At any time, you or someone on your behalf can add value to your Account through the mechanism we specify. Predominantly, PayTo will be used to give effect to your Available Balance and Purchase Transactions. You can find instructions for how you can add value to your Account in the AMP Citro App. We may also add new ways to deposit funds into your Account in the future and we will publish these ways in the AMP Citro App. We encourage you to check the AMP Citro App from time to time for this and other important information. Payments to your Account will be credited to your Available Balance when they have cleared.

6.3. ATM withdrawals
You can withdraw cash from your Account using your physical Card at any ATM up to the limit that applies for ATM transactions. There are no fees charged by Hay for using ATMs. However, you may be charged fees by financial institutions or ATM providers when using their ATMs.
6.4. Card transactions
You can use your Card to make payments anywhere that Visa Debit cards are accepted, subject to restrictions set out in these Terms. The Card may not presently be used for Buy Now Pay Later purchases. We may block certain merchants, such as identified high-risk merchants, or other merchants and merchant category codes from time to time. Some merchants are blocked by the payment system providers directly, including Visa, PayTo, and BPay. If we decide to block a merchant, that decision is made at our sole discretion, and a list of blocked merchants or merchant category codes is available upon request. If you use your Card for a transaction where the merchant or merchant category code is blocked, the transaction will be declined. Your Account will not be debited for the value of the declined transaction.
Within Australia, you can make contactless transactions under $100 without using your PIN. Contactless limits may vary in different countries. Like with any transaction, please make sure you check the amount is correct on the terminal before authorizing a contactless transaction. Use of the Card’s magnetic stripe is disabled and not available.
We will deduct the amount of any transaction using your Card from your Available Balance. You cannot stop payment on a transaction after it has been completed. For mistaken or disputed payments, please refer to clause 10 of these Terms and Conditions. We do not allow negative balances in your Account. If you do not have sufficient balance in your Account, any negative balance becomes immediately due and payable.
In the event your Account falls into a negative balance, we will immediately withdraw the total amount required from your Account to return it to a zero balance. This may include utilizing any or all available balance accrued from cashback or other means, without requiring your explicit consent to do this. In the event your Account does not have a sufficient balance to cover the total negative balance amount, we will continue to attempt to process the outstanding amount from your linked Account. We will decline any further transactions until the Account is able to meet its financial obligations. It is your obligation to ensure that you have sufficient Available Balance to complete a transaction.
Sometimes a transaction cannot be processed due to reasons outside of our control, including where there are network issues which may affect the relevant payment terminal. We are not responsible where a transaction authorization is declined for any reason, except to the extent caused by our negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct (or that of our employees or agents).
6.5. PayTo transactions
You can pay money into your Account and make payments from it in near real-time using PayTo when the sending or receiving financial institution also supports PayTo.
This is your PayTo Service Agreement with us. It explains what your obligations are when establishing a PayTo payment agreement. It also details what our obligations are to you. Where your Linked Account is eligible for PayTo we will prompt you in the AMP Citro App to set up.

7. BPay
7.1. Pay
BPay Payments from Your Account
Hay Limited is an authorised participant of the BPay Scheme which enables you to use BPay.
To initiate BPay payments from your Account:
1. Initiate a payment via BPay using the AMP Citro App.
2. Enter the correct Biller Code and your unique Customer Reference Number (CRN) and confirm their accuracy.
3. Ensure you have an available balance to cover the payment and any related fees at the time your payment instruction is acted upon by Hay.
4. These Card and Account Terms and Conditions issued by Hay and the AMP Citro Rewards Terms and Conditions issued by Citro will apply.
For BPAY payments using the AMP Citro App, Citro acts on behalf of Hay to arrange the facility through which the BPAY payment is made. Hay is not obliged to process a BPay payment if any of the above information is not available or inaccurate.
7.2. About BPay
BPay is an Australian electronic bill payment system, that enables consumers to pay bills using their banking services.
i. The BPay scheme is an electronic payments scheme through which you initiate BPay payments to billers who are registered to accept BPay payments through the BPay scheme. Through the Hay Limited issued products, you have access to specific BPay services to initiate payments.
ii. Hay is an authorised participant of the BPay scheme and offers this capability as the issuer of the Card and Account. We will inform you if we cease to become a member and this capability is no longer available.
iii. The terms and conditions set out in this section apply when you initiate a payment through the BPay Scheme with Hay.
7.3. Using the BPay scheme
When you initiate a BPay payment, the following conditions are present and information must be provided at the time of your instruction, unless otherwise specified in these Terms and Conditions or the AMP Citro Rewards Terms and Conditions:
• the correct BPay biller code of the biller to be paid;
• the amount of the BPay payment;
• the biller customer reference number;
• the date you wish to initiate the payment;
• the payment frequency; and
• the appropriate funds are available in your account at the time of acting on your BPay payment instruction (one-time or recurring).
You acknowledge and accept that a BPay payment could fail or be paid incorrectly if you do not provide all the information or provide inaccurate information.
If all the required information is successfully provided, your Account will be debited with the amount of that BPay payment on the date you have provided or otherwise in accordance with these Terms and Conditions or the AMP Citro Rewards Terms and Conditions.
You will be unable to initiate the BPay payment when your available balance does not contain sufficient funds at the time the payment is to be initiated.
7.4. BPay Scheme Payments
BPay operates as a batch processing payment system, which means transactions are accumulated over a period and processed collectively at predetermined times. Financial institutions collect and send payment instructions in batches, usually at the end of the business day, streamlining the payment process between financial institutions and ensuring funds are transferred systematically.
Once you have submitted a BPay instruction, it cannot be stopped. If your instruction has been made in error, you will need to follow the steps in Clause 7.5 immediately as there are no BPay payment chargeback rights.
The processing of a BPay payment may be delayed where:
• there is a public or bank holiday on the day a BPay payment is to be initiated by Hay;
• you tell Hay to initiate a BPay payment on a non-business day;
• another financial institution participating in the BPay scheme does not comply with its obligations under the BPay scheme; and
• a biller fails to comply with its obligations under the BPay scheme.
Although any BPay payment processing delay is not expected to continue for more than one business day, you acknowledge and accept that a delay may continue for a longer period.
7.5. Incorrect payment amount to a biller
If you believe that you have made a mistake in a BPay payment, you must contact the AMP Citro support team as soon as possible so that we can identify and assess the transaction.
If you discover that you have given an incorrect payment amount instruction to BPay:
• contact the biller directly for a refund if the amount you instructed BPay to pay is greater than the required amount,
• initiate a further BPay payment to the biller for the difference, if the amount is less than the required amount.
7.6. Biller unable to process a payment
If your BPay payment cannot be processed by a biller, you will be notified, and your Account credited for the amount of the BPay payment.
7.7. Suspension of BPay
If at any time in the future continued use of the BPay service may cause loss to you or Hay elect to not continue with the service, Hay may:
• suspend or cancel your right to use BPay in relation to a particular Biller; and
• suspend or cancel your registration to use BPay without prior notice.
7.8. Processing Times
BPay payments made on a Saturday, Sunday or Public Holidays are processed on the next business day. BPay payments may take longer if the biller does not process a payment as soon as they receive its details.
7.9. Liability for mistaken payments, unauthorised or fraudulent transactions
• You must notify the AMP Citro support team immediately if:
o you become aware that you may have made a mistake (except in relation to the BPay payment amount – see Incorrect payment amount to a biller section above) when instructing Hay to initiate a BPay payment;
o you did not authorise nor initiate the BPay payment from your Account;
o you believe the BPay payment was not processed as per your initiation instructions (including delays);
o you think you have been fraudulently induced to initiate a BPay payment.
• The AMP Citro support team will advise Hay, who will work with the relevant parties to rectify any issues with your BPay payment in the way described in this clause.
• If a BPay payment is made on your Account without your knowledge or consent, liability for that unauthorised BPay payment will be determined in accordance with these terms. Otherwise, except as outlined in this clause, neither the Distributor (Citro) nor Issuer (Hay) will be liable for any loss or damage you suffer as a result of using the BPay scheme.
8. Fees
Current fees and charges that apply to your Card and Account can be found in the PDS, accessible here: www.ampcitro.com.au/pds.

It is important that you keep your AMP Citro App, Card information, PIN and Passcode secure.
10. Responsibility for mistaken or unauthorised transactions

You will not be responsible for Unauthorised Transactions:
• that occur before your Card is issued to you;

We may consider that you have contributed to an Unauthorised Transaction where:

• there was an unreasonable delay in reporting any unauthorised or mistaken payments.

• transactions where you never received the relevant goods or services;
• transactions where the purchase price differs to the purchase amount; or
• you think a transaction may have been duplicated.
13. Card and Account cancellation by Us

If we become aware that you have not done what you’ve agreed to do as set out in these Terms we may suspend or cancel your Card and Account. If this happens, we will let you know as soon as possible and refund any Available Balance to your nominated bank account, except where there is no Available Balance and your Account is overdrawn, upon the occurrence of which the overdrawn amount becomes immediately due and payable and Hay’s right to payment of the overdrawn amount from you is assigned to Citro and for the purpose of Citro’s legitimate business interests, you agree to do all things necessary to perfect the assignment of rights. Any bonus or promotional Rewards funded by Citro will not be refunded upon Card and Account cancellation or suspension and will be forfeited.
14. Card Expiry
The expiry date is shown on your Card. We will contact you prior to the expiry date to let you know next steps for continuing to use your Card after the expiry date.
15. How to close your Card and Account
You can close your Card and Account at any time by emailing AMP Citro Support team at support@ampcitro.com.au or by calling the AMP Citro Support team between 09:00 am – 05:00 pm Australian Eastern Time from Monday to Friday on 1300 583 156. We may need to call you to verify your identity as the Account holder. We will not be able to process your request until we are reasonably satisfied of your identity.

We will assist you with any balance transfers at the time of closure that is not linked to pending settlement. There is a period where we have pending transactions and need to wait for all payments and transactions undertaken by you to be settled before your Account is finally closed.
You will remain liable for any transactions that were not processed, or that occur, on your Account (including, but not limited to, outstanding merchant purchases) at the time the Account is closed.
Once the Account is closed and we are satisfied that all outstanding transactions have been presented and settled, we will refund you the Available Balance to your nominated bank account. Any bonus or promotional Rewards funded by Citro in your Account will be forfeited and will not be refunded.

17. Limits and responsibility
Hay is responsible for things that occur that are our fault. This includes things like your Available Balance being incorrectly debited due to our error.
