Zilch General Terms and Conditions

1. WHO ARE WE?

Zilch Technology Limited (‘Zilch’) is UK company (Company Number 11488502), and is based at 111 Buckingham Palace Road, London SW1W 0SR. Zilch provides customers the freedom to shop anywhere (where Visa is accepted) in the world (online or in-store) when they pay using the Zilch card and earn Zilch Rewards on debit or spread interest-free repayments over six weeks and up to three months on credit.

2. WHAT ARE THESE TERMS?

These general terms and conditions (‘Terms’) apply to your general usage of Zilch and sit alongside, and are governed by, your Zilch Regulated Credit Agreement and Zilch Account Agreement. They cover how Zilch Plans work, how you can earn Zilch Rewards, as well as any other non-credit related aspects of your accounts with us. This includes a description of how your Zilch Physical Card works, including its features, usage, limits, and restrictions. By signing up to a Zilch Plan, you agree to be bound by these Terms. Capitalised terms have the meaning assigned to them in these Terms or the Zilch Account Agreement.

3. WHO CAN ACCESS THESE SERVICES?

These Zilch Plans are available to anyone who is an existing Zilch customer over the age of 18 years old, a UK resident (excluding the Channel Islands and Isle of Man), and has an active and unrestricted Zilch credit account.

As we introduce plans, all customers will begin on the Standard Plan and will gain access to Premium Plans in stages. Access to specific features and benefits, including those offered through Zilch Plus, will be provided progressively. Some customers be offered these enhancements earlier, while others will gain full access as the phased introduction continues.

4. WHAT ARE ZILCH REWARDS?

Zilch Rewards can be earned by making debit and credit transactions with your Zilch card, or by referring a friend to Zilch (‘Rewards’). You can use Zilch Rewards for future purchases by using your Zilch card aligned to your debit or your Zilch credit account.

Earning Zilch Rewards: The table below outlines how Zilch Rewards can be earned, and how you can use them depending upon your Zilch Plan and status. Please note:

Expiry: Rewards will expire 12 months from the date they are earned, unless expressly stated otherwise.

No Cash Value: Rewards cannot be redeemed for cash, nor can they be transferred to any bank account, payment card, or similar financial instrument.

Non-Transferable: Rewards are personal to the account holder and may not be assigned, sold, or otherwise transferred. Rewards may not be combined with rewards earned by or allocated to any other person.

Application to Credit: Rewards may be applied toward amounts owed under your Zilch credit account(s).

If we have reasonably suspended your use of the Zilch Credit Account or if we have reasonable grounds to believe that you have engaged, or may engage in, any fraud or material abuse related to Rewards, then without limiting any of our other rights, we reserve the right to, in our sole discretion and without notice to you:

suspend your use of your Rewards for such period as we consider appropriate in the circumstances; and

take any other such actions which we reasonably consider appropriate in the circumstances, and this may include immediately ceasing your ability to earn further Rewards and/or forfeit your existing Rewards.

5. WHAT are ZILCH Plans?

Every Zilch Account is automatically given a Standard Plan and has the option to upgrade to a paid Plus Plan which offers additional benefits such as increased in Rewards. The Plus Plan does not provide access to credit facilities, deferred payment options, or changes to your credit limit.

If you choose to sign up to a Plus Plan, the monthly membership fee will be taken out of your linked direct debit card starting from the date of your enrolment, unless otherwise stated.
