6. QB Payment Account functionality
Collections
6.1 You can collect euros on your Wallet from other QB Payment Accounts or third parties. You or third parties can make payment transactions from accounts held with other financial institutions to your Wallet using the SEPA Network or by using Visa Direct Credit Transaction ("Visa Direct OCT").
6.2 Collections from other QB Payment Accounts or other financial institutions are generally credited to your QB Payment Account immediately upon receipt by Intergiro of such funds. Occasionally it may take a little longer due to required scans or checks Intergiro is obliged to perform on the funds, such as due to the anti-money laundering legislation or for the prevention of fraud.
6.3 Sometimes Intergiro receives recall requests from the payer’s financial institution in respect of a payment transaction intended for your QB Payment Account. You hereby explicitly grant Intergiro the authorisation to return such funds according to the recall request when such funds have not yet been credited to your QB Payment Account.
6.4 It is important that the payer provides the correct payment details to your QB Payment Account for Intergiro to credit your QB Payment Account correctly.
6.5 Intergiro aims to process your Collections as fast as possible, but occasionally your funds may be held up by third-party financial institutions. In such cases, Intergiro regrettably is unable to influence the speed of the transaction.
Payouts
6.6 Using the QB App, you can create payment orders on your QB Payment Account to make Payouts using the SEPA Network.
6.7 To create a payment order you generally need to provide the following information:
- full name of the recipient;
- recipient’s account details;
- amount; and
- payment purpose.
6.8 Upon creation of a payment order, you need to submit the payment order and authenticate yourself to Intergiro for security reasons. Intergiro will consider that you, by authenticating yourself, gave Intergiro your consent and authorised (i) the execution of the Payout in accordance with the payment order you have submitted to Intergiro, and (ii) the debiting of any related fees.
6.9 In order for the payment transaction to be executed, you need a sufficient balance (including any fees and charges) in your Wallet. It is not possible to overdraw the QB Payment Account.
6.10 You acknowledge that neither a payment order nor a Payout can be cancelled or reversed once Intergiro has received the payment order. Intergiro receives your payment order immediately upon your submission of the payment order if you submitted it at the latest 14.30 CET on a banking day, and Intergiro will in such case execute the Payout on the same banking day. If you submit the payment order after 14.30 CET, Intergiro receives the payment order the next banking day and will execute it on that day. Public holidays may delay the execution of the Payout until the next working day.
6.11 The recipient generally receives a Payout on the next banking day. However, a Payout may be delayed if the payment order has to be assessed by Intergiro due to legal compliance reasons, such as transaction monitoring requirements.
6.12 Intergiro may, in its sole discretion, reject a payment order if it would be in breach of the Agreement or any applicable legislation, or if Intergiro suspects that the execution of the Payout would be prohibited, for example in breach of international sanctions.
6.13 You, as the holder of the QB Payment Account, are responsible to provide the correct account details to the recipient. This is important as neither payment orders nor Payouts can be cancelled or reversed. Whilst Quickbit’s Customer Support will try its best to help you recover your funds in circumstances where incorrect recipient account details have been provided, there is a risk that you may lose any funds sent to the wrong account.
7. Additional Account functionality
Cards
7.1 If Intergiro’s card functionality is available to your QB Payment Account in the QB App you can choose to add a VISA card to your QB Payment Account. You order the card, which is a physical or virtual debit card (as applicable), issued by Intergiro in accordance with Intergiro’s license from VISA and branded with Quickbit using the QB App (the “Card”). You will be able to use your Card to purchase goods and services in stores (for physical Cards) and/or online where VISA is accepted. These Terms and Conditions are applicable to your order and use of your Card.
7.2 If your Card is lost, stolen or is otherwise out of your possession or control (including if you suspect or learn that an unauthorised third party has access to or uses your Card or knows the details of your Card, such as card number, expiration date, and/or the 3-digit CVC number on the back of your Card) you must immediately freeze your Card through the QB App. If you are unable for any reason to access the QB App you must immediately contact Quickbit’s Customer Support and report your Card as lost/stolen. If your Card is lost/stolen outside of Quickbit’s Customer Support operational hours and you are unable to access the QB App, please follow this link in order to freeze your Card: [link to website].
There are two ways to unfreeze your Card, either by (a) using the QB App or, by (b) contacting Quickbit’s Customer Support during operational hours. If you would like to permanently terminate the Card, you will have to contact Quickbit’s Customer Support during operational hours.
If you would like to block your Card, i.e. permanently terminate it, you can do that by using the QB App or by contacting Quickbit’s Customer Support during operational hours.
7.3 A physical Card is sent to the delivery address confirmed by you. Please note that you will be responsible for providing the correct address for the card delivery. Upon receipt of the physical Card, you activate the Card in the QB App and choose the PIN code. You access your virtual Card using the QB App. Virtual Cards are active already upon issuance and do not have a PIN code.
7.4 Intergiro may freeze your Card if there is a risk of non-secure use of the Card or if Intergiro suspects that there has been an unauthorised use of your Card. You will always be notified in such circumstances. Intergiro may subsequently decide (in its sole discretion) whether to reactivate your existing Card or replace it with a new Card.
7.5 You may use your Card to purchase goods or services or, in case of a physical Card, to withdraw cash (“Card Transaction”). Please ensure that there is sufficient balance (including any fees and charges) on your QB Payment Account, otherwise your Card Transaction will be rejected. It is not possible to overdraw the QB Payment Account.
7.6 To make Card Transactions with a physical card, you use chip and PIN code or by touching the Card at the payment terminal (contactless), or in case of a physical or virtual Card, enter the details of the Card (the card number, expiry date and CVC number) online where VISA is accepted or by way of telephone order (MOTO) payments. You can view the virtual card details in the QB App.
7.7 The following actions will be considered as you giving Intergiro your consent to (i) the execution of a Card Transaction and (ii) the debiting of any related fees or charges:
- using chip and the PIN code;
- touching or inserting the Card at a payment terminal, electronic card reader or ATM machine and using the PIN code or taking other actions as instructed by the terminal/machine (such as pressing a button);
- entering card details (card number, expiry date and CVC number);
- entering into an agreement and providing card details for the payment of recurring services, such as subscribing for online services which are debited regularly; or
- any similar actions as the ones stated above.
7.8 A Card Transaction cannot be cancelled or reversed once Intergiro has received the payment order, which generally takes place directly when you purchase the goods or services from the merchant.
7.9 Each Card Transaction is settled in EUR. This means that if you make a purchase in another currency than euro, a currency conversion is required (and will take place automatically). Such currency conversion is executed by VISA or another third party and Intergiro cannot influence the rate of such currency conversion. Consequently, neither Intergiro nor Quickbit assume any liability for any loss you may incur due to the currency conversion. Intergiro is not able to refund transactions without an exact amount, so you are advised to only use your Card for Card Transactions with exact amounts.
7.10 The expiry date of your Card is set out on the Card. Please ensure to order a new Card using the QB App before such expiry date to ensure that there will not be a period where you cannot use a Card.
8. Rejected transactions, refunds and unauthorised use
8.1 Intergiro may reject any transaction (including a Payout, a Collection and a Card Transaction, jointly a “Transaction”), made to or from your QB Payment Account, if Intergiro believes that it is in breach of the Agreement or of any applicable legislation, rules or regulation.
8.2 If you experience an error with any Transaction made to or from your QB Payment Account, please contact Quickbit’s Customer Support as soon as possible and no later than ten (10) banking days after the Transaction was executed. Quickbit’s Customer Support will help you resolve any issues, however no guarantee is granted for the success of such measures as the error may have been caused by a third party outside of Intergiro’s and Quickbit’s control. Where Intergiro does have control, Intergiro may reverse an erroneous transaction or refund any overpayments if Intergiro considers it appropriate. A return, depending on the circumstances, may entail third-party fees at your cost, meaning that the returned transaction amounts may be lower than the original transaction. Please note that if you contact Quickbit’s Customer Support later than ten (10) banking days after you made or received an erroneous Transaction, it is unlikely that Quickbit’s Customer Support nor Intergiro will be able to help resolve the matter. Intergiro aims to refund or reverse the Transaction or to let you know that it cannot be refunded or reversed (as applicable) within thirty (30) days of you filing your request with Quickbit’s Customer Support. Please note that this timeframe may need to be extended as necessary due to the complexity of the request.
8.3 If it comes to Intergiro’s attention that funds have been incorrectly credited to your QB Payment Account, you will be contacted as soon as possible by Quickbit’s Customer Support and steps will be taken to help the payer to recover such funds. This may involve reversing the incorrect transaction or refunding any overpayments on your QB Payment Account. If you notice any incorrect crediting of funds on the QB Payment Account, please contact Quickbit’s Customer Support.
8.4 If you become aware of or suspect that someone has unauthorisedly used or stolen from your QB Payment Account you must contact Quickbit’s Customer Support as soon as you are able, otherwise you will be liable for such an amount. If you are notified about any suspicious Transactions on your QB Payment Account, you need to inform Quickbit’s Customer Support within thirteen (13) months from such notification that such transaction was unauthorised.
8.5 Upon your notification Intergiro will investigate the flagged Transactions. Intergiro will generally refund the funds to your QB Payment Account, unless the unauthorised Transaction could take place due to your failure to protect personalised security credentials (including without limitation ordinary or one-time passwords, QB Payment Account credentials, Card security details or means of communication used with Intergiro or Quickbit for authentication purposes). In this case, you are liable for the amount, up to SEK 400. If the unauthorised transaction could take place due to your breach of the Agreement intentionally or with gross negligence, you are liable for the amount, up to SEK 12,000. If you acted particularly reprehensible, you will be liable for the full amount.
8.6 It is very important that you immediately notify us if your Card is lost, stolen or is otherwise out of your possession or control. Intergiro will refund the funds charged from your QB Payment Account by way of Card Transactions only after you have notified us that a Card is stolen, lost or otherwise out of possession or control by way set out in clause 7.2 above. If you, acting fraudulently or grossly negligent, have caused or contributed to the unauthorised transaction, Intergiro will however not refund such unauthorised transaction.
8.7 Intergiro reserves the right to debit the QB Payment Account with the refunded amount should Intergiro believe that the refund was requested regarding an authorised transaction.
8.8 If an executed Payout is rejected by the beneficiary’s bank and transferred back to Intergiro, Intergiro will create a Collection into your QB Payment Account. Such a return, depending on the circumstances, may entail third-party fees at your cost, meaning that the returned transaction amounts may be lower than the original transaction.
Visa Direct OCT
8.9 You hereby refuse a Visa Direct OCT if it was (a) received by mistake, or (b) a duplicate. Further, you understand and accept that Intergiro is obliged to retrieve these funds and reverse the Visa Direct OCT after it was received, if the transaction was:
- settled to you twice;
- settled to a blocked card or closed account;
- made during a VisaNet timeout; or
- not in line with card schemes rules or laws.
In case the sender of the Visa Direct OCT transaction disputes the transaction due to (i) incorrect account number, (ii) incorrect transaction amount, (iii) duplicate processing or (iv) incorrect transaction code, Intergiro may withdraw the disputed amount from your QB Payment Account until the dispute is resolved.
9. Fees and charges
9.1 For the use of your QB Payment Account, you will be charged for fees and charges in accordance with the pricing information available in the QB App and/or on Quickbit’s website www.quickbit.com.
9.2 Any changes to the fees and charges will be notified to you with two (2) months’ notice. If you do not accept such changes, please inform Quickbit’s Customer Support prior to such notice period has ended. Please note that Intergiro has the right to terminate your QB Payment Account in that case, in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement.
9.3 Transaction related fees and charges will be deducted from your QB Payment Account at the moment, such as when making a Transaction subject to fees. Any monthly fees will be deducted from your QB Payment Account on a monthly basis in arrears. You can keep track of fee deductions on your QB Payment Account using the QB App.
9.4 If there are insufficient funds on your QB Payment Account to cover fees or charges, you need to add funds to your QB Payment Account as soon as possible.
9.5 Intergiro may block Payouts from your QB Payment Account or close your Account if there are insufficient funds to cover fees and charges and you do not add sufficient funds to your QB Payment Account upon request. Intergiro or Quickbit has the right to bring legal actions against you to recover any sums you owe. If Intergiro or Quickbit incurs any costs taking any of these measures you may be charged for the reasonable costs.
9.6 You have no set-off right under the Agreement.
9.7 Please note that any third-party fees and charges incurred by Intergiro or Quickbit as a result of your use of the QB Payment Account will be passed on to you. Please see Quickbit’s pricing information available in the QB App and/or Quickbit’s website www.quickbit.com for further information on third-party fees and charges.
10. QB Payment Account security
10.1 Safety of your funds. E-money is a type of electronic cash which Intergiro as a regulated e-money institution is authorised to issue in exchange for receipt of “real money”. Your QB Payment Account is an e-money account which holds your e-money. Upon the receipt of Collections intended for your QB Payment Account, Intergiro deposits such money into a bank account with its partner bank and issues the corresponding amount of e-money to your QB Payment Account. Intergiro is required to do so under mandatory law in order to keep your money segregated from Intergiro’s own funds and Intergiro is not, unlike a bank, allowed to lend your money to anyone. This means that your money is secure and at all times deposited in ring-fenced accounts Intergiro holds with its partner banks within the EU. These safeguarding practices are designed to protect your money. In the unlikely event of Intergiro’s insolvency, after administrator or liquidator costs have been paid, you as Intergiro’s customer will rank first in any claim on funds held in the ring-fenced accounts. This means that only after customers’ funds have been returned, Intergiro’s own debts owed to third parties will be paid.
10.2 Under the terms of Intergiro’s e-money licence, Intergiro is not permitted to pay interest to you on the funds held on your QB Payment account. Further, the funds in your QB Payment Account are not covered by any deposit guarantee schemes.
10.3 Intergiro’s protection of your QB Payment Account. Intergiro uses fraud detection technologies, data encryption and strong customer authentication solutions in its efforts to prevent unauthorised or fraudulent use of your QB Payment Account. If Intergiro suspects any unauthorised or fraudulent use of your QB Payment Account, you will be contacted by Quickbit’s Customer Support.
10.4 Intergiro may restrict certain merchants you can make payments with if considered necessary to protect your QB Payment Account.
10.5 Your responsibility. You are responsible to keep your QB Payment Account, including your Card, safe. Whilst measures are undertaken to protect your QB Payment Account please note that you are responsible for ensuring that:
- your QB Payment Account and your credentials, your Card, all details of your Card (such as card number, expiration date and 3-digit security code), including ordinary and one-time passwords, means of communication used with Intergiro and/or Quickbit for authentication purposes (“account credentials”) are kept safe and secure and that you do not keep account credentials or security details together with a Card or a device used to access the QB App;
- you use a strong password, which you do not use for any other account or similar, which you update from time-to-time;
- you do not let any third party access or use the QB Payment Account;
- only your own biometrics (Touch ID or Face ID) is registered on your mobile device;
- you immediately contact Quickbit’s Customer Support if you suspect or experience that your QB Payment Account (or any information thereof) is accessed or otherwise used by an unauthorised third party or if you suspect that any account credentials are at a risk of or are being used or otherwise possessed by an unauthorised third party;
- you immediately notify us, by way set out in clause 7.4 above, if your Card is lost, stolen or gets otherwise out of your possession or control or if the details of your Card might have been used without authorisation;
- you ensure that all information (including but not limited to your contact details and address) relating to the QB Payment Account is up-to-date and that you inform Quickbit’s Customer Support without undue delay of any change; and
- you always follow the rules and recommendations regarding security of your QB Payment Account.
11. Changing these Terms and Conditions, closing your QB Payment Account
11.1 Intergiro may unilaterally amend or change these Terms and Conditions from time-to-time, for example to introduce new products or to comply with applicable law. In case of any changes that could affect your current use of your QB Payment Account, you will be notified at least two (2) months’ in advance of such change. If you do not accept the changes you should notify Quickbit’s Customer Support before the changes take effect. Please note that Intergiro may terminate the Agreement with you and close your QB Payment Account in such case.
11.2 You can terminate the Agreement free of charge and close the QB Payment Account at any time without notice period. Please contact Quickbit’s Customer Support if you wish to terminate your QB Payment Account.
11.3 Intergiro can terminate the Agreement with you and close the QB Payment Account with two (2) months’ prior notice for any reason, including if you are no longer a customer of Quickbit.
11.4 In addition, Intergiro may (i) suspend your QB Payment Account (or any part thereof), or (ii) terminate the Agreement and your QB Payment Account (or any part thereof) with immediate effect if you, in Intergiro’s opinion, materially breach the Agreement, any applicable laws or if Intergiro is required to do so under any law, regulation, court order or request of an authority. Intergiro may also suspend your QB Payment Account if you are suspended from the QB App for any reason.
11.5 In certain circumstances, Intergiro is prevented from closing the QB Payment Account due to ongoing investigations concerning the QB Payment Account. In such cases, Intergiro may freeze the QB Payment Account and your funds for the time necessary to complete the investigation.
11.6 Closure of your QB Payment Account.You will be notified prior to your QB Payment Account is closed. In these circumstances, any pending payment order or on-going Transaction may be cancelled, restricted or blocked.
11.7 Unless you instruct otherwise prior to the closure of the QB Payment Account, any unclaimed funds from the QB Payment Account will be moved to a separate account and kept for at least one (1) calendar year (subject to associated fees being deducted as applicable). You may contact Quickbit’s Customer Support within one (1) calendar year from the closure of your QB Payment Account, and request a transfer of the unclaimed funds to you (subject to associated transaction fees being deducted as applicable). If you do not claim such funds within one (1) calendar year of closure, such funds may be deposited (subject to associated transaction fees being deducted as applicable) on your behalf and at your cost with the County Administrative Board of Stockholm, Sweden (Länsstyrelsen i Stockholm) postadress: Box 22067, SE-104 22 Stockholm, Sweden. Visiting address: Regeringsgatan 66, telephone: +46 10 223 10 00. Once any unclaimed funds are deposited at the County Administrative Board of Stockholm the responsibility of Intergiro in respect of such funds shall cease and fees and taxes will apply according to the rules of the County Administrative Board.
12. Additional legal terms
12.1 Negative balance.It is generally not possible to overdraw the QB Payment Account. It is your responsibility to ensure that there is always sufficient balance (including any fees and charges) on your QB Payment Account before you create a payment order or make a Transaction. In rare circumstances, the QB Payment Account may have a negative balance due to a reversed transaction, due to the fees and charges to be deducted or due to an offline Card transaction. In such a case, you will need to transfer funds to your QB Payment Account to cover the overdrawn amount within five (5) banking days, otherwise Intergiro has the right to terminate the Agreement with immediate effect and close your QB Payment Account in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
12.2 Changes to QB Payment Account details. In rare circumstances Intergiro may, due to operational reasons, need to make changes to account details (such as account numbers). In such a case you will be notified in advance. Following such a change, you need to refrain from using the old account details, as transactions may not reach your QB Payment Account otherwise. Unfortunately Intergiro cannot accept responsibility for any losses incurred as a result of using the old account details.
12.3 Inactivity. Your QB Payment Account is a payment transaction account and not intended for savings. If your QB Payment Account is inactive, meaning that no payment order has been created or any Transaction been made, for a period longer than six (6) months, Intergiro has the right to terminate the Agreement with you and close your QB Payment Account.
12.4 Intellectual property rights. Upon entering into the Agreement, Intergiro grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revocable right to use Intergiro’s products and services. All the intellectual property in Intergiro’s products and services are owned by Intergiro or Intergiro’s licensors (such as Intergiro’s logo and designs, the content on Intergiro’s website, all software and source code, trademarks, know-how and data related to Intergiro’s products and services). You do not have any right to use Intergiro’s or Intergiro’s licensors’ names, trademarks, logos or other intellectual property. You must not copy, reproduce, modify, reverse engineer or disassemble any of Intergiro’s products, services or any intellectual property rights.
12.5 Intergiro’s liability. The QB Payment Account and all services provided by Intergiro are provided “as is” and Intergiro cannot guarantee that the services will be free from faults or interruptions. This is partly due to the fact that Intergiro relies on some third parties to provide the QB Payment Account and the services.
