8 Official Rules of Hold
8.1 General
Gathering Hold Points (“Points”) only works for individuals attending participating institutions and during certain times of the day (“Hold Hours”). Individuals can earn Points by activating Hold, and not using their phone subsequently (“Holding”).
Individuals earn 10 Points for every full 20 minutes of Holding. Only full 20 minutes are awarded 10 Points each. In case the individual interrupts or cancels an active Holding session, only Points for any full 20 minutes are awarded. The remaining time will be void and cannot be used in the next session. We reserve the right to change the amount of Points for Holding at any time, without notice and in our sole discretion. We reserve the right to void Points that we have reason to believe have been gathered or used in violation of these TOU.
For sessions that are not during the Hold Hours, no Points will be awarded. We reserve the right to change the Hold Hours at any time, without notice and in our sole discretion.
Hold does not guarantee Points in case of technical issues or any other issues that may arise. Points can only be used in the Hold Marketplace (“Marketplace”) and cannot be exchanged for cash nor do Points constitute any liability towards Hold. Hold reserves the right to change, adapt or even remove Points and/or the Marketplace in its entirety in their sole discretion.
No purchase or payment is necessary to earn Points. This contest is open only to individuals that are either at least 18 years of age or possess legal parental or guardian consent, and are fully able and competent to enter into this contest and are legal residents of a country Hold provides its Services in.
Hold reserves the right to disqualify any user suspected of manipulation in any way.
8.2 Rewards
The TOU of each Hold Reward and Coupon (“Rewards”) are clearly indicated under each individual Reward description (see “More information”) within the Service and set forth the offer and the intent of the providing party. Any technical issues, conflicts, limitations, or scanning problems in the bar code, coupon code or any other redemption mechanism do not alter the intent of the Reward.
For third party offers made available through the Marketplace, each party’s terms of use will govern as to the respective party’s relationship with you.
Hold does not guarantee availability of Rewards at any time.
Additional terms:
Rewards are valid for a limited time only. Hold reserves the right to modify or cancel Rewards at any time.
Rewards apply only to qualifying items displaying the offer under the Marketplace.
Rewards may be limited by quantity, time and area.
Rewards may not be combinable with other offers.
Rewards will not be valid until they are applied to the qualifying item.
Rewards must be presented at time of purchase. Rewards presented after the purchase transaction has been completed should not be honored.
Individuals are required to pay any applicable sales tax related to the use of the Rewards.
Hold has no obligation for payment of any tax in conjunction with the distribution or use of any Rewards.
If individual returns any of the items purchased with a Reward, the coupon discount or value may be subtracted from the return credit.
Rewards are void if restricted or prohibited by law.
Additional terms may apply.
