8.2. In order to make such a binding offer, the customer must (1) provide all required data in the FIOR Digital system validly and correctly and (2) click the “Confirm” button (“Savings Plan Offer”). The first execution of the savings plan and the frequency of repetition are determined by the customer. At the time specified by the customer (e.g. on the 5th day of each month), FIOR Digital will purchase BTC for the entire transaction amount at the current BTC market price from FIOR Digital through the savings plan, provided that payment has been received from the customer's bank account.

The customer will be notified of the payment amount and the debit date by email after the payment has been successfully completed.

The customer's bank is also entitled to reject direct debits, especially if the customer's account does not have the required funds.
8.8. The customer has the right to initiate a chargeback to his account (“chargeback”) within 56 calendar days (8 weeks) from the debit date without giving reasons.

Note: The claim due according to the final price accepted and confirmed as part of the savings plan remains valid even in the event of a return debit.
8.9. The customer is obliged to ensure that his bank account has sufficient funds on the due date. If collection via SEPA direct debit mandate is not possible (e.g. because the banking institution rejects or rejects the direct debit) and the customer is at fault, the customer will bear all resulting costs (e.g. bank fees) to the extent that they are necessary to cover the reasonable administrative costs. The customer also authorizes FIOR Digital to carry out a direct debit again at a later date. The customer will be notified of the payment amount and the debit date by email after the payment has been successfully completed.
8.10. Standing order: By selecting the standing order as a payment method, the customer instructs his bank to transfer the specified amount to FIOR Digital's bank account when it is due.

8.12. The customer can revoke the savings plan, the SEPA direct debit mandate and the standing order at any time. A revocation will become effective no later than two working days after you have submitted your revocation. Please note that your SEPA direct debit mandate will continue to be executed even after revocation or interruption, provided that the revocation or interruption occurs between the time of debit from your bank account and the recurring purchase time. Please also note that the standing order with the bank must be terminated separately. If the standing order is not ended, the fiat amount will continue to be transferred to your customer account and automatically exchanged for BTC at the current BTC-fiat exchange rate.
8.13. The customer accepts the BTC-Fiat exchange rate at the time of transaction. The current BTC-Fiat exchange rate can be viewed by the customer at any time on the FIOR Digital systems.

9.2. The transaction ID generated by the BTC network serves as irrefutable proof of the transfer of BTC to the wallet address added by the customer. This transaction ID will also be sent to the customer's most recently disclosed email address as part of a delivery confirmation. The transaction can be viewed publicly at the following internet address: https://mempool.space.
9.3. The transfer is complete and cannot be reversed once the transfer appears on the BTC network. Once the transfer has been confirmed, the FIOR Digital System no longer has any influence on the transfer. The transfer can only be completed through confirmation from the BTC network.

FIOR Digital offers the customer the opportunity to trigger a BTC purchase from FIOR Digital at a maximum price (“Custom Price Order”) predetermined by the customer under the following conditions:
10.1. In order to trigger a custom price order on the FIOR Digital systems, the customer specifies, on the one hand, an individual purchase price that is below the current price for BTC and, on the other hand, a certain amount of BTC that should be purchased at the set price.
10.2. The customer can only trigger a custom price order if he has vouchers in the corresponding amount. In the event that the customer triggers a custom price order, the corresponding voucher amount will be withheld by FIOR Digital until the custom price order is (i) executed (ii) canceled or (iii) expired. The customer cannot otherwise dispose of the specified amount during this period.
10.3. The custom price order is executed by purchasing BTC either (i) at the selected price or (ii) below the selected price. To clarify, it is stated that the customer purchases the BTC directly from FIOR Digital and not through any exchange. At the time the custom price order is executed, the corresponding retained voucher amount will be debited from the customer account and in return BTC will be purchased in the same value (less fees). After successful completion of the custom price order, the customer will receive a notification from FIOR Digital in the customer account and by email.
10.4. When placing a custom price order, the customer must specify a period after which the order expires if it has not been executed (“expiry period”). A day always ends at 00:00 UTC 24 (twenty-four) hours after the customer places the order. For example, if you set an expiration period of 7 (seven) days on Monday at 2:30 p.m. UTC, the limit price order will expire on the following Monday at 00:00 a.m. UTC.
10.5. The customer has the option to cancel the custom price order he has placed at any time before it is executed on the FIOR Digital applications. FIOR Digital does not charge any fees for canceled custom price orders.
10.6. FIOR Digital reserves the right to cancel outstanding custom price orders if there is suspicion that there is a reason for termination in accordance with point 5.2 of the General Terms and Conditions. To the extent permitted by law, in such a case the customer will receive a notification in his customer account and by email.
10.7. The triggering of a custom price order does not constitute a price guarantee and the order may not be executed at the customer's desired price due to the volatile market
11.1. Transaction Fees: A fee is charged by FIOR Digital for buying and selling BTC. For more information about fees, see the following article about fees.
11.2. Transfer Fees: A fee will be charged by FIOR Digital to process the customer-instructed transfer.
11.3. External fees: In addition, external network, transmission or miner fees may apply, which are inherent to the blockchain and must be borne by the customer (“mining fees”). FIOR Digital cannot influence the amount or amount of external fees. The fee is influenced by factors that FIOR Digital cannot influence (such as the transaction volume on the Bitcoin network). The customer will be informed of the applicable fee before the purchase is confirmed. Any costs from credit institutions (e.g. fees for transfers or booking lines) must be borne by the customer.
11.4. FIOR Digital will not transact BTC if Bitcoin mining fees are more than 10% of the transferred values. In this case, FIOR Digital waits until the customer makes additional transactions or the transaction costs have fallen below 10%.
12.1. In accordance with the following provisions, FIOR Digital will manage the customer assets in BTC (“trust assets”) that are beneficially owned by the customer in trust in its own name but for the account of the customer (“trust service”).
12.2. The customer appoints FIOR Digital as trustee of the trust property. The customer expressly authorizes FIOR Digital to appoint additional authorized representatives, agents, representatives or trustees to fulfill the obligations stated in this point 12. FIOR Digital never holds the private keys for the BTC purchased by customers. The BTC is stored in central wallets by a third crypto custodian. FIOR Digital uses the partner Bitstamp Europe S.A., with its registered office at 40, avenue Monterey L-2163 Luxembourg, respectively BitGo Trust Company Inc., with its registered office at 6216 Pinnacle Place, Suite#l01, Sioux Falls, South Dakota 57108, United States, as the crypto custodian of the private and public keys of the BTC held in trust, which stores the BTC in central wallets for FIOR Digital (“Custodian”).
12.3. As trustor, the customer is the beneficial owner of his trust assets at all times and FIOR Digital is the civil law owner of the trust assets in accordance with Austrian civil law in its function as trustee. FIOR Digital and the Customer are bound by the following trust agreement (“Trust Agreement”):
12.3.1. The trust services – and therefore the trust agreement – are subject to the successful completion of the customer registration process and the other conditions of these Terms and Conditions. In addition, the trust services are subject to and are subject to additional requirements communicated to the customer upon or after the deposit of fiat funds, such as the submission of evidence of the origin of funds in accordance with anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing regulations limited.
12.3.2. Trust assets consist of all BTC credited to your customer account as a direct result of a purchase of BTC processed through FIOR Digital systems.
For the avoidance of doubt, all BTC that, for whatever reason, should be credited to the customer account (e.g. if sufficient proof of coverage is not provided) do not constitute trust assets and are therefore not subject to the trust agreement.
12.3.3. The trust relationship is one-sided and FIOR Digital, in its function as trustee, holds the trust assets with the custodian at all times in the interests and for the account of the customer. FIOR Digital offers trust services to all of its customers (i.e. FIOR Digital acts as trust agent for several customers at the same time) and may also hold or trade its own BTC. The customer hereby releases FIOR Digital from any restrictions on self-contracting and dual representation (pursuant to Section 1009 of the Austrian General Civil Code or otherwise) in connection with its function as FIOR Digital and the other services it offers on the FIOR Digital systems.
12.3.4. Subject to the fulfillment of the above requirements, the trust agreement begins on the day on which a (part of a) BTC is allocated to the customer account and is closed for an indefinite period. The trust agreement ends automatically as soon as all trust assets have been withdrawn from the customer account.
12.3.5. The amount of trust assets that FIOR Digital manages for the customer is displayed via the FIOR Digital systems. FIOR Digital undertakes to protect the trust assets to the extent that is technically feasible in the FIOR Digital systems. However, FIOR Digital is not obliged to hold customer assets in a particular form or system.
12.3.6. The Customer remains in control of all Customer Assets displayed in his Customer Account and, subject to the conditions and limitations set out in these Terms and Conditions, may dispose of the trust assets at any time, for example by transferring it to a wallet address outside the FIOR Digital systems. FIOR Digital will then issue a corresponding order to the custodian.
12.3.7. The purpose of the trust agreement is to create a legal framework for the technical services offered by FIOR Digital in relation to the client's assets. FIOR Digital, in its capacity as a trustee, does not act as an asset manager, investment advisor, portfolio manager or in a similar capacity and, subject to mandatory legal provisions, court orders or judgments or similar instructions from authorities which are binding on FIOR Digital, does not actively participate in transactions and makes no observations or inquiries regarding the trust assets.
12.3.8. As the beneficial owner of the Customer's assets, the Customer bears the entire risk of loss (in actual, legal and/or economic terms) of these Customer's assets, in particular any of the risks specified in point 16 of these Terms and Conditions. Any liability of FIOR Digital arising from or in connection with FIOR Digital trust services is limited in accordance with point 15 of these Terms and Conditions.
12.4. As long as a person is a customer of FIOR Digital, the use of the trust services is free of charge. However, if a person is no longer a customer and refuses to withdraw their assets within 14 days of termination of the contractual relationship, FIOR Digital is entitled to charge fees of 0.1% of the value of the trust assets in custody, but a maximum of EUR 30 .00 per month for the use of the trust services. These fees apply in addition to and independently of any other fees expressly agreed to in other points of these Terms and Conditions.
13.1. FIOR Digital offers the purchase of a FIOR Digital voucher against redemption of vouchers (hereinafter “voucher”).
13.2. The customer (“sender”) can purchase a voucher from FIOR Digital and instructs FIOR Digital that the voucher amount (“voucher amount”) will be deducted from his voucher balance as soon as the voucher is redeemed by another customer (“recipient”). After the sender has confirmed the voucher purchase by clicking on the corresponding button, he instructs FIOR Digital to block the voucher amount on his voucher balance. This blocking will be lifted if the voucher has not been redeemed within 90 days of the issue date or if the sender cancels the voucher via FIOR Digital before the recipient redeems the voucher. When the recipient redeems the voucher, the voucher amount is deducted from the sender's voucher balance.
13.3. The sender must have sufficient voucher credit in his customer account at the time the voucher is created or purchased.
13.4. The voucher can only be redeemed at FIOR Digital.
13.5. As soon as the recipient redeems the voucher at FIOR Digital, FIOR Digital will purchase BTC for the entire voucher amount at FIOR Digital's current market price, less the FIOR Digital fees (see point 11).
13.6. Both sender and recipient must be FIOR Digital customers with active accounts without active restrictions. If the recipient is not a FIOR Digital customer, they must open a fully verified and active account with FIOR Digital before redeeming the voucher.
13.7. The maximum voucher amount and the number of vouchers that a sender may purchase or a recipient may receive may be subject to restrictions due to legal or regulatory requirements or other objective reasons, which FIOR Digital determines and may change at any time. Changes will be announced to customers with a reasonable lead time and will not affect vouchers that have already been purchased.
13.8. A voucher is not reloadable and is valid for 90 days from the date of issue. After the voucher's validity period has expired, the sender of the voucher will be credited back to his customer account if the voucher has not been redeemed.
14.1. According to Section 11 FAGG, the customer has the right to withdraw from a concluded contract within 14 days of the respective contract being concluded without giving reasons.

In order to exercise his right of withdrawal, the customer must inform FIOR Digital by means of a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or email) that he is withdrawing from the contract. The consumer customer can use the attached sample cancellation form (see appendix: cancellation form), but is not obliged to do so. In order to meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient that the customer sends notification of the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the deadline expires.
14.2. If the customer withdraws from his contract, FIOR Digital must refund all payments received to the customer immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which FIOR Digital was informed of the withdrawal or revocation. For the repayment, FIOR Digital uses the same payment method and bank account of the customer for the repayment that the customer used in the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with the customer. In no case will the customer be charged any fees for this repayment.
14.3. The customer has no right to withdraw from BTC purchased via distance selling, as their price depends on fluctuations on the financial market, over which FIOR Digital has no influence and which can occur within the withdrawal period (§ 18 Paragraph 1 Z 2 FAGG).
15.1. In principle, FIOR Digital is only liable to customers for damages that were caused intentionally or through gross negligence by FIOR Digital or one of its vicarious agents. In cases where damage was caused by slight negligence, FIOR Digital is only liable for:
