4. Description of the Service.
4.1 You may use the Application only to send a Remittance to a Beneficiary located in a country where Yogupay provides payment service, as designated on the Application from time to time. Yogupay and Yogupay-designated service providers will process the Remittance and make funds available for receipt by the Beneficiary as described below.
4.2 Your use of the Application or the Service does not constitute or create a fiduciary or escrow capacity between you and Yogupay. Yogupay provides a remittance service only; the funds that you direct Yogupay to pay to your Beneficiary are not held by Yogupay as a deposit or in escrow, and Yogupay is not holding or processing your Remittance as a fiduciary. Yogupay's only obligation is to pay your Remittance to your Beneficiary or to return the principal amount of the Remittance to you.
4.3 The Service is generally available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, although there may be times when the Service is unavailable to you or to your Beneficiary. Periods of unavailability may be caused by Yogupay's own acts (such as temporary periods when the Service is taken off-line to make upgrades or improvements), or by events beyond Yogupay's control, such as power outages, telecommunications failures, war or civil unrest, natural disasters or other acts of God. Yogupay may, from time to time, set limits on the value of Remittances you may send (both individually and over a period of time), as well as the value of Remittances any Beneficiary may receive. Yogupay may delay payment of your Remittance to allow Yogupay to determine that your Remittance complies with applicable law, regulation or Yogupay policies. Yogupay has the right, without notice to you, to refuse to accept or pay any Remittance that Yogupay determines in our sole discretion may violate applicable law, regulation or our policies, including laws, regulations and policies intended to help detect and prevent money-laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, and other abuses of financial services; if we accept a Remittance and then determine that it may violate any such law, regulation or policy, we may hold the Remittance until such time that the matter is resolved.
4.4 You must only use the Service to send a Remittance to people that you know personally, and not to pay for goods or services from third parties you do not know and trust. If you choose to pay third parties for goods and services using the Service, please note that Yogupay has no control over, and is not responsible for, the quality, safety, legality, or delivery of such third party goods or services, and that any such use of the Service is entirely at your own risk.
5. Authority to Charge Payment Account; Fees and Expenses.
5.1 In order to use the Service, you must use the Application to direct Yogupay to withdraw the principal value of the Remittance from your Payment Account, plus any applicable fees and charges; by requesting a Remittance, you authorise Yogupay to charge your Payment Account for the principal amount of the requested Remittance and applicable fees and charges, if any. You acknowledge that Yogupay has no obligation to process or complete a requested Remittance if Yogupay is unable for any reason to obtain authorization or settlement of the funds from your Payment Account for the principal amount of the requested Remittance and all applicable fees and charges.
5.2 Yogupay will disclose its fees and charges for providing the Service to you before you initiate a Remittance. Yogupay's fees and charges may change from time to time and may depend, among other factors, on the principal amount of your Remittance, your type of Payment Account, your location, and the location of your Beneficiary. In addition to the fees and charges, Yogupay will also show you the foreign exchange rate (that is, the rate at which your funds will be converted into the currency to be paid to your Beneficiary) applicable to your Remittance before you send it. Yogupay's foreign exchange rates change from time to time. In addition to the fees and charges you pay when sending a Remittance, Yogupay makes money when we convert the currency you send into the currency we pay to your Beneficiary.
5.3 If the charge to your Payment Account is returned, charged back or canceled for any reason after Yogupay has processed your Remittance request, you will be responsible to Yogupay for the principal amount of the Remittance and all associated fees and charges. You agree to pay such amounts, plus any applicable additional service fee and/or a non-sufficient funds (NSF) fee of USD 20 as a result of the return to Yogupay immediately upon demand. You authorise us to debit your Payment Account for the amount of any of the foregoing amounts.
You may be subject to fees (including a cash advance fee) under your agreement with the bank or other financial institution that issues your debit card when you use such a card for a Remittance. You should review your card agreement regarding such potential fees.
5.4 Although Yogupay will pay the full principal amount of your Remittance to your Beneficiary in the currency Yogupay specifies to you when you initiate your Remittance, your Beneficiary may incur costs, fees or charges from their bank, mobile phone company, E-Wallet issuer or other parties to maintain or withdraw the funds. Furthermore, your Beneficiary's ability to use or withdraw the funds you send may be limited by the terms of your Beneficiary's E-Wallet issuer.
6. Reliance by Yogupay.
Use care when inputting information about your Beneficiary; spell your Beneficiary’s name correctly and provide it in full, and verify that you have provided us with the Beneficiary’s correct phone number. You represent and warrant to us that all information you enter into the application or otherwise provide to Yogupay is true and complete, including information about you, your Payment Account, and your Beneficiary. When processing a Remittance Payment, Yogupay may rely on the registration information and Remittance information that you provide, including information about your Beneficiary. You acknowledge that any errors in the information you provide, including misidentification of Beneficiary(s), incorrect or inconsistent account names and numbers, or misspellings, are your responsibility.
7. Execution of a Remittance.
The Yogupay Remittance Facility Application is generally available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. In most cases, your Beneficiary is paid without delay through the Yogupay mobile application; accordingly, once you originate a Remittance, you may be unable to stop or to change it.While most transactions are paid or made available to your Beneficiary within minutes, if Yogupay becomes aware that delivery to your Beneficiary is delayed, Yogupay will contact you as soon as practicable and keep you informed about the delay.
8. Payment of Funds to Beneficiary
8.1 Yogupay and/or Yogupay designated service providers will arrange for the payment of the Remittance to your Beneficiary. Yogupay reserves the right to select the form of payment to the Beneficiary. Yogupay and/or Yogupay designated service providers will use reasonable efforts to provide payment in a form requested, but the Yogupay Application is not obligated to provide payment options for a specific Payment. Depending on the situation and the availability of various payment options, payment may be made by means of a credit to a mobile wallet, credit to a bank account or credit card account or by some other payment instrument. Not all payment methods are available in all countries, and Yogupay reserves the right to change payment method options. If a Beneficiary cannot be located and identified, the Remittance Payment funds may be returned to you either by a credit to your Payment Account or at Yogupay's option.
8.2 Yogupay reserves the right to establish identification and verification requirements for a Beneficiary to receive a Remittance. Yogupay may rely, without further investigation, upon identification information or documentation provided by you or a Beneficiary, including any code or identifier number of the Remittance, when paying the Beneficiary. Yogupay has the right to decline to pay the Beneficiary if Yogupay cannot verify the identity of the Beneficiary or if Yogupay believes that you or your Beneficiary may be in violation of this Agreement or any applicable law, regulation or Yogupay policy. Although Yogupay has the right to establish identification and verification requirements, and the Beneficiary's failure to comply with them is a basis for declining payment of the Remittance, Yogupay has no obligation to establish any such requirements.
9. Foreign Exchange
9.1 Payments to Beneficiaries are generally made in the currency of the Beneficiary's country. If permitted by applicable law and the Application, you may request your Remittance to be paid in another currency approved and made available by Yogupay from time to time.
9.2 If a currency conversion is required, Yogupay and/or Yogupay-designated service providers will convert the currency in which you initiate your Remittance into the local currency at the Yogupay exchange rate for your Remittance in effect at the time you initiate your Remittance. Yogupay will disclose the exchange rate to you before you authorise the Remittance. Yogupay's exchange rates vary from time to time, and may also differ depending on the principal value of your Remittance and other factors. In addition to the fees and charges applicable to your Remittance, Yogupay makes money when your currency is converted into the currency in which your Remittance is paid.
10. Permissible Remittance Payments.
The Application is not intended for use by any person in any jurisdiction or country where such use would be contrary to law or regulation. Specifically and without limitation, you may not use the Service for any Remittance;
- induced by or involving the proceeds of crime, fraud or other improper activity;
- exceeding Yogupay's transaction limits (whether in amount, frequency or otherwise);
- sent for the purpose of gambling, including placing bets or paying winnings;
- intended to be used as an escrow or similar capacity for delayed payment;
- which Yogupay determines is suspicious or may violate applicable law or regulation, including laws intended to detect and prevent money- laundering, terrorist financing, human trafficking, fraud, or to enforce currency or exchange rate controls.
You agree that you will only request a Remittance that complies with this Agreement, applicable origination country laws and applicable laws in the country of the Beneficiary. You may only use the Application to send Remittances on your own behalf. You may not resell the Application or use the Application to make Remittances on behalf of, or as an agent for, another person. You will provide information and/or documentation that Yogupay may request from time to time in order for Yogupay to comply with any applicable laws, including anti-money laundering laws. Yogupay may refuse payment of any Remittance which Yogupay determines in its sole discretion does not comply with applicable law, Yogupay policy or the terms of this Agreement.
11. Rejection of Remittance Payment Request.
11.1 Yogupay has the right to reject your request for a Remittance, or to decline to complete a request for a Remittance, or to impose a value or frequency limitation on your use of the Service, without cause or prior notice to you. Without limiting the foregoing, Yogupay may suspend, delay or reject your Remittance Payment request if:
- The value of one or more of your Remittance requests exceed any limits established by Yogupay;
- Yogupay is unable to charge your Payment Account for the principal amount of the remittance and related fees and charges;
- your Remittance request is incomplete or unclear;
- Yogupay is unable to confirm your identity or verify any registration or Beneficiary information, including the identity of the Beneficiary;
- Yogupay suspects fraud or irregularity or illegality;
- your name or the name of your Beneficiary is a possible match to a name on one or more applicable "watch lists" maintained by governments, inter-governmental groups or Yogupay to help detect and prevent illegal activity;
- in the case of a Money Transfer or a payment out of the Digital Money Account, the beneficiary has not yet set up their account to receive payment, or has not registered with us to use our services, or the terms of the Payee's account prevent completion of the Transaction, or the Payee's account is unable to receive payment in the form in which we make payment;
- Yogupay and/or Yogupay-designated service providers are unable to fulfil your request for any reason.
11.2 If your request for a Remittance is declined for any reason, Yogupay will notify you by an SMS / text message or electronic mail, or by any other reasonable means of notice.
11.3 Generally, if your request for a Remittance is declined or rejected, Yogupay will return the principal amount of your Remittance to your Payment Account, if it has already been withdrawn; there may be circumstances, however, where the law requires Yogupay to hold your Remittance or to pay it to another party (including a government agency). If that happens, Yogupay will inform you, if we are permitted to do so by applicable law.
12. Limitation of Liability.
Yogupay is not responsible for any delay, failure to execute, or an error in the execution of your Remittance request due to circumstances beyond Yogupay's reasonable control, whether caused by strikes, power failures, equipment malfunctions, war, riots, governmental or court orders, work stoppages or similar occurrences or circumstances, or incorrect or incomplete information provided by you. You further agree that Yogupay may refuse to process or delay processing any request if it would violate any guideline, rule, policy or regulation of any government authority or funds transfer system.
Under no circumstances will Yogupay be liable for damages, whether caused by the negligence of Yogupay's employees, contractors, agents or others, beyond the sum of one thousand united states dollars (usd 1,000.00), in addition to refunding the principal amount of the Remittance and any fees and costs you may have paid to Yogupay to send it. You may also be entitled to your attorneys’ fees and the costs of pursuing the dispute.
Notwithstanding the prior paragraph, you may contact Yogupay before you send your Remittance to request our written agreement to a higher limit on liability for a Remittance, which we may provide at our sole and absolute discretion. Yogupay may charge you for any such higher limit on liability.
Under no circumstances will Yogupay be liable for any incidental, indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages or the like.
The application and service are provided to you on an "as is'' and "as available" basis. YoguPay makes no warranties, express or implied with respect to the application or the service. YoguPay does not warrant the functionality of the application or the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of any information related thereto and expressly disclaims liability for non- functionality of the application and the service, or errors or omissions in any information. no warranty of any kind, implied, expressed or statutory including but not limited to the warranties of non infringement of third party rights, title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and freedom from computer virus, is given in conjunction with the application or the service.
13. Error Resolution and Cancellation Policy
For error resolution, transaction cancellation, questions, complaints or a written explanation of your rights, contact us at support@yogupay.com
Because Yogupay credits Remittances to Beneficiaries immediately, your remittance is typically not cancellable or refundable. If you believe that you sent a Remittance in error, you must contact us within thirty (30) minutes after you initiated it at support@yogupay.com and we will attempt to recall it. If your Remittance has not yet been credited to your Beneficiary’s account, we will refund it to you (including all fees, if any) within three (3) business days. However, if the Remittance has already been credited to your Beneficiary's account we will make reasonable efforts to reverse or retrieve it, but we may be unable to do so.
If you notify us that the account number, telephone number, Beneficiary name or other information that you provided to us when you initiated your Remittance was incorrect, we will promptly use reasonable efforts to recover the amount of your Remittance, but we may be unable to do so if your Remittance has already been paid or credited in accordance with the information you provided.
You have a right to dispute errors in your transaction. There is no charge for this service. If you think there is an error, contact us at support@yogupay.com within 180 days after you sent your Remittance, and provide your name, contact information, the Beneficiary's name, the date of your transfer, as well as the reason you believe there has been an error. Yogupay will investigate and determine whether an error occurred, and we will complete the investigation within ninety (90) days. We will inform you of the investigation results within three (3) business days after the investigation is completed. You may request copies of any documents we used in our investigation. If Yogupay was at fault, we will refund the total amount you paid, including fees, if any, within one business day, or as soon as reasonably practicable.
Yogupay will pay all refunds (whether resulting from a cancelled or disputed Remittance) either by a credit to your Payment Account or by check payment, at Yogupay's option. Alternatively, you can choose to have Yogupay process the Remittance again for no additional charge. However, if Yogupay has not charged your Payment Account, but an authorization hold for the amount to be charged by Yogupay has been placed on the funds at your bank, Yogupay will cancel the transaction and request that the authorization hold at your bank is released. This process can take several days; that timing depends on the relationship between your bank and our payment processor, over which we have no control.
Except for our obligation to investigate and refund described above, Yogupay is not liable to you for any loss resulting from Yogupay's inability to cancel or refund a Remittance.
14. Arbitration of Disputes.
This Agreement, and our communications with you prior to you entering into this Agreement, will be governed by the British law courts and will have jurisdiction over any disputes arising.Where allowed, any dispute or claim arising from or relating to this Agreement, any Remittance or the Service, including disputes involving this provision about the resolution of disputes, will be settled by binding arbitration.

The arbitration shall proceed in accordance with the provisions of the applicable provincial Arbitration Act. Where allowed, neither party shall have the right to participate in any class of claimants pertaining to any claim and Third parties' claims shall not be joined in any arbitration between Yogupay and you. The decision arrived at by the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding and no appeal shall lie therefrom. Judgement upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Each party will pay for its own attorneys, experts and witnesses. The costs of the arbitrator(s) shall be divided equally between the parties.

If you lose your phone or believe your access to the Application has been compromised, you should contact Yogupay immediately at support@yogupay.com to change your password or disable your access to the Application.
4. Description of the Service.
4.1 You may use the Application only to send a Remittance to a Beneficiary located in a country where Yogupay provides payment service, as designated on the Application from time to time. Yogupay and Yogupay-designated service providers will process the Remittance and make funds available for receipt by the Beneficiary as described below.
4.2 Your use of the Application or the Service does not constitute or create a fiduciary or escrow capacity between you and Yogupay. Yogupay provides a remittance service only; the funds that you direct Yogupay to pay to your Beneficiary are not held by Yogupay as a deposit or in escrow, and Yogupay is not holding or processing your Remittance as a fiduciary. Yogupay's only obligation is to pay your Remittance to your Beneficiary or to return the principal amount of the Remittance to you.
4.3 The Service is generally available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, although there may be times when the Service is unavailable to you or to your Beneficiary. Periods of unavailability may be caused by Yogupay's own acts (such as temporary periods when the Service is taken off-line to make upgrades or improvements), or by events beyond Yogupay's control, such as power outages, telecommunications failures, war or civil unrest, natural disasters or other acts of God. Yogupay may, from time to time, set limits on the value of Remittances you may send (both individually and over a period of time), as well as the value of Remittances any Beneficiary may receive. Yogupay may delay payment of your Remittance to allow Yogupay to determine that your Remittance complies with applicable law, regulation or Yogupay policies. Yogupay has the right, without notice to you, to refuse to accept or pay any Remittance that Yogupay determines in our sole discretion may violate applicable law, regulation or our policies, including laws, regulations and policies intended to help detect and prevent money-laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, and other abuses of financial services; if we accept a Remittance and then determine that it may violate any such law, regulation or policy, we may hold the Remittance until such time that the matter is resolved.
4.4 You must only use the Service to send a Remittance to people that you know personally, and not to pay for goods or services from third parties you do not know and trust. If you choose to pay third parties for goods and services using the Service, please note that Yogupay has no control over, and is not responsible for, the quality, safety, legality, or delivery of such third party goods or services, and that any such use of the Service is entirely at your own risk.
5. Authority to Charge Payment Account; Fees and Expenses.
5.1 In order to use the Service, you must use the Application to direct Yogupay to withdraw the principal value of the Remittance from your Payment Account, plus any applicable fees and charges; by requesting a Remittance, you authorise Yogupay to charge your Payment Account for the principal amount of the requested Remittance and applicable fees and charges, if any. You acknowledge that Yogupay has no obligation to process or complete a requested Remittance if Yogupay is unable for any reason to obtain authorization or settlement of the funds from your Payment Account for the principal amount of the requested Remittance and all applicable fees and charges.
5.2 Yogupay will disclose its fees and charges for providing the Service to you before you initiate a Remittance. Yogupay's fees and charges may change from time to time and may depend, among other factors, on the principal amount of your Remittance, your type of Payment Account, your location, and the location of your Beneficiary. In addition to the fees and charges, Yogupay will also show you the foreign exchange rate (that is, the rate at which your funds will be converted into the currency to be paid to your Beneficiary) applicable to your Remittance before you send it. Yogupay's foreign exchange rates change from time to time. In addition to the fees and charges you pay when sending a Remittance, Yogupay makes money when we convert the currency you send into the currency we pay to your Beneficiary.
5.3 If the charge to your Payment Account is returned, charged back or canceled for any reason after Yogupay has processed your Remittance request, you will be responsible to Yogupay for the principal amount of the Remittance and all associated fees and charges. You agree to pay such amounts, plus any applicable additional service fee and/or a non-sufficient funds (NSF) fee of USD 20 as a result of the return to Yogupay immediately upon demand. You authorise us to debit your Payment Account for the amount of any of the foregoing amounts.
You may be subject to fees (including a cash advance fee) under your agreement with the bank or other financial institution that issues your debit card when you use such a card for a Remittance. You should review your card agreement regarding such potential fees.
5.4 Although Yogupay will pay the full principal amount of your Remittance to your Beneficiary in the currency Yogupay specifies to you when you initiate your Remittance, your Beneficiary may incur costs, fees or charges from their bank, mobile phone company, E-Wallet issuer or other parties to maintain or withdraw the funds. Furthermore, your Beneficiary's ability to use or withdraw the funds you send may be limited by the terms of your Beneficiary's E-Wallet issuer.
6. Reliance by Yogupay.
Use care when inputting information about your Beneficiary; spell your Beneficiary’s name correctly and provide it in full, and verify that you have provided us with the Beneficiary’s correct phone number. You represent and warrant to us that all information you enter into the application or otherwise provide to Yogupay is true and complete, including information about you, your Payment Account, and your Beneficiary. When processing a Remittance Payment, Yogupay may rely on the registration information and Remittance information that you provide, including information about your Beneficiary. You acknowledge that any errors in the information you provide, including misidentification of Beneficiary(s), incorrect or inconsistent account names and numbers, or misspellings, are your responsibility.
7. Execution of a Remittance.
The Yogupay Remittance Facility Application is generally available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. In most cases, your Beneficiary is paid without delay through the Yogupay mobile application; accordingly, once you originate a Remittance, you may be unable to stop or to change it.While most transactions are paid or made available to your Beneficiary within minutes, if Yogupay becomes aware that delivery to your Beneficiary is delayed, Yogupay will contact you as soon as practicable and keep you informed about the delay.
8. Payment of Funds to Beneficiary
8.1 Yogupay and/or Yogupay designated service providers will arrange for the payment of the Remittance to your Beneficiary. Yogupay reserves the right to select the form of payment to the Beneficiary. Yogupay and/or Yogupay designated service providers will use reasonable efforts to provide payment in a form requested, but the Yogupay Application is not obligated to provide payment options for a specific Payment. Depending on the situation and the availability of various payment options, payment may be made by means of a credit to a mobile wallet, credit to a bank account or credit card account or by some other payment instrument. Not all payment methods are available in all countries, and Yogupay reserves the right to change payment method options. If a Beneficiary cannot be located and identified, the Remittance Payment funds may be returned to you either by a credit to your Payment Account or at Yogupay's option.
8.2 Yogupay reserves the right to establish identification and verification requirements for a Beneficiary to receive a Remittance. Yogupay may rely, without further investigation, upon identification information or documentation provided by you or a Beneficiary, including any code or identifier number of the Remittance, when paying the Beneficiary. Yogupay has the right to decline to pay the Beneficiary if Yogupay cannot verify the identity of the Beneficiary or if Yogupay believes that you or your Beneficiary may be in violation of this Agreement or any applicable law, regulation or Yogupay policy. Although Yogupay has the right to establish identification and verification requirements, and the Beneficiary's failure to comply with them is a basis for declining payment of the Remittance, Yogupay has no obligation to establish any such requirements.
9. Foreign Exchange
9.1 Payments to Beneficiaries are generally made in the currency of the Beneficiary's country. If permitted by applicable law and the Application, you may request your Remittance to be paid in another currency approved and made available by Yogupay from time to time.
9.2 If a currency conversion is required, Yogupay and/or Yogupay-designated service providers will convert the currency in which you initiate your Remittance into the local currency at the Yogupay exchange rate for your Remittance in effect at the time you initiate your Remittance. Yogupay will disclose the exchange rate to you before you authorise the Remittance. Yogupay's exchange rates vary from time to time, and may also differ depending on the principal value of your Remittance and other factors. In addition to the fees and charges applicable to your Remittance, Yogupay makes money when your currency is converted into the currency in which your Remittance is paid.
10. Permissible Remittance Payments.
The Application is not intended for use by any person in any jurisdiction or country where such use would be contrary to law or regulation. Specifically and without limitation, you may not use the Service for any Remittance;
- induced by or involving the proceeds of crime, fraud or other improper activity;
- exceeding Yogupay's transaction limits (whether in amount, frequency or otherwise);
- sent for the purpose of gambling, including placing bets or paying winnings;
- intended to be used as an escrow or similar capacity for delayed payment;

11. Rejection of Remittance Payment Request.
11.1 Yogupay has the right to reject your request for a Remittance, or to decline to complete a request for a Remittance, or to impose a value or frequency limitation on your use of the Service, without cause or prior notice to you. Without limiting the foregoing, Yogupay may suspend, delay or reject your Remittance Payment request if:
- The value of one or more of your Remittance requests exceed any limits established by Yogupay;
- Yogupay is unable to charge your Payment Account for the principal amount of the remittance and related fees and charges;
- your Remittance request is incomplete or unclear;
- Yogupay is unable to confirm your identity or verify any registration or Beneficiary information, including the identity of the Beneficiary;
- Yogupay suspects fraud or irregularity or illegality;
- your name or the name of your Beneficiary is a possible match to a name on one or more applicable "watch lists" maintained by governments, inter-governmental groups or Yogupay to help detect and prevent illegal activity;
- in the case of a Money Transfer or a payment out of the Digital Money Account, the beneficiary has not yet set up their account to receive payment, or has not registered with us to use our services, or the terms of the Payee's account prevent completion of the Transaction, or the Payee's account is unable to receive payment in the form in which we make payment;
- Yogupay and/or Yogupay-designated service providers are unable to fulfil your request for any reason.
11.2 If your request for a Remittance is declined for any reason, Yogupay will notify you by an SMS / text message or electronic mail, or by any other reasonable means of notice.
11.3 Generally, if your request for a Remittance is declined or rejected, Yogupay will return the principal amount of your Remittance to your Payment Account, if it has already been withdrawn; there may be circumstances, however, where the law requires Yogupay to hold your Remittance or to pay it to another party (including a government agency). If that happens, Yogupay will inform you, if we are permitted to do so by applicable law.
12. Limitation of Liability.
Yogupay is not responsible for any delay, failure to execute, or an error in the execution of your Remittance request due to circumstances beyond Yogupay's reasonable control, whether caused by strikes, power failures, equipment malfunctions, war, riots, governmental or court orders, work stoppages or similar occurrences or circumstances, or incorrect or incomplete information provided by you. You further agree that Yogupay may refuse to process or delay processing any request if it would violate any guideline, rule, policy or regulation of any government authority or funds transfer system.
Under no circumstances will Yogupay be liable for damages, whether caused by the negligence of Yogupay's employees, contractors, agents or others, beyond the sum of one thousand united states dollars (usd 1,000.00), in addition to refunding the principal amount of the Remittance and any fees and costs you may have paid to Yogupay to send it. You may also be entitled to your attorneys’ fees and the costs of pursuing the dispute.
Notwithstanding the prior paragraph, you may contact Yogupay before you send your Remittance to request our written agreement to a higher limit on liability for a Remittance, which we may provide at our sole and absolute discretion. Yogupay may charge you for any such higher limit on liability.
Under no circumstances will Yogupay be liable for any incidental, indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages or the like.
The application and service are provided to you on an "as is'' and "as available" basis. YoguPay makes no warranties, express or implied with respect to the application or the service.

13. Error Resolution and Cancellation Policy
For error resolution, transaction cancellation, questions, complaints or a written explanation of your rights, contact us at support@yogupay.com
Because Yogupay credits Remittances to Beneficiaries immediately, your remittance is typically not cancellable or refundable. If you believe that you sent a Remittance in error, you must contact us within thirty (30) minutes after you initiated it at support@yogupay.com and we will attempt to recall it. If your Remittance has not yet been credited to your Beneficiary’s account, we will refund it to you (including all fees, if any) within three (3) business days. However, if the Remittance has already been credited to your Beneficiary's account we will make reasonable efforts to reverse or retrieve it, but we may be unable to do so.
If you notify us that the account number, telephone number, Beneficiary name or other information that you provided to us when you initiated your Remittance was incorrect, we will promptly use reasonable efforts to recover the amount of your Remittance, but we may be unable to do so if your Remittance has already been paid or credited in accordance with the information you provided.
You have a right to dispute errors in your transaction. There is no charge for this service. If you think there is an error, contact us at support@yogupay.com within 180 days after you sent your Remittance, and provide your name, contact information, the Beneficiary's name, the date of your transfer, as well as the reason you believe there has been an error. Yogupay will investigate and determine whether an error occurred, and we will complete the investigation within ninety (90) days. We will inform you of the investigation results within three (3) business days after the investigation is completed. You may request copies of any documents we used in our investigation. If Yogupay was at fault, we will refund the total amount you paid, including fees, if any, within one business day, or as soon as reasonably practicable.
Yogupay will pay all refunds (whether resulting from a cancelled or disputed Remittance) either by a credit to your Payment Account or by check payment, at Yogupay's option. Alternatively, you can choose to have Yogupay process the Remittance again for no additional charge. However, if Yogupay has not charged your Payment Account, but an authorization hold for the amount to be charged by Yogupay has been placed on the funds at your bank, Yogupay will cancel the transaction and request that the authorization hold at your bank is released. This process can take several days; that timing depends on the relationship between your bank and our payment processor, over which we have no control.
Except for our obligation to investigate and refund described above, Yogupay is not liable to you for any loss resulting from Yogupay's inability to cancel or refund a Remittance.
14. Arbitration of Disputes.

The arbitration shall proceed in accordance with the provisions of the applicable provincial Arbitration Act. Where allowed, neither party shall have the right to participate in any class of claimants pertaining to any claim and Third parties' claims shall not be joined in any arbitration between Yogupay and you. The decision arrived at by the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding and no appeal shall lie therefrom.
