4. CARDS
4.1. We may from time to time make available functionality allowing you to use, view, manage and/or administer Cards through the NETS App, including without limitation functionality allowing you to top-up such Cards, request refunds in respect of such Cards, and/or view the transaction in respect of any Card. If you activate any such functionality, you agree and acknowledge that:
- we may require you to designate a bank, credit card, or other account as the originating account for the funds for top-up(s) and/or refund(s) (“Designated Account“);
- we are not responsible for the Designated Account, and we have no control over and are not responsible for the performance or non-performance by the third party provider of the Designated Account. You shall be solely responsible to ensure that you comply with the agreement(s) between you and such third party provider of the Designated Account in connection with your activation of any such functionality;
- you may only top-up Card(s) in such currencies as we may from time to time permit;
- if you choose to activate any functionality that we may make available in respect of automatic or recurrent top-ups of your Card(s):
- we shall have the right to, and you authorise us to, perform the top-ups using funds from your Designated Account according to the parameters that you may specify using the NETS App;
- it shall be your sole responsibility to provide us with timely notices of your instructions. To avoid doubt, if you request us to cancel any automatic or recurrent top-ups, we may not be able to give effect to the request within the same day.

- you are solely responsible for ensuring that your Designated Account contains sufficient funds for the top-ups, and we shall have no obligation to carry out the top-ups where your Designated Account does not have sufficient funds or where funds cannot be processed from your Designated Account for any reason (and if so you shall bear any cost associated with such failure to process the funds);
- we may for your convenience make available functionalities under which you can be notified of any failure of a top-up, but you shall be solely responsible to activate such functionalities if they are available; and
- we may at our sole and absolute discretion refuse to perform top-up(s) of any amount(s) for any reason and at any time; and
- unless we expressly agree otherwise or Applicable Law requires otherwise, Card(s) cannot be resold, transferred for value (or transferred to another person or another person’s User Account) or redeemed for cash.
4.2. Except as expressly set out under applicable refund policies as may be notified to you by us from time to time, any unused balance under the Card(s) will not be refunded. If a refund is granted, you agree to bear all taxes and other duties payable thereon (including in the case of bank transfers). We reserve the right to modify the mechanism of processing refunds from time to time without notice to you.
4.3. We may in our sole and absolute discretion impose or vary transaction limit(s) on any Card which may differ between users, with or without notice to you. We may also impose or vary transaction limit(s) on your Card(s) pursuant to your request. Without prejudice to the generality of any provisions hereunder, any Card that incurs charges exceeding the specified transaction limit(s) may be blocked or suspended by us in our sole and absolute discretion.
4.4. We may from time to time make available functionality allowing you to request for suspension of Card(s) via the NETS App or such other channel(s) as we may designate for this purpose. A request for us to ‘lock’ your Card shall be deemed to be a request to suspend your Card as contemplated under this Clause. If you choose to activate any such functionality, you agree and acknowledge that once you request for a Card to be suspended: (a) any or all of the functionalities of the suspended Card may not be available for use even if you can view certain Card details on the NETS App; (b) you will not be able to use the suspected Card for physical or electronic transactions, or you may only be able to perform limited types of transactions as we may specify; and (c) any standing payment arrangements linked to the suspended Card will not be processed (and you shall be solely liable for the consequences thereof). We shall have no obligation to update details of suspended Card(s) that may be viewable on the NETS App. For the avoidance of doubt, unless we expressly state otherwise, suspension of a Card does not affect any charges or fees payable in connection with the Card (as may be applicable).
4.5. For the avoidance of doubt, we shall have the right in our sole and absolute discretion to designate specific Terminal(s) authorised for use in connection with Card transaction(s) in connection with the NETS App.
Pairing of cards
4.6. In addition, we may from time to time make available functionality allowing you to link Card(s) with the NETS App on your Enabled Device, such that the Card(s) become Paired Card(s). By activating any such functionality, you agree and acknowledge that:

- any use of the Paired Card as well as access to and/or use of functionality connected with the Paired Card may require verification using credentials of the linked User Account;
- additional functionality that we may make available from time to time allowing you to manage Paired Card(s) through the NETS App may only be available for so long as the Paired Card is linked to your User Account in the NETS App; and
- your use of such Paired Cards remains subject to the terms and conditions governing the use of the relevant Card.
