10.2 Secondary Card is a supplementary card linked to the primary cardholder's account, typically issued to individuals authorised by the primary cardholder.

10.4. Cardholder Limits: The primary cardholder has the authority to set spending limits, view transaction history, and control certain functionalities related to the secondary card through the provided mobile app or account management tools.
10.5. Monitoring Transactions: The primary cardholder may monitor transactions made by secondary cardholders through the account management tools. The primary cardholder shall promptly report any unauthorized transactions.
10.6. Insufficient Funds: If a secondary cardholder attempts a transaction with insufficient funds in their account, the transaction will be declined, even if the primary cardholder has funds in their personal account.
10.7. Merchant Categories and Transaction Authorization: Transaction approvals are based on the merchant's registered business type, identified by the 'MCC code,' rather than specific details of a secondary cardholder's purchases. We use the MCC code to restrict specific merchant types only during transaction processing. Please note that once a merchant is disabled, it cannot be reactivated.
10.8. Loss or Theft: In the event of loss or theft of the secondary card, the primary cardholder shall notify us immediately to deactivate the secondary card to prevent unauthorized use.

This ensures a seamless transition for users as they move beyond the age of 18, allowing them to access the appropriate features and services in accordance with our policies.
10.12. Secondary Card Fees: The primary cardholder is responsible for any fees associated with secondary card issuance, usage, or replacement, as defined in the applicable fee schedule.

10.15. Account closure: As a secondary cardholder's account is a sub-account of a primary cardholder's Personal account, closing the primary cardholder's Bourgeois Bohème personal account means the secondary cardholder's account will also be closed.
10.16. Personal Information: By authorizing a secondary card, the primary cardholder acknowledges that certain personal information of the secondary cardholder may be collected, processed, and shared as outlined in our Privacy Policy.
10.17.
