* The table indicates the minimum FTC Promo Credit amount that can be awarded. Skrill reserves the right, upon its sole discretion, to increase the FTC Promo Credit and decide whether to award the FTC Promo Credit in the form of a discount or a top-up on a case by case basis.

**Validity period means the period in which the promotion will be valid for, counted from the day of registration of the SMT User.

Please find a few practical examples below:

A first-time SMT user may receive Promo Credit in the form of a discount of EUR2 if their send amount is between EUR1000 – 1499 and they are sending money from Germany to India.  This would mean that if the user agrees to send EUR1000, they will be charged EUR998 (less any transaction processing fees) for such a transaction, but USD1,000 will be sent on their behalf.

Another first-time SMT User may receive Promo Credit in the form of a top-up of EUR2 if their send amount is between EUR1,500 – 1.999 and they are sending money from Germany to India. This would mean that if the user agrees to send EUR1500, they will be charged EUR1500 (less any transaction processing fees) for such a transaction, but EUR1,502 will be sent on their behalf.

2.2 Promo Codes Promotion (existing customers only)

When you enter the relevant Promo code when prompted and complete an Eligible Transaction using the SMT Service you will be offered a once-only Promo Credit provided that you meet the criteria as set below in Table 2:
