Buyers and sellers conduct trading on our platform with each other; Aux Cayes as the platform provider is not a buyer or seller in these transactions. Users may request the withdrawal of their VFAs, subject to the limitations as stated in the Terms. Users will be able to access their VFAs in their wallets, which are held and safe-kept by Aux Cayes, a Seychelles registered company.

Aux Cayes provides the User with trading services including:

1. An order matching platform that automatically, and according to pre-established criteria, matches users’ trades with open orders from other users in respect of VFAs or VFA linked products:

• Spot Services permit You to trade one type of VFA for another type of VFA. You will not be able to predetermine or undertake a trade with a predetermined user. Similarly, an order may be partially filled or may be filled by multiple matching orders arising from different users.
• Additional Services permit You to trade derivative products linked to VFAs or indices composed of them. These trades are via an order matching platform that automatically, and according to pre-established criteria, match users’ trades with open orders from other users. You will not be able to predetermine or undertake a trade with a pre-determined user.

1. P2P– a Peer to Peer matching service, allowing users to exchange their fiat and digital assets.
