(Fees may apply see section 10)

5.1 Your Card may be used in applicable countries to obtain a cash withdrawal in local currency from an ATM that displays the Visa symbol.

5.2 Most ATM operators limit the minimum and maximum sum that can be obtained in a single transaction and it may also be limited (in some countries) by regulatory controls or Visa restrictions.

5.3 ATMs are not owned or operated by us and we are not responsible for ensuring that they will accept the Card.

6. Use of Cards for Retail Purchases

6.1 Your Card may be used to pay for goods and services (including mail order, telephone and Internet), subject to the restrictions set out below.

6.2 When you present your Card to make a purchase, the merchant will prepare a sales draft which you may be asked to sign. You will receive a copy of the sales draft and should keep each draft until the transaction appears on the Balance. This will help you to keep track of your spending and the Balance.

6.3 If there are insufficient funds available on the Card to pay for a retail transaction the purchase will be declined. Once the Balance reaches zero all transactions will be declined.

6.4 If you use the Card to buy goods and you want to use some other method of payment for part of the cost please advise the merchant in advance and use the Card first before paying any balance by other means.

6.5 You agree that we are not responsible for any failure by a merchant to verify the signature on any sales draft prepared in connection with a transaction on your Card and we may authorize and process a transaction even if the signature on the sales draft is different than the signature on your Card.

6.6 Depending on the country in which purchases are made, when a Card is used for certain purchases, such as car rentals, automated gasoline purchases, hotel reservations and restaurant meal and beverage purchases, the merchant will normally pre-authorize a certain amount in advance of completion of the purchase, temporarily reducing the Balance available to cover other transactions. A pre-authorization may be only an estimate of the amount of the pending transaction and may include a deposit and/or an allowance for gratuities and additional charges. If the pending transaction is not processed within seven (7) calendar days any pre-authorization will be automatically cancelled.

6.7 To make a telephone call using a Card, there must be a minimum Balance of CAD$17.To purchase gas at an automated gas pump, there must be a minimum Balance of CAD$22.

6.8 Your Card may be declined even if you have sufficient balance when a Card is used to make purchases at certain types of merchants. Many bars, restaurants and eating places factor a service charge or tip into the price (up to 20% in some cases) when pre authorizing purchases but only the actual amount spent will be drawn from the Balance. Hotels, cruise liners, and car rental companies, operate a similar policy. The addition of this percentage may result in a decline of your Card even though sufficient funds are available.

6.9 Visa merchant / POS terminals are not owned or operated by us and we are not responsible for ensuring that they will accept the Card.

6.10 We are not responsible for any goods or services purchased with the Card. If you have a problem with a purchase you make with the Card or a dispute with a merchant, you must deal directly with the merchant involved. If you are entitled to a refund for any reason relating to a Card transaction, you agree to accept the refund under the policy of the specific merchant with whom the original purchase was made.

6.11 If you wish to discuss a disputed transaction, you may call the numbers listed on the back of your Card. Although we have no legal obligation to do so, you agree that if we credit the Balance for any amount related to a disputed transaction, any and all right, claim, demand or other interest (together with all rights of action accrued or which may accrue) that you have or may have, now or in the future, in respect of such disputed transaction are automatically assigned to us. You also agree to fully cooperate with us by signing any and all documents we may require regarding the assignment of such right, claim, demand or other interest either before or after we credit the Balance. However, you understand that we have no obligation to credit the Balance and if we do credit the Balance, it will not be considered a precedent for crediting the Balance in the future.

6.12 You agree to accept a credit to the Balance if you are entitled to a refund for any reason for goods or services purchased using the Card.

6.13 We reserve the right to draw upon the Balance for any chargebacks that we suffer following any funds paid to us by you being cancelled by the paying institution.

6.14 The Card may not be used for accessing or purchasing goods from adult or gambling Internet sites and must not be used for any unlawful activity.

7. Additional Cards
(Fees apply see section 10)

7.1 An Additional Cardholder will be able to access available funds and make purchases up to the Balance and may be able to access information and change Additional Card details in the same way as you if you give them sufficient Security Details. You are responsible if the Card or the Balance is misused.

7.2 Each Additional Card will expire on the same day as the Card and all transactions with an Additional Card are made in same way as with the Card. The Additional Card cannot be used to reload the Balance or close it.

7.3 You will be liable for the use of any Additional Card as if it was used by you and it is your responsibility to make sure that any Additional Cardholder is aware of and complies with these terms and conditions.

7.4 You can de-activate an Additional Card at any time through Customer Service.

8. Your Balance
(Fees may apply see section 10)

8.1 The use of your Card to access cash from an ATM or to purchase goods and services from merchants constitutes a simultaneous draw and/or demand upon the Balance. For each transaction, the amount of the transaction and any fees will be immediately drawn from and will reduce the Balance. Each transaction will normally require authorization or validation before completion which may include a requirement to verify your Security Details. You acknowledge that once a transaction is authorized, whether or not you receive any goods or services at the time of authorization, the Balance will decrease by the amount of such authorization.

8.2 We cannot stop a transaction or payment once authorized.

8.3 Your Card can only be used for a transaction if the Balance is sufficient to cover the transaction. If a negative Balance is created in error following any transaction initiated or authorized by you, you agree to immediately repay the amount of the resulting negative Balance to us on demand. If a negative Balance is created as result of an error by you or by an Additional Cardholder there will be a fee payable.

8.4 If you notice any error in your records or our records of the transactions on your Card then you must notify us immediately at Customer Service. We may request you to provide additional written information concerning any error. You agree that if you do not notify us of any error or omission within 30 days of the error or omission, our records will be deemed to be complete and correct except for any amount improperly credited to the Balance.

8.5 Provided that you have complied with all our reasonable requests for information we will correct the error if it is our fault as soon as possible. There may be a delay in re-crediting the Balance until our investigations are completed. If we decide it is not our error we will notify you in writing or by e-mail as soon as this decision is made.

8.6 There is no interest payable to you on the Balance.

9. Accessing your Balance and Customer Profile

9.1 You will be able to access the Balance and other details in your customer file through the My Balance website or Customer Service and may:

(a) change a PIN;

(b) change some of your personal details;

(c) check your Balance; and

(d) check recent transactions.

The Internet and the on-line systems, except for My Balance, are not controlled or owned by us and we cannot therefore guarantee that they will function at all times.

9.2 You may make a balance enquiry at certain ATMs although availability is dependent on the country or the ATM operator used although a fee will be charged for this service. If an ATM displays a Balance for your Card other than in the currency of your Card an exchange rate may be applied which is different to ours and minor discrepancies may arise.

10. Fees

10.1 All fees charged by us for the use of the Card and related services are as set out in the Table of Fees listed below. Except for Card purchase (initial load) fees and Additional Card fees, all such fees will be drawn from and will reduce the Balance.

10.2 Some ATM operators may also charge you a fee that may be deducted from the Balance. Not all ATM operators advise of this fee or the amount in advance of cash being withdrawn.

10.3 Unless prohibited by law, you will be charged a monthly inactivity fee following a period of twelve (12) months in which the Card or any Additional Card has not been used or no credits have been made to your Balance. If there is no remaining Balance following the debit of any monthly inactivity fee (if the Balance is less than the fee we will waive the remainder of our fee) and the Card has expired we will automatically cancel the Card.

10.4 We reserve the right to change the fees by giving written notice to you as set out in section 17 of these terms and conditions. You may end this Agreement upon receipt of such notice by giving us written notice by post or by e-mail and we will refund you any remaining available balance of funds on your Card.

If there is no remaining balance following the debit of any monthly inactivity fee (if the balance is less than the fee we will waive the remainder of our fee) and the card has expired we will automatically cancel the card.

11. Foreign Currency Transactions
(Fees may apply see section 10)

11.1 If a Card transaction is made (or we provide you with funds under these terms and conditions) or the Card is credited with a refund or return in foreign currency, we will pay for such foreign currency transaction, or credit the Balance for such refund or return, in Canadian currency. In each case, the exchange rate charged will be the same rate (usually the wholesale market rate or the government mandated rate) we are required to pay for the conversion of Canadian currency into foreign currency, or foreign currency into Canadian currency, on the date such transaction, refund or return is processed. The exchange rate charged may be different from the rate in effect on the transaction date. In each case, the exchange rate is increased by an administration fee of 3.75% of the converted amount for transaction handling through the Visa International network.

11.2 These exchange and administration costs of currency conversion will be incurred for both debits (e.g. purchases of products or services in foreign currency) and credits (e.g. refunds or returns in foreign currency) to the Balance. These costs and variances between the price to buy and sell foreign currency will usually result in the amount of the debit for a purchase exceeding the amount of the corresponding credit for a refund or return of such purchase. In addition, a credit for a refund or return may be processed on a date following the date on which the corresponding debit for the original purchase is processed, and a change in the applicable rate of exchange between such dates may further reduce the amount of the credit for the refund or return.
