5. Mobile Payment Services and Payment Methods

You may use the Application to pay for fuel and/or other transactions at a Station if you are located within 100 metres of the Station.

You may only use the Application to pay for fuel while you are inside your enclosed motor vehicle (not a motorcycle) or inside the Station store and in accordance with any safety rules posted at the Station. You may not use the Application if your vehicle is turned on or in motion or if you are out of your vehicle and on the Station forecourt.

In order to access and use the mobile payment services, you must first select a payment method to be linked to your Account. The payment methods accepted by Caltex will be listed in the Application and may be replaced or changed at Caltex’s discretion at any time and from time to time. Your selection of a payment method is deemed to constitute your authorization of Caltex to charge you for the provision of Services using the selected payment method.

In order to enable payment using credit card or (if applicable) StarCard, you must first provide your credit card or StarCard details through the Application and link the relevant card details to your Account. Not all credit cards may be eligible for use with the Application. If your credit card is not eligible, you will receive an error message when you enter the relevant card details.

Prior to making payment for a fuel purchase transaction, you will be prompted to enter the number of the fuel pump at the Station at which you are purchasing fuel. The Application will then produce a summary (“Purchase Summary”) of the type, volume and total price of the fuel you have purchased, along with a request for you to confirm that payment will proceed.

Upon your confirmation of the Purchase Summary and payment, you will be charged for the fuel purchase transaction through the payment method you have selected, and an electronic transaction slip of  the purchase will be sent by Caltex to the email address you have provided for your Account. If the payment method you have selected is not approved, or payment is otherwise unable to be completed, you will be prompted to select another payment method or to pay for the fuel purchase in person at the Station.

You agree that you are responsible for ensuring that the correct fuel pump number is entered for each fuel purchase, and to review and confirm the accuracy of the information contained in each Purchase Summary before confirming your payment. Caltex has no liability to you for any inaccuracies or mistakes made by you in entering and/or reviewing such information.

You will not be entitled to any return of any fuel that has been pumped into your vehicle, or any refund of any payment made for fuel that has been pumped into your vehicle. If you are not satisfied with or have any queries regarding any products or the Services provided through the Application, you may contact us through the “Feedback” section of the Application within 24 hours of the relevant transaction.

For the purposes of the Application, Caltex uses third party merchant facilities and service providers to process payments. Caltex is not responsible and has no liability for any third-party merchant facilities or payment processing carried out by any service provider, including any loss or damage arising out of any use of a third-party payment gateway. You agree that it is your responsibility to read and understand the terms of the third-party merchant facilities before using them.
