Terms & Conditions

Program Terms and Conditions

The iRedeem Points Website (as hereinafter defined) customer rewards program(the “iRedeem Program”) offers customer members enrolled in iRedeem (“Members”) reward points (“Points”) in connection with each dollar of purchase at any merchant enrolled in the iRedeem Program (“Merchant”). The iRedeem program allows Members to obtain cash vouchers for use at the businesses of Merchants who are actively enrolled in the iRedeem Program, through the online platform on the Site, in exchange for the redemption of Points. 

iRedeem Inc., (referred to in these Terms and Conditions as the "iRedeem",“We” or “Us”), its subsidiaries and its affiliates, require that all visitors to and Members of (collectively referred to as “You” or as the “User” or “Users”) this site on the World Wide Web (the "Site") adhere to the following Terms and Conditions (the "Terms and Conditions" or"Agreement"). By accessing the Site you indicate your acknowledgement and acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. Any User who is a repeat visitor to the Site should refer back to these Terms and Conditions from time to time, as iRedeem may make periodic changes to them.  This is described in greater detail in paragraph 016.


01   PROGRAM MEMBERSHIP


To participate in the iRedeem Program, an individual must be a Member. iRedeem Program Membership is granted in iRedeem’s sold discretion and may be withdrawn in iRedeem’s sole discretion with or without notification. An application for enrollment in the iRedeem Program may be completed at a Merchant business location or on the Site. Only one iRedeem Membership is available per person.


02   iREDEEM POINTS CARD

 

Each Merchant will have re-loadable point’s cards for use in the iRedeem Program (“iRedeem Point Cards”). Upon enrollment in the iRedeem Program, each Member will receive an iRedeem Point Card for the purpose of keeping track of Points earned. The iRedeem Point Card is the property of iRedeem and can be revoked at any time by iRedeem in its sole discretion, with or without notification. The iRedeem Point Card is not a credit card. Members must immediately notify iRedeem in the case of a lost or stolen iRedeem Points Card. When iRedeem is made aware of a lost or stolen iRedeem Points Card, iRedeem will inactivate the iRedeem Point Card associated with that Member. A new iRedeem Point Card may be provided in the sole discretion of iRedeem. All accumulated, unredeemed Points will remain intact and be transferred to a new iRedeem Points Card. iRedeem is not responsible for any redemption made using a Member’s lost or stolen card. Use of iRedeem’s services, including without limitation the iRedeem Program, is restricted to individuals of full age and legal capacity who are Members in good standing of the iRedeem Program.


03   EARNING POINTS


Points may be earned by Members in connection with each dollar of purchase (before taxes) at a Merchant business. Points are not transferable or assignable unless expressly permitted by iRedeem. Points will be earned at the rate of 1 point for each dollar spent at a Merchant business. Occasionally,through specified promotions, additional Points or other benefits may be awarded to certain Members or offered by certain Merchants. iRedeem may change the basis on which Points are awarded(including the number of Points awarded)at any time, with or without notice, in iRedeem’s sole discretion. Each Merchant will have a policy with respect to refunds. In most cases, in the event of a refund, the Merchant will automatically deduct the Points earned for that particular purchase. Except as specifically provided herein, Points have no cash value and are not exchangeable for cash. Points are void if sold, purchased,assigned or transferred. 


04   REDEMPTION OF POINTS

 

Prior to the redemption of Points, you are required to register your iRedeem Points card by creating an account on the Site. Upon registration, you will be able to redeem Points on the Site in exchange for cash vouchers to be used at various Merchants businesses (“Merchant Cash Vouchers”). The Merchant Cash Vouchers you obtain through the iRedeem Site are redeemable for goods or services from that Merchant. The Merchant, not iRedeem, is the seller of the goods and services and is solely responsible for redeeming any Merchant Cash Voucher you obtain. All redemption for Merchant Cash Voucher are final.  You will not be able to return a particular Merchant Cash Voucher for the return of points or for a different Merchant Cash Voucher unless expressly stated herein. Due to the fact that Merchant Cash Vouchers are usually only offered in limited quantities, Merchant Cash Vouchers for every Merchant will not necessarily be available at any given time.

As a redeemer and issuer of the Merchant Cash Vouchers, the Merchant shall be fully responsible for any and all injuries, illnesses, damages, claims,liabilities and costs suffered by or in respect of a User or any of its other customers, caused in whole or in part by the Merchant, as well as for any liability arising from unredeemed Merchant Cash Vouchers or portions thereof.
