TREAT AS CASH.
This Cardholder Agreement (“Agreement”) is the agreement between you, the person receiving this card (the “Cardholder”) and us, OperatorName. (“Operator”.) It sets forth the terms and conditions governing the issuance and your use of the card (“Card”) and participation in related programs (“Program”.)
PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY AND KEEP IT FOR YOUR RECORDS.
The Card allows you to load funds onto the Card through loading from a credit card or other funding source. Once your Card is loaded, you can make purchases at locations that accept the Card, as long as the available balance on your Card equals or exceeds the amount of your withdrawals plus applicable fees.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Activation. Your Card will be activated upon your online registration and may be used once funds are loaded. By loading funds or by initiating transactions with the Card, you are pre-paying for future purchases and appoint operator as your agent to obtain the funds and to transfer your funds as you direct through use of the Card.
By activating your Card, you represent that you are of legal age to contract in your state, that the information you provide is true, that you accept the Card, that you have read and understand this Agreement and that you agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions. You agree that you will not use Program services in such a way or for any purpose that will violate any law (including gambling), regulation, court order or other legal requirement, whether criminal or civil, and whether of the United States, any state of the United States or of any foreign country.
This Program is offered to the user conditioned on acceptance by the user ("User") without modification of the terms, conditions, and notices contained herein. By accessing and using this Web site, the User is deemed to have agreed to all such terms, conditions, and notices. Operator and all Program partners reserve the right to change any aspect of the Loyalty program at any time with 30 days notice to active members. Operator is not responsible for unilateral actions taken by Loyalty program partners. Operator reserves the right to discontinue the Loyalty program with 90 days notice to members. This means your right to accumulate points and claim rewards will be terminated 90 days after we give you notice. Your password is unique to your account and is designed to protect your account from unauthorized use. Operator is not responsible for any lost, stolen or otherwise disclosed passwords, nor shall it re-credit any points withdrawn or transferred from your account if anyone seeking redemption provides your password. Accordingly, your password should be guarded and not provided to anyone.

Revocation, Expiration and Surrender of the Card. Each Card is our property and expires six years from date of activation. We may revoke your Card at any time without cause or prior notice. If we revoke your Card, you must cease using it and surrender or destroy it immediately upon learning that it is revoked. Any cash balance above $2.00 will be available for refund on revocation or surrender of the card or closure of the account.
Event of Loss or Theft of your Card. If this Card is lost or stolen, it cannot be replaced; therefore, treat it just like cash.
Loading Funds. You can load the Card with a credit card or bank account through the website. Any funds that you transfer into your Cardholder Account will not be considered received for any purposes whatsoever unless and until they are actually received by Operator and credited to your Cardholder Account’s cash balance. You acknowledge and understand that the funds may be used by you for any of the services that may be available from time to time. You further agree and acknowledge that no interest will be paid on funds in your Cardholder Account. Promotional funds may be made available on your account through redemption, rewards or other promotions at the sole discretion of the Operator. All promotional balances may only be used for product purchases from the Operator or designated merchants and cannot be converted to a cash balance at any time.
Purchases at Merchants. You may use your Card to pay for purchases at vending machines, kiosks and foodservice locations that accept the Card, provided you have a balance in your Cardholder Account higher than any minimum amount required by the transaction. When you purchase anything using your Card, the available amount in your Cardholder Account will be reduced by the amount of the purchase. In the event that the available spending amount on the Card is less than the amount of the purchase, the transaction will be denied. Operator is not responsible for the delivery, quality, safety, legality, or any other aspect of goods and services purchased with the Card. All disputes involving the same should be addressed to the establishment where such goods and services were purchased.
Suspicious or Possibly Unauthorized Activity. We may restrict access to your Cardholder Account if we believe that suspicious or possibly unauthorized activity may be taking place with your Card. We are not responsible for policing your Cardholder Account to determine when there is unauthorized activity. You agree to take all necessary steps to protect your card. If you permit someone else to handle or use your Card we will treat such action as your authorization of that person to use your Card and you will be responsible for all transactions by that person using your Card.
Balance Information. You can review the balance of funds loaded on your Card at any time free of charge on our web site. It is your responsibility to review the transaction history at least once every 30 days, and to report any discrepancies or unauthorized transactions IMMEDIATELY to us.
Limitations, Fees, and Charges. See Appendix A.
Liability of Operator. If a Program service is not provided in accordance with this Agreement, we will be liable for the loss of your money up to the amount that is actually lost, but only if that loss results solely from our nonperformance or that of our affiliates, service providers, employees, agents or contractors, subject to the following limitations:

Termination. Each of us has the right to terminate this Agreement. You can terminate this Agreement upon giving us notice. We can also terminate this Agreement without advance notice, especially if we terminate due to your default or other nonperformance under this Agreement, as a security precaution, if we decide to terminate the Program or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Otherwise, depending on the circumstances, we will attempt to give you reasonable notice of our decision to terminate this Agreement, but that may not be possible in all cases and we cannot guarantee you that we will give you notice. Regardless of how this Agreement is terminated, when it is terminated you must surrender your Card as soon as possible.
