### Marketing communications

1. Marketing communications relating to an [offer to the public](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/offer-to-the-public) of an [e-money token](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/electronic-money-token), or to the admission to trading of such e-money token, shall comply with all the following requirements:
   1. the marketing communications are clearly identifiable as such;
   2. the information in the marketing communications is fair, clear and not misleading;
   3. the information in the marketing communications is consistent with the information in the [crypto-asset](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/crypto-asset) white paper;
   4. the marketing communications clearly state that a [crypto-asset](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/crypto-asset) white paper has been published and clearly indicate the address of the website of the [issuer](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/issuer) of the [e-money token](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/electronic-money-token), as well as a telephone number and an email address to contact the issuer.
2. Marketing communications shall contain a clear and unambiguous statement that the holders of the e-money token have a right of redemption against the [issuer](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/issuer) at any time and at par value.
3. Marketing communications and any modifications thereto shall be published on the [issuer](https://github.com/jakesenfti/micawtf/blob/main/spaces/definitions/mica/issuer.md)’s website.
4. [Competent authorities](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/competent-authority) shall not require prior approval of marketing communications before their publication.
5. Marketing communications shall be notified to the [competent authorities](https://www.mica.wtf/definitions/definitions/mica/competent-authority) upon request.
6. No marketing communications shall be disseminated prior to the publication of the [crypto-asset](https://github.com/jakesenfti/micawtf/blob/main/spaces/definitions/mica/crypto-asset.md) white paper. Such restriction does not affect the ability of the [issuer](https://github.com/jakesenfti/micawtf/blob/main/spaces/definitions/mica/issuer.md) of the e-money token to conduct market soundings.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.mica.wtf/mica/title-iv-e-money-tokens-art.-48-48/chapter-1/article-53.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
