5. Payments Generally

(a) If you instruct us to make a payment from one of your accounts, unless you instruct us otherwise, we will act upon your Instruction and deduct the relevant amount from your account immediately.

(b) You can set future dates for your payments or set recurring payments from your accounts.

(c) Please check all details are correct before you make a payment or transaction. This is very important because you may not be able to get the money back once the payment or transaction is completed.

(d) We may engage another financial institution to make a payment. We will tell the other financial institution that you will pay its charges. However, the other financial institution will decide whether you or your payee will pay its charges, for which we have no control and take no responsibility. We will notify you as soon as we can if we are told that a payment cannot be made.

(e) We will try to get the money to your payee as quickly as possible, but it may take a couple of days. For example, payments you make are subject to:

(i) the cut-off time of the place where payment is to be received;
(ii) the procedures of the other financial institutions through which payments are made; and
(iii) the availability of the relevant services (for example, foreign exchange payments can only be processed if the payment systems and financial institutions through which payments are made are open for business).

(f) We will notify you via the Mox app of any payments made from or received into your accounts.

(g) You can otherwise check all payments made from or received into your accounts via the Mox app.

(h) We may impose limits on the amount that you can transfer out of your accounts with Mox, including limits on the amount you can transfer per transaction and/or within a given timeframe and via particular payment methods. We may also combine such limits with other limits we may impose on other types of transactions. You can see details on these limits in the Mox app. You may change these limits on the Mox app at any time, subject to any absolute limits set by us. Any limits you set in the Mox app will be applied to all of your accounts with Mox.

6. Blocking Payments

(a) We may not act on your request to make a payment if:

(i) you do not have sufficient available funds in your account or the amount of the payment exceeds any transaction limit set by us or you;
(ii) you don’t give us all of the information we require to make the payment from your account or any of the information you give us is incorrect;
(iii) we suspect the payment may be fraudulent or may result in a person breaching the laws or regulations of Hong Kong or any other country;
(iv) we have cancelled or suspended your right to use your account or service;
(v) your account (or Mox Card) is locked;
(vi) the account you are trying to pay is closed or cannot accept funds;
(vii) if you have added your Mox Card to a digital wallet, we have received directions from the digital wallet provider to not act on such request;
(viii) we consider the payment may become a mistaken payment; or
(ix) we think it necessary to do so.

(b) If we block a payment, we will let you know as soon as possible, unless we are prevented by law.

7. Cancelling Your Right to Make Payments

(a) We may cancel or suspend your right to make payments or use a particular payment method if we determine this is necessary, including:

(i) to protect you or us from fraud or other loss;
(ii) if your account is closed;
(iii) if we are required to do so by law or court order;
(iv) if we think your use of a particular payment method is inappropriate or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such use is in breach of any law; or
(v) if we are unable to process any payment because you have given us an invalid account number.

(b) If we make a cancellation or suspension as set out in clause 7(a) of this Schedule 2, we will let you know as soon as possible and you must cancel any future or recurring transactions you have set that are linked to the relevant account.

(c) We are not liable for any loss you suffer as a consequence of us cancelling or suspending your right to make payments, your use of a particular payment method or if we delay, block, freeze or refuse a transaction, except to the extent that your loss is as a result of our negligence, fraud or wilful default.

8. Bill Payment

(a) After you submit a bill payment Instruction on the Mox app, the merchant you have selected will receive the payment after any minimum processing time we may set for bill payments.

(b) You must not transfer an amount to a merchant to pay a bill that will exceed any limit we have set for bill payments.

(i) we provide information to our electronic payment system provider(s), including a list of all users who have made payments, and the respective amounts paid, to merchants using bill payment; and
(ii) our electronic payment system provider(s) provides such information to the relevant merchants.

If you use the Mox app for bill payments, you consent to us disclosing such information relating to you to our electronic payment system provider(s) and acknowledge that our electronic system provider(s) will provide such information to the relevant merchants for the purposes set out above.

For the avoidance of doubt, a Proxy ID is not intended for verifying eDDA setup. Any amendment of a Proxy ID and the related records or termination of a Proxy ID after an eDDA setup will not affect that eDDA.

(b) For any subsequent changes including but not limited to amendment, cancellation, suspension or reactivation received from the payee Participant in relation to an eDDA setup, we will proceed with the changes without further notification to you.

13. QR Code Services

(a) This clause 13 applies to the use of the QR Code Services, together with our other terms and conditions and any other terms and conditions that apply to the Mox app through which you access the QR Code Services.

(b) Using the QR Code Services and Your Responsibility

(i) The QR Code Services allow you to scan or present a QR code provided by us or by another person to automatically capture the payment or funds transfer data without the need for manually entering the data. Any QR code provided by another person must meet the specifications and standards prescribed by HKICL in order to be accepted. You are fully responsible for ensuring that the captured data is accurate and complete before confirming any payment or funds transfer instruction. We are not responsible for any error contained in such payment or funds transfer data.
(ii) The QR Code Services can be used on a mobile device running an operating system supported and specified by us from time to time.
(iii) Updates to the QR Code Services may be issued periodically through the supplying app store for the Mox app. For some devices, updates will be downloaded automatically. For other devices, you will need to download the updates themselves. Depending on the update, you may not be able to use the QR Code Services until the latest version has been downloaded. You are fully responsible for ensuring the latest version has been downloaded to your mobile device for the purpose of using the QR Code Services.
(iv) The QR Code Services are intended for use by our customers only. We have the right to cancel your account for the Mox app and/or block you from accessing the QR Code Services if we discover that you are not eligible to use the QR Code Services.
(v) The QR Code Services are not intended for use in any jurisdiction where their use would be contrary to any law or regulation of that jurisdiction or where we are not licensed or authorised to provide the QR Code Services.
(vi) You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations that govern your download of the Mox app, or access or use of the Mox app or the QR Code Services.

(i) You must not use the QR Code Services on any device or operating system that has been modified outside the mobile device or operating system vendor supported or warranted configurations. This includes devices that have been “jail-broken” or “rooted”. A jail broken or rooted device means one that has been freed from the limitations imposed on it by your mobile service provider and the phone manufacturer without their approval. The use of the QR Code Services on a jail broken or rooted device may compromise security and lead to fraudulent transactions. Use of the QR Code Services in a jail broken or rooted device is entirely at your own risk and we will not be liable for any losses or any other consequences suffered or incurred by you as a result.
(ii) You are fully responsible for all Instructions or requests given by you or any other person authorised by you during the use of the QR Code Services.
(iii) You are fully responsible for ensuring that the information shown or stored on your mobile device is kept secure.
(iv) If you know or suspect that any other person knows your security details, or has used or tried to use them, or if your mobile device is lost or stolen, you must notify us as soon as reasonably practicable.

(d) Our Responsibility and Restriction of Liability

(i) While we make commercially reasonable efforts to provide the QR Code Services, we are not liable for any failure to provide the QR Code Services.
(ii) The QR Code Services are provided on an “as is” basis with no representation, guarantee or agreement of any kind as to their functionality. We cannot guarantee that no viruses or other contaminating or destructive properties will be transmitted or that no damage will occur to your mobile device in the use of the QR Code Services. We are not responsible for any loss you may incur as a result of your use of the QR Code Services.
(iii) You understand and agree that:
- (A) you use the QR Code Services at your sole risk. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we expressly disclaim all warranties and conditions of any kind, whether express or implied; and
- (B) you download or obtain any material or information through the use of the QR Code Services at your sole risk and discretion. You are solely responsible for any damage to your computer or other device or loss of data resulting from downloading, obtaining or using such material or information.

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing above is intended to exclude or restrict any condition, warranty, right or liability which may not be lawfully excluded or restricted.

14. Your Responsibility

(a) Present Genuine Owner or Authorised User of Proxy ID and Accounts

You can only register your own Proxy ID for your own accounts or set up eDDA for your own accounts. You must be the present genuine owner or authorised user of each Proxy ID and each account provided to us for registration in the Addressing Service and the eDDA Service. By instructing us to register any Proxy ID or any account for you in relation to the Faster Payment System, you confirm that you are the present genuine owner or authorised user of the relevant Proxy ID or account. This is particularly important for mobile phone numbers as they may be recycled in Hong Kong.

(b) Proxy ID

Any Proxy ID to be registered by you for the Addressing Service must satisfy any applicable requirements imposed by HKICL from time to time. For example, HKICL may require the mobile phone number or email address to be registered as Proxy ID to be the same number or address registered by you as contact information on our records at the relevant time. You understand and agree that we, other Participants and HKICL have the right and discretion without giving notice to deregister any Proxy ID that is not correct or up-to-date in accordance with available information without your consent.

(i) You have to ensure that all the information provided by you for registration or amendment of Proxy ID (or any related records) or for any eDDA setup is correct, complete, up-to-date and not misleading. You have to notify us as soon as reasonably practicable of any changes or updates to such information by such means or in such manner specified by us from time to time.
(ii) You are fully responsible for using the correct and up-to-date Proxy ID and related records in giving each payment or funds transfer instruction. You are solely liable for and will hold us harmless from any incorrect payment or transfer effected by us and HKICL FPS due to incorrect or outdated Proxy ID or related records.

(d) Timely Updates

You are fully responsible for giving instructions and information changes or updates to us on a timely basis for amending your Proxy ID (or related records) or any eDDA setup, including without limitation changing your Default Account, or terminating any Proxy ID or eDDA. You acknowledge that keeping your Proxy ID, eDDA and all related records up-to-date is critical for ensuring effective execution of payment and funds transfer instructions and for avoiding incorrect payment or transfer due to incorrect or outdated Proxy ID, eDDA or related records.

(e) Change of Default Account

If an account is terminated as the Default Account by you or by the relevant Participant for any reason (including suspension or termination of the account), the system of HKICL will automatically assign the most recently registered record in the Addressing Service that is associated with the same Proxy ID to be the Default Account. If you wish to set another account as the Default Account, you have to change the registration through the Participant where you maintain that other account.

(f) Transactions Binding on You

(i) For any payment or funds transfer, once you confirm the details of a transaction and submit an Instruction to us, such Instruction and any resulting transaction is final, irrevocable and binding on you.
(ii) For any Proxy ID registration or eDDA setup, once you submit an Instruction to us, such Instruction is irrevocable and binding on you. You may amend or cancel any Proxy ID or eDDA setup in accordance with the procedures and requirements prescribed by us from time to time.

(g) Use FPS Services Responsibly

You must use the FPS Services in a responsible manner. In particular, you have to comply with the following obligations:

(i) you must comply with all Regulatory Requirements that govern your use of the FPS Services, including collecting, using and handling the personal data and other information relating to any other person in compliance with the Regulatory Requirements protecting data privacy. You must not use the FPS Services for any unlawful purposes or any purposes other than those authorised or contemplated in the rules, guidelines and procedures of HKICL;
(ii) in sending remarks or messages to be displayed to recipients or counterparties of your payment or funds transfer instructions or eDDA setup using HKICL FPS, you should mask the name or other data of such recipients or counterparties to prevent unauthorised display or disclosure of any personal data or confidential data; and
(iii) if we offer the FPS Identifier as Proxy ID to you, you should not repeatedly cancel the registration and request for generation of another FPS Identifier in an attempt to generate a number or value that you desire.

(h) Other Obligations Regarding Payments and Funds Transfers

Any Instruction given by you in relation to the FPS Services will be handled by us in accordance with this Part B and the applicable provisions in our terms and conditions. You have to comply with the other obligations with respect to payments, funds transfers and direct debit authorisations, including without limitation maintaining sufficient funds in the relevant accounts for settling payment and funds transfer instructions from time to time.

(i) You are Responsible for Your Authorised Persons

Where you authorise any other person to give Instructions or requests to us in connection with the use of the FPS Services (whether you are an individual, a company, a corporation, or a sole proprietorship or partnership firm or any other unincorporated body):

(i) you are responsible for all the acts and omissions of each person authorised by you;
(ii) any instruction or request received by us, believed by us in good faith to be given by you or any person authorised by you, will be irrevocable and binding on you; and
(iii) you are also responsible for ensuring that each person authorised by you will comply with the provisions of this Part B that are applicable to him/her when acting on your behalf.

15. Our Responsibility and Restriction of Liability

(a) We will process and submit your Instructions and requests to HKICL FPS in accordance with the applicable rules, guidelines and procedures imposed by HKICL from time to time. HKICL FPS has the right to process and execute your Instructions and requests in such sequence or manner as HKICL considers appropriate. We have no control over the operation of HKICL FPS nor the timing on which your Instructions or requests are executed by HKICL FPS. Where we receive status update notifications involving any of your Proxy ID (or related records) or eDDA setup or any other matter relating to HKICL FPS from or through HKICL FPS from time to time, we will notify you accordingly by such means and at such time as we consider appropriate.

(b) Without reducing the effect of clause 15(a) of this Schedule 2 or the other provisions of our terms and conditions:

(i) we are not liable for loss, damage or expense of any kind which you or any other person may incur or suffer arising from or in connection with the use of the FPS Services or the processing or execution of Instructions or requests given by you in relation to the FPS Services or HKICL FPS, except to the extent that any loss, damage or expense incurred or suffered is direct and reasonably foreseeable arising directly and solely from our negligence or wilful default or that of our officers, employees or agents;
(ii) for clarity, we are not liable for loss, damage or expense of any kind which you or any other person may incur or suffer arising from or in connection with one or more of the following:
- (A) your failure to comply with your obligations relating to the FPS Services; and
- (B) any delay, unavailability, disruption, failure, error of or caused by HKICL FPS, or arising from any circumstances beyond our reasonable control; and
(iii) in no event will we, our affiliates, our licensors, and our affiliates’ and licensors’ respective officers, employees and agents be liable to you or any other person for any loss of profit or any special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive loss or damages (whether or not they were foreseeable or likely to occur).

(i) Without reducing the effect of any indemnity given by you under our terms and conditions or any other rights or remedies that we may have, you will indemnify us and our officers, employees and agents and hold each of them harmless against all liabilities, claims, demands, losses, damages, costs, charges and expenses of any kind (including legal fees on a full indemnity basis and other expenses reasonably incurred) which may be incurred or suffered by us or any of them and all actions or proceedings which may be brought by or against us or any of them as a result of or in connection with our provision of the FPS Services or your use of the FPS Services.
(ii) The above indemnity does not apply to the extent that it is proved that any liabilities, claims, demands, losses, damages, costs, charges, expenses, actions or proceedings are direct and reasonably foreseeable arising directly and solely from our negligence or wilful default or that of our officers, employees or agents. The above indemnity shall continue to have effect after the termination of the FPS Services.

(i) you;

all personal data and information provided to us or compiled by us from time to time in connection with the FPS Services are collectively referred to as “Customer Information”.

(b) You agree (and, where applicable, for and on behalf of each of your directors, officers, employees, authorised persons and representatives) that we may collect, use, process, retain or transfer any of the Customer Information for the purposes of the FPS Services.
