4. Terms of use. The Card shall be used by PicPay exclusively for the situations provided for in Exhibit I (Transactional Flow). PicPay is responsible for any loss and damage arising from the improper, incorrect, inappropriate, invalid and unauthorized use, disclosure and access of the Card, including through fraudulent means.

 

4.1. Transactions carried out electronically may be vulnerable to the actions of third parties, so it is recommended to have adequate, updated security software and licensed and original computer programs. It is also recommended to maintain antivirus with protection against possible interference from third parties and to report any suspicions of invasion.

 

4.2. All transactions that may be carried out with the Card shall be considered accepted and valid by PicPay as an effective means of proving their authorship, authenticity, integrity and confidentiality.

 

4.3. Original provides services without interruption, subject to the established operating hours. Momentary instabilities in its systems may occur and they may be shut down for maintenance, which may interfere with the use of the Card. PicPay is aware of and agrees that the occurrence of these episodes does not characterize any defect in the provision of services and does not assign any liability to Original.

 

5. Transaction Dispute. Original may require the submission of statements and documents necessary to support transaction disputes. Original has no legal or contractual obligation to suspend payment or anticipate the return of the disputed amount or indemnify any losses arising from the transaction disputed by PicPay. The possible suspension of payment or the anticipation of a disputed amount, if authorized by Original, does not release PicPay from the obligation to pay the other amounts posted on the invoice.

 

5.1. If there is no irregularity in the disputed entry or if there is a disagreement with the merchant, Original shall consider the dispute closed and the amount eventually anticipated or suspended by Original shall be posted on the subsequent invoice, plus charges and other amounts determined for arrears.

 

5.2. Original is not responsible and does not answer for: (i) the restriction on the use of the Card at the merchants; (ii) commercial disagreement between PicPay and the merchant and/or losses resulting from it; (iii) the price, quantity and quality of the goods or services purchased; (iv) possible system interruptions that make it impossible, temporarily or not, to carry out transactions with the Card.

 

6. Prohibited Transactions. It is expressly forbidden to use the Card in transactions for the purchase of goods and/or services that result from illegal practices, such as gambling over the internet or in casinos.

 

7. Invoice. It is the statement made available daily by electronic means and which contains all the transactions carried out on the previous day. PicPay must check the entries made on the invoice. Any dispute procedures may be registered by PicPay with Original within 45 calendar days from the date of the transaction. The invoice is paid in accordance with the rules set out in Exhibit II (Financial Flow).

 

7.1. Arrears. Failure to pay the invoice or payment in amount lower than that charged shall characterize late payment and shall be subject, to the date of the actual payment, to: (i) compensatory interest over the outstanding debt balance; (ii) a 2% fine on the total amount due; (iii) late payment interest of 1% per month; and (iv) IOF (Tax on Financial Transactions).

8. Card Blocking and/or Cancellation.

8.1. The Card may be canceled if late payment is not rectified, if there is any wrongdoing in the Card use or in case of non-compliance with the obligations provided for in this Agreement or due to commercial disinterest.

 

8.2. PicPay, if wishing to do so, may ask Original to block the Card.

 

9. Loss or Theft of Card Credentials. PicPay is responsible for the safe and correct use of the Card and its credentials. Events of this nature must be reported to Original immediately and within forty-eight (48) hours. Original is not responsible for any losses in such cases.
