1. The rewards
For the person you refer. 250 bonus trial Credits on top of the standard 250-Credit signup grant, 500 in total, double the standard grant, added when they first open the app after signing up through your link. This applies to genuinely new customers only; see Eligibility below. Bonus trial Credits are part of the free signup grant and expire with it, 30 days after they register.
For you. 500 Referral Credits when someone you referred buys their first Subscription, any plan, monthly or annual. Top-up purchases do not qualify.
Two things have to be true: the person must be new to SKUASCOUT, and they must subscribe. If they have had an Account with us before, including one they deleted, and whether or not they ever subscribed on it, no reward is earned. That holds however they come back: through your link, through someone else's, or on their own.
When your reward arrives
Your reward is credited as soon as the person you referred buys their first Subscription. You can start using it straight away.
Your reward is confirmed after 14 days
Anyone who buys a Subscription has 14 days to change their mind and get their money back (Terms of Service §7). During those 14 days your reward is provisional. If the person you referred withdraws during that period, the purchase no longer qualifies and we remove the 500 Credits from your Referral Credit balance.
We only ever remove Credits from your Referral Credit balance, never from your allowance or from Credits you have paid for.
After 14 days your reward is permanent, unless the payment behind it is charged back through the buyer's bank or found to be fraudulent (see Limits and review below). If the person you referred cancels or terminates later than that, including where they leave because something was wrong with the Service, your reward is not affected.
Referral Credits go into your Referral Credit balance and are available to use straight away. They do not expire while your Account is active, and they are spent after your monthly allowance but before any Credits you have paid for.
Referral Credits are not refundable. You did not pay for them, so they have no refund value and are never included in any refund, whether you withdraw from a purchase within 14 days or your Account is closed.
2. Eligibility and attribution
- You need a SKUASCOUT Account in good standing to take part.
- The person you refer must be a genuinely new SKUASCOUT customer, at least 18 years old, and must sign up through your link within 30 days of first opening it.
- Someone who has had an Account with us before is not a new customer, including one they deleted, and regardless of whether they ever subscribed on it. They receive no bonus Credits, and the referral earns no reward for anyone.
- One reward per referred person, ever. Where more than one link has been used, the most recent one counts.
- Referring yourself, including through additional, alias or connected Accounts, is not allowed. We check for this as described in Privacy Policy §5.
3. Limits and review
Up to 3 rewards per calendar month are credited automatically. Rewards beyond that are reviewed by our team before crediting, normally within a few business days. A reward that is credited appears in your Referral Credit balance.
If a qualifying purchase is withdrawn from within 14 days, disputed through the buyer's bank, or found to be fraudulent, we remove the corresponding reward from your Referral Credit balance, to the extent it is unspent. Where a reward has already been credited and the underlying purchase turns out to have been fraudulent, we may reverse it, see Fair use below.
4. Credits, not cash
Referral rewards are SKUASCOUT service Credits. They have no cash value, are not refundable, and cannot be transferred, sold, exchanged or paid out in money. In every other respect they work like any other Credits in your Account.
5. Fair use
- Do not post your link on coupon or discount aggregator sites, run paid advertising on it, or present it as an official SKUASCOUT offer.
- Share your link through your own channels only. SKUASCOUT never emails anyone on your behalf.
- Where you share your link publicly, on a website, a video, a newsletter or social media, say clearly that it is a referral link and that you receive a reward for it. Some countries require this.
Where we reasonably suspect abuse we may investigate, withhold or reverse rewards that have not yet been spent, and suspend Accounts involved. We will not reverse a reward you have already spent, if abuse is established after Credits have been used, we may instead close the Account under Terms of Service §16.
6. Changes to the program
We may change or end the referral program at any time, with effect for the future. Rewards you have already earned are honoured, and a change never affects a referral where the qualifying purchase has already been made.
7. Privacy
We process referral data, your code, the link between referring and referred Accounts, and abuse-prevention signals, as described in our Privacy Policy. We store nothing about the people you share your link with unless they sign up themselves.
