4 Personal Details

4.2 You must notify us of any change in your Personal Details as soon as possible by contacting Customer Services or updating the details in your Online Account. 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 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.

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.
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 to other Bulpay Prepaid Mastercards that have been issued by us (i.e. a “Card-to-Card” transfer). If you instruct us to make a transfer from your Card to another person’s Card, the requested amount will be debited from your Card and credited to the other person’s Card 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).

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.
6 Authorising Card Transactions
6.1 You will need to give your consent to each Transaction so that we can check it is genuine 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.
6.2 The time of receipt of a Transaction order is when we receive it. 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.
6.3 Once a Transaction has been authorised by you and received by us, it cannot be revoked.
6.4 Where a Merchant’s payment service provider is located within the UK or EEA and the payment services being carried out are in the currency of an EEA Member State or the UK, we shall ensure the cash transfer to the Merchant’s payment service provider within 4 Business Days following the day on which the Transaction order is received.
6.5 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.
6.6 Your ability to use or access the Card may occasionally be interrupted, for example if we need to carry out maintenance on our systems or websites. Please contact Customer Services to notify us of any problems you are experiencing using your Card and we will try to resolve these as soon as possible.

5.3 If enabled, you will have the option to transfer your Available Balance or part balance from your Card to other Bulpay Prepaid Mastercards that have been issued by us (i.e. a “Card-to-Card” transfer). If you instruct us to make a transfer from your Card to another person’s Card, the requested amount will be debited from your Card and credited to the other person’s Card 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.

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.

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.
6 Authorising Card Transactions

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 Cardholder Agreement.
3.5 Provided we have been able to undertake KYC, you shall receive an activation confirmation by email or on your Online Account 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 us with.
4.2 You must notify us of any change in your Personal Details as soon as possible by contacting Customer Services or updating the details in your Online Account. 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 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.

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.
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 to other Bulpay Prepaid Mastercards that have been issued by us (i.e. a “Card-to-Card” transfer). If you instruct us to make a transfer from your Card to another person’s Card, the requested amount will be debited from your Card and credited to the other person’s Card 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.

5.8 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.
6 Authorising Card Transactions
6.1 You will need to give your consent to each Transaction so that we can check it is genuine 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.

6.3 Once a Transaction has been authorised by you and received by us, it cannot be revoked.
6.4 Where a Merchant’s payment service provider is located within the UK or EEA and the payment services being carried out are in the currency of an EEA Member State or the UK, we shall ensure the cash transfer to the Merchant’s payment service provider within 4 Business Days following the day on which the Transaction order is received.

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 to other Bulpay Prepaid Mastercards that have been issued by us (i.e. a “Card-to-Card” transfer). If you instruct us to make a transfer from your Card to another person’s Card, the requested amount will be debited from your Card and credited to the other person’s Card 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.

5.8 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.

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.

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.
6 Authorising Card Transactions
6.1 You will need to give your consent to each Transaction so that we can check it is genuine 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.

6.3 Once a Transaction has been authorised by you and received by us, it cannot be revoked.
6.4 Where a Merchant’s payment service provider is located within the UK or EEA and the payment services being carried out are in the currency of an EEA Member State or the UK, we shall ensure the cash transfer to the Merchant’s payment service provider within 4 Business Days following the day on which the Transaction order is received.

- (ii) the amount of the Transaction exceeds the amount that you could have reasonably expected, taking into account your previous spending pattern, the terms of this Cardholder Agreement and the relevant circumstances of the case.

- (ii) you have given your consent to execute the Transaction directly to us; or

14 Payment Disputes
14.1 If you dispute a Transaction that you have authorised and which has been processed on your Card, you should settle this with the person you bought the goods or services from; we are not responsible for the quality, safety, legality or any other aspect of goods or services purchased with your Card.
14.2 If your dispute with a Merchant relating to a Transaction cannot be resolved you should contact us at Customer Services, and we will attempt to assist you as far as is reasonably practicable.
14.3 If you have reason to believe that a Transaction was carried out without your consent or in error, you may ask us to investigate the Transaction. If we investigate the Transaction, the disputed amount will be unavailable to spend until our investigation is complete and if we receive information that proves the Transaction was genuine, this will be deducted from your Available Balance and we may charge you an investigation fee. If you do not have sufficient Available Balance, you must repay us the amount immediately on demand.
15 Foreign Exchange
15.1 If you use your Card in a currency other than the currency in which your Card is denominated (“Foreign Currency Transaction”), the amount deducted from your Available Balance will be the amount of the Foreign Currency Transaction converted to your Card currency using a rate set by the Scheme on the date the Transaction is authorised.
15.2 You may also be charged a foreign exchange Fee as set out in the Fees & Limits Schedule. In order to allow you to compare charges for currency conversion, you can view the real-time percentage difference between the amount that will be charged on your Card for a Foreign Currency Transaction (consisting of the mark-up applied by the Scheme as well as any other charges) and the latest available euro foreign exchange reference rates issued by the European Central Bank. You can view this information on the BulPay Portal prior to making a Foreign Currency Transaction. This information will also be sent to you by push notification after making a relevant Foreign Currency Transaction, where required by Applicable Law. You are able to opt out of receiving this notification in the card setting section on the BulPay portal.
