Product Information

Target Market

Class of Consumer

Likely objectives and needs

A Consumer:

• with a verified gold account (account) with the distributor; and
• who may be seeking a reloadable prepaid Card to use gold held within their account to purchase eligible goods and services immediately upon presenting the Card for use, wherever Mastercard is accepted.

Likely financial situation

A Consumer who has gold within their account available to redeem into Australian Dollars which can then be used to make purchases with the Card and to pay any fees associated with the use of the Card.

Product Description

A reloadable prepaid Mastercard with the following key attributes:

• ability to purchase eligible goods and services electronically where Mastercard is accepted;
• ability to redeem gold held in an account with the distributor into Australian Dollars for the exact amount of the transaction (including fees), without first redeeming any gold prior to the point of transaction;
• ability to load the Card to a digital wallet, allowing Consumers to make purchases with eligible mobile devices; and
• a requirement to have gold available within an account for redemption to use for purchases with the Card and pay fees (including foreign exchange fees) for using the Card.

It is only available to Consumers who:

• have an account with the distributor of the Card; and
• who are subject to the terms and conditions of the distributor in respect of the buying, selling, sending and spending of gold through the distributor's gold platform.

Appropriateness

The product (including its key attributes) is consistent with the objectives, financial situation and needs of Consumers, as it provides the means to redeem gold from an account held with the distributor into Australia Dollars for the exact amount of the transaction (including fees), without needing to first redeem a predetermined amount of gold into Australia Dollars prior to the transaction.

Distribution Conditions

Marketing and Promotion

A distributor must only market and promote the product through:

• advertising through media (including social media), physical marketing materials (such as banners, brochures or flyers) and any other marketing material available to the general public; and
• any other EML approved communication channels (including telephone, email and social media).

This condition is appropriate as the target market for obtaining an account with the distributor, through which the product is available, is wide.

Retail Product Distribution Conduct

A distributor must only engage in retail product distribution conduct (other than general advice):

• only to Consumers who have a verified account with the distributor; and

• only through:

• the distributor's digital platform (such as their website or mobile app) and other EML approved third party digital platforms; and
• any other EML approved communication channels (including telephone, email and social media).

This condition is appropriate as the target market is limited to those who have an account with the distributor, and it is the most appropriate method for Consumers within the target market to obtain the product. Such conduct poses limited risk to Consumers.
