4. RECEIVING AND ACTIVATING A CARD

• 4.1 The Monese Business Card will be posted to your address, as provided to us by you.
• 4.2 When you receive the Monese Business Card, you as the Cardholder must immediately sign it and activate the Monese Business Card via the Monese App. If the Monese Business Card is intercepted before you receive it you will not be liable for any misuse.
• 4.3 Once the Monese Business Card has been activated, the Monese App will provide a PIN. The Cardholder undertakes never to reveal the PIN to anybody and to keep the Monese Business Card safe. We will not reveal the PIN to a third party.
• 4.4 The Cardholder may change the PIN at most ATMs that have PIN change functionality. When selecting or changing the PIN, the Cardholder must not select a PIN that may be easily guessed, such as a number that:
• 4.4.1 is associated with the Cardholder, such as their telephone number or birth date; or
• 4.4.2 is part of data imprinted on the Monese Business Card; or
• 4.4.3 consists of the same digits or a sequence of running digits; or
• 4.4.4 is identical to a previously selected PIN.

5. USING THE MONESE BUSINESS CARD

• 5.1 The Monese Business Card can be used at any Merchant to make purchases in-store, via the internet or over the phone and can be used to obtain cash through ATMs within the UK, EEA and abroad (fees may apply, see paragraph 11). Each transaction will need to be authorised by the Cardholder at any Merchant by entering the PIN or other security code, if the Merchant does not accept chip and PIN authorisation, the Merchant may allow the Cardholder to authorise the transaction by signature of the receipt. A transaction can also be authorised by tapping the Monese Business Card against a Contactless enabled reader. We may refuse to execute a transaction if the transaction is unlawful or fraudulent. We will treat the transactions as authorised by the Cardholder if:
• 5.1.1 The Monese Business Card PIN or other security code personal to the Cardholder is used; or
• 5.1.2 The Monese Business Card is used and the Cardholder has authorised the transaction by signature of the receipt.
• 5.2 The Monese Business Card is a prepaid debit card, which means that the Available Balance will be reduced by the full amount of each transaction you make, plus any applicable taxes and charges, including additional ATM charges if any. The Cardholder must not use the Monese Business Card if the Full Deductible Amount exceeds the Available Balance.
• 5.3 Once you have authorised a particular transaction, you will not be able to withdraw your consent to that transaction.
• 5.4 The Monese Business Card can be used to make transactions in a currency other than pounds sterling (“foreign currency transaction”). The amount deducted from your Monese Business Account will be converted to pound sterling on the day of receipt of the transaction request. We will use a wholesale rate set by Mastercard. Exchange rates can fluctuate and they may change between the time you authorise a transaction and the time it is deducted from your Available Balance. You can find out the exchange rate applied to a transaction in your transaction history. When you use the Monese Business Card to make a foreign currency transaction (transaction in currency other than the underlying currency of your Monese Card), we will charge an additional foreign currency exchange fee (see paragraph 11).
• 5.5 Due to security safeguards, Merchants that accept the Monese Business Card are required to seek authorisation from us for all of the transactions that are made by the Cardholder. In some circumstances Merchants may require the Cardholder to have an Available Balance greater than the value of the transaction they wish to make. The Cardholder will only be charged for the actual and final value of the transaction they make. Merchants request this as they may need to access more funds than the Cardholder initially planned to spend. This may be the case for:
• 5.5.1 Hotels, rental cars, and
• 5.5.2 Internet Merchants – certain internet Merchant sites will, on registration or at checkout stage, send a request for payment authorisation to verify if funds are available. This will temporarily impact the Available Balance. Many merchants, particularly online merchants, will not deduct payment from a Monese Business Card until goods are dispatched. You should be aware of any payments that will be deducted in this manner when you are making other purchases to ensure that your Available Balance is enough to cover all purchases. We will not block funds in instances of transactions of unknown amounts as suggested under 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 unless you authorise the exact amount of funds to be blocked. We will release any blocked funds without undue delay after becoming aware of the amount of the payment transaction, and in any event immediately after receipt of the payment order.
• 5.6 Where you, or the Cardholder have agreed that another person can take a payment made from your Monese Business Account (e.g. if the Cardholder has given their Monese Business Card details to a retailer for the purpose of making a payment for renting a car or booking a hotel room), you can ask us to refund a payment if all the following conditions are satisfied:
• 5.6.1 The authorisation given did not specify the exact amount to be paid;
• 5.6.2 The amount that has been charged to your Monese Business Account was more than the Cardholder could reasonably have expected to pay, based on the circumstances, including previous spending patterns; and
• 5.6.3 You make the refund request within eight weeks of the date when the payment was taken from your Monese Business Account.
• 5.7 We may ask you to provide information as is reasonably necessary to verify that conditions in 5.6.1 – 5.6.3 are satisfied.
• 5.8 If you ask us to make a refund under paragraph 5.6 then, within 10 Working Days of the date we receive your request (or if we ask for more information under paragraph 5.7, within 10 Working Days of the date we receive that information) we will either:
• 5.8.1 Refund the payment in full; or
• 5.8.2 Tell you the reasons why we do not agree to the refund.
• 5.9 You will not be entitled to a refund under paragraph 5.6 if:
• 5.9.1 You or the Cardholder have given us your consent for the payment to be made; and
• 5.9.2 Where applicable we (or the person or a Merchant you agreed to pay) have given you information on the payment in question at least four weeks before the due date of the payment; or
• 5.9.3 If the payment in question was higher than you reasonably expected to pay is due to a change in any currency exchange rate.
• 5.10 Paragraph 5.9 does not limit your rights under the Direct Debit Guarantee Scheme.
• 5.11 If a Merchant agrees to give you a refund for a purchase made using the Monese Business Card, the funds will be added to the Available Balance of the Monese Business Account when we receive the funds from the Merchant.
