Please read these ToU carefully before using the Application. If you do not agree to the terms contained in these ToU, then you may not use the Application. You acknowledge and confirm that you have the legal authority to bind yourself or any party you represent to, and that you accept these ToU.

From time to time we may update the Application and these ToU. Any such changes shall not affect your rights already acquired under these ToU.

You agree to review these ToU periodically to ensure that you are familiar with the most recent version. Mastercard may discontinue the Application or any part thereof or may prevent your use of the Application. You agree that you do not have any rights in the Application and Mastercard will have no liability to you if the Application is discontinued or your ability to access the Application is terminated.
We may discontinue the Application under the following conditions:
YOU MAY NOT USE THE APPLICATION FOR ANY PURPOSE THAT IS UNLAWFUL OR PROHIBITED BY THESE TOU. YOUR ACCESS TO THE APPLICATION MAY BE TERMINATED IMMEDIATELY, IF YOU FAIL TO COMPLY WITH ANY PROVISIONS OF THESE TOU. Upon the termination of THESE TOU, you shall cease all use of the Application.
Using Mastercard Pay with Rewards™. Mastercard Pay with Rewards™ is a redemption functionality offered to you by Mastercard. Pay with Rewards™ can be used to redeem Rewards for any Eligible Purchase, “Rewards” meaning qualifying points, miles, stars and other qualifying reward/loyalty currency which you have on your loyalty account.
Pay with Rewards™ can be used for any transaction anywhere Mastercard is accepted (each, Mastercard-accepting location, an “Authorized Merchant”), including with respect to e-commerce, in person payments and recurring payments subject to local legal and regulatory requirements. However, “Authorized Merchants” do not include hotels, car and truck rental agencies, gas stations, cruise ships and other merchants or transactions requiring pre-authorization, as Mastercard may designate from time to time, without further notice to you. Also, a merchant is not an “Authorized Merchant” for a transaction if the transaction is not processed by the Mastercard payment network.
The Application allows you to enable/disable the use of Pay with Rewards™ for purchase transactions for which you would like to be reimbursed through the Pay with Rewards™. You may use the Application to select either to utilize Pay with Rewards™ to be reimbursed for a single transaction, or leave Pay with Rewards™ turned on to receive reimbursement until your loyalty balance has been depleted. If you select to be reimbursed for a purchase with Pay with Rewards™, and you do not have enough Rewards on your loyalty balance to cover the cost of the purchase, you may be able to use Rewards to be partially reimbursed for your purchase (a “Partial Reimbursement”), if Mastercard as the loyalty program organizer, the financial institution that issues your Mastercard card, or any other party that operates the loyalty program (the “Loyalty Program Organizer”) has enabled the Application’s Partial Reimbursement option. If the Partial Reimbursement option is not enabled, and your Rewards balance does not equal or exceed the price of your purchase, you will not be able to use Rewards to reimburse any portion of your purchase. For more information on Partial Reimbursements, please refer to the rules or guidelines made available by your Loyalty Program Organizer respecting Pay with Rewards™. You must enable the Pay with Rewards™ Application BEFORE making a purchase for which you want reimbursement. Except as described further below, if you have not enabled Pay with Rewards™ when you make a qualifying purchase, you will not be reimbursed through Pay with Rewards™ for such transaction.
How Mastercard Pay with Rewards™ Works. Under Pay with Rewards™, as the applicable amount of money is being debited from your Card for your purchase (“Eligible Purchase”), the number of Rewards necessary for a purchase reimbursement (or Partial Reimbursement, as applicable) will be automatically deducted from your Rewards balance, and a statement credit in such amount will be reflected on your next Card account statement. We cannot guarantee that the charge for the Eligible Purchase and the statement credit will appear on the same Card statement. For more information on your account statement billing cycles, please contact your Loyalty Program Organizer. Minimum monthly payments, any interest due to your Loyalty Program Organizer in connection with your use of your Mastercard car, and insurance fees, annuity fees, or any other fees may not be eligible to be reimbursed via Pay with Rewards™. Please check with your Loyalty Program Organizer for specific eligibility requirements on this type of usage. If a chargeback or return of a purchase for which you were reimbursed using Pay with Rewards™ occurs, the purchase value will be returned to you by the Loyalty Program Organizer in lieu of the Rewards.
Viewing Reward Balances and Purchases. The Application also allows you to view your current Rewards balance, and receive notifications delineating the Eligible Purchases towards which your Rewards have been credited. You will need to opt-in for such notifications.
Viewing Recent Payment Transaction History and Redeeming Past Eligible Purchases
Your Loyalty Program Organizer may enable you to view your previous payment transaction activity associated with your payment card(s) linked in the Application and be notified of recent purchase activity (both Eligible Purchases and non-Eligible Purchases), as well as the Eligible Purchases where Rewards were redeemed at Authorized Merchants. This can be done via push notifications through the Application and/or email, so long as you have voluntarily opted in to receive such notifications through the Settings in the Application or as part of your Loyalty Program Organizer’s loyalty program. In such cases, your Loyalty Program Organizer may also enable you to choose to redeem past Eligible Purchases for Rewards in the Application for a certain period of time post-transaction.
In order for you to download, register for or use the Application, you may be required to accept further terms and conditions of your Loyalty Program Organizer and/or terms and conditions of another party in whose loyalty program you take part.

We also may disclose data about you: (i) if we are required to do so by law or legal process, or (ii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss, or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual fraudulent or illegal activity.
We also reserve the right to transfer personal data we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use personal information you have provided to us in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Notice.
