Article 3 - Scope of Services Provided by LYZI

3.1 - Services provided by LYZI

3.1.1 - Free Provision of LYZI

La Société met gratuitement à disposition des Clients la Solution LYZI donnant accès aux Services.

LYZI comprend également les Contenus, les logiciels, les programmes, les outils (de programmation, de navigation, etc.), les systèmes d’exploitation et bases de données, la documentation et tous autres éléments et services qui la composent, les mises à jour et les nouvelles versions apportées à LYZI par la Société.

3.1.2 - Cryptocurrency Exchange Services Provided by a Partner Digital Asset Service Provider

LYZI puts a Customer in contact with a partner VASP whose role is to provide a digital asset exchange service corresponding to the amount of the Transaction concluded between the User and the Merchant.

Please note that the Company is a third party to the relationship between the Customer and the VASP partner.

Furthermore, the Company does not carry out any banking or financial canvassing activities in connection with the provision of LYZI to the Customer.

 In fact, the use of the Services (including the exchange service) does not result from any unsolicited contact by the Company, by any means whatsoever, with an individual customer or a specific legal entity, with a view to obtaining an agreement on their part to provide a service on digital assets.

3.1.3 - Loyalty Program

LYZI enables customers to benefit from a "Loyalty 3.0" program (cashback on all purchases, exclusive offers from merchants, dematerialization of loyalty cards, redemption or donation of points, etc.) thanks to the Gardenlab solution (https://gardenlab.io/ ).

3.2 - Services offered to Merchants

3.2.1 - Transactions initiated in Digital Assets

LYZI enables Merchants to carry out Transactions whose payment is initiated in digital Assets by Customers.

The Company has designed various tools with different flows enabling merchants to accept Transactions and read the QR Code displayed on the Customer's cell phone and presented to the Merchant at checkout.

Merchant acceptance is possible thanks to the functionalities of the LYZI connector, a module dedicated to the acceptance of alternative payments chosen by the Merchant (cashier connector used via the LYZI API, LYZI Pro Scan application, and e-commerce plugins within the framework of the use of a LYZI module or thanks to the use of the cashier interface).

Acceptance of the Transaction generates a QR Code recognized at the Merchant's cash desk (via the use of a scan), enabling the Customer to pay the amount of the Transaction. It is specified that payment of the Transaction amount to the Merchant is made by the partner PSP on indication from the Customer (once the exchange has been completed) in fiat currency.

It is specified that the VASP partner does not provide the Merchant with any service on digital assets, and does not make any transmission to the Merchant's payment account.

As part of the Transaction, the partner PSP transfers the Transaction amount in local currency upon indication by the Customer. The Company makes no direct transmission to the Merchant's payment account.

The QR Code thus generated is recognized at the Merchant's cash desk. It contains information relating to the Transaction concluded between the Customer and the Merchant, and in particular the amount of the Transaction, which is communicated to the VASP partner.

The origination of the QR Code also triggers a consistency test of the Transaction by LYZI and the registration of the Transaction in the Exchange with the VASP partner.

Validation of the Transaction also enables it to be paid in Euro, or any other contractually predefined currency, to the Merchant via the partner PSP and upon indication by the Customer.

3.2.2 - Tools for setting up loyalty programs

The Company provides Merchants with various cross-channel marketing modules (e-mail, SMS, Push In App, WhatsApp and Messenger) as well as back-office management and statistics services.

Merchants can also create their own token or NFT.

ARTICLE 4 - Availability of LYZI and the Services

Article 6 - Operation of LYZI and Services

6.1 - FOR THE CUSTOMER

6.1.1 - Technical requirements

‍The operation of LYZI can be consulted on the LYZI website at the following address: https://lyzi.io and the functional diagram of LYZI is explained in the LYZI "FAQ" available at the following address: https://lyzi.io/support/
To access LYZI, the Customer must have :

a compatible cell phone or terminal; and
- access to the Internet.

Compatible cell phones and terminals are as follows:
an Apple® IPhone® cell phone running the IOS operating system under IOS 10 or any later version that may be developed; and
- a cell phone running the Android® 4.4 operating system or any later version that may be developed.

Equipment and material resources enabling access to LYZI are the sole responsibility of Users.

6.1.2- Carrying out a Transaction via LYZI

The User carries out a Transaction by scanning the merchant's QR code:
When the user goes to the Merchant with the Acceptance Module, and after having selected his item or service, it is the Merchant's responsibility to enter the amount of the Transaction denominated in Euros, as the selling price of the good or service is displayed by the Merchant thanks to the Lyzi Pro Application.

The Application generates a QR Code and/or barcode containing the voucher with all the information relating to the Transaction concluded between the User and the Merchant, and in particular the amount of the Transaction, which will be communicated to the VASP.

The QR Code and/or barcode displayed on the retailer's mobile phone/tablet is presented to the user so that he can scan it with his cell phone. The user selects the CEX. Payment is then initiated with the VASPProcessing the voucher triggers the consistency test for the Transaction, carried out by the Service Provider.

In the event of a data entry error, the Transaction will not take place and the operation will be instantly rejected as indicated in paragraph 3. below "Consistency check".

The amount entered may correspond to the purchase of several products or services. The minimum transaction amount is 0.10 Euro.

The user may enter an amount less than the total value of the purchase as the price is displayed by the Merchant and will have to complete his purchase in currency or any other payment method accepted by the Merchant in order to pay the full price of the Transaction.
b)Completion of a Transaction via the merchant's scan of the User's QR code:
When the User goes to the Merchant with the Acceptance Module, and after selecting his/her item or service, it is the User's responsibility to enter the amount of the Transaction denominated in Euros, as the selling price of the good or service is displayed by the Merchant thanks to the User Application.

The User opens the User Application on his cell phone and enters the amount of the Transaction to be paid in Euros. The User Application allows the User to enter a Transaction amount based on the KYC validated by the VASP.

The User Application generates a QR Code and/or barcode containing the voucher with all the information relating to the Transaction concluded between the User and the Merchant, and in particular the amount of the Transaction, which is communicated to the VASP.
The voucher is also associated with the VASP's contact details.

The QR Code and/or barcode displayed on the user's cell phone is presented to the retailer's IT system, which scans it using the handheld scanner (if barcode) or retailer application (if QR code) connected to the IT system.

Voucher origination also initiates the exchange with the VASP. Processing the voucher triggers the consistency test for the Transaction, carried out by the Service Provider.

In the event of a data entry error, the Transaction will not take place and the operation will be instantly rejected as indicated in paragraph 3. below "Consistency check".

The amount entered may correspond to the purchase of several products or services. The minimum transaction amount is 0.10 Euro.

The user may enter an amount less than the total value of the purchase as the price is displayed by the Merchant and will have to complete his purchase in currency or any other payment method accepted by the Merchant in order to pay the full price of the Transaction.
Transaction via TPE/Order pad/Cashier
The Lyzi solution also offers the possibility of managing a crypto payment flow via digital media.

In the case of Eftpos terminals and Order Kiosks: the QRCode will be emitted on these two media and then scanned by the customer's telephone.

In the case of the checkout system: the QRCode/Bar Code is issued by the Lyzi user application and then scanned by the checkout host.
d) Transaction Consistency Check
In order to protect the User, the Service Provider automatically performs a consistency check of the Transaction's characteristics as soon as the QR Code is scanned.

The consistency test consists of sending the Transaction to the Service Provider's pre-validation database to check that its characteristics are consistent (price, presence of Digital Assets in the Wallet, absence of several transactions potentially leading to double use of Digital Assets).

The validation of a Transaction will only be possible if the User has a sufficient balance of Digital Assets at least equal to the amount of the Transaction, to which must be added the commission of the partner VASP and the Service Provider.

Once the consistency check has been completed, the transaction is sent and entered into the database, which is directly accessible via the merchant back office.

At the same time, the conditions of the exchange are validated with the VASP (amount of digital Assets, price communicated by the VASP, Merchant's contact details and Merchant's bank details). 
e) Transaction approval
Transaction approval is only possible if the value of the voucher has been executed by the CEX under its conditions.

In the event of an error in entering the transaction amount in Euros, the transaction will be rejected. 

The Transaction must be settled by the User by any other means of payment accepted by the Merchant.

As a reminder, neither the Sign nor the Service Provider can be held responsible in any way for the loss of Digital Assets for any reason whatsoever, in particular due to User error and/or VASP failure, especially in cases where the VASP transmits an incorrect exchange rate or reception address.
f) Payment of the Transaction to the Merchant
Once the Transaction has been validated after the consistency test, it is recorded in the database.

As this procedure can take from a few minutes to a few hours, the Transaction is confirmed by the Service Provider and sent to the VASP before the Transaction is recorded.

The VASP exchanges the Digital Assets once the Transaction has been registered (and the user's Digital Assets have been received by the VASP).

Once the Transaction has been completed by the VASP, the latter transfers the amount of the Transaction in crypto assets to the suspense account of the partner payment service provider, which converts and reverses it into local currency for the Merchant once a day (excluding interbank processing times).

In practice, the VASP does not pay the User the amount of the exchange. The User tells the VASP to pay the Brand directly for the amount of the exchange, which corresponds to the amount of the transaction.

The Merchant will therefore receive the amount of the VASP Transaction net of commission. 
g) Transaction refund
The Customer can be reimbursed within the statutory retraction period in crypto-currency. As crypto-assets are particularly volatile, the customer will be reimbursed for the equivalent amount spent in € by the merchant within 5 working days. 

The partner and customer will be provided with a dedicated procedure for this specific case. 
- Subscription types and durations
There are three different types of subscription.

The Merchant chooses a subscription and a periodicity (annual or monthly).

The price of each Subscription is available in the merchant interface accessible via the https://admin.lyzi.fr/ page. 20% VAT is applicable to the prices indicated.

In the event of a change in the price of the Subscription, the price in force at the time of renewal will be applied for the renewal period.

The Company undertakes to notify the Merchant of the new price at least fifteen (15) days prior to the renewal date generating the new price.

b. For the Merchant
Conformément à l’article L.221-28 1° du Code de la consommation, une utilisation des Services par le Marchand ne donne pas lieu au bénéfice du droit de rétractation pour le Marchand dans la mesure où les Services constituent une “fourniture de services pleinement exécutés avant la fin du délai de rétractation (…)”.
