Our API is intended to be used as an interface between: (a) our website comprising our relevant products and services, including developer services, mobile services and any other features, content, or applications offered or operated by Us from time to time whether accessed via the internet, mobile device or other electronic device (‘Platform’); and (b) the applications or services provided by you through your website or platform (‘Application’).

The main things that we care about are that our Platform and the rights of our end users are protected.
The API Terms of Service set out our and your respective rights and obligations relating to use of our APIs to interface between our Platform and your Application and use of the API Data.
Your use of any of our other products or services on our Platform will be on different terms and conditions. If, and only so far as, these API Terms of Service and the terms and conditions applicable to our other products or services are inconsistent, the terms and conditions applicable to our other products and services shall prevail (and these API Terms of Service shall not apply).
Unless these API Terms of Service specifically stipulate that you can do something in connection with the API, the API Data or the Platform, then you cannot.
You agree:
Only you are allowed to use the API. Should you require your end users to use the API please contact our support team to discuss our PaaS (Payment-as-a-Service).

For certain APIs, open-source software is listed in the documentation. To the limited extent the open-source software license expressly supersedes the Terms, the open-source license instead sets forth your agreement with My EU Pay Ltd. for the applicable open source software.

We will post notice of modifications to the Terms within the documentation of each applicable API to our website. Changes will not apply retroactively and will become effective no sooner than 30 days after they are posted. But changes addressing new functions for an API or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately.
