4 POINTS, TIERS AND VOUCHERS

4.1 The points you earn count toward the second tier membership as well as toward bonus vouchers.

4.2 The date when you become a member will constitute the “Start Date” of each Membership Year. The “Membership Year” is the 12 months following the Start Date of each year. The tier level of your membership is based on the points earned during the current or previous Membership Year whichever is the highest. If you are a new member, or do not have sufficient points to qualify you to the second membership tier level, your membership tier level will start at the first tier. If you reach the second tier during a Membership Year you will stay at the second membership tier level during the rest of the Membership Year and the following Membership Year. If you during the Membership Year do not accumulate sufficient points to qualify you to the second membership tier level, you will return to the first tier for the following Membership Year.

4.3 After the end of each Membership Year all points counting towards the next membership tier level will be reset and start over at 0 at the beginning of each Membership Year.

4.4 Points counting towards vouchers are valid until the next Start Date.

4.5 When you have earned 100 points, a voucher of £3 will be issued in your app or on your H&M account page. You can use the voucher both at H&M and H&M HOME, in store and online. 

4.6 The bonus voucher will be issued 30 days after the date that the sufficient point limit is reached. You can only obtain 5 bonus vouchers per calender month, and a maximum of 20 bonus vouchers per 12 month period.

4.7 Vouchers cannot be exchanged for cash or used for purchases with a total value that is lower than the value of the voucher.  The sum total of the purchase, after the voucher is applied, must exceed £1. Non-Commercial goods, such as shopping bags in store, do not count towards this sum.

4.8 Each bonus voucher is only redeemable once and is applied on all articles in the order. The discount is split between the articles so that the discount share per article remains the same for all articles in the order. The respective reduction of the individual articles of a purchase remains, even if some articles of the purchase are returned. The discount advantage of the bonus checks is not redistributed to the remaining articles of the order in case of a return.

4.9 In the case of a return, the discount advantage received through the bonus voucher (value of the bonus voucher) expires. Only the amount paid for the article will be refunded, not the savings from the bonus voucher. If you activate the bonus voucher to be used in an physical H&M- or H&M HOME-store, as applicable, the bonus voucher must be redeemed at the checkout within 15 minutes after activation, otherwise it will be irretrievably deleted and expire. Printouts or screenshots of the bonus voucher will not be accepted. Legal recourse is excluded.

4.10 The bonus vouchers cannot be used to purchase H&M Gift Cards, or be applied to past purchases.
