Thanx Terms of Service

Welcome to Thanx! Thanx is a loyalty reward and customer engagement service (our "Service"), operated by Thanx, Inc. ("Thanx" or "We" or "Our") and made available via web ordering, our website, www.thanx.com(our "Site") and as an application for mobile devices (our "App") in conjunction with Merchants who participate in the Service ("Merchants"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern the use and access to the Site, App and related services and content made available through the Service.

By accessing or using any part of the Site, App and/or Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

Eligibility

In order to use our Service, you must:

Creating an Account

In order to access certain features of the Service, you will have to create an account.

You may only create one account and it is non-transferable. When you create an account, you agree to provide accurate, current and complete information about yourself. You are responsible for safeguarding your account and are responsible for activities that occur under your account. Notify us immediately if your password is lost, stolen, or disclosed to an unauthorized third party, or otherwise may have been compromised.

Privacy Policy

Thanx values your loyalty and we are dedicated to protecting your privacy. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for more information on how we collect, use and disclose information from our users.

Using the Service

Our Service provides a personalized reward experience for consumers, including loyalty rewards and offers, discounts, experiences, targeted promotions and general information (collectively, "Opportunities") via email, mobile device notifications and other channels. You can link one or multiple payment methods to enable automatic accrual and, in some cases, automatic redemption of rewards. We will try to deliver you the most relevant Opportunities to you.

To use the Service, you may (1) link one or multiple payment cards with your account ("Linked Cards") and (2) make eligible purchases (as defined by the merchant and described in the "Important Notes About Your Cards and Transactions" section below) with your Linked Cards or upload receipts for your purchases from merchants who participate in the Service ("Merchants") to earn progress and rewards (collectively, "Qualifying Purchases").

Making Qualifying Purchases will help you progress towards earning rewards from Merchants ("Reward Progress") and reaching a Merchant-specific threshold (a "Reward Threshold"). When you reach a Reward Threshold, you will have access to rewards offered by the applicable Merchant which can be redeemed automatically to your Linked Card or on your next visit by showing the reward to the Merchant, as applicable (collectively, "Rewards").

Important Notes About Your Cards and Transactions

By registering for the Service and linking a payment card, you agree that your payment network (e.g., MasterCard or Visa), may examine transactions (including returns) on your Linked Card to identify Qualifying Purchases and share transaction data with Thanx for the purposes of determining whether a transaction is a Qualifying Purchase, determining your Rewards Progress and when you have reached a Rewards Threshold, providing you with Rewards and notifying you about the status of your Qualifying Purchases, Rewards Progress, Rewards Thresholds and Rewards.

Not all payment cards are eligible for the Service: for example, corporate and purchasing cards, Health Savings Account (HSA), Flexible Spending Account (FSA) cards, government-administered prepaid cards (including EBT cards), insurance prepaid cards, Visa Buxx and other cards whose transactions are not processed through the payment network's own system are not eligible.

Not all merchant locations or transactions with your Linked Card may be eligible for Thanx, including PIN-based purchases, payments made through third-party digital wallets or payment apps other than Apple Pay, and other transactions not processed through the payment network's own system.

Do not use a Personal Identification Number (PIN) when paying for your purchases with your Linked Card if you want the transaction to count toward your Reward Progress.

The Service may offer additional Opportunities to you, based on your account settings and account history. At any point in time you can opt-out of receiving additional Opportunities and/or specific Merchant offerings via the Service through your account settings within the App or on the Site.

Reward Progress is not redeemable for cash or any other item of value. Your Reward Progress may be forfeited if a Merchant has restrictions associated with Reward Progress (e.g. if a Qualifying Purchase(s) must occur within a certain timeframe). You are responsible for ensuring your Reward Progress from a Qualifying Transactions is properly added to your account. It may take up to 7 days after a Qualifying Transaction is made for your Reward Progress to be viewable via your account. You should contact us if it has been more than 7 days and the Reward Progress has not been applied to your account. We must receive your request within 21 days of a Qualifying Transaction in order to credit the account. We will not be responsible for investigating any Reward Progress that has not been credited to your account 21 days after the Qualifying Purchase. Your Reward Progress can also be reversed by a Merchant or Thanx if any of the items you purchased in connection with a Qualifying Transaction are subsequently returned. We may also, at our discretion, delay any Reward Progress in order to validate or verify a Qualifying Transaction. Any attempt to earn Reward Progress through the return of merchandise in connection with a Qualifying Transaction will be considered possible grounds for termination of your account.

You acknowledge that:

Your only remedy for a failure of a Reward or Opportunity is to redeem that Reward or Opportunity at a later time and/or to contact the applicable Merchant, but you may also contact us with any questions or concerns related to the Merchant. If you have a dispute over any goods that you purchased from a Merchant in connection with the Service, you must contact the applicable Merchant. We are not responsible for (and will have no liability regarding) any such goods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may also contact us at any time, and we may, in our sole discretion, work with the applicable Merchant to help resolve your dispute. You acknowledge and agree that we and our service providers are not a party to any disputes between you and Merchants and that we have no obligation to resolve any such disputes.

RELEASE OF LIABILITY – MERCHANT DISPUTES

In addition, if you have a dispute with a Merchant about an Opportunity, a Qualifying Purchase, your Reward Progress, a Reward Threshold or any other problem related to a Reward (collectively "Disputes"), your dispute is with the Merchant and not us or our service providers. You hereby release Thanx, our affiliates, and our officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, assigns, and service providers (including payment card networks) from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions or causes of action, damages, or suits in equity of whatever kind or nature arising out of or related to such Disputes. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE §1542, WHICH SAYS:

"A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF NOT KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."

In short, this means that you release Thanx and other entities providing services to Thanx from any and all claims, known or unknown, you may have arising out of Disputes with Merchants.

SPECIAL PROGRAMS - Exclusive Offers

Merchant Product Purchases

From time-to-time, certain Merchants may offer goods or services ("Merchant Products") for purchase on our Site, our App, through Web Ordering, or otherwise through our Service (collectively, the "Thanx Platform") (such offers are referred to below as "Thanx Exclusive Deals"). The following terms, as well as any terms and conditions referenced by the applicable Merchant or otherwise displayed via the Thanx Platform when you order the Merchant Products on the Thanx Platform ("Merchant Terms"), apply to Thanx Exclusive Deals and your purchase of Merchant Products on the Thanx Platform.

For Stripe's terms and privacy policies, please go to: https://stripe.com/us/privacy. When you purchase a Merchant Product, you are purchasing such Merchant Products from the applicable Merchant – not Thanx. Thanx is not a bank or money transmitter and does not process payments for Merchant Products sold on the Thanx Platform. When you purchase Merchant Products from a Merchant via the Thanx Platform, you will receive a digital code (each, a "Redemption Code") which, subject to the Merchant Terms, is redeemable for Merchant Products as set forth in the Merchant Terms.

If you did not intend to purchase a Merchant Products or want to cancel an order, you must contact the Merchant and/or Stripe. Any decision to accept returns of, or issue refunds for, Merchant Products will be made by the merchant and/or Stripe.

Thanx reserves the right to terminate the Thanx Exclusive Deals program or any specific Thanx Exclusive Deal at any time. Thanx also reserves the right to cancel, revoke or otherwise prevent the issuance of Redemption Codes in cases of mistake and in any suspected case of unauthorized or fraudulent use. Thanx is not required to facilitate transfers of Merchant Products or Redemption Codes from you to other individuals.

You agree that Thanx may use, share and exchange information about your use of the Thanx Platform, including any purchase of Merchant Products, as permitted by these Terms or the Privacy Policy including, without limitation: to confirm the redemption of a Redemption Code; confirm whether you qualify for a Thanx Exclusive Deal; confirm whether a specific transaction has occurred; create a record of the transaction data to verify and maintain a record of your purchases; provide reports concerning activity as it relates to Thanx Exclusive Deals; perform analytics regarding the performance of Thanx Exclusive Deals; enable Thanx and/or Merchants communicate with you concerning transactions and provide general customer service and respond to your inquiries; and to respond to legal, regulatory and audit requests and resolve disputes and defend claims against or by Thanx concerning its services.

Exclusive Offer Disclaimers.

Neither Thanx nor Stripe will have any liability to you in connection with your purchase of Merchant Products or redemption of Redemption Codes, including, without limitation, in connection with:

This means that any liability regarding a Thanx Exclusive Offer/Deal lies exclusively with the Thanx Network Merchant participating Merchant.

STATEMENT CREDITS

You may be eligible to redeem Rewards for statement credits to eligible Linked Cards ("Statement Credits") in connection with some Merchant-specific deals delivered through your account (each, an "Offer"). You will earn Statement Credits for Qualifying Transactions, which are defined as transactions that satisfy all requirements specified in the terms of the individual Merchant Offers ("Offer Terms") and these Terms. The amount of Statement Credits earned on Qualifying Transactions as well as any additional terms and conditions of the Offer will be presented in the Offer Terms.

Statement Credits will not appear or be reflected on your transaction receipt from the Merchant at the time of purchase, and will instead be reflected on your periodic Linked Card statement. Subject to eligibility verification and settlement of the Qualifying Transaction, Statement Credits will typically appear on your Linked Card statement approximately 3-5 days after the final Qualifying Transaction, but may be subject to delays. Statement Credits cannot be processed if your Linked Card number expires or changes while Statement Credit is pending and not settled, or your Linked Card account is not open or in good standing. You may not receive the value associated with the Reward if the applicable issuer does not post the Statement Credit. Not all transactions made with your Linked Card (including, but not limited to, PIN based transactions, payment through a third-party digital wallet or payment app) can be monitored for eligibility for earned Rewards. Do not use a PIN when making purchases if you want the transaction to be eligible as a Qualifying Transaction to earn Statement Credits. If the transaction cannot be verified for eligibility with the Linked Card issuer, Thanx may be unable to issue a Statement Credit. Thanx, the applicable card network and your issuer will have no responsibility or liability for the failure of a Statement Credit to be posted. Neither Thanx nor the applicable card network is responsible for any finance or other charge, or impact on any Reward, feature, or term of your account resulting from the Statement Credit; your Linked Card issuer is responsible for all such charges or impacts. Redemption of Statement Credits is further subject to the terms and conditions of your Linked Card issuer.

In no event shall Thanx or any applicable card network constitute or be considered as maintaining any type of financial obligation or deposit or other asset account, or holding funds or other value for you for distribution to you. Any pending Statement Credits and any associated dollar values represent offer fulfillment amounts in process owed by the Merchant, and not your funds or balances maintained or held by any applicable card network or Thanx.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold Thanx, its affiliated companies, its service providers and suppliers (including payment card networks and payment processors) and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns harmless from and against all claims, liabilities, losses, expenses, damages, and costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from (1) a violation or breach of these Terms by you, (2) any activity related to access to or use of your account by you or any other person accessing or using your account, or (3) any activity related to your redemption of Rewards or Opportunities.
