General
The term "txt2buy Ltd", or "us", or "we", or "our" refers to txt2buy Limited (registered in England under company number 06799704) whose registered office is at 5th Floor, 89 New Bond Street, London W1S 1DA. Our VAT number is 979709152.
We provide a SMS payment fulfilment service which enables customers to purchase or sample products ("Product(s)") via SMS text message ("the Service") using the payment system on our third party service provider's website Realex Payments (www.realexpayments.com) ("Third Party Payment System").
txt2buy is engaged as an agent by the sellers of Products (each a "Company") to provide the Service. Your contract to purchase any Product will be with the relevant seller of the Product and not txt2buy. The identity of the Company and a link to their terms and conditions will be notified to you before you make a purchase. The seller's terms and conditions of sale will apply to your purchase of the Product and you must ensure that you read these before purchasing the Product via our Service.
The term "you" refers to the subscriber to the Service.
You may access and use this Website and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial use only. If you would like to use the Service for a commercial purpose, or in any way that is not permitted by these Terms of Use, you must first obtain our explicit approval.
