Safeguarding

In accordance with the provisions of the Royal Decree 736/2019, of December 20th, on the regulatory environment of payment services and payment entities, which modifies the Royal Decree 778/2012, of May 4, Kantox applies adequate and sufficient measures in order to keep all your funds (cash) in accounts that are completely separate from those we use to finance our business operations, in order to ensure the safety of your funds.

By depositing the funds in separate accounts, these are protected and the users of payment services, in the event of bankruptcy of the payment entity, will have an absolute right of separation over the accounts and assets, related to possible claims from other creditors of the payment institution.

Accordingly, if something happens to Kantox, your funds would be safeguarded.
