This document outlines our commitment to ensuring efficient fund access for our valued customers while adhering to relevant laws, regulations, and international best practices. By setting forth these guidelines, we aim to enhance customer satisfaction, foster trust, and streamline our fund availability processes.

(b) Scope and Applicability of the Guidelines:

The Guidelines apply to all aspects of fund availability within Zil Money’s services and offerings. They encompass various deposit types, processing timelines, and customer communication regarding fund availability. The Guidelines are applicable to all customers, partners, and stakeholders involved in the funds transfer and payment processing processes. We take a holistic approach to ensure that these guidelines align with our mission of providing a seamless and reliable payment processing experience to all users.

At Zil Money, regulatory compliance is of utmost importance. The Guidelines are fully compliant with all applicable laws, regulations, more particularly Regulation CC (Availability of Funds and Collection of Checks) of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in the United States, and industry standards governing fund availability practices. We undergo regular reviews to ensure that our practices align with the requirements set forth by relevant regulatory authorities. Our commitment to compliance aims to safeguard the interests of our customers and maintain the integrity of the financial ecosystem in which we operate.

(d) Overview of Fund Availability Policy:

The Fund Availability Policy forms the core of the Guidelines, outlining specific timelines for deposit processing and fund accessibility. It covers various scenarios, such as same-day, next-day, and second-business-day availability, as well as procedures for placing holds on deposits. Additionally, the Guidelines explain how we handle substitute check disclosures, ensuring a smooth and efficient check clearing process for our customers. The Fund Availability Policy reflects our dedication to providing transparent and reliable fund access to meet the diverse needs of our users.

FUND AVAILABILITY POLICY OVERVIEW:

Our Fund Availability Policy is continually reviewed and updated to align with the evolving regulatory landscape and industry best practices, ensuring that our customers receive the highest level of service and convenience while maintaining compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

(a) Objectives of Fund Availability Policy:

The Fund Availability Policy is designed to ensure efficient and timely access to funds for our valued customers while maintaining compliance with relevant laws, rules, and regulations, including Regulation CC (Availability of Funds and Collection of Checks) of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in the United States. The primary objectives of this policy are to:

Provide Clarity: The policy aims to communicate clear and transparent guidelines regarding fund availability timelines, enabling customers to understand when deposited funds will be accessible for withdrawal or use.

Promote Fairness: By setting specific deposit processing timelines, the policy ensures fair treatment of all customers, regardless of the type of deposit or account status.

Mitigate Risk: The policy includes procedures for placing holds on deposits in certain circumstances, which helps mitigate the risk of fraud or insufficient funds.

(b) Types of Deposits Covered:

The Fund Availability Policy covers a range of deposit types, ensuring consistency in the treatment of various transactions. These deposits include, but are not limited to:

Cash Deposits: Funds deposited in cash are generally made available for withdrawal on the same business day they are deposited.

Electronic Direct Deposits: Electronic transfers, such as ACH, person-to-person transfers, and other EFTs supported by our Deposit Accounts, are typically available on the day we receive the deposit.

Check Deposits: Funds from checks deposited are subject to different availability schedules, depending on the check amount and other factors outlined in the policy.

Wire Transfers: Funds from wire transfers are typically available on the same business day they are received.

Our Fund Availability Policy operates based on business days. If a deposit is made before a specified cut-off time on a business day, we consider that day as the day of the deposit. Deposits made after the cut-off time or on non-business days are treated as received on the next business day.

The policy provides specific timelines for fund availability based on the type of deposit:

Same-Day Availability: Certain electronic deposits and cash deposits made during business hours are available for withdrawal on the same day.

Next-Day Availability: The first $200 of a check deposit is available for withdrawal on the first business day after the day of deposit.

Second-Business-Day Availability: All other funds from check deposits and certain other deposits are available on the second business day after the day of deposit.

Longer Delays: In certain circumstances, such as high-value deposits, repeated overdrafts, or emergencies, longer delays may apply.

The Fund Availability Policy reflects our dedication to providing transparent and reliable fund access, ensuring our customers have a positive and secure payment processing experience. By adhering to these objectives and timelines, we strive to meet the diverse needs of our users and enhance their overall satisfaction with our services.

Certain electronic deposits and cash deposits made during our business hours are available for withdrawal on the same day they are deposited. This includes electronic direct deposits, such as ACH transfers and person-to-person transfers, as well as cash deposits made at our physical locations or through designated cash deposit machines.

(b) Next Day Availability:

For check deposits, the first $200 of the deposit is available for withdrawal on the first business day after the day of deposit. This means that if you deposit a check, you can access up to $200 of the check amount on the next business day.

For all other funds from check deposits and certain other types of deposits, they will be available on the second business day after the day of deposit. This includes the remaining amount of check deposits beyond the first $200, as well as deposits made through wire transfers and other specified types.

Emergencies or System Failures: In exceptional circumstances, such as failures of communications or our systems, the availability of funds may be delayed.

When such delays occur, funds may not be accessible until the seventh business day after the day of deposit. We will always notify you if we need to delay the availability of funds and provide information on when the funds will be available.

Excess Over $2,500: Any deposit amount exceeding $2,500 will be available no later than the ninth business day after the day of deposit.

The Funds Availability Schedule reflects our commitment to providing clarity and fairness in managing fund availability for our customers. By adhering to these schedules and rules, we aim to ensure a smooth and reliable payment experience while complying with relevant laws, regulations, and international best practices.

HOLD PLACEMENTS AND PROCEDURES:

This section outlines the criteria for placing holds on deposits, our hold release policy, and how we notify customers of any hold placements, ensuring transparency and fairness in our fund availability practices.

(a) Criteria for Placing Holds on Deposits:

We may place holds on deposits in certain circumstances to ensure the security and integrity of our payment processing system. The criteria for placing holds on deposits are designed to mitigate risk and maintain the reliability of our services.

(b) Hold Release Policy:

Our hold release policy determines the timing for releasing holds on deposits based on the nature of the deposit and the reasons for the hold. This policy ensures that funds are made available to customers as soon as the risks associated with the deposit have been sufficiently addressed.

In the event that we place a hold on a deposit, we prioritize timely and clear communication with our customers. We promptly notify affected customers of any hold placements, including the reasons for the hold and the expected hold release date, providing transparency and keeping customers informed.

By adhering to these hold placements and procedures, we aim to maintain the integrity of our payment processing system while ensuring a positive and reliable experience for our valued customers.

DELIVERY OF DISCLOSURES:

This section outlines our commitment to providing customers with essential disclosures in a transparent and easily accessible manner. It includes details about the delivery of disclosures at account opening and the process for communicating changes in terms to ensure our customers are well-informed and empowered in their banking relationship with us.

(a) Disclosures at Account Opening:

At Zil Money, we are committed to providing our customers with all necessary disclosures at the time of account opening. These disclosures include important information about our products, services, fees, and policies that are relevant to their banking relationship with us. The delivery of disclosures at account opening ensures that our customers have a clear understanding of their rights and responsibilities, as well as the terms and conditions that govern their use of our services.

When a customer opens an account with us, we make sure to present the required disclosures in a clear and easily understandable manner. This may include providing printed materials, electronic documents, or digital notifications, depending on the customer’s preference and the nature of the account opening process.

(b) Change in Terms Disclosures:

As a financial services platform, we understand that changes in our terms and conditions may occur over time. When such changes are made, we are diligent in providing our customers with timely and transparent Change in Terms Disclosures. These disclosures inform our customers about any modifications to the terms of their existing accounts, products, or services.

Change in Terms Disclosures are typically provided in advance of the effective date of the changes. We ensure that these disclosures are clear, conspicuous, and easily accessible to our customers, allowing them to review the updated terms and conditions and make informed decisions regarding their continued use of our services.

Our commitment to delivering accurate and comprehensive disclosures underscores our dedication to transparency and customer empowerment. By providing these disclosures at account opening and for any subsequent changes in terms, we aim to foster trust and maintain open lines of communication with our valued customers. This practice aligns with relevant laws, rules, and regulations, ensuring that our disclosure processes meet the industry standard international best practices.

SUBSTITUTE CHECK DISCLOSURE:

The Check 21 Act (Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act), which became effective in the United States on October 28, 2004, governs the use and disclosure of substitute checks in the check clearing process. This section provides a comprehensive overview of substitute checks, their purpose, and the disclosures we provide to our customers in accordance with the law.

(a) Explanation of Substitute Checks:

Substitute checks are special copies of original paper checks created from electronic images. They are legally recognized as the equivalent of the original checks and are used in the check clearing process. The purpose of substitute checks is to facilitate the faster processing and clearing of checks by allowing financial institutions to exchange electronic images instead of physical paper checks.

When a check is deposited with us, we may create a substitute check to expedite the clearing process. This means that instead of sending the original paper check to the paying bank, we exchange a substitute check containing a digital image of the original check.

It is essential for our customers to understand that substitute checks contain all the information from the original check, including the front and back images, the check number, and the MICR line encoding.

(b) Provision of Substitute Check Disclosures:

As required by the Check 21 Act, we provide our customers with Substitute Check Disclosures to inform them about the use of substitute checks and their rights and responsibilities concerning these documents. These disclosures include:

Explanation of Substitute Checks: We inform our customers about the purpose and characteristics of substitute checks, ensuring they are aware of the check clearing process and the use of digital check images.

Liability and Protections: We explain the rights and protections provided to our customers under the law in case of errors or unauthorized transactions related to substitute checks.

Customer Support: We provide information on how our customers can seek assistance and clarification regarding substitute checks, ensuring they have access to customer support for any related inquiries.

Opt-Out Option: As allowed by the Check 21 Act, we inform our customers of their right to opt-out of receiving substitute checks and the process for exercising this option.

Our provision of Substitute Check Disclosures is aimed at promoting transparency and empowering our customers to make informed decisions about their check transactions. By adhering to the requirements of the Check 21 Act and providing these disclosures, we uphold our commitment to compliance and customer-centric service in the check clearing process.

BANKING PARTNERS’ REQUIREMENTS:

At Zil Money, we maintain strong partnerships with various banks that support our services as banking partners. These banking partners have rigorous due diligence processes, and as part of their requirements, they request specific information and documentation to ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and industry best practices. This section outlines some key requirements set forth by our banking partners and how we address them to foster successful and compliant partnerships.

(a) Funds Availability Disclosure:

One of the essential requirements of our banking partners is to provide them with a comprehensive Funds Availability Disclosure.

We ensure that the Funds Availability Disclosure is up-to-date, accurate, and fully compliant with Regulation CC and other relevant regulations, reflecting our commitment to transparency and fair treatment of our customers.

(b) Policies and Procedures for Delivery, Availability Schedule, and Change in Terms:

Our banking partners expect us to have well-defined policies and procedures for delivering disclosures, such as account opening disclosures and change in terms disclosures, to our customers. These policies must outline the timing and methods of disclosure delivery to ensure that customers receive important information promptly and can make informed decisions.

Additionally, our banking partners require us to have an availability schedule in place, indicating the timelines for fund availability based on the type of deposit. We make sure that our availability schedule aligns with industry standards and regulatory requirements to provide consistency and reliability to our customers.

Furthermore, we establish policies and procedures for managing changes in terms and conditions. When we make changes, we ensure that the process for notifying customers is clear and that the disclosures provided are transparent and easily accessible.

To meet our banking partners’ requirements, we have proper policies and procedures for placing holds on deposits when necessary. These policies outline the criteria for placing holds and the timing for releasing the holds, ensuring that customers are treated fairly and the risk of fraud or insufficient funds is mitigated.

We also provide customers with hold notices promptly, notifying them of any holds placed on their deposits. The hold notices include relevant information about the hold’s reason and the expected release date, keeping our customers informed and minimizing any inconvenience.

(d) Policies and Procedures for Substitute Check Disclosures:

Our banking partners require us to comply with the Check 21 Act and provide accurate and timely Substitute Check Disclosures to our customers. These disclosures explain the use and characteristics of substitute checks, as well as our customers’ rights and protections concerning these documents.

By adhering to our banking partners’ requirements and implementing appropriate policies and procedures, we demonstrate our commitment to maintaining strong partnerships and complying with all applicable laws and regulations.
