The PSP is not a bank, money transmitter, or MSB, but rather a payment service provider that works with licensed financial institutions to facilitate payments. Through this partnership, We offer digital wallet functionality without directly handling or transmitting the funds ourselves.

When the PSP acts as Your agent in collecting payments and funds from payors, We will inform You when funds have been collected and You agree to credit the payors' accounts at the time We provide such confirmation.

You agree that the payor's obligation to the recipient is treated as paid after processing has been initiated and the transaction enters "Completed" status.
