Understanding your account
Know how your
money is held.
UV Money is not a bank. Payment and e-money services have different protections from a bank deposit.
Safeguarding, explained.
The money in the payment accounts held with Equals Money International Limited is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). Instead, your money is protected via a safeguarding method in accordance with the Payment Services Regulations / E-money Regulations. Your money is held in specially designated, safeguarded bank accounts with Tier 1 banks, and is kept separate from Equals Money International Limited’s own funds.
If a provider fails, returning funds can take time and the amount returned may be reduced by insolvency costs.
