Documents

See the paper before you sign.

Three documents of the kind used in an advance, and the nine emails we send, shown with hypothetical values. Each document is labelled as a sample. None is a record of an advance or an offer.

Three moments

When each document arrives

Before the advance, an Advance Confirmation. If collateral is sold, a sale statement. After repayment, possibly a release statement. All three use one illustrative advance, an example in bitcoin: 2.0000 BTC pledged at USD 100,000, an advance of USDT 100,000, and a fixed fee of 9.25% of the advance, USDT 9,250. Other assets work the same way, with their own prices; the levels for each asset are stated in the Advance Confirmation.

Document 1 · Before the advance

Advance Confirmation

You propose an Advance Confirmation. We may accept, vary or decline it. If we agree, both sides sign it before any advance is made. It states the fee as one fixed amount in USDT or USDC, what you receive after the upfront half is deducted, what you owe at maturity, and the price of your collateral at each LTV level. Read it as the single page that fixes your numbers.

The fee is a fixed 9.25% of the advance (how the fee works). A signed confirmation states the fee for that advance.

Document 2 · If collateral is sold

Sale statement

If the price falls far enough that we sell some of your collateral, we send you a statement within one business day after the sale: how much was sold, the prices, the costs deducted and how the money was applied, in a fixed order (after a sale).

This sample is a partial sale at 85% LTV, when the price reaches USD 61,544. At that price about 0.80 BTC could be sold, if the sale is made at that price and before costs. You could keep about 1.20 BTC, and what you owe would fall to about USD 55,390. We decide how much to sell, acting in a commercially reasonable manner. In a fast fall, more may be sold. The sale can happen with little or no notice, so the statement may be the first you hear of it.

If sale proceeds do not cover what you owe, the shortfall remains a debt.

Document 3 · After repayment

Release statement

After you repay, we release your collateral (repay and release). A release statement, if we send one, would record the amount released and the address it went to, which is always an address in your name that you whitelisted.

In this sample (an example in bitcoin) the client repays USDT 104,625 at maturity: the advance of USDT 100,000 plus the maturity half of the fee. All 2.0000 BTC is released, less the network fee.

Email templates

Every email, in the order it is sent

Nine emails from welcome to release. Each says what happened, gives the figures and says what, if anything, you need to do. The figures use the same illustrative advance. Square brackets mark details that come from your own records.

Getting started

From: Box Advance <hello@boxwind.io>
To: [client contact]
Subject: Welcome to Box Advance
Sent: when you first contact us

Hello [name],

Thank you for getting in touch about an advance for [client]. Here is what happens next. We carry out due diligence on you and the collateral you plan to pledge, and you send us the documents on our checklist. You sign the Master Crypto-Backed Advance Agreement (security over your collateral, custody terms) and the Risk Disclosure Statement. You whitelist your addresses and send each asset on its own network. You submit a proposed Advance Confirmation, which we may accept, vary or decline. If we agree, both sides sign, and we pay the advance less the upfront half of the fee.

You send no collateral until you have signed the agreement, and we pay nothing until both sides have signed an Advance Confirmation.

Every application is subject to due diligence, and we may decline any application or request. Nothing in this email is an offer.

Reply to this email with any question. Box Advance is for businesses, high-net-worth individuals and professional investors, subject to due diligence.

Subject: Onboarding complete: your vault is ready
Sent: when the checks and documents are complete

Hello [name],

We have finished the checks on [client], your documents are in order, and the Master Crypto-Backed Advance Agreement and Risk Disclosure Statement are signed. Your vault is ready.

To pledge an asset, send it only to its own deposit address, on its own network only: [deposit address and network for each asset]. ETH goes on Ethereum mainnet only, and BNB on BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20) only. XRP must carry the destination tag: [destination tag]. Sending on the wrong network can lose the asset, and we are not liable for assets sent to the wrong address or network.

Collateral counts once it has the confirmations, or the finality, its network requires. The confirmations for each network are stated in your Advance Confirmation.

The addresses we may pay and return assets to, all in your name: [whitelisted USDT or USDC address] and [whitelisted return address for each asset].

When your collateral has arrived, you can submit a proposed Advance Confirmation. We may accept, vary or decline it.

From: Box Advance <hello@boxwind.io>

Subject: Your Advance Confirmation is ready to sign
Sent: when we have agreed your proposed Advance Confirmation

Hello [name],

We have agreed the proposed Advance Confirmation you submitted, [with the changes marked], and it is ready for both sides to sign. Please read it and the risk disclosure first. We pay nothing until both sides have signed. Illustrative figures follow.

If the price of your collateral falls before we pay, so that the advance would be more than 60% of the collateral value, we may reduce the advance or wait until you add more collateral.

From: Box Advance <hello@boxwind.io>
To: [client contact]
Subject: Advance paid: USDT 95,375 sent
Sent: when we pay the advance

Hello [name],

We have sent USDT 95,375 to [whitelisted address] on [network]. That is your advance of USDT 100,000 less the upfront half of the fee, USDT 4,625. Transaction: [transaction reference].

At maturity, on [maturity date], you owe USDT 104,625: the advance plus the maturity half of the fee, USDT 4,625.

Your starting LTV is 52.3%. We monitor your LTV continuously, including outside business days. Watching it is also your responsibility, and a notice may not reach you in time. At 75% we make reasonable efforts to tell you.

While the advance is open

From: Box Advance <hello@boxwind.io>
To: [client contact]
Subject: Advance [reference] has reached 75% LTV
Sent: when LTV reaches 75%

Hello [name],

Your LTV is 75.0% at a reference price of USD 69,750. You owe USDT 104,625. We make reasonable efforts to tell you at this level. No action is required at this level, but you still owe the full amount.

If the price falls to USD 65,391 (80% LTV), we send a Top-Up Notice and you have 24 hours to act. If it falls to USD 61,544 (85% LTV), we may sell part of your collateral without further notice.

The price can move quickly, so we may not be able to warn you first. To lower your LTV now, add collateral to your vault or repay part of the advance.

From: Box Advance <hello@boxwind.io>
To: [client contact]
Subject: Action needed within 24 hours: top up advance [reference]
Sent: when LTV reaches 80%

Hello [name],

Your LTV is 80.0% at a reference price of USD 65,391, with your collateral worth USD 130,781. To bring it below 75%, do one of these:

  • add at least 0.1334 BTC to your vault; or
  • repay at least USD 6,540.

You have 24 hours from the time this notice was sent, until [deadline]. Added collateral counts only once it has the confirmations or finality its network requires. A repayment counts when we receive it in cleared funds.

If your LTV reaches 85% at any point, including before the deadline, we may sell part of your collateral without further notice. At USD 61,544 about 0.80 BTC could be sold, if the sale is made at that price and before costs. We decide how much to sell, acting in a commercially reasonable manner. In a fast fall, more may be sold.

To: [client contact]
Subject: Advance [reference] is due on [maturity date]
Sent: before the maturity date

Hello [name],

This is a reminder. We are not obliged to send one, and the maturity date in your Advance Confirmation is what counts. Your advance is due on [maturity date]. You owe USDT 104,625: the advance of USDT 100,000 plus the maturity half of the fee, USDT 4,625.

Pay in USDT on [network], as set out in your Advance Confirmation. We release your collateral within one business day of receiving everything you owe on all your advances in cleared funds, less network fees. We may delay a release if the law requires it.

To extend, agree a new Advance Confirmation, with a new fee, and sign it before [maturity date]. Nothing renews automatically. If the advance is not repaid at maturity, we may apply your collateral. No amount is added for late payment.

At the end

How we write them

One thing per email

Each email has a subject line that says what has happened. The body gives the numbers, then the next step. We do not use alarming language. Warnings and notices follow the rules in how we contact you. A sale can happen with little or no notice, and a notice may not reach you in time, so these emails do not replace watching your own LTV.

These are samples. Every name, figure and field is hypothetical. They are not a record of an advance, an offer, or advice. The signed agreement and your Advance Confirmation govern.

Every application is subject to due diligence, and we may decline any application or request. Nothing on this site is an offer.
