3. How the Program Works

3.1. The Program is a way in which we reward and thank our loyal customers for purchasing our products and for participating in certain brand experiences. You are able to earn points by making eligible purchases. You will receive 1 point for every 1 Singapore Dollar (SGD $1) spent on qualifying purchases in the Store or on Lazada Site and in addition to these purchases, we may offer more ways to earn and/or accelerate your points from time to time. Once you earn a certain number of points, you may be eligible for certain benefits and rewards applicable to that number of points, which benefits may change from time to time and may be offered on a limited basis. Eligible purchases and other opportunities to earn points may be notified to Members via a method of communication chosen at our sole discretion or published through other media (e.g., in marketing communications, social media, etc.). Visit our FAQs to learn more about earning points.

3.2. Other than points earning, the Program is also a Tier-based program determined by the amount a Member has spent on qualifying purchases. There are 3 Tiers with associated benefits:

Tier

Qualifying threshold

Marine

Any qualifying purchase

AquaMarine

Accumulative spending of between SGD$3000 and SGD$6999

UltraMarine

Accumulative spending SGD$7000 and above

When you first join with any purchase, you’ll automatically be placed in the first level of Tiers, Marine and be eligible for all the benefits Marine members receive. Your status in a particular Tier is valid for 12 months from the day in which you join or qualify to upgrade for that Tier (“Membership Cycle”).

Upgrading of Tiers: Within any Membership Cycle, accumulating spending equivalent of the next higher qualifying threshold will automatically upgrade you to the next higher level of Tiers.

Maintenance of Tiers: Conversely, in order to maintain your Tier status, you will need to accumulate sufficient spending to meet the qualifying threshold within the duration of your Membership Cycle.

Downgrading of Tiers: Failure to maintain Tier status will result in a downgrading of your Tier to a lower Tier which you qualify for based on your last 12 months spend

3.3. Members receive 1 point for every 1 Singapore Dollar (SGD $1) spent on eligible purchases in Store or on Lazada Site. Eligible purchases include regular priced merchandise and exclude eGift Cards, discounts, shipping and delivery charges, and/or other excluded charges specified by us from time-to-time. All points earned from purchases on the Lazada Site are pending until your order is delivered to you. For your purchase to qualify for the Program, you must be enrolled in the Program on the date of purchase and be signed into or have linked your account at the time of purchase. However, if your membership in the Program is terminated for any reason and you enroll in a new Program account, any purchases made prior to the date you enroll in a new Program account do not qualify for points.

3.4. In order to start earning points on Lazada Site, existing Members who did not enroll through the Lazada Site will need to link your membership on the Lazada Site. Only upon successful linking you will be eligible to start earning points by making qualifying purchases on Lazada Site. After linking, Members can also review their points status on Lazada Site. Please be noted that linking of membership is subject to your agreement and acceptance of Lazada’s “Membership Integration Program General Program Terms and Conditions” and Lazada’s “Privacy Policy”. For linked Members who wish to disconnect your Program membership from the Lazada Site, you may do so by following the prompts to disconnect on the Lazada Site. Disconnecting your Program membership will not cancel your Program membership. Member-initiated cancellation of Program membership can be achieved in accordance with Section 6.4.

3.5. Purchases made in airport stores, third party retailer stores/websites and retail stores outside of Singapore are not eligible purchases for the purpose of this Program.


4. Product Rewards and Benefits
