These Terms govern the use of our digital currency automated kiosks (each a “Kiosk”, “CoinFlip Kiosk”), digital currency wallet (“CoinFlip Wallet”), mobile application (“App”), this website and any related services we may provide (the “Services”). These Terms of Service govern your use of the Services. The Services are offered to you conditioned on your acceptance, without modification, of the terms, conditions, and notices herein. By visiting this website or using this Kiosk, you accept these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, you should not use the Company website or this Kiosk. Your continued use of this site or Kiosk means that you agree to be bound by our Terms of Service. Our Services are also governed by our Privacy Policy and you acknowledge that personal information will be treated in accordance with our Privacy Policy. In addition, when using certain Services, you will be subject to any additional terms applicable to such Services. You agree that from time to time, we may review and update these Terms, including to take account of new laws, regulations, products or technology.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully, which contain important information regarding your legal rights, remedies, and obligations.
Disclosure of Material Risks of the Services
Digital currency is not legal tender and is not backed by any government or financial institution and is not subject to any government guarantee or other protections;
Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of digital currency;
You are responsible for verifying the accuracy of all transaction information prior to using our Services as transactions in digital currency are irreversible, and, accordingly, losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions are not recoverable;
Digital currency transactions shall be deemed to be made when recorded on the network's public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that the Customer initiates the transaction;
The value of digital currency may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange fiat currency, such as Australian dollars, for digital currency, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of digital currency should the market for digital currency fall;
There is no assurance that any person who accepts digital currency as payment today will continue to do so in the future;
The volatility and unpredictability of the price of digital currency relative to fiat currency may result in significant or total loss;
The nature of digital currency as an Internet based protocol may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyber attack; and
The Company does not guarantee the Services’ availability.
Risk of Loss
A Customer assumes all risk of loss associated with the holding of any digital currency and acknowledges that digital currency is a volatile asset and that digital currency is a volatile asset class. Digital currencies are not entitled to any government guarantee scheme or other protection, and are not otherwise insured or guaranteed by the Company or any other party. The Company does not hold an Australian Financial Services Licence and does not provide any financial product advice or guidance on the suitability of holding digital currencies. The Company is not in any way responsible if the price of digital currency decreases following a Customer’s purchase. All information provided on the Services is, unless otherwise indicated, factual information and does not involve any recommendation or statement of opinion by us or any third party. Such information does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs and you should consider obtaining professional financial advice before making any investment decisions.
The Company is not in any way responsible for the safekeeping of a Customer’s digital currency following purchase. The Company is not a custodian of the Customer’s funds or digital currency and has no ability to access Customer funds on any digital currency wallet.
In order to access our Services, you may be required to use a digital currency wallet provided by a third party. If you use the CoinFlip Wallet, you agree to the CoinFlip Wallet Terms of Use (“CoinFlip Wallet Terms”), provided below. You must use your own digital currency wallet. You are not permitted to use the digital currency wallet of any other person or any third party. If the Company recommends that the Customer use third party wallet applications for the storage of digital currency, it is solely that Customer’s responsibility to conduct his or her own due diligence on those applications before using them. We have no control of or responsibility for any such wallets provided by a third party and cannot provide support for these wallets. The Company cannot provide any technical or Customer support for any malfunction or other issue that may arise in connection with your use of such wallets. You are wholly responsible for maintaining the security of any wallet you may use in connection with the Services. The Company is not responsible in any way for the functionality of such wallets or the safekeeping or security of digital currency sent by the Company to or from a third party wallet, or any digital currency stored in a third party wallet. Customer acknowledges and agrees that they will only use a wallet owned by Customer to conduct transactions using the Services.
Customer Eligibility to Use the Service
In order for us to meet our obligations under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth) and associated Rules (the “AML/CTF obligations”), we are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each of our Customers as well as certain information about our Customers' beneficial owners (where relevant).
What this means for you: when you request a transaction at any Kiosk or use the App, we may ask for your name, address, date of birth, information about the source of funds and other information that will allow us to identify you and verify your identity. We may also ask to see your driver’s licence or other identifying documents, which we may request from you when those identifying documents expire and or when we are otherwise required to do so pursuant to our AML/CTF obligations. This required identifying information may change at any time for any reason.
You may be required to complete this identity verification process to the satisfaction of Company in order to access and use a Kiosk or certain features of the Services or to do so at a later date. You agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself. Even if you have previously verified your identity with us, we may ask for additional information to allow us to verify your identity again. This may occur at any time and for any reason. We may refuse to open an account for you, or restrict or close your existing account if we cannot verify your information, or if you do not provide identifying information and documents as requested.
We are not liable for any loss incurred by you as a result of any action by us which either delays a transaction from occurring or results in a transaction being declined, when these actions are necessary for us to comply with our AML/CTF obligations.
We may use a third party document verification service to verify Customers' government issued identification.
If you are under 18 years of age, you are not authorised to use the Services. The Company does not accept entities or legal persons other than natural persons as Customers of the Services. The Services are for personal use only. We reserve the right to reject any person as a Customer of the Services at our discretion.
You are not permitted to use the digital currency wallet of any other person or any third party. As a Customer, you agree to use your own digital currency wallet for any and all transactions. Further, you agree that you are an Australian based Customer and that your digital currency wallet is located in Australia.
Your Account
To access some features of the Services, you may be required to create an account (“User Account”) with us or with a third party that operates that portion of our Services. If you create an account with such a third party, their terms of use and privacy policy will apply to your use of the account in addition to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
You must be at least 18 years of age to register for a User Account, and by registering you represent and warrant that you are eligible for a User Account under this provision.
When creating an account, you agree that all account registration information you submit, including any documentation such as your government issued identification, will be your own, true, and accurate. We reserve the right to refuse account registration for any reason or no reason which is legal. A Customer’s account is tied to the Customer’s mobile phone number, email address, and/or identification. A Customer may only be able to access the Service using the email address and/or mobile phone number first provided to the Company.
This is an individual account. You may not jointly own or share your account with any other person for any reason. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password for Services requiring a password. You may not allow any other person to conduct a transaction using your account or identity for any reason, or use any other person’s account or identity to conduct a transaction, even if that person permits you to do so. You may not assign or transfer your account or any interest in your account to any other person. You agree to notify us immediately, as set forth in the Contact Us section below, of any unauthorised use of your account. You agree that you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password for Services requiring a password. To the extent permissible by law, all activity conducted in connection with your User Account will be your responsibility.
A Customer’s account is tied to the Customer’s mobile phone number and identification. A Customer may only be able to access the Services using the mobile phone number first provided to the Company.

Subject to applicable law, you are responsible for all transactions and activity conducted on your account, regardless of whether you authorised it. We have no responsibility for the loss, theft, or unauthorised use of your account or any device you use to access your account or the Service. Subject to applicable law, a Customer assumes all responsibility in the safekeeping of his or her digital currency and any digital currency wallet(s).

Transactions and Limitations
Transactions may be made only in Australian Dollars and the digital currencies supported by the Company. Supported digital currencies may change from time to time. If you send the Company any digitalcurrency other than the supported digital currency you indicated at the beginning of a sell transaction, the Company may be unable to return the digital currency to you. In such an event, the Company is not liable to you for the lost digital currency and will not refund you any amount.
ALL TRANSACTIONS ARE IRREVERSIBLE AND NON REFUNDABLE. You have no right to stop payment on any transaction. The Kiosk may provide you with a physical transaction receipt or a digital receipt via SMS text message. Please keep this transaction receipt for your records.
The Company may at any time limit the amount of any transaction that may be conducted by a Customer, and institute daily, weekly and/or monthly transaction limits on a Customer’s use of the Service. These limits may be changed at any time for any reason by the Company in its sole discretion, with or without notice to you. Use of multiple wallets or another person’s identifying information to circumvent these limits is strictly prohibited and may result in suspension of your ability to use the Service. We have the absolute right to close or suspend your account at any time, and for any reason not prohibited by law. We also have the absolute right in our sole discretion to reject any transaction request.
If we are served with any court order, regulatory authority direction or other legal process relating to your account or use of the Service (“Legal Action”), we will comply with that Legal Action. We may freeze or place a hold on any assets you have tendered to us, until a final determination has been made by a court or relevant regulatory authority regarding the Legal Action. We may do these things even if the Legal Action involves less than the amount on which the hold was placed. In these cases, we will not have any liability to you because we fail to complete your requested transaction, or because in any way restricted access to your funds, account, or use of the Service in accordance with the Legal Action. You may be responsible for any fees or expenses we incur in responding to any Legal Action (including attorneys' fees and our reasonable internal expenses).
We may also place a hold on any assets you tender at a Kiosk if we believe, in our sole discretion, that the requested transaction is suspicious or is in violation of law or these Terms of Service. We may refuse to release the hold on any such funds for as long as we deem reasonably necessary to complete an investigation of the activity or source of the assets. Funds may be frozen, blocked, or delivered to a regulatory authority if required by applicable law, at the order, direction, or request of a regulatory authority, or as reasonably necessary to ensure the Company can comply with all of its legal obligations and cooperate with any investigation, subpoena, inquiry, request for information, examination, or similar request from a regulatory authority.
Fees
Fees at Kiosks
You agree that the Company may charge and you will pay a fee of up to approximately 16.99% of the total transaction amount (the “Transaction Fee”). The Transaction Fee refers to the difference between the cash inserted or received at the Kiosk and the current Market Price of the digital currency purchased or sold, excluding the Network Fee. “Market Price” shall mean the actual market price of the digital currency being traded at the time the transaction is executed by Company, as determined solely by Company. Company uses CoinAPI indexing to determine Market Price. Company reserves the right to use a different source without notice to determine Market Price for any reason where Company considers it reasonable to do so. By transacting with Company, you waive any claims or liability against Company based on the manner in which Company determines the Market Price. Company also charges a minimum $1.99 Network Fee.
“Network Fee” shall mean the minimum $1.99 fee applied towards the required payment to use the applicable blockchain to send your selected digital currency to your digital currency wallet. Due to the nature of how Company processes customer transactions, Company may periodically profit from the Network Fee. During times of high transaction volume, the Network Fee may be increased. By transacting with Company you waive any claims or liability against Company based on the charged Network Fee.
There may be additional fees applied to your transaction by the blockchain responsible for computing the transaction. These fees are often called “gas” fees and are deducted from your transaction automatically and sent directly to the blockchain. Similar to gas fees, some tokens created by a blockchain may have fees specific to them. For example, the Ethereum blockchain charges a 0.02% fee on all PaxG transactions when the token is both sent and received. Company does not control or receive gas fees or token-specific fees.
The Transaction Fee is calculated as a percentage over the Market Price, as described in full in the paragraph above. The Transaction Fee and Network Fee are included in the exchange rate applicable to your transaction. Before you complete a transaction, we will tell you the exchange rate applicable to your transaction. In other words, Company will tell you: (1) the amount you must pay in fiat currency to purchase a certain amount of digital currency from Company or (2) the amount Company will pay you in fiat currency to purchase a certain amount of digital currency from you. By proceeding with the transaction, you agree to pay the exchange rate, including the Transaction Fee and Network Fee, and you agree to the other terms applicable to the transaction as set forth in these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you may not proceed with the transaction and must immediately discontinue your use of the Kiosk for that transaction.
Company reserves the right to change its Transaction Fees. You understand and acknowledge that all Company Kiosks may not charge the same Transaction Fees. By completing your transaction, you acknowledge that you have been presented the exchange rate applicable to your transaction and have agreed to it, including the Transaction Fee and Network Fee.
Company offers a rate matching program to ensure that our fees are low, applicable to fees charged at Company Kiosks, only. If you have found a lower regularly advertised fee for the same service on a digital currency kiosk within 8 kilometres of the Company Kiosk you intended to use, contact Company at 1300 689 526. To take advantage of this program, you must provide: (1) the Company Kiosk location you intended to utilise and (2) proof of the lower fee (inclusive of all costs) for a competitor digital currency kiosk located within 8 kilometres of the Company Kiosk you intended to use. Company reserves the right to deny the rate match if proof of a lower fee is not provided, is fraudulent, or is otherwise inadequate.
Fees in the App
For purchases in the App, you will be required to pay a Processing Fee, a Transaction Fee, and a Network Fee. The Processing Fee is calculated as a percentage over the Market Price, as detailed below. The Processing Fee will be different based on your chosen payment method (e.g. debit card processing fee, credit card processing fee). Before you confirm a transaction, we will provide you the exchange rate applicable to your transaction in addition to all applicable fees, including the Processing Fee, Transaction Fee, and Network Fee. By proceeding with the transaction, you agree to pay the exchange rate, including the Transaction Fee, Processing Fee, and Network Fee, and you agree to the other terms applicable to the transaction as set forth in these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you must not proceed with the transaction and must immediately discontinue your use of the Services for that transaction.
Customer Obligations
It is the sole responsibility of the Customer to check the accuracy of information entered while using the Service, including, but not limited, to the amount of the requested transaction, the type of currency or digital currency to be exchanged and transferred, and the account/digital currency address to or from which the digital currency will be transferred. Account/digital currency address details displayed on the order summary page will be the final transfer destination. By submitting a transaction request at a Kiosk, you authorise us to complete the transaction according to the information you entered and was presented to you on the order summary page. In the case that this information is incorrect, and funds are transferred to an unintended destination, the Company shall not reimburse the Customer nor be liable for any loss. As such, Customers must ensure the digital currency address entered or scanned is correct. If we believe any error occurred with respect to a transaction you made at a Company Kiosk, we may, but are not required to, charge your account or the wallet you presented at the Kiosk as needed to correct the error. You hereby authorise all such charges and agree to provide us with any information we need to conduct that transaction.
We will use our best efforts to fulfil your transaction requests, however we do not guarantee that your transaction requests will be wholly or partially executed by a certain time due to reasons including if:
your instructions are contrary to the terms applicable to you and the terms of any third party provider we use;
the transaction request is unexecuted due to any act or omission of any third party;
your instructions are ambiguous or incomplete;
your instructions would result in a breach of the law;
your order may need to be manually vetted.
You agree not to use the Service to engage in any activities that violate any applicable local, state, federal or international law, or to perform any type of illegal or illicit activity of any sort, including, but not limited to, money laundering, narcotics trafficking, human trafficking, tax evasion, or terrorism financing, or do anything to negatively affect the performance of the Service or violate these Terms of Service. Suspicion of using the Service for an unauthorised or illegal activity, or in violation of these Terms of Service, is cause for the Company to suspend all access of a Customer to the Service; whether this suspicion is warranted is exclusively within the absolute discretion of the Company.
You agree to respond to all inquiries from the Company regarding the Customer’s account or transactions; failure to diligently respond to the Company’s inquiries may result in a suspension of the account and future transactions.

You may change these preferences by calling us at 1300 689 526 or emailing [email protected] or by using the unsubscribe function provided in each of our SMS to no longer receive marketing communications from us.

Terms Applicable to CoinFlip Wallet
Wallet Account
When you access certain features of the Services, you will be able to create a wallet and/or access a wallet to store digital currencies. You will not give the Company any of your assets, and your tokens and digital currency are not in possession of the Company when they are in a CoinFlip Wallet. All assets are on the blockchain itself, and we do not control them. The Company does not collect or hold your keys, recovery codes or information, and the Company cannot access wallets; recover keys, passwords, or other information; reset passwords; or reverse transactions. You are solely responsible for your use of the Services, including without limitation for storing, backing up, and maintaining the confidentiality of your keys, passwords, recovery codes, and information, and for the security of any transactions you perform using the Services. You expressly relieve and release the Company from any and all liability and/or loss arising from your use of the Services.
Supported Digital Currencies
The CoinFlip Wallet is intended solely for proper use of supported digital currencies as designated by the App, CoinFlip Kiosks and CoinFlip Preferred. Under no circumstances should you attempt to use your CoinFlip Wallet to store, send, request, or receive any assets other than supported digital currencies. The Company assumes no responsibility in connection with any attempt to use your CoinFlip Wallet with digital currencies that we do not support. If you have any questions about our current list of supported digital currencies, please contact CoinFlip customer support. In addition, you agree that the CoinFlip Wallet does not support the following: metacoins, colored coins, side chains, or other derivative, enhanced, or forked protocols, tokens, or coins or other functionality, such as staking, protocol governance, and/or any smart contract functionality, which may supplement or interact with a digital currency we support. You acknowledge and agree that supplemental protocols are excluded from supported digital currency and that the Company has no liability for any losses related to supplemental protocols.
Ownership of Digital Currency
Title and ownership of digital currency shall at all times remain with you and shall not transfer to the Company, unless you sell the subject digital currency to the Company at two-way CoinFlip Kiosk or CoinFlip Preferred. As the owner of digital currency in your CoinFlip Wallet, you shall bear all risk of loss of such digital currency. The Company shall have no liability for digital currency fluctuations.
Blockchain
Due to the inherent transparency of many blockchains, transactions that individuals broadcast via the CoinFlip Wallet may be publicly accessible. This includes, but is not limited to, your public sending address, the public address of the receiver, the amount sent or received, and any other data a user has chosen to include in a given transaction. Information stored on a blockchain may be public, immutable, and difficult or even impossible to remove or delete. Transactions and addresses may reveal information about the user’s identity and information can potentially be correlated now or in the future by any party who chooses to do so, including law enforcement. Users are encouraged to review how privacy and transparency on the blockchain works.
Wallet Recovery Codes
When you create a CoinFlip Wallet, you are given five “Wallet Recovery Codes”. The Company does not control any of your personal or private data on our servers, including your Wallet Recovery Codes. If you lose your mobile phone, tablet, or computer, and need to restore your CoinFlip Wallet, you can only do so with your Wallet Recovery Codes. The CoinFlip Wallet is not a cloud-based solution. If your device breaks, is lost, stolen, or has data corruption, there is no way for the Company’s support team to recover your CoinFlip Wallet for You. Your Wallet Recovery Codes are the only way to recover your CoinFlip Wallet. Anyone who has Wallet Recovery Codes and/or private keys could potentially send digital currency from your accounts. Never share them with anyone, including the Company. We will never ask for you to provide this. If someone claims that we do, insist on not sharing. Please report to us the person who claims to be a Company team member and asks for your Wallet Recovery Codes and/or private keys.
