IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE YOUR ACCESS OR USE OF THE APP AND THE SITE.
These Terms of Use shall take effect when you click on the “I Accept” button or check box presented with these Terms of Use or, if earlier when you use any part of the Site or the App. You represent that you are lawfully able to agree to these Terms of Use.
You confirm that any person who uses your login credentials is authorised to access and use the App and/or Site on your behalf.

Products and services
CardsPal and CardsPal merchants (“Merchants”) may offer products and/or services for sale through promotions, discounts, rebates and/or other offers (“Deals”) on the App. You acknowledge that the Deals, products and/or services are subject to availability and any further terms and conditions as may be set out on the deal page.
You agree to comply with all applicable terms and conditions and instructions of the listed Deals, including deal page terms and instructions on purchase and redemption (as applicable). Neither CardsPal nor the Merchants shall be liable for losses arising from your failure to comply with the applicable terms and instructions.
Should you decide to purchase a Deal from a Merchant (other than CardsPal), your contract of sale is between you and the respective Merchant and will be governed by the respective Merchant’s terms and conditions and any other applicable terms. You acknowledge that we are not a party to this contract and transaction, and we accept no contractual obligation in this regard.
If you are purchasing any Deals from CardsPal, you acknowledge and agree that such sale shall be governed by these Terms of Use and any applicable terms and conditions relating to the sale (such as the deal page terms). In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms of Use and any deal page terms, the Terms of Use shall prevail to the extent of such inconsistency.
You further agree and acknowledge that:
– all offers and sales are subject to the Merchant’s acceptance of the order at its sole discretion. A Merchant may, at its sole discretion, refuse to process or reject your order without giving any reasons for doing so;
– we do not guarantee that CardsPal or a Merchant will complete a transaction;
– unless expressly stated otherwise, CardsPal is not responsible for Deals, products and/or services offered and sold by Merchants on the App;
– while a Merchant endeavours to provide an accurate description of their products and/or services, neither CardsPal nor the Merchant warrant that such description is accurate or free from error; and
– we also do not warrant that a product or service offered by a Merchant is fit for purpose and we do not guarantee the fitness, condition or quality of the products or services.
A sale is not complete until you receive a confirmation from us that your transaction has been accepted. Do note that there may be unforeseen circumstances in which CardsPal and/or a Merchant is unable to process an order despite a successful confirmation of purchase.
CardsPal reserves the right to cancel, reverse or reject any transaction (including but not limited to preventing or restricting your use of the App and/or Site) if there is any suspicion of fraudulent, illicit, unlawful and/or illegal activities being conducted.

Cancellations and Refunds
Please note that Deals once purchased are non-refundable, and vouchers issued in respect of the purchased Deals cannot be exchanged for cash. Any requests for cancellations and refunds shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of CardsPal and/or the Merchant’s. CardsPal’s decision on this shall be final.
