Signing up to the Platform

To access the Platform, you will need to create an account (Account). You must be at least 18 years old to use the Platform and create an Account.

You must provide basic information when registering for an Account, such as your name and email address and you must choose a password. You must ensure that any information you give to us when creating an account, including personal information, is accurate and up-to-date.

You are responsible for keeping your Account details confidential and you will be liable for all activity on your Account, including payments (for example, membership purchases), whether or not these were authorised by you, made using your Account details. You will immediately notify us of any unauthorised use of your Account. At our sole discretion, we may refuse to allow any person to register or create an Account.

Membership

When you create an Account, you must also select a membership (Membership). You may choose between different tiers of Membership with different features, inclusions, and membership periods as set out on our Platform.

Once you have created an Account and chosen a Membership, you agree to pay the membership fee set out on the Platform (Membership Fee) to benefit from your Membership.

For an Ongoing Membership (defined below), the Membership Fee will be charged upfront on a monthly basis on the calendar day corresponding to when you purchased the Membership (Payment Date). In some cases, your Payment Date may change, for example, if payment is unable to be processed or if your Membership began on a day not contained in a given month. For a Fixed-Term Membership (defined below), the Membership Fee will be charged upfront for the entire Fixed-Term Membership on the calendar day when you purchase the Membership.

Your Membership will continue for the membership period set out on the Platform.

Fixed-Term Membership

Some of our Memberships may continue for a fixed period of time, for example, 1 month, 2 months, or 3 months (Fixed-Term Membership). At the end of a Fixed-Term Membership, you may purchase another Membership. While you may cancel your Fixed-Term Membership before the end of the membership period, you will continue to get access to all of the features of your Fixed-Term Membership for the remainder of the membership period.

Ongoing Membership

We may also offer Memberships that continue until cancelled (Ongoing Membership). We may modify the Membership Fee for Ongoing Memberships from time to time. Any price changes will apply to you no earlier than 30 days following notice to you. The notice may be provided at any time via email or via notification to your Account. If you do not agree to the price change, you may cancel your Membership. You may cancel your Membership at any time in the Account page / manage Memberships (or similar) section of your Account settings. The cancellation will apply to the next month and you will continue to be able to access the features of your Membership until it is cancelled.

Payment

You must not pay, or attempt to pay the Membership Fee by fraudulent or unlawful means.

Unless otherwise stated on the Platform, the Membership Fee is stated in Australian dollars.

To the extent permitted by law, the Membership Fee is non-refundable and non-cancellable once paid.

We provide a number of payment methods on the Platform, including our third party payment processor, currently Stripe. The payment method you choose may be subject to additional terms and conditions imposed by the applicable third party payment processor. By making payment through a third party payment processor, you accept the applicable terms and conditions.

In the absence of fraud or mistake, all payments made are final. If you make a payment by debit card or credit card, you warrant that the information you provide to us is true and complete and that you are authorised to use the debit card or credit card to make the payment.

Rewards

We have no liability for your use or non-use of any Rewards. We are not a party to any transaction entered into between you and any partner or merchant with whom you use any Rewards, and we have no control over the conduct of any partner or merchant, including any provision of goods or services by the partner or merchant.

You must not use any fraudulent or unlawful means to access Rewards.

Where Rewards are cash, the cash will be provided in the form of electronic funds transfer to your nominated bank account. Where Rewards are gift-cards, the gift card will be posted to the nominated address in your Account.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you use the correct payment details. We accept no responsibility for any lost or misdirected funds.

Third party sites

The Platform may contain links to websites operated by third parties. Unless we tell you otherwise, we do not control, endorse or approve, and are not responsible for, the content on those websites. We recommend that you make your own investigations with respect to the suitability of those websites. If you purchase goods or services from a third party website linked from the Site, or use Rewards to purchase goods or services via a third party, that third party provides the goods and services to you, not us.

By using our Platform, you consent to us disclosing your personal information to third party service providers.
