crypt.pe — Terms of Service
Effective Date: 9 June 2026 Last Updated: 12 September 2026 Operator: 3-102-969985 S.R.L. (Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada, "S.R.L."), registered with the National Registry (Registro Nacional) of Costa Rica. Domicile: Escazú, San José, Costa Rica.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the crypt.pe website, applications, APIs, plugins, and software development kits (collectively, the "Service"). The Service is operated by the Costa Rican company identified above (the "Company", "we", "us", or "our"), a software publisher domiciled in Escazú, San José, Republic of Costa Rica.
By accessing or using the Service in any way — including creating an account, displaying a wallet address, calling our APIs, or installing one of our plugins — you ("you", "user") agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.
1. Eligibility and accounts
1.1 You must be at least 18 years of age and legally capable of entering into a binding contract in your jurisdiction.
1.2 To use authenticated parts of the Service you create an account by providing a valid email address, choosing a username, and setting a password. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it up to date.
1.3 You are solely responsible for safeguarding your account credentials, API keys, and webhook signing secrets. Anyone in possession of these may act on your behalf and you are responsible for all activity that occurs through your account.
2. Usernames
2.1 Your username forms part of your public profile URL (crypt.pe/yourname). Usernames are first-come, first-served and subject to availability.
2.2 We may reclaim, modify, or delete usernames that we reasonably believe are misleading, infringe third-party rights, impersonate another person or entity, or violate applicable law.
3. Wallet addresses
3.1 The Service stores only the public wallet addresses you choose to display on your profile. We never request, store, or have access to your private keys, seed phrases, or any other secret cryptographic material.
3.2 You confirm that any wallet address you add to your account is one you legitimately control or have the right to display.
3.3 Cryptocurrency sent to a wallet address is governed by the underlying blockchain protocol. Once a transaction is confirmed on-chain, it is irreversible. We cannot reverse, recover, or redirect funds sent to a wrong address, on the wrong network, or in the wrong token standard.
4. The Service is non-custodial
4.1 The Service is a payment-link and payment-gateway platform. We do not hold, custody, control, transmit, exchange, convert, or have access to any user funds at any time.
4.2 Every payment processed through the Service is an on-chain transfer that occurs directly between the sender's wallet and the recipient's wallet. Our software observes public blockchain activity and notifies the relevant parties.
4.3 The Service is not a bank, money-transmitter, virtual asset service provider (VASP), exchange, broker-dealer, custodian, or financial advisor. In particular, the Company does not carry out any of the virtual-asset activities (exchange, transfer, custody, administration, or control of virtual assets) contemplated by Article 15 quáter of Costa Rican Law No. 7786 (as added by Legislative Decree No. 10961). Nothing on the Service constitutes financial, investment, legal, or tax advice.
4.4 In accordance with the position of the Central Bank of Costa Rica (Banco Central de Costa Rica, BCCR), cryptocurrencies are not legal tender (curso legal) in Costa Rica and are not backed by the Costa Rican State or its financial-supervision authorities. Your use of cryptocurrency through the Service is voluntary and at your own risk.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- receive payments for unlawful goods or services;
- facilitate money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions evasion, or any other financial crime;
- impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation;
- interfere with, reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service or its underlying systems;
- send automated or bulk traffic that materially degrades the Service for other users.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that we reasonably suspect of illegal activity, with or without prior notice. Because we are non-custodial, suspension prevents further use of our hosted UI and APIs but does not affect funds already on-chain.
6. Fees
6.1 Transaction fees. We charge no per-transaction fee, no platform percentage, and no settlement fee on any payment processed through the Service.
6.2 Network fees. Blockchain network ("gas") fees are paid by the sender directly to the relevant network. We never receive any share of network fees.
6.3 Subscription plans. The Service offers a free plan and optional paid subscription plans ("Pro", "Business" and "Scale") whose current prices, billing periods and included features are listed at crypt.pe/pricing. Prices are stated in USD; where a crypto payment is used, the token amount is calculated at the quoted rate at the time of checkout.
6.4 Billing and renewal. Paid plans are prepaid for the selected billing period. Because subscription payments settle on-chain to wallets we do not control, plans do not auto-renew by charging a stored payment method; we may send renewal reminders before a period ends. If a renewal payment is not received, your account reverts to the free plan at the end of the paid period, without loss of your account or page.
6.5 Cancellation and refunds. You may stop renewing at any time. Except where required by applicable law, subscription fees are non-refundable after the relevant service period begins. This policy does not affect mandatory consumer cancellation, refund or withdrawal rights under applicable law.
6.6 Price changes. We may change subscription prices or plan features with at least thirty (30) days' prior notice, effective from your next billing period. Current platform and transaction fees are published on the Fees page (https://crypt.pe/fees); any material change will apply prospectively after reasonable notice and will not affect transactions already completed.
6.7 Taxes. Subscription prices do not include taxes. You are responsible for any VAT, sales tax, withholding, or similar amounts that apply to your purchase under the laws of your jurisdiction, and for any taxes arising from payments you receive through the Service.
6.8 Failed or partial payments. A subscription period begins only when the full quoted token amount is confirmed on-chain within the quote window. If a payment is not received, expires, or is underpaid beyond the displayed tolerance, the plan is not activated; any amount actually received on-chain can, at your request, be applied as a credit toward a fresh quote or returned by the receiving party where feasible — we cannot reverse on-chain transactions ourselves.
6.9 Plan changes. You may upgrade at any time; the unused value of your current period is applied as a pro-rata credit toward the higher plan. Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period. Credits have no cash value and are non-transferable.
7. Third-party services
The Service relies on third parties for blockchain indexing, price data, email delivery, and wallet connectivity. Your use of those services is also subject to their respective terms. We are not responsible for outages or errors originating from third parties.
8. Intellectual property
8.1 The Service, including its code, branding, design, copy, and documentation, is owned by the Company or licensed for our use, and is protected by intellectual-property laws.
8.2 You may not copy, redistribute, modify, or create derivative works of any non-open-source portion of the Service without our prior written consent.
9. Disclaimers; limitation of liability
9.1 The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including without limitation any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or uninterrupted availability.
9.2 To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company's aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service in any twelve-month period is capped at the greater of (a) USD 100, or (b) the subscription fees you have paid to us in the six months preceding the claim.
9.3 We are not liable for indirect, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, lost profits, or losses arising from cryptocurrency price volatility, blockchain reorganisations, network congestion, third-party smart-contract bugs, your loss of access to your wallet, or your erroneous transactions.
9.4 Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury where applicable, or mandatory consumer, privacy, data-protection and security rights.
10. Indemnity
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company, its officers, employees, partners, and affiliates from and against any claim, damage, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use of the Service or your breach of these Terms.
11. Termination
You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us at legal@crypt.pe. We may terminate or suspend access to the Service immediately, without prior notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, and governing law) will so survive.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may modify these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be highlighted on the Service with at least fourteen (14) days' notice. Continued use of the Service after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance.
13. Governing law and jurisdiction
13.1 These Terms are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Republic of Costa Rica, including the Costa Rican Civil Code and Code of Commerce. The competent courts of San José, Republic of Costa Rica have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, except where mandatory consumer-protection rules of your jurisdiction require otherwise.
13.2 If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms limits the non-waivable rights granted to you by Law No. 7472 (Ley de Promoción de la Competencia y Defensa Efectiva del Consumidor — Costa Rica's Consumer Protection Law), including the right to file complaints before the National Consumer Commission (Comisión Nacional del Consumidor).
13.3 You agree that these Terms may be accepted electronically. Electronic acceptance is valid and enforceable under Law No. 8454 (Ley de Certificados, Firmas Digitales y Documentos Electrónicos — Costa Rica's Digital Signatures and Electronic Documents Law).
