PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The "Program" is defined as the RebateCodes.com cash back rebates program that allows registered members of RebateCodes.com to participate in cashback shopping with our Affiliate Merchants and earn Cash Back Rebates as a rewards system. The Program is offered for free and is conferred as a benefit of membership of RebateCodes.com. You are under no obligation to participate or redeem your Cash Back Rebates.

RebateCodes.com offers Cash Back Rebates by working with online retailers utilizing affiliate marketing. As a RebateCodes.com Member, you will be automatically credited, subject to the agreement terms listed below, a specified amount of Cash Back Rebates of the net purchases or a specified flat amount for purchases or offers made by you through the RebateCodes.com website at Affiliate Merchants designated by RebateCodes.com. In addition, you may receive Cash Back Rebates for participating in such other activities as may be designated by RebateCodes.com from time to time by amendment to this Agreement setting forth the specific terms.

Cash Back Rebates that are earned by you as a result of a purchase from Affiliate Merchants will be held in an account maintained by RebateCodes.com that is accessible online.  Cash Back Rebates can be requested as payment via check or Paypal once the amount in your "Available Rebates" account equals or exceeds $25.00 US Dollars . You, as the Member, must request payment through the appropriate mechanism on the RebateCodes.com web site.

RebateCodes.com is not responsible for the products or services offered by the Affiliate Merchants. RebateCodes.com is responsible only for establishing and maintaining your account based upon the information you provide, posting the purchase information provided by the Affiliate Merchants and compensating valid members who request payment of Cash Back Rebates.  

ELIGIBILITY

Participation in the Program is limited to individuals that are 18 years or older.  The program is open to US and Canadian residents for both check and Paypal rebate payments.  The program is open to international residents but Paypal is the only payment option for Cash Back Rebates.

The program cannot be combined with other reward mechanisms including but not limited to other cash back/points/miles websites.  Usage of other reward mechanisms in addition to RebateCodes.com will cause cash back rebates to not be reported from affiliate merchants and no manual adjustments will be given in these cases.

Any attempt to accumulate Cash Back Rebates by means of an automated machine or computer, scripts, software computerized or automated process, or through the use of multiple accounts is expressly prohibited. RebateCodes.com will cancel a member's account and that member will forfeit all Cash Back Rebates earned if they are found to be manipulating the system.   Cancellation of a member account due to any of the above prohibited activities or system manipulation is at the full discretion of RebateCodes.com.  RebateCodes.com reserves the right to pursue such prohibited conduct to the fullest extent of the law.

Members must maintain one unique account and any duplicate accounts are subject to cancellation.  Determination of what is a unique account is at the sole discretion of RebateCodes.com.  Duplicate accounts can result in cancellation of account(s) or removal of sign-up bonuses and/or referrals.

The Program is currently offered for purchases made through links on the RebateCodes.com web site. You must have Internet access and a valid working email address to receive the privileges and benefits of participation in the Program.

REFER A FRIEND PROGRAM

Potential members who do not initially register at RebateCodes.com are given a persistent cookie tagged with a referral link's original referrer ID.  If the potential member signs up on a future date and the cookie is still present on their web browser, the referral will be awarded given all other conditions are met in these terms and conditions.  RebateCodes.com makes every effort for the referral tracking system to be accurate but cannot be responsible for cookie tracking that is disrupted due to visitor's clearing cookies, changing computers or utilizing any other mechanism that could potentially disrupt referral tracking.

Referral bonuses are awarded at a rate of 10% of the referree's earnings and are posted to the original referrer's account when earned. The referral bonuses are earned and credited when the referree has made a withdrawel request. At that time, 10% of the amount requested will be credited to the original referrer.  Referral rebates are not rewarded on manual customer service adjustments to any referral account.

'Spamming' other individuals to join the RebateCodes.com program via unsolicited email, direct mail, newsgroups, message boards, or any other means is strictly prohibited in the Refer a Friend program.  RebateCodes.com reserves the right to remove a member from the RebateCodes.com' Program if they are found to be 'spamming'.  It is the sole discretion of RebateCodes.com to determine if a user is 'spamming'.

A referral may be removed by request of the "referrer" by contacting the customer service department via the Help section of RebateCodes.com.

Referral rebates (not regular cash back rebates) will be totaled for each calendar year and a 1099 form will be provided after a valid W9 form has been signed and completed by any member who exceeds $600 in referral rebates for that calendar year.  The 1099 form will be provided within IRS deadlines if a valid W9 is received within those IRS deadlines. The total referral rebates include the referral rebates that were paid out in each respective payment request for that calendar year.

Self referral is not allowed within the RebateCodes.com' Refer a Friend program which can include separate accounts registered in the same household.  Determination of what a 'self-referral' consists of is at the sole discretion of RebateCodes.com.  If RebateCodes.com deems two accounts as self-referrals, RebateCodes.com reserves the right to suspend the accounts, reverse referral rebates or take any other action that would remove the referral structure.

EARNING CASH BACK REBATES

To be eligible for Cash Back Rebates you must make a 'Qualified Purchase'. In order to make a 'Qualified Purchase', you must satisfy the following criteria: 

1. You must have cookies enabled on your Web browser. 
2. You must make all Qualified Purchases by clicking on the 'Affiliate Merchant's' link that appears on the RebateCodes.com site, and be successfully connected to the Affiliate Merchant's site based on that click. 
3. You must complete the 'Qualified Purchase' during the same session immediately following the initial click-through to the Affiliate Merchant's site.
4. Discount codes, coupon codes or promotion codes that are NOT supplied by supplied by RebateCodes.com can negate a 'Qualified Purchase'.
5. Purchase must not be made with a gift card or gift certificate as part of the payment method.

Members will be awarded a specified percentage of the purchase price of the order (minus taxes, shipping, fees, etc.) in Cash Back Rebates.  For example, if 2% is specified as the award for shopping at a specific merchant and a user purchases $100 worth of goods at that merchant through an RebateCodes.com link then that user has earned $2.00 in their RebateCodes.com Account. Some merchants specifiy different cashback rates for various products. In this case, an average cashback rate may be quoted but it is understood that the actual cashback rate may vary based upon the actual product purchased.

Certain cash back restrictions can apply to select merchants. The actual cashback rate you will receive can vary by product, product category, and any special exclusions as dictated by the merchange. RebateCodes will make every effort to keep our advertised rates current and accurate but in no way guarantee any rates.  Cashback rates paid to our members will be based on actual commissions received. 

Also, the following purchases at ALL merchants do not qualify for rebates:

* Gift Certificate / Gift Card purchases
* Purchases made with a gift card or gift certificate
* RX prescriptions
* Pet prescriptions
* Extended warranty products
* Recurring monthly subscriptions (excluding magazine subscriptions from magazine subscription websites)
* Trial and free products
* Any order that includes back-ordered items and monthly delivery products such as 'auto-ship' products and 'wait-list' items
* Any order that is deemed a high-volume / reseller order as determined by the merchant's sole discretion

RebateCodes.com makes no guarantees that cash back will be rewarded on purchases even if all steps are followed for a 'Qualified Purchase'.  When a rebate inquiry claim is filed by a member, RebateCodes.com customer support will contact the merchant in question and will seek a resolution but RebateCodes.com will not offer the rebate in question unless the merchant agrees to pay RebateCodes.com for that particular rebate.  If after 4 weeks, a merchant does not resolve the rebate issue, this will constitute non-payment from the merchant and the rebate inquiry cannot be paid.

Determination of whether or not a purchase made through a RebateCodes.com 'Affiliate Merchant' is a 'Qualified Purchase' is at the sole discretion of RebateCodes.com.RebateCodes.com is not responsible for tracking problems resulting from incorrect usage of the RebateCodes.com site, disabling cookies, computer issues resulting from unknown causes such as third-party software or other issues, merchant partner errors/omissions or from any other failure of tracking mechanisms.

The appropriate Cash Back Rebate information accrued from a Qualified Purchase from an Affiliate Merchant will be posted to the Pending section of your personal account within 30 days from notice thereof to RebateCodes.com by an Affiliate Merchant. Once we receive payment for your transaction and the return period defined by the Affiliate Merchant has expired, the Pending Cash Back Rebates balance, adjusted for returns or other such variables, will be moved into the Available Cash Back Rebates section of your account. Your Cash Back Rebates, according to the amount indicated in the Available Cash Back Rebates section of your account, will be eligible for request of payment when you have exceeded $25.00 in your account.

If a discrepancy occurs in an RebateCodes.com member account such as a rebate not being credited to an account and the RebateCodes.com member believes he/she made the purchase through RebateCodes.com, then the member must contact RebateCodes.com via our Customer Support forms within 90 days of the purchase date of the goods/services with proper documentation/proof of purchase.  Failure in contacting RebateCodes.com within that 90 day period will result in no customer support rebate inquiries to the merchants for the said orders/purchases.

Please note that some merchants do not allow claims to be opened on behalf of the customer (eBay, etc.).  In these cases, the restriction will be posted in the appropriate "restrictions" area for each respective merchant and no claims can be filed for that merchant as such.

In the case where a customer is filing "excessive" claims, RebateCodes.com' reserves the right to disable filing claims for an individual customer per merchant or for all merchants.  The definition of "excessive" claims will be at the sole judgement of the RebateCodes.com' customer service department.
