Terms and Conditions

These Yeel Terms and Conditions (these “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you (“you” or “your”) and Yeel Mobile Payment and Daryeel Bank, a Somali bank licensed and regulated by the Central bank of Somalia (“Bank”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), that govern your use of Yeel, including the Yeel PrePaid Account and the Funds Transfer Service (each, as defined below), which allows you to send and receive money and make purchases with Yeel Mobile Payment (collectively, the “Services”).

1. THE SERVICES
  • A. Generally. The Services consist of two separate functions that we will provide unless we otherwise designate a third party to perform any aspect of those functions: (i) the “Yeel Mobile Payment”, which is a mobile payment via QR code and (ii) the “Funds Transfer Service”, which is a service that allows you to: (a) send money to other individuals that are eligible to use the Services and have accepted these Terms (each such person, a “User”, and each such transfer, a “P2P Transfer”), (b) load funds onto your Yeel PrePaid Account, and (c) transfer money from your Yeel PrePaid Account to your designated bank account at a SOMALI financial institution (a “Bank Transfer”). Each aspect of the Services, including the conditions and limitations on their use, is described in greater detail below. The Services may only be used for personal, noncommercial purposes
  • B. Yeel PrePaid Account with Bank. When you accept these Terms, you will be creating a user account with us for your use of the Services (your “Yeel PrePaid Account”), which includes: (i) a PrePaid account that will receive and hold your funds and which is accessible via your Yeel PrePaid Account; and (ii) a record of your use of the Funds Transfer Service. References to your Yeel PrePaid Account include all Services provided through the account unless otherwise expressly noted. References to funds maintained on your Yeel PrePaid Account mean funds in your Yeel PrePaid Account.
  • C. Eligibility. In order to create an Yeel Prepaid Account and use the Services, you must be 18 years of age or older and (i) accept and agree to these Terms, our Electronic Communications Agreement, and our Privacy Policy; (ii) Smartphone or other devices that is capable of utilizing Yeel and has internet access through a wireless operator (an “Eligible Device”); (iii) have a version of operating software on your Eligible Device that supports the Services; (iv) provide information requested by Yeel from time to time. (v) must be a resident of Somalia. If your access to or use of the Services is prohibited by applicable law, you are not authorized to access or use the Services. We are not responsible if you access or use the Services in any manner that violates applicable law.
  • D. Limited to use with Eligible Devices via Yeel . The Services may only be used with Eligible Devices on the Yeel platform. Therefore, you must have Yeel enabled on an Eligible Device in order to access or use the Services, and your use of the Services is subject to the terms and conditions that Yeel may establish from time to time regarding the use of Yeel and other limitations of the Yeel platform. For example, you will only be able to use your Yeel PrePaid Account at locations that accept Yeel Mobile Payments.
  • E. Use of the Services Across Eligible Devices. Your Yeel Account will be associated with your Yeel UserID. Therefore, you may access your Yeel Account and use the Services with all of your Eligible Devices that are associated with your Yeel UserID and have Yeel enabled. You acknowledge that these Terms will govern the use of the Services across all of your Eligible Devices and that you will only be presented with these Terms at the time you initially create your Yeel Account.
  • F. Registering your Yeel PrePaid Account with Bank. As provided in Section 2 below, in order to use certain functions or features of the Services (including contacting Bank’s customer service to discuss your Yeel Account), we may require you to provide us with certain identifying information about you so that we can verify your identity. If we are able to verify your identity, your Yeel Account, including your PrePaid Account, will be registered to you. In addition to providing identifying information when requested by us, you may initiate this identify verification process and register your Yeel Account at any time directly from your Eligible Device. Please see the Section 2 below entitled “Required Personal Information” for more information.
  • G. Protect your Yeel Account Information, Credentials, and Eligible Devices like you Would Protect Cash. You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your Eligible Devices and your Yeel ID, your Touch ID and Face ID information, the passcode to your Eligible Device(s), and any other authentication credentials used in connection with the Services (collectively, your “Credentials”). If you authorize or allow anyone else to use your Yeel Account (e.g., by providing the passcode to your Eligible Device, allowing a third party to add their fingerprint to use Touch ID or enable Face ID, or otherwise providing any of your Credentials to a third party), the person may be able to make payments with your Yeel PrePaid Account and send your money through the Funds Transfer Service to another User or a bank account, and you will be responsible for all transactions on your Yeel Account made by that person.
  • H. Your Right to Suspend or Close your Yeel Account. You may suspend your Yeel Account from any Eligible Device you have provisioned it to at any time. If you suspend your Yeel Account from an Eligible Device, your Yeel Account will not be closed and any funds in your PrePaid Account will remain in your Yeel PrePaid Account, but your Yeel Account will cease to be active and available on that particular Eligible Device.
  • I. Yeel’s Right to Suspend or Terminate your Use of the Services. We reserve the right to limit, suspend, or terminate your use of the Services or take other account-level or transaction-level actions, including suspending or closing your Yeel Account, immediately and without prior notice to you for any reason, including, without limitation: (i) to protect the security and integrity of the Services, your Yeel Account or Prepaid Account, or other Users and their accounts; (ii) the inability to debit or collect funds from any account you designate in connection with the Services; (iii) if you breach these Terms or any other agreement with us regarding the Services, including, without limitation, by using the Services for any unlawful purposes; (iv) we have reason to believe there has been or may be an unauthorized use of your Yeel Account; (v) we are unable to verify your identity or authority to use the Services to our satisfaction; (vi) your Yeel Account is not in good standing; (vii) we believe that your use of the Services could expose us, Yeel, or other persons involved in providing the Services to increased risk or be placed in a false or derogatory light; (viii) your Yeel ID is suspended or terminated for any reason or ceases to be in good standing with Yeel; (ix) we have reason to believe that you are using the Services to facilitate, encourage, or promote illegal activity, hate, violence, intolerance, fraud, or otherwise objectionable content or activities; or (x) we believe your use of the Services does not comply with applicable law. Our election to exercise the foregoing right to suspend or terminate your access to and use of the Services is in addition to any other right or remedy that we may have under these Terms or otherwise. Our decisions may be based on confidential criteria that are essential to our operation of the Services, management of risk, and protection of Yeel and Users. We may use proprietary fraud and risk modeling when assessing the risk associated with your use of the Services. You understand and agree that such action is reasonable for us to take in order to protect us from loss and ensure the security of the Services. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to grant or deny reinstatement of your use of the Services.
  • J. Daryeel Bank’s Roles in Providing the Services. In providing the Services, Daryeel Bank is operating in various capacities: (i) as the person (the “Program Manager”) responsible for (a) providing PrePaid Accounts that receive and hold Users’ funds that are accessible by the Yeel Mobile Payment, (b) providing the Funds Transfer Service, and (c) selecting the parties that provide all other aspects of the Services; (ii) as the bank responsible for issuing the Yeel PrePaid Account (the “Issuer”); and (iii) as the depository institution where funds in your PrePaid Account are placed (the “Depository”). As Program Manager, Bank has the authority, on Users’ behalf, to determine which financial institution shall serve as the Issuer and to place Users’ funds into, and withdraw User funds from, the Depository. While Bank is initially serving as the Program Manager, Issuer, and Depository, we may assign any or all of these roles, in whole or in part, to one or more third parties without restriction and without your prior consent.
2. REQUIRED PERSONAL INFORMATION
  • The law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. Accordingly, when you register your Yeel Account, we will ask you for certain information, including, but not limited to, your name, street address, date of birth, your National Identification Card Number, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents or ask you security questions. If we are unable to verify your identity, we may: (i) close your Yeel Account; (ii) permit you to use your Yeel Account until the money in your PrePaid Account has been spent; or (iii) allow you to continue to use your Yeel Account, subject to the transaction limits for unregistered Yeel Accounts that are set forth in the subsection entitled “Transaction and Yeel Account Limits” in Section 5(B) below
3. THE Yeel PREPAID ACCOUNT
  • A. Generally. The Yeel PrePaid Account is a virtual PrePaid Account. Currently, the Yeel PrePaid Account is issued on the Daryeel Bank Network, but this is subject to change. You will not be issued a physical PrePaid Account. Rather, your Yeel PrePaid Account will be provisioned to your Eligible Devices that are associated with your Yeel ID and that you have enabled to access your Yeel Account. You may only use your Yeel PrePaid Account where Yeel Mobile Payments are accepted.
  • B. Adding Funds to your Yeel PrePaid Account. Funds can be added to your Yeel PrePaid Account in two ways: (i) by utilizing the Funds Transfer Service to add funds to your Yeel PrePaid Account with a Supported Somali Bank Account that is a debit or eligible prepaid Account; or (ii) by receiving a P2P Transfer from another User, which funds will be automatically credited to your Yeel PrePaid Account, unless you have disabled the ability to automatically receive P2P Transfers, in which case the funds will only be credited to your Yeel PrePaid Account if you accept the P2P Transfer within 7 days.
  • C. Transactions with your Yeel PrePaid Account; Receipts. Each time you use your Yeel PrePaid Account to purchase goods or services, you authorize us to debit the total amount of your purchase from your Yeel PrePaid Account balance. You must keep enough money on your Yeel PrePaid Account for each transaction We will generally decline a transaction if you have insufficient or unavailable funds on your Yeel PrePaid Account to cover the transaction at the time it is authorized. Nevertheless, if we authorize a transaction that exceeds the balance of available funds on your Yeel PrePaid Account, you are responsible for any amount that is charged in excess of your balance. If you have a negative balance on your Yeel PrePaid Account, we may deduct the negative balance amount from a P2P Transfer that you receive or from any other Yeel PrePaid Account you register with us. If you have a negative balance on your Yeel PrePaid Account, we may also require you to load funds onto your Yeel PrePaid Account with a Supported Somali Bank Account that is a debit or eligible PrePaid Account before you can perform additional transactions with your Yeel Account.
  • D. Foreign Transactions. Once you have registered your Yeel Account, you may use your Yeel PrePaid Account for transactions outside Somalia at eligible merchant locations that accept Yeel Mobile Payments
  • E. Returns. Because you will not be issued a physical PrePaid Account for your Yeel PrePaid Account, you may need to present the Eligible Device that you used for a purchase to a merchant when you return an item purchased with your Yeel PrePaid Account.
  • F. Holds for Preauthorized Transactions. When you use your Yeel PrePaid Account to pay for goods or services, certain merchants may ask us to preauthorize the transaction in advance and may estimate the final purchase amount. When we preauthorize the transaction, we will place a “hold” on your funds for the amount indicated by the merchant. We also may add an amount for certain merchants to ensure that sufficient funds will be available to cover the final transaction amount (such as to cover a tip at a restaurant). Transactions at certain merchants that preauthorize high dollar amounts, such as rental car companies and hotels, may cause a “hold” on your available balance for up to 90 days. You will not be able to use the money on your Yeel PrePaid Account that is “on hold.” We will release any remaining amount when the transaction finally settles or the hold period expires.
  • G. Assigned PIN. You will be required to select a personal identification number (“PIN”) for use in connection with your Yeel PrePaid Account
  • H. No Overdraft. Your Yeel PrePaid Account is not a credit PrePaid Account and does not provide overdraft or any line of credit.
4. FUNDS TRANSFER SERVICE
  • A. Generally. The Funds Transfer Service allows you to: (i) send P2P Transfers to other Users; (ii) load your Yeel PrePaid Account with a Supported Somali Bank Account that is a debit or eligible prepaid Account (as discussed in Section 3(B) above); and (iii) initiate Bank Transfers to move money from your Yeel PrePaid Account to your designated bank account.
  • B. P2P Transfers. The Funds Transfer Service allows you to transfer money to another User from several sources. The default funding source for P2P Transfers will be your Yeel PrePaid Account. However, if you do not maintain a sufficient balance on your Yeel PrePaid Account to send a P2P Transfer in the amount you have entered, we will use the balance you have on your Yeel PrePaid Account and then fund the remaining portion of your P2P Transfer with a Supported Somali Bank Account. If you do not have any balance on your Yeel PrePaid Account, your P2P Transfer will be funded entirely with a Supported Somali Bank Account that you select. The fees associated with using a Supported Somali Bank Account to fund a P2P Transfer (either in whole or in part) are set forth in Section 5. Please note that, in addition to our fees for using a Supported Somali Bank Account to fund a P2P Transfer that are set forth in Section 5, the issuer of your Supported Somali Bank Account may separately charge fees and interest if your P2P Transfer is funded (either in whole or in part) with your Supported Somali Bank Account and such funding transaction is treated by your PrePaid Account issuer as a cash advance or an overdraft. Other Users are not required to accept money you send them in a P2P Transfer. If a designated recipient is not a User or has disabled the ability to automatically receive P2P Transfers and does not accept the P2P Transfer within 7 days, or if the P2P Transfer cannot otherwise be completed for any other reason, the P2P Transfer will automatically be canceled and we will refund the amount of the transaction to your Yeel PrePaid Account or Supported Somali Bank Account (including any fees that may have been applied by us), as applicable.
  • C. Bank Transfers. You can also use the Funds Transfer Service to initiate Bank Transfers. In order to process a Bank Transfer, you must provide us with identifying information regarding your bank account that you would like to receive the money, including your bank account and routing numbers. We will use the Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) to transfer money from your Yeel PrePaid Account to your designated bank account. You agree that you will have sufficient available money on your Yeel PrePaid Account to cover the amount of any Bank Transfer that you request. If you do not, we may reject the Bank Transfer. We will remove the money that you have designated to be transferred from your Yeel PrePaid Account when you submit the Bank Transfer to us. We generally process Bank Transfers within 2 business days of your request. However, please note that the financial institution that holds your bank account may take additional time to deposit the funds in your bank account. The cutoff time for submitting a request for a Bank Transfer is 6:00 P.M., Somalia Time. Instructions for a Bank Transfer received after this cutoff time or on a non-business day may be processed by us on the next business day. Bank Transfers scheduled to be processed on a weekend or holiday will be processed on the next business day. ENTER AND REVIEW YOUR BANK ACCOUNT INFORMATION FOR BANK TRANSFERS CAREFULLY. You are solely responsible for ensuring that you have entered the correct routing and account numbers for your bank account and any other information we require for a Bank Transfer. If you enter this information incorrectly, your money may be lost. By instructing and authorizing us to process a Bank Transfer, you represent and warrant to us that: (i) the financial institution that holds the bank account you designate to receive money via the Bank Transfer expressly permits (or does not prohibit) Bank Transfers; (ii) you have the authority to instruct and authorize us to process the Bank Transfer; (iii) the information you provide to us regarding the bank account you designate to receive money via the Bank Transfer is accurate and complete; (iv) you are an owner and authorized signer on the bank account you designate to receive money via the Bank Transfer; (v) no other person’s authorization is required for us to process the Bank Transfer; and (vi) such action does not violate the terms and conditions applicable to your bank account, these Terms, or applicable law
  • D. Additional Terms and Conditions for Using the Funds Transfer Service. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as otherwise required by applicable law, transactions authorized in connection with the Funds Transfer Service are nonrefundable. We are not responsible for any loss of funds if you authorize and instruct us to send funds to the wrong User, account, or other designated recipient. Without limiting any other provisions of these Terms or our rights or remedies under applicable law, if you charge back or reverse a P2P Transfer funded with a Supported Somali Bank Account (either in whole or in part) with the issuer of such Supported Somali Bank Account, we may reduce the balance on your Yeel PrePaid Account by the amount charged back or reversed, even if such action would result in a negative balance. By instructing and authorizing us to send money via the Funds Transfer Service, you represent, warrant, and covenant that: (i) you are legally authorized to use the funding source that you have selected to perform the transaction; (ii) there are sufficient funds or credit available to complete the transaction using your funding source; and (iii) such action does not violate the terms and conditions applicable to your funding source, these Terms, or applicable law. Once you instruct and authorize us to send money via the Funds Transfer Service, we will charge or debit your selected funding source and, if the transaction is a P2P Transfer, notify the receiving User. Except as otherwise expressly provided in, and without limiting any other provisions of, these Terms, we will not be liable if we fail to send, or delay the transmission of, funds to a designated recipient or account through the Funds Transfer Service if: (i) you have insufficient funds available to complete the transaction with your Yeel PrePaid Account or Supported Somali Bank Account; (ii) the issuer of your Supported Somali Bank Account declines to process the transaction; (iii) the designated recipient or account does not accept the money through the Funds Transfer Service or is otherwise ineligible to receive the funds through the Funds Transfer Service; (iv) we believe the transaction may violate applicable law or these Terms; (v) we identify a security risk involving the transaction or the Funds Transfer Service; (vi) circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, terrorist attack, or national emergency) prevent the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken; or (vii) your Yeel PrePaid Account or an Eligible Device that you have provisioned your Yeel PrePaid Account to has been reported as lost or stolen or if we have reason to believe that your Credentials (as defined in Section 1(G) above) have been compromised or that the transaction is not authorized by you. We cannot guarantee the timely delivery or return of funds as a result of a failure of another financial institution or payment intermediary to act in a timely manner.

13. ARBITRATION NOTICE

THESE TERMS CONTAIN AN ARBITRATION PROVISION. PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY, AS IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

  • A. ACKNOWLEDGPREPAIDOF ARBITRATION. The Services are being made available and priced by Bank on the basis of your acceptance of the following arbitration provision. By accepting these Terms or otherwise accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you are giving up the right to litigate Claims (as defined below) if either party elects arbitration of the Claims pursuant to this Section, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, and you hereby knowingly and voluntarily waive the right to trial of all Claims subject to these Terms. You further acknowledge that you have read this arbitration provision carefully, agree to its terms, and are entering into these Terms voluntarily and not in reliance on any promises or representations whatsoever except those contained in these Terms.
  • B. Arbitration of Claims. Except as expressly provided herein, any claim, dispute, or controversy (whether based upon contract; tort, intentional or otherwise; constitution; statute; common law; or equity and whether pre-existing, present or future), including initial claims, counter-claims, cross-claims, and third-party claims, arising from or relating to: (i) the Services or any other service relating to your Yeel Account; (ii) the marketing of the Services; (iii) these Terms, including the validity, enforceability, interpretation, scope, or application of these Terms and this arbitration provision (except for the prohibition on class or other non-individual claims, which will be for a court to decide); and (iv) any other agreements to the Services (“Claim”) shall be decided, upon the election of you or Bank (or Bank’s agents, employees, successors, representatives, affiliated companies, or assigns), by binding arbitration.
  • C. Other Claims Subject to Arbitration. In addition to Claims brought by either you or Bank, Claims made by or against Bank by or against anyone connected with you or Bank or claiming through you or Bank (including an employee, agent, representative, affiliated company, predecessor or successor, heir, assignee, or trustee in bankruptcy) will be subject to arbitration as described herein.
  • D. Exceptions. We agree not to invoke our right to arbitrate any individual Claim you bring in small claims court or an equivalent court so long as the Claim is pending only in that court. This arbitration provision also does not limit or constrain Bank’s right to interplead funds in the event of claims to funds associated with your Yeel Account by several parties.
  • E. Individual Claims Only. Claims may be submitted to arbitration on an individual basis only. Claims subject to this arbitration provision may not be joined or consolidated in arbitration with any Claim of any other person or be arbitrated on a class basis, in a representative capacity on behalf of the general public, or on behalf of any other person, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing. However, related Yeel Accounts are considered as one person, and Yeel, its employees, officers, directors, agents, and affiliates are considered as one person.
14. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Services and/or revise these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion without prior notice or liability to you, subject to applicable law. If we are required to provide you notice of any changes to these Terms, we will do so in accordance with our Electronic Communications Agreement. Subject to applicable law, your continued use of the Services following such notice shall be deemed to be your acceptance of such modified version of these Terms. In certain instances, we may not give you advance notice if we need to make the change immediately in order to comply with applicable law or to maintain or restore the security of your Yeel Account or the Services. If any such change will not be temporary and disclosure to you of that change would not jeopardize the security of your Yeel Account or the Services, we will provide notice to you within 30 days after making the change or as otherwise required by applicable law. You are free to decide whether or not to accept a revised version of these Terms, but accepting these Terms, as revised, is required for your continued access to and use of the Services. If you do not agree to these Terms or any revised version of these Terms, your sole recourse is to cease accessing and using the Services. Except as otherwise expressly stated by us, your access to and use of the Services are subject to the version of these Terms in effect at the time of your access or use.
