Refunds
General Procedures: EukaPay offers the convenience of processing cryptocurrency refunds for your Customers. Refunds can be initiated by either You or your Customers. The refund amount is determined based on the fiat value of the goods and/or services originally paid for. The refunded amount will be remitted in the same cryptocurrency used for the initial Invoice payment. In the event that your balance is insufficient to cover pending refund requests, we might request you to opt for a rolling reserve or pre-authorized debit (PAD). Any necessary currency conversions during the refund process will be calculated on the same date the refund is processed.
Disclosure of Merchant Refund Policy:EukaPay assumes no liability for merchant refund policies or their adherence to applicable laws. Merchants are advised to provide a clear refund policy to customers, which may include scenarios where no refunds are permitted. In specific industries, like those providing services, a refund policy might not be applicable. For all refund transactions, EukaPay will convert the item's fiat currency value to the original cryptocurrency that was used, while using the exchange rate at the time the refund is processed for the customer.
Minimum Refund Amount and Fees: When You issue a refund on a payment, the miner fee incurred to send that refund will be subtracted from the refunded cryptocurrency amount given to the Customer. In this case, the Customer will bear the responsibility for this miner fee. Alternatively, if You decide to cover the miner fee for the refund, a separate entry reflecting this deduction will appear in your ledger after the refund is processed. It is advised that you inform your Customers in your refund policy about the possibility of them bearing miner fees on successful payment refunds. A minimum refund amount of 100 CAD must be met for processing. For every refund transaction, we will be charging your Customers a flat 1%.
Refunds above 1000 USD: If the refund is equal to or greater thsan 1000 USD, You will need to complete a KYC verification process. You will need to provide the Customer’s legal name, address, and date of birth, as well as upload a government-issued ID.
Fees
Payments and Settlement
Payment Generation and Exchange Rate Guarantee: To create a payment for your Customer, you may post a request to EukaPay to collect a specific amount in your local supported currency, such as Canadian Dollars, United States Dollars or Euros. EukaPay will pull the exchange rate, where applicable, and provide the payment instructions and exchange rate to you for you to display to the Customer through the Merchant portal.
Exchange Rate Guarantee: We guarantee the exchange rate displayed to the Customer if the Customer pays within the applicable time window after the payment is created. Invoice timeout information is clearly displayed for each payment through the Merchant portal. While we guarantee the exchange rate if the Customer pays within such time window, you agree that you assume the volatility risk of the currency or cryptocurrency in which you choose to settle payments. For example, if you ask us to collect US$100, and the Customer sends the cryptocurrency equivalent, based on the displayed exchange within the time window, we guarantee you will receive exactly US$100, minus our applicable fees. We do not, however, guarantee the value of the US dollar.
Block Confirmations: For any payments that are made using cryptocurrencies, an invoice is considered complete by us after payment by the Customer has been sent and has the requisite number of block confirmations. EukaPay may in its discretion determine the number of block confirmation required and will indicate to you when the payment is complete. You have the option to inform your Customer earlier about the status of the invoice; however EukaPay is not liable for settling invoices associated with a payment that never receives the requisite number of confirmations. Such transactions will not be confirmed by EukaPay and you will not receive a credit to your Account for such transactions. EukaPay employs techniques to detect payments that are at risk of never receiving the requisite number of block confirmations, however, you acknowledge and agree that these measures do not eliminate the risk associated with unconfirmed payments.
Methods of Settlement: We will verify the Customer’s payments over the applicable cryptocurrency network and post the balance to your Account once confirmed, according to your preference settings. The debits and credits to your Account are funds temporarily held by EukaPay until settlement to your bank account or digital wallet can take place. You can receive a settlement in the currency that you designate upon Account sign-up, or in any supported cryptocurrency. You assume volatility risks of the currency in which you choose to settle. For example, if you choose to settle in bitcoin, then you assume the volatility risk of the bitcoin value.
Settlements in Local Currencies: Direct deposit, electronic funds transfer and wire payments to a bank account in a local currency is available to Merchants located in certain countries. If you wish to receive direct deposit settlements, you must provide us with valid bank account information and keep such information current.
Settlements in Cryptocurrencies: You may choose to accept settlements from your Account in supported cryptocurrencies. If you wish to receive settlements in supported cryptocurrencies, you must provide us with your valid digital wallet information and keep such information current. You assume the risk associated with settling in cryptocurrency, including the risk of loss if any settlement information you provide us with is inaccurate or incomplete. You acknowledge that EukaPay is not responsible for transferring, safeguarding, or maintaining your private keys or any assets associated therewith. If you lose, mishandle, or have stolen your digital currency private keys, you acknowledge that you may not be able to recover associated assets, and that EukaPay is not responsible for such loss. You acknowledge that EukaPay is not responsible for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the requirements hereunder.
Timing of Settlement. The timing of settlement for Merchants is as follows:
Merchants based in Canada who choose to settle in Canadian Dollars will settle on each day that they process CAD$250 or more. If a Merchant does not process CAD$250 per day, the Merchant will settle on the next Monday or Friday on which their Account balance is at least CAD$250.
All other Merchants will settle on each day that they process CAD$250 or more (in their local currency). If a Merchant does not process the equivalent of CAD$250 (in their local currency) per day, the Merchant will settle on the next Monday or Friday on which their account balance is at least CAN$250 (in their local currency).
Subject to Section 6(e), all settlements in local currencies will be made by wire transfer. For US-based Merchants settling in USD, wire transfers will be made within two business days. For all other Merchants, wire transfers will be made within two business days. Notwithstanding the location of the merchant, if the wire is over US$1,000,000, the transfer may take up to five business days.
Settlements may only take place on business days and will be calculated as of the prior day at 9:00pm (Eastern Time).
Cryptocurrencies
Market Risk: Cryptocurrencies are susceptible to fluctuations in valuation. The market for cryptocurrencies is still new and highly uncertain. You are fully responsible and bear all of the risk for any of the price fluctuation of any cryptocurrency that you choose to hold. EukaPay is not liable and you shall hold us harmless from any losses a Merchant may incur while, buying, selling, trading or using cryptocurrencies in any manner;
Liquidity Risk: All markets for financial instruments have inherent varying degrees of liquidity. Markets for cryptocurrencies are no different. There is never any guarantee that there will be an active market for one to sell, buy, or trade these instruments or products derived from or ancillary to them;
Legal Risk: The legal status of certain cryptocurrencies is not clearly defined in some jurisdictions. This may affect the legality of holding or trading them. As a result, the rights and legality of a particular cryptocurrencies may vary among different jurisdictions. Merchants are responsible for complying with the laws applicable to the purchase, ownership, use, and taxation of cryptocurrencies in their jurisdiction;
Exchange Risk (Counterparty Risk): Holding cryptocurrencies on deposit either personally or with any third party in a custodial relationship has inherent risks. These risks include security breaches, risk of contractual breach, and risk of loss. Merchants are fully responsible for taking appropriate security measures to protect cryptocurrencies that they hold or accept; and
Trading Risk: In addition to liquidity risks, the value of cryptocurrencies may be volatile and fluctuate quickly. Participants in any cryptocurrencies market are warned that they should pay close attention to their position and holdings, and how they may be impacted by sudden and adverse shifts in trading and other market activities.
