9.1.3. A Monea Payment in relation to which all the steps referred to in Articles 9.1.1 and 9.1.2 have been performed by User, is considered a confirmed Monea Payment and cannot be revoked by User.

9.2. User agrees that Company may transfer the amount referred to in Article 9.1.1.2 to Payee’s Registered Account immediately after Company has received the confirmation from User’s Card Bank referred to in Article 9.1.5, before the Company has actually received the total sum referred to in Article 9.1.4 to Company’s account held with a credit institution.
