Currency Conversion
Our Services include the ability to convert currencies, for example:
- As part of a Transfer;
A conversion fee will apply when we perform a currency conversion. You can also find out more information about the fees we charge on the Website and below in the Fees section. A currency conversion order may either be:
- a "Fixed Source Order" which is a currency conversion order where you indicate that you wish to convert a fixed amount of Source Currency in order for you or your recipient to receive the converted amount in the Target Currency; or
- a "Fixed Target Order" which is a currency conversion order where you indicate that you wish to convert a fixed amount of Target Currency in order to you or your recipient to receive the corrected amount in the Source Currency.
You can only place a Fixed Target Order for certain Source Currencies.
We will only process your currency conversion order if we hold or have received the relevant funds and the fees from your ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. Account. You can find a list of all fees on the Website and a summary fee disclosure required by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. It is your responsibility to send us the money to fund a currency conversion order in a timely manner. We cannot be responsible for the time it takes for the money to be sent to us by your bank or payment service provider.
Refusing a currency conversion order. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to refuse any currency conversion order. Reasons for refusal may include but are not limited to incorrect information about the recipient, insufficient available funds, or where we believe you may have violated this Customer Agreement, including we believe you are attempting to engage in currency trading or other trading for purposes not permitted by this Customer Agreement. We will endeavor to notify you of any refusal, using the contact information in your ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. Account, stating (where possible) the reasons for such refusal and explaining how to correct any errors. However, we will not notify you if such notification may be unlawful.
Once we have received your currency conversion order, we will send you a confirmation by email that we have received it. Each currency conversion order is given a unique transaction number which is shown in the transaction history on your ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. Account. You should quote this transaction number when communicating with us about a particular currency conversion order.
When will I be notified of my next scheduled transfers.
If you have scheduled a transfer in advance then we will notify you 24 hours before your upcoming transfer, setting out the total fees and the estimated 'live' exchange rate for that transfer. By scheduling a transfer, you agree to TW sending the funds using the live exchange rate at any time on the scheduled date. If you have opted in to receiving emails, we will send you a transfer receipt after successfully sending your scheduled transfer. For more information on scheduled transfers see our Website.
Exchange rate.
When we refer to an exchange rate in this Customer Agreement, it means the exchange rate at the relevant time for the relevant currency pair (for example, GBP to EUR, USD to AUD) that is offered by ESTARTECH PTE.LTD., which is typically provided by a reference rate provider. We may change our reference rate provider from time to time without notice to you.
For some currencies, we do not use the mid-market exchange rate, including where we are required to use a different reference rate for the exchange rate for your currency pair. For example, for currency conversions to Nigeria (NGN), we are required to use the rate set by the Central Bank of Nigeria. For these currencies we will notify you of the exchange rate offered by ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. when you place your payment order.
Guaranteed rates.
We will notify you of the guaranteed rate and the guaranteed time period (the "Guaranteed Period") when you create your Money Transfer. Guaranteed Periods are subject to the following conditions:
(a) The Guaranteed Period may be extended if your Money Transfer is created over the weekend or public holiday.
(b) We must receive sufficient funds from you during the Guaranteed Period in order to convert your money at the guaranteed rate. You will see when we have received your money by logging into your ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. Account.
(c) If we receive your funds after the Guaranteed Period, we will not be able to convert your money using the guaranteed rate and your transfer will become a non-guaranteed rate transfer. Accordingly, we may convert your money at the applicable exchange rate at the time we receive your money or we will email you and ask you if you want to proceed with your transfer at the new exchange rate.
(d) If the relevant exchange rate (as provided by our reference exchange rate provider) changes by 5% or more during the Guaranteed Period, we can, at our option, suspend your transfer for a reasonable period of time or cancel your transfer and refund the money to you.
(e) For certain currencies, including where you are sending from Japanese Yen (JPY), the guaranteed rate will only be offered after your address has been verified by us.
(f) We may change these guaranteed rate conditions or suspend the guarantee rate feature at any time.
Auto Conversion.
For certain currencies, you may be able to set one or more conversion orders to be automatically executed once the exchange rate you pick is offered by our Services (an "auto conversion order"). There may be limits to the number of auto conversion orders you are able to set up, as well as the amounts of money you can schedule to convert. ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. does not guarantee that it will be able to execute your auto conversion order in all circumstances.
We are not a currency trading platform.
ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. is not a currency trading platform, and accordingly, you should not use our Services, including the ESTARTECH PTE.LTD. Account or the auto conversion order function for this purpose (including creating multiple auto conversion orders or a series of Money Transfers without the intention of completing them or for seeking to profit from FX trading). If we detect that you are using our Services for this purpose, we may, at in our sole discretion, set a limit on the number of auto conversion orders you may create, cancel your orders, set a limit on the amount of money you can convert or transfer in one or more currencies or in the same currency, restrict your ability to use this or other features, or suspend or close your ESTARTECH PTE.LTD.
