In compliance with mandatory AML and KYC regulatory requirements, Switchere.com has devised and implemented the verification tiers, which govern the exchange limits at the Switchere.com website.
IMPORTANT! For the EU users, the account exchange limits for Basic Verification, Identity Verification and Address Verification tiers renew every month. However, for non-EU users, it is only the account exchange limit for Basic verification tier that renews monthly. Other verification tiers (Identity Verification and Address Verification) are non-renewable and once the user’s current exchange limit reached, it is necessary to complete the next verification tier in accordance with the cumulative spending limit system.
- To be eligible to use online exchange services rendered by Switchere.com, the user is obligated to complete initial verification of the user’s email address and pass the Basic verification procedure. Once it is done, the account exchange limit is set to renewable 150 EUR/150 USD (or any other fiat or cryptocurrency equivalent to this amount at the current exchange rate) monthly. Once the user’s current exchange limit reached, it will be automatically renewed to 150 EUR/150 USD monthly starting the first date of the successive month. If the platform user wants to exchange cryptocurrencies in the amount that exceeds his/her Basic Verification exchange limit, then it is necessary to complete the next verification stage to increase the current exchange limit.
- After completing the Identity Verification procedure, the user is authorized to make online exchanges on the Switchere.com website conditioned that the total account exchange limit cannot exceed the monthly 7 500 EUR/8 500 USD (or any other fiat or cryptocurrency equivalent to this amount at the current exchange rate) threshold.
- After successful verification of the user’s residential address, the user is authorized to make online exchanges on the Switchere.com website conditioned that the total account exchange limit cannot exceed the monthly 15 000 EUR/15 000 USD (or equivalent amount in any other fiat or cryptocurrency) threshold.
- After completing source of income verification, the user’s account exchange threshold becomes unlimited.
The exchange limits and verification tiers are being reviewed and updated throughout the entire period of customer lifecycle stages in connection with a particular user account. Switchere.com reserves the right to monitor the website accounts for activity involving unusual transaction sizes, volumes, patterns or types and Switchere.com may in its sole discretion conduct further investigations in this respect. Switchere.com may from time to time temporarily reject customers from some countries/territories. This can be because of legal issues or AML/KYC Policy or technical reasons or other temporary reason.
8. Loyalty Program
The Switchere Loyalty Program operates under the terms and conditions as set out below unless otherwise expressly stated (the “Program Rules”). The Program Rules govern the Switchere.com’s relationship with members of the Loyalty Program (collectively, “Loyalty Program Members,” and individually, a “Loyalty Program Member,” “Member,” or “you”), including how Members manage their accounts, level up, earn and redeem Loyalty Program’s Switchere Reward Points (“SWR”) — the reward unit of the Loyalty Program, which is equivalent to the Euro currency at 1:1 ratio (1 SWR = 1 EUR). Membership in the Loyalty Program is free and available to any individual who: (a) possesses the legal authority to agree to Terms of Use; (b) resides in a jurisdiction which legally permits participation in the Loyalty Program; (c) is not a resident of Afghanistan, American Samoa, Bahamas, Botswana, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guam, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Nigeria, North Korea (DPRK), Pakistan, Panama, Puerto Rico, Samoa, Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, US Virgin Islands and Yemen (“Unsupported Countries”); (d) provides valid and accurate personal information and (e) is 18 years or older.
Members can earn SWR units while participating in ongoing promotional campaigns and Affiliate Program (Referral Rewards). In particular, a qualifying Affiliate is eligible to receive 30% commission of Referral Earnings to his/her Reward Balance on the Switchere.com website. All SWR earnings received by the Participant can be viewed and managed in the Reward Programs area. Minimum withdrawal amount is 10 SWR but the withdrawal can be made in crypto only (namely, any cryptocurrency supported on the Switchere.com website). When the Participant initiates a withdrawal request for SWR units, SWR-to-crypto conversion is done at the current exchange rate. In the course of advertising campaigns, special promotional actions and offers from Switchere.com, additional SWR units may be accrued by the Members. Switchere.com reserves the right to terminate the accrual of SWR, withhold any amount of SWR from the Participant’s Account or prohibit their redemption for any supported cryptocurrencies in case we have reasonable suspicions regarding fraud or other unlawful conduct with regard to Member’s participation in the Loyalty Program. SWR units are not and may not be payment means, any kind of currency or securities, but they can be converted to cryptocurrencies on Switchere.com and withdrawn at any time. You cannot sell or transfer SWR to other Loyalty Program Participants — they are meant for your personal use in your user account on the Switchere.com website only.
