4.6 At its sole discretion, Animates may update a Member account with a reward as a consequence of a purchasing behaviour, incentive and/or promotional activities.

 4.7 Animates Petpoints expire twelve (12) months after they have been earned.

 

5. Member Tiers

5.1 You will be allocated to a Member Tier on the basis of your total unexpired Petpoints balance, being the total Petpoints earned over the immediately preceding 12 month period.  Members who were previously members of the FFL Loyalty Programme were initially allocated to a Member Tier on the basis of their total transaction spend with Animates and Vets during the twelve months immediately preceding the Transfer Date (as evidenced by their FFL Loyalty Programme Loyalty Points balance as at the Transfer Date).

5.2 Members are allocated to Member Tiers on the basis of their APP balance in the following manner and as depicted below:

(a) Member status: Members whose unexpired Petpoints balance is up to 99 Petpoints

(b) Bronze status: Members whose unexpired Petpoints balance is between 100 – 349 Petpoints

(c) Silver status: Members whose unexpired Petpoints balance is between 350 – 999 Petpoints

(d) Gold status: Members whose unexpired Petpoints balance is 1,000+ Petpoints

(e) Platinum: Members must be invited by Animates to join this tier and will only belong to this tier for twelve months from the date of invitation, following expiry of which they will be allocated to one of the other Member Tiers described above which aligns with their unexpired Petpoints balance as at that date (unless Animates advises the Member that their invitation to the Platinum tier is extended for a further twelve month period).

5.3 Once you have earned the required Petpoints for a higher Member Tier, we will upgrade your Membership to the higher Member Tier (and upload the relevant rewards for the upgraded Member Tier) within (i) in the case of a purchase in-store qualifying you for the upgrade, 48 hours after the valid purchase is made, and (ii) in the case of a purchase online qualifying you for the upgrade, 48 hours after dispatch of the valid purchase items.

5.4 When you are upgraded to a higher Member Tier, your unexpired Petpoints balance is transferred to that higher Member Tier with you, but Petpoints comprising that balance remain subject to their original expiry dates despite the upgrade.

5.5 From the date that you are allocated to or upgraded to a Member Tier, you have twelve months to maintain your Membership in that Member Tier.  You will be deemed to have successfully maintained your Membership in the particular Member Tier if, on the date being twelve months after the date you are (i) allocated to, (ii) previously deemed as having successfully maintained, or (iii) upgraded to the particular Member Tier (as applicable), your unexpired APP balance is within the range of APP required for the particular Member Tier. Once you have successfully maintained your Membership in the particular Member Tier, we will upload the relevant rewards for the particular Member Tier within 48 hours of the successful maintenance.  

5.6 If, on the date being twelve months after the date you are allocated to or upgraded to the particular Member Tier, your unexpired APP balance is less than the number of Petpoints required to maintain Membership in that Member Tier, you will be allocated to the lower relevant Member Tier associated with your actual unexpired Petpoints balance as at that date (“downgrade”).  For the avoidance of doubt:

(a) We will not downgrade you any more frequently than once in any review period, and such downgrading will only occur (if justified) at the end of the review period.  In this Agreement “review period” means each twelve month period commencing on the date that you became a member of your current Member Tier (or in subsequent review periods within the same Member Tier, the Animates Petpoints anniversary of that date);

(b) If you are not downgraded at the end of the first review period (i.e if you have maintained the required unexpired APP balance to maintain your Membership in your current Member Tier), you will have a further twelve months to maintain that required unexpired Petpoints balance again and it will only be if at the end of that next twelve month period that you have not maintained the relevant unexpired Petpoints balance that you will be subject to a downgrade; and 

(c) Any upgrade to a new Member Tier resets the review period, such that the review period will be twelve months from the date of upgrade.

 

6. Redeeming Rewards

6.1 Members in each tier are eligible to receive, upon entry into, or upon being deemed to have successfully maintained, the relevant Member Tier, the rewards and other benefits set out in the table below (subject to the expiry dates of the rewards and benefits in the table below).

10.4 If, in accordance with the “Grooming Policy”, you obtain a refund for a full-service groom that tallied towards your Frequent Groomer Balance, the Frequent Groomer Balance earned in that transaction will be deducted from your Membership and any Grooming Voucher issued as a result of that Frequent Groomer Balance earned will be cancelled.

10.5 If you return a product purchased in full or in part using an APP Anniversary Voucher, we will not provide a cash refund for the portion of the purchase price which was met using the APP Anniversary Voucher.

10.6 If you are entitled to a refund, in accordance with any services refund policy maintained by Animates or a Vet, for services paid for in full or in part using a Vetcare professional services voucher or a Grooming Voucher, we will not provide a cash refund for the portion of the price which was met using the Vetcare professional services voucher or Grooming Voucher (as the case may be) and instead that portion of the price which was met using the Vetcare professional services voucher or Grooming Voucher (as the case may be) will be credited to your membership account in the form of a new Vetcare professional services voucher or Grooming Voucher (as the case may be)  corresponding to the amount paid by the original Vetcare professional services voucher or Grooming Voucher (as the case may be).

 

11. Termination of Membership

11.1 You are free to leave the Loyalty Programme at any time. Should you wish to leave, you may contact us and ask to deactivate your account, following which your Membership will be terminated.  If you terminate your Membership, any accrued APP, rewards, Grooming Vouchers, Frequent Feeder Offers, or other benefits accrued or offered pursuant to your Membership will be forfeited and void and you will have no further entitlements from the programme.

11.2 We may terminate your Membership where:

(a) We have reason to believe that any of the information provided in your application for Membership is incomplete or inaccurate;

(b) We have reason to believe that you have used or attempted to use your Membership for any dishonest or improper purpose or in breach of these terms and conditions; or

(c) You do not use your Membership for a period of 24 months or longer.

11.3 If we terminate your Membership under clause 11.2, all accrued APP, reward, Grooming Vouchers, Frequent Feeder Offers, or other benefits accrued or offered pursuant to your Membership will be forfeited and void and you will have no further entitlements from the programme.

11.4 We may terminate your Membership without cause if we intend to replace the APP Loyalty Programme with a new loyalty programme and we consider that termination of the full APP Loyalty Programme pursuant to clause 12.1 below is not appropriate (including, without limitation, where the new loyalty programme is being rolled out gradually by region or otherwise, which requires the termination of specific individual memberships before the termination of other individual memberships).

11.5 If we terminate your Membership under clause 11.4, you may use any rewards, Grooming Vouchers or other benefits on your account until they expire (except for any entitlement to free delivery when shopping online, which will terminate at the same time that your Membership is terminated).

(b) You may use any rewards, Grooming Vouchers or other benefits which have accrued before the termination date until they expire (except for any entitlement to free delivery when shopping online, which will terminate at the same time that the APP Loyalty Programme is terminated).

12.2 Where our business is sold, we reserve the right to transfer the APP Loyalty Programme (and your Membership) to the purchaser of our business, and you consent to the disclosure of information about your Membership to the purchaser for those purposes.
