To use the Baanx Platform, You must register and become a fully verified User and set up an Account through the Baanx App.
To register for an Account, You must provide Your full name, email address, and create a password, as well as accept the Terms of Use, Privacy Policy and Consent Form.
Baanx may, in its sole discretion, refuse to open an Account for You.
You agree to provide complete and accurate information when opening an Account and agree to update any information You provide to Baanx, so that such information is complete and accurate at all times.
Each registration is for a single User only and each User may only maintain one Account with Baanx.
Subject to these terms, Your Account will give you access to Wallets showing a balance of Cryptocurrency you have deposited on the Platform earning a return equivalent to interest at a minimum of 1% per annum, payable yearly unless in a high yield account whereupon interest is paid weekly, and available to be restored to you on request in a corresponding Fiat or Cryptocurrency value.
You are aware that Fiat Currency value representing Assets that You place or deposit on the Platform in a Wallet (and is not within the E-money Safeguarded Account within the Platform) is not e-money and therefore not safeguarded or protected under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme or the Financial Ombudsman Service in the UK. Consequently, Your funds could be at risk if something were to change or happen to any one of Us.
If You do not convert Fiat Currency held on the Platform into Cryptocurrency within 30 days of transfer to the Platform, We reserve the right either move the funds to the E-money Safeguarded Account available to You within the Platform, to return the Fiat Currency back to Your designated bank account, or, if no bank account is linked, to convert such funds to an equivalent amount of EURT stable coin shown in a Wallet accessible through your Account subject to these terms. We will notify You by email before We undertake this conversion. For the avoidance of doubt, no interest is payable on any Fiat Currency held on the Platform.
We may partner with other third-party service providers to facilitate different methods of providing Services to You, including Account funding, and therefore You agree that You have read, understand, and accept all relevant terms and conditions that apply.
If We suspect or form any suspicion that Your use of any of Services involves illicit activity of any kind, We reserve the right to suspend and / or terminate Your Account which may include refusing to process inbound or outbound transactions.
Wallets on the Baanx Platform belong to Us as do any Assets they hold. When you are provided access to a Wallet through your Account, the amounts of Cryptocurrency visible to You are those in respect of which you can request Restoration.
When You deposit any amount of Cryptocurrency into a Wallet, You authorise Us to charge the full amount to the chosen funding method and You also authorise Us to collect and store that method and other related transaction information.
We will attempt to reflect and credit the Fiat Currency value You have sent to a Wallet(s) via Your funding method as quickly as possible, normally within 1 business day but this can take up to three (3) business days.
You are responsible for ensuring that You have deposited sufficient Assets in the relevant Wallet(s) at all times for us to provide Services under these terms, and We reserve the right to refuse to process a transaction if insufficient Assets are available for Restoration at the relevant time.
You may deposit Cryptocurrency to Wallet(s) accessible through Your Account and earn a return according to the applicable Wallet Rate, which shall be equivalent to a minimum annualised interest of 1%, payable yearly. In certain circumstances We may agree with You to open a high yield account where the Wallet Rate will be equivalent to a higher annualised interest rate, payable weekly.
The Wallet Rate on any amount of Cryptocurrency shown in Your Wallet will be calculated on the basis of the number of full days between initial deposit and Restoration of that amount. We reserve the right to vary the Wallet Rate at any time. The Wallet Rate due to You will be automatically added to the amount shown in Your Wallet on an annual, or, if You have a high yield account, weekly, basis.
By depositing an amount of Cryptocurrency into a Wallet possession and ownership of that Cryptocurrency passes to Us and You shall have no proprietary title in it. You have a continuing right to request the Restoration of any amount of Cryptocurrency shown in the Wallet in accordance with, and subject to any deductions made pursuant to, these terms.
By depositing Cryptocurrency in a Wallet, You acknowledge that there shall be no custody relationship between You and Us in respect of the Cryptocurrency deposited. You also acknowledge that in the event that any of Us becomes insolvent and / or enters liquidation, You may not be able to have the full value of Your deposits restored to You, and other than Your rights as a creditor of the relevant entity under any applicable laws, You may not have any legal remedies or rights in connection with Our obligations to You.
You may at any time request the Restoration of the equivalent value of any amount of Cryptocurrency in a Wallet accessible through Your Account, up to the entire amount of any Cryptocurrency or Cryptocurrencies shown. Restoration requests are made on the App. In relation to any Restoration request, You may choose for the Restoration to be effected by means of, either, payment to a wallet held with a third party in the Cryptocurrency initially deposited (You will need to provide Us with details in advance), or credit to a CL Card.
For the avoidance of doubt, if You request Restoration by means of payment in the Cryptocurrency initially deposited to a wallet held by a third party, We will pay in the same type of Cryptocurrency deposited by You, but not the actual same Cryptocurrency originally deposited by You. In the event that the details of the third party wallet provided by You when making the Restoration request are inaccurate, incomplete or misleading, the amount of Cryptocurrency concerned may be permanently lost. We will not be liable for any loss that results from inaccurate, incomplete or misleading details that You may provide for such Restoration. If the third party wallet You specify for Restoration is one to which We are unable to process transfers, We will have no liability for any resulting failure or delay in processing Your requested Restoration.
Whenever possible, we will initiate the Restoration process immediately following receipt of a Restoration request; however, we may require a longer period from Your Restoration request to effect it. The Wallet Rate will cease to be calculated from the date on which the Restoration is effected, at which point the corresponding amount of Cryptocurrency will be deducted from the amount shown in the relevant Wallet. If the Restoration request concerns the entire amount of any Cryptocurrency deposited in a Wallet, the Restoration will include any Wallet Rate due up to the date of the Restoration.
Where You load your CL Card with a monetary value, You are requesting Us to restore and convert a corresponding amount of Cryptocurrency previously deposited by You into a Wallet and credit Your CL card in settlement of this. The CL Card service is offered ,and subject to terms established, by Contis Financial Services Ltd (“Solaris”), UAB „Finansinės paslaugos„Contis or the Baanx Group Ltd acting on behalf of Solaris Group.
Please refer to the separate CL Card T&Cs for further details.
