5. Your Telleroo E-Money Account

5.1 Telleroo E-Money Account

A Telleroo E-Money Account is a virtual prepaid account; e-money can only be issued on receipt of funds. The account can be pre-funded via Open Banking, BACS, CHAPS or Faster Payments. The e-money can be distributed as payments to Suppliers, Employees, HMRC, Charities and for purposes such as Loan repayments, Dividend distributions and other legitimate company payments or expenses. The funds can be held for an indefinite period. E-money is stored in GBP in exchange for corresponding funds on your behalf. Electronic Money is not the same as money held in a bank.
To ensure your money is safe, we hold your funds in segregated accounts, meaning we keep this separate from Telleroo’s funds. The funds are also ‘safeguarded’, meaning there are assurances from the bank that in the unlikely event Telleroo were to go out of business, the money is protected for use.

  • Telleroo will not use the funds received in exchange for Electronic Money that has been issued to lend to other persons or entities.
  • Electronic Money will not accrue interest for the user.
  • Electronic Money is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
  • It is not permitted to have a negative account balance.

If Telleroo becomes insolvent. Your e-money is protected by safeguarding, not by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS); e-money is not covered by the FSCS. If Telleroo became insolvent, an insolvency practitioner would be appointed to return the safeguarded funds to customers. You would expect to receive your funds back, although the insolvency practitioner may first deduct the costs of distributing them, and repayment may take time.

If our safeguarding bank becomes insolvent. Your funds are safeguarded in an account at ClearBank. In the unlikely event that ClearBank itself failed, it is possible that FSCS deposit protection could apply to the safeguarded funds and compensate eligible customers up to the FSCS limit (currently £120,000 per eligible person). This is not guaranteed: whether protection applies, and to whom, depends on the funds qualifying as an eligible deposit and on each customer being identifiable as entitled to a share, and any limit would take account of other deposits you may hold with ClearBank. You should not assume that your e-money is FSCS-protected.

      Your Telleroo account can be used for making Faster Payments in GBP, SEPA payments in EUR, ACH payments in USD and other currencies in local payment processing methods, along with outbound payments via the SWIFT network. Where you make a payment in a currency other than GBP, you authorise Telleroo to change the required GBP funds in your E-Money Account into the relevant currency and to send those funds to your intended recipient (a “Convert and Send”).

      Please refer to the Telleroo Help Centre for processing times and payment methods. By default, you may top up your account via bank transfer or Open Banking using a business bank account held in your registered business name. The account may also be funded by a related party, such as a Parent Company or a Shareholder, where this has been pre-agreed with Telleroo. Open Banking top-ups are facilitated through our integration with Yapily Connect LTD, an FCA-authorised Authorised Payment Institution (FRN 827001). By using this service, you agree to the Yapily Terms of Service and Privacy Notice. Telleroo’s role is limited to integrating with these services to enhance your payment experience.

      7.5 Third-Party Collections

      • Funding Your E-Money Account. By default, you may fund your Telleroo E-Money account from a business bank account held in your registered business name, or, where pre-agreed with Telleroo, from a related party such as a Parent Company or a Shareholder (see section 7.4).
      • Third-Party Collections. If we provide you with Third Party Payments or Pay-by-Link functionality, you are permitted to receive funds from third parties into your Telleroo E-Money account in connection with your legitimate business activities. Third parties who send funds to you via these methods do not have a contractual relationship with Telleroo. You are expected to use this functionality and your account responsibly and in line with these Terms and Conditions.
      • Delay of Funds: Suspected Financial Crime. Telleroo reserves the right to delay making funds available to you where we know, suspect, or have reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that doing so would constitute engagement in, or an attempt to facilitate, money laundering, terrorist financing and/or proliferation financing. This right arises under, and is consistent with, our obligations under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, the Terrorism Act 2000, and the Payment Services Regulations 2017 (Regulation 89(3)). Telleroo will act as quickly as reasonably possible to complete any necessary assessment and will make funds available to you as soon as we have concluded that doing so would not breach applicable financial crime legislation.
      • Consumer Duty Consideration. In exercising our rights under clause (c), we will have regard to the potential impact on customers, including circumstances where evidencing an underlying commercial relationship may be difficult or disproportionately burdensome. Where applicable, we will take a proportionate approach consistent with our obligations under FCA Consumer Duty principles.

      7.6 Making payments

      To make a Payment from your Telleroo account, all required fields must be populated with the relevant data. The payee field should have the registered name of the receiver, either:

      • Full name of the person you are sending money to.
      • Registered Business Name of the Entity you are sending money to.


      If the payee’s name does not match or any of the following criteria apply, the transaction may be delayed by up to 4 days. Telleroo may stop any incoming or outgoing payment if it does not follow the correct format or for other compliance reasons, such as:

      • Potential name match against a sanctioned party
      • High-value payment requiring documentation
      • Payment to the new payee without confirmation of the account name
      • Unusual activity on the account 
      • Other Compliance and Operational reasons

      If Telleroo blocks a payment due to any of the above, you will be contacted as soon as possible or in advance if possible to explain why we have refused to process the payment, unless Telleroo is prohibited by the law or security reasons to do so. In the event of this happening, it is your responsibility to ensure correct payee account details and payment amounts are provided when making any payment. You are responsible if you give us incorrect instructions or mistakenly instruct us to process the same payment more than once.

      7.7 Delays for Regulatory Checks

      Telleroo operates under statutory obligations to screen transactions for financial crime. The following clause sets out the basis on which payments may be delayed or blocked and Telleroo’s corresponding liability position.

      • Statutory Screening Obligations. We are legally required to screen transactions and account activity for fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crime. This screening is carried out in accordance with applicable UK legislation, including the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, the Terrorism Act 2000, and the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017. As a result of these obligations, payments may be paused or delayed while we conduct our assessments.
      • Limitation of Liability for Regulatory Delays. Telleroo is not liable for any losses, costs, third-party penalties, supplier charges, interest, or other damages that you incur if a transaction is delayed, paused, or blocked in order to meet our obligations under applicable financial crime legislation or regulatory requirements. This limitation applies even where such a delay results in late payment penalties or other charges from third parties. For the avoidance of doubt, this limitation does not apply to delays caused by Telleroo’s own operational failings unconnected to our regulatory obligations. This limitation is also subject to the carve-out in clause 7.7(c) below, under which Telleroo remains liable for certain charges or interest where it delays an outbound payment order in reliance on Regulation 86(2B) of the Payment Services Regulations 2017. See also section 11 (Limitation of Liability).
      • Telleroo’s Liability for Delayed Outbound Payments. Notwithstanding clause 7.7(b) (Limitation of Liability for Regulatory Delays) and section 11 (Limitation of Liability), where Telleroo delays the execution of an outbound payment order in reliance on Regulation 86(2B) of the Payment Services Regulations 2017, Telleroo remains liable to you for any charges or interest that you incur as a direct consequence of that delay, including charges levied by a third party for late payment, irrespective of whether the payment order is ultimately executed.

      7.8 Cancelling, Recalling, and Correcting Payments

      You can cancel any payments up to the point they have not yet been processed by Telleroo. Once a payment has been processed, there is no way to cancel it. If a payment is sent to an incorrect recipient or for an incorrect amount, a payment recall attempt can be started if the following caveats are met:

      • The payment has not been automatically returned to the sender.
      • Every attempt has been made by you to contact the recipient of the money to organise a return of any unwarranted money.
      • The amount in question is greater than £25.00.
      • You complete and provide Telleroo with any required information in a format of Telleroo’s choosing.

      We will try to help you recover the funds, but Telleroo accepts no responsibility for the success or failure of any payment recall attempt.

      Erroneous Credits and System Errors: If funds are credited to your account in error (e.g., due to a technical glitch, bank network error, or duplicate processing), you have no legal claim to those funds. We reserve the right to automatically reverse the transaction and deduct the erroneous amount from your balance without prior consent. If your balance is insufficient to cover the full reversal, you remain strictly liable for the shortfall. We may recover this owed amount by deducting it from your future deposits or requesting immediate repayment.

      7.9 Refunds and fraud

      In any circumstance, no refund will be issued if there has been any fraudulent activity on your part or if you didn’t take reasonable care in the protection of your login details. This includes, but is not limited to, situations where you did not keep your phone or security details safe, you were very negligent in keeping them secure, or you shared your password.

      If you are an eligible business (such as a micro-enterprise, small charity, or sole trader) and fall victim to an Authorised Push Payment (APP) fraud involving funds held in or transacted through your Telleroo account, you may be eligible for reimbursement under the Payment Systems Regulator’s mandatory reimbursement rules, subject to the eligibility criteria set out in those rules. Telleroo will process any such claims in accordance with our obligations under applicable PSR regulations. Please contact us promptly if you believe you have been the victim of APP fraud, and visit Telleroo’s App Fraud Reimbursement page to understand your eligibility and the scope of the reimbursement process.

      This clause sets out your obligations when using Telleroo’s Pay-by-Link functionality, and explains your rights in the event of disputed payments or instances of Authorised Push Payment (APP) fraud.

      • Legitimate Use. You agree to use payment links only for genuine, fulfilled business transactions. You must not generate or distribute payment links in connection with fraudulent, misleading, or unlawful activity.
      • Your Obligations When Using Pay-by-Link. You are responsible for the secure and appropriate management of any payment links generated. This includes ensuring that payment links are only shared with the intended recipients, that links are not distributed beyond the intended transaction, and that you take reasonable steps to verify the identity of the party you are collecting funds from, where appropriate. Telleroo provides Pay-by-Link functionality to support your business; you remain responsible for the commercial relationships and transactions underlying any payment collected.
      • Liability for Disputed Payments and Indemnity. You take full responsibility for all payments collected through your Telleroo account via Pay-by-Link. You agree to fully indemnify Telleroo against any losses, costs, or settlement amounts - including those arising under mandatory regulatory reimbursement schemes - where the relevant dispute, chargeback, or fraud claim arises directly from a payment link generated through your account and results from a failure on your part to comply with your obligations under clause (b) above or to conduct your business activities lawfully. For the avoidance of doubt, this indemnity does not affect your own right to reimbursement where you are the victim of APP fraud under section 7.9. The indemnity applies in the opposite situation - where a dispute, chargeback, or reimbursement obligation (including under the Payment Systems Regulator’s mandatory reimbursement rules) arises from a payment you collected and results from your failure to comply with clause (b) above or to conduct your business activities lawfully.
      • Right of Offset. If a payment collected via Pay-by-Link is disputed, recalled, or subject to a mandatory reimbursement order, Telleroo reserves the right to deduct the relevant amount (plus any directly associated fees or costs) from your Telleroo account balance. Where your balance is insufficient, we may recover the shortfall through any other means available to us under this agreement.
      • APP Fraud Reimbursement. Your rights and eligibility for reimbursement under the Payment Systems Regulator’s mandatory reimbursement rules in the event of APP fraud are set out in section 7.9.

      7.11 Periodic Refresh and Ongoing Verification

      Telleroo is subject to ongoing regulatory obligations that may require us to review your account activity and request updated information from you. Depending on your service and location, and potentially other compliance-related criteria, we will regularly inquire if there has been any change to your corporate structure and to your financial standing. The Telleroo compliance team will update the information we have from you to make sure our services remain suitable and to check if there have been any changes to your company (“Periodic Refresh”).

      • Keeping your information current. You are responsible for ensuring that the information you have provided to Telleroo - including your business details, contact information, and details of your beneficial owners and controllers - is kept accurate and up to date at all times. You must notify us promptly of any material change to this information.
      • Additional evidence and verification tools. If we need to conduct a more detailed review of your account activity, we may ask you to provide additional supporting documentation or require that you use specific verification tools or systems that we may specify from time to time to support automated risk monitoring.
      • Cooperation and consequences of non-compliance. If we don’t receive confirmation that your information is up to date or details of any changes within a reasonable timeframe, if you fail to provide the information or documentation we request within a reasonable timeframe, or if we are unable to satisfy our compliance obligations with the information available to us, we won’t be able to continue providing you with our services and we reserve the right to restrict some or all features of your account, suspend your access to our services, or terminate this agreement in accordance with our standard termination provisions.

      8. Account Charges

      8.1 Pricing

      The fees charged by Telleroo for the use of the Telleroo platform are based upon:

      • Your account is subject to a monthly subscription fee that is dependent on the number of transactions made in that calendar month. The fees are available upon request.
      • You will be charged based on the number of transactions you make each month and your pricing package, and any unused payments cannot be carried over to the following months.
      • The transactions count as all payments sent out of your Telleroo account via a local payment method, e.g. Faster Payments for GBP, SEPA for EUR and ACH for USD.
      • You will always be charged a subscription fee based on the number of transactions you make in a given month, regardless of the fee from the previous month.
      • A charge of £25 will be levied for any payment into your Telleroo account paid via CHAPS.
      • A charge of £15 will be levied for any outbound payment from your Telleroo account via SWIFT.

      8.2 Customer-specific fees

      The Customer is liable only for those Fees set out in its individual pricing arrangement or otherwise notified to it in writing.

      Fees may reflect the Customer’s risk classification, the nature of its business, and transaction volumes and values. Accordingly, Fees may differ between customers, and some customers may not be charged certain Fees at all. Any additional or bespoke Fees applicable to a higher-risk Customer will apply only where set out in that Customer’s individual pricing arrangement or notified to it in writing before they take effect.

      8.3 Dispute and Chargeback Administration Fees

      This clause sets out the circumstances in which Telleroo may apply additional fees in connection with high volumes of disputed transactions.

      • Standard Dispute Handling. Telleroo will process chargebacks, recalls, and similar dispute cases as part of its standard service. We will not charge additional fees for the first twelve (12) such cases in any rolling twelve-month period.
      • Excess Dispute Fee. In the event that the volume of chargebacks, payment recalls, or similar dispute processes attributable to your account exceeds twelve (12) in any rolling twelve-month period, in circumstances where you have not been the victim of fraud, Telleroo reserves the right to apply an administration fee of £35 (plus applicable VAT) per case for each subsequent case in that period. This fee reflects the increased operational, administrative, and compliance burden on Telleroo arising from the investigation, handling, regulatory reporting, and third-party liaison required to process each such case.
      • Notice. Where applicable, Telleroo will notify you when the twelve-case threshold has been reached and will confirm that the excess fee applies to any further cases in that period.

      8.4 Billing and disputes

      Telleroo charges aren’t deducted directly from your Telleroo account. Instead, you will receive a monthly invoice via email for the preceding month. Billing is done via Direct Debit, and upon receipt, the invoice is payable within 10 days. If you wish to change the email we send invoices to, please contact us at support@telleroo.com to request this. For any dispute regarding the number of transactions carried out, Telleroo’s record of transactions will be classed as definitive and correct. All charges should be paid whilst the dispute is ongoing, and both parties will act in good faith to resolve the issue in question. Any unpaid, undisputed amount will accrue interest at a rate of 3% above the Bank of England base rate.

      8.5 Annual price review

      • Annual Price Increases: The prices for our services are subject to an annual increase, effective from the 1st of April each year. The increase will be up to a maximum value of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) for September of the previous calendar year, plus an additional 5%.
      • Notification of Price Increase: We will notify you of any price increase in writing no later than the 1st of January each year. The new prices will apply from the 1st of April.
      • Right to Terminate: If you do not agree with the price increase, you may terminate your subscription in accordance with our Termination terms and close your account prior to 1st of April each year.

Our Supplier’s Due Diligence Process includes the following particulars:

      • Suppliers should comply with the industry’s IT security practices comparable to the ISO/IEC 27000 series.
      • Suppliers should regularly perform internal audits or engage an appropriately accredited third party that follows good industry practice or use other security checks to carry out security scans, such as penetration testing, to assess the effectiveness of the Supplier’s cyber and information technology security measures.
      • Suppliers should provide us with information about their server location and the safeguards applied.

      Telleroo will promptly notify you if it becomes aware of any unauthorised or unlawful processing, loss of, damage to, disclosure of, access to or destruction of your Personal Data (“Data Breach”) and provide you with full cooperation, information and assistance in respect of any Data Breach.

These parties engaging with Telleroo will be required to complete a Data Sharing Form to document the lawful purpose, scope, and safeguards for the transfer or exchange of Personal Data (in line with ICO guidance).

      14. Assignment, Charging and Security Interests

      This clause is introduced to protect Telleroo’s operational integrity and to prevent the imposition of obligations arising from third-party security arrangements over customer accounts.

      • Prohibition. You must not, without our prior written consent, assign, transfer, charge, pledge, mortgage, or otherwise create any security interest or encumbrance over your Telleroo account, your account balance, or any rights you hold under this agreement. This prohibition includes, but is not limited to, fixed charges, floating charges, debentures, and any other form of security instrument, whether granted in favour of a lender, security agent, or any other third party.
      • Immediate Termination Trigger. Any actual or purported assignment, charge, or creation of a security interest over your Telleroo account or account balance without our prior written consent shall constitute a material breach of this agreement and shall entitle Telleroo, at its sole discretion, to immediately terminate this agreement and close your account(s) without further notice. This right is in addition to Telleroo’s termination rights under section 15. Telleroo shall not be required to accept, acknowledge, or act upon any instruction from a third-party security agent or lender in connection with your account.
      • Waiver of Third-Party Acknowledgement. Telleroo shall not be obligated to execute, sign, or return any form of account bank acknowledgement, control agreement, or similar instrument in favour of any third-party lender or security agent, and expressly reserves the right to decline to do so.
      • Return of Balances on Termination. Upon termination of your account under this clause or otherwise, Telleroo will return any remaining balance to an account held in your registered business name, subject to any right of set-off, deduction of outstanding fees, or other amounts owed to Telleroo under this agreement. Telleroo shall not be liable for any loss arising from its exercise of these rights.

      15. Termination

      Telleroo reserves the right to terminate or suspend user accounts at its discretion, for reasons including:

      • Immediately, and without prior notice, if we reasonably suspect that your account has been used for fraudulent purposes, money laundering, terrorist financing, or if processing a transaction would result in a breach of UK or international Sanctions. In such cases, Telleroo reserves the right to freeze the funds in your Telleroo E-Money Account pending regulatory investigation, and we may be prohibited by law from disclosing the reason for this action.
      • As per your confirmation, if the account is no longer required.
      • With at least 90 days’ written notice for other reasons, such as debt, breach of Telleroo’s Terms and Conditions, or unreasonable behaviour. In such instances, we will provide you with a sufficiently detailed and specific explanation of the reasons for the account closure, along with instructions on how you can make a complaint against the termination if you disagree.

      In addition to the grounds above, Telleroo may immediately terminate this agreement and close your account(s) under section 14(b) (Assignment, Charging and Security Interests) where you create, or purport to create, an unauthorised assignment, charge, or security interest over your account.

      You can close your account at any time. To close your account, the following steps need to be completed:

      • The balance in the E-Money account is zero (£0.00).
      • Disconnect any automatic feeds between the Telleroo platform and any third-party software.
      • You must submit a request to close your account using the online form found in Telleroo’s help centre at https://help.telleroo.com/en/articles/5989183-closing-account  or any other approved method as designated by Telleroo.
      • You must pay any outstanding charges owed to Telleroo.

      Your account will be closed when all of the above steps have been fulfilled. Failure to do so may result in you continuing to be charged for the use of the Telleroo Platform.

      16. Changes to Terms

      Telleroo reserves the right to update or modify these terms and conditions at any time. If we make any changes, we will give you two months’ written notice by email or in-app. You will be deemed to have accepted any change to these terms and conditions unless you notify us of any objection before the proposed date of the change. In that case, we’ll close your account without charge before the changes come into effect, and you’ll need to settle any outstanding charges. If we change these terms and conditions, the new terms and conditions will be available at www.telleroo.com/terms-conditions from the date the change takes place. Changes that make these terms and conditions more favourable to you may, at Telleroo’s discretion, come into effect immediately after relevant notice.
