These Dosh Google Pay Terms and Conditions together with the Dosh Terms and Conditions govern your use of your Dosh Card (‘Card’) with Google Pay. It’s important you read this document carefully. Your Card is issued by Flexewallet NZBN 9429046405883 and its Related Bodies Corporate (‘Issuer’). The Issuer can be contacted at Level 10, 21 Queen Street, Auckland 1010 or contact@dosh,nz. In these terms and conditions any reference to ‘we’ or ‘us’ is a reference to the Issuer; ‘you’ are the Card purchaser/user of the Card.
You agree to these terms by:
adding your Dosh Card for use in Google Pay on your eligible Android Device. These terms apply in addition to your Dosh Card Terms associated with each Card.
It is important that you read these terms and the Product Disclosure Statement together.
You can add your Card to Google Pay on your eligible Android Device provided
that:
we have verified the relevant Cardholder’s identity;
the Cardholder has agreed to the Card being added to Google Pay on the relevant Cardholder’s eligible Google Device;
the balance of your card account is in good standing. Cardholders can remove the Card linked to their account from Google Pay on the Cardholder’s Android Device at any time.
Instructions to unlink your card are available on the Google Pay website and through your Android Device.
Once your Dosh Card is added to Google Pay, the Cardholder can use Google Pay to authorise transactions on an account. This is done by using the relevant Android Device in place of the Dosh Card at a contactless terminal or in an application on an Android Device. Some contactless terminals may require the Cardholder to enter the Card PIN.
Any person who can unlock your Android Device may be able to make transactions using the Dosh Card registered in Google Pay.
If a Cardholder’s Card linked to your card account is registered for Google Pay on any eligible Android Device, you are responsible for ensuring that:
only the Cardholder’s biometric identifier (and no other person’s biometric identifier) is registered;
the Google wallet is not shared with anyone and is used only by the Cardholder;
the Cardholder keeps the passcode for the Cardholder’s Android Device secure in the same way as a Cardholder would keep a banking password or PIN secure, including by:
not sharing it with anyone,
not carrying a record of it within an Android Device or with anything capable of being stolen along with an Android Device (unless a reasonable effort is made to protect the security of it);
not choosing an easily guessable passcode such as the Cardholder’s date of birth or a recognisable part of the Cardholder’s name; and
not acting with extreme carelessness in failing to protect the security of the passcode.
the Cardholder keeps the Android Device safe and secure (including by locking it when not in use or when it is unattended and by installing up-to-date anti-virus software on it); and
the Cardholder removes the Dosh Card from the Cardholder’s Android Device before disposing of the Android Device.
If a Cardholder fails to comply with any of the requirements in this section 5, you are taken to have authorised that person to transact on your account using Google Pay.
This means that any Google Pay transaction initiated by that person using the Biometric Identifier, biometric information or passcode w will be authorised by you. This could result in significant loss or liability in relation to such transactions.
If another person’s Biometric Identifier is registered on your Android Device you must ensure that it is removed. If you think any other person knows the passcode for the Android Device, you must ensure that the passcode is changed by you as applicable. If a Cardholder becomes aware that another person is or may be able to access the Android Device using their biometric information, the Cardholder must use a passcode instead of a Biometric Identifier to initiate transactions using their Dosh Cardon Google Pay and must remove their Biometric Identifier from the Android Device.
At any time, a Cardholder can delete or suspend their Dosh Card from Google Pay.
Please contact us immediately if:
any Android Device on which a Dosh Card linked to your card account has been added to Google Pay is lost or stolen;
the mobile service of any Android Device on which a Dosh Card linked to your card account has been added to Google Pay is suddenly disconnected without your permission (which may indicate the occurrence of mobile phone porting); or
you suspect a security breach in relation to any Android Device on which a Dosh Card linked to your card account has been added to Google Pay, or that an unauthorised person has used the passcode, Card PIN or other credentials to access Google Pay.
Based on your report, we will suspend use of your Dosh Card with Google Pay. This helps protect you as much as possible from additional loss or liability. If you have contributed to the loss by unreasonably delaying reporting to us the loss or theft of your Google Device or the unauthorised use of your account details, you may be liable for transactions for which you did not give authority incurred before the report is received by us.
Generally, subject to protections under the Law, you are liable for unauthorised transactions conducted using Google Pay.
We do not impose any additional fees and charges for registering and using your Dosh Card with Google Pay. However, you will need to pay any third-party fees and charges associated with downloading, registering and using Google Pay on a supported device (including carriage or mobile data charges).
We may block, suspend or terminate your Dosh Card in Google Pay:
if we reasonably suspect fraud;
if your Dosh Cardis cancelled, blocked or suspended;
if you are in breach of these terms;
if required by applicable laws (such as anti-money laundering and counter terrorism financing laws, or sanctions laws);
if directed to so by Google or by the applicable card network (for example, in circumstances of suspected fraud);
if Dosh’s arrangements with Google regarding Google Pay cease or are suspended;
or for any other reason.
More circumstances in which electronic access may be removed in relation to your Dosh Card (including through Google Pay) are set out in the Dosh Terms and Conditions.
We may collect information relating to your Android Device (including app version, device type and model, operating system and security information such as whether you have obtained root access):
to ensure that your Dosh Card properly functions in Google Pay;
for security purposes and to identify fraud;
for Dosh to better provide assistance to you; and
to tell you about other products or services that may be of interest to you.
We may also exchange information with Google and service providers:
to enable the useof your Dosh Card with Google Pay and to improve Google Pay generally;
and to detect and address suspected security breaches or fraud.
If you do not want us to collect or disclose this information as described, you should not register your Dosh Card for use with Google Pay.
Once your Dosh Card is registered to your Google Device, Google may access your personal information regarding the use of that Card through Google Pay. Please see Google’s privacy policy www.policies.google.com/privacy.
Google Pay and Google Pay Devices are provided by Google, not by Dosh nor any of its Related Bodies Corporate.
Our obligation to you in relation to the functionality of Google Pay is limited to securely supplying information to Google in order to allow the use of the Dosh Card through Google Pay. We are not otherwise liable for the use, functionality or availability of Google Pay, any Android Device, the availability of compatible contactless terminals, or a reduced level of service caused by the failure of third-party communication sand network providers.
You will need to agree to Google’s terms and conditions in order to use Google Pay.
Dosh and its Related Bodies Corporate will not be liable for any loss arising from your use
of Google Pay to the extent the loss was caused by:
your fraud; or
your use of Google Pay or the Android Device in a manner not permitted by Google (for example, by obtaining root access to your Android Device); or
a reduced level of service caused by matters beyond our reasonable control (for example, those caused by third-party software and network providers).
We can change these terms by giving you notice as described below.
If we reasonably consider a change is unfavourable to you, we will give you prior notice of at least 30 days.
We may give you a shorter notice period, which may include notice on the day the change takes effect, if we reasonably consider:
the change has a neutral effect on your obligations;
the change reduces your obligations; or
providing a shorter notice period is necessary for us to:
immediately restore or maintain the security of a system or individual facility;
avoid or reduce a material increase in our credit risk or loss; or
comply with legal or regulatory requirements.
You agree that we may give you notice of the change by any notification method allowed by these terms including by letter or by electronic means as set out in Section 12 below.
Despite this clause, we will always give you notice in accordance with any applicable laws or industry, or any other terms and conditions applicable to your Dosh Card, which require any minimum notice periods or specific methods of notification.
The current terms will always be available for you to view at www.dosh.nz/google-pay
Without limiting any other means of communicating with you under the Dosh Card Terms and Conditions and associated Product Disclosure Statement, we may communicate with you by sending an SMS to your Android Device, an email to the email address you have provided to us or by writing to you at the address you have provided to us. The SMS or notice may include a link to detailed information on our website.
If any provision or part of a provision of these terms is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, it will be severed from these terms and the remaining provisions (or parts of provisions) will continue in full force and effect.
These terms are governed by New Zealand Law.
