1.12. You can transfer between accounts denominated in different currencies. Please note that exchange rate fees may apply to transfers between different currencies.

1.13. The exchange rates applied to transactions are determined by third-party providers as the prevailing market rates at the time of the transaction and may vary from time to time. These rates are based on the local currency or the currency of your account with us.

1.18.1. Cross-chain transactions (sending cryptocurrency to an incorrect blockchain);

1.18.2. Wrong network transactions (using an incompatible network for transactions);

1.18.3. Smart contracts selection (mistakes in choosing or using smart contracts); or

1.18.4. Underpayments (initiating a cryptocurrency deposit but transferring less than the required amount).

These risks are linked to the nature of blockchain technology and the third-party services handling these transactions. Since we provide cryptocurrency transaction services via third parties, we cannot control or help recover funds lost in these situations. In the event of a cross-chain deposit, we reserve the right to charge a recovery fee should we choose to attempt to recover the funds. It is your responsibility to carefully check all transaction details before making a cryptocurrency transfer.

1.19. Cryptocurrency withdrawals may come with fees that can change due to network conditions at the time.

1.20. Delays in reflecting deposits or withdrawals in your account may occur due to technical issues or other unforeseen circumstances for which we are not liable.

For cryptocurrency withdrawals, the time it takes for the funds to reflect in your wallet will depend on the processing times of the relevant blockchain.

When you post ads, it is recommended that you stay active and available to react to orders that are placed in response to your ads; otherwise, any dispute related to the exchange might be resolved against you. We strongly advise you to pause your ads (making them temporarily invisible) when circumstances might not allow you to respond to orders in time.

Therefore, if any dispute or potential dispute is caused by any exchange or in connection to it, we shall not be liable to you, the other user, or any other person.

4.3.2. We will take reasonable steps to facilitate the execution of all exchanges supported by Deriv P2P.

You acknowledge that we are in no way liable for your failed exchanges.

4.3.3. We advise you to make sure that any payment you receive or make for any Deriv P2P exchange matches the payment details provided by the counterparty, including being made from or to an account in the counterparty’s own name. We shall not be liable for any risks or consequences caused by discrepancies between payment details entered in the ad or order and the payment details being used by either or both parties in the exchange.

4.3.4. The fixed rate that the sellers enter in their ads or orders will determine any and all amounts that the buyers need to pay. After initiating an exchange, the price is locked and cannot be negotiated and in any way changed, neither can any fees be added. You should not ask for or pay any amount beyond what is specified on the exchange screen.

4.3.5. Any information, including contact and payment details, that you provide to the counterparty at any stage of the exchange through the ad, the order, or the embedded chat must, at all times, be correct and up-to-date.

If we have reason to believe that you have intentionally provided false information to the counterparty, we reserve the right to take action against you, such as restricting, suspending, or terminating your use of all our services.

4.3.6. We shall block the ordered Deriv credits for a maximum of thirty (30) days if the buyer confirms payment, but the seller does not confirm receiving payment, and the exchange expires.

We recommend that you save any important information or files locally before the six (6)-month period expires.

4.3.9. Seller’s responsibilities

4.3.9.1. Whether you are selling Deriv credits by posting ads or placing orders, you have the following responsibilities:

4.3.9.1.1. You understand that once the exchange is initiated, neither the fixed price nor the payment details can be changed for that exchange, and it is your responsibility to check that the entered price is what you intend it to be.

4.3.9.1.2. You are required to provide accurate and up-to-date information to the buyer at all times, including but not limited to payment details, contact information, and any additional proof of identity that the buyer requests, be it in the ad that you post, the order that you place, or the chat which you have with the buyer on or off our platform. Providing inaccurate or outdated information is considered a violation of this agreement. Disputes will be resolved against you if you include inaccurate or out-of-date payment details. If we have reason to believe that you have intentionally provided the buyer with incorrect payment details, we will restrict, suspend, or terminate your use of all our services.

4.3.9.1.3. If the buyer asks for information or evidence to confirm your identity or payment details, it is your obligation to provide the buyer with the requested proof. Failure to meet this request will give the buyer the right to refuse to make payment.

4.3.9.1.4. You are not allowed to change the payment details that you provide in your ad or your order at any point after the exchange is initiated, either on or off the Deriv P2P platform, not even with the buyer’s consent. When we investigate disputes, we take into account solely the original payment details that are submitted by the seller in the ad or the order.

4.3.9.1.5. It is your responsibility to check that you have received your payment in full and that the payment has been made according to the details you have provided to the buyer. Please be aware that as soon as you confirm receiving payment, your funds will be automatically and irreversibly released to the buyer.

4.3.9.1.6. Once you ascertain that you have received full payment according to your instructions, you are required to confirm this fact on Deriv P2P so that the exchanged funds can be released to the buyer’s Deriv account. If you fail to make this confirmation and it is proved that the buyer has made full, accurate payment to you, any dispute related to this exchange will be resolved against you. If we have reason to believe that you are intentionally and frequently avoiding a timely confirmation of receiving payment, we might take action against you, such as temporarily or permanently restricting your access to all of our services.

4.3.9.1.7. Any deposits made via reversible methods — including but not limited to credit and debit cards (Maestro and Diners Club cards included), ZingPay, Neteller, Skrill, Ozow, and UPI — will not be reflected in your Deriv P2P Cashier until after 180 days from the date of the deposit.

4.3.10.1.1.

If you use payment details different from those that the seller has originally provided in the seller’s ad or order, including details such as the account number, account holder name, or the transferred amount, whether it is an underpayment error or an overpayment error, the sole responsibility lies with you, and we shall not be liable for any damages or loss incurred.

4.3.10.1.2. Although, as a buyer, you can cancel an exchange, you have an obligation to use the cancelling option sparingly and responsibly. If we have reason to believe that you have cancelled exchanges frequently with dishonest intentions, we will terminate your account with us.

4.3.10.1.3. You must never confirm payment if your payment is incomplete, as this is considered a misdeed. If we have reason to believe that you have made a false confirmation of payment, any disputes related to the exchange will be resolved against you. If there are grounds to assume that you frequently confirm payment without making a full, accurate payment, we might terminate your account. (If you ever confirm payment by mistake, please notify our support team and the seller immediately).

4.3.10.1.4. Once you make a full, accurate payment, you are required to confirm that you have paid before the order expires. Otherwise, any dispute related to this exchange might be resolved against you.

4.3.10.1.5. After confirming payment by pressing the relevant button, You are also required to upload the proof of payment in the embedded Deriv P2P chat.

4.3.10.1.6. If the seller asks for information or evidence to confirm your identity or payment details, it is your obligation to provide the seller with the requested proof. Failure to meet this request will give the seller the right to refuse to confirm receiving payment.

4.3.11. Floating exchange rate

4.3.11.1. The floating rate feature is only applicable to countries that support a live market feed and stable currency exchange rate.

4.3.11.2. The floating rate feature is applied to two (2) types of currencies: pegged and non-pegged.

4.3.11.5. If the market rate varies beyond 0.5% before a Deriv P2P order is confirmed, the order will be rejected, and the client must create a new order.

4.3.11.6. If the market feed has delays longer than twenty-four (24) hours, we will manually set the applicable exchange rate.

4.3.11.7. A thirty (30)-day grace period is given for the fulfillment of the Deriv P2P ads that were created prior to the introduction of the floating rate.
