2. Buypass Payment Services
2.1 Regulations and Licensing
Buypass Payment offers payment services to Merchants, such as sports clubs, associations, and other clubs. The service operates under an electronic money structure regulated by the Financial Institutions Act (§ 2-4, second paragraph)
2.2 About the Electronic Money Account
An electronic money account will be created for you upon establishing a customer relationship. This account can be used to purchase goods and services at Merchants. Essentially, the money you spend will be transferred through your electronic money account before being received by the Merchant. This transaction is typically done in a single transaction, leaving no balance on your account.
If there is an incorrect debit or credit to your electronic money account, Buypass Payment is responsible for correcting the error by adjusting your account. In case of any issues, Buypass Payment can suspend payment services immediately and set a specific date to transfer the outstanding electronic money to the bank account of the rightful owner.
2.3 Payment Methods
Payment can be made with Visa/MasterCard, Vipps, invoice, eInvoice, and Avtalegiro.
2.3.1 Payment Cards – Visa/MasterCard
Buypass Payment is approved according to the card companies' data security standard PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). This standard imposes extensive requirements on the data security surrounding the handling of transactions and the storage and use of card information.
You can store a payment card to be used for later payments on NIF´s or other merchant’s websites/services that accept the use of the Sports Payment Solution. Buypass Payment processes card transactions concerning the purchase and redemption of electronic value. We need the card number, the payment card's expiration date, and the CVC/CVV code to complete a card transaction.
Following privacy legislation, we keep your card number and other data confidential and encrypted. You have the option to delete your stored card information at any time.
2.3.2 Digital Invoice
Buypass Payment sends invoices to your online bank on behalf of Merchants. You can receive the invoice via email, eInvoice, or Avtalegiro.
eInvoice and Avtalegiro are electronic invoice services where you, as the recipient of an invoice, can have it delivered directly to your online bank. You activate the services in your online bank. You must accept eInvoice in the online bank for it to be paid, while Avtalegiro is paid automatically. It is up to our Merchants whether they want to offer digital invoices and whether they are delivered to the online bank.
2.4 Processing and Storage of Payment Information
Buypass Payment is the data controller for stored payment cards and answers on whether you are a Politically Exposed Person. It processes and stores this data to fulfil the agreement with you and satisfy the requirements of the Anti-Money Laundering regulations.
