  3. Simple Loans Service

    1. Our simple loans service (“Simple Loans Service”) operates by instant matching Borrowers and Lenders via the Platform.
    2. The Simple Loan Service allows you to:
      1. apply for a loan via the Platform as a Borrower; and/or
      2. invest your money via the Platform as a Lender.
    3. All Lenders are lending to each individual Borrower at the Platform. This means that the Pledged Funds are loaned to all existing Borrower Loans according to the proportion of the Pledge Amount pledged by each of the Lenders.
    4. The share a Lender has in a Borrower Loan is equal to the proportion of the relevant Lender´s Pledged Amount and all funds in the Simple Lending Pool.
    5. A Lender’s share in any Borrower Loan is dynamic, and will change with:
      1. variations in Simple Lending Pool; and/or
      2. variations to the terms of a Borrower’s Loan.
    6. The repayments due from each relevant Borrower are collected during each day. These repayments are put in the Simple Lending Pool.
    7. At the end of each day all interests on repayments from Borrowers are distributed proportionally amongst each of the Lenders. The principal amounts repaid from Borrowers remains in the Lending Pool, to be loaned to new Borrowers until the Lender requests repayment from the Lending Pool.
    8. Deposits put in the Simple Lending Pool are put into a queue and are waiting if the pool is overfilled by some percentage of money allocated to loans. For example if the pool has allocated loans of £100k, and the limit is set to 10%, we will allow maximum £10k of extra funds to be in the pool, the remaining funds will waiting in the queue.
    9. Withdrawals from the Simple Lending Pool are also put into a queue, they will wait in the queue in a case if there is not enough free funds in the Lending pool, until the funds will become available from the incoming loan repayments or deposits from other Lenders.
    10. We represent your account balance and transaction amounts internally in 15 decimal places. This allows us to fairly distribute the earned interest between many lenders. Your earned interest accumulates at these decimal places and is available for your transactions at precision of 2 decimal places (£0.01).
    11. Loan agreements on the Platform are between the individual Lenders and Borrowers. Pay2Eat is not a party in these loan contracts, but has rights to act on behalf of Lender(s) in any situation and action.
    12. Pay2Eat changes the individual Lenders on each Loan contract according to the proportional rules of the Simple loan service and only between Pay2Eat lenders. No other changes of Lender’s loan Lenders are allowed during this phase of the loan. In case of a defaulting loan, the loan title is transferred to the Provision Fund.
    13. The individual loan lender transfers are executed:
      1. on the days when an incoming repayment is received for that particular loan and is to be redistributed between Lenders,
      2. and in the case of default, on the day the loan is put into default and transferred to the Provision Fund
      3. the Provision Fund can transfer the loan to a third party for loan recovery purposes

You can find detailed instructions related to the bank transfer in your Pay2Eat Account together with your unique reference code.
    3. You must always use the unique reference code when executing a bank transfer to the Pay2Eat Client Account because the code allows us to correctly identify your payment and record your transactions to your Holding Account.
    4. Your Pay2Eat Account contains two separate virtual accounts: a Holding Account and a Simple Lending Account.
    5. The money transferred from your bank account to the Pay2Eat Client Account (in accordance with clause 4.2) will be first recorded on your Holding Account. There is an investment settings, that controls the automatic investment of the funds received on your Holding Account into the Simple Lending account.
    6. In order to invest any amount into Borrower Loans, you must follow the steps detailed on the Platform to invest in Borrower Loans. This will be represented on your Pay2Eat Money Account as a transfer of funds from your Holding Account to your Simple Lending Account. We aim to make the transfer instantly, but it may take some time depending on the availability of funds from other Lenders and amount of funds already allocated to the loans. We are balancing the funds in the Simple lending pool in proportion to the funds allocated for the loans, if there is too much funds in the Simple Lending Pool unallocated for the loans, your transfer will be put into a queue.
    7. The amounts transferred from your Holding Account to your Simple Lending Account will be your Pledge Amount/s. The Pledge Amount/s in your Lending Account will be made available to the Simple Lending Pool.
    8. Pledge Amount/s can be allocated by Pay2Eat to a Borrower Loan. Pay2Eat complies with the client money rules of the FCA and all other applicable UK requirements relating to client money.
    9. When Pay2Eat allocates some or all of your Pledge Amounts to a Borrower Loan, you will be deemed to have entered into a Loan Agreement with such Borrower. A copy of the relevant Loan Agreements can be requested from Pay2Eat.

Your funds assigned to be Pledge Amount/s will be held in a queue if Pay2Eat is unable to allocate these to Borrower Loans.
    12. If you wish to stop lending any Pledge Amount via the Pay2Eat Simple Loans service, you can request a transfer from your Simple Lending Account to your Holding Account by following the instructions available on the Platform.

    4. Any repayment is subject to the terms of each and any relevant Loan Agreement, and the availability of your funds.

    8. The money withdrawal transfers are subject to a positive ID and bank account holder name verification in order to satisfy the current Anti Money Laundering regulation.

  6. Provision Fund

    1. Lenders participation in these Simple Loans services are protected by a fund that has been created by the initial accession of Pay2Eat and is supplemented by fees paid by the Borrowers (the “Provision Fund”).
    2. The Provision Fund acts a security in the case of a Borrower defaulting on a Borrower Loan. In a case of a Borrower Loan repayment being late for more than 2 months, the Provision Fund will make available an amount equal to the missing payments to the Simple Lending Pool (the “Default Amount”). The Default Amount will be then distributed amongst all the relevant Lenders proportionally.
    3. Where the Borrower fails to make any Borrower Loan repayments, Pay2Eat will take debt recovery action and subject to the terms of the relevant Loan Agreement/s and Pay2Eat will either repay the Default Amounts to Lenders or terminate the Borrower Loan/s and repay all amounts due to Lenders under the Borrower Loan/s.
