While Jem facilitates these processes, it is not responsible for the management of savings, investment returns, refunds, or any obligations arising from an employee’s participation in the Fynbos platform. Employees should review Fynbos’s Terms and Conditions for full details on their rights and responsibilities.

To retrieve this information, Jem must share the employee’s Personal Information with VCCB. Jem processes Personal Information in compliance with the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA). Personal Information will only be shared with VCCB if the employee provides explicit consent. Jem is not responsible for their accuracy or any financial decisions made based on them. 

Flash Products T&Cs

  1. INTRODUCTION
    1. These Terms and Conditions govern the relationship between JEM RSA Opco (Pty) Ltd (“JEM”) and JEM Employees (“the Customer”) who purchase, access, or use prepaid and electronic products and services (“the Products”) made available via the Flash Mobile Vending (Pty) Ltd (“the Provider”) distribution platform on JEM’s systems and devices (“the JEM Platform”).
    2. JEM acts exclusively as an authorised retailer and facilitator of the Products under a formal Retailer Agreement concluded between JEM and the Provider (“the Retailer Agreement”).
    3. The Products include, without limitation, prepaid airtime, data bundles, utility tokens (such as electricity), digital vouchers, entertainment subscriptions, gaming credits, and other prepaid services or vouchers offered by the Provider through various third-party product originators and service providers.
    4. By accessing, initiating, confirming, or completing any transaction on the JEM Platform, the Customer expressly confirms their acceptance of, and agreement to be bound by, these Terms and Conditions, including any referenced policies or Provider-specific terms disclosed prior to or at the time of the transaction.
    5. These Terms and Conditions incorporate by reference the Retailer Agreement and the applicable Commercial Schedule, which outlines the Products, pricing, commissions, settlement terms, and responsibilities governing the distribution and sale of Products through the JEM Platform.
    6. The Customer acknowledges that JEM’s role is limited to facilitating access to the Products and processing the related transactions. JEM does not own, produce, guarantee, or redeem the Products and is not responsible for their functionality, quality, continuity, or regulatory compliance. The Customer’s contractual relationship in respect of the underlying Product always lies with the Provider or relevant third-party originator.
    7. JEM’s responsibilities and liabilities are strictly limited to the accurate facilitation, processing, and settlement of the Products via the JEM Platform. JEM expressly disclaims any liability related to Product failure, delayed delivery, service quality, or any actions or omissions by the Provider or third-party originators, unless such liability is required under applicable South African law.
    8. The Customer must carefully review these Terms and Conditions prior to completing any transaction via the JEM Platform. Amendments to these Terms and Conditions may be made from time to time, and the latest version will be published on the JEM Platform and become binding immediately upon publication.
    9. Continued use of the JEM Platform following such publication will constitute the Customer’s acceptance of the revised Terms and Conditions.
    10. These Terms and Conditions apply solely to the use of the JEM Platform and the purchase and use of the Products, and do not affect or alter any existing employment or contractual relationship between JEM and the Customer beyond the scope of these Terms.

  2. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    1. By initiating, confirming, or completing any transaction through the JEM Platform, the Customer acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions, together with any applicable Provider-specific or Product-specific terms displayed or made available to the Customer.
    2. These Terms and Conditions form a legally binding agreement between the Customer and JEM. If the Customer does not agree with any aspect of the Terms and Conditions, they must not proceed with any transaction. Initiating a transaction without such agreement constitutes unauthorised use of the JEM Platform.
    3. Where Products are subject to additional Provider-specific terms and conditions, such terms shall be incorporated into the transaction, and the Customer must familiarise themselves with the relevant terms before completing the transaction. By proceeding, the Customer confirms that they accept all applicable terms.
    4. These Terms and Conditions shall remain in force and govern each transaction between the Customer and JEM for the duration of the Customer’s access to and use of the JEM Platform.
    5. JEM may, in its sole discretion, amend or replace these Terms and Conditions at any time. Where material changes are made, JEM will endeavour to notify the Customer through an appropriate communication channel or platform interface. The Customer’s continued use of the JEM Platform after publication of amended Terms shall constitute binding acceptance thereof.
    6. JEM reserves the right to deny, suspend, or revoke the Customer’s access to the JEM Platform where the Customer is suspected of non-compliance with these Terms and Conditions, fraud, abuse, or any form of unlawful conduct, without prejudice to JEM’s other rights.

  3. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES 
    1. The Products available for purchase on the JEM Platform are determined by the Provider and include airtime, data, electricity tokens, gaming and entertainment vouchers, and similar prepaid value products. These offerings may vary from time to time, and JEM makes no guarantee regarding the continued availability of any specific Product.
    2. Product descriptions, pricing, and transaction terms are made available to the Customer before confirmation of each transaction. JEM does not warrant the accuracy of Provider-provided product information, nor the compatibility, reliability, or suitability of the Products for the Customer’s personal or business needs.
    3. The Products are delivered and fulfilled directly by the Provider or its designated third-party service providers. JEM is not responsible for the operational or technical execution of the Product delivery and does not control the service quality, speed, or outcome once a transaction is completed. JEM may, however, assist the Customer with inquiries, subject to the Provider’s terms and cooperation.

  4. TRANSACTION PROCESS 
    1. The Customer is solely responsible for ensuring that all transaction details are correct before confirming any purchase, including but not limited to mobile number, account details, Product type, and amount.
    2. Once confirmed, a transaction is final, irrevocable, and binding. JEM has no discretion to cancel, reverse, or modify a completed transaction unless expressly authorised by the Provider in terms of its own refund or dispute resolution policy.
    3. Each successful transaction will generate an on-screen, email, or SMS confirmation, which shall constitute prima facie proof of the transaction having been properly processed.
    4. JEM may delay, suspend, or cancel a transaction if it reasonably suspects fraud, unauthorised access, system errors, regulatory constraints, or breach of these Terms and Conditions. In such cases, JEM may request additional information from the Customer and notify the Provider as necessary.

  5. PAYMENT AND BILLING 
    1. Transactions must be paid using prefunded balances as prescribed in the Retailer Agreement. The Customer must ensure that sufficient balance exists to cover the full value of each transaction, including any applicable service or handling fees.
    2. JEM is not liable for transaction failures resulting from insufficient funds, payment errors, or delays in funding that are attributable to the Customer or to external payment processors or financial institutions.
    3. JEM may issue transaction histories upon request, but the Customer remains solely responsible for monitoring their own account balance and reconciling transaction records.
    4. In the event of accidental overdraws or misapplied transactions, JEM reserves the right to recover the value of such amounts by offsetting them against future payments or requiring direct repayment. The Customer may not withhold or offset payments due to JEM without prior written agreement.

  6. CUSTOMER OBLIGATIONS 
    1. The Customer agrees to use the JEM Platform and the Products strictly in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and all applicable laws, regulations, and Provider-specific requirements. This includes any limitations imposed on Product use, expiry, service area, value restrictions, or permitted methods of redemption.
    2. The Customer must ensure that their use of the Products does not infringe the rights of any third party or violate any statutory or contractual obligations. Products may not be resold, transferred, or used for any unlawful or unethical purpose. Any attempt to tamper with the JEM Platform, reverse-engineer its systems, or bypass security features is strictly prohibited.
    3. The Customer is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of their user credentials, device access, and personal information used on or in connection with the JEM Platform. JEM will not be liable for any unauthorised activity arising from the Customer’s failure to implement adequate security measures.
    4. The Customer must report any irregularity, unauthorised use, suspected fraud, system malfunction, or discrepancy in their account or transaction history to JEM without delay. Failure to do so may limit the Customer’s rights to dispute the matter or to obtain remedial support.
    5. The Customer agrees to act in good faith and cooperate with JEM and the Provider in the investigation of any transaction queries or complaints. Misuse of customer service channels, including false reporting or abusive conduct, may result in suspension or termination of access to the JEM Platform.

  7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION 
    1. The Customer acknowledges and accepts that JEM does not provide the Products, and that JEM’s role is limited to facilitating the transaction. JEM shall not be responsible for the quality, suitability, stability, redemption, availability, or compatibility of any Product purchased through the JEM Platform.
    2. To the fullest extent permitted by law, JEM shall not be liable to the Customer or any third party for any loss, whether direct or indirect, consequential, incidental, or special, arising from or in connection with the use or inability to use the Products or the JEM Platform. This includes, but is not limited to, loss of data, service downtime, financial loss, or reputational harm.
    3. JEM does not warrant that the JEM Platform will operate uninterrupted, error-free, or in a fully secure environment. Technical or operational delays may occur due to network issues, system maintenance, or Provider-side disruptions. JEM shall not be liable for any resulting inconvenience or consequential losses.
    4. The Customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless JEM, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, demands, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including legal costs on an attorney-and-own-client scale) arising from the Customer’s use of the JEM Platform, breach of these Terms and Conditions, or any unauthorised, unlawful, or negligent act or omission.
    5. If any portion of this clause is deemed unenforceable under applicable law, the remainder shall continue in full force and effect.

  8. SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF SERVICES 
    1. JEM reserves the right, in its sole discretion and without prior notice, to suspend, restrict, or permanently terminate the Customer’s access to the JEM Platform and/or the Products if such suspension or termination is required by the Provider, a regulator, or a competent authority, or if JEM reasonably suspects that the Customer has engaged in fraud, misconduct, abuse, unauthorised use of the Products, or any breach of these Terms and Conditions, or where JEM determines that such action is necessary to protect the security, integrity, functionality, or reputation of the JEM Platform. 
    2. Where commercially reasonable and contractually permissible, JEM will endeavour to provide the Customer with written notice outlining the reason for the suspension or termination and may offer the Customer a reasonable opportunity to respond or rectify the matter. However, JEM reserves the right to act immediately and without notice where required by law, in response to an instruction from the Provider, or where an urgent operational or security risk exists. 
    3. Any suspension or termination shall not relieve the Customer of any obligations or liabilities incurred prior to such action, nor shall it entitle the Customer to a refund or compensation unless expressly required in terms of the applicable Provider conditions or South African law.

  9. CANCELLATIONS, REFUNDS AND DISPUTES 
    1. Cancellations and refunds are not available unless specifically provided for by the Provider. All sales are final once confirmed on the JEM Platform. If a refund is permitted by the Provider, the Customer must comply with the Provider’s process and documentation requirements. JEM will facilitate the communication but does not guarantee a successful outcome.
    2. The Customer must report any dispute, including but not limited to failed transactions, overcharges, or unredeemable Products, to JEM within seven (7) calendar days of the transaction date. Failure to do so may result in forfeiture of the right to seek assistance or dispute resolution.
    3. JEM will log and escalate qualifying disputes to the Provider or Flash in accordance with their standard operating procedures. JEM shall act in good faith but accepts no liability for delays or outcomes in Provider-led dispute resolution processes.
    4. All disputes shall be resolved in accordance with South African law and the governing terms of the Provider. JEM may request supporting documentation or written submissions from the Customer to assist in the dispute process.

  10. PRIVACY AND DATA PROTECTION 
    1. JEM processes all personal information received from the Customer in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the Protection of Personal Information Act, 4 of 2013 (“POPIA”).
    2. By using the JEM Platform and completing a transaction, the Customer expressly consents to the collection, use, and processing of their personal information by JEM, including the sharing of necessary personal information with the Provider or Flash, where required for the purpose of transaction fulfilment, regulatory compliance, internal audits, reporting, or fraud prevention.
    3. JEM will implement appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the Customer’s personal information. These safeguards may include encryption, secure storage, restricted access, and internal compliance training.
    4. JEM shall retain the Customer’s personal information only for so long as is required to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required under law or the Retailer Agreement.
    5. In the event of a security compromise or data breach that affects the Customer’s personal information, JEM will notify the Customer and the Information Regulator as soon as reasonably possible, in accordance with POPIA.

  11. CHANGES TO TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    1. JEM reserves the right to amend, update, or revise these Terms and Conditions at any time. Changes may be made to reflect regulatory developments, Provider requirements, operational updates, security improvements, or enhancements to the JEM Platform.
    2. The most current version of the Terms and Conditions will always be available on the JEM Platform and will become binding immediately upon publication, unless otherwise indicated.
    3. The Customer is responsible for reviewing the Terms and Conditions prior to completing any transaction. Continued use of the JEM Platform following any update constitutes the Customer’s full acceptance of the revised Terms and Conditions.
    4. JEM may, where practical, notify the Customer of material changes via the JEM Platform interface or internal communications, but is under no obligation to provide individual notice. Failure to review or receive notice of the updated Terms and Conditions will not affect their enforceability.

  12. GENERAL CONDITIONS
    1. These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between JEM and the Customer relating to the purchase and use of the Products through the JEM Platform and supersede any prior representations, communications, or understandings.
    2. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable by a court or authority of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
    3. No relaxation, waiver, or indulgence by JEM shall constitute a waiver of any of its rights unless explicitly made in writing.
    4. The relationship between the Customer and JEM pursuant to these Terms and Conditions is that of independent contracting parties. Nothing herein shall be interpreted as creating any partnership, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship between the parties.

  13. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION 
    1. These Terms and Conditions and any dispute, claim, or cause of action arising out of or in connection with them shall be governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa.
    2. The Customer consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction in the Republic of South Africa, including the High Court, for the adjudication of any dispute arising from or in connection with these Terms and Conditions.
    3. Nothing herein shall prevent either party from seeking urgent interim relief in any court of competent jurisdiction where such relief is necessary to protect rights, prevent harm, or preserve the status quo.
