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.

3. Purchase and activation of your Card
3.1. To apply for, and use, a Card you must be at least 18 and a resident of the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Norway, Denmark, Italy, Portugal, Greece, Malta or Bulgaria.
3.2. Cards may be obtained and activated via the Coinmotion App after registration and successful KYC checks.
3.3. When you receive your Physical Card, you must sign it immediately and then log onto the Coinmotion App to activate it using your activation code sent to you by email when you ordered your card. You must register your Card within the Coinmotion App by loading a minimum of €10.
3.4. Regardless of the number of Cards you have, you are permitted to have only one Account where your Available Balance is located. If we discover that you do have more than one Account, we may block your Card and terminate this Agreement.
3.5. Provided we have been able to undertake KYC, you shall receive an activation confirmation by email or on your Coinmotion App and you will be able to use the 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 Program Manager with.
4.2. You must notify Program Manager of any change in your Personal Details as soon as possible by contacting Customer Services or updating the details in the Coinmotion App. 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, or Program Manager, 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 Card, you authorise us and Program Manager to undertake electronic identity verification checks on you either directly or using relevant third parties.

5. Using your Card
5.1. TPML is not responsible for any funds that have not been loaded onto the Card and does not provide services for loading funds to the Card. Information regarding loading funds can be found on the Coinmotion Application.
5.2. We reserve the right to request KYC documents and verification of your source of funds at any point.
5.3. If enabled, you will have the option to transfer your Available Balance or part balance from your Card or Account to other Accounts that may be held with us (i.e. a “Card-to-Card” transfer). If you instruct us to make a transfer from your Account to another person’s Account, the requested amount will be debited from your Account and credited to the other person’s Account in accordance with your instructions. You may incur a Card-to-Card Transfer Fee for this transaction.

5.4.Your use of the Card is subject to the fees and limits detailed in the Fees & Limits Schedule, which shall be deducted from the Available Balance. Fees and limits may vary according to the type of Card.
5.5. Unless we inform you otherwise, you can use the Card at any Merchant who accepts the Scheme to carry out Transactions.
5.6. 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 Card with other payment methods.
5.7. 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.
5.8. 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 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.
5.9. Your 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 Card.
5.10. 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.
5.11. You must not use the Card for any illegal purposes.

5. Authorising Transactions
5.12. You will need to give your consent to each Transaction by, where applicable, a) using your PIN or other security code personal to you; b) providing the Card details and/or providing any other details personal to you and/or your Card. Once you have given such consent to the Transaction, it will be deemed to be authorised.
5.13. The time of receipt of a Transaction order is when it is received by our processing partner. If a Transaction order is received after 4pm on a Business Day then it will be deemed to have been received on the next Business day.
5.14.Once a Transaction has been authorised by you and received by us, it cannot be revoked.
5.15. Certain Merchants may not accept payments made through the Card and we accept no liability for this: it is your responsibility to check the restrictions of each Merchant.
5.16. Your ability to use or access the Card may occasionally be interrupted, for example if Program Manager or any third-party service provider need to carry out maintenance on our systems or websites. Please contact Customer Services should you experience any problems using your Card and these will be resolved as soon as possible.
6. Additional Cards
6.1. At our sole discretion and provided we have received sufficient KYC information/documents (in accordance with condition 3.5), you may be eligible to apply for an Additional Card for use by an Additional Cardholder by contacting Customer Services or accessing the relevant area in the Coinmotion App.
6.2. Additional Cardholders must be at least 18 years old or, provided that you are legally responsible for them, at least 13 years old. Transactions by persons under 18 years of age may not be allowed by some Merchants but in all cases, you shall be responsible for any use of any Additional Cards by such persons. We may request KYC for each Additional Cardholder as required.

6.3. If your Additional Card application is successful, we will send you an Additional Card, which will be subject to a Fee and which you may give to the nominated Additional Cardholder for their exclusive use, provided that:

i. you provide the Additional Cardholder with a copy of these terms and conditions (which will then bind use by both of you);

iii. you retain the Primary Card for your sole and exclusive use in accordance with this Agreement;
iv. all Transactions made on the Additional Card shall be considered as having been authorised directly by the Primary Cardholder, who shall be responsible for such Transactions and any applicable Fees.

6.5. You must ensure that any Additional Cardholders under 18 years of age do not use a Card for any purpose for which the minimum age is at least 18 e.g. purchase of alcohol, adult entertainment or gambling.
6.6.Additional Cards can only be issued to EEA citizens.
