We reserve the right to alter these terms and conditions from time to time. The amendments will take effect immediately upon publication on the pages of the international website of Ciao Papi currently at www.ciaopapi.com.au (Website) and it is your responsibility to check this page periodically for changes. If you place an order for purchase of a Gift Card after the publication of such amendments, this will constitute an agreement by you to be bound by the amended terms and conditions.
2. USE OF GIFT CARDS
The following conditions apply to all Gift Cards:
Gift Cards are not refundable or redeemable for cash and cannot be used to obtain a cash advance.
Gift Cards are valid for 36 months from the date or purchase (subject to clause 6 below). Once the Gift Card has expired it cannot be reactivated and any unspent money will be forfeited.
When a Gift Card is purchased, the purchaser is not required to use the entire available balance on the Gift Card in one transaction. However, if the available balance on the Gift Card is not entirely expended, we will not provide change or a refund. The remaining balance may be used in conjunction with future purchases until the Gift Card expires or the balance reaches nil.
Gift Cards may only be used to make purchases up to the remaining value contained on the Gift Card. If you wish to make a purchase for an amount that exceeds the remaining value, you must pay the excess using another payment method.
Gift Cards cannot be used to purchase additional Gift Cards. Gift Cards cannot be used for any unlawful purpose.
3. GIFT CARDS
Gift Cards can be purchased in digital or physical form by using the online store on the Website. The commencement date for a Gift Card will be the date on which we provide confirmation that the order has been submitted and payment has been accepted.
When a Gift Card is purchased, the minimum value permitted is $50 and the maximum amount is $9,999.99.
Digital Gift Cards will be delivered to the email address nominated at the time of purchase. We will endeavour to electronically deliver the digital Gift Card within twelve (12) hours from the time of purchase.

We will endeavour to dispatch physical Gift Cards within three (3) business days from the day of purchase. Delivery costs will be charged in addition to the value of the Gift Card and are currently $5 for regular post and $7.90 for express post.
While we will do everything that we reasonably can do to ensure physical Gift Cards are delivered in a timely manner, we will not be liable for any loss or damage incurred by any person as a result of delay caused by Australia Post or any other carrier that we have no control over or by any event which is out of our reasonable control or foresight including but not limited to any delay caused by an incorrect delivery address being provided to us.
Title in a Gift Card does not pass to you until payment has been received. Risk of loss or damage to a Gift Card passes to you upon dispatch.
4. CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS
Payment for Gift Cards (both physical and digital) may be made by cash, Visa, MasterCard, Diners Club or American Express.
For purchases made using the online gift card store on the Website, we will process your payment via a payment gateway, which will display the total amount paid for the Gift Card on a final screen prior to payment. By clicking ‘Pay Now’ you authorise us to debit the total amount from your nominated credit card.
We will not be required to fulfil any order where a nominated payment card is declined by a financial institution. If this occurs, you acknowledge that we may contact you (by using the contact details provided with your order) to make alternative payment and delivery arrangements.
