3. 6DOT50 Membership Programme

3.1 We facilitate the exchange of value between Members and other Members and between Members and business partners of 6DOT50 using voucher products sold by us (6DOT50 Membership Programme). 6DOT50 vouchers may be linked to known and trusted values such as the United States dollar, for example, and in this case vouchers may be referred to as Digital Dollars (D$). Currently, we only offer Digital Rand vouchers (Rand Vouchers) and the value of each Rand Voucher is backed 100% by the equivalent fiat currency Rands held on deposit in our bank account to ensure that you receive the benefits available to you in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and as more fully explained in the Benefit Rules. The value of 1 Rand Voucher is therefore equal to 1 South African Rand. Unlike physical products that are subject to wear and tear, subject to loss and are costly to store and move, Rand Vouchers are borderless and are not prone to wear and tear or loss thus retaining their representative value indefinitely. 6DOT50 vouchers do not expire. In addition, 6DOT50 vouchers may be redeemed to acquire other products and services from 6DOT50 business partners and/or businesses which accept 6DOT50 vouchers in exchange for products and/or services. A 6DOT50 voucher is therefore a product with a common measure of value used in the exchange of products and services.
3.2 To be a Member of 6DOT50, you must be:
a) entitled to use our products and services in your country of residence, have a mobile phone number that is registered in South Africa that will be used as your membership number and be entitled to enter into a binding agreement as set out in these Terms and Conditions. By registering as a Member, you warrant that you are 18 (eighteen) years of age or older and have full legal capacity to agree to these Terms and Conditions. If you are under the age of 18 (eighteen) or if you are not legally permitted to enter into a binding agreement, then you may register as a Member only if you have permission from your parent or legal guardian and such parent or legal guardian agrees to be bound to these Terms and Conditions and to be responsible for all of your obligations under these Terms and Conditions; or
b) an approved business that registers for one of the approved Business Benefits offered by the 6DOT50 membership programme.
3.3 You agree that you are solely responsible to ensure that you comply with any and all local laws and requirements and/or restrictions that may be applicable to you in your country of residence. If your country of residence imposes certain restrictions on your ability to participate in the 6DOT50 Membership Programme, you accept that 6DOT50 will be entitled to implement such restrictions.
3.4 6DOT50 may suspend and/or terminate your membership and benefits at any time if it reasonably suspects that you have or may have acted dishonestly, fraudulently or illegally in your engagement with the 6DOT50 Membership Programme or for any other reason whatsoever, including the use of abusive language against 6DOT50 staff or the over-burdening of the 6DOT50 support channels. The decision to suspend and/or terminate an account rests in 6DOT50’s sole and absolute discretion.
3.5 You are encouraged to report any fraudulent activity or misuse of benefits by contacting 6DOT50 on info@6DOT50.com
‍3.6 If your membership ends or your membership is terminated for any reason:a) Your rights to benefits will immediately cease; andb) We will refund you for the value of Rand Vouchers held in your 6DOT50 account at the time that your membership ends or terminates (as the case may be), less any fees that may be applicable at that time.
3.7 You may cancel your membership at any time by giving at least 30 (thirty) calendar days’ written notice to 6DOT50, in order for us to process any refund that may be due to you.

Fees may be applicable when redeeming vouchers for alternative voucher options or when Members choose a payment method that may include fees. Fees may also apply to benefits available to business Members.
