When you purchase a paysafecard from a Sales Outlet, you will receive the paysafecard in the form of a print-out or in the form of a plastic card. If you receive the paysafecard in the form of a print-out, the PIN and a serial number for the paysafecard, together with other information will appear thereon. If you receive the paysafecard in the form of a plastic card, the serial number appears on the front of the card, while the PIN is concealed under a scratch-off panel. If you purchase a paysafecard on-line, you will receive the PIN and serial number in electronic form.

We strongly recommend that you immediately print out and/or record the PIN and the serial number for safekeeping. 3.5 With the exception of promotional paysafecards, paysafecards do not have an expiry date and shall be valid for as long as there is a Balance remaining on the card. 4.

The paysafecard does not require activation and can be used any time after purchase. 4.2 Each time the paysafecard is used to purchase goods and/or services from a Webshop, the Balance will be immediately reduced by the Transaction Amount and any applicable foreign currency conversion fees. 4.3 Multiple paysafecards can be used for one transaction. However the transaction amount cannot exceed 500 NZD per single transaction. In any case, the transaction amount made with a single paysafecard or with multiple paysafecards is limited to the Balance remaining thereon as well as to the limits stated in 3.2. An attempt to complete a transaction with a paysafecard, or with multiple paysafecards, with a Balance in an amount less than the Transaction Amount will result in the transaction being declined. Cashback transactions (a Transaction Amount greater than the price of the goods and/or services, inclusive of all applicable taxes) cannot be made with the paysafecard. 4.4 Prior to completing a transaction with your paysafecard, you will be asked to enter your PIN in order to validate your transaction. A validated transaction cannot be revoked. 4.5 By entering your PIN, you acknowledge that the Balance will be decreased by the Transaction Amount, plus conversion fees, if applicable, whether you receive the goods and/or services in question or not. You thereby irrevocably authorise the debit of the Transaction Amount. You also irrevocably authorise us to deduct the Transaction Amount, plus applicable fees, from your Balance and to transfer the Transaction Amount to the Webshop. 4.6 All debits of Transaction Amounts from your Balance will be made in New Zealand Dollars. If you pay for goods or services in another currency, the Transaction Amount will be converted into New Zealand Dollars at the exchange rate applicable at the time of the transaction which rate and conversion amount will be posted on the Website and will be also shown at the time of the transaction. (Please see Section 6). 4.7 Without our express approval any legal transaction of resale of paysafecard is prohibited. Likewise, any further transfer of paysafecards (in return of payment or gratuitous) outside the money laundering requirements is prohibited. In particular, it is forbidden to sell, trade or purchase paysafecards on unauthorized Internet platforms. This prohibition applies specifically to file sharing network/bourse. A purchase of paysafecard over the Internet is allowed exclusively through authorized online web shops, listed on the Website. 4.8 You are responsible for keeping track of your transactions and your Balance. You may check the Balance on your paysafecard on the Website at any time. No paper statements are issued. 4.9 You may consult a list of the transactions made with your paysafecard on the Website at any time. If you note any discrepancy relating to your transactions on your paysafecard posted on-line and your records, you must immediately contact us at info@paysafecard.com. We reserve the right to ask you to provide us with additional written information (such as your receipt from a Webshop). If you fail to notify us within thirty (30) days from the date of a transaction, the amount in your account with respect to such transaction will be deemed correct. Provided you have provided us with any requested information, we will correct any error on our part by crediting the amount to your Balance or by issuing of a new paysafecard. Subject to Section 9.1 below if, in our view, the discrepancy is not due to any error on our part, we will not credit your account and will notify you thereof by email as soon as possible. 4.10 If you think that your paysafecard is defective, you should immediately inform us thereof by calling our hotline number (see number on our Website) or via e-mail (info@paysafecard.com). If your paysafecard is defective, we will repair it at no cost. If the paysafecard cannot be repaired, we will provide you with another paysafecard with a balance equivalent to the Balance that was on the paysafecard, in accordance with our records, at the time you report the defect to us. 5. No refund possible If you haven’t fully used your valid paysafecard, yet, please note that an early redemption of your paysafecard against a refund of the still existing value on your paysafecard is excluded. 6. Currency 6.1 paysafecards sold in New Zealand shall be issued in New Zealand Dollars (NZD). Any payments made for goods/services in another currency shall be converted into New Zealand Dollars using the exchange rate applicable on the date of transaction. Our applicable exchange rates will be posted daily on the Website (Weblink: https://www.paysafecard.com/en-nz/currency-calculator/) and will be displayed during the payment transaction. The exchanged rate used and the amount that will be debited from the paysafecard will also be shown at the time of the transaction. 6.2 For every cross currency transaction (paysafecard currency is not the payment currency in the Webshop) where one of the involved currencies is EUR a general exchange rate surcharge of 2 % of the Transaction Amount will be applied. However for cross currency transactions where EUR is not involved in the transaction an exchange rate surcharge of 4.04 % of the Transaction Amount will apply. 7. Your Duty to Exercise Due Care, Security and PIN Protection 7.1 When purchasing a paysafecard you must verify whether a PIN and a serial number are indicated on the print-out. If you are unable to read the PIN or if you think that your paysafecard has been tampered with in any way, you must immediately inform us thereof by calling our hotline or via e-mail (info.nz@paysafecard.com). You will be asked to provide the paysafecard's serial number. If the serial number is illegible, send us a copy of the paysafecard by e-mail (info.nz@paysafecard.com). Replacement of the paysafecard will be possible after our verification of the circumstances. 7.2 You agree to take all reasonable precautions to protect your paysafecard against loss, theft or unauthorized use. Do not disclose your PIN to any unauthorised third party. 7.3 You should treat your paysafecard like cash.

(Please see Section 4.10). 7.5 Procedure for stolen cards If your paysafecard has been stolen or you have cause to believe your paysafecard has been used in an unauthorized way, you agree to inform us thereof immediately. Please contact us in either case by calling our hotline (see number on our Website) or via e-mail (info.nz@paysafecard.com) so that the remaining Balance on your paysafecard can be frozen and the paysafecard cancelled. You will be asked to provide us with your name, the serial number of the paysafecard, the denomination in which the paysafecard was purchased and your recent transaction history. We cannot cancel or re-issue a paysafecard without its serial number. It may require up to one full Business Day from the time you notify us about the unauthorized use or theft to successfully freeze your Balance. If our records indicate that there is a Balance remaining on the paysafecard, we will cancel the paysafecard and shall issue a new paysafecard in the amount of the Balance on the cancelled paysafecard to you, unless we have reasonable grounds to suspect fraud or gross negligence on your part. We may deactivate any replaced paysafecard at any time if fraud is suspected. All transactions carried out prior to notification to us of the loss, theft or unauthorized use of your paysafecard shall be deemed to have been authorized by you. 7.6 We shall only issue a new paysafecard after you have provided us with evidence of purchase of the stolen paysafecard. You shall furthermore be obliged to provide us with the relevant file reference of the police station in charge. 7.7 You furthermore agree to cooperate with us in our efforts to recover from and assist in the prosecution of unauthorized users. 8. Disputes 8.1 Any disputes with regard to purchases made with your paysafecard shall be settled by you with the Webshop from which the purchase was made. We shall not be responsible for any problems you may encounter with respect to the goods or services that you purchase with your paysafecard, including but not limited to quality, safety and security, legality or any other aspect with respect to the goods or services paid for with your paysafecard.
