These terms of service (“Terms” or “Agreement”) constitute binding terms between you and iCronPay (“Service Provider,” “we,” “our,” or “iCronPay”), which operate the services, including any content or information provided as part of this website or related services, as described below, and individuals or entities (“Contracting Party,” “User,” “Merchant,” “you,” or “your”) using such services (each a “Party,” collectively the “Parties”).
By accessing, registering for, or using our services, you agree to comply with and be legally bound by these Terms.
1. Provision of Services
iCronPay (“we,” “us,” “the Company”) provides the Contracting Party (“you,” “Merchant,” “Customer”) with access to a web-based platform that enables the Contracting Party to accept virtual currency assets as payment for goods and services it provides, and these Terms are established to describe the terms governing the use of the platform.
The Contracting Party is a legally existing business entity and/or incorporated company that has been providing goods and services to its customers and seeks to settle the virtual currency assets it receives in fiat currency (or virtual assets, if applicable).
After creating an account, undergoing appropriate due diligence, and formally registering at least one fiat currency settlement location, the Contracting Party will be able to receive virtual assets from its customers and convert these virtual assets into fiat currency (or other virtual assets, as applicable).
The Contracting Party authorizes us to receive, temporarily hold, exchange, and pay virtual assets on their behalf, deduct applicable fees, and undertake any and all actions we deem necessary to provide the services to you and comply with any applicable laws and these general terms.
Any payments made by the Contracting Party’s customers to us shall be deemed similar to payments/donations made directly to the Contracting Party. We will exclusively collect virtual assets into your account on your behalf. The Contracting Party remains the owner of the virtual assets we hold for you and on your behalf.
The Contracting Party instructs iCronPay to use iCronPay’s software and application programming interface (API) to convert the payment of the purchase price into virtual assets on behalf of the Contracting Party.
The Contracting Party instructs iCronPay to engage one or more third-party providers to convert the virtual assets into fiat currency (or other virtual assets, as applicable). These third-party providers shall also accept the fiat currency amounts (or virtual assets, as applicable) on behalf of the Contracting Party into their accounts.
iCronPay will charge a fee, which is a percentage of the total amount of each transaction carried out within the platform, deducted from the amount transferred in fiat currency to the Contracting Party.
The Contracting Party is responsible for any obligations regarding customer due diligence and the source of funds and related procurements as per its jurisdictional requirements. While iCronPay does perform additional screening below certain thresholds, such due diligence is for its internal risk management purposes only and is not intended to ensure compliance with any rules and regulations that any Merchant might be obligated to follow.
The Contracting Party may issue refunds to its customers through the iCronPay software. However, regarding payments made to the Contracting Party in virtual assets, any legal disputes arise solely between the Contracting Party and its customers. We are not a party to the relationship between the Contracting Party and its customers who use virtual assets for payments. We do not accept any inquiries, correspondence, requests, and/or complaints, nor do we assume responsibility regarding the quality, legality, safety, delivery, or any other aspects related to your services, products, events, and/or payments and/or donations related to the relationship between the Contracting Party and its customers. Any disputes between the Contracting Party and its customers shall be resolved solely between them.
Without prejudice to our interests, iCronPay shall not control, monitor, evaluate, authorize, and/or supervise the activities of the Contracting Party and their own customer purchases. The foregoing does not prevent us at any time from investigating, suspending, limiting, or terminating the provision of services to the Contracting Party and the right to refuse to complete, block, or reverse transactions initiated by the Contracting Party’s customers, if we have reason to believe it violates these terms or there is otherwise a potential risk to us, our Contracting Parties, or the public’s legitimate interests.
2. Customer Registration
To use our services, the Contracting Party must register on our platform.
Upon registration and during the onboarding registration process on the platform, the Contracting Party will need to provide any and all information about their business or any other type of information that iCronPay requires.
To verify the identity of the Contracting Party, assess business risk, and comply with applicable laws and regulations, we will ask for any and all necessary documents to register on our platform. We may also obtain information from third parties and identity verification services.
We reserve the right to refuse any account registration for any reason, including but not limited to the lack of information or conclusions drawn from the analysis of any specific information, or to later close any account at our sole discretion, including but not limited to if the provided information is untrue, inaccurate, incomplete, or if we suspect a breach of these terms.
The Contracting Party will then be required to expressly agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.
By creating an account and/or simply using iCronPay’s platform and website, you agree that you have read, understood, and accepted all these Terms contained in this Agreement.

Unless the document permits or iCronPay expressly agrees in writing, the Contracting Party is not allowed to build or mirror any part of the services.
iCronPay reserves the right to monitor the use of all users (through audits or otherwise) during the term of this agreement to ensure compliance with these terms. Any audit may be conducted by iCronPay or by a third party authorized by iCronPay. If any audit reveals that any password has been provided to non-platform users, iCronPay has the right to immediately disable any such password and promptly inform the Contracting Party of such findings and circumstances.
If any Contracting Party uses the services without authorization, iCronPay reserves the right to deny the Contracting Party or its users access to the services by blocking the IP address of the Contracting Party or its users without any prior notice. If iCronPay suspects or knows that the Contracting Party is or has been using the services for unauthorized, fraudulent, or illegal purposes, iCronPay may share relevant information related to such activities with the competent authorities, regulatory bodies, or law enforcement officers based on its legal obligations.

5. Billing
5.1 General Provisions
An invoice is created when the Contracting Party requests payment from its customer (“Contracting Party’s Customer”) for goods or services. The invoice has a due date defined when created, which determines the time window for accepting payments. The Contracting Party and the Contracting Party’s Customer can cancel the invoice at any time and make it unpayable.
The due date is set based on the payment configuration. The default values for invoices created through e-commerce integration or the iCronPay crypto platform can be found at this link. For invoices created through the iCronPay crypto platform, the due date can be configured by the Contracting Party.
The Contracting Party’s Customer can create and cancel as many payment attempts as necessary to complete the purchase of goods or services before the invoice expires or is canceled. For a payment to be considered valid, it must be completed before the invoice expires or is canceled.
If the invoice is canceled or expires, any pending payment will also be closed, making it impossible to pay for goods and services.
5.2 Payments and Transactions
Payment is defined by the amount, currency, network, and exchange rate due date. The payable amount is calculated based on exchange rates provided by our exchange suppliers, which may include an additional spread depending on the type of crypto asset, currency pair, volatility, liquidity, and the transaction amount.
Payments are considered open upon creation and expire when the exchange rate is no longer valid. If the exchange rate expires, the Contracting Party’s Customer can create a new payment unless the invoice has been closed or canceled. The effective period for the exchange rate can be found at this link.
For a payment to be effective and participate in the payment, the blockchain transaction must be confirmed and finalized within the effective period of the exchange rate, in the defined currency, and on the specific network.
The payment is marked complete when an amount sent via one or more effective transactions is sufficient to complete the payment and sent before the exchange rate expires. Suppose the invoice expires, is canceled, or the payment is canceled; in that case, the payment will be marked incomplete.
Underpayment occurs when the Contracting Party’s Customer sends less than the full amount required to mark the invoice as paid. Since the invoice is not fully paid or completed, the funds are not sent to the Contracting Party. The Contracting Party’s Customer can create more transactions to complete the payment or request a refund according to the refund policy described in Section 6.4 below.
Overpayment occurs when the Contracting Party’s Customer sends more than the full amount required to mark the invoice as paid. When the payment is confirmed, the funding will be transferred to the Contracting Party. In this case, the Contracting Party’s Customer can request a refund of the excess amount according to the refund policy described in Section 6.4 below.
Expired payment occurs when a payment is detected after the invoice or payment expiration date. iCronPay will continue to monitor the address currency and payment chain for 6 months. During this period, each confirmed transaction can be refunded individually according to the refund policy described in Section 6.4 below.
Payment cancelation occurs when the Contracting Party’s Customer cancels the payment or the invoice expires or is canceled while processing. Sent and confirmed amounts can be refunded individually according to the refund policy mentioned in Section 6.4 below.
5.3 Failed Payments
Payment failure refers to instances where the payment transactions fail due to reasons beyond the exceptions outlined in Section 5.2. Generally, these are caused by invalid or rejected transactions.
6. Refund Terms
6.1 General Provisions
To request a refund, the Contracting Party’s customer must contact the Contracting Party directly in accordance with the contract terms stipulated in the agreement or terms accepted by both parties.
The information provided regarding the purchase issue must be truthful and reliable. False and inaccurate information may render the refund ineligible. Refunds cannot be processed if the Contracting Party cannot correctly identify the customer or the transaction.
The Contracting Party’s customer is responsible for keeping records of all communications. This includes blogs, emails, tracking numbers, delivery confirmations, prior refund proofs, and replacement receipts. When the buyer submits these documents, they must be clearly legible. If necessary, the Contracting Party’s customer should use bold text to highlight relevant information. iCronPay recommends providing clear and accurate evidence to the Contracting Party. Any illegible text or data submitted will be considered incomplete and unacceptable for review.
The Contracting Party’s customer should be able to collaborate in a timely manner with the Contracting Party and iCronPay.
iCronPay may facilitate the refund on behalf of the Contracting Party. The Contracting Party may decide to refund part or all of the initial purchase.
Once the Contracting Party initiates a refund, the appropriate amount will be sent through the iCronPay platform.
The Contracting Party’s customer will provide the address to which the refund will be sent. The Contracting Party’s customer must be absolutely certain that their address is entered correctly. Missing a single digit may result in the refund being sent to another address. Since transactions are irreversible, it is crucial to double-check all details. iCronPay is not responsible for any losses, damages, costs, expenses, or similar issues resulting from errors, mistakes, or failures of the Contracting Party’s customer.
The refund process can only begin once the detected payment transaction has been confirmed.
iCronPay will be responsible for executing any refunds resulting from incomplete transactions, as mentioned in the Payment Exceptions in Section 5.2 above.
6.2 Contracting Party Refund Policy
iCronPay is not responsible for the Contracting Party’s refund policy. We recommend that the Contracting Party provides clear refund policies to their customers (e.g., exceptions, advisories, specific terms).
Refunds are available within 3 months from the conclusion of the payment.
If the Contracting Party’s current cumulative balance is not higher than the refund amount at the time of issuance, the refund cannot be processed.
The minimum refund amount corresponds to the minimum possible amount in fiat currency. This amount is defined based on the currency and network selected by the Contracting Party’s customer for payment. You can check the minimum refund limit here.
The refund amount will be defined in the Contracting Party’s store currency (or display currency) and sent in cryptocurrency based on the defined exchange rate at the time of the refund.
iCronPay is exempt from the obligation to refund transactions due to mistakes related to the use of incorrect tokens or return the transaction fees for such transactions directly on the Lightning Network.
iCronPay can also be exempt from refunding transactions sent to addresses unrelated to the payment attempts created for each invoice.
If the refund is approved, iCronPay will send an email notification to the Contracting Party’s customer explaining the refund process and asking for an address to which the refund can be sent.
Once the refund is completed, iCronPay will send an email notification to the Contracting Party’s customer confirming the refund.
6.3 Recommended Resolution
For complete payments, here are several ways to resolve issues:
Decide on an amicable solution. This is always the preferred option for both parties. The Contracting Party’s customer should resolve issues directly with the Contracting Party per the return/refund policy. The Contracting Party’s customer is responsible for keeping track of deadlines set by the Contracting Party. The Contracting Party may require the Contracting Party’s customer to take certain actions. Failure to meet the merchant’s conditions may result in the customer not receiving a refund.
Opt for special refunds. The Contracting Party can choose to appeal for different types of refunds, such as undocumented refunds.
6.4 Refund Amount
When considering a refund, iCronPay will calculate the amount to be refunded and compare it to the minimum refund threshold for currency and payment chain. You can check the minimum refund limit here.
For refunds, iCronPay will send an email notification to the Contracting Party’s customer explaining the refund process and requesting an address to which iCronPay can send the refund.
During the effective period of the payment, all sent amounts (transactions) are accumulated. After the payment is completed, the total received amount will be compared and confirmed against the minimum refund threshold mentioned in Section 1 above.
If there is an overpayment, the refund amount is calculated based on the difference between the received amount and the expected amount.
In the case of underpayment, the refund amount is the total amount sent by the transaction. If the transaction is delayed, the refund amount is equivalent to the amount received for that transaction.
In any case, the confirmed amount must comply with the refund threshold mentioned in Section 1 above.
iCronPay is exempt from refunding directly on the Lightning Network and from returning the transaction fees of such transactions.
Once the refund is completed, iCronPay will send an email notification to the Contracting Party’s customer confirming the refund.
6.5 Pending Refund Due to Negative Balance
If issuing a refund to the Contracting Party’s customer results in a negative balance, the refund will be pending until the Contracting Party’s balance is reconciled, and the refund amount is made available. However, we reserve the right to allow the Contracting Party to have a temporary negative balance under certain pre-approved conditions. This allowance can only be provided on a case-by-case basis and only after explicit approval considering the Contracting Party’s past settlement records and good standing. Even in such special cases, a negative balance below -500 EUR is never allowed.
7. Suspension of Access
iCronPay may suspend access to the services for the Contracting Party and its customers in the following cases:
iCronPay suspects any abuse of services or breach of these terms or documentation; or
The Contracting Party fails to pay any amounts due to iCronPay before the payment due date.
iCronPay will notify the Contracting Party or affected users as soon as possible after the suspension of services.
If the suspension is due to suspected abuse of services or breach of these terms, iCronPay will take measures to investigate the issue and may, at its discretion, restore or permanently suspend access. If iCronPay deems it appropriate to permanently suspend access for all customers of the Contracting Party, it will notify the Contracting Party in writing, and these terms shall terminate immediately upon receipt of such notice.
For suspension under item b), access to the services will be restored immediately upon iCronPay’s receipt of full payment and settlement of funds.
The subscription fee must be paid during any suspension period, even if the Contracting Party and/or its customers cannot access the services.
iCronPay reserves the right to suspend use of the services for any reason related to service security or protection of user interests or suspected abuse, unauthorized, or fraudulent use, but this does not necessarily mean termination of this agreement.
iCronPay shall immediately notify the Contracting Party and its customers in writing directly or through the Contracting Party, either via SMS, email, or mail, and where possible, will give advanced notice of its intention to suspend access to services and the basis for its decision.
8. Security
To access iCronPay crypto services, the Contracting Party will need to create or provide security details, including a password. The Contracting Party is responsible for ensuring the security of their electronic devices used to access iCronPay crypto services and maintaining adequate security and control over any and all security details used to access iCronPay crypto services.
The Contracting Party must make every effort to prevent unauthorized use of our services, their account, or any documents. If the Contracting Party becomes aware of any security details being disclosed or any fraud or attempted fraud or other security incidents (including cybersecurity attacks) affecting them and/or iCronPay (collectively “Security Breaches”), the Contracting Party must notify iCronPay as soon as possible via email and continue to provide accurate and up-to-date information during the Security Breach period.
The Contracting Party must take any measures reasonably required by iCronPay to mitigate, manage, or report any Security Breaches. Failure to provide timely Security Breach notification may be considered when determining the appropriate resolution of the issue.
We assume no responsibility and will not remain liable to you for any acts and/or omissions that may lead to Security Breaches at third-party service providers or exchanges connected to the interface. These acts or omissions should include handling any information or personal data belonging to you. The user assures that the company will not be held liable for any acts and/or omissions leading third-party service providers to make any assurances to the company based on any contractual agreements between the parties. The company shall not be liable for any losses or damages suffered by the user due to any such Security Breaches or other forms of operational or technical failures that may fall under the responsibility of third-party service providers and/or exchanges.
9. Customer Due Diligence and Anti-Money Laundering Procedures
To use our services, the Contracting Party must undergo a mandatory due diligence process known as “Know Your Business” (hereinafter “KYB”). To comply with relevant Anti-Money Laundering (hereinafter “AML”) and Combatting the Financing of Terrorism (hereinafter “CFT”) regulatory requirements, the company may require additional information, documents, and customer data to verify the merchant’s identity, nature of business, and assess their prospective business risk.
The company may use external third-party service providers to conduct KYB and AML-CFT checks to fulfill its statutory obligations and process customer data. The customer should not hold the company liable for any losses or damages resulting from any data loss, malpractice, or any other acts or omissions of third-party service providers.
Every merchant must undergo at least one KYB process. The information, business data, and/or documents list requested by the company to fulfill the KYB process may be amended based on any new regulatory requirements applicable to the company. The company reserves the right to request additional information, data, or documents from merchants at its discretion.
Merchants will also undergo suitability processes to ensure their business profile is appropriately suited to use the services provided by the company. The company may also analyze merchant interactions to identify suspicions of money laundering and terrorist financing activities.
The company may impose restrictions on services provided to the user based on suitability processes experienced by the user. The company shall not bear any responsibility for any losses or damages resulting from restrictions imposed on services provided to the user. Based on the suitability process, considering service usage, the amount received, or other factors, more information or documentation may be required. If you do not provide accurate, complete, and satisfactory information, business data, or documents to us, the company reserves the right to reject your merchant account registration and/or later close your user account.
You must provide all documents, information, and business data to the company accurately and timely. You agree that delays in providing documents and/or information may delay the approval of your merchant account registration.
Providing false, forged, altered, or fraudulent documents intended to deceive and conceal information will be considered fraudulent and treated as such.
10. Force Majeure
No Party shall be liable or deemed to be in breach of these terms for any delay or failure to perform under these terms resulting from any event beyond the reasonable control of that Party.
A Party aware of any event of force majeure causing or likely to cause any failure or delay in performing any obligations under these terms must:
Promptly notify the other Party;
Inform the other Party of the anticipated duration of such failure or delay.
If such an event lasts for more than 3 months, either Party may terminate these terms by giving written notice to the other Party.
11. Indemnification
The contracting party will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless iCronPay and its affiliates (as well as their respective employees, directors, agents, and representatives) from any and all claims, costs, litigation, actions, or demands and any damages related to them, arising out of losses, damages, liabilities, judgments, tax assessments, fines, interest, and fees (including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees) stemming from any claims, lawsuits, audits, investigations, inquiries, or other proceedings brought by any individual or entity due to or related to:
Any actual or alleged breach of representations, warranties, or obligations set forth in these terms by the contracting party, including but not limited to any actions violating iCronPay’s policies or rules;
Any actual or alleged infringement, misappropriation, or violation of any third party’s rights or applicable law by the contracting party’s trademarks related to the services or use of the services on the contracting party’s website or application;
The contracting party or its customers’ use of the services.
12. Compensation
The contracting party owes iCronPay a subscription fee for using the services stipulated in the contract.
The amount released to the contracting party will be determined according to the appropriate market rate.
The contracting party accepts that iCronPay will deduct the subscription fee before releasing fiat currency to the contracting party.
iCronPay reserves the right to review and subsequently increase the subscription fee at any time, but not more than once every 12 months.

Without prejudice to these terms and any rights or remedies under applicable law, a party may terminate these terms by written notice if iCronPay breaches any obligations set out in these terms, particularly if iCronPay fails to pay any due amounts to the party under these terms within the specified period, or if iCronPay fails to settle its debts within 10 (ten) days from the date of notification.
If the party fails to fulfill or comply with the obligations set forth in these terms, iCronPay may terminate these terms by sending written notice.
16. Limitation of Liability
To the extent not prohibited by law, iCronPay shall not be liable for any type of direct or indirect damages arising out of or in any way related to your use or inability to use the services, including but not limited to alleged damages due to compromised, lost, or disclosed login credentials or funds, loss or inability to restore access to your account, errors, omissions, interruptions, delays, defects, and/or inaccuracies in transaction transmissions, or any failure of messages to be sent or received in their intended form or by their intended recipient, or reduction in the value of Ether, any other digital tokens, or virtual assets. In any case, iCronPay shall not be liable for any loss of profit or any special, incidental, indirect, intangible, or consequential damages arising out of or related to the authorized or unauthorized use of the services, even if an authorized representative of iCronPay has been advised of or knew or should have known of the possibility of such damages. In any case, iCronPay shall not be responsible for any damages resulting from third-party software, products, services, and/or information provided through the platform or accessed through the website.
17. No Relationship with Contracting Party’s Customers
The contracting party unequivocally, irrevocably, and expressly agrees that under no circumstances shall iCronPay have any obligations to merchant customers, or any obligations related to merchant customers, other than those mentioned in these terms, and that there is no contract or any other type of relationship with the merchant customers. More specifically, but without limitation, the contracting party unequivocally, irrevocably, and expressly accepts that iCronPay has no obligation or right to perform any onboarding processes related to the contracting party’s customers, as such processes are solely the responsibility of the contracting party itself.
18. Entire Agreement
Both parties agree that these terms and any agreements referenced and incorporated within them constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede any previous agreements, understandings, and arrangements, whether written or oral, regarding the subject matter hereof.
Each party acknowledges that it has not relied on any representations or warranties in these terms or any agreements referenced herein, and no remedies shall be available for any representations or warranties not expressly set out in these terms or referenced agreements. Neither party shall claim for any innocent or negligent misrepresentation based on any statements within these terms.
19. Severability
Each provision of these terms is severable and independent of the others. If any provision (or part of a provision) of these terms is or becomes illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under any applicable law but would be legal, valid, and enforceable if a certain part were deleted or modified (or the duration of the term is reduced), such provision shall apply after making the necessary deletion or modification to make it legal, valid, and enforceable.
Without limiting the foregoing, in such a situation, the parties will immediately and in good faith seek to negotiate an alternative provision that reflects the original intent of these terms.
If any part or provision of these terms is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, governmental, or administrative body, the remaining provisions shall remain valid. The parties shall strive to negotiate an alternative provision that best reflects the original economic intent while being enforceable and shall execute all relevant agreements and documents. The same applies if these terms contain any gaps or omissions.
20. Accuracy
The iCronPay cryptocurrency website (including but not limited to its content) may not always be entirely accurate, complete, or current and may contain technical inaccuracies or typographical errors.
To continue providing as complete and accurate information as possible, within the limits permitted by applicable law, information may be changed or updated from time to time without notice, including but not limited to information regarding iCronPay policies, products, and services.
The contracting party should verify all information before relying on it, and all decisions based on such information found on the iCronPay website are made solely at their own risk. iCronPay bears no liability for such decisions.
For convenience, links to third-party materials (including but not limited to websites) may be provided but are not under iCronPay’s control.
The contracting party explicitly acknowledges and agrees that the risk of using iCronPay’s cryptocurrency services lies with the contracting party and that the responsibility for satisfactory quality, performance, accuracy, and effort rests with the contracting party. This platform is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without any express, implied, or statutory representations or warranties. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, iCronPay explicitly disclaims any express or implied warranties, including but not limited to those of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and/or non-infringement. iCronPay does not guarantee or warrant that access to services or any materials contained therein will be continuous, uninterrupted, timely, or error-free.
Therefore, the contracting party acknowledges and agrees that iCronPay is not responsible for any aspect of third-party materials or the information, content, or services contained in any third-party websites accessible or linked through iCronPay’s website or services.

Each party may disclose the other party’s confidential information to its employees, officers, consultants, agents, or representatives who need to know such confidential information to exercise the disclosing party’s rights or perform its obligations under these terms, provided that the disclosing party ensures that each such employee, officer, consultant, agent, or representative to whom it discloses confidential information is made aware of its confidential nature and complies with these terms in the same manner as the disclosing party.
Each party may disclose any confidential information required by law, any court, any governmental, regulatory, or supervisory authority, or any other local competent authority.
Each party shall indemnify the other party for any losses, damages, liabilities, costs (including legal costs), and expenses that the other party may incur or suffer as a result of breaching obligations under these terms regarding confidentiality.
23. Waiver
Any failure, delay, or omission by either party in exercising any right, power, or remedy provided by law or under these terms shall not operate as a waiver of that, or any other, right, power, or remedy, nor shall it preclude or restrict any future exercise of that, or any other, right, power, or remedy.
The single or partial exercise of any right, power, or remedy provided by law or under this agreement shall not hinder or prevent the subsequent exercise of that, or any other, right, power, or remedy.
