Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 8 May 2026 · Effective for the pre-launch website at paybees.money

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the PayBees website at paybees.money ("Website") during the pre-launch period. The Website is operated by DevServe HK Limited, a company incorporated in Hong Kong with its registered office at Unit 1411, 14/F, COSCO Tower, 183 Queen's Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong (in these Terms, "DevServe", "we", "us", "our"). By using the Website or submitting your email for early access, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.

1. Scope & relationship to future Production Terms

The Website is currently in pre-launch. These Terms cover only your use of the Website itself — not the future PayBees payment-orchestration service. A separate set of production terms — covering account opening, customer onboarding, AML, KYC / KYB, payment instructions, fees, settlement, dispute resolution, and applicable payment-services licensing — will be presented to and accepted by each customer before any production transaction is processed. Those production terms will govern that relationship and will supersede these Terms in respect of paid services.

2. Eligibility

You may use the Website only if:

• you are at least 18 years old;
• you are not a person with whom we are prohibited from dealing under applicable sanctions, export-control, or anti-terrorism laws (including those administered by the United Nations, the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control, the European Union, the United Kingdom, or the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region);
• your access to the Website is not prohibited by the laws of the place from which you access it.

3. Early-access list & communications

If you submit your email address through the early-access form, you authorise us to send you transactional and informational emails about: the timing of public launch; invitations to closed beta or testing programmes; product updates relevant to early-access participants; and changes to these Terms or our Privacy Policy. You may opt out at any time by replying "unsubscribe" to any email or by writing to hello@paybees.money; opting out will not affect emails strictly required for security or legal-notice purposes.

Submitting your email does not create an account, a customer relationship, or any commitment to provide services. Provision of the future PayBees service is conditional on completion of onboarding under the production terms then in force.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• use the Website in any way that breaches any applicable law or regulation, or that infringes the rights of any third party;
• access, tamper with, or use non-public areas of the Website, our systems, or the technical delivery systems of our subprocessors;
• probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of any system or network, except as permitted under the responsible-disclosure policy at paybees.money/security.html;
• upload or transmit malicious code, viruses, or any other harmful technology;
• scrape, harvest, or otherwise collect data from the Website at a volume or rate that imposes an unreasonable load on it;
• impersonate any person, misrepresent any affiliation, or use the Website to defraud any person;
• use the Website to test, signal, or facilitate any payment scheme that is illegal or that breaches any sanctions regime.

5. Intellectual property

The Website and all content on it (including text, graphics, logos, code, the PayBees name, the bee mark, and the orchestration diagram), other than user-supplied content, are owned by DevServe or licensed to us, and are protected by copyright, trade-mark, and other intellectual-property laws. You may view and use the Website for the purpose of evaluating PayBees. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, publicly display, or create derivative works of any material on the Website except (a) for personal, non-commercial reference, or (b) with our prior written permission.

6. Disclaimer of warranties

The Website is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, DevServe disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, and uninterrupted or error-free operation. Information on the Website is illustrative; figures shown by the orchestration diagram are simulated for demonstration only and do not represent live transactions.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall DevServe, its directors, officers, employees, agents, or licensors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the Website, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Where liability cannot be excluded under applicable law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with your use of the Website during the pre-launch period is limited to one hundred Hong Kong dollars (HKD 100). Nothing in these Terms excludes liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or any liability that cannot be lawfully excluded.

8. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless DevServe and its directors, officers, employees, and agents from and against any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Website, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

9. Privacy

Our handling of your personal data is described in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

10. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will revise the "Last updated" date and, for material changes, give early-access subscribers reasonable advance notice by email. Continued use of the Website after the effective date of a change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. The current version is always available at paybees.money/terms.html.

11. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Website at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, including if we believe you have breached these Terms. Sections 5 (Intellectual property), 6 (Disclaimer), 7 (Limitation of liability), 8 (Indemnity), 12 (Governing law), and 13 (General) survive termination.

12. Governing law & jurisdiction

These Terms and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them are governed by the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. The courts of Hong Kong have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Website, save that DevServe may bring proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual-property rights or to enforce a judgment.

13. General

• Entire agreement. These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy and the Security Policy) constitute the entire agreement between you and DevServe in relation to the Website and supersede any prior understandings.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right under these Terms is not a waiver of that right.
• Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms. We may assign them to an affiliate or a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
• Third-party rights. A person who is not a party to these Terms has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Ordinance (Cap. 623) to enforce any provision of these Terms.
• Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
• Language. The English version of these Terms is the controlling version. Any translation is provided for convenience only.
