IMPORTANT NOTICE
These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) contain important information governing your relationship with us in connection with your Account and the Services (each as defined in this document). Additional terms and conditions may apply to certain Services. Any such additional terms and conditions are supplemental to and form an integral part of these Terms.
Nothing in these Terms or any other statements contained herein shall be construed as legal, tax or financial advice. We do not act as your financial adviser and shall not be regarded as acting in such capacity. You should consult your own independent professional advisers before entering into any transaction and should only enter into a transaction if you fully understand its nature, the contractual relationship you are entering into, and all applicable terms and conditions.

6.3. Credentials and Security
You shall also bear full responsibility for the safekeeping and confidentiality of any credentials, access codes, PINs, passwords, authentication means and other security mechanisms used to access the Account and the Services, including credentials of third-party platform accounts (such as Telegram), where such accounts are used to access the Services.
6.4. Irreversibility of Transactions
You acknowledge and agree that transactions carried out through the Services using your device or credentials may be irreversible.
We are not obliged to reverse, suspend or compensate for any such transactions if they were initiated or executed as a result of the loss, compromise or unauthorised use of your device or credentials.
6.5. Loss of Device and Unauthorised Access
If you discover that your device has been lost, stolen, or accessed or used in an unauthorised manner, you must immediately contact the Service support team and notify us of such loss, theft or unauthorised access/use via the communication channels specified in the Access Interfaces, including, without limitation, by contacting [email protected].
In addition, you must promptly take all reasonable measures to protect the Account, including changing passwords, access codes and other authentication means.
7. FEES
7.1. Your use of the Services may be subject to certain fees (Fees) which, where applicable, may be debited from your Wallet, Smart Contract Vault or Virtual Account balance (as applicable), deducted upon settlement of Card Balances, upon completion of Swap Transactions, or otherwise charged to you separately.
You undertake to promptly pay any Fees due upon our request. In the event of non-payment, we reserve the right to suspend your access to the Services until all outstanding Fees have been fully settled.
The list of applicable Fees is set out in the relevant fee schedules and is published through the Access Interfaces, including the website (Website) and Mini-App. The Group may, at its sole discretion, introduce additional Fees or otherwise amend, adjust or update the Fees from time to time by publishing updated information through the Access Interfaces.
7.2. All applicable Fees set out in the fee schedules and through the Access Interfaces are exclusive of any applicable taxes, duties or similar mandatory charges payable under Applicable Law. The actual Fee charged may be increased to account for any such taxes or charges where required by Applicable Law.
7.3. All Fees paid are non-refundable, unless otherwise expressly provided in these Terms or required by Applicable Law.
7.4. Your obligation to pay any amounts under these Terms is independent of, and not contingent upon, any of your other payment obligations.
8. RIGHTS OF NETTING, SET-OFF AND LIEN
8.1. Netting of Obligations
If, on any day, you and we have payment or delivery obligations in the same fiat currency or the same Acceptable Token in respect of two or more transactions, we may elect to settle such obligations on a net basis, in which case such obligations shall be automatically satisfied and discharged.
Where the aggregate amount payable by one party exceeds the aggregate amount payable by the other party, the relevant obligations shall be replaced by an obligation of the party owing the greater amount to pay the excess to the other party.
8.2. Right of Set-Off
In addition to our rights under Clause 8.1, we may, at any time during the term of these Terms or following their termination, without prior notice to you, set off any amount or other obligation owed by you (or, where the client consists of more than one person, by any one or more of such persons jointly or severally) to the Group against any amount owed by the Group to you, whether or not such obligations are matured or contingent, and irrespective of the currency, asset or place of payment, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.
8.3. Enforcement Against Assets in Case of Shortfall
If, following any set-off, a balance becomes due and payable by you to the Group:
- (a) you authorise us, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to apply, appropriate, realise, debit, or otherwise use any fiat funds, digital assets, balances, or other values reflected, recorded, or made available within the Services or through the Group’s technical or contractual arrangements with third-party service providers, to the extent necessary to satisfy such outstanding balance;
- (b) if any shortfall remains after the application of the measures set out above, you shall immediately pay to the Group an amount equal to such remaining shortfall.
8.4. Lien
To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Group may exercise a general lien over any property, funds, balances or other values of the User which, for any reason, are reflected, recorded or otherwise made available within the Services or through the Group’s technical or contractual arrangements with third-party service providers.
For the avoidance of doubt, any reference to possession or control under this Section shall be deemed to arise solely through such technical or contractual arrangements with third-party service providers and shall not imply possession or control of users’ private keys or Digital Assets by the Group.
Where legally and technically permissible, the Group may cause such property to be realised through applicable third-party service providers and apply the proceeds, after deduction of reasonable costs, towards the satisfaction of any amounts owed by the User to the Group.
8.5. For the purposes of this Clause 8, we may carry out any necessary currency or asset conversions at rates that we reasonably consider appropriate under the prevailing market conditions.
8.6. Our rights under this Clause 8 are in addition to, and do not limit, any other rights of set-off, netting, combination of accounts, lien, retention, withholding or similar rights or requirements to which we may be entitled under these Terms or by operation of Applicable Law.
9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
9.1. You acknowledge and agree that:
- (a) the trademarks, logos of the Group and its affiliates, and any other logos, service marks, product names and other proprietary indicia used in the Access Interfaces and/or in connection with the Services are the property of the Group, its affiliates and/or third-party licensors (collectively, the “Trade Marks”);
- (b) all intellectual property rights and other proprietary rights in and to the Services, their functionality, content, software, interfaces, design, and any updates, modifications and derivative materials are owned by us and/or licensed to us by third parties;

- (d) you shall not reproduce, copy, distribute, republish, publicly display, broadcast, hyperlink, transmit, adapt, modify, create derivative works from, otherwise commercially exploit any part of the Access Interfaces and/or the Services, or store any part thereof in an information retrieval system, without our prior written permission, except as expressly permitted by these Terms and/or applicable law.
9.2. Referral links and codes.
- (a) As part of the Services, you may be provided with referral links, codes or other invitation identifiers (the “Referral Materials”).
- (b) The Referral Materials form part of the Services and/or their functionality and may include elements owned by us and/or our partners. You are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable right to use the Referral Materials solely for the purposes contemplated by the applicable referral program and these Terms.
- (c) You must not: (i) modify, obscure or remove branding/identification elements within the Referral Materials; (ii) use the Referral Materials in any misleading manner or in violation of third-party rights or applicable law; (iii) sell, resell, sublicense or otherwise transfer the Referral Materials; (iv) use automated or abusive distribution/boosting methods (including bots or spam campaigns), unless expressly permitted by us.
- (d) We may change the format and rules applicable to the Referral Materials, or suspend or discontinue them, at any time.
10. RULES OF CONDUCT AND RISK MANAGEMENT
10.1. Prohibited Activities
Without prejudice to any other provisions of these Terms, the User shall not, whether directly or indirectly, and shall not knowingly or otherwise authorise, permit or assist any third party to:
- (a) use the Access Interfaces to the Services to engage in electronic spamming, mass unsolicited communications or similar activities;
- (b) use the Services to carry out any unlawful or illegal activities, including, without limitation, money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud or other unlawful conduct;
- (c) use the Access Interfaces to the Services to upload, transmit or distribute any content containing viruses, malicious code, malware or other unlawful or illegal content;
- (d) modify, adapt, alter, combine or incorporate, in whole or in part, the Access Interfaces, software or any other elements of the Services into any other program, application or system without the Group’s prior permission;
- (e) disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the Access Interfaces, the Services or any of their components;
- (f) use the Access Interfaces or the Services in any manner that infringes or may infringe the intellectual property rights of the Group or any third party;
- (g) use the Access Interfaces or the Services in any manner that may damage, disable, disrupt, impair or compromise the Access Interfaces, the Services, their systems or security, or any other computer systems or devices used in connection with the provision of the Services, interfere with any other User’s use of the Services, or cause harm to the reputation of the Group, its affiliates or Partners;
- (h) engage in any other activity which, in the Group’s reasonable opinion, is inappropriate and may cause harm to the Services, other Users, the Group’s Partners or the Group itself, or which otherwise violates Applicable Law; or
- (i) engage in abusive, threatening and/or violent conduct or use abusive, threatening and/or violent language towards employees of the Service, employees of the Service’s Partners and/or other Users of the Services.
10.2. Consequences of Breach
Any breach by the User of Clause 10.1 or any other obligation expressly imposed on the User under this Section 10 may, at the Group’s discretion and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, result in the suspension, restriction or termination of the User’s access to the Services, blocking of the User’s Account, refusal to provide certain Services and/or the application of any other measures available under these Terms and/or Applicable Law.
For the avoidance of doubt, the mere existence of any circumstance or risk indicator referred to in Clause 10.3 shall not, in itself, constitute a breach of these Terms by the User unless and until such breach is established following the relevant review.
10.3. Transaction Monitoring and Risk Management
10.3.1. General Monitoring
The Group may monitor the use of the Services and any transactions conducted or attempted through the Services, whether on a real-time or retrospective basis, for the purposes of risk management, fraud prevention, compliance with Applicable Law, protection of the Group and its Partners, and detection of unusual, irregular, potentially unlawful or abusive use of the Services.
For these purposes, the Group may apply internal risk indicators, transaction monitoring, behavioural analysis, blockchain transaction screening, risk scoring and other reasonable risk-management procedures, controls and tools.
10.3.2. Large Deposits and Subsequent Disposal of Funds
Where a User makes one or more related deposits of Digital Assets to the Custodian Wallet with an aggregate value equivalent to USD 2,000 (two thousand United States dollars) or more and, within 48 (forty-eight) hours following such deposit or deposits, initiates or attempts to initiate a withdrawal, transfer or other disposal of all or a material part of such funds, the Group may treat such activity as an indicator of increased transactional risk requiring additional review.
For the purposes of this Clause 10.3.2, multiple deposits may be treated as related where, having regard to their timing, source, originating blockchain addresses, counterparties, transaction pattern or other relevant circumstances, the Group reasonably determines that such deposits form part of the same transaction or a series of connected transactions.
The occurrence of such indicator shall not, by itself, constitute a breach of these Terms by the User and shall not constitute an independent basis for the permanent withholding, deduction, appropriation or other permanent deprivation of the User’s funds.
10.3.3. Additional Review
Upon identification of the activity described in Clause 10.3.2, or any other unusual, irregular, potentially unlawful, fraudulent or abusive activity, or any other circumstances giving rise to increased transactional, compliance or financial crime risk, the Group may conduct an additional review of the User and the relevant transactions.
For the purposes of such review, the Group may, without limitation:
- (a) analyse the nature, sequence, volume, purpose and other circumstances of completed or contemplated transactions;
- (b) verify the source and origin of the relevant funds and Digital Assets;
- (c) analyse the User’s transaction history and any addresses, wallets and counterparties associated with the relevant transactions;
- (d) conduct, either directly or through third parties, blockchain transaction screening, risk scoring and other risk-assessment procedures;
- (e) request from the User such additional information, explanations and supporting documents as the Group may reasonably consider necessary for the purposes of the review, including information and documents evidencing the source and origin of funds, ownership or control of relevant wallets or addresses, and the economic purpose of the relevant transactions; and/or
- (f) conduct such other reasonable checks or reviews as may be necessary for the purposes of risk management, fraud prevention, compliance with AML/CTF requirements, sanctions requirements and other Applicable Law.
The User shall provide the requested information, explanations and documents within a reasonable period and shall provide such cooperation as may reasonably be required for the purposes of the review.
Failure to provide the requested information or documents, provision of incomplete, inaccurate, false or misleading information, or refusal to cooperate may be taken into account by the Group when assessing the relevant activity and determining the outcome of the review.
10.3.4. Temporary Protective Measures
During the period of any review conducted under this Section 10.3, the Group may, where reasonably necessary for risk-management purposes and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:
- (a) suspend or delay the execution of the relevant transaction;
- (b) delay the processing of any withdrawal or transfer request;
- (c) temporarily restrict the User’s ability to dispose of the relevant amount of funds;
- (d) impose temporary transaction limits or other restrictions in relation to the relevant Account or Services; and/or
- (e) take any other temporary protective measures available under these Terms or permitted by Applicable Law.
Any review under this Section shall be conducted within a reasonable period, having regard to the nature and complexity of the relevant circumstances, the scope and timeliness of the information and documents provided by the User, and any requirements or response times applicable to the Group’s Partners or competent authorities.
Any temporary restrictions imposed under this Clause 10.3.4 shall remain in place only for so long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which they were imposed, or for such other period as may be required under Applicable Law or pursuant to any binding requirement of a competent authority or the Group’s Partners.
The occurrence of the indicator described in Clause 10.3.2 shall not, by itself, result in the automatic application of any fee, charge, withholding or deduction in respect of the User’s funds or Digital Assets.
10.3.5. Outcome of Review
Following completion of the review, the Group may:
- (a) permit the relevant transaction to proceed and remove any restrictions previously imposed;
- (b) request additional information or documents and continue the review where the information available is insufficient to make a reasonably informed determination;
- (c) maintain, modify or remove any temporary restrictions applicable to the relevant transaction, amount of funds, Account or Services;
- (d) reject, cancel, delay or restrict the relevant transaction;
- (e) impose additional limits or conditions on the User’s continued use of the relevant Services; and/or
- (f) apply any other measures available under these Terms, including the measures provided for under Section 13, where the review establishes grounds for the application of such measures.
10.3.6. Costs, Losses and Withholding
Where, following the review, the Group reasonably determines that the relevant activity constitutes a breach of these Terms or other improper or abusive use of the Services, and such activity has resulted, or is reasonably expected to result, in additional costs, expenses, fees, penalties, losses or other liabilities being incurred by the Group or its Partners, the Group may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, withhold an appropriate amount from the User’s funds towards the coverage of such costs, expenses, fees, penalties, losses or other liabilities.
The amount of any such withholding shall be determined by the Group having regard to the nature and circumstances of the identified breach and shall be reasonably proportionate to the costs, expenses, fees, penalties, losses or other liabilities actually incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Group or its Partners as a result of the relevant breach.
In no circumstances shall the amount withheld under this Clause 10.3.6 exceed 10% (ten per cent) of the amount of funds subject to the relevant review.
The relevant amount may be withheld from the User’s available balance or set off in accordance with Section 8 of these Terms.
Where the review does not establish grounds for such withholding, no withholding shall be applied and any funds temporarily subject to restrictions shall be released from such restrictions, except where the continued application of such restrictions is required under Applicable Law, pursuant to a binding requirement of a competent authority, or under any other applicable provision of these Terms.
