4. Sign-Up & Identity Verification

4.4. Extra Layers of Verification
Some users might be asked to complete extra identity checks—even after being approved. Continued access may depend on completing those successfully.
4.5. Updating Your Details
If your ID, bank account, or address changes, you're expected to update that in your SmartRemit profile promptly. Keeping your info accurate ensures smooth transfers.
4.6. Your Data = Your Responsibility

5. How Transfers Work
5.1. Submit Your Transfer
Once your account is approved, you can request international money transfers via our website or app in just a few clicks.
5.2. It's a Deal: Binding Transfer Requests
Once you submit a transfer, it's locked in. The moment we receive your request, it becomes an official transaction.
5.3. Confirmation & Corrections
You'll see a summary of your request at checkout and receive confirmation by email or SMS. If something seems off—act quickly! If you don't reach out right away, we'll assume all details are accurate.
5.4. Stay Legit
You must use SmartRemit only for genuine, lawful purposes. Anything suspicious could lead to blocked transactions or even account closure.
5.5. Double-Check Everything
You are fully responsible for inputting accurate details. Errors—like wrong account numbers—can't be reversed if the money has already been sent.
5.6. Trust in Your Beneficiary Data
We send funds based only on the account number and bank code you provide—not the name of the recipient. Please make sure they're accurate.
5.7. Safeguard Your Login
Only you should know your login credentials. Any instruction we receive using your username/password will be treated as genuine.
5.8. Our Right to Say No
Sometimes, we may choose to reject a request. This can happen without advance notice or explanation.
5.9. Exchange Rate Expiry
The rate you see when booking depends on fast action. If we don't receive your funds or info promptly, we might need to offer you a new rate.
5.10. Human Error Disclaimer
If an obvious pricing error (e.g., wrong exchange rate) appears due to a technical glitch, that quote isn't valid. Kindly inform us if you identify such an error.
5.11. Pre-Funding Your Account
To protect against non-payment risks, we may require you to add money to your SmartRemit balance before we process high-value or sensitive transfers.
5.12. Your Legal Promises
By proceeding with a transfer, you confirm:
- The money is legally yours.
- You're over 18 years of age.
- You're not hiding behind a third party unless legally authorized.
- You're acting within your legal and professional capacity.
- You're not speculating on currency movements.
- Our platform should not be your sole source for financial advice.
- You're not using the service for unlawful activities like fraud or terror funding.
- You'll provide extra documents if we need to verify the origin of funds.
5.13. Transaction Security Practices
We use advanced encryption and firewall protection to keep your data safe. Still, no system is perfect. If a breach ever occurs despite our efforts, you understand we aren't liable for losses resulting from issues beyond our control. Your own device and data security are equally your responsibility.
6. Instructions via Phone, Fax, Email, or Written Communication
6.1. Phone Instructions – No Obligation
We are not required to act on any instructions given verbally over the phone. Such requests are handled solely at our discretion.
6.2. Fax and Written Requests Must Be Signed
If you submit instructions via fax or physical documents, they must carry your signature exactly as it appears on your official ID documents provided during registration.
6.3. Emails Must Come from Registered Addresses
Any email instructions will only be accepted if sent from your email address registered in our system and directed to our official service email IDs.
6.4. Verification Before Action
We may conduct verification checks to confirm the authenticity of such instructions using calls, emails, faxes, or other tools before we proceed, in line with applicable Australian regulations.
6.5. Processing of Non-Portal Instructions
Instructions received outside the SmartRemit Portal are not acceptable.
6.6. Discretion to Reject
We reserve the right to reject any part or all a transfer request or instruction at our sole discretion, without providing justification. Any related risks or consequences will be borne by you.
6.7. Notification of Rejected Requests
If we decide not to act on your request or to delay action, we will make reasonable efforts to inform you of the decision, but will not be responsible for any resulting loss or impact.
7. Pay-In Policy: Depositing Funds for Transfers
7.1. Funding Your Transfers
Each time you initiate a transfer, you agree to promptly deposit the transfer amount along with applicable fees into our assigned bank account—ideally on the same day. You must use your own bank account registered with SmartRemit; third-party transfers are not permitted, and we are not liable for any issues that arise from such transactions.
7.2. No Cash or Cheques
We do not accept cash or cheque payments under any circumstances. We only accept digital forms of payment for all transactions.
7.3. Accepted Payment Methods
We support various electronic payment options such as internet banking and Pay ID (collectively known as "Pay-In Methods"). These services are offered by third-party providers, not by us. Please note that availability is subject to change without any prior notification.
7.4. Possible Delays in Settlement
In certain situations, settlement of your funds may be delayed. We are not responsible for delays caused by issues with third-party payment providers.
7.5. Late or Missing Funds
If funds are not received by us in time, we reserve the right to either cancel or roll over your transfer request without prior notice. You will be held accountable for any resulting financial losses, including exchange rate losses.
7.6. Transfers Made Without Full Payment
If we process a transfer erroneously before receiving full payment from you, it does not mean we waive our right to recover the remaining balance. Your obligation to pay the full amount persists.
7.7. No Interest in Held Funds
We do not offer or accrue any interest in the funds you send us, regardless of whether they are held temporarily (e.g., as pre-funding) or not.
8. Pay-out and Delivery Terms
8.1. Multiple Payout Options
We offer various ways to deliver funds to your recipient, depending on the country and method you choose while placing your transfer request. Each payout option—such as bank deposit, cash pickup, or mobile wallet—is treated as a separate payment service.
8.2. How Funds Are Sent
All transfers are processed electronically. We do not issue physical payments (e.g., cheques or drafts).
8.3. Order of Processing
Transfers are generally processed in the order they are received (first-in, first-out). However, we maintain the right to prioritize specific transfers as we deem necessary.
8.4. Partner Networks
We may work with trusted third-party partners, also known as Correspondents, such as local banks or payment providers, to deliver funds on your behalf. These entities help us complete your transfer efficiently and securely.
8.5. Possible Deductions by Partners
In some cases, our Correspondent may deduct additional charges from the transfer amount before delivering it to your recipient. This could mean the final payout is slightly less than the amount shown on your transfer confirmation. If these charges are billed to us, this will be deducted from the principal amount.
8.6. Standard Delivery Timeframes
Bank Deposits and Cash Pickups are typically completed within 1–3 business days.
Delays may occur if the recipient's bank or pickup point differs from the Correspondent's main location.
8.7. Immediate Cash Transfers
For certain services marked as "Instant Transfers," the payout is usually completed within 24 hours, depending on the location and service partner selected.
8.8. If a Delay Occurs
If the funds are not available to your recipient within the expected timeframe, you can request us to investigate. If the delay is due to external factors beyond our control, you may be responsible for covering any costs incurred during the investigation.
8.9. External Factors Causing Delays
Delivery may be delayed due to:
- Banking system cut-off times
- Errors or delays by partner institutions
- International payment complications
- Natural disasters or unforeseen events
In these cases, we cannot be held liable for any resulting delays.
8.10. We're Not Liable for Indirect Losses
As permitted by law, we and our employees are not responsible for any indirect damage or losses caused by delays or service disruptions, especially when acting on your instructions in good faith.
8.11. If You Provide Incorrect Information
If your money is sent to the wrong person due to an error on your part, we are not required to recover the funds or resend them. You will need to submit a new request for the transfer.
8.12. If We Make a Mistake
If we send the money to the wrong person due to our error, we will take immediate steps at our own cost to recover the funds. We may require your cooperation, especially if the recipient is known or connected to you.
9. Changes to a Transfer (Amendment Policy)
9.1. Modifying a Transfer Request
If you request changes after submitting a transfer, it may delay the payout and could incur extra fees. We may accept or reject amendment requests based on the processing status of your transaction.
9.2. Changing Beneficiary Details
If the payout has already been made, changes are not possible.
9.3. Incorrect Beneficiary Information
If we are notified by our partner that the transfer failed due to incorrect recipient details, we will inform you via your registered email. If you promptly send us corrected details, we'll do our best to update the transaction—without accepting any liability.
9.4. No Action from Your Side?
If we don't hear back from you within a reasonable time, we will attempt to retrieve the funds and return them to you. However, this process may take time and is not always guaranteed.
9.5. Charges for Amendments
Any changes to your transaction may result in additional fees. Amendments are processed only at our discretion.

10.1. When Is a Cancellation Valid?
Once you confirm a Transfer Request, it becomes legally binding. It cannot be considered cancelled unless you receive written or email confirmation of cancellation from Smart Remit.

- The Correspondent confirms funds have not been and cannot be paid out, or

10.5. Cancellation Timeframe
The time it takes to process a cancellation depends on when we or our partners receive the request and the transfer's progress.

- We'll forward your request to our partner but cannot guarantee results.
