By initiating and sending payments through the Service AIPAY, or by adding funds to your balance, you appoint our Partners as your agent to receive funds on your behalf and to make payments to the recipient whom you appoint or to a pooled account, subject to the terms and limitations of this Agreement. When you send a payment until that payment is accepted by the recipient (which may happen instantly), you will remain the owner of those funds and our Partners will retain those funds as your agent, but you will not be able to withdraw those funds or send funds to any other recipient unless the original transaction has been cancelled. When you receive payments using the Service AIPAY, you designate our Partners as your agent who holds your funds on your behalf in a pooled account until you instruct the Partner to transfer your funds.
