5. USING YOUR CARD
- 5.1 Your Card can be used at any Merchant (fees apply, see paragraph 12). You will need to authorise the Transaction so that we can check it is genuine. We will treat the Transaction as genuine if:
- 5.1.1 your Card is tapped against a Contactless enabled reader and accepted by such reader;
- 5.1.2 your PIN or other security code personal to you is used;
- 5.1.3 your Card is used and you authorise the Transaction by signature of the receipt; or,
- 5.1.4 the Transaction was authorised from My Account while you were logged in;
- 5.1.5 the Transaction was authorised from the mobile phone which you registered in My Account.
- 5.1.6 the Transaction was authorised from the Orange Cash app which was registered to your Account.
- 5.2 Subject to paragraph 3.5, your Card can be used to make withdrawals at ATMs bearing the MasterCard Acceptance Mark (fees apply, see paragraph 12). You can withdraw up to £250 a day but some Merchants or ATMs may have lower limits. Please note that extra ATM fees in addition to those shown in paragraph 12 may be charged by certain ATM providers.
- 5.3 Your Card is a prepaid card, which means that the Available Balance will be reduced by the full amount of each Transaction and authorisation (see explanations in 5.5.1 to 5.5.4 of the different circumstances in which requests for authorisation might take place), plus any applicable taxes and charges, including additional ATM charges if any. This is your ’Full Deductible Amount’, which must be less than or equal to the Available Balance on your Card. You must not use your Card after the expiry date of the Card or if the Full Deductible Amount exceeds the Available Balance. If, for any reason, a Transaction is processed for an amount greater than the Available Balance on your Card, you must repay us the amount by which the Full Deductible Amount exceeds your Available Balance immediately after receiving an invoice from us. Should you not repay this amount immediately after receiving an invoice from us we reserve the right to take all steps necessary, including legal action, to recover any monies outstanding.
- 5.4 You can check your Available Balance by visiting My Account; or via the Orange Cash App (standard Network charges apply); or by calling the IVR Enquiry Number (fees may apply, see paragraph 12). If the mobile phone number you registered on My Account is an Orange Mobile Phone and operates on the Orange Network, you can also check your Available Balance or the last 3 Transactions for free by sending SMS to 311.
- 5.5 Due to security safeguards, Merchants that accept your Card are required to seek authorisation from us for all of the Transactions that you make. There are some circumstances where Merchants may require you to have an Available Balance greater than the value of the Transaction you wish to make. You will only be charged for the actual and final value of the Transaction you make. Merchants request this as they may need to access more funds than you initially planned to spend. For example:
- 5.5.1 Hotels and rental cars – As Merchants may not be able to accurately predict how much your final bill will be, they may request an authorisation for funds greater than your Available Balance.
- 5.5.2 Internet Merchants – Certain internet Merchant sites will, on registration or at checkout stage, send a request for payment authorisation to verify if funds are available. This will temporarily impact your Available Balance. Also please bear in mind that many sites will not deduct payment until goods are dispatched so please be aware of this when checking your Available Balance to make sure you always have sufficient funds available to cover your purchases.
- 5.5.3 In-transit travel purchases – Merchants may not be able to authorise your Transaction if they cannot obtain an online authorisation from us. Examples include on-board cruise or train charges and some in-flight purchases.
- 5.6 Your Card cannot be used at self service petrol pumps. You can use your Card to pay by taking it to the cashier.
- 5.7 Your Card should not be used as a form of identification.
- 5.8 Your Card may not be used for any illegal purpose or in any manner prohibited by law.
- 5.9 The Available Balance on your Account will not earn any interest.
- 5.10 We may ask you to surrender the Card at anytime for a valid reason in accordance with the provisions in paragraph 16 of this Agreement. If we do so, we will give you back your e-money in accordance with paragraph 8 of this Agreement.
- 5.11 You can also set up payment instructions to load Orange Cash Cards belonging to other people, or load airtime on to an Orange PAYG Mobile Phone. It is your responsibility to ensure that all the details that you have entered are correct and that any phone numbers entered relate to a valid Orange PAYG Mobile Phone or Orange Cash Card. Once you have set up the instructions on My Account, you will be able to amend them as necessary. If you have set up the loading instructions on My Account you can load an Orange PAYG Mobile Phone or load another Orange Cash Card in the following ways:
- 5.11.1 My Account on the internet; or
- 5.11.2 My Account accessed from your mobile phone; standard network charges apply.
- 5.11.3 By sending SMS to 311 (your mobile phone number registered on My Account must be an Orange Mobile Phone). After sending any SMS, you must delete it immediately. This is to ensure that your Identity Details remain secure.
