- Participating in a Refer and Earn promotion (either by referring your friends, family, suppliers or business network to sign up or take action with a referral link or code) can be a great way to earn exclusive benefits by referring other new businesses to sign up and complete actions within the Greener for Business platform (“Referral Benefits”).
- Earning Referral Benefits: Subject to these Terms, you (“the Referrer”) will earn Referral Benefits if:
- a referred person clicks on the unique referral link provided to you; and
- completes a Qualifying Action (as defined in the “referral invitation”) (“Referral Process”).
- Referral Benefits cannot be earned:
- if you are not an Australian resident or Australian-based business;
- for existing Greener for Business accounts (unless otherwise specified in the referral invitation); or
- for any new employees added to an existing Greener for Business account; or
- applied retrospectively after a new Greener for Business account has been created if the referral link has not been used; or
- for any Qualifying Action completed by the referrers own business and/or own employees (unless otherwise specified in the referral invitation).
- A “Qualifying Action” includes both:
- the creation of a new Greener for Business Account; and
- a completed Qualifying Greener for Business Offer Redemption.
Claims that don’t include both of the above elements of a Qualifying Action will not be accepted by us, or will claims that do not follow the Referral Process.
- A Qualifying Greener for Business Offer Redemption as indicated in the referral invitation, accompanying promotional materials, Greener for Business website, or Greener mobile application includes:
- uptake of the advertised Greener Supplier product or service, as identified on the Greener for Business Platform from time to time; and
- must be redeemed via the Greener for Business Platform.
- A Greener for Business Offer Redemption will not be considered a Qualifying Action if:
- the Referred Member redeems the offer directly with the supplier and not via the Greener for Business platform;
- the Referred Member is an existing user of the supplier product and/or service being promoted; or
- the Referred Member redeems the offer and subsequently cancels inside 30 days of redemption.
- Referral Benefits: Once earned, the Referrer will be awarded the Referral Benefit as outlined in the referral invitation for each new qualifying Greener for Business Member no later than 60 days after the Referral Process has been successfully completed by you. The Referral Benefit will be awarded in the form of a prepaid Mastercard (“Prepaid Card”) issued via Card.Gift. The maximum value awarded for each Referral on completion of a Qualifying Action will be $AUD50. Greener reserves the right to combine the total Referral Benefits earned, and issue one Prepaid Card for the total value earned.
- Third Parties: Referral Benefits are subject to the Card.Gift Terms and Conditions and Prepaid Mastercard Terms and Conditions viewable at https://card.gift/page/terms-and-conditions. Greener is not responsible if a Prepaid Card is lost, stolen, destroyed, or used without permission; and Referral Benefits cannot be redeemed for cash.
- Sharing Referral Links: Referrals should only be used for personal and non-commercial purposes. Referral links should not be published or distributed on commercial websites (including but not limited to coupon websites such as OzBargain) or on social media or blogs.
- Limitations: You are prohibited from “spamming” anyone with referral invitations. This includes mass emailing, texting or messaging people you do not know or using automated systems or bots through any channel to distribute your referral link. You are prohibited from paying to advertise their referral links, including paid social media advertisements. We reserve the right to prohibit any specific referral mechanism being used to promote the Refer a Friend Program.
- Prohibition on hate speech: You agree that any referral made by you will be done without use of i-frames, bots, or any other method of automated distribution. You agree that you will comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including without limitation those related to the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) and the Privacy Act 1998 (Cth). Any referral content used by you in association with the Referral Process must not include inappropriate content, such as hate speech, pornography, violence, or other similar content that we determine in our sole and absolute discretion could negatively impact our goodwill or reputation. We reserve the right to remove you from participating in this promotion if we determine in our sole discretion that you have violated any of these restrictions, and at such time you will forfeit all Referral Benefits.
- Multiple Referrals: A referred business may only use one referral link. If a referred business receives multiple referral links, only the Referrer associated with the final click through used to create the new Greener for Business Account and/or complete the Qualifying Action in Greener for Business will receive the Referral Benefit.
- Termination and Changes: We may suspend or terminate the Refer and Earn or a user’s ability to participate in it at any time for any reason.
- Updates to the Terms: We reserve the right to update the referral program at any time without prior notice. If we modify these referral program, we will post the modification on the Greener for Business website, applications, or services, which are effective upon posting. Continued participation in any referral program after any modification shall constitute consent to such modification.
- Costs and Tax Implications: You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any costs associated with claiming the Referral Benefit, including, but not limited to, any applicable taxes or charges.
- Liability: We make every effort to ensure the referral tracking system is accurate but are not responsible if a referral link is disrupted due to your, the Referred Customer’s or a third party’s actions or failure to act, including without limitation, failing to complete sign-up and subsequently undertaking the Qualifying Action directly without using the Unique Referral Link, changing computers or devices, or any another mechanism that potentially could disrupt the operation of the referral tracking technology.
