Amuse Referral Program Rules
Last Updated: August 15th, 2023
These Amuse Referral Program Rules (“Program Rules”) govern your participation in the Amuse Referral Program. The Program Rules are in addition to any agreements between you and Amuse, including the Amuse Terms of Service, as applicable (collectively, the “Amuse Terms”). The Amuse Terms are incorporated by reference and shall apply to your participation in the Amuse Referral Program, including, if necessary, to resolve any disputes between you and Amuse related to or arising out of the Referral Program.
Program Overview
The Amuse Referral Program (“Referral Program”) is offered by Open Road Delivery Holdings, Inc. and its affiliates (together referred to as “Amuse”) and provides Users who are interested in referring their family and friends (“Referrers”) the opportunity to refer eligible individuals to join the Amuse community as new users. These Program Rules apply to both Referrers and referred Users (“Referred Users” respectively), so please read carefully to understand your respective rights and obligations.
Referrer Eligibility
To be eligible to participate in the Referral Program as a Referrer, you must (a) be a legal resident of the United States; (b) be 21+ of age; and (c) maintain a Amuse account in good standing. Referrers may be Users (have a valid Amuse account but not have completed at least one order) or Customers (have placed and completed at least one order). If you violate the Program Rules, the Amuse Terms of Service or any other applicable terms, Amuse may suspend or terminate your ability to participate in the Referral Program under any or all of your accounts.
Amuse Codes
Under the Referral Program, Amuse may provide you with a unique alphanumeric code (“Amuse Code”) to distribute to eligible individuals to become new Users. Amuse may also provide you the ability to create additional Amuse Codes. Amuse owns all rights in and to any Amuse Code whether provided to you or created by you. You acknowledge and agree that: (a) Amuse may limit the number of Amuse Codes you may create or are made available to you, (b) you have no ownership rights in any form over the Amuse Codes, and (c) Amuse may reclaim, deactivate, invalidate or terminate your Amuse Code at any time at its discretion.
How to Refer New Users
a. Invitations through the Amuse Platform.
You may invite your family and friends to become new Users directly through the Amuse Platform by entering or providing Amuse with your invitee’s contact information (all information collected by Amuse under the Referral Program shall be governed by Amuse’s Privacy Policy). Inviting an individual through the Amuse Platform may generate an automatic invitation text (SMS) or email (the “Invitation”) to the person which may be sent through your phone number or a number controlled by Amuse. The Invitation may contain a promotional offer of Amuse credit to a new User. You represent that you have the necessary consent from your invitee to send them the Invitation (either directly or through the Amuse Platform). If your invitee follows the links in your Invitation and creates a Amuse account using the information provided, your Amuse Code will be automatically applied on the new User’s.
b. Other Invitations.
You may also invite eligible individuals to become new Users by distributing your Amuse Code or Vanity URL directly and instructing them to manually input your Amuse Code into the Amuse website during checkout. If a user clicks your referral link, that code will be automatically applied and tracked. A User will not be able to apply your Amuse Code if (i) they’ve already applied another User’s Amuse Code or a different promotion code, (ii) they’ve already received Amuse credit from Amuse or another source on their User account prior to entry of your Amuse Code, or (iii) they placed an order on Amuse prior to entering your Amuse Code in their Account. If a User does not enter your Amuse Code you will not receive attribution for the referral and they will not be considered your Referred User. Amuse reserves the right to supply new Users with Amuse credit or sign-on bonuses at its discretion.
Referral Rewards
a. General.
You are eligible to earn a referral incentive (“Referral Reward”) for each Referred User that you refer to the Amuse Platform (subject to certain maximum limits and the other terms in these Program Rules). Referral Rewards can only be earned for Referrals in the United States of America. As discussed above, in order to qualify as your Referred User, the new User must satisfy the applicable reward criteria (“Reward Criteria”) as communicated to the Referred User by Amuse. The Reward Criteria are set by Amuse in its sole discretion and are subject to change at any time. The Reward Criteria may vary by market or within a particular market. Amuse, at its sole discretion, may make available certain promotions with different Reward Criteria or Referral Rewards to other Users or prospective Users. These promotions, unless offered to you, shall have no bearing whatsoever on your Agreement or relationship with Amuse.
If the new User that you refer satisfies the Reward Criteria, the type of Referral Reward you are eligible to receive may depend on (i) which Amuse User account you used to refer the new user, (ii) the Amuse region associated with your Amuse account (which may be the last location you have logged into the Amuse application), (iii) the Amuse region associated with the Referred User when they apply your Amuse Code, (iv) the Amuse region where the Referred User gave or placed their first order; or (v) other factors as determined and communicated by Amuse.
Both the Referrers and the Referred Users may be presented in the Amuse website with the amounts of the Referral Rewards they may receive if all the Referral Criteria and other conditions described herein are met. These amounts are calculated based on certain assumptions, such as, without limitation, the Referrer’s or the Referred User’s location at the time they give or take their first ride or download the Amuse app, and may not be accurate based on the actual behavior of the Referred Users. Such amounts, therefore, are only estimates and may differ based on a number of factors. Amuse will make a good faith calculation of such amounts based on the location of the Referrer and the Referred User. The Referrer and the Referred User will see the final applicable amount of their respective Referral Bonuses at the time when such Referral Bonuses are applied to their User Accounts and/or paid out.
b. Resolving Disputes over Referrals.
Only one person can earn a Referral Reward for a single Referred User. In the event that multiple persons claim credit for a particular referral, Amuse has full discretion to determine which person earned such referral according to Amuse’s systems.
c. Reservation of rights.
Amuse reserves the right to withhold or deduct Referral Rewards or Referral Credit obtained through the Referral Program in the event that Amuse determines or believes that the receipt of the Referral Reward or Referral Credit was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of these Program Rules or any other applicable agreement between you and Amuse.
