What does this mean for you? When you use our Service we will require you to provide your name/surname, date of birth, nationality, residence address, Turkish ID number or identity number for foreigners, phone number, email address, and other necessary information, which may be required from the competent Turkish authorities as per Turkish laws from time to time that will allow us to identify you.
We may require you to provide documentation in a format acceptable to us. Such documentation may include a copy of your identity card, passport, or other government issued photo identification documents; documents proving where your residence is and evidence of the source of the funds you are transferring with us, among others. We may also contact you if we have additional questions or further requirements of information before we can complete your Transfer.
During the application, Birleşik Ödeme and TransferGo will carry out the verification process, using the identity information (name, surname, date of birth, nationality, identity number for Turkish citizens, foreign identity number for foreigners) you provide to us and we reserve the right to access various government and private databases to verify your information.
In light of the above mentioned explanations, I fully agree and accept that I give my consent to BÖH and TransferGo in order to have my identification verified and have my private data recorded by BÖH as “payment service provider” pursuant to Private Data Protection Law Numbered 6698 and relevant legislation.

6. Description of the Service
The Service enables the transmission of funds paid to us in Turkish Lira (TRY) from Turkey to recipients (“Recipient(s)”) located in other countries and paid out in a currency other than TRY (a “Transaction”). Funds are transmitted to Recipients via electronic funds transfer, wire transfer or other electronic methods. The Service, as described herein, may be amended by us at any time, upon notice. Moreover, we retain full discretion to refuse to accept any user and/or to complete any Transaction at any time.

7. Payment Methods
We only accept payments for Transactions via funds transfer, wire transfer or other electronic methods from a TRY denominated Turkish bank account in your name. No other payment methods are accepted, including cash, mailed check, or electronic check. Once your Transaction order has been completed by you in the Platform and you have been verified, we will provide you with appropriate details to complete a local bank transfer to our bank account.
We will make sure the money is being sent directly from your own Turkish bank account in Turkey. If the payment is sent from someone else’s bank account, we will not accept it and we will refund the funds to the bank account from which the transfer was initiated and your Transaction will be considered unfunded.
The payment must correspond to the total amount of the Transaction, including our fees and expenses specified in receipts and similar documents mentioned in this Agreement, issued for each and every payment. All expenses and fees mentioned in this Agreement and specified in receipts and similar documents will be listed. In the event that there are differences between this amount and the one established during the Transaction, including our fees and expenses mentioned in this Agreement, Transaction will not be processed and will be cancelled. Every new Transaction order submitted on the Platform will be inactive until we have received the payment for the Transaction. Thereafter, we will convert the funds into the foreign currency and remit them to the Recipient, once the agreed fees in this Agreement have been deducted.
When setting up a Transaction, you must ensure that the information you provide is correct and complete. I agree and accept that BÖH and/or TransferGo will not be responsible for money sent to the wrong Recipient as a result of incorrect information provided by me.

8. Exchange Rates
We make reasonable efforts to match transactions at exchange rates aligned to the mid-market rate at the global currency markets. To do this, TransferGo relies on aggregated third party information sources (including exchange rates under licence from XE.COM INC (“XE”, https://www.xe.com/ and Reuters (www.reuters.com). We do not guarantee that the rates match any particular benchmark source at any given time.

9. Payment Limits
Transactions might be limited by us, depending on the available Payment Methods or the one chosen by you. Additionally, we might request further information and documentation when you wish to transfer a certain amount of money, in a single or aggregated transfer.

10. Cancellation and refunds of Transactions
You may cancel your Transaction for a full refund, provided that the Transaction amount has not yet been converted into foreign exchange in accordance with your order. For the avoidance of doubt, once the Transaction Amount has been converted into the foreign currency and transferred to the Recipient, the user cannot cancel the Transaction. Refunds: If for some reason your Transaction cannot be completed, you will be informed of this and we will refund your funds by depositing them back into your bank account from which you originally initiated the payment.

11. Transaction Fees
We charge a fee on every Transaction. Fees relating to the Transaction are fully visible to you before you accept the Transaction. The Transaction Fee is deducted from the Transaction Amount prior to conversion. Transaction Fees do not include any fees that your bank or the Recipient’s bank may charge. Those fees may be deducted from the delivered amount to the Recipient (in the case of Recipient’s bank requests for extra fees and/or charges).

12. My Obligations
I agree and accept that I will fulfil my following obligations diligently:
12.1 I am responsible for ensuring the payment details are accurate at all times, which I provide to BÖH and/or TransferGo. Once payment instructions have been provided by the user, Transactions cannot be reversed and I accept that BÖH and/or TransferGo will not be liable in any way for any loss I suffer as a result of a Transaction being carried out in accordance with my instructions.

12.2 I am responsible for determining whether or not I should send money to a particular Recipient, as BÖH and/or TransferGo do not provide me with any fraud protection. Once payment instructions have been provided by the user and executed by BÖH, Transactions cannot be reversed and BÖH and TransferGo will not be liable in any way for any loss I suffer as a result of a Transaction being carried out in accordance with my instructions.

12.3 If I notice an error in either the payment sent or received as a result of using the Services, then I will immediately notify BÖH at info@birlesikodeme.com. If I become aware that the Recipient has received a payment over and above what I was expecting, I will immediately notify BÖH of this so that arrangements can be made for me to return any overpayment.

12.4 I agree that I will not use the Services for any unlawful activity and BÖH reserves the right to investigate any suspicious activity or in response to any complaints or reported violations.
