    2.2You acknowledge and agree that in order to use the Service, you must meet the following requirements:

    2.3You agree with the following in using the Service:

    1. You shall log on to the Online Banking Services via the Mobile App installed on your mobile device, select to use the Service and make all your Withdrawal Instructions through the Mobile App.
    2. You shall give your Withdrawal Instructions via your Designated Bank Account. All Withdrawal Instructions made by you, as recorded by the Bank via the Mobile App, shall be final and binding on you unless there is a manifest error. The Bank shall have the absolute discretion to determine whether or not to accept any Withdrawal Instruction.
    3. In order to withdraw cash under a Withdrawal Instruction, you shall visit any UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATM and select to use the Service on the screen of the UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATM. A QR Code will then be displayed on the screen of the UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATM. Withdrawal Instructions will only be recognized by UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATMs; you may not be able to access the Service if you are visiting an ATM that is not an UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATM.

    5. A Withdrawal Instruction will remain valid until you are logged out from the relevant session on the Mobile App (whether voluntarily or automatically due to a period of inactivity). If you do not scan the QR Code and enter the PIN at the UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATM before the end of the relevant session on the Mobile App, the Withdrawal Instruction will expire and be automatically lapsed without the Bank providing you with any further notification. In such a case, the Bank will not and is not obliged to proceed to act on such Withdrawal Instruction and shall not be liable in connection therewith.
    6. You may cancel your Withdrawal Instruction via the Mobile App before you scan the QR Code or enter the PIN. The Bank has the sole and absolute discretion to determine whether or not to accept any cancellation. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, you may not cancel the Withdrawal Instruction once you have activated the camera on the Mobile App and have commenced the scanning of the QR Code. The Bank shall not be liable in connection to any cancellation of, or failure to cancel, any Withdrawal Instruction.
    7. You should ensure there are available and sufficient funds in the Designated Bank Account in Hong Kong Dollars before executing a Withdrawal Instruction. The Transaction shall only proceed provided that the scanning of the QR Code and the PIN verification are successful and the Designated Bank Account has sufficient amount of cleared funds in Hong Kong Dollars set out in the Withdrawal Instruction. Otherwise, the Bank will not proceed to act on the Withdrawal Instruction and the Transaction will be rejected by the Bank or UnionPay.
    8. A SMS and an email notification will be sent by the Bank to your designated mobile phone number and designated email address respectively if the Transaction is successful. You may also check the Transaction record on the Mobile App.
    9. You shall ensure the amount of cash to be withdrawn as indicated in your Withdrawal Instruction does not fall below the Minimum Withdrawal Limit or exceed the Daily Aggregated Withdrawal Limit. The Withdrawal Instruction will be rejected if the amount of cash to be withdrawn falls below the Minimum Withdrawal Limit or if the Daily Aggregated Withdrawal Limit is exceeded or will be exceeded if the Bank accepts such Withdrawal Instruction.
    10. UnionPay or the other Network Operators may impose other limits and/or restrictions in relation to your use of the Service. UnionPay may, in its sole discretion, instruct the Bank to delay, suspend or reject any Withdrawal Instruction if such transaction limits and/or restrictions are not complied with.

Such Minimum Withdrawal Limit and Daily Aggregated Withdrawal Limit shall be set out on the Website. For details, please refer to the Website.

    5.2You acknowledge that apart from the Minimum Withdrawal Limit and Daily Aggregated Withdrawal Limit set by the Bank under Clause 5.1, the Transactions will also be subject to the minimum or maximum transaction limit for each UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATM which may vary depending on the withdrawal policy of UnionPay and/or other Network Operators. The Withdrawal Instruction at a UnionPay QRC Withdrawal ATM will be rejected if such transaction limit is not complied with.
