  1. SPECIFIC CONDITIONS

2.1 OBJECT

The PECUNPAY card, under its different modes (hereinafter “card”) is a prepaid MASTERCARD or VISA card that allows the HOLDER to obtain goods and professional services in establishments that accept MASTERCARD or VISA cards and that also have a Point of Sale Terminal (POS) device.

This card also allows the HOLDER to shop on the Internet, as long as the web site browsed accepts that means of payment, in which case, it shall be subject to the conditions established there.

Under no case shall the balance of the card accrue interest or any other kind of remuneration in favour of the HOLDER.

2.2 HOLDERSHIP OF THE CARD

PECUNPAY holds the ownership of the cards it issues with personal status. Their HOLDER shall be a natural or legal person whose identity must be recorded on the actual card.

2.3 ISSUING THE CARD

The HOLDER authorises PECUNPAY to issue a financial card linked to a payment account assigned to the HOLDER.

If the HOLDER were to request additional cards, each card shall be linked to a new payment account. Application by the HOLDER for one or various additional cards shall amount to their consent in relation to the charges that PECUNPAY performs in its payment account as a consequence of the transactions and withdrawals performed with such additional cards.

2.4 VALIDITY OF THE CARDS

The card shall have a limited validity up to the expiry date it bears.

By filling in the form and making payment, and once our internal checks have been passed, the user will receive the card within an estimated term of 10 working days.

The same consequences shall be applicable to the case of remote (Internet) sales.

Use of the card shall be presumed effective due to mere registration of the transaction in the computer files of PECUNPAY.

The operations performed by the HOLDER shall be considered authorised when they have given consent by any of the channels established for use of means of payment considered in these general and specific conditions.

PECUNPAY and COVERFLEX are not liable for the non-acceptance of the card in establishments or any issues of the HOLDER with establishment regarding payments done through the card.
