Payen may also deduct amounts you owe from money you receive into your account, or money you attempt to withdraw. You are responsible for all risks associated with maintaining balances in multiple currencies (including, without limitation, the risk that the value of these balances will fluctuate as exchange rates change, which over time may result in a significant decrease in the value of the balances).

The foreign exchange handling fees are shown in the Pricing section of our website. Our fees may either be a fixed amount in GBP or expressed as a percentage of the value of the transaction. If fees are deducted from a balance or a transaction denominated in a different currency, the GBP fee amount will be converted into an equivalent fee in that other currency based on our wholesale exchange rate applicable at the time and available within your pinPay Account under the myCurrency area of your account and then deducted. We will not apply a pinPay FX handling fee on currency conversions of fees. Paying your Fees If your pinPay Account balance is insufficient to cover the transaction fees, we may refuse to execute the payment. Reversal or chargeback fees will be deducted when incurred. You hereby authorise us to deduct fees, payable by you, from your account balance.

Repayment of the negative balance is due immediately without notice, however, we reserve the right at any time to send you reminders that you need to upload funds or to take other debt collection measures including but not limited to instructing a debt collection agency or solicitors or to pursue the claim in court.
