12.5Cashback terms

    Cashback is a reward for reaching deposit goals. There are separate goals for PayPal Friends and Family deposits and for SEPA bank deposits (Open banking or SEPA transfer). Cashback is paid to the Client's Rewards balance and follows the same withdrawal rules as the rest of that balance.
  2. 2
    The goals and their rewards are set by YourCryptoPal and may be changed or stopped at any time, without notice. A change applies to deposits completed after it.
  3. 2.1
    A reward is paid only if its goal is reached while that list of goals is running. A goal reached while its list is stopped, or while cashback is stopped for the Client, is not paid later.
  4. 3
    PayPal deposits and SEPA bank deposits are counted separately: a deposit counts only toward the goals of its own kind.
  5. 3.1
    PayPal Friends and Family deposits count by the amount sent, in EUR. Deposits sent in GBP or USD are converted to EUR at the exchange rate of the moment the deposit completes.
  6. 3.2
    SEPA bank deposits count by the amount that arrived, in EUR, before fees. The one-off verification payment does not count.

    The reward of a goal is paid only when the deposit that reaches it completes: a PayPal deposit after any hold on it ends, and a SEPA bank deposit when it is credited to the Client's balance, including after a hold. A deposit that never completes, or a SEPA bank deposit that is refused or expires, does not count.
  9. 5
    Each goal is paid at most once per day, week or month. All-time milestones are paid once each and count deposits made from the moment the milestones started.
  10. 6
    Abusing cashback, including but not limited to splitting or cycling deposits to reach goals, can result in the loss of cashback and of the rewards it paid, in addition to any other measure in these terms.

12.6Levels terms

  1. 1
    Levels are a reward scheme in which the Client collects XP, reaches a level from 1 to 50 and earns a badge that changes every 10 levels. Only activity from the moment levels started counts; earlier activity does not.
  2. 2
    XP is given for the fees the Client pays on completed deposits, swaps and withdrawals, and on transfers the Client sends that have a fee. By default the Client gets 10 XP for every 1.00 EUR in fees. Fees in other currencies are converted to EUR at YourCryptoPal's price when they are counted, and the fee of a swap is its spread. XP is also given once for each of the one-time actions listed on the Your level page.
  3. 2.1
    No XP is given for sign-ins, merchant payouts, cashback, referral commissions, withdrawals from the Rewards balance, staff credits or debits, or the one-off verification payment of a SEPA bank deposit. A deposit counts only once it has completed, after any hold on it.
  4. 2.2
    If a counted transaction is later cancelled or refunded, its XP is taken back. YourCryptoPal may also add or remove XP to correct it. A Client's level can therefore go down.
  5. 3
    A level's reward, if it has one, is paid once to the Client's Rewards balance the first time the Client reaches that level, and follows the same withdrawal rules as the rest of that balance.
  6. 3.1
    A reward is paid only if level rewards are running and are not stopped for the Client when the level is reached. A level reached while that is not the case is not paid later. A reward already paid is not paid again when the Client reaches the same level a second time.
  7. 4
    The XP rates, the one-time actions, the levels and their rewards are set by YourCryptoPal and may be changed or stopped at any time, without notice.
  8. 5
    Abusing levels, including but not limited to using several accounts or cycling money to collect XP, can result in the loss of XP, of levels and of the rewards they paid, in addition to any other measure in these terms. Banned accounts do not earn XP.
