You will not lose access to Your C3Pay Account, C3Pay Card or access to Your profile within the C3Pay App just because Your employment has ended. However, You will no longer receive any salary credits into Your C3Pay Universal Account from Your ex-employer, and any fee waivers or benefits You might have been subject to due to being a former employee of Your ex-employer will stop immediately. From that point, You will be subject to the standard fees shown in

The Bank's involvement is in its capacity as the BIN sponsor and card issuer; Edenred operates the C3Pay programme under its sponsorship agreement with the Bank. The regulatory split between Edenred (as “Programme Manager”) and the Bank (as “Issuer”) means that: (a) fund safeguarding, card issuance and banking regulatory obligations are the responsibility of the Bank; and (b) App operations, CBUAE compliance, consumer protection compliance, data protection, customer-facing service delivery, the obligations under

To apply for a C3Pay Universal Account, Your Employer must submit Your details to Us as part of its bulk employee onboarding process. We do not accept applications to open a C3Pay Universal Account directly from individuals. Account creation can only be initiated by a signed corporate employer on behalf of its employees.
Once You receive Your C3Pay Card, You will complete digital onboarding through the C3Pay App, including identity verification (KYC) using Your Emirates ID (in some instances where Your EID is not yet available You must upload Your passport to verify Your residency status in the UAE). Your IBAN will be created, and Your C3Pay Card will be activated, only once Your profile is validated internally against company internal policies and Applicable Laws. If You already hold a C3Pay Universal Account from a previous or another Employer, completing onboarding with a new Employer will link that Employer to Your existing Account rather than create a new one.
You will be directed to contact customer support to complete this process. If We reject Your application to open a C3Pay Universal Account, We will notify You within 5 working days of receiving Your application, by email or via a push notification within the C3Pay App, stating the reason for rejection and how to appeal the rejection or submit a complaint, except where notification is not required under applicable anti-money laundering or counter-terrorist financing rules.

To be eligible for a C3Pay Universal Account, You must:
a)be a legal resident of the UAE;
b)be employed by an Employer that is a Client of Edenred at the time of Your C3Pay Universal Account Creation;
c)have a total monthly income of AED 5,000 or lower; and
d)self-declare at the time of Your application, that You do not hold any other active current or savings account with any other Licensed Financial Institution or bank in the UAE.
Meeting the above eligibility criteria does not guarantee the opening of a C3Pay Universal Account. Account opening remains subject to identity verification, compliance and regulatory checks, and final approval by Edenred and/or the Bank.
We may, from time to time, verify Your continued eligibility for a C3Pay Universal Account, including but not limited to Your residency status. If You no longer meet the eligibility criteria in Clause 4.3, We may take the actions against You as described in the Warning box and Clause 15 which may result in the suspension or closure of Your C3Pay Universal Account, the C3Pay Card and/or the C3Pay App.
