Terms of Service
These terms govern access to and use of the software, documentation and related services provided by Metaverse Trading Ltd. By integrating or using any of our products you agree to them. Where a merchant has signed a separate agreement with us, that agreement prevails over these terms to the extent they conflict.
1. Who we are and what we provide
METAVERSE TRADING LTD ("the Company", "we", "us") is a software company registered in England and Wales under company number 16644748, with its registered office at 71 to 75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ, United Kingdom.
We provide non-custodial software. We do not hold fiat currency or cryptocurrency on behalf of anyone, we do not exchange currencies, we do not operate payment accounts and we do not give financial, investment or tax advice. Conversion between fiat and crypto, and any identity verification that conversion requires, is carried out by licensed third-party providers under their own terms. Custody of crypto assets rests with the person who controls the wallet, never with us.
2. Eligibility and onboarding
Our products are offered to businesses. Before we enable a merchant integration we carry out know-your-business checks and may decline, suspend or end access where those checks are not satisfied. You must be at least 18 years old and authorised to bind the business you represent.
3. Acceptable use
You agree not to use our products to:
- launder money, evade sanctions or finance terrorism;
- offer services to end users in jurisdictions where doing so is unlawful;
- disable, bypass or weaken our security controls, including signature verification, sanctions screening and time locks;
- probe, scan or test our systems without our written permission, other than through our coordinated disclosure process;
- misrepresent your identity, your business or the nature of the transactions you process.
4. Merchant responsibilities
Merchants remain responsible for their own customers: for any know-your-customer and anti-money-laundering obligations that apply to them, for reconciling webhook events against their own ledger, for the security of their API keys and webhook endpoints, and for complying with the laws of every jurisdiction in which they operate. We provide tools that help, such as an audit log, sanctions screening and threshold alerts, but the regulatory perimeter is the merchant's.
5. Fees
Any fees for our products are set out in the merchant agreement or order form you have signed with us. Fees charged by third-party providers, and network fees on the blockchains we support, are outside our control and are not ours.
6. Intellectual property and licence
We grant merchants a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use our software development kits, checkout components and documentation for the purpose of integrating our products. Where we make source code available under an open source licence, that licence governs your use of it. Everything else remains our property. You may not remove notices, resell access, or present our products as your own except through the white-label features we provide for that purpose.
7. Third-party providers
Card processing, fiat settlement and identity verification are performed by licensed providers. Their availability, pricing and decisions, including any decision to decline a transaction or a customer, are theirs and not ours. We are not a party to the contract between a provider and the person using it.
8. Availability and changes
We work to keep our services available and will give merchants reasonable notice of planned maintenance and of changes that affect an integration. We may modify or discontinue features, and will not make changes that reduce the security of fund flows without notice.
9. Disclaimers
The software is provided "as is". To the fullest extent permitted by law we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that blockchain networks or third-party providers will operate without interruption or error.
10. Limitation of liability
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Subject to that, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of data or loss of crypto assets caused by the acts of third parties, by the loss of private keys or by blockchain network events. Our total liability arising out of or in connection with these terms in any twelve-month period is limited to the fees you paid us in that period, or £100, whichever is greater.
11. Termination
Either party may end a merchant relationship on written notice as set out in the merchant agreement. We may suspend access immediately where we reasonably believe our products are being used in breach of section 3, or where a legal or regulatory obligation requires it. Because we never hold funds, termination does not affect any assets, which remain in the wallets that control them.
12. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with them, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer protections that apply where you live.
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The effective date at the top shows the current version. Material changes will be notified to the contact address we hold for each merchant before they take effect. Continued use after that date means you accept the updated terms.
