2. Binding Effect

Subject to Al Tayer Group accepting you into Amber, by signing in writing, or electronically accepting these Terms, by applying to join and/or joining the programme you agree that you have read and understood and agree to be bound by these Terms, including any Terms posted on the Website as the same may be varied by Al Tayer Group from time to time. Updated Terms supersede any terms agreed to by you and Al Tayer Group. It is your responsibility to remain aware of any such updates. We will publish the latest Terms on our Website.

 

3. Membership

  1. These Terms are void if entered into by an individual younger than eighteen (18) years of age.  
  2. This programme is available to individuals for their personal use only and is limited to one account per individual. The programme must not be used for any business or commercial purposes and we may refuse to create an account for any reason.
  3. Officers and employees of Al Tayer Group (an 'Employee') are eligible to join Amber. However Employees may not accrue Points on transactions on which the Inner Circle discount is applied. Direct family members of Employees may become members, but neither they nor Employees are eligible to enter contests or win prizes.
  4. Al Tayer Group reserves the right to make the final decision to enter you into the Amber programme and reserves the right to terminate your membership and/or revoke your Points at any time. Al Tayer Group will not charge you for membership but enrolment for membership may be subject to minimum purchase requirements specified by us, from time to time.
  5. Al Tayer Group may, in its sole and absolute discretion, grant a Family membership. The rules relating to Family membership will be communicated to you upon entry into such membership.
  6. Al Tayer Group will issue you with an Amber membership number and/or Amber membership card in physical or digital form (the 'Card'). The Card will remain our property and membership may be withdrawn or cancelled by Al Tayer Group, for any reason. You are responsible for the security of your Card.
  7. It is a condition of the Programme that you provide Al Tayer Group with a valid email address for redemption of Points.
  8. Membership will automatically terminate in the event that Al Tayer Group determines that a member has acted fraudulently or has misused the Card or membership or in the event of a member’s death or bankruptcy ("Automatic Termination"). Please note that in the event of Automatic Termination, all accrued points will be lost.
  9. If you do not earn or redeem Points within a 24 month period, your membership will be deactivated. Deactivation means Amber programme benefits may be withdrawn and you may not receive Amber programme communications. To avoid deactivation, please ensure that you transact at least once within the 24 month period. Your account will be re-activated as soon as you make your next transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, deactivation is in addition to any Points loss which may arise due to non-redemption as further described in Condition 6 below and such Points will not be reinstated upon reactivation.
  10. You may cancel your membership at any time by emailing assist@myamber.com. Al Tayer Group reserves the right to request appropriate identification from you in support of such membership cancellation prior to processing. To assist us in improving our programme, we would be grateful if you could provide the reason for cancelling your membership. Once cancelled, all benefits will immediately cease. Al Tayer Group will not be liable to you in any way for Points loss due to cancellation through Automatic Termination or otherwise.
  11. Membership is for the member named on the Application only. Benefits and accrued Points are non-transferable unless agreed by us in writing.
  12.  

4. Tier Membership

  1. Amber membership is divided into tiers based on Points earned by a Member in the preceding 12 month period (a "Tier"). The default entry Tier to the programme is Classic.
  2. A member's Tier will automatically be upgraded at the time the Member meets a higher Tier’s qualifying Points threshold. From 2 April 2019 or for Members joining after 2 April 2019 from their date of upgrade, Members will also be automatically downgraded if in subsequent 12 months the Member fails to meet the Points threshold for that Tier.
  3. Tier upgrades and maintenance are dependent on a Member earning sufficient Points to qualify to stay in their existing Tier or move to a higher Tier.
  4. Tier benefits and the thresholds required for qualifying for Tier upgrades are displayed on the Website and are subject to change from time to time in Al Tayer Group’s sole discretion. Tier upgrade will be automatic once the Points threshold applicable to another Tier has been reached.
  5. Certain benefits are based on the Tier level achieved by you.
  6.  

5. Breach of Terms and Conditions

Al Tayer Group reserves the right to cancel your membership of Amber, use of the Mobile App and Website and/or withdraw any Points earned if you breach any of these Terms, fail to pay for any purchase or provide false or misleading information on the Application.

 

6. Points

  1. Al Tayer Group and our Earning Partners and Redemption Partners will determine from time to time which goods or services purchased by you will earn Points including the number of Points awarded. Al Tayer Group may from time to time at its sole discretion amend or impose additional conditions to redemption, such as varying minimum redemption thresholds. You may only earn Points when making purchases from Earning Partners and only redeem Points with Redemption Partners, or as otherwise permitted by us from time to time in writing. Redemption conditions, Earning Partners and Redemption Partners will be available on the Website and/or on Amber programme documentation.
  2. Unless specifically stated, no Points will be earned during a sale or promotion, on discretionary discounts, on gift card redemptions, on returned items for which a cash (or a gift card) refund is given or when a special offer is in effect. Points will not be awarded on the portion of a transaction which you fund through Points redemption.
  3. To collect Points, you must show your Card or quote your membership number at the time of purchase. Points are awarded only for qualifying goods or services actually supplied and paid for.
  4. Your Amber programme Points statement will be made available to you on a monthly basis. Missing Points, supported by appropriate proof of purchase and identity, can be claimed by contacting Amber Assist on +971 442 23200 (UAE, BAH, KSA, KWT, QTR) or through an Amber desk up to 90 days after the transaction to which they relate. Al Tayer Group reserves the right to correct your Points record as we consider appropriate at any time. Al Tayer Group's decision is final and binding.
  5. Unless redeemed, Points will expire on the earlier of: (i) twenty-four (24) months from the date on which they were earned provided that such expiry will only be effected on the immediately following membership anniversary day; or (ii) termination of your Amber membership.
  6. Al Tayer Group may, at its discretion, from time to time, provide you with the opportunity to accrue Campaign Points on selected purchases (excluding gift cards, as set out in Condition 6(g)), made on specific dates subject to the relevant terms and conditions relating to such  Campaign Points which shall be set out on the Website, the Mobile App and any applicable communications with you in respect of such Campaign Points, which may be amended by Al Tayer Group from time to time.
  7. Gift card purchases shall accrue Points on a standard basis and shall not, under any circumstances, accrue Campaign Points.
  8. The number of Points awarded to or earned by you shall be based on the VAT exclusive price of Products (by way of example, and for illustration purposes only, if a Product’s VAT exclusive purchase price is 50AED, with 2.5AED VAT, you will be awarded/earn 50 Points in respect of that Product).
  9. Campaign Points will be awarded pursuant to the Member’s Tier. Such Campaign Points can be accrued and/or redeemed within the Campaign Period and are rewarded on a minimum spend of AED 2500 on a single transaction, valid for a maximum of 3 transactions during the relevant Campaign Period.

  3. Al Tayer Group will not be liable for any goods, services, offers and/or discounts purchased and/or accessed with the Card, Mobile App or through your membership number.

We, and our Redemption Partners, reserve the right to: (i) require suitable identification before allowing any redemption of Points; and (ii) decline a Points redemption request for legitimate reasons, including but not limited to, expired points or non-qualifying redemption items.
  5.
