Payment Platform User Terms

Last material update

22 de outubro de 2024

These Payment Platform User Terms (“User Terms”) constitute a legal agreement entered into by and between Teya (as defined below; referred to as “Teya”, “we”, or “us” in these User Terms”) and the person or entity (“you”, “your” or “User”) using Teya’s payment processing services. These User Terms govern your use of Teya’s payment processing services, which allow you to make payments to Teya merchants utilising a Teya online payment platform (“Services”). A Teya merchant is any merchant accepting payment card transactions in accordance with the Teya Payment Terms (“Teya Member”). The Teya entity with which you are entering into these User Terms depends on your location: 

(a) For users located within the European Economic Area (EEA) you are entering into these User Terms with Teya Iceland hf. 

(b) For users located within the United Kingdom, you are entering into these User Terms with Teya Solutions Ltd., which is governed by the laws and regulations of the United Kingdom. 

In the event that you are located outside the EEA or the United Kingdom, the applicable Teya entity will be determined based on the jurisdiction of the Teya merchant with whom you are transacting. 

These User Terms shall come into effect upon the earliest occurrence of any of the following: (a) when you indicate your acceptance of these User Terms; or (b) when you first access or use our Services, regardless of whether you have formally accepted these terms. 

For more detail on how we treat your personal information, please read our Privacy Notice.  

You may not access or use our Services unless you agree to abide by all the terms and obligations set out in these User Terms.  

If you have any questions or if you do not understand any of the provisions within these User Terms, please contact us - our team is more than happy to assist.   

Eligibility 

To access and use our Services, you must be at least the legal age required to enter into binding contracts and have full legal capacity to use the Services in the country in which you reside.  You are not permitted to use the Services if you have previously had your access to our Services suspended or terminated. You may not use the Services if you are subject to government sanctions, including but not limited to those imposed by the U.K. Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation or any other national authority.  

Additional Terms/Revisions 

We reserve the right to amend these User Terms at any time, including modifying, removing, discontinuing, or adding conditions to any part of the Services. We will inform you of any changes to these User Terms by posting a notice on our website, which includes the location of these User Terms, or by providing notice via email or through our Services, including Teya’s payment platforms. Your continued use of our Services after the effective date of any amendments constitutes your acceptance of the revised User Terms.  You are prohibited from, and must not allow others to: engage in any activity that violates applicable laws or regulations, such as those governing financial services, consumer rights, anti-competitive practices, anti-discrimination laws, money laundering, terrorist financing, bribery, or deceptive advertising; provide any information that is false, inaccurate, or misleading; use the Services for activities such as testing credit card responses or conducting transactions that are excessive, unusual, or unjustifiable; use the Services in a manner that we, relevant payment card networks, or any electronic funds transfer systems reasonably view as a misuse of the card system or a breach of card network or association guidelines; and conduct activities through the Services that could lead to: (i) customer complaints; (ii) disputes, claims, chargebacks, or transaction reversals; and (iii) financial penalties, fines, fees, or other liabilities that may impact us, other users, third parties, or yourself.  

Teya’s Role 

Any sales contract entered into through the use of our Services is solely between you and the Teya Member. You are responsible for the purchases made using our Services, not Teya. Similarly, the Teya Member, and not Teya, is responsible and accountable for the goods or services you purchase from them using the Services, including but not limited to matters of delivery, product quality, refunds, fraud, advertising, liability for their products or services, or compliance with applicable laws. Your use of and access to the Services does not alter your relationship with the Teya Member, any third-party platforms or services, or your bank or credit or debit card issuer. Unless otherwise specified in these User Terms, Teya will not intervene in disputes between you and a Teya Member regarding any transaction conducted through the Services. Teya will not make determinations regarding factual disputes, legal matters, or claims between you and a Teya Member, nor is Teya obligated to resolve any disputes. In the event of a dispute with a Teya Member or a third party, we recommend contacting the relevant party directly to attempt a resolution. You may file a complaint against a Teya Member with Teya. While Teya is not obligated to do so, it may choose to forward your complaint to the Teya Member and request that they reach out to you.. By using the Consumer Payment Services, you release Teya from any claims, demands, or damages that may arise from disputes involving other users or parties, including Teya Members. 

We do not provide any warranties for the products, services, or information offered by Teya Members and are not liable for:  product liability claims related to Teya Member products;  claims that the offering or sale of Teya Member products or services does not comply with applicable legal or regulatory standards;  claims regarding Teya Member’s products, services, or practices under consumer protection or similar laws;  inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated information provided by a Teya Member; or actions or inactions of any third-party platform with which you interact or make purchases.

The Services are protected by copyright, trade secret, patent, and other intellectual property laws, and all rights in the Services not expressly granted to you in these User Terms, or any other applicable terms, are reserved. To the extent you offer feedback, comments, or suggestions about our Services and materials, we can use and incorporate them into our Services without any obligation to you. All intellectual property rights in your feedback will belong to Teya from the moment of creation. If any rights don't automatically transfer to Teya, you're assigning them to us in full. You confirm that:  Teya isn't bound to keep your feedback confidential; and  Teya can freely use your feedback in any form or medium, for any purpose, without compensation. 

Termination 

We may terminate these User Terms or amend, suspend or terminate your access to our Services at any time for any reason, including without limitation, due to a violation of these User Terms.  Upon termination, you will not have further use of or access to the Services, and all rights under these User Terms will end. Any provisions of these User Terms that are naturally intended to survive termination, including but not limited to those necessary to enforce their purpose, shall remain in effect following termination.
