2. Accessing the service

Other restrictions may apply. b. Mobile Services. The Service is also accessible via a mobile device.

The Service may not be available in whole or in part in different countries and jurisdictions as determined by local laws and regulations.

3. Offer and acceptance
If you submit a Transaction, you are requesting that we process your Transaction, an offer which we may accept or reject at our sole discretion from our place of business in Montreal, Canada.

4. Payment
a. Charges. For each Transaction that you submit, you agree to pay us a transaction fee (the "Transaction Fee") plus the Transaction Amount. Additional charges may apply. Payment is due at the time your Transaction is submitted for processing. Soksipay only accepts payment in Canadian Dollars. If you submit a Transaction that results in Soksipay's being charged non-sufficient fund fees, chargeback fees, or other similar fees, you agree to reimburse us for all such fees. For Transactions funded from the Sender's bank account, you agree that Soksipay may from time to time debit your bank account for the amount of the transfer. b. Payment. In order for us to collect payment from you, you authorize us to access, charge, or debit funds from any of the payment instruments you provide us in connection with your use of the Service (each, a "Payment Instrument") including, for example, your credit card, debit card or bank account. We accept prepaid payment cards as a Payment Instrument. If your payment fails or is insufficient, we may re-try debiting your Payment Instrument one or more times or you may authorize us to try debiting a different Payment Instrument. For example, if there are insufficient funds in your bank account at the time you submit your Transaction, we may try to debit your bank account or charge your credit card at a later time. You represent and warrant that you are the lawful owner of your Payment Instrument(s). c. Other Charges. Soksipay is not responsible for any fees or charges that may be imposed by the financial institutions associated with your Payment Instruments. For example (without limitation), your credit card issuer may charge you a cash advance fee and interest if you use a credit card as a Payment Instrument. Soksipay is not responsible for any such fees, nor are we responsible for non-sufficient funds charges, chargeback fees, or other similar charges that might be imposed on you by your bank, credit card issuer, or other provider in connection with your use of the Service. d. Foreign Currencies. Soksipay and its Service Providers (defined below) usually make money when you pay for a Transaction in one currency and the Transaction is paid out in another currency, which is based on the difference between the exchange rate at which we buy foreign currency and the exchange rate provided to you. You agree, when you send a Transaction to a Recipient's bank account, that the bank account is denominated in the same currency as the Transaction (e.g., if your Transaction calls for Soksipay to deposit francs CFA into the Recipient's bank account, then you confirm that the Recipient's bank account is denominated in francs CFA). e. Scheduled Money Transfers. By utilizing Soksipay's scheduled money transfers product, you authorize us to submit Transactions on your behalf, in accordance with your instructions. You understand that Soksipay will continue to process recurring money transfer Transactions until you instruct us to stop. You further understand that you must schedule money transfers at least five (5) business days before the transfer date. If you cancel a recurring money transfer Transaction prior to 12:00 PM (Easter Time) on the day before the Transaction is scheduled for processing, we will cancel the Transaction, and your funding source will not be debited. For money transfer Transactions that involve exchanges of foreign currency, you understand that Soksipay may be unable to predict the foreign exchange rate on the Transaction date, and you agree that we may apply whatever rate is in effect on the Transaction date.

5. Transaction pay outs
a. Service Providers. We work with local banks, money exchange houses, and other third party service providers (each, a "Service Provider") to apply pay funds out to Recipients and Service Companies. You, in your capacity as a Sender, hereby appoint your Recipient as your agent for the purpose of receiving funds in connection with the Service. We attempt to provide up-to-date information on our websites regarding the location, availability, and hours of our Service Providers. However, you agree that Soksipay is not responsible for any inaccurate or incomplete information that may be posted on its websites. b. Verification. Recipients may be required to prove their identity before receiving funds by presenting valid, unexpired identification document(s) from a list of acceptable forms of identification. In addition, Recipients may be required to provide a Transaction number and/or another, similar identifier associated with their Transaction. You give Soksipay permission to contact your Recipient or the Service Company and store all such data, as necessary to provide the Service. Please verify account information and bank details are correct prior to submitting your Transaction because Soksipay is not responsible for detecting inaccuracies. If account information and bank details are incorrect, money may be sent to the wrong bank account and may not be recovered.
