Last updated: July 2026

1. Agreement Acceptance

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the TaqFlow platform ("the Service") operated by TaqFlow. By registering an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms in every jurisdiction where you access or use the Service.

The Service is available to registered business entities (B2B customers). You must be an authorised representative of a legally constituted business and provide accurate KYB documentation, including trade licence, beneficial ownership, and corporate authorisations as required by the laws of your jurisdiction of incorporation.

3. Onboarding & Verification

As a cross-border payment service provider, we are required to conduct customer due diligence (CDD) and enhanced due diligence (EDD) in accordance with the AML/CFT laws of every jurisdiction where we operate. We reserve the right to:

  • Request additional documentation before activating your account.
  • Reject or suspend accounts that do not meet our risk or compliance criteria.

TaqFlow facilitates cross-border payments across supported currency corridors. By submitting a payment instruction, you authorise us to:

  • Debit the specified source account for the instructed amount plus applicable fees.
  • Convert funds at the FX rate displayed and confirmed at the time of instruction.
  • Remit the converted amount to the designated counterparty's bank account.

Settlement times vary by corridor but typically complete within one (1) business day. TaqFlow is not liable for delays caused by intermediary banks, correspondent networks, or receiving bank processing.

5. Fees & FX Rates

Fees and exchange rates are displayed at the time of each transaction and confirmed before execution. Our transfer fee starts at 0.35% of the transaction value. FX rates include a spread over the interbank rate. All fees are quoted in the source currency and disclosed transparently on-screen.

We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or punitive damages, or for losses arising from events outside our reasonable control, including force majeure.

8. Account Suspension & Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account immediately if we suspect a breach of these Terms, a regulatory violation under any applicable jurisdiction's laws, or suspicious activity reportable under local AML/CFT requirements. You may close your account at any time, subject to settlement of outstanding transactions and retention of records as required by law.
