- Registration Process:
- When registering for the use of the Platform and the Services, you must provide your own full legal name, a valid e-mail address, a geographical address and any other information requested in order to complete the registration process to create a Merchant Account (“Merchant Account”).

If someone accesses the Platform and or the Services using a User Name and or Password that you have created or that Tucr issues to you in the event of a Password reset request to your designated email address, Tucr will rely on that User Name and Password and will assume that access has been made by you.

Please notify us immediately if you become aware that your or any associated account User Name and/or Password are being used without authorisation.
