Comprehensive Dafex terms for registration, accounts, privacy, wallets and payment services
Introduction and unified acceptance
This document sets out, in a single text, the general terms for creating and using a personal Dafex account, processing information, the operational wallet, deposits and withdrawals, funding with Tether, and creating and executing transfers. By selecting “I accept the comprehensive Dafex terms” and completing registration, the user confirms that they have read and agree to this document.
Acceptance of this document does not replace confirmation of each transfer's variable details. Before final submission of each order, its amount, currency, rate, fees, beneficiary amount and details, estimated time and specific route rules are displayed. Confirming that page constitutes an instruction to execute that transfer, rather than acceptance of a new general document.
Consent to receive marketing messages is separate and optional. Declining it does not prevent registration or use of the services.

2. Introduction to Dafex and the nature of accounts and services
Dafex is a platform for creating, reviewing, managing and tracking international payment and settlement services. Dafex is not a public online exchange, a currency or cryptocurrency trading market, a bank, a deposit-taking institution or a system for unrestricted money transfers between individuals.
Creating an account does not guarantee access to every country, currency, method or limit. Each service depends on route availability, capacity, identity and risk review outcomes, applicable laws and partner conditions.
Personal accounts are for the user's own use. Organizational use, serving other customers, acting on behalf of a money changer or company, and managing third-party funds require an organizational account and separate partnership terms.
3. Registration requirements and legal capacity
Users must be at least 18 years old, have the necessary legal capacity, and create accounts only for themselves using accurate information.
Each person may have only one active personal account unless Dafex gives written permission otherwise. Selling, renting, assigning, sharing or creating an account for another person is prohibited.
4. Accuracy of information and changes
Names, identity documents, email address, address, country of residence, residency status, occupation and other requested information must be accurate, complete, legible and current. False identities, altered documents, another person’s email address and fictitious addresses are prohibited.
Users must report changes to material information without delay. Dafex may restrict some services until updates are completed.
5. Identity verification, customer due diligence and additional reviews
Before activation or during the relationship, Dafex may request proportionate information and documents to verify identity, establish the service purpose, source and origin of funds, relationship to the beneficiary, residence, occupation and expected activity, and to prevent fraud or meet legal requirements.
Information may include identity documents, live images, address and residency documents, employment and economic information, source of funds, transfer purpose, relationships between parties, payment instrument information and route-specific documents.
Accounts or services may remain restricted until review is complete. Refusal to provide information, material inconsistencies, inability to verify details or unexplained risk may lead to a pause, rejection or suspension.
6. Country of residence and service availability
Users must declare their actual country of residence, address and residency status. Access to the website does not mean that services are available or permitted in every country. Eligibility depends on applicable laws, service restrictions and operating partner requirements.
Users are responsible for their personal legal and tax obligations in their country of residence and must not use false information or technical tools to bypass geographic, identity or control restrictions.
7. Account security
Users must take reasonable steps to protect their email account, password, verification codes, device and account recovery methods, and must not share passwords or security codes with others.
Users must notify support immediately if access to their email account or device is lost, a suspicious login occurs or unauthorized changes are made. Dafex may temporarily restrict login or operations and request identity verification again to protect the account.
8. Permitted use and prohibited activities
Accounts may be used only for lawful, clear and explainable purposes in accordance with this document and the relevant service terms.
- Using another person's name, a rented account or a personal account to provide financial services to third parties;
- Concealing the actual owner, source of funds, purpose, sender, beneficiary, bank, wallet, broker or route;
- Money laundering, fraud, forgery, deception, financing unlawful activity or deliberately splitting amounts to bypass limits and controls;
- Paying or receiving funds from an unrelated person without disclosure and approval;
- Use for prohibited goods or services, or circumventing laws and contractual restrictions;
- Unauthorized access, disruption, malware, data extraction or automated use without permission;
9. Communications, notifications and third-party services
Essential account and service messages may be sent by email, platform notification or another official channel agreed with the user. Users must keep their email address and other provided contact information current.
Operating partners may perform parts of verification, messaging, payment, technology, monitoring, settlement or transfer execution. Dafex shares information with them only as necessary and in accordance with this document.
10. Privacy and information processing
10.1. Information that may be collected
- Identity and residency information, such as name, date of birth, passport, national identity card or driving licence details, nationality, address and residency documents;
- Contact and account information, such as email address, any additional contact details provided, user ID and login records;
- Economic and financial information, such as occupation, source of funds, payment instruments, bank accounts, wallets and balance history;
- Transfer information, such as sender, beneficiary, purpose, amount, currency, country, bank, receipts and transaction IDs;
- Technical and security information, such as network address, device and browser type, login time, security events and operation logs;
- Correspondence, complaints, files and support calls;
- Specific information required by law or the route for identity verification and risk controls;
10.2. Purposes of processing
- Creating and managing accounts and verifying identity;
- Providing wallets, deposits, withdrawals, pricing, transfer execution and support;
- Preventing fraud, misuse, money laundering and security incidents;
- Financial reconciliation, auditing, dispute handling and protecting the parties' rights;
- Proportionate product improvement, quality control and performance analysis;
- Complying with laws and partner contracts, and responding to competent authorities;
- Sending marketing messages only with the user's separate consent;
10.3. Consent and sensitive information
Where processing sensitive information or use beyond what is necessary to provide the service requires explicit consent, Dafex obtains separate, clear consent. Silence or a preselected option does not constitute consent.
10.4. Sources of information
Information may be obtained directly from the user, payment instruments, banks or networks, operating partners, identity verification providers, legitimate legal databases or technical data from platform use.
10.5. Information sharing and transfers
Information is shared only as necessary with operating partners, verification, payment, security and infrastructure providers, professional advisers and competent authorities. Dafex does not provide personal information to advertisers for independent commercial sale.
Because transfers are international, necessary beneficiary, sender and transaction information may be transferred to a partner or provider in another country. Transfers occur only for service execution, risk controls, settlement, follow-up or legal requirements. Data protection laws in the destination country may differ.
10.6. Cookies and technical data
The platform may use cookies or similar technologies for login, security, saved settings, functionality and technical analysis. Essential cookies are necessary for platform operation. Marketing or nonessential analytics require separate consent where required by law.
10.7. Retention and deletion
Information is retained as long as necessary to provide services, satisfy financial and legal requirements, maintain security, conduct audits, handle complaints and protect the parties' rights. Closing an account does not immediately delete identity and transaction records.
10.8. User rights and requests
Users may use official channels to request access to disclosable information, correction of inaccurate information, restrictions on optional processing, withdrawal of marketing consent or explanations of processing. Deletion or transfer may be limited by legal, financial or security requirements or others' rights.
10.9. Security and data incidents
Dafex applies reasonable technical and organizational controls to protect information, although no system is entirely immune. Significant incidents are contained, investigated and reported as required by law and practical circumstances.
10.10. Privacy contact
Privacy requests are submitted through [official privacy email/ticket]. Dafex may verify the requester's identity again before responding.
11. Dafex operational wallet
11.1. Nature of the wallet
The Dafex wallet is an internal balance record for limited use within platform services. It is not a bank account, deposit, investment instrument or general-purpose wallet for unrestricted transfers between individuals. Its balance earns no guaranteed interest or return.
11.2. Wallet creation and currencies
Dafex may create wallets in one or more active currencies for verified users. A currency's presence on the platform does not guarantee permanent deposit, withdrawal or transfer availability.
11.3. Adding funds
Funds may be added only through methods, accounts, cards, wallets and addresses displayed on the platform or officially approved. Amounts are added to the available balance after receipt, identification, confirmation and completion of necessary reviews.
Submitting a receipt or transaction ID, or an initial success indication from a bank or network, does not by itself make the balance final. Dafex may keep amounts pending until reliable confirmation is received.
11.4. Payment instrument ownership and third parties
Deposits and withdrawals should normally use payment instruments belonging to the account holder. Third-party accounts, cards or wallets may be used only after prior disclosure, provision of required information and Dafex approval.
11.5. Available and committed balances
Amounts associated with transfers, withdrawals, disputes or reviews are removed from the available balance and become committed. Users cannot spend those amounts again until the matter is resolved.
11.6. Withdrawing funds
Withdrawals are made only when the service is active, identity verification is complete, no open request or legal prohibition exists, and the destination is an approved account or wallet. The amount, fee and estimated time are shown before confirmation.
Dafex may require verification against the original source of funds or proof of destination instrument ownership and may refuse withdrawals to unrelated persons.
11.7. Correcting erroneous entries
If funds are incorrectly credited because of a technical error, bank reversal, duplicate transaction or calculation error, Dafex may correct the entry after recording the reason and providing appropriate notice. Users must not knowingly use an erroneous balance.
11.8. Balance restrictions
Some or all of a balance may be restricted pending resolution of ownership disputes, suspected fraud, payment reversals, legal reviews, debts, technical errors or orders from competent authorities.
11.9. Account closure and remaining balance
Account closure depends on resolving open transfers, withdrawals, disputes and reviews. After documented costs are deducted and obstacles removed, withdrawable funds are returned to the account holder through an authorized method.
12. Funding or paying with Tether (USDT)
12.1. Scope of service
Tether is used only as an authorized method of funding or paying fees. Dafex does not provide a public cryptocurrency market, investment services, yield-bearing custody or unrestricted cryptocurrency transfers between users.
12.2. Authorized network and address
Users must use only the asset, blockchain network and address displayed by the platform for the particular payment. Availability of one network does not imply support for another network or asset.
Transfers to an incorrect network, contract or address may be unrecoverable. Dafex does not guarantee recovery. Technical or network costs resulting from user error may be deducted from recovered funds.
12.3. Address and amount validity
The displayed address, amount and deadline are valid only for that operation and the stated period. Users must check the network, address and amount again before sending.
12.4. Blockchain confirmation and transaction ID
Tether balances become final after a valid transaction is observed, the required confirmations are received, the amount is reconciled and risk reviews are complete. Users must provide a transaction ID or source wallet information when requested.
12.5. Source wallet and third-party payments
Funds should normally be sent from a wallet owned or controlled by the user. Funds from a third-party wallet, exchange or other platform may require review of ownership, source of funds and the parties' relationship, and may remain unavailable until review is complete.
12.6. Underpayments, overpayments and late payments
Sending less or more than the stated amount, or sending after the deadline, does not automatically confirm the price or service. The payment is reviewed for reconciliation, a new quote, additional funds or a refund.
12.7. Screening and high-risk sources
Dafex may review addresses and transactions using analytical tools and available information. Links to theft, fraud, frozen assets, unlawful markets, sanctions or unexplained sources may lead to a pause, a document request, rejection or legal action.
12.8. Tether refunds and network fees
Where permitted, Tether is refunded only to a verified address after review. Actual network fees and nonrefundable costs may be deducted unless the issue was caused by an Dafex error.
12.9. Finality of blockchain transactions
A transaction recorded and confirmed on a blockchain generally cannot be reversed unilaterally. Fake receipts, unrelated transaction IDs and attempts to spend the same balance simultaneously are prohibited.
13. Transfer requests and confirmation of variable details
Registering and accepting this document does not confirm a price or instruct a specific transfer. The platform displays a summary before each transfer is finally submitted.
- Source, destination, currency and amount;
- Amount reserved from the wallet, exchange rate and fees;
- Amount received by the beneficiary or its calculation method;
- Beneficiary details and receiving bank or instrument;
- Estimated time, quote validity and route restrictions;
- Specific amendment or cancellation conditions and potential costs;
Confirming this summary instructs execution of that Transfer and authorizes reservation of the stated amount in the wallet and its final debit on completion. This confirmation must be recorded with its version and timestamp.
14. Reservation, settlement and price locking
Creating a Transfer requires sufficient available balance. The principal, fees and disclosed costs are reserved for that Transfer and become unavailable for other spending. Reservation is temporary: the wallet is finally debited when the Transfer completes. A reservation does not mean that the Beneficiary has received funds.
The exchange rate, fees and destination amount recorded on the confirmed Transfer apply to that Transfer. Dafex must not request additional funds or reduce the destination amount solely because of ordinary market fluctuations.
If incorrect information, a requested change, a legal restriction or an unavoidable cost prevents execution on the confirmed terms, any proposed change must be explained and explicitly accepted before proceeding. Otherwise, the Transfer is cancelled where possible and its reservation released, subject to the cancellation terms and any costs lawfully due.
15. Transfer execution time and service level
The estimated execution time begins after successful final submission and reservation of the required balance. The displayed time represents the route’s usual duration under normal conditions and is not guaranteed unless the platform explicitly states a binding commitment.
If progress requires user action, documents, corrections or confirmation of a change, the clock pauses until the necessary action is completed. Internal Dafex or partner delays must not be recorded as user delays.
Where a duration is expressed in business days or business hours, the applicable calendar, hours and time zone must be disclosed for the relevant service. Announced closures and operating partner schedules may affect execution time.
16. Responsibility for beneficiary and destination account information
Before final submission, users must check the Beneficiary’s name, account number or IBAN, bank, SWIFT/BIC or other required banking code, country, currency, wallet address, network and other destination details.
If an error is identified before submission to a partner, the request is paused for correction. If reported after execution begins, Dafex makes reasonable efforts to stop, amend or recover the transfer, but the outcome depends on the bank, network and partner and is not guaranteed.
Actual nonrefundable costs arising from user error may be deducted from the refundable amount. If the user provided correct information and Dafex or its partner transmitted it incorrectly, the user does not bear correction costs.
If the destination account is closed, blocked, restricted, invalid or incompatible with the currency, the transfer is paused for correction, an alternative account or cancellation. Changing the beneficiary or account may require renewed review and confirmation.
17. Inability to execute and Dafex or partner errors
If execution through the specified route is impossible, Dafex may use an alternative route without adverse effects, propose new terms for user approval, wait with the user's knowledge, or cancel and return funds, as appropriate.
If failure results from an Dafex error or negligence, the principal and Dafex fee are returned to the wallet. Costs caused by Dafex errors are not deducted from the user's funds.
If a partner causes an issue and the user is not responsible, Dafex must follow up, communicate and resolve the user's position. A dispute between Dafex and its partner must not leave funds unresolved indefinitely.
18. Cancellation, rejection and refunds
Users may request cancellation before execution reaches an irreversible stage. A request does not constitute immediate cancellation; the ability to stop execution and costs already incurred are reviewed.
Dafex may pause, reject or cancel a transfer because of incomplete or incorrect information, unverified identity or source of funds, fraud risk, route or partner restrictions, inability to execute safely or a competent authority's order.
When a pending Transfer is cancelled or rejected, its wallet reservation is released so that the reserved amount becomes available again. A release does not create a new deposit or a second wallet credit. If funds have already been settled externally, recovery and any refund require reconciliation and confirmation of funds returned. Neither releasing a hold nor a wallet refund automatically withdraws funds to a bank or external wallet.
After final refund approval and financial reconciliation, the refundable amount is returned to the user's wallet within 2 business days at most.
Deductions from refunds are allowed only for actual, documented, explainable and nonrefundable costs caused by the user's cancellation, changes or errors, where the possibility was disclosed before submission. Vague penalties, lost profits and costs caused by Dafex errors cannot be deducted.
19. Delays and follow-up
If a transfer exceeds its estimated time, Dafex reviews its status, explains the general cause where possible, and specifies the next action and update time.
Target initial response to a delay inquiry: within 3 business hours. Target preliminary review result: within 24 business hours.
An initial response does not mean the transfer is complete or the issue fully resolved. It means the inquiry has been recorded, review started and a status or next action communicated.
20. Events beyond control and transfer completion
Bank or network disruptions, widespread communications outages, sudden regulatory changes, legal orders, partner stoppages, war, unrest, natural disasters, large-scale cyberattacks, unexpected closures or emergency capacity shortages may delay or prevent execution.
In these circumstances Dafex does not guarantee outcomes beyond its reasonable control, but keeps the funds' status clear, provides reasonable updates and follow-up, explains continuation or cancellation options, and resolves refundable funds after the obstacle is removed. This clause does not remove Dafex's responsibility for its own errors.
A transfer is complete when a reliable bank, network or partner confirms funds have been deposited into the designated account or instrument, or made available to the beneficiary by the agreed method.
21. Account restrictions, suspension and closure
Dafex may restrict or suspend accounts or operations because of inaccurate information, inability to verify identity, reasonable suspicion of fraud or unauthorized use, breach of these terms, security risks, legal requirements or route closure.
Where possible and legally permitted, the general reason and next action are communicated. Account closure requires resolution of balances, transfers, debts, disputes and open reviews.
22. Record retention
Identity records, acceptance of this document, consents, logins, balances, deposits, withdrawals, transfers, communications and important decisions are retained as long as necessary for legal requirements, audits, security, complaints and protection of the parties' rights.
23. Costs and taxes
Each service's cost is displayed before confirmation. Users are responsible for their personal banking, operator, internet and tax costs and obligations in their country of residence unless expressly stated otherwise.
24. Responsibilities of the parties
Each party is responsible for its obligations and actions under law and this document. No clause excludes liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence or rights that cannot be waived.
- Users are responsible for direct losses caused by false information, prohibited use, knowingly transferring accounts or errors in their information.
- Dafex is responsible for direct and provable losses caused by breach of its legal or contractual obligations, subject to applicable law.
- A lawful and justified risk-control decision or delay does not constitute a breach if Dafex has not acted negligently in its implementation.
25. Complaints and review
Users may complain about registration, privacy, balances, deposits or withdrawals, Tether, delays, cost deductions, rejection, cancellation, refunds or response quality.
Dafex communicates review outcomes with understandable explanations of status, amounts and the final decision, except where disclosure is limited by law, security or confidentiality.
Official complaints channel: [official ticket address/email/telephone number].
26. Changes to the terms
Dafex may amend this document for changes in law, security, products or service structure. The version and effective date must be specified, and material changes announced before taking effect.
Changes affecting core rights or obligations require renewed explicit acceptance. Silence alone does not constitute acceptance of a fundamental change.
27. Applicable law and dispute resolution
Applicable law and the competent dispute resolution forum depend on the service provider’s legal identity, the service agreement and mandatory law. These terms do not remove nonwaivable consumer or other statutory rights. The provider’s legal identity, registered address and applicable legal framework must be disclosed before a Customer accepts the service agreement.
The parties first attempt to resolve disputes through support and the complaints process. If unresolved, the competent forum is determined by the provider's legal identity, the place of the relationship and applicable laws.
28. Version, language and validity of clauses
The language and controlling version of the service agreement must be identified when the Customer accepts it. Translations must communicate the same obligations and must not reduce rights required by applicable law. If a clause is invalid, the remaining clauses continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
29. Final registration confirmation
Required option: “I have read and accept the comprehensive Dafex terms for registration, accounts, privacy, wallets, Tether payments and payment services.”
