Introduction

This Service Level Agreement ("SLA") sets out the service commitments made by Istinara for Multi-Activities and Technology Limited ("Bravo", "we", "us", "our"), a company registered in the Republic of the Sudan under the Companies Act 1925 with Commercial Registration Number 35771, and licensed by the Central Bank of Sudan ("CBOS") as an electronic wallet provider under Licence No. 2025/FIMP/1, to registered users ("Customer", "you") of the Bravo mobile wallet application ("Service").

This SLA supplements, and does not replace, the Bravo Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy, and is issued in support of Bravo's obligations under the CBOS regulatory framework applicable to licensed electronic wallet providers.

  • Account access and authentication;
  • Wallet-to-wallet transfers;
  • Cash-in and cash-out operations;
  • Bill payment and merchant payment functions;
  • Transaction history and account statements;
  • Customer support channels operated by Bravo.

This SLA does not cover services provided by third parties (mobile network operators, banks, merchants, agents, billers, or the national payment switch) or issues arising from the Customer's own device, connectivity, or actions.

Service Availability and Transaction Processing

4.1 Platform Availability

Bravo commits to a monthly Service Availability of 99.9%, measured on a calendar-month basis. Availability is calculated as follows:

Availability (%) = (Total minutes in month − Unplanned Downtime minutes) ÷ (Total minutes in month − Scheduled Maintenance minutes) × 100

4.2 Platform Transaction Processing

Bravo commits to the following platform processing times, measured from the moment a valid, authenticated request is received by the Bravo platform to the moment Bravo dispatches the request to the relevant Downstream System and returns an acknowledgment to the Customer:

Transaction TypeBravo Processing SLA
Wallet-to-wallet transfer (intra-Bravo)≤ 3 seconds
Cash-in confirmation (once received from partner)≤ 5 seconds
Bill payment dispatch to biller≤ 5 seconds
Transaction notification (SMS or push)≤ 30 seconds

In addition to the per-type commitments above, Bravo commits to an aggregate transaction performance target: 95% of all transactions submitted to the Bravo platform are processed within 2 seconds, measured on a rolling monthly basis.

4.3 End-to-End Completion

End-to-end transaction completion — including confirmation from Downstream Systems — is not solely within Bravo's control and is therefore not committed under this SLA. Under normal operating conditions, most transactions complete within 10 to 60 seconds depending on transaction type and destination.

4.4 Downstream Failure Handling

Where a transaction cannot be completed within 60 seconds due to a Downstream System delay or failure, Bravo commits to:

  • Notify the Customer of the delay through the application;
  • Automatically reverse any Provisional Debit within 24 hours if the transaction has not completed;
  • Provide the Customer with a transaction reference for follow-up through the channels in Section 6.1.

4.5 Measurement

Compliance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2 is measured against Bravo's internal platform logs. Delays attributable to Customer device performance, network connectivity, or third-party systems listed in Section 11 are excluded from measurement.

4.6 Business Continuity

Bravo operates geo-redundant infrastructure across multiple data centres, with automatic failover to backup systems in the event of primary system failure. For critical incidents involving system failure or data loss, Bravo commits to a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 2 hours.

5

Security Commitments

Bravo commits to the following security measures for the protection of Customer accounts, funds, and data:

  • Encryptionall Customer data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2 or higher) and at rest using AES-256 or an equivalent strong cipher. Sensitive data at rest is additionally protected using strong cryptographic hashing functions where applicable.
  • Authenticationaccess to the Service requires a Customer PIN. MFA is required for account login on new devices, for high-value transactions exceeding the threshold defined in Bravo's Fraud and Risk Management Policy, and for changes to core account settings.
  • Device bindingaccounts are bound to registered devices; access from a new device requires re-verification.
  • Session managementinactive sessions are terminated automatically after a defined period.
  • Threat monitoringtransactions and platform activity are monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, by automated systems designed to detect and block suspicious activity and platform vulnerabilities.
  • Regulatory complianceBravo maintains security controls consistent with CBOS requirements applicable to licensed electronic wallet providers.
