1.1.2 You agree to use the Platform provided by us and all those platforms maintained by us.

2. Services

2.2 Using our Services, you (the “Sender”), may initiate a transfer of funds to any beneficiary (“Recipient”). The total amount sent includes the money you wish to transfer and any applicable service fees we charge. We then process your request, which we refer to as a “Transaction”. The recipient receives the transferred funds in the currency you selected.

2.3 By accepting these Terms of Service, you accept and agree that, when we have compiled a full Client Profile, including but not limited to all personal background information and all supporting documents adequately required within the account activation process, we will forward the full Client Profile securely to the relevant Regulated Payment Partner(s), who have a need to know such information for provision of Services.

2.4 The Regulated Payment Partner(s) will conduct standard due diligence checks including, but not limited to, Know Your Client (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) (“AML/KYC check”), for the purposes of your onboarding on the Platform.

2.5 Acceptance and activation of any User is at the sole discretion of the Company and subject to AML/KYC check.

3. Restricted activities

3.1 When using our Services, there are certain activities that are not allowed because they might compromise the security and safe use of Services for other Vance users. These are called Restricted Activities which you must not engage in, and are listed below:

3.1.1 Using Services for illegal purposes, such as fraud, funding terrorism or money laundering.

3.1.2 Using Services in connection with sexually oriented materials or services, gambling activities, or buying or selling tobacco, tobacco-related products, firearms, prescription drugs or other controlled substances.

3.1.3 Abusing, exploiting or bypassing service usage restrictions we put in place.

3.1.4 Using Services on behalf of someone else.

3.1.5 Violating a material part of these Terms of Service or other agreement between us.

3.1.6 Creating an unacceptable risk of liability, credit or fraud to us or other Aspora users.

3.1.7 Providing false, incomplete or misleading information that is important to your use of our Services.

3.1.8 Failing to cooperate in an investigation related to your use of our Services (including if we think you may have engaged in a Restricted Activity).

3.1.9 Trying to obtain more funds than you are entitled to during a dispute between you and us or providing yourself with a cash advance from your credit card.

3.1.10 Having a Profile that is linked to another Profile that has engaged in a Restricted Activity.

3.1.11 Accessing Services from outside of the UK or using an anonymising proxy or other tool which makes your use of the internet untraceable.

3.1.12 Using a robot, spider, scraper, automatic device or manual process to monitor or copy our Platform.

3.2 If we suspect you have or are about to engage in a Restricted Activity or used our Services in an unauthorised or fraudulent way, or if we believe that the security of your use of our Services may be compromised, we can take any of the following actions:

3.2.1 Close or suspend your Profile or your use of our Services and stop you from using our other Services in the future.

3.2.2 Delay, reverse, modify, cancel, decline or refuse to process a transaction.

3.2.3 Report relevant information (including your personal data) about you and your use of our Services to a regulator or governmental or law enforcement agency.

3.2.4 Claim monetary damages from you, if appropriate.

3.3 Notification in advance. We will usually tell you in advance if we need to take any actions described above. However, we may need to act without notifying you first if there is a security concern or if it would be considered “tipping-off” under law. We will lift restrictions on your use of our Services or allow you to re-register for them as soon as possible after the reasons for placing the restrictions no longer apply.

3.4 Your right to complain. If we do take any actions listed above, you always have the right to complain about our decisions. You can do this informally by contacting us in accordance with Clause 21 below.

4. Additional information

4.1 Use of Services: You may use our Services to make money transfers to all countries and regions as are listed on our Platform. We recommend that you make money transfers to your friends and family only and think carefully before sending money to strangers. It is also very important that you do not make a money transfer on behalf of someone else, or for any commercial purposes (such as buying an item or a service from a business) or to donate to a charitable organisation.

4.2 Trusted recipients: We will store information you provide us about a recipient to allow you to easily make transactions to that recipient in the future and join your list of trusted recipients. You must not make a money transfer to a recipient who does something (or fails to do something) that would violate a material part of these Terms of Service.

4.3 Currency conversion and exchange rates: We provide money transfers in multiple currencies as may be listed and updated on our Platform from time to time. When making a Transaction, an exchange rate is applied to the Transaction and includes a small margin, which we keep. Our Platform will describe what exchange rate will apply, which you can check and agree to before you submit a Transaction. You will also be notified about this in the Transaction confirmation notice.

4.4 Our right to limit Transactions: We may refuse to process a Transaction if we believe it is necessary to protect you or us, or if we are required to do so by law or regulatory requirements. We may also create new practices and limitations for Transactions, such as limiting the total amount that may be transferred via a single Transaction, either for all Aspora users or for a specific Profile. We will decide whether to implement any limits by assessing factors such as:

4.4.1 our risk assessment of your Profile,

4.4.2 an indication that your Profile or portal have been compromised,

4.4.3 the information you provide us and our ability to verify it, and

4.4.4 legal requirements we have to follow.

4.5 How we protect your money: Aspora isn’t a bank, it’s a digital financial services provider. To help send your money safely and quickly around the world, Aspora works with trusted banks and is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) for UK customers. This means that, while your money is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), we’re required to protect it at all times. We protect your money by following safeguarding rules — so even in the unlikely event of Aspora becoming insolvent, or if we stop trading, you will get your money back.

5. Transaction terms

5.1 Please note that all Transactions rely on your accurate information and compliance with these Terms of Service. We reserve the right to accept or reject any Transaction which we find are not in line with the terms set out in these Terms of Service.

5.2 To process transactions, we have partnered with banks who aid us to process the Transaction. Please note that as part of the Transaction process, the recipient would need to validate their identification with the recipient bank and hold a valid bank account. The transaction is considered completed from our end when the recipient’s bank credits their bank account.

9.1.2 Cash Rewards:(a) Cash rewards earned in the current month will expire at the end of the seventh month, with the current month counted as the first month in the expiry period.

9.2 Please note that unused rewards cannot be redeemed or reinstated after their expiration date.

9A. Referral programme

9A.1 An existing, eligible Aspora platform user (“Referrer”) may invite another natural person, who is not a current customer of Aspora (“Referee”) to register for and use Aspora’s services. Where a referral meets all conditions in these terms, the Referrer may become eligible for a reward (“Referral Reward”) as described hereunder or intimated during any specific campaign or promotion organised by the Aspora in future:

(a) Eligibility. To participate, the Referrer must hold an active, verified account in good standing and must not be suspended, restricted, or under investigation. The Referee must be a new user who (a) has not previously held or registered for an account with Aspora (directly or indirectly), (b) is not otherwise disqualified under these terms, and (c) completes the required registration and KYC verification and the Qualifying Action. For the purpose of these terms “Qualifying Action” shall mean the completion of one or more qualifying transactions through the Aspora Application with an aggregate transaction value of at least GBP 250.

(b) When a reward is earned. A Referral Reward becomes payable only after the Referee has completed the Qualifying Action and any applicable verification, and after any cooling-off, hold, or reversal period has expired. No reward is earned merely by sending or accepting an invitation.

(c) One reward per Referee. A given individual may be referred, and generate a Referral Reward, only once. Where the same person is referred more than once – whether by the same Referrer or different Referrers, and whether under the same or different contact details – only the first valid referral will be recognised, and all subsequent referrals of that person will be disregarded.

(d) No self-referral. You may not refer to yourself. You may not create, operate, or control more than one account for the purpose of referring to yourself, claiming a reward on both sides of a referral, or otherwise benefiting from a referral involving accounts that you own or control. Aspora may treat two or more accounts as belonging to, or controlled by, the same person where they share details including but not limited to the same or similar identity or KYC details, device or device identifier, IP address, phone number, email, funding instrument, bank account, or residential address. Where accounts are found to be related in this way, Aspora may disregard the referral and withhold or reverse any associated reward.

(e) Genuine referrals only. Referrals must be made to real natural individual persons with whom the Referrer has a genuine personal or professional relationship, and who have genuinely chosen to register. You may not: (a) refer fictitious, fake, or non-consenting persons; (b) use bots, scripts, automation, or bulk/spam distribution; (c) publish referral links in a manner that misrepresents them as offers from Aspora or on unauthorised paid, coupon, deal, or incentive-traffic channels, where prohibited; or (d) engage in any collusion, circular referral, or coordinated scheme designed to generate rewards without genuine new-customer activity.

(f) Fraud, abuse, and clawback. Aspora may, at its sole and reasonable discretion, withhold, cancel, reduce, delay, or reverse (claw back) any Referral Reward — including recovering amounts already paid or set-off against your balance — and may suspend or terminate your participation or account, where it reasonably believes that a referral or reward is the result of fraud, abuse, manipulation, misrepresentation, self-referral, duplicate accounts, collusion, or any breach of these terms or of applicable law. Aspora’s determination of abuse will be reasonable but final for the purposes of the programme.

(g) Compliance and verification. All participation is subject to Aspora’s identity verification, sanctions screening, and anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorist-financing obligations. Aspora may withhold or reverse a reward, and decline to pay where doing so would breach applicable law or its regulatory obligations, or where required verification is not completed.

(h) Taxes. Referral Rewards may be treated as taxable income in your jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for any taxes, levies, or reporting arising from rewards you receive, and Aspora may withhold or report amounts where required by law.

(i) Changes and termination. Aspora may modify, suspend, or discontinue the referral programme, or change eligibility criteria, reward amounts, and Qualifying Actions, at any time, with prospective effect and without liability, subject to giving notice where required by law. Rewards validly earned before a change takes effect will be honoured in accordance with the terms in force at the time they were earned.

10. Refund policy

10.1 “Refund” means the return of funds by the Company to a Sender in respect of a Transaction that has been cancelled, declined, duplicated, unauthorised, not fulfilled in accordance with the agreed terms, or otherwise eligible for reversal under applicable law or these Terms of Service. A Refund shall be made to the same payment method or account from which the original payment was received, unless otherwise required by law or expressly agreed in writing.

10.2 Refunds may be granted only in limited circumstances and are subject to review under applicable UK law and our internal compliance procedures. You may be eligible for a refund if the funds have not yet been collected, withdrawn, or credited to the Recipient’s account, or if the transaction was executed in error, was duplicated.

10.3 All Refund requests must be submitted in writing to our customer support team within 14 calendar days from the date of the transaction. The request must include complete transaction details, including the unique transaction ID, amount, date, and beneficiary details. You may be required to provide identity verification documents and any other supporting evidence to assess the request.

10.4 Once the Refund request is received, we will investigate the Transaction and determine the validity of the Refund claim. This investigation may include checks against our Payment Partners, Recipient payout networks, and verification under our obligations to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing, in line with applicable laws and regulations.

10.5 If the Refund request is approved, the amount will be returned to the same payment method or account from which the original payment was received, net of any exchange rate differences, remittance fees, or third-party charges, unless otherwise mandated by law.

10.6 Refunds will typically be processed within 10 business days from the date of approval, although this may vary depending on your bank or card issuer. We reserve the right to decline Refund requests that are deemed frivolous, abusive, or made in bad faith. All decisions regarding refund eligibility are final and made at our sole discretion, in accordance with applicable UK regulations.

11. Chargeback policy

11.1 “Chargeback” is a reversal initiated by the cardholder through their issuing bank, typically to dispute an unauthorised or incorrectly executed card transaction. While customers have the right to dispute such transactions under applicable laws and regulations, we are available to assist you in investigating and, where appropriate, initiating a Chargeback request with your card issue.

11.2 We strongly encourage you to contact our customer support team as a first step. Many issues can be resolved quickly and efficiently without the need to escalate through external processes. If we determine that a transaction qualifies for a Chargeback under the applicable card scheme rules, we will support you in submitting the required documentation and guide you through the process.

11.3 Please note that if a Chargeback is initiated, we reserve the right to suspend your access to our Services while the matter is under investigation. We will submit relevant documentation to the acquiring bank and card network to defend legitimate transactions, including transaction logs, identity verification, and communication records.

11.4 If the Chargeback is found to be unfounded or deliberately fraudulent, we may recover all related losses and legal fees through appropriate legal or debt recovery channels. We may also report the incident to relevant regulatory authorities, including the FCA, and to financial institutions or card schemes where appropriate.

You acknowledge that you provide your personal information and user content at your own risk.

15.2 We have made two-factor authentication (2FA) available for everyone on the Platform. This provides an extra layer of security for accessing services and provides additional evidence to the password alone, meaning attackers with a stolen password cannot access the online service and therefore we strongly recommend that all users activate this additional security feature.
