§ 2
Payment terms
The Platform Operator, while providing the Payment Processing Service, accepts the funds received from the Partner's Customer in the form of Digital Assets and finally allocates them to the Partner's Balance. Their crediting to the Partner's Balance means the payment for the goods or services purchased from the Partner within the scope of the Customer's Agreement with the Partner.
The Platform Operator shall provide the Payment Processing Service within the Payment Gateway in particular by:
a) indicating the Digital Assets together with their conversion value in the Payment Gateway, from among which the Customer may select one with which he/she plans to make a transaction;
b) generating the payment details by which the Customer will order such payment to the Partner;
c) accepting the payment ordered by the Customer on the Digital Asset selected by the Customer for processing and final allocation to the Partner's Balance.
Within the framework of the Payment Gateway Service, the Customer shall be able to perform the following actions:
a) selecting in the Payment Gateway the respective Digital Asset from the displayed possible ones, in which he/she wants to make a payment to the Partner; and
b) ordering a payment to the Partner on the basis of the payment data generated in the Payment Gateway, using external tools enabling the Customer to make such a payment.
The number and type of Digital Assets displayed in the Payment Gateway in which the Customer can make the payments referred to in paragraphs 2(a) and 3(a) above shall be determined each time by the Partner itself within the framework of the Partner's generation of the Payment Gateway for the respective transaction. The Platform Operator is not responsible for the above Payment Gateway settings selected by the Partner.
In order to make a correct payment in Digital Assets on the Payment Gateway, the Customer under the Payment Gateway Service is required to fulfill the information obligations indicated in § 2a below. For this purpose, he may be required to complete the Form for information regarding the parties to crypto-assets transfer, under pain of refusal to carry out such transfer in favor of the Customer, of which the Customer will then be informed accordingly.
Due to the specific nature of the Payment Processing Service provided and the technical conditions of the blockchain network, which are completely beyond the control of the Platform Operator, it is not possible to revoke an ordered payment once it has been approved by the Partner Customer and confirmed for processing in the Payment Gateway, with the exception of situations in which the Platform Operator allows the payment to be returned, as indicated in paragraphs 11 - 15 of this section.
In the event that the Customer makes a payment instruction that may be deemed incorrect according to the criteria set out in the Terms and Conditions for the Recovery of Digital Assets zondacrypto pay, the Customer may avail itself of the recovery of digital assets on the grounds and under the circumstances set out in this above mentioned Terms and Conditions.
The Platform Operator, when providing Payment Processing Services, does not support transactions carried out by the Customer under anonymous protocols, i.e. by means of tools and channels which make impossible for the Platform Operator to correctly identify and verify the parties to the transaction. In the event that the Customer orders the aforementioned payments using anonymous protocols, the possibility of a complete refusal of such payments is reserved. Furthermore, in the event that the Customer makes a payment using the aforementioned anonymous protocols, it is completely impossible to claim a refund of such payment (including in accordance with § 2 paragraphs 13 - 19 below) due to the Platform Operator's inability to identify and verify the parties involved in the transaction.
The amount displayed in the Payment Gateway represents the amount payable by the Customer to the Partner under the agreement concluded with the Partner (Customer-Partner Agreement). In the event that the obligation to cover the commission for the transaction rests with the Customer of the Partner, the aforementioned amount displayed in the Payment Gateway will include the value of the fees and commissions due for the transaction to the Operator of the Platform.
It is the responsibility of the Partner to inform the Partner's Customer of the amount of the fees and commissions agreed with the Platform Operator for a particular transaction carried out under the Customer's Agreement with the Partner.
The Platform Operator stipulates that the value indicated in paragraph 7 does not take into account any additional fees for the blockchain network that the Customer may be required to cover in order to properly complete the payment.
It is stipulated that the Platform Operator will provide the Payment Processing Service within the Payment Gateway to the Customers using the Digital Asset networks supported by the Platform Operator, as indicated in the link below, assigned for the respective types of Assets.
The time taken to credit the funds to the Partner's Balance depends on the load on the blockchain network, the amount of the assigned fee for the blockchain network selected by the Customer and the number of confirmations required to credit the Transaction Cryptographic Verification for the respective Digital Asset.
Reimbursement to the Customer of funds paid is only possible in the following cases:
a. overpayment,
b. underpayment,
c. payment after expiry of the gateway.
The Customer may claim from the Partner or the Platform Operator a refund of the funds paid by such Customer, in the cases referred to in paragraph 13 above, to the external address indicated by the Customer, save that the relevant Fees and Commissions due in the event of the provision of such services by the Platform Operator shall be charged on such transactions. Where the refund is made by the Platform Operator, the Platform Operator may make the refund subject to positive verification of the external address indicated by the Customer.
The Customer, if it is not possible to make a refund in accordance with the principles set out in paragraph 14 above, shall additionally have the option of claiming from the Platform Operator a refund of the funds mentioned in paragraph 13 above by returning them directly to the Customer's Account on the Exchange (on condition that it is correctly established and verified by the Customer in accordance with the provisions of the Statute for the Terms and Conditions of Service of the zondacrypto Exchange).
In the situation described in paragraph 15 above, the Customer is entitled to contact the Platform Operator by email (at [email protected]) to verify the possibility of the refund indicated in this paragraph.
In addition, the rules applicable when the Customer requests the Platform Operator to undertake the Digital Asset Recovery Process, due to an incorrect payment made by the Customer to the Partner, are provided for in the Terms and Conditions for the Recovery of Digital Assets zondacrypto pay.
The differences between the possibility for the Customer to claim a refund (pursuant to § 2 (13) above) and the Digital Asset Recovery process (pursuant to § 2 (17) above) are indicated on the Operator Platform.
The fee for the return of funds is 0.5% of the value of the amount returned. In addition, an additional withdrawal fee ("Withdrawal from Partner's account / Fee to blockchain network") will be charged in accordance with the Table of Fees and Commissions of zondacrypto pay. The funds will be refunded within 14 working days of acceptance of the request, to the address of the Wallet provided by the Client.
Any tampering with the Operator's Platform IT systems or the use thereof by an unauthorised person or a person with respect to whom the Platform Operator has a justified suspicion of such unauthorised use is prohibited. A breach of such prohibition may lead to the blocking or complete discontinuation of the Payment Processing Service and, in addition, if there are circumstances justifying such action, to the notification of such breach to the relevant authorities.
The use of the zondacrypto pay Payment Processing Service by the Partner’s Customer is not linked to the opening of a bank account and any operations carried out therein do not constitute banking operations within the meaning of the Banking Law.
It is prohibited to use the Operator's Platform to process payments for the sale of goods or provision of services that are in breach of the law, in particular those infringing the property rights of third parties, as well as those not permitted for trade in the territory of a given country/area, as well as to use it to process payments for access to unauthorised content.In the event that the Partner's Customer uses the Payment Processing Services for the sale of goods or provision of services indicated in the preceding sentence, the Customer shall be obliged to withhold such payment instructions and notify the Platform Operator of such circumstances.
It is permissible to change the entity providing the Service to another entity affiliated with the Platform Operator in order to ensure the continued provision of the Service in a manner consistent with the Statute. The change of the entity providing the Service shall take place in a manner consistent with the provisions of the law. The terms and conditions of the provision of the Service - in connection with the change of this entity - may not be changed to be less favourable for the Customer. In the case referred to in this paragraph, the existing Service provider shall cease to be a party to the Agreement and shall cease to provide the Service.
§2a
The Platform Operator, as an entity operating within the European Union and the European Economic Area, is obliged to comply with the regulations under Regulation 2023/1113 (Regulation (EU) 2023/1113 of the European Parliament and of the Council of May 31, 2023. on information accompanying transfers of funds and certain crypto-assets and amending Directive (EU) 2015/849) and Regulation 2023/1114 (Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 of the European Parliament and of the Council of May 31, 2023 on markets in crypto-assets, and amending Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010 and (EU) No 1095/2010 and Directives 2013/36/EU and (EU) 2019/1937) and relevant national implementing laws, respectively. To the extent that the Platform Operator is obligated to comply with the provisions of Regulation 2023/1113, it is thus obligated to implement the provisions of this Regulation, including those related to the collection of identification data from Customers to identify the initiator and beneficiary of each cryptoasset transfer.
According to the wording of the aforementioned legislation - “originator” means a person that holds a crypto-asset account with a crypto-asset service provider, a distributed ledger address or a device allowing the storage of crypto-assets, and allows a transfer of crypto-assets from that account, distributed ledger address, or device, or, where there is no such account, distributed ledger address, or device, a person that orders or initiates a transfer of crypto-assets; “beneficiary” means a person that is the intended recipient of the transfer of crypto-assets.
To the extent described in section 1 above, as part of the implementation of the relevant cryptoasset transfers - where applicable - the Customer shall complete the relevant identification forms (hereinafter: the Form), within which it will be required to indicate data:
Originator (with respect to transfers of crypto-assets whose beneficiary is the Customer), including:
the name of the originator;
the originator’s distributed ledger address, in cases where a transfer of crypto-assets is registered on a network using DLT or similar technology, and the crypto-asset account number of the originator, where such an account exists and is used to process the transaction;
the originator’s crypto-asset account number, in cases where a transfer of crypto-assets is not registered on a network using DLT or similar technology;
the originator’s address, including the name of the country, official personal document number and customer identification number, or, alternatively, the originator’s date and place of birth; and
subject to the existence of the necessary field in the relevant message format, and where provided by the originator to its crypto-asset service provider, the current LEI or, in its absence, any other available equivalent official identifier of the originator.
Beneficiary (with respect to transfers of crypto-assets initiated by the Customer), including:
the name of the beneficiary;
the beneficiary’s distributed ledger address, in cases where a transfer of crypto-assets is registered on a network using DLT or similar technology, and the beneficiary’s crypto-asset account number, where such an account exists and is used to process the transaction;
the beneficiary’s crypto-asset account number, in cases where a transfer of crypto-assets is not registered on a network using DLT or similar technology; and
subject to the existence of the necessary field in the relevant message format, and where provided by the originator to its crypto-asset service provider, the current LEI or, in its absence, any other available equivalent official identifier of the beneficiary.
Completion of the Form by the Customer - if applicable - should take place no later than at the time of execution of the transfer of crypto-assets, of which the Customer will be duly informed when ordering the transfer. In addition, the Platform Operator shall allow for subsequent completion of the Form by the Customer, i.e. after the execution of the transfer of crypto-assets, to the extent of the transfer described in paragraph 3(a) above, but no later than within 3 calendar days. If the Form is not properly completed with respect to the transfer described in paragraph 3(b) above - the Platform Operator will not be able to make the crypto-assets from this transfer available. The Platform Operator is not responsible for any delays in the execution of the transfer of crypto-assets or exchange rate differences related to the completion of the Form by the Customer and the User at a later time than during the execution of the transfer of crypto-assets.
The Platform Operator informs that based on the provisions of Regulation 2023/1113, it is obliged to reject/non-execute transfers of crypto-assets for which the Form has not been completed at least to the extent of the data indicated in paragraph 3 and within the deadline indicated in paragraph 4 above - with respect to the initiator and beneficiary of each transfer, respectively. Rejection/non-execution of a transfer of cryptoassets by the Platform Operator on this basis, will entail:
the necessity to return the assets to the initiator of the transfer of crypto-assets, in the form of the amount of the transfer reduced by the value of the fee to the network and/or the operating fee incurred by the Platform Operator in connection with the return of the transfer, which will depend on the amount and type of the crypto-asset in question, including the 0.5% operating fee for the return, in effect at the time of the execution of the return (hereinafter: the Return Value), and which shall take place within 30 calendar days, or
redemption of the transfer of crypto-assets by the Platform Operator if the value of the fee to the network and the reimbursement fee associated with the possible return of crypto-assets to the initiator of the transfer is higher than the Return Value;
The Platform Operator informs that the return will take place on the first possible date within the period indicated in paragraph 5(a). The Return Value does not depend on the Platform Operator, but on the current exchange rate of the cryptocurrency in question and other random factors. The Platform Operator is not responsible for the possible increase in the amount of the fee to the network and/or the operating fee depending on the moment of execution of the return.
Information on the amount of fees incurred in the refund of transactions to the network and/or operating fees, will be made available to the User or Customer upon request within 14 business days, reported to zondacrypto Customer Service possibly no later than 90 days from the date of the refund, to the email address: [email protected].
In the event that the Platform Operator has doubts as to the veracity of the information completed pursuant to paragraph 3(a) or 3(b) above, the Platform Operator shall be entitled to verify the submitted data on its own or by contacting the Customer (or Partner) in the forms described under these Terms and Conditions. The Platform Operator reserves the right to apply to such transfer the measures described in § 10 and § 19 of the Terms and Conditions of Service of the zondacrypto Exchange, if the application of such measures is justified by the circumstances referred to in the aforementioned paragraphs.
Acceptance of these Terms and Conditions is tantamount to either the User's or Customer's agreement to the provisions of this paragraph, including those covering the rejection/non-execution by the Platform Operator of a proper transfer of crypto-assets.
§ 3
Rights and obligations of the Platform Operator
Platform Operator is not responsible for the processing of payments to a wallet address incorrectly indicated by the Customer in connection with the Customer's desire to make a payment.
Platform Operator is not a party to the contract or legal relationship between the Partner and the Partner's Customer, in particular the sales contract or service contract, and therefore shall not be liable to the Partner's Customer for non-performance or undue performance of the obligation by the Partner, nor to the Partner for non-performance or undue performance of the obligation by the Partner's Customer.
Platform Operator in particular is not responsible to the Partner's Customers for the Partner's ability to conclude and perform the agreement for the sale of goods or services, and is not responsible to the Partners for the solvency of their Customers in the performance of such agreements between them.

(7) above, i.e. a payment by a Customer using anonymous protocols, reserves the right to refuse to process such a payment altogether due to the Platform Operator's inability to identify and verify the parties involved in the transaction.

At the same time, due to the very high risk of money laundering and terrorist financing, the Platform Operator reserves the right not to enter into business relations with residents or entities domiciled or residing in the territory of countries that have been declared unacceptable countries under internal procedures. This is solely due to international guidelines and legal requirements and is in no way intended to discriminate against such persons on the basis of nationality. A list of unacceptable countries and regions is available on the Platform Operator's website.
Platform Operator shall not be liable for any damages incurred by the Customer due to the withholding or refusal to process a transaction in cases where such withholding or refusal of the Service was justified in accordance with this Statute, in particular if the Partner's Customer grossly violates the provisions of this Statute or generally applicable laws.
