8.How is your Account balance protected?
When money is received from you for the services, Sureswipe E.M.I PLC will issue the equivalent value of e-money and place it in your e-wallet. The equivalent money received from you are deposited into a pooled safeguarding client account with a bank in the European Union, separated from the EMIs own money. This means that, in case of insolvency, your e-money will not be used against payment of the company’s liabilities. Your money is safe and protected in accordance with the Electronic Money Regulations which are designed to ensure the safety of funds held in electronic money accounts like your ArenaPay Account. Unlike banks, there is no lending out customer money and your account has no interest bearing. Instead of protecting your money in a deposit guarantee scheme which does not apply to our services, your money is safeguarded by Sureswipe E.M.I.
Safeguarding means that, by law, your money is kept in accounts that are completely separate from corporate accounts that are used for running a business. These funds are called ‘safeguarded funds’. This means that, in case of insolvency, your e-money will not be used against payment of EMI’s liabilities. It should be noted that segregated account(s) will be established, maintained, and operated according to the applicable rules and regulations. The banking institution(s) will receive instructions regarding the transfer and the movement (s) of the money.
You can view your ArenaPay Account statement by logging into your Account. All your transactions will appear in the transaction history section of your ArenaPay e-wallet. You can access the transaction history when you log in to your Account and select the transaction tab/button.

- Harass and/or threaten our employees, agents, or other users.
In case you use the Services for the above restricted services and/or in a manner that results in complaints, disputes, claims, reversals, fines, penalties and other liability to us, the EMI, another User or a Third Party, you may be liable for the above restricted activities and their outcome. In such case, you agree to reimburse us, the EMI, another User or a Third Party for any and all such liability, and for us to settle any amounts owed as a result of the liability from your available balance. Should your balance be insufficient to cover the amount, you agree that the EMI may use any amount proceeds from a transaction, and in the event that such amount does not cover the liability, allow the holder of the claim to recover the amount through other legal means available.
In case of disputed amounts resulting from a claim or reversal, we will block the use of enough funds in your Account to cover the full amount of the dispute. The block will not affect the use of your Account if you have a residual balance in excess of the blocked disputed amount. The block is restricted to the disputed balance amount. Should the dispute be resolved on your favor, we will restore the full access to your Account and remove the block from the formerly disputed amount. To the contrary, if the dispute is resolved in favor of the opposing party, the blocked amount will remove the required amount from your Account in settlement of the dispute resolution decision.
