    1. LYBC Card. Upon activation of your LYBC Program membership in-store, you will be issued a Love Your Body™ Club Card (the “Card”) which may be used to accumulate Points with Qualifying Purchases (as defined below), and which may be used with your first purchase.

The Card is the property of The Body Shop and must be surrendered upon request. Lost or stolen Cards will not be replaced. The Card is non-transferrable, non-assignable, and may not be shared. The Card is a rewards card and has no cash value. Void where prohibited.
    2. Qualifying Purchases and Points. Qualifying Purchases include the purchase of any product or service currently offered by The Body Shop either online or in-store, but do not include past purchases, or the purchase of gift cards, charitable items, or the LYB Membership. Members receive one Point for each $1 spent on a Qualifying Purchase. Purchases made with promotional birthday discounts, earned discounts from the Love Your Body™ Program or LYBC Points may not be counted towards accumulating Points. The maximum amount of points that can be earned in any one single day is 500. You can redeem a maximum of 5 discount rewards per transaction. Points and discounts are non-transferrable, have no cash value and are promotional in nature. Unused Points and discount rewards shall expire 24 months from the last date of customer activity under the Program or such later date as may be required by applicable law. For the purposes of the Program, "customer activity" means any of (i) the customer accumulating additional Points, (ii) the customer earning a discount reward, or (iii) the customer applying a discount reward to a purchase, or (iv) the customer donating the value of a discount reward to one of the LYB nominated charity partners.
    3. Points Redemption. For every 100 Points you accumulate on your Program account, you will earn a one-time discount reward of up to $10 on your next purchase of a Qualifying Product online or at a participating location of The Body Shop. The $10 discount reward cannot be used with the Dream Big This Christmas Beauty Advent Calendar, Dream Big This Christmas Deluxe Advent Calendar, Dream Big This Christmas Ultimate Advent Calendar, or the Holiday Tote 2019. If the amount of the Member’s purchase exceeds the maximum discount provided for earned points, the Member must pay the difference (including tax). Unused discount rewards shall expire 24 months from the last date of customer activity under the Program or such later date as may be required by applicable law.
    4. Birthday Reward. As a member of the LYBC Program, and provided that you made a purchase or placed an order online using your LYBC account in the 12 months prior to your birth date, The Body Shop will send you a promotion on your birthday (“Birthday Reward”), which may be in the form of a discount (“Birthday Discount”) or product, according to The Body Shop’s sole discretion. All Birthday Rewards must be redeemed within the stated time frame. If the Birthday Reward is in the form of a Birthday Discount on Qualifying Purchases, you will be responsible for paying the difference (including tax) if you choose to apply the Birthday Discount to a product that exceeds the stated promotional value. Any unused value of a Birthday Discount will not be refunded if the selected product’s retail price is less than the stated promotional value of the Birthday Discount. At the time of the Birthday Discount redemption, the contents of your cart must exceed the Birthday Discount amount before it can be applied. Once the amount of the cart exceeds the Birthday Discount amount, the Birthday Discount will be applied towards your total order value.
    5. Charity Partner Reward Donations. Upon receipt of your $10 discount reward, you may choose to donate the value of your discount reward to one of the LYBC nominated charity partners. The Body Shop will calculate the value of all donations made by members and transfer the value of such donations to the charity partner. The nominated charity partners receiving the individual donations will issue receipts evidencing your donation directly to you. You hereby consent to The Body Shop providing your contact information to such charity partner organization for purposes of facilitating the issuance of the donation receipts. Donations made to a charity partner through such charity’s nominated third party service provider will be reduced by the fees charged by such service provider.
