1. Services and eligibility

1.1 We assist to effect the conversion of government-issued fiat into Bitcoin. Essentially, this means we facilitate the process of you buying Bitcoin using your regular currency. We will also purchase your Bitcoin if you wish to sell it.

1.2 In order to trade with us, you must first apply to set up an AmberApp account which you can do by downloading the App and following the on-screen prompts.

1.3 To be eligible to set up and maintain an account you must:

  • successfully verify your identity by submitting any relevant documentation that we may request from time to time. This may require you to present documentation in an online video conference interview with one of our representatives and you consent to any such interview being recorded for compliance and record keeping purposes. Where we use a third party service provider to assist in the verification process we will only share your information with our provider to the extent required to successfully verify your identity; and
  • provide any other information we may request from time to time in order for us to meet our regulatory and internal compliance requirements.

Additionally, you agree, at our discretion, that we may engage an appropriate third party provider to carry out such verifications on our behalf.

1.4 During the course of using our services you may send fiat currency to us or alternatively request that we send fiat currency to you. In these circumstances we reserve the right to verify that you own the bank account to which, or from which (as applicable), funds are to be sent. Accordingly, you authorise:

  • us to verify your account details with your financial institution;
  • your financial institution to release information to enable us to verify your account details

1.5 Any personal information we may collect from you when setting up your account or in the course of trading with you will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which can be accessed here or by visiting https://amber.app/privacy-policy/. We note that your personal information may be shared with third parties (including regulators) but only to the extent we are required to do so by law or in order to efficiently provide our services to you. If you fail to provide us with information that we request from you, we will not be able to provide our services to you.

1.6 You represent and warrant to us that you are solely responsible (and that we will not be liable) for any error with respect to the information or instructions you may provide to us when setting up your account or trading with us. It is particularly important you ensure that any Bitcoin wallet address details you provide to us are accurate and complete.

1.7 Once you complete the account opening process and provide the necessary documentation we will carry out our internal verification and then confirm whether your application has been successful and your account has been verified. Once your account has been verified you will be able to commence trading with us immediately.

1.8 We offer a dual layer authentication process, and recommend that you take advantage of this process when creating your account login details.

1.9 Please ensure you keep your account login details confidential. We do not accept any responsibility for what may happen if you share your account login details or allow someone else to access your account.

2. Trading Bitcoin is risky

2.1 You are aware that trading Bitcoin involves a degree of risk. Some (but by no means all) of the risks that are typically identified include:

  • that the value of Bitcoin is subject to fluctuations, which may result in a partial or total loss of any funds you elect to convert to Bitcoin;
    Bitcoin is not recognised as legal tender in Australia and there is currently no entity which controls or regulates Bitcoin;
  • Bitcoin is traded using specific networking including mesh networking, satellites, long wave radio broadcast, and internet connections in order to operate effectively and which may from time to time experience faults, which could have a direct impact on your ability to trade Bitcoin.

2.2 Every person has a different risk profile and we highly recommend that you obtain independent financial and taxation advice from appropriate trusted experts who will be in a position to consider your personal circumstances to guide you on the pros and cons of investing in Bitcoin and executing trades with us.

2.3 It is important to note that we do not purport to provide financial, taxation or any other sort of advice in connection with the services we provide or the risks associated with trading Bitcoin (including those noted in Section 2.1 above). We are not qualified to give such advice and any information provided by us through any medium, including our Portals, does not constitute advice or a recommendation in connection with trading Bitcoin.

2.4 By accepting these Terms you acknowledge the risks associated with trading Bitcoin and confirm that you have the opportunity to obtain appropriate independent financial and taxation advice before you commence trading with us.

3. How to buy bitcoin

3.1 Once your account has been verified and established you will be able to trade with us. You can deposit funds into your account and then use your credits to purchase Bitcoin. The following are ways in which you may be able to purchase Bitcoin using our services:

  • your account may be credited by making an online payment, or via credit / debit card; or
  • you can buy Bitcoin using our Automations facility using credits in your account subject to any deposit limits that we may impose from time to time (refer to Section 14).

3.2 The following Sections describe in further detail how you may credit your account and buy Bitcoin using either of the above methods.

4. Credit your account by making an online payment

4.1 You can make a deposit into your account using one of our designated online payment options by clicking on the relevant online payment icon in the App and following the on-screen prompts.

4.2 If you elect to use an online payment method, then once your funds have been processed, we will immediately credit your account after deducting any applicable fees.

4.3 Please note that we may elect not to accept an online payment if it is made by a third party (i.e. a person that is not you). Our compliance team will undertake checks to determine the source of funds.

4.4 Any funds that are not accepted by us will be returned to the originating account. This may also result in the closure of your account. Any bank transfer fees incurred will be charged from the originating account.

4.5 You agree and represent that you will not initiate any chargebacks, and / or deny or attempt to reverse any payment or deposits that you have made to us. You indemnify us for any costs we may incur in the event you take any such actions.

4.6 For card payments, you acknowledge that we shall not be liable for unauthorised use by any third party of your credit/debit cards, irrespective of whether or not the credit/debit cards were reported stolen.

5. How to buy Bitcoin using existing credits

5.1 If you have deposited funds into your account you may elect to buy Bitcoin from us, subject to any transaction limits we may impose from time to time (refer to Section 14), by clicking the “Buy” icon in our App and following the on-screen prompts.

5.2 We will offer you the rate (referred to as the “exchange rate”) at which we agree to exchange your designated credits for Bitcoin. Given that the value of Bitcoin is subject to rapid fluctuations, we may update the exchange rate prior to your confirmation of purchase.

5.3 Before executing a trade we may require you to answer some questions relevant to your account and your use of our App. We ask these questions to ensure that we continue to comply with our regulatory obligations. Failure to provide adequate responses to any questions we may ask may result in your account being placed on a temporary compliance hold until such time the adequate responses have been provided.

5.4 If you wish to execute a trade at the nominated exchange rate you may do so by following the on-screen prompts. You may not cancel a trade once you have confirmed that you wish to proceed.

5.5 Once you have confirmed to execute a trade we will credit your account with Bitcoin (calculated by reference to the agreed exchange rate) and debit the corresponding credits from your account.

5.6 We may, in our sole discretion, decline to process a trade, including in circumstances where you fail to answer any questions (or fail to provide adequate responses) that we submit to you as part of the purchase process.

6. Automations

6.1 Wherein Automations are available, this function enables you to trade Bitcoin without going through the process of crediting your account and manually executing the trade.

6.2 An Automations trade (or series of trades) may be funded from your account credits (balance); via payments from your nominated bank account; or credit / debit card, subject to any transaction limits we may impose from time to time (refer to Section 14).

6.3 If an Automations order specifies that a trade is to be effected on a particular day in the future then the trade will be effected at 12am UTC on that day.

6.4 To effect an Automations trade, you will need to create an Automations order by selecting the “Automations” icon in the App and following the on-screen prompts. Effecting an Automations order can provide for a one-off trade of Bitcoin or for a series of trades to be effected at designated intervals.

6.5 Once an Automations order has been created your account will automatically be debited at the designated intervals for the trade amounts specified in your order. At the time your account is debited it is instantly credited with Bitcoin or fiat depending on your order. The amount of Bitcoin or fiat credited will be calculated by reference to the exchange rate at the time each trade is effected (having regard to Section 6.3).

6.6 Your Automations order will be canceled if there is insufficient credit in your account to complete a trade at the time the trade is scheduled to occur.

6.7 You may cancel an Automations order that is being funded from your account balance at any time before the order has been processed by selecting the “account balance” option contained within the Automations icon in the App, selecting the cancel option and following the on-screen prompts.

6.8 Your Automations order will be canceled (and your account will not be credited) if there are insufficient funds in your nominated bank account to settle the direct debit. You will be responsible for any default fees that may be levied by your bank in these circumstances.

6.9 You may cancel an Automations order that uses direct debit as a funding method at any time before the order has been processed by selecting the “account balance” option contained within the Automations icon in the App, selecting the cancel option and following the on-screen prompts.

7. Cooling off period prior to withdrawing/selling Bitcoin

7.1 Where Bitcoin is purchased from funds deposited into your account using an electronic payment facility we may place a restriction on your ability to withdraw or sell that Bitcoin during what we refer to as the ‘cooling off period’. The reason we impose a cooling off period is to protect you and us against fraudulent transactions.

7.2 The length of the cooling off period will differ depending on the type of payment facility used and to the extent possible you will be notified prior to any deposit being processed.

7.3 You may not withdraw or sell Bitcoin that is subject to any applicable cooling off period.

8. Depositing Bitcoin to your account

8.1 You may transfer Bitcoin to us from your own wallet by selecting the “Receive” button in the “Bitcoin Wallet” section within the App and following the prompts. Subject to Section 8.3, any Bitcoin that is transferred to us will be credited to your account.

8.2 In the event that you transfer Bitcoin to any different wallet address other than that specified in the transfer instruction presented to you from us we shall have no liability whatsoever. Additionally, we will have no obligation to replace or to assist in tracking or recovering the Bitcoin in the event of an erroneous transfer.

8.3 Before crediting your account with any Bitcoin you may transfer to us, we reserve the right to review historical transactions recorded on the blockchain to determine if the Bitcoin may be associated with any illicit activity. If we determine (in our absolute discretion) that the Bitcoin may be associated with illicit activity we will not credit your account and may or may not return the Bitcoin (less any network delivery fees) to the wallet from which it was received.

8.4 Once Bitcoin has been credited to your account you will be able to sell it to us in accordance with the procedure described in Section 10.

9. Withdrawing your Bitcoin

9.1 You may withdraw Bitcoin credited to your account by submitting a withdrawal request. This can be done by clicking on the “Send” icon within the “Bitcoin Wallet” section within the App and following the prompts to nominate the amount of Bitcoin you wish to withdraw.

9.3 Once you have nominated and confirmed the amount of Bitcoin you wish to withdraw you will be asked to choose one of the designated delivery networks, i.e., “on chain” or “Lightning”. Network delivery fees will apply and will be calculated based on the delivery network you choose. The applicable fee will be confirmed prior to processing your withdrawal request and will be deducted from the Bitcoin credited to your account. Please note that we automatically apply a 24 hour delay for withdrawal requests initiated by any new account.

9.4 You must nominate the Bitcoin wallet address that is to receive your Bitcoin, and it is your responsibility to ensure that your nominated wallet supports your selected delivery method. When nominating a wallet you must also ensure that you comply with all obligations placed on you under these Terms, including but not limited to those obligations detailed in Section 17.

9.5 Once you have selected a delivery method you may be prompted to provide additional information to enable us to process your withdrawal. Any information which we may request from you is to allow us to effect your withdrawal.

9.6 You may not cancel a withdrawal request once you have confirmed that you wish to proceed.

9.7 You acknowledge and agree that the delivery of Bitcoin may be impacted by forces outside of our control, including circumstances where your nominated Bitcoin wallet is on a third party exchange which means once we have initiated a transfer of Bitcoin to your nominated Bitcoin wallet we have no control over the processing and timing of the transfer.

9.8 In the event that you make an error when specifying your Bitcoin wallet address for withdrawal we will have no liability whatsoever or obligation to replace the Bitcoin or to assist in tracking or recovering the Bitcoin in the event of such an erroneous transfer initiated by you.

Withdrawal incentives

9.9 We may from time to time offer incentives to you for the use of different delivery networks (Incentives). Any Incentives are subject to limitations posted on our Portals from time to time.

10. Selling Bitcoin

10.1 You may sell all or some of the Bitcoin that is credited to your account to us subject to any transaction limits that we may impose from time to time (refer to Section 14) and subject to completing any applicable cooling off period (refer to Section 7). You may do this by clicking on the “Sell” icon on the App and following the on-screen prompts.

10.2 We will offer you the rate (referred to as the “exchange rate”) at which we agree to exchange your designated amount of Bitcoin for fiat currency and advise you of our commission. Given that the value of Bitcoin is subject to fluctuations, we may update the exchange rate at any time prior to you accepting it.

10.3 You may accept the exchange rate and confirm that you wish to sell the designated amount of Bitcoin by following the on-screen prompts and initiating a transfer.

10.4 You may not cancel a sale once you have confirmed that you wish to proceed.

10.5 Following completion of any sale we will credit your account with funds equal to the net proceeds of the sale.

11. Withdrawing fiat

11.1 At any time you may elect to withdraw fiat currency that is credited to your account subject to any transaction limits that we may impose from time to time (refer to Section 13 for further information about account limits). You may do this by clicking on the “Withdraw” icon within the “Fiat Wallet” section of the App and following the on-screen prompts.

11.2 When we initiate a transfer of the specified amount of fiat currency to your nominated bank account, you will be responsible for any bank transfer fees. Please allow between 1-4 business days for a transfer to settle, noting that some transactions may take longer due to the opening hours and settlement processes of individual banks.

12. Bitcoin storage services

12.1 You acknowledge we charge fees periodically to store your Bitcoin (refer to Section 13). However, you may opt to transfer your Bitcoin balance to your AmberVault, which offers additional account security and a different storage fee model, or alternatively transfer your Bitcoin into your own self-custodial wallet.

AmberVault

12.2 Use of the AmberVault is wholly at the customer’s discretion.

12.3 To transfer a portion, or all of your Bitcoin balance to your AmberVault, tap the ‘Deposit’ button within the ‘Vault’ section of the App, nominate the Bitcoin amount you would like to deposit and confirm your balance transfer. AmberVault deposits are instant and free of charge.

12.4 For additional AmberVault security, you may elect to generate a secure passphrase to enable a dual-layer authorisation when withdrawing your Bitcoin. We cannot access your passphrase, and only store a hash of your passphrase. That is, we can determine if you have correctly entered your passphrase, but do not know what your passphrase is, ever. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your passphrase. We will not accept any responsibility for what may happen if you share your passphrase or allow someone else to access your account.

12.5 At any time you may reset your passphrase. To do so, contact our customer service team via email at [email protected], or directly through the App. We will only reset your passphrase once we have (in our sole discretion) verified your identity again.
