This section identifies the manner in which you may earn Lootzi Cash Back, when you will be paid, what rights you have as a User to the Lootzi Cash Back you have earned, and Lootzi's rights and responsibilities with respect to the Lootzi Cash Back program.
 
1. Program Overview.
 
The Lootzi Cash Back rebates program (the "Program") allows Lootzi.com Users to shop with Lootzi's participating merchants, and earn Lootzi Cash Back. The Program is free to Users, and is conferred as a benefit of registration with Lootzi. You are under no obligation to participate or redeem your Lootzi Cash Back.
 
As a User, Lootzi Cash Back is automatically earned when you make a qualifying online purchase from a merchant participating in the Program (a "Participating Merchant") on our Stores page. Some Participating Merchants may have special requirements to earn Lootzi Cash Back. Click the red asterisk next to their cash back offer for requirements and restrictions. Further, not all merchants listed on our Stores page participate in the Program. Participating Merchant's are identified by a corresponding offer ( % or $ ) to the left of their store name.
 
2. Eligibility.
 
The Program is offered for purchases made through links on the Lootzi.com website. You must have Internet access and a valid working e-mail address to receive the privileges of the Program. Further, participation in the Program is limited to individuals that are 18 years of age or older.
