Users of the Services shall not send Unsupported Payments, unsupported crypto-assets or tokens, nor use unsupported blockchain networks in connection with wallet addresses generated through the use of the Services. Any such transfer shall be made solely at the risk of the Retail Customer or Business User.

A Transaction may, where technically feasible, be rejected or reversed if, in the Company's reasonable opinion, it involves an incorrect amount, an unsupported currency, an incorrect network, an invalid wallet address, an insufficient network fee, unsuccessful verification, or any other circumstance rendering the Transaction technically or legally invalid. Rejected Transactions shall not be credited to the User of the Services' balance, and the Company shall not be liable for any losses arising from such errors.

11.5. The following operational statuses may appear in the Whitely Account to indicate the stages of Transaction processing:

  • Pending – the Transaction has been initiated but has not yet been confirmed by the blockchain network;
  • Processing – the Transaction is undergoing verification and is pending settlement;
  • Complete – the Transaction has been confirmed and credited to the User of the Services' balance;
  • Declined – the Transaction has been rejected or deemed invalid;
  • Cancelled – the Transaction has been cancelled by the User of the Services before confirmation;
  • Timeout – the Transaction was not confirmed within the permitted time period.

These statuses are provided for informational purposes only and may vary depending on network performance and the outcome of risk assessment procedures.

The User of the Services is solely responsible for verifying all Transaction details before submission, including recipient addresses, network types, and transaction amounts.

21. INDEPENDENT PARTIES AND ASSIGNMENT

21.11.

    23.3. If a Force Majeure event continues for more than sixty (60) calendar days, either Party may terminate the Agreement by written notice to the other Party, without incurring any liability as a result of such termination.

    23.4. The User acknowledges that system maintenance, infrastructure upgrades, or disruptions affecting external networks may temporarily affect the availability of the Services.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR CONSUMERS

26. INTRODUCTORY PROVISIONS

26.1. These Special Provisions for Consumers apply exclusively to Retail Customers who qualify as consumers under applicable consumer protection laws, namely natural persons who use the Services for purposes outside their trade, business, craft, or profession.

26.2. In the event of any inconsistency between these Special Provisions for Consumers and the remaining provisions of the General Terms, these Special Provisions shall prevail in matters relating to consumers, unless another provision affords the consumer a higher level of protection.


27. PRE-CONTRACTUAL AND POST-CONTRACTUAL INFORMATION

27.1. Before a consumer concludes a distance contract or becomes bound by a corresponding offer, the Company shall provide the consumer, in a clear and comprehensible manner, with pre-contractual information forming an integral part of the contract. The contractual documentation is listed in Article 7.4. of these Terms.

27.2. Such information shall include: (a) the main characteristics of the Service; (b) the Company's name and registered office; (c) its telephone number and email address; (d) other online communication tools enabling the storage of the time and content of communications on a durable medium; (e) the address of the Company's place of business for submitting complaints, where different from its registered office; (f) the total Fees and charges payable by the consumer to and/or through the Company or, where such charges cannot reasonably be calculated in advance, the method for calculating such Fees and charges; (g) the payment terms; (h) the conditions and time frame for the provision of the Service; (i) the consumer complaint handling procedure; (j) the duration of the contract and the conditions for termination where the contract is concluded for an indefinite period or is subject to automatic renewal; (k) any minimum commitment period applicable to the consumer; (l) any deposit or other financial guarantee required; (m) information regarding personalised pricing where the price is determined through automated decision-making; (n) the functionality of the digital service, including applicable technical protection measures; (o) the compatibility and interoperability of the digital service of which the Company is aware or may reasonably be expected to be aware; and (p) the available out-of-court dispute resolution mechanisms and the manner in which the consumer may access them.

27.3. Where the contract is concluded through a means of distance communication that imposes limitations on the space or time available for displaying information, the Company shall ensure that, before the conclusion of the contract, the consumer receives at least the information required to be provided in such circumstances under applicable law and that all information is adapted to the communication medium used and presented in a clear and comprehensible manner.

27.4. Where a consumer concludes a contract by electronic means involving a payment obligation, the Company shall, before the consumer places the order, clearly and prominently display the information that must be specifically highlighted before ordering. The Company shall ensure that, when placing the order, the consumer expressly acknowledges that the order entails an obligation to pay, and the order button or similar function shall be labelled "order with an obligation to pay" or by another equally clear and unambiguous expression.

27.5. Within a reasonable time after the conclusion of the distance contract, and no later than the commencement of the provision of the Service, the Company shall provide the consumer with confirmation of the concluded contract on a durable medium.

27.6. Such confirmation shall include all pre-contractual information required to be provided before the conclusion of the contract, unless such information has already been provided to the consumer on a durable medium, and shall, where applicable, include confirmation of the consumer's prior consent or declaration in cases where the consumer has agreed to the commencement of the provision of the Service before the expiry of the withdrawal period and/or acknowledged the loss of the right of withdrawal.

27.7. Following the conclusion of the contract, the Company shall provide the consumer, without undue delay, with confirmation of the contract on a durable medium.

27.8. Where required by law, such confirmation shall include information regarding the right of withdrawal and any express declarations of the consumer relevant to the commencement of the provision of the Service.


28. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

28.1. In accordance with applicable consumer protection laws, a consumer generally has the right to withdraw from a distance contract within fourteen (14) days from the date of conclusion of the contract, without giving any reason.

28.2. The consumer shall not have a right of withdrawal in cases where such right is excluded by applicable law. In the context of crypto-asset-related Services, the Company specifically informs the consumer that, depending on the nature of the Transaction or Service, the product or Service may be of a nature whereby its price depends on fluctuations in the financial market beyond the Company's control, and that in such cases, the right of withdrawal may be excluded.

28.3. If the consumer expressly requests that the Company commence the provision of a digital service before the expiry of the withdrawal period, the Company shall, before commencement of performance, obtain the consumer's express consent and express acknowledgement that the consumer may thereby lose the right of withdrawal to the extent provided by applicable law. In the absence of such express consent and acknowledgement, the Company shall not commence performance of the Service before the expiry of the withdrawal period in cases where the right of withdrawal applies.

28.4. For the purposes of Services involving distributed ledger technology, the consumer acknowledges that performance may be deemed to commence at the moment the Company, acting on the consumer's instruction, submits a Transaction to the relevant network for execution. The consumer further acknowledges that such Transactions are technically irreversible once submitted to and/or confirmed on the network. Accordingly, the revocation of an instruction and/or withdrawal from the contract shall not affect any Transaction that has already been submitted and/or confirmed before receipt of the notice of withdrawal and is capable of producing legal effects.

28.5. Where a withdrawal is exercised, and the right of withdrawal applies, the Company shall issue a refund and determine the method of refund within the time limits and in the manner prescribed by applicable law, including by using the same means of payment used by the consumer, unless the consumer expressly agrees otherwise, and without any additional cost to the consumer.

28.6. For the purposes of Services involving blockchain or other distributed ledger technology, performance shall be deemed to commence at the moment a Transaction is submitted to the relevant network for execution.

28.7. Transactions executed through blockchain or similar distributed systems are technically irreversible once submitted to and confirmed on the network. The Company cannot cancel, reverse, or revoke such Transactions.

28.8. Accordingly, withdrawal from the contract is only possible before the commencement of such irreversible digital operations.

28.9. Withdrawal from the contract shall not affect any Transaction that has already been submitted to, or confirmed by, the network before the withdrawal takes legal effect.

28.10. Where the statutory conditions for the loss of the right of withdrawal have been satisfied, the consumer shall no longer have the right to withdraw once performance has commenced.


29. CONSUMER COMPLAINTS

29.1. The Company shall handle consumer complaints in accordance with applicable consumer protection laws and shall acknowledge receipt of the complaint without undue delay.

29.2. The Company shall provide the consumer with a reasoned written response regarding the merits of the complaint no later than fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of the written complaint, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

29.3. If the consumer is not satisfied with the Company's response, or if the dispute is not resolved directly, the consumer shall be entitled, in accordance with applicable alternative consumer dispute resolution legislation, to initiate proceedings before the competent alternative dispute resolution body.

29.4. Where the contract was concluded online or by other electronic means, the consumer may also initiate dispute resolution through the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) Platform, available at: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

29.5. Nothing in this provision shall affect the consumer's right to seek protection of his or her rights before a competent court or other competent authority in accordance with applicable law.


30. APPLICATION OF THE GENERAL TERMS
