KEEPING YOUR PAYMENT ACCOUNT SECURE
- You must not give your Security Details to other people or allow others to access your Payment Account.

- notify us immediately if access to the device registered for one time password (OTP) has been compromised or the device is no longer in your possession;

- ensure that you are using the latest version of the software for the device you use to access your Payment Account and Pro and keep the device itself secure; and
- ensure that you are always using the latest version of Pro.
- We will never ask you to make payments from your Payment Account to any other bank account. During the onboarding process, a member of the Payment Operations Team will ask you to share your OTP with them once in order to verify your identity. Following completion of onboarding, we will not ask you to share your OTP with us again. If anyone, including anyone purporting to be a Motorway representative, asks you to make a payment from your Payment account or share your OTP, you should contact your Account Manager immediately.
- To meet our legal and regulatory obligations, we might sometimes need to ask for more information about you and / or your use of your Payment Account. For example, because your normal spending pattern has changed. You must provide this information promptly to avoid any issues or delays with our service.
- We take instances of fraud and criminality on our platform seriously. Your Payment Account may be suspended or terminated should we suspect any instance of fraud (including but not limited to allowing others to use your Payment Account), money laundering, or concealing proceeds of crime.
OUR LIABILITY
- Except as provided in section 6.4 (below), Motorway shall not be liable to you for any indirect or consequential loss or damage (including without limitation loss of business, profits or revenues), incurred in connection with this Agreement, whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise.
- We will not be liable for any loss arising from:
- inability to access your Payment Account on your device or by other means. Access to your Payment Account will be on an "as available" and "as is" basis;
- where you acted:
- in an unauthorised or fraudulent manner;
- in such a way as to materially breach this Agreement; or
- negligently,
- or on the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event.
- Motorway’s liability in relation to the Transaction and purchase of the vehicle and use of Pro are as provided in the Pro Terms, as may be amended from time to time.
- Where sums are incorrectly deducted from your Available Funds and in all other circumstances, involving non-execution, defective or late execution of a Transaction, Motorway’s liability shall be limited to payment to you of misdirected funds together with any charges incurred.
- In relation to unauthorised Transactions that were caused by an act or omission on the part of Motorway, Motorway’s liability shall not exceed to payment to you of the total amounts that have been lost, stolen or misused, together with any charges incurred.
YOUR LIABILITY FOR TRANSACTIONS
- You will compensate Motorway in full (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries and employees) for any losses or costs, including reasonable legal fees, we incur arising out of any breach by you of this Agreement, your improper use of our service or your breach of any law or the rights of a third party.
- If you believe that a Transaction has been incorrectly executed or was not authorised by you, you must inform us immediately via your Account Manager. Failure to notify us immediately on becoming aware of an unauthorised or incorrectly executed Transaction could result in you losing your entitlement to have the matter corrected.
- You will be liable for all unauthorised Transactions that arise from the use of Security Details by a third party and if you fail to keep the Security Details of the Payment Account safe.
- Where we establish that a Transaction was not authorised by you and you have otherwise taken all reasonable steps to maintain the security of the Account and integrity of the Security Details and you have notified us in a timely manner, we shall refund to you the full amount debited without authorisation.
- You will be liable for all losses incurred in respect of a Transaction made by us which was not authorised by you, if you have acted fraudulently, or have intentionally or negligently failed to comply with the obligations set out under section 5 (Keeping Your Payment Account Secure).
- You agree to comply with, and not cause a third party to violate, all applicable laws, regulations, rules and terms and conditions in connection with the use of your Payment Account.
- You understand that Modulr has its own terms and conditions relating to the use of your Payment Account. Failure to abide by Modulr’s terms and conditions may result in termination of your Payment Account or other actions taken by Modulr, and you agree that Motorway has no control over, or responsibility or liability for, such actions.
YOUR WITHDRAWAL OF FUNDS
- You may request a withdrawal of your Available Funds, whether in full or in part, by either:
- following the withdrawal procedure within your Motorway Pay wallet by selecting “Withdraw funds”; or
- contacting your Account Manager, indicating the amount to be withdrawn.
- Within 2 hours from receipt of a request made directly via your wallet in accordance with Clause 8.1.1, or within 1-2 working days of receipt of a request in accordance with Clause 8.1.2., we will aim to return your Available Funds (in full or in part, as appropriate) to the bank account designated during onboarding (subject to Clause 8.3), to the extent that we are legally or practically able to do so. In the case of withdrawals made in accordance with Clause 8.1.1., we are reliant on the faster payments network and therefore whilst withdrawals are likely to be instantaneous, we cannot guarantee that withdrawals will be completed within 2 hours. Before we do so, we may need to verify your identity (for example, by OTP where a withdrawal is requested in accordance with Clause 8.1.1.) in order to satisfy applicable law and we reserve the right to withhold funds until we have been able to do so and/or if we have a reasonable concern regarding fraud or other security issues.
- If the bank account designated by you during onboarding is no longer correct, you can update your details by contacting your Account Manager, who may ask you to provide further information to verify this request.
- You may request a withdrawal of your Available Funds, whether in full or in part, by either:
CHANGES TO THIS AGREEMENT
- We may update or amend this Agreement from time to time. We will give you reasonable prior written notice of any material change unless the change is required due to a change in relevant legislation or regulation and we are prevented from doing so. You will be taken to have accepted any notified change to this Agreement unless you notify us that you do not agree prior to the change(s) taking effect. We’d be sad to see you go, but if you do not wish to agree to such changes to the Agreement, you can stop using Motorway Pay and close your Motorway Pay Account.
- The most up-to-date version of this Agreement will always be available on Pro.
- If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed deleted, but that shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of this Agreement.
YOUR DETAILS
- You agree that we may contact you by telephone, mobile, SMS or email at the contact details you provide us.
- You undertake to let us know as soon as possible of any changes to your name, address, telephone number, mobile number or e-mail address. You can do this by contacting your Account Manager in the first instance. We may request proof of any changes to your details. We will not be liable to you if you have changed your contact details and you have not told us.
- If we contact you in relation to your Payment Account, we will use the most recent contact details you have provided to us. Any email or SMS to you will be treated as being received as soon as it is sent by us using the details you have most recently provided.
- If you do not tell us promptly about any change to your contact details, the security of your information may be at risk and you may not receive important information from us, including notices about changes to this Agreement.
- If you do not provide us with a valid mobile number, this may restrict your ability to use our payment system. This is because we require you to take additional security steps to confirm your identity before your payment is accepted. For example, you may be asked to enter a one-time passcode which may be sent to your mobile phone.
DATA PROTECTION
All Personal Data collected by us or our service providers and passed to us in relation to this Agreement will be handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy and in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.
