User Registration

Before DFX’s financial services can be used, the customer must register via the DFX app or on the payment page. Registration is free of charge and leads to the creation of a user profile after acceptance of the current terms and conditions. In addition, a non-custody wallet is created. DFX has no access to this, only the customer. When a customer registers, the information and documents that the customer must submit to DFX and the maximum amount for which the customer can buy or sell, respectively, stake cryptocurrencies depend on his identification level: Registration is basically done via the blockchain address, specifying the customer’s email or phone number. This registration is considered standard – light KYC (Know-your-Customer) – and allows the customer to buy/sell cryptocurrencies up to a limit of 1,000 Swiss francs (CHF) / 900 euros (EUR). Transfers of cryptocurrencies to a non-verified public address are not accepted. For the purchase/sale of cryptocurrencies above 1,000 Swiss Francs (CHF) / 900 Euros (EUR), more detailed registration is required, which is considered an Extended – full KYC (Know-your-Customer) – process. As part of this process, the following information in particular must be disclosed to DFX:

  • Address, with their proof of delivery of a letter to the specified address..
  • Copy of identification document (ID card or passport), which must have a signature, a legible MRZ code and a photo.
  • Current photo of the customer.
  • Duly completed DFX registration form (so-called chatbot form according to the specifications of the Association for Quality Assurance of Financial Services (VQF)).
  • Properly completed beneficial owner form.
  • First transaction from a bank account in the customer’s name to DFX.
  • In case of registration of the customer by phone number, the customer has to confirm the code received by SMS (so called TAN code) to DFX.

Up to which limit the purchases/sales of cryptocurrencies will be executed, will be decided user-specific by DFX. Detailed information is available from support. DFX reserves the right to conduct a video conference to verify the customer’s identity, including if: DFX believes that the documentation provided is incomplete; the customer’s place of residence or business is in a country of risk; or the first transaction made on the part of the customer was from a country of risk or through a bank account not in the customer’s name. The complete and correct submission and validation of these documents is required for the initial purchase and sale of cryptocurrencies as well as for the conversion of cryptocurrencies, or at any time DFX may request without giving reasons. The data provided must be complete and valid at all times. Changes to personal data as well as all data underlying the light or full KYC must be communicated by the customers to DFX without delay. DFX will never ask customers for such customer-related information by e-mail or telephone and will never disclose the password to third parties. Such requests are to be ignored and reported to DFX. Customers are not authorized to allow others to access their account. They are responsible for all activities performed with their respective account. DFX reserves the right to refuse any registration without giving any reason, as well as to exclude any registered customer and to terminate the business relationship. This right exists explicitly if DFX determines in the course of its checks that a customer is on a FATF list (black or gray), has been convicted of a criminal offense or sanctioned in connection with an administrative proceeding, or if criminal or administrative proceedings are pending against the customer. Furthermore, DFX reserves the right to terminate the business relationship if DFX would violate mandatory regulations, in particular Swiss and international sanction regulations, due to the business relationship with the customer. DFX also reserves the right to refuse the execution of a transaction in such cases. Blocked customers may not re-register via the DFX app or payments page. If they do so, these users may be subject to criminal prosecution. Only natural persons or legal entities may register via the DFX app or the payment page. Natural persons must also be capable of acting (capable of judgement and at least 18 years old). Persons under 18 years of age may not register on the website. Each customer profile is unique, personal and non-transferable. The creation and use of multiple accounts by the same person is prohibited. Customers may delete or deactivate their account at any time by submitting a request to DFX technical support. DFX is obliged to keep records of transactions for ten years. This period starts from the end of the execution of the transactions or, if more than one transaction forms a whole, from the end of the last transaction. Only after the expiration of this ten-year retention period will the account finally be deleted.

Conditions for the purchase of cryptocurrencies

The Customer shall execute the purchase following the instructions in the DFX App or on the DFX Payment page, respectively. In order to initiate a purchase, the customer must create a corresponding payment route. In doing so, the customer has: Select “Wallet” as the type; Specify as “Asset” the cryptocurrency he wants to buy; Specify a [blockchain address (for crypto-to-crypto transactions)] respectively an IBAN of a bank account that is valid and freely available to the customer; If an invalid address/account or an address/account that does not belong to the customer is provided, the funds may be lost.

Customer shall pay for the cost of any investigation, which shall take into account the technical complexity and time required for the investigation. The system will then generate for the customer the so-called route details consisting of the specific details of the type, asset, IBAN, payment purpose [XXXX-XXXX-XXXX, where the “X” represent capital letters or numbers], fee, volume and annual volume. Specifying the payment purpose generated in the route details, the customer then transfers from his bank account, whose IBAN he has specified to DFX [respectively from his wallet, whose blockchain address he has specified to DFX], the amount he wishes to convert into (other) cryptocurrencies to DFX. The transfer can be made in currencies such as Euros, US Dollars or Swiss Francs, or any other currency eligible for the transaction, by bank transfer or by any other means of payment available on DFX’s website.

Risks

DFX points out that the cryptocurrencies offered are on various blockchains, such as the DeFiChain, Bitcoin Blockchain, Ethereum Blockchain and Binance Smart Chain. Decentralised Finance is a novel construct where it is not yet fully clear what the legal and regulatory implications will be for users and businesses in this business space.

DFX always complies with current Swiss law and is in constant exchange with the authorities to implement this. DFX reserves the right to suspend the trading of individual cryptocurrencies at any time or to add further cryptocurrencies or products to its offering. Customers of the DFX Brokerage Service are not entitled to trade cryptocurrencies if they have previously been suspended from trading. This also applies if these cryptocurrencies have previously been purchased via the DFX Brokerage Service.

Furthermore, cryptocurrencies that originate from the Decentralized Finance construct, e.g. by trading on a Decentralized Exchange (DEX) or by an exchange through an Atomic Swap, may be declared as Coins with increased risk and may be treated differently in the future than Coins that have not been in such DeFi protocols. DFX has no influence on how the DeFi market will be regulated in the future and what consequences the use of DeFi protocols may have for users in the future. DFX cannot guarantee to continue operating the service at all times, nor can DFX guarantee to take back coins sold should the regulatory environment change.

Specific information on DeFiChain products:
DeFiChain is a project in the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) business segment.
Attention, we buy this asset on the DEX and cannot guarantee an exchange rate! Prices on the DEX can be significantly lower or higher than on other exchanges, which can also have a negative impact on the exchange rate.

When buying dToken assets on the DeFiChain, please note that if you want to exchange them back into crypto tokens (DFI, dBTC, dETH…), stable coins (dUSDC, dUSDT) or sell them via DFX against FIAT (EUR, USD, FR…) at a later date, a DEX stabilization fee of currently approx. 12% will be charged. In the case of a later exchange within the dToken (dUSD, dTSLA, dAMZN, dCOIN …), the aforementioned DEX stabilization fee does not apply.

Partial invalidity and choice of law

Should any clause of the General Terms and Conditions be void, annulled or otherwise invalid, the validity of the remaining General Terms and Conditions shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

Applicable law and place of jurisdiction

The General Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Swiss law, excluding the conflict of law provisions of Switzerland or the Customer’s actual country or state of (residence) domicile. Any dispute arising out of or in relation to the General Terms and Conditions, Customer’s relationship with DFX, including non-contractual obligations, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Zug, Switzerland.
