These terms apply globally to all users regardless of their country or jurisdiction of residence.No payment will be activated or processed on the FRC platform until you have completed the e-signature agreement at the point of sign-up. By completing that e-signature, you confirm your acceptance of these Terms and Conditions and authorise FRC to process payments in accordance with your selected payment method and plan. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not proceed with registration or any purchase on the platform.These Terms and Conditions should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, which together form the complete agreement between you and FRC governing your use of the platform. 

To access the FRC platform and its services, you are required to create an account and complete our Know Your Customer identity verification process. KYC verification is mandatory and must be completed before you are granted access to examination environments or credential issuance features.You agree to provide accurate, complete, and current information during registration and throughout your use of the platform. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.KYC verification and proctoring fees are paid directly to our third-party identity verification and examination proctoring providers. FRC does not retain these funds. Accordingly, KYC verification and proctoring payments are strictly non-refundable under any circumstances, including in the event of cancellation, withdrawal, or account closure. This applies regardless of whether the KYC or proctoring service has been fully utilised at the time of the refund request.

All purchases made on the FRC platform, including courses, examinations, exam insurance, memberships, and study support add-ons, are subject to your agreement to these Terms and Conditions via e-signature at the point of sign-up.No payment will be activated, processed, or charged to your chosen payment method until your e-signature has been successfully completed and recorded. By signing electronically, you confirm your agreement to these terms and authorise FRC to process all payments associated with your selected products and payment plan.All prices are displayed on the platform at the time of purchase. FRC reserves the right to update pricing at any time, provided that any price change will not affect purchases already confirmed and signed for by the user prior to that change.

FRC offers interest-free payment plans on eligible products, allowing you to spread the cost of your purchase across agreed monthly instalments at no additional interest charge.Payment plans are binding financial commitments. Once a payment plan has been in place for more than 14 days from the date of the original purchase and e-signature, it is non-cancellable. You remain liable for all outstanding instalments under the plan regardless of whether you continue to actively use the platform, complete the course, or sit the examination.Where a refund is requested within the 14-day cancellation window described in Section 6, any refund issued will be subject to the deduction of a 20% administration and payment processing fee calculated on the total purchase value, not solely the amount paid to date.Failure to meet scheduled payment plan instalments may result in suspension of your platform access until outstanding payments are brought up to date. FRC reserves the right to refer persistent non-payment to a debt recovery service and to pursue outstanding amounts through appropriate legal channels.

All courses offered on the FRC platform are sold to individual users on a personal, non-transferable basis. Courses may not be transferred, gifted, resold, or shared with any other person under any circumstances.

The content provided within each course is intended to support your preparation for relevant examinations and professional practice. It does not constitute regulated financial advice.FRC reserves the right to update, amend, or improve course content at any time in order to ensure accuracy, regulatory compliance, and educational quality. Such updates do not constitute a material change to your purchase and do not give rise to any right of cancellation or refund outside of the standard 14-day cancellation period.

FRC operates a 14-day cancellation policy in accordance with applicable consumer protection legislation. This right applies globally as a standard minimum entitlement, subject to the exceptions and deductions described in this section.6.1 Courses If you wish to cancel a course purchase, you must submit your cancellation request in writing within 14 days of the date of purchase. Refunds approved within this period will be subject to a deduction of 20% of the total purchase price to cover administration and payment processing costs. The remaining balance will be returned to your original payment method within a reasonable timeframe.If you are on a payment plan and request a cancellation within 14 days, the 20% deduction applies to the full value of the course, not only the instalments paid to date. Any outstanding instalments will be cancelled and no further payments will be taken.After 14 days from the date of purchase, no refund or cancellation will be permitted on any course purchase. If you are on a payment plan, all remaining instalments remain due and payable in full.6.2 Examinations and Exam Insurance The 14-day cancellation window applies from the date of purchase of the examination or exam insurance product, not from the date on which the examination is scheduled or sat. Refund requests made within this 14-day period will be subject to the same 20% administration and payment processing deduction. No refund will be issued after 14 days from the date of purchase regardless of whether the examination has been sat.6.3 Study Support Add-Ons Study support add-ons are non-cancellable and non-exchangeable from the point of purchase. No refund, exchange, or credit will be issued for study support add-ons under any circumstances.6.4 Payment Plans After 14 Days As stated in Section 4, payment plans become non-cancellable after 14 days from the original purchase date.
