As long as the Customer agrees to and complies with this Agreement, SwyftCap grants a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and limited right to access and use the Services to the Customer under the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
Each Customer has the right, on his written demand, to be provided with or made available periodically and at least once a month for free the information listed in articles 76 (1) or 77 (1) of the Law of 2009 in a way which enables the Customer to store and reproduce such information.
In accordance with articles 59 and 78 of the Law of 2009, the legal provisions relating to payment services of which the application may be excluded by contract in the relationships between a payment service provider and a non-consumer shall not apply to the business relationship between the Customer and SwyftCap. Thus, the Customer agrees in particular that the provisions of Title III and articles 79 (1), 81 (3), 86, 88, 89, 90, 93 and 101 of the Law of 2009 do not apply in whole or in part and that time limits apply which are different from those laid down in article 85 of the Law of 2009.
In the relation between SwyftCap and the Customer, the legal provisions relating inter alia to (i) the form of and procedure for giving consent to the initiation of a payment order or the execution of a transaction, as well as (ii) the legal provisions relating to the maximum execution time for the Services to be provided and (iii) to the possibility to agree on spending limits for the use of the Services, such as articles 81 (1), (2) and (4), 82 (1), 91, 92, 94, 95, 96, 97 and 99 of the Law of 2009 shall apply at any time.
This Agreement governs all access to and use of the Platform and Services by the Customer. It constitutes a legally binding contract between SwyftCap and the Customer.
This Agreement applies to the payment services and crypto-asset services provided by SwyftCap to the Customers, including the execution of payment transactions, transfer of funds on a payment account and the execution of foreign exchange services in compliance with the Law of 2009, as well as providing custody and administration of crypto-assets, exchange of crypto-assets for funds, exchange of crypto-assets for other crypto-assets, execution of orders for crypto-assets on behalf of the Customer, reception and transmission of orders for crypto-assets on behalf of the Customer, and providing transfer services for crypto-assets on behalf of the Customer, in compliance with MiCAR.
These Services are provided under SwyftCap's PI license and CASP license issued by the CSSF within the meaning of the Law of 2009 and MiCAR. As a PI and CASP, SwyftCap is under the prudential supervision of the CSSF, established at L-1150 Luxembourg, 283, route d'Arlon (Tel: (+352) 26 25 1 - 1). SwyftCap is hence listed in the CSSF official register of PIs and CASPs, as published on the website of the CSSF (https://edesk.apps.cssf.lu/search-entities/search?lng=fr).
Nothing herein creates any fiduciary relationship, advisory duty, or trust arrangement between SwyftCap and the Customer.
Access to the Services is strictly limited to business and institutional clients. Natural persons acting in a consumer capacity are not eligible. The Customer shall use the Services only for professional, commercial or business purposes. The Services are intended to enable payments and crypto-asset services for business-related, professional and commercial activities and are not intended for personal or person-to-person use.
SwyftCap may amend, suspend, or introduce Services from time to time to comply with Applicable Law or to protect its regulatory standing.
If there is any conflict between this Agreement and any policy or notice published by SwyftCap, this Agreement shall prevail unless expressly stated otherwise.
SwyftCap may modify or discontinue any Service to ensure compliance with Applicable Law, or other supervisory requirements. Such action shall not constitute breach or liability.
The Customer acknowledges that SwyftCap may disclose relevant information to the CSSF or other competent authorities where required by Applicable Law or supervisory duty.
If a change in Applicable Law, supervisory expectation, or prudential requirement increases SwyftCap's cost of providing the Services, SwyftCap may (i) vary fees with immediate effect to recover such cost; or (ii) discontinue an affected Service on notice. Such actions do not constitute breach.
As SwyftCap is a PI, funds held with SwyftCap are not covered by the Luxembourg deposit guarantee fund (Fonds de garantie des dépôts Luxembourg ("FGDL")) or any equivalent scheme (article 10(2) of the Law of 2009). Although the funds will not be covered by the FGDL, they will be protected in accordance with article 14 of the Law of 2009, and article 70 MiCAR.
Before activating an Account, the Customer shall complete all Know-Your-Business ("KYB") and AML/CFT requirements as prescribed by SwyftCap under Applicable Law. The Customer must provide accurate, complete, and current information and promptly notify SwyftCap via email to [email protected] of any changes.
SwyftCap shall have sole discretion to accept or reject any application and may request additional information or documentation at any time.
SwyftCap conducts ongoing transaction and business-relationship monitoring and the Customer shall co-operate fully with all reasonable requests, including enhanced due diligence procedures.
SwyftCap may suspend or terminate access without liability if the Customer fails to satisfy AML/CFT requirements or is reasonably suspected of non-compliance, sanctions breaches, or criminal conduct. Prior to the suspension or termination, the Customer will be informed of the action and the reasons, unless giving such information would compromise objectively security reasons or is prohibited by Applicable Law.
SwyftCap shall retain Customer identification data and transaction records for a minimum of five (5) years after the relationship ends in accordance with article 3(6) point (b) of the Law of 12 November 2004.
The Customer confirms that it and its beneficial owners are not subject to EU, UN, UK, or U.S. sanctions. SwyftCap may rely on external databases and reject transactions without notice where flags apply.
Provision of false or misleading information constitutes a material breach entitling SwyftCap to immediate termination and reporting to authorities.
The Customer shall notify SwyftCap in writing at least ten (10) Business Days before any change of control, directors, authorised signatories, or ultimate beneficial owners. SwyftCap may suspend Services pending refreshed KYB/EDD.
The Customer represents it is not established in, and will not route transactions to/from, jurisdictions subject to comprehensive sanctions or Financial Action Task Force ("FATF") "high-risk" or "call to action" lists, and will not engage in mixers/tumblers, darknet markets, ransomware facilitation, unlawful gambling, or activity reasonably suspected to evade sanctions or AML/CFT controls.
The Customer consents to SwyftCap collecting, transmitting, and receiving originator/beneficiary information under the Regulation (EU) 2023/1113 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 May 2023 on information accompanying transfers of funds and certain crypto-assets and amending Directive (EU) 2015/849 and to cross-border processing by verified third-party providers for that purpose.
After successful registration, the Customer will receive its unique reference number. The Customer may only access and use the Services after logging on to the Platform by entering its security details (inter alia its password).
The Customer is responsible for maintaining the security of all login credentials, API keys, and authentication devices. Any use of the Platform through such credentials shall be deemed the act of the Customer.
The Customer shall implement industry-standard security controls commensurate with its risk profile.

The Customer acknowledges that SwyftCap must provide system and transaction data to the CSSF and ESMA upon request and authorises such disclosure.
The Platform may rely on third-party software, nodes, network providers, or cloud services. SwyftCap disclaims liability for defects or outages in such third-party components save for SwyftCap's wilful misconduct or gross negligence.
Unless expressly agreed in a separate Service Level Agreement ("SLA") or required by Applicable Law, no uptime, latency, or settlement timeframe is guaranteed. Maintenance windows may be implemented without prior notice where security or compliance requires.
All transaction instructions must be submitted through the Platform or authenticated API calls. Every instruction received using valid credentials is conclusively deemed authorised.
SwyftCap shall execute transactions on a best-effort basis acting honestly, fairly, and professionally in accordance with MiCAR Articles 75–78.
A payment order shall be deemed to have been received by SwyftCap when it reaches its system. If the payment order is received outside of SwyftCap's business hours or on a non-Business Day, the payment order will be considered to have been received on the next Business Day. SwyftCap may establish a cut-off time at the end of each Business Day, and any payment order received after this cut-off time will be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day. Cut off times are available on SwyftCap's website.
Settlements are final and irrevocable once recorded on the relevant ledger or confirmed by a payment operator.
The Customer must notify SwyftCap within one (1) Business Day after the debit date of any error or discrepancy. Failure constitutes acceptance of the record. In the event of an unauthorised or incorrectly initiated payment transaction, SwyftCap will refund the full amount of the unauthorised transaction immediately, and in any case, no later than by the end of the following Business Day after receiving proper notification from the Customer of the unauthorised or incorrectly initiated transaction. Upon notification, SwyftCap will restore the Customer's Account to the state it would have been in had the unauthorised transaction not occurred. The credit value date for the Account will be no later than the date on which the amount was originally debited.
If there are reasonable grounds to suspect that a transaction conducted has been conducted in breach of the Agreement or as a fraudulent transaction, SwyftCap shall be entitled to suspend/withhold the payments of such transaction(s), pending enquiries and resolution of such issues. Prior to the suspension or withholding, the Customer will be informed of the action and the reasons, unless giving such information would compromise objectively security reasons or is prohibited by Applicable Law.
Conversions between fiat and Digital Assets use rates determined by SwyftCap at execution; quoted rates are indicative only.
A transaction is complete only after the number of blockchain confirmations specified by SwyftCap for that asset.
SwyftCap will maintain transaction records for at least five (5) years.
SwyftCap may execute through any liquidity provider of its choice acting per MiCAR Article 75. Best-execution obligations may differ from MiFID II standards.
Once settled on-chain or through banking systems, transactions are final and irreversible. SwyftCap is not liable for Customer address or counterparty errors.
If assets or funds are credited in error (including due to chain re-orgs or bank recalls), the Customer shall promptly cooperate to reverse or return them. SwyftCap may debit any Account, freeze withdrawals, or set-off to recover erroneous credits.
On suspension or termination, SwyftCap may cancel open instructions, convert assets to a common currency, and net reciprocal claims, with any net amount payable by the owing Party.
SwyftCap also reserves the right to refuse to make transactions where it is reasonably suspected of non-compliance, sanctions breaches, or criminal conduct. SwyftCap shall notify the Customer accordingly, unless giving such information would compromise objectively security reasons or is prohibited by Applicable Law.

The Customer's Account may be held in either Euro, GBP, USD and/or CAD as named accounts.
The Customer's wallet may be held in either USDC, EUROC, BTC and ETH.
SwyftCap relies on its banking providers to safeguard the Customer funds, as well as to assist with other kind of services, in compliance with article 14 (1) a) of the Law of 2009 and article 70 of MiCAR. Upon receipt of funds on behalf of the Customer, SwyftCap shall electronically acknowledge the receipt of the amount so received and the Customer's Account balance will be updated.
All Customer assets will be held in segregated accounts distinct from SwyftCap's own assets in accordance with article 14 (1) a) of the Law of 2009 and article 70 of MiCAR.
SwyftCap may appoint regulated sub-custodians, wallet providers, or credit institutions (together, "Custody Providers"). SwyftCap exercises due skill, care, and diligence in selection and periodic review. Subject to that duty, the Customer bears the risk of a Custody Provider's default or insolvency.
SwyftCap maintains institutional-grade key-management protocols including multi-signature and cold storage. It is not responsible for losses arising from network attacks or cryptographic failures beyond reasonable control.
No interest is paid and no trust or deposit relationship arises.
Periodic statements will be provided electronically; discrepancies must be reported within five (5) Business Days.
Segregation does not guarantee full recovery in the event of sub-custodian insolvency. SwyftCap has no fiduciary duty beyond MiCAR Article 67(4).
SwyftCap may maintain custody insurance but is not obliged to do so and makes no representation as to coverage.
To secure any present or future obligations of the Customer, SwyftCap has a general lien and security interest over assets and funds held for the Customer, including the right to withhold delivery, sell, convert, or set-off proceeds after notice where legally permissible.
SwyftCap may defer or stage withdrawals where (i) blockchain conditions (congestion, forks, protocol events) or (ii) legal/compliance checks (sanctions/AML, asset provenance) reasonably require. SwyftCap shall act honestly, fairly, and professionally (MiCAR Art. 76).
SwyftCap is not obliged to support every token, network, airdrop, staking, or fork. SwyftCap may decide, at its discretion, whether and how to support or distribute assets arising from forks/airdrops, and may convert or decline to support assets that present operational, legal, or sanctions risk.
Customer assets will not be pledged or rehypothecated except with the Customer's explicit written consent and subject to Applicable Law.
In an insolvency of a Custody Provider or correspondent bank, recoveries (if any) attributable to pooled customer holdings will be allocated pro rata. Costs of recovery (including legal and administrative costs) may be deducted before distribution.

SwyftCap may set off fees or liabilities against funds or assets held for the Customer.
SwyftCap may pass through regulatory levies or network fees incurred in connection with execution or safeguarding.

SwyftCap may use third-party screening tools; the Customer consents to cross-border processing with adequate safeguards under GDPR Articles 45–46.
Services are execution-only. Nothing herein is investment, legal, tax, or accounting advice.
Digital-Asset markets are highly volatile and may exhibit limited liquidity; the Customer accepts risks of partial fills, slippage, gaps, and inability to execute or liquidate.
Distributed-ledger networks may suffer forks, bugs, validator failures, reorganisations, or congestion that delay or prevent settlement.
Exchanges, liquidity providers, banks, and sub-custodians may default or become insolvent. The Customer bears such risks to the fullest extent permitted by law, save for SwyftCap's fraud, wilful misconduct, or gross negligence.
Changes in law may affect valuation, transferability, or legality of Digital Assets or Services. The Customer is solely responsible for its tax/regulatory obligations.
Withdrawals or transfers may be suspended for operational or regulatory reasons; such suspension is not a default by SwyftCap.
SwyftCap is not liable for losses arising from systemic market failures or protocol-level events beyond reasonable control.
Orders may be delayed, rejected, or cancelled due to fraud, AML/CFT, sanctions, or market-abuse controls. Such actions are protective and do not constitute breach.

For a series of connected events, this cap applies to all related claims collectively.
Nothing limits liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, gross negligence, or liability that cannot be excluded under Luxembourg law.

Confidentiality does not limit SwyftCap's duty to share information with competent authorities under Applicable Law.
SwyftCap may appoint sub-processors (including for AML screening, fraud prevention, custody technology, and cloud). SwyftCap shall impose data-protection obligations equivalent to those under this Agreement.
SwyftCap will notify the Customer without undue delay of a personal-data breach affecting the Customer's data, consistent with GDPR Articles 33–34, and may provide rolling updates while investigations are ongoing.

The Privacy Policy provides additional information on the processing of personal data by SwyftCap in the context of the Agreement.
SwyftCap is bound by strict professional secrecy obligations under article 30 of the Law of 2009 and article 100 of MiCAR.

SwyftCap may suspend Services pre-emptively where continuation may reasonably endanger financial-crime compliance or system integrity.
SwyftCap maintains business-continuity and disaster-recovery arrangements proportionate to its risk profile. During an incident, SwyftCap may prioritise critical functions (safeguarding, security, regulatory reporting) over non-critical functions.

SwyftCap may terminate this Agreement or any Service immediately, without liability, if: (a) the Customer materially breaches this Agreement; (b) required by law or directive of a competent authority (including CSSF/ESMA); (c) the Customer fails to co-operate with AML/CFT requests or is reasonably suspected of illicit activity; (d) the Customer becomes insolvent or ceases business; or (e) continuation presents unacceptable legal, operational, or reputational risk.
The Customer may terminate the Agreement without reason and without recourse to the courts at any time by giving a thirty (30) days' prior written notice, subject to settlement of all transactions, fees, and liabilities. Such termination shall take effect on the first Business Day following the end of the thirty (30) days' prior notice.
Upon termination: (a) all outstanding obligations and payments become immediately due; (b) SwyftCap may retain assets/funds as reasonably necessary to satisfy unpaid amounts or legal retention requirements; (c) SwyftCap shall return remaining balances after deducting fees, any outstanding amounts owed to SwyftCap and lawful set-offs.

SwyftCap may terminate immediately if required by a competent authority or if continuation would contravene Applicable Law.
SwyftCap shall retain records for five (5) years or longer if mandated by law and may withhold funds subject to pending investigations.
Following termination, SwyftCap may convert Digital Assets to fiat or another asset it reasonably selects to facilitate settlement, and may deduct reasonable costs and fees before returning any net balance. The funds in your Account will be returned to you within ten Business Days of your request for termination, provided we have all the information required and nothing prevents such return.
The Customer shall provide information reasonably required to complete reconciliations, audits, or regulatory reports post-termination.
The Agreement has been made available to the Customer prior to its registration with SwyftCap and its use of the Services and remains available on the Platform.
SwyftCap may amend the Agreement by electronic notice or publication of the amended Agreement on the Platform. Unless a shorter period is required by law, amendments take effect five (5) Business Days after notice. The continued use by the Customer following the notification of such changes or the absence of any objection thereto constitutes acceptance with the amended Agreement.
Where necessary to ensure compliance with Applicable Law, CSSF requirements, or security standards, SwyftCap may implement changes without prior notice and will notify the Customer as soon as reasonably practicable.
SwyftCap will maintain records of each version and make prior versions available to the CSSF or the Customer on reasonable request.
If the Customer objects to an amendment, it shall notify SwyftCap within five (5) Business Days by email to [email protected].

The provision of the Services and the Agreement are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Luxembourg, excluding to the largest extent legally permitted by law any provisions of Luxembourg private international law as well as any provision of law that would result in the application of the law of a different jurisdiction. This shall be without prejudice to the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of another Member State of the EU that would be applicable in the absence of the present paragraph.
Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, shall be submitted to the Courts of the District of Luxembourg-City (Luxembourg).
Before proceedings, the Parties shall seek amicable resolution where appropriate. The Customer acknowledges the CSSF's out-of-court complaint mechanism as described in the Notices section.
