.1. You may appoint an ‘Authorised User’ (for example, any of your directors, officers, employees or professional advisors) to act on your behalf to enter into and confirm FX Conversions and Payouts under these terms. 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.
9.2. 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;
(c) we may refuse access to your Authorised User(s) if we are concerned about unauthorised or fraudulent access; and
(d) you will promptly report to us any infringements or unauthorised access to the Airwallex Platform, including the Webapp or Airwallex APIs.
10. RECEIVING PAYMENTS & LOADING MONEY INTO THE WALLET
10.1. Funding your Wallet.You can load funds to your Wallet by logging in to the Airwallex Platform and following the steps as prompted.
10.2. Global Account collection. If we have opened a Global Account for you, you may also receive funds to your Wallet through a Global Account.
10.3. In each case, you will ensure the funds are transferred using 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. 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.
10.4. 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.
10.5. We will credit your Wallet when we receive your funds. 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 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.
10.6. 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;
(c) you have provided us with incorrect instructions for the transaction;
(d) we suspect that a transaction is fraudulent, or is in breach of these terms or Applicable Law;
(e) we exercise our rights under clause 20.
You may request to configure your account so that any reversed transaction that results in a refund to you is paid in the source currency or the target currency, if supported. If the refund requires a FX Conversion, any associated FX Delta will be credited to or debited from the Customer’s Wallet as applicable.
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 11.15. If we reverse 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.
10.7. Where the funding/original transaction was paid for by 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.
11 MAKING PAYOUTS AND FX CONVERSIONS
11.1. Your instructions You may instruct us to make a FX Conversion or Payout at any time by providing the necessary details as prompted in the Airwallex Platform.
11.2. Confirmation. You must have sufficient funds in your Wallet in the relevant source currency to cover the full amount of any FX Conversion or Payout (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 20. When we are satisfied with your instructions we will issue you with a Confirmation.
11.3. When you instruct us to make an FX Conversion or Payout, the amount of the FX Conversion or Payout confirmed in the Confirmation becomes due and payable to us on the date indicated in the Confirmation. On this date your funds will cease to be deemed electronic money and your balance will be deducted accordingly. You will be issued with electronic money again in respect of an FX Conversion in the purchase currency on the Settlement Date.
11.4. FX Exchange Rate. You may access the indicative FX Exchange Rate for an FX Conversion through the Airwallex Platform (“Rate”). 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. Changes to the FX Exchange Rate depend on fluctuations in the financial markets outside our control.
11.5. Obtaining a rate or quote via API: You may request a Rate or a Quote by providing the necessary details via the Airwallex API.
(a) A Rate will be provided in accordance with clause 11.4 above. The Rate is for information purposes and cannot be used to book or execute a FX Transaction;
(b) A Quote can be obtained for one or more Validity Periods.
(i) To book a Spot FX Transaction using a Quote, you must submit the Quote ID specified in the relevant Quote when instructing Airwallex, through the Airwallex API, to make a FX Conversion or Payout in accordance with clause 11.
(ii) You must not request or use Quotes for speculation or arbitrage. Quotes can only be used for genuine, commercial purposes. If we suspect or reasonably believe that you are requesting and/or using Quotes in breach of this clause 11.5(b)(ii), we may remove your access to this functionality or limit your ability to request and use Quotes at our discretion.
(ii) We may impose limits on your ability to request and use Quotes as we determine appropriate in our sole discretion in order to manage Airwallex’s risk and exposure.
11.6. Pre-Fund Spot FX Transactions. For a Pre-Fund Spot FX Transaction, you simultaneously: (i) order and agree to the Pre-Fund Spot FX Transaction; (ii) agree to have your Intermediary Account debited by Airwallex; and (iii) agree to have your Intermediary Account credited or payout made by Airwallex. Consequently, the settlement of Pre-Fund Spot FX Transactions generally occurs simultaneously with the agreement to enter into the Pre-Fund Spot FX Transaction (or within two days in some circumstances).
11.7. Post-Fund Spot FX Transactions. For a Post-Fund Spot FX Transaction, you: (i) order and agree to the Post-Fund Spot FX Transaction on a date (“Order Date”); (ii) agree to have your Intermediary Account debited by Airwallex by Settlement Cut-Off; and (iii) agree to have your Intermediary Account credited or payout made by Airwallex simultaneously with or immediately after the relevant debit is completed. Consequently, the Settlement Cut-Off of the Post-Fund Spot FX Transaction will generally be on either: (i) the Order Date; or (ii) up to two days after the Order Date.
11.8. Open Position Limit. If you request and are granted Post-Fund capability, you will be able to book Post-Fund Spot FX Transactions up to a certain value (“Open Position Limit”), which will be specified by us. You may be required to provide an Advance Payout Deposit in order to book a Post Fund Spot FX Transaction. If you fail to fund your Post-Fund Spot FX Transactions in accordance with this clause 11, we may suspend or cancel an Open Position Limit in our sole discretion and/or take steps to unwind the overdue Post-Fund Spot FX Transaction at the prevailing FX Exchange Rate and pass on all associated losses and costs to you.
11.9. Forward Contracts. If you are approved to enter into Forward Contracts, 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.
11.10. Settlement requirements. The issuance of a Confirmation means that the FX Conversion or Payout is final and binding and cannot be cancelled (other than in accordance with clause 11.18 or 11.19 below). We will deduct the amount of your FX Conversion or Payment from your Wallet immediately at the time we issue a Confirmation. However, if you are approved to post-fund you must:
(a) for an FX Conversion (or Payout, if the Payout is linked to a FX Conversion): deposit any amount specified in the Confirmation in cleared funds by Settlement Cut-Off; and
(b) for a Payout: ensure there are sufficient cleared funds in the Payout currency available to Airwallex by the Payout Date.
11.11. Date. We will deduct the amount of your FX Conversion or Payout from your Wallet when we issue a Confirmation or, if you are approved to post-fund the FX Conversion or Payout, at the same time that we receive the relevant funds from you. If that date is not a Business Day, or if we receive your instructions after 5pm on a Business Day, then the date may be adjusted by us to the next day that is a Business Day.
11.12. Execution time. If you are making a Payout and/or FX Conversion, we will remit the Payout and/or effect the FX Conversion as soon as possible. Generally, we will remit funds to a payee’s payment service provider within 24 hours after we accept your instructions. 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.
11.13. Failed FX Conversions and Payouts. We may in our sole discretion, acting reasonably, decide to cancel the FX Conversion or Payout, or delay the FX Conversion or Payout by rolling it over to the next Settlement Date or Payout 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; or
(b) failure of Payout in the Payout currency by the Customer to Airwallex on any Payout.
11.14. Transaction limits. We may apply limits to the amount of any one or a series of Payouts, and we will tell you if we do so. For example, we may apply limits if you ask us to or if we reasonably think it would help manage the risk of fraud in a proportionate way.
11.15. Right of rejection. We reserve the right to withhold, reject, or delay any transaction 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
(c) you have not complied with your obligations under these terms including the Acceptable Use Policy.
11.16. 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.
11.17.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).
11.18. Cancelling a FX Transaction. After a FX Transaction Confirmation is issued but before Settlement of the FX Transaction, the Customer may make a Cancellation Request via the Airwallex API or by contacting your Airwallex Account Manager, which will be confirmed in a Cancellation Confirmation issued by Airwallex. Any delta between the FX Exchange Rate quoted in the Confirmation and the FX Exchange Rate applicable to a Reverse Conversion in furtherance of a Cancellation Request (“Cancellation Delta”) will be debited from or credited to the Customer’s Global Account, as applicable. The Customer may not withdraw, amend, or cancel a Cancellation Request after Airwallex has issued a Cancellation Confirmation. If the Cancellation Request is made after Settlement Cut-Off, Airwallex may charge a fee for late cancellation.
11.19. Cancelling a Payout. You may request to cancel a Payout before Settlement of the Payout by making a Cancellation Request via the Airwallex API or by contacting your Airwallex Account Manager. If a Cancellation Request is granted, Airwallex will issue a Cancellation Confirmation. Where the Payout has an associated FX Conversion, any Cancellation Delta that arises from reversing the FX Conversion will be debited from or credited to the Customer’s Global Account, as applicable. The Customer may not withdraw, amend, or cancel a Cancellation Request after Airwallex has issued a Cancellation Confirmation. If the Cancellation Request is made after Settlement Cut-Off, Airwallex may charge a fee for late cancellation.
12. SAFETY AND SECURITY
12.1. Keep your Wallet safe. In order to use the Airwallex Platform, you (or your Authorised User) must log in using the unique password and any multiple-factor authentication: for example, we may require your Authorised User to authenticate that they are the Authorised User when logging in to the Airwallex Platform, or for certain transactions made using the Airwallex Platform. You must store all log-in information and passwords to access the Airwallex Platform safely and securely at all times and only allow Authorised Users to access the Services.
12.2. Contact us if you suspect your Wallet may be compromised. You must contact us immediately by email to [email protected] and change your password if you suspect:
(a) your Wallet, Global Account, or access to the Airwallex Platform or other security credentials are stolen, lost, used without your authorisation or otherwise compromised; or
(b) someone else finds out your log-in information and password for your Wallet.
Any undue delay in notifying us may affect the security of your Wallet, Global Account, or access to the Airwallex Platform and result in you being responsible for financial losses.

You must contact us immediately by email to [email protected] to report any (i) suspected or actual unauthorised transaction, (ii) incorrectly initiated or executed transactions such as those having not been executed or having been executed late, (iii) certain charges and interest you are liable to pay as a result of such transactions, or (iv) other security concerns regarding the Airwallex Platform. We may be able to refund money you have lost if the transaction is due to our mistake, fraud, or errors with your transaction (see clauses 12.4, 12.7, 12.9 and 12.10). If you do not notify us of any unauthorised or incorrectly initiated or executed transactions or transactions which have not been executed or were executed late or of certain charges and interest you are liable to pay as a result of such transactions, without undue delay, and at the latest within 13 months (or within 3 months if you are a Corporate Customer) of the debit date of the transaction, on becoming aware of any unauthorised or incorrectly executed payment transaction, you may lose the right to have the matter corrected or money refunded. You also may not be able to claim a refund if:
(a) you have breached these terms;
(b) you gave us incorrect instructions for the transaction (we may reasonably assist you to recover the funds, where possible, but do not guarantee that this would be successful); or
(c) you are a Corporate Customer and any losses are not the direct result of our act or omission.
12.4. Unauthorised transactions. We will refund you as soon as practicable, and, except as permitted under PSRs, in any event no later than the end of the business day following the day on which we become aware of the unauthorised transaction, for an unauthorised transaction and restore you to the position you would have been in had the unauthorised transaction not taken place, subject to the following:
(a) if you are a Consumer, Micro-enterprise or Charity, where the Services, your Wallet, Global Account, or any log-in information and passwords are used without your authorisation you will be liable for the first GBP £35 of any unauthorised transaction if we believe you should have been aware of the unauthorised use. We will not hold you liable for the first GBP £35 if the unauthorised transaction was caused either by our act or omission, or those of a third party expressly carrying out activities on our behalf. Your liability for the first GBP £35 also does not apply to any unauthorised transactions made after you have notified us that your Wallet or Global Account may have been compromised (using the details given by us);
(b) if you are a Corporate Customer, where the Services, your Wallet, Global Account, or any log-in information and passwords are used without your authorisation you will be liable for any losses arising out of that unauthorised transaction if we believe you should have been aware of the unauthorised use;
(c) if you do not promptly notify us of security issues:
(i) in line with the timeframes of clause 12.3, you will be liable for any losses you incur up to the time that you notify us; and
(ii) within 13 months from the date of the Payout (or within 3 months if you are a Corporate Customer), we will have no liability for the unauthorised transaction;
(d) if we find that you or your Authorised Users, or anyone else acting on your behalf, has acted fraudulently (or, if you are a Corporate Customer, recklessly) we will not refund you in any circumstances;
(e) you will be solely liable for all losses if you have (i) acted fraudulently, (ii) with intent or gross negligence compromised the security of your Wallet or the Airwallex Platform or (iii) if you are a Corporate Customer, failed to, or if you are a Consumer, Micro-enterprise or Charity, with intent or gross negligence failed to, comply with your obligations to use them in accordance with these terms, and to take all reasonable steps to keep all log-in information and passwords confidential and secure;
(f) provided we are able to provide a refund in accordance with Applicable Law; and
