Cryptocurrency payments, exchange rates and refunds
This section applies when DOCKER BIKES PTY LTD accepts a payment in native USDC for an order placed with Docker Bikes. Product prices remain in Australian dollars (AUD). Nothing in this section excludes, restricts, or modifies any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
The supported asset is native USDC. The supported networks are Base Mainnet and Polygon Mainnet. The invoice states which one network applies. Only that network and that asset are supported for that invoice.
- The price of the goods is the AUD amount shown for your order.
- The USDC amount is calculated from the exchange rate available when the payment quote is generated. It is not a separate price in USDC.
- The quote is valid only until the time shown on the payment screen. After that time, do not send USDC to the quoted address unless Docker Bikes confirms a new quote.
- You must send the exact USDC amount to the receiving address shown for that quote, on the network shown for that quote.
- Sending another cryptocurrency, using another network, or sending bridged USDC may result in funds that Docker Bikes cannot credit or recover. Do not send a payment if the amount the recipient will receive is different from the quoted USDC amount.
- Blockchain network fees are generally your responsibility. A wallet or exchange may also deduct a fee, so the amount Docker Bikes receives can be less than the amount you entered. The quoted USDC amount does not include those fees.
- A crypto payment is not confirmed when you submit it in your wallet. It is confirmed only after the required blockchain confirmation and after Docker Bikes has validated the asset, network, address, and amount.
- An underpayment or an overpayment is reviewed manually. It does not automatically complete or cancel the order, and it does not trigger an automatic blockchain refund.
- A confirmed blockchain transfer generally cannot be reversed. Contact Docker Bikes about a payment error or a refund request. Do not send a second payment unless Docker Bikes asks you to.
Crypto refunds
Whether a refund is available follows Docker Bikes' existing sale terms, including the pre-order terms where they apply, and the Australian Consumer Law. Paying in USDC does not remove a statutory guarantee and does not make the purchase non-refundable.
The purchase price is the AUD order total. A refund, when one is due, is calculated from the refundable AUD value of the order. AUD is the usual refund currency, unless the law requires otherwise or you and Docker Bikes agree a different method.
Example: an order of AUD 3,990 is quoted at 1 USDC = AUD 1.50, so the quote asks for 2,660 USDC. If a full refund is later due, the refund is AUD 3,990. A movement in the USDC exchange rate does not reduce that AUD amount, and Docker Bikes does not automatically return 2,660 USDC. A refund in USDC happens only if you and Docker Bikes agree to it. Before any USDC is sent, Docker Bikes tells you the conversion rate and the USDC amount and you agree to both. A blockchain fee is not deducted from a full refund that is legally owed.
USDC refunds are not sent automatically. Before a cryptocurrency refund is sent, Docker Bikes may confirm your identity and the refund wallet address with you. That confirmation is not a basis for refusing a refund that the sales terms or the Australian Consumer Law require. Docker Bikes does not promise to recover a transfer that used an unsupported asset or network.
