How to Collect Points

As a Member, you will earn points by purchasing qualifying products and services from participating merchants and suppliers, and through other offers from time to time.  We will award points to You based on the type of product or service You purchase from participating merchants and suppliers.  We reserve the right to change the number of points awarded for such purchases at any time.  No points will be awarded for any shipping, taxes, gift wrapping or other excluded expenses.  We do not provide points for for all purchases You make with participating merchants and suppliers.  For example, certain certain gift cards, purchases, special offers or other benefits offered to Members from participating merchants and suppliers will not qualify for points.  You can learn more about such non-qualifying products or services, when applicable, at the websites.  Points will be awarded only after You comply with all applicable rules, limitations and terms and conditions for collecting points.  If You return a product or cancel a service for which points are allocated, We will deduct such points from Your accumulated or future point award.  Your points will be awarded to Your account 30-60 days after You make your qualifying product or service purchase from participating merchants and suppliers, payment for such product or service is verified by the merchant or supplier, the product is delivered to You or the service is performed and You have complied with all applicable rules, limitations and terms and conditions.  We reserve the right to award points later if additional time is needed for verification.  You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of Your point account .  If You do not believe that points were properly accrued to you, You must notify Us at MemberServices@HomePoints.com within 15 days of the day points were credited to You.  We reserve the right to require proof of purchase of qualifying products and services from qualifying merchants or suppliers.  Our determination regarding the awarding of points is final and binding.
