2. OVERVIEW OF SERVICE.

The Service enables you to (1) Set up an online log in account with I-MONEY, (2) Initiate a Money Transfer instruction, (3) List details of Sender and Recipient (4) Verify Reference designated by you when transferring funds to I-MONEY by your Financial Funds Providers (each, a "Funding Mechanism"), (3) request that instructed funds be sent to particular recipients (each, a "Recipient") within any country to which I-MONEY offers its international money transfer services (each, a "Destination Country"). Each such request to send money or make payments when logged in to your Account is a "Transaction." The amount sent is the "Transaction Amount."

The Service is offered through this website. Records are maintained by I-MONEY about you, your Account, your Transactions and your Funding Mechanisms. By initiating a Transaction through the Service, you are instructing I-MONEY to initiate a transfer of funds to a third-party funds handler (a "Local Market Associate") to disburse funds to the designated Recipient.

3. OPENING AN ACCOUNT

a. Eligible Users. You must be an individual at least 18 years of age and be able to form legally binding contracts under applicable law. You must have a valid postal mailing address and an active e-mail address. You must have (i) current/savings/deposit account with a financial institution in the United Kingdom and (ii) an online bank account through which funds can be transferred by you. Your mailing address must match the billing address for your current/savings/deposit account and online account (as applicable). Other restrictions may apply.

b. Opening an Account. You must open an Account to enable you to issue a Money Transfer instruction to I-MONEY. To open an Account, you must provide complete and correct information about yourself sufficient to verify your identity. Such information will include, at a minimum, your name, address, date of birth, and may include your National Insurance number. I-MONEY reserve the right to accept or reject your request to open an Account.

c. Terms of the Account. The log in account is not a deposit account into which funds can be placed for the purposes of money transfer. The log in account is a gateway enabling user to log in and submit an online money transfer instruction to I-MONEY for execution.

d. Accessing Your Account. You will create a unique user ID and password to access your Account. Your user ID together with your password has the same effect as your written signature and can be used to authorise Transactions. Contact I-MONEY immediately if you suspect your password or user ID has been compromised.

4. ACCOUNT SECURITY

a. Security Procedures. Access to your Account and your ability to initiate and authorize a Transaction will be verified based on security procedures that are offered as part of the Service. Each time you attempt to access your Account, you will be asked to provide your unique user ID and password. Providing this information will give you full Account access with the ability to initiate Transactions and review your online Transaction history. You agree to follow any additional on-screen instructions from I-MONEY with regard to Account security. You also agree to update and upgrade your Internet browser software on a regular basis as such updates or upgrades may become available from time to time. You acknowledge and agree that this Security procedure is commercially reasonable and that in selecting a user ID and password as your security procedure you have elected not to use any other commercially reasonable procedures that may be available.

b. Confidentiality of Security Procedures. You agree not to divulge your password or user ID to any other person, and you agree not to use another person's password or user ID. If, notwithstanding the foregoing prohibition, you give your password to another person or persons, you will be deemed to have authorized them to use your password and Account for any and all purposes, without limitation. You agree that I-MONEY will not have any responsibility or liability to you or any other person for any losses or damages which you or anyone else may suffer if you disclose your password to any other person, including any losses or damages arising out of the disclosure of this information by the recipient to another person.

c. Breach of Security. If you believe that any user ID or password has become known to any unauthorized person or become otherwise compromised, you must notify I-MONEY immediately by using one of the methods described in Section 23 of the TOS. In such case, you should discontinue using the Service until such time as security has been restored.

5. INITIATING A TRANSACTION

a. Information. You initiate a Transaction by accessing your Account through the Service, following the security procedures, and providing complete and correct information, as requested by I-MONEY, about yourself, the intended Recipient (sufficient to verify identity) and the legitimate purpose and funding source of your Transaction. I-MONEY reserve the right to accept or reject your request to initiate a Transaction. Should a transaction be rejected by I-MONEY after funds have been received, said sum amount shall be transferred back to the account from which it was received.

b. Service Fees. In consideration for the use of the Service, you agree to pay applicable fees for each Transaction ("Service Fees"). These fees will be shown to you prior to your final submission of a Transaction for processing and will be added to the amount you send to the Recipient, resulting in a total amount that may be higher than the amount you requested to be sent to the Recipient. The standard Transaction-related Service Fees are set forth on the Service Fees schedule provided on this website; there may be additional fees for non-standard services related to your Account or a Transaction. A "Non-Standard Service" would be any element of the Service that you request specifically from a customer service representative (orally, by email, or by any other means) to manage your Account or a Transaction that would not otherwise be provided by I-MONEY as a standard part of the Service. Service Fees are subject to change upon prior notice to you by any method permitted under this TOS and applicable law.

6. FUNDING A TRANSACTION

There are 2 methods of transferring funds into an I-MONEY account to enable I-MONEY to remit funds to your chosen destination.

a. Funding Mechanisms.

i) An online money transfer instruction initiated through this website can be funded online by using online banking services provided by any UK Bank at which I-MONEY has an account. You transmit the Transaction Amount plus Service Fees from your account at the same UK Bank through the use of online banking services into I-MONEYs Master account at that UK Bank. The online instruction form generated by I-MONEY on this website for the purposes of initiating an International Money Transfer Transaction, shall contain a Reference number that must be quoted and used by you when transferring funds.

ii) An online money transfer instruction can also be funded in person at any UK Bank at which I-MONEY has a master account. An online instruction must first be generated by you on this website in order to obtain a Reference Number. Once a Reference Number is generated, said instruction must be saved. The Reference Number must be quoted and used when depositing funds/transferring funds in person at any of the UK Banks at which I-MONEY has an account. Customer may then return to the saved instruction online on this website and complete and send the instruction to notify I-MONEY that the payment of funds into I-MONEYs account is complete.

Upon receipt of an online instruction, I-MONEY will then verify receipt of funds by cross checking the Reference code for the corresponding instruction against receipted moneys. Upon verification and when the transaction instructed by the Sender has been executed by I-MONEY and the Transfer amount is ready for collection by the recipient, I-MONEY will notify only the Sender. Such notification will be in the form of an Email and/or SMS (whichever method is selected by sender at the time of issuing the instruction on the I-MONEY website. It is the obligation of the sender to notify the recipient that funds are ready to be collected and to provide recipient with any and all details required by the recipient in order to collect such funds. Although funds will be held prior to receipt by Recipient, the funds may pass through one or more other financial institutions before they are disbursed in the Destination Country.

b. Remittance of Funds; Delays. I-MONEY's general policy is that funds you remit to the order of I-MONEY for the purposes of a money transfer instruction through electronic means will be available for retrieval by recipient on the day of receipt of funds by I-MONEY. It may take several days for funds to be actually received by I-MONEY depending on the Funding Mechanism you select. Funds are not considered received by I-MONEY until such time as I-MONEY has received payment in actually and finally collected funds. There may be additional time to disburse those funds to the Recipient. In addition, there may be delays associated with our verifying your identity, the identity of your Recipient, the validity of your Funding Mechanism and the purpose of your transaction. Disbursement will not occur until these verification procedures have been completed. You agree I-MONEY is not liable for any and all claims and bears no liability for losses arising out of the delay or non payment to designated recipients.

c. Fees Imposed by Other Financial Institutions. I-MONEY do not control and are not responsible in any manner for any fees or charges that may be imposed by the financial institution associated with your Funding Mechanism.

d. Funding by Electronic Transfer. By initiating an electronic transfer of funds from your funding mechanism to I-MONEY, you are representing that you have sufficient funds in the existing bank account associated with your electronic transfer, and you are stating the following to whom it may concern: ''I hereby authorize my bank to initiate debits from my account in the amount of the Transaction Amount plus Fees and to credit the same to the Master Account of Instant Money Transfer Limited.''

e. Failed Funding. If your attempt to fund a Transaction is reversed, rejected for insufficient funds or any other reason, or is charged back for any reason, I-MONEY is under no obligation to release funds to the recipient as designated by you. You agree I-MONEY is not liable for any and all claims and bears no liability for losses arising out of the delay or non payment to designated recipients whilst I-MONEY awaits receipt of funds from your Funding Mechanism. I-MONEY also have the right to collect from you the amount of any collection expenses, court costs and reasonable lawyers' fees. You agree to hold I-MONEY harmless from any losses, costs, expenses or damages either of them may incur in connection with collecting any negative balance, or in defending any of the foregoing actions, including court costs and lawyers' fees. You acknowledge that Transactions may be reported to a collection agency or credit bureau if you do not pay I-MONEY in accordance with this TOS.

7. DISBURSING A TRANSACTION

a. Disbursement Mechanisms. The Transaction Amount will be disbursed to the Recipient by cash pick up. (the "Disbursement Mechanism"). You hereby appoint the Recipient as your agent for the purpose of receiving funds in connection with the Service. A Local Market Associate will disburse your funds to your Recipient by way of cash pickup. Pickup means that the Recipient can go to a designated Local Market Associate branch office to receive funds, in person.

b. Currency of Disbursement; Exchange Rate. Funds are available to be disbursed in the currency of the relevant Destination Country, in US $ Dollars or in GB Sterling. You will be shown a representative exchange rate at the time you authorize and pay for your Transaction and the corresponding total amount to be disbursed to your Recipient. You must then choose the currency in which you wish for funds to be disbursed to the recipient. I-MONEY will use the current exchange rate for the currency requested, as posted on this website on the date the transaction is initiated. YOU AGREE THAT SUCH PROCESS IS APPROPRIATE AND ACCEPT THE OUTCOME THAT RESULTS FROM IT. I-MONEY MAY MAKE MONEY WHEN FUNDS ARE CONVERTED TO A FOREIGN CURRENCY FOR DISBURSEMENT.

c. Timing of Disbursement. Funds will be made available to Recipient for disbursement as soon as possible, subject to possible delays associated with the verification procedures outlined above, receipt of good funds from your Funding Mechanism, currency availability, and the conditions, laws, and regulations applicable in the Destination Country. The availability of funds may be affected by events beyond our control, such as civil disturbances, weather conditions, delays caused by failures in telecommunications and technological processes, acts of God or other recognized force majeure. I-MONEY therefore cannot and do not guarantee when a particular Transaction will be disbursed. You agree I-MONEY is not liable for any and all claims and bears no liability for losses arising out of the delay or non payment to designated recipients.

d. Transaction Failure. If a disbursement is undeliverable, or is rejected by the Recipient, or is not deposited within one (1) year of delivery the Transaction will be canceled. Generally, the transfer amount will be credited back to the bank account from which it was received minus any costs incurred in transferring the amount to and back from the country and currency of the designated recipient. You must note however that because of currency export controls in effect in certain countries, it may not be possible to credit the amount to you if the funds have been converted into a local currency. If this occurs, you will be given the opportunity to designate a different Recipient residing in the same Destination Country as the original Recipient. You may be charged Non-Standard Service Fees for processing and handling of such Transactions (as that term is defined in Section 5(b), above). After a disbursement has become undeliverable, rejected or undeposited for one year, should I-MONEY use reasonable efforts (e.g., email, telephone, and/or written notice) and be unable to contact you for another 30 days using the last known contact information provided by you, then you authorize I-MONEY to designate an alternate Recipient at that time, using its sole discretion.

8. LIMITATIONS OF SERVICE

a. General Restrictions. I-MONEY may, in its sole discretion, refuse any Transaction or limit the amount to be transferred, either on a per transaction basis or on an aggregated basis. These limits are at the sole discretion of I-MONEY and may be changed from time to time. You may not maintain multiple Accounts through this website or through any other website for which I-MONEY provide a similar service. For the purposes of these limitations, I-MONEY will aggregate funds from the same bank account, regardless of the name of the recipient. Moreover, funds initiating from the same address or being received at the same address may be subject to aggregation and limitation. For example, if you and your spouse each charge the same bank account 2,500 to fund Transactions, your funding requests may be combined and each of you may be considered to have sent 5,000 in aggregate Transactions. I-MONEY reserve the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice, subject to applicable law

b. Limited Use of the Account. I-MONEY limits your ability to initiate Transactions with a set of caps on the amount of individual Transactions and the aggregate amount of Transactions that you may initiate in a period of time. These limits vary with several factors, including how long you have been an Account holder, and how many other Transactions you have initiated recently. By way of example, I-MONEY may cap your first Transaction at 1,000 and limit the total Transactions that you may initiate in your two months at 1,000 per Transaction and 5,000 in the aggregate. Thereafter, I-MONEY may impose limits of 5,000 per Transaction and 15,000 in a rolling two month period. I-MONEY may grant limited exceptions to these restrictions on a case-by-case basis where customers provide additional information about themselves and their Transactions. Contact I-MONEY to request an exception using one of the methods described in Section 23 of the TOS. I-MONEY reserves the right to change the foregoing limits at any time.

c. Forbidden Transactions. The Service may not be used for the improper, unlawful, or fraudulent transfers of funds ("Forbidden Transactions"). Forbidden Transactions include but are not limited to attempts (a) to transfer funds using stolen, unauthorized, or otherwise compromised check card, debit card, bank account, or Account information, (b) to transfer funds using an account with insufficient funds (c) to seek reimbursement of funds that have already been disbursed, (d) to launder funds, (e) to use the Service in connection with gambling or pornography, (f) to fund terrorist organizations or individuals identified from time to time by the appropriate governing authorities in the U.S. and U.K. and (g) to violate applicable laws of the United Kingdom and its Territories, laws of the Destination Country, international laws, banking laws, rules and regulations, or the laws of any other relevant jurisdiction.

d. Commercial Transactions. I-MONEY have no control over, and are not responsible for, the quality, safety, legality, or delivery of goods or services that you pay for using the Service ("Commercial Transactions"). You acknowledge that any use of the Service for Commercial Transactions is at your own risk. Should you have any dispute with a Recipient regarding a Commercial Transaction, you agree to pursue any related claims directly with the Recipient. You agree to hold I-MONEY harmless for any loss or expense they incur as a result of a Commercial Transaction.

e. Ineligible Recipients. I-MONEY reserve the right to refuse disbursement to certain Recipients, countries, territories, addresses or other geographic designations in their sole discretion, including without limitation, destinations and individuals that are included on the Specially Designated Nationals list, Identified Terrorists and Groups Lists and such other lists as may be issued from time to time by the appropriate governing authorities in the U.K., other government agencies, and other sources. You acknowledge that in certain circumstances I-MONEY may be required to freeze Transaction funds and/or suspend a Recipient's receipt of Transaction funds, and/or segregate those funds in compliance with applicable law.

9. REFUNDS

You may obtain a refund of a Transaction upon written request if, at the time your request is processed (not received), the Transfer amount has not yet been collected by the recipient. Refund requests must include the following information: (a) your full name, address, and phone number, (b) Recipient's full name, address, and phone number, (c) the date of the Transaction, (d) the location to which funds were to be disbursed, and (e) the amount of the Transaction. Send your written request by one of the methods described in Section 23 of the TOS. Oral refund requests will not be accepted.

Refunds will only be made in the Transaction Amount (not including Service Fees) and will always be made in the same form of payment originally made. The refunded amount may be less than the original Transaction Amount to cover the costs associated with the Transaction amount having been converted to another currency and then re-converted to the original currency. In addition, there may be an additional Non-Standard Service Fee to refund a Transaction (as that term is defined in Section 5(b), above). Under no circumstance will refunds be made if a Transaction has already been released to a Local Market Associate or money has been collected by or paid out to the recipient.

20. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND GOVERNING LAW

This Arbitration Provision ("Provision") facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any disputes that may arise between you and us. Arbitration is a form of private dispute-resolution in which persons with a dispute waive their rights to file a lawsuit, to proceed in court and to a jury trial, and instead submit their disputes to a neutral third person (an arbitrator) for a binding decision. You have the right to opt-out of this Provision, which means you would retain your right to litigate your disputes in a court, either before a judge or jury. To exercise your right to opt-out you must provide us with written notice no later than the earlier of 30 days after your Account is first opened. If we do not receive your written notice within that time frame, your rights to opt out will terminate, and you agree that the provisions of this section will apply.

PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY. IT PROVIDES THAT ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR CONNECTED TO THIS TOS SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. ARBITRATION REPLACES THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT. IN THE ABSENCE OF THIS PROVISION, YOU AND WE MAY OTHERWISE HAVE HAD A RIGHT OR OPPORTUNITY TO BRING CLAIMS IN A COURT, BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, AND/OR TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BE REPRESENTED IN A CASE FILED IN COURT BY OTHERS (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLASS ACTIONS). EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED, ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS AND ALL OPPORTUNITY TO BE HEARD BY A JUDGE OR JURY.

a. Parties and Matters Subject to Arbitration. For purposes of this Provision, "us" means I-MONEY, their parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, licenses, predecessors, successors, assigns, and all of the employees, directors, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, beneficiaries, agents and assigns of any and all of them. For purposes of this Provision, "you" includes your employees, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, beneficiaries, agents and assigns. For purposes of this Provision, "Claim" means any claim, dispute, or controversy by either you or us, arising out of or relating in any way to this TOS, this Provision (including claims regarding the applicability, enforceability, or validity of this Provision), your Account, the Service, any Transaction, and our relationship. "Claim" also refers to any interaction or communication between you and us that occurred prior to or concurrent with entering into the TOS, including those Claims now in existence, regardless of present knowledge. "Claim" shall refer to claims of every kind and nature, including, but not limited to, initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims. All Claims are subject to arbitration, regardless of legal theory and remedy sought, including, but not limited to, claims based in contract, tort (including negligence, intentional tort, fraud, and fraud in the inducement), agency, statutory law, administrative regulations, or any other source of law (including equity).

b. Agreement to Arbitrate. Any Claim arising out of or relating to this TOS, or the breach thereof, shall be resolved and settled exclusively and finally by binding arbitration, in accordance with this Provision. Binding arbitration shall not be required, however, for collection actions by us relating to your Account or the Service. Furthermore, both you and we retain the right to pursue in a small claims court any Claim that is within that court's jurisdiction, provided the Claim proceeds on an individual basis. However, only a court of law, not an arbitrator, shall determine the validity and effect of this Provision's prohibition of class arbitration. For any Claims covered by this Provision, a party who asserted a Claim in a lawsuit in court may elect arbitration with respect to any Claim subsequently asserted in that lawsuit by any other party.

c. Voluntary Waiver of the Right to a Jury Trial and Class Action Participation. As a result of this Provision, neither you nor we have the right to litigate any Claim in court or the right to a jury trial on any Claim. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY WAIVING ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO GO TO COURT OR TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL. FURTHERMORE, NEITHER YOU NOR WE MAY SERVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY.

Arbitration will only be conducted on an individual Claim basis, and there is no right or authority to consolidate or join any of your Claims with any other Claims.

The grant or denial of a party's request will be in the sole discretion of the arbitrator, who shall notify the parties of the final decision within twenty (20) days of the objecting party's submission.

h. The Arbitrator's Award. The arbitrator has the ability to award to the prevailing party all remedies available at common law, by statute, or in equity, including injunctive relief, declaratory relief, arbitration costs and lawyer fees. The arbitrator shall not, however, have authority to award any punitive damages.

YOU AND WE AGREE THAT PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARE NOT RECOVERABLE IN ANY ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. For awards not in excess of 5,000, upon the timely request of any party, the arbitrator shall provide a brief written explanation of the basis for the award. In the event an award exceeds 5,000, or in which there is a request for equitable relief with a potential financial impact or value in excess of 5,000, the award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall specify the facts and the law on which it is based. In such case, the arbitrator's findings of fact must be supported by substantial evidence and the arbitrator's conclusions of law must not be based on legal error or be erroneous under the applicable substantive law. Further, in addition to the 1996 Arbitration Act's grounds for vacation, modification or correction of the arbitrator's award, the parties shall have the right to judicial review of the arbitrator's award to determine whether the arbitrator's findings of fact are supported by substantial evidence and whether the arbitrator's conclusions of law are based on legal error or are erroneous under the applicable substantive law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. However, if the award is in excess of 5,000, judgment may be entered only upon determination by the court that the award is supported by substantial evidence and is not erroneous or based on legal error.

j. Binding Effect and Survival. You and we agree that, except as specifically provided for above, the arbitrator's decision will be final and binding on all parties subject to this Provision.
