1. INTRODUCTION

This Agreement is a legal document and has been carefully designed to reflect the way the Cashback Services operate through both cashbacksa.com and our official mobile application programe. This Agreement will form the basis of your rights and obligations to Cashbackpoint (Pty) Limited (“us”, “our” “we”) in connection with the Cashback Services you have requested us to provide to you. Please ensure that you have read and understood these terms and conditions as this will form the basis of our contractual relationship. Once you have registered with us, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and that you understand your obligations to us.

If you require any further information in connection with this Agreement, the Cashback Services or if you have any questions you would like answered before you register your card, please contact us at support@cashbacksa.com.

2. CONDITIONS THAT APPLY TO YOUR ACCOUNT

2.1. Registering for Cashback: You must be 18 years of age before you can use our website to collect Cashback and you must live in South Africa. You will need to register through our dedicated online portal and provide all information that we request from you. Any information you provide should be accurate and not untrue or misleading. You are solely responsible for ensuring that the information you provide (including bank details and e-mail addresses) remains up to date – if you change your details, please notify us as soon as possible. All our validly registered users shall be known as ‘Cardholders’ and upon completion of your registration you will be given a unique account number which you should keep secret.

2.2. Earning Cashback: Our programe allows you to receive Cashback on Qualifying Transactions. A “qualifying transaction” is one where we receive confirmation from an Authorised Merchant or their agent that a Cardholder’s transaction is genuine, has been successfully processed and can be tracked by our systems. Cashback will be paid at the agreed rate set by the Authorised Merchant and whilst we take reasonable care to ensure all marketing and promotional Cashback rates are accurate, we cannot be held responsible for any inaccuracies or variations to the published rate. In the event that a Cardholder changes or receives an updated bank card, such that the 16-digit number or security information is altered, you must advise us as soon as possible. Failure to update this information will mean you are unable to claim Cashback until such time as our records are updated. Please note that we cannot back-date Cashback in any circumstances and your Cashback enabled card must be used at the time of purchase. Receipts Program: Where you have chosen to earn or claim Cashback as a result of our “receipts program”, you agree that Cashback may only be awarded by us where you have a transaction receipt from an Authorised Merchant via our official mobile application and that clearly shows part of the 16-digit number of your card and details of the transaction you wish to register. You agree that our decision is final and binding on any receipts submitted.

2.3.3. You should be aware that any Cashback generated by you has no cash value until such time as it is validly withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Furthermore, until the available balance is withdrawn (less any fees) the Cashback does not belong to you.

2.4. When we will not pay Cashback: You will not be allowed to withdraw Cashback where we have terminated (or are entitled to terminate) this Agreement in accordance with clause 6; you have not logged into your account for more in any consecutive 12 month period; the Cashback was not generated as a result of a verifiable Qualifying Transaction; the transaction on which any Cashback was due was reversed refunded or cancelled by any party; or you terminate or close your account with us before withdrawing all Cashback sums eligible for withdrawal. Where your Cashback balance is validly withdrawn before a transaction is reversed or cancelled, we will debit the balance of your Cardholder account accordingly.

2.5. Cashback Services and us: Neither cashbacksa.com, us nor any of our group companies are party to any of the transactions you make – this is a separate contract made between you and the retailer. As such, we would do not have any liability in respect of the goods you’ve acquired from them, nor do we have any control or accept responsibility in relation to the quality or safety of these goods or whether the retailer is legally entitled to sell these goods to you. We recommend that you make suitable enquiries of any retailer before you commit to purchasing goods/services from them, whether online or in-store. We would highlight that the Cashback Services consist of providing an online portal and administration facility to assist your collection of Cashback.
