Last Updated: 01-04-2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to GRD PAYMENTS.

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the GRD PAYMENTS mobile application, website, and related digital services ("Services").

By registering, downloading, accessing, or using GRD PAYMENTS, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms and Conditions.

If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use GRD PAYMENTS.

2. Services

GRD PAYMENTS provides digital services that may include:

  • Mobile Recharge

  • DTH Recharge

  • Utility & Bill Payments

  • Other digital services made available through the platform from time to time

Certain Services and transactions are processed through telecom operators, DTH providers, billers, banks, payment gateways, API providers, aggregators, and other third-party service providers.

Therefore, transaction processing, service availability, final transaction status, and reversal/refund eligibility may depend on the respective third-party service provider.

GRD PAYMENTS reserves the right to add, modify, temporarily suspend, or discontinue any Service when required.

3. License to Use

Subject to compliance with these Terms, GRD PAYMENTS grants users a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable right to access and use the application and Services for their intended lawful purposes.

Users may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, reproduce, redistribute, resell, or misuse the application or its proprietary components except where expressly permitted by applicable law.

4. Account Registration & Security

To access GRD PAYMENTS Services, users may be required to create and maintain a registered account.

Users agree to:

  • Provide accurate, complete, and current registration information.

  • Maintain the confidentiality of their Username, Password, OTP, PIN, and other account credentials.

  • Not share account credentials with unauthorized persons.

  • Immediately report suspected unauthorized access.

  • Accept responsibility for activities performed through their account, subject to applicable law.

GRD PAYMENTS may request additional verification where required for account security, fraud prevention, regulatory compliance, or transaction verification.

5. User Obligations

Users must use GRD PAYMENTS only for lawful and legitimate purposes.

Users shall not:

  • Use the platform for fraudulent or illegal activities.

  • Attempt unauthorized access to GRD PAYMENTS systems or another user's account.

  • Interfere with, damage, manipulate, or disrupt the application.

  • Submit fake, altered, manipulated, or misleading transaction proof.

  • Make fraudulent refund or complaint claims.

  • Use the platform in violation of applicable laws or service-provider requirements.

Where there is reasonable evidence of misuse, fraud, or a security risk, GRD PAYMENTS may restrict or suspend the applicable account subject to applicable law.

6. Recharge & Bill Payment – User Responsibility

Before confirming any transaction, users are responsible for carefully verifying all details.

This includes:

  • Mobile Number

  • Mobile Operator

  • Recharge Amount

  • Recharge Plan

  • DTH Customer ID / Subscriber ID

  • DTH Operator

  • Consumer Number

  • Account Number

  • Biller

  • Bill Amount

  • Other applicable transaction or beneficiary details

Users must verify all details before selecting Recharge, Pay, Submit, or Confirm.

7. Wrong Mobile Number / DTH / Bill Details – NO REFUND

IMPORTANT

Users are solely responsible for providing correct recharge and bill-payment information.

If a user enters an incorrect:

  • Mobile Number

  • DTH Customer ID / Subscriber ID

  • Consumer Number

  • Account Number

  • Operator

  • Biller

  • Recharge Plan

  • Recharge Amount

  • Bill details

  • Or any other transaction information

and the transaction is successfully processed using the details entered by the user, GRD PAYMENTS cannot cancel, modify, transfer, or refund the transaction merely because incorrect information was entered by the user.

This includes:

  • Recharge completed to the wrong Mobile Number.

  • Recharge completed to the wrong DTH account.

  • Bill payment completed against the wrong Consumer Number.

  • Bill payment completed against an incorrect Account Number.

  • Wrong operator selected.

  • Wrong recharge plan selected.

  • Wrong recharge amount entered.

  • Any other successful transaction caused by incorrect information entered or confirmed by the user.

GRD PAYMENTS shall not be responsible for financial loss resulting from incorrect transaction details entered or confirmed by the user.

Once a transaction has been successfully processed against the information provided by the user, it generally cannot be transferred from one Mobile Number, DTH account, Consumer Number, or beneficiary to another.

8. Successful Transactions

A transaction confirmed as SUCCESSFUL by the respective operator, biller, aggregator, or service provider will generally be considered successfully completed.

If a user reports that the recharge/service benefit was not received despite a successful transaction status, GRD PAYMENTS may assist in checking or raising the issue with the relevant operator/service provider.

However, submitting a complaint does not automatically make a successful transaction eligible for a refund.

A refund or reversal will depend on verification and the final transaction status or reversal confirmation received from the applicable operator/service provider.

9. Recharge Complaints & Required Proof

If a user experiences a genuine recharge or transaction-related issue, the user must provide complete and valid information required for verification.

Depending on the issue, GRD PAYMENTS may require:

  • Transaction ID / Reference ID

  • Mobile Number / DTH ID / Consumer Number

  • Operator / Biller

  • Transaction Amount

  • Transaction Date and Time

  • Transaction Status

  • Relevant screenshots

  • Operator confirmation, where applicable

  • Other supporting evidence reasonably required for verification

A complaint without sufficient and valid proof may not be processed.

Incomplete, incorrect, unclear, or insufficient information may delay or prevent complaint verification.

10. Complaint Verification & Processing – Up to 7 Working Days

Once GRD PAYMENTS receives complete and valid transaction details and all required supporting proof, the complaint will be checked and processed.

Recharge-related complaints may require up to seven (7) working days for verification and processing.

The seven-working-day period begins only after all required and valid information and supporting proof have been received.

Verification may depend on transaction records and information or confirmation received from the relevant operator, biller, aggregator, API provider, or other service provider.

The seven (7) working days are for complaint verification and processing. This does not guarantee that every complaint will result in a refund.

11. Refunds & Reversals

A transaction may be considered for refund/reversal where:

  • The transaction fails after the applicable amount has been deducted.

  • A pending transaction is subsequently confirmed as failed or reversed.

  • The relevant operator/service provider officially confirms or processes a reversal.

  • An eligible technical failure results in a reversal from the applicable service provider.

Refunds will generally not be provided where:

  • The transaction is confirmed as successful.

  • The user entered the wrong Mobile Number.

  • The user entered the wrong DTH ID.

  • The user entered the wrong Consumer Number / Account Number.

  • The user selected the wrong operator or biller.

  • The user selected the wrong recharge amount or plan.

  • The service was successfully delivered.

  • The user changes their mind after a successful transaction.

  • Fake, edited, manipulated, or misleading proof is submitted.

  • The applicable operator/service provider does not approve or process a reversal for an otherwise successful transaction.

Where an eligible reversal is received, the applicable amount may be credited back to the user's GRD PAYMENTS wallet/account or processed through another applicable method depending on the transaction.

12. Recharge Transaction History – Two Calendar Months

GRD PAYMENTS maintains user-accessible recharge transaction history in the App/system for only the latest two (2) calendar months.

For example, if the current month is September, the recharge transaction history available in the system/app may generally be limited to August and September.

Users who require transaction records for a longer period are responsible for regularly saving, downloading, exporting, screenshotting, or otherwise maintaining their own transaction records.

GRD PAYMENTS does not guarantee that ordinary recharge transaction history older than two (2) calendar months will remain available or retrievable through the App.

Where certain records are required to be retained separately for legal, regulatory, accounting, taxation, audit, fraud-prevention, security, dispute-resolution, or compliance purposes, such records may be retained as required or permitted by applicable law.

Such retention does not mean that those records will remain available as ordinary user-accessible recharge history.

13. Third-Party Services & Operator Dependency

GRD PAYMENTS may depend on:

  • Telecom operators

  • DTH providers

  • Billers

  • Banks

  • Payment gateways

  • API providers

  • Aggregators

  • Technology/infrastructure providers

  • Other third-party service providers

GRD PAYMENTS does not directly control third-party systems, servers, processing times, technical availability, transaction-status decisions, or reversal processes.

Temporary downtime, maintenance, operator delays, server issues, network failures, or other third-party technical problems may affect Services.

GRD PAYMENTS will make reasonable efforts to assist with genuine transaction-related issues but cannot independently reverse a transaction successfully processed by a third-party service provider where no reversal is available.

14. Commission, Margin & Offers

Any commission, margin, incentive, cashback, promotional benefit, or offer available through GRD PAYMENTS may depend on operator/service-provider policies and prevailing company terms.

Applicable commission rates, margins, incentives, and offers may be increased, decreased, revised, suspended, or discontinued when required.

The commission or benefit applicable to an eligible transaction will be determined according to the prevailing applicable terms at the time of the transaction.

15. Intellectual Property Rights

All GRD PAYMENTS branding, logos, application software, graphics, designs, text, content, and other proprietary materials are owned by or licensed to GRD PAYMENTS and are protected under applicable intellectual property laws.

Users may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, sell, or commercially exploit GRD PAYMENTS intellectual property without authorization.

GRD PAYMENTS may process information reasonably necessary for:

  • Account creation and management

  • Transaction processing

  • Transaction verification

  • Customer support

  • Fraud prevention

  • Complaint investigation

  • Legal and regulatory compliance

Users should refer to the GRD PAYMENTS Privacy Policy for further information regarding the collection, use, processing, and retention of personal information.

  • Fraudulent activity

  • Platform misuse

  • Unauthorized account activity

  • Fake or manipulated transaction proof

  • Fraudulent refund/complaint requests

  • Security threats

  • Violation of these Terms

  • Violation of applicable laws or regulatory requirements

Additional verification may be requested before restoring account access.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited under applicable law.

19. Disclaimer of Warranties

GRD PAYMENTS Services are provided on an "as available" basis, subject to applicable law.

While reasonable efforts are made to maintain reliable Services, GRD PAYMENTS cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability of every Service because certain Services depend on external operators and third-party systems.

GRD PAYMENTS does not guarantee that:

  • Every Service will always be available without interruption.

  • Third-party operators or billers will always process transactions instantly.

  • Third-party systems will always be free from technical issues.

  • Every transaction complaint will result in a refund.
