3. Advantages of the my blend loyalty program
3.1. ACCUMULATION OF POINTS

Membership in the “my +” Loyalty Program allows the Member to accumulate points when purchasing MY BLEND Products, care services or using a MY BLEND gift card made at the physical point of sale or on the website mentioned in Article 1 of these General Terms of Use. Points are automatically credited during one of these actions without the Member having to complete any other formalities.

The method applicable to the calculation of points is as follows:

€1 spent when purchasing a Product, MY BLEND care service at eligible points of sale as mentioned in Article 1 of these general terms and conditions of use, use of a MY BLEND gift card, or any other type of purchase giving access to points (such as the purchase of a gift box) = 1 “my +” point earned.

Points are valid for 1 year from January 1st of each calendar year until December 31st of the same year.

At each change of calendar year, on January 1st, the points counters are reset to zero, except for the exceptions mentioned below. Unused points cannot be recovered. They are automatically transferred by MY BLEND to the Association "La Maison des Femmes" as presented on the presentation page of the "my+" program on the website www.my-blend.com.

The Member will be notified by two email communications prior to the expiration of his points at least 2 months before this. A final email communication will notify him of the effective reset of his points balance and the amount converted into points donations if points remain.

The Member can check his/her points balance at any time by logging into his/her personal account on the website www.my-blend.com in the My Account section, it being specified that the online counters are updated in real time. The Member also has the option of dematerializing his/her loyalty card in his/her mobile “Wallet” on iOS or Android. To do this, the Member must go to the My Account / My Loyalty Card section and scan the QR Code presented.

In the event of a dispute over the number of points accumulated, only the information contained in the MY BLEND database will be valid.

3.2. PERMANENT BENEFITS OF THE PROGRAM

The “my +” loyalty program provides all of its Members with several advantages from the moment they join the program:

  • Upon joining the "my +" loyalty program, the Member will receive a welcome gift offered by MY BLEND. The gift is a kit including, subject to available stocks: a Vanity and 2 Oshiboris (towels). This gift will be added to the first order placed by the Member and sent to the address provided by the latter during their first purchase. Shipping costs will be covered by MY BLEND. This welcome gift will be delivered as soon as possible by MY BLEND. MY BLEND reserves the right to modify the nature of the welcome gift at any time.
  • For his birthday, the Member will benefit from a promotional offer. This offer will take the form of a 15% discount voucher valid on the next order or purchase made by the Member for 30 days from his birthday, without any minimum purchase price condition. The Member will be informed of the offer by sending emails to the email address provided in his My Account / Personal Information space. The discount voucher must be used at the physical point of sale and/or on the website mentioned in Article 1 of these general terms and conditions of use. This offer is conditional on the Member communicating his birthday on the website www.my-blend.com in the My Account / Personal Information section.

The nature and recurrence of communications will be at the discretion of MY BLEND. However, in accordance with Article 7 of these general terms of use, the Member, while maintaining his or her Member status, may request to stop receiving any communications from MY BLEND.

3.3. REWARDS LEVELS AND USE OF ACCUMULATED POINTS

The “my +” Loyalty Program distinguishes several levels according to the number of points accumulated by the Member following their purchases of MY BLEND Products or care services or use of a MY BLEND gift card in the physical point of sale “La Maison myBlend” or on the website mentioned in article 1 of these general conditions of use. When the Member reaches a level, they can choose:

  • To use his/her points to benefit from one or more MY BLEND products from the selection of products presented on his/her account in the [Convert my points] section. The points used for the purchase of the MY BLEND product(s) will then be deducted from his/her balance. The Member may only return a MY BLEND product purchased using the accumulation of points if it is altered or expired. In this case, the Member undertakes to report the alteration of the product to the following address serviceclient@my-blend.com within five (5) days of receipt of the product. If these conditions have been met, MY BLEND undertakes to return to the Member, at its own expense, the same unaltered product.
  • To donate your points to the association “La Maison des Femmes”. The points used will then be deducted from your balance. In this case, for every 10 points donated, MY BLEND will make a financial contribution worth €1 to the association.
  • To continue to accumulate points to reach the next level. These points have no monetary value, cannot be exchanged or refunded and can only be used within the framework of the “my +” Loyalty Program.

The levels are as follows:

  • Level 1: from 700 “my +” points accumulated, the Member can choose 1 free product from the selection of MYBLEND products in Basket 1 or donate their points to the association “La Maison des Femmes” for a value of €70.
  • Level 2: from 1000 “my +” points accumulated, the Member can choose 1 free product from the selection of MYBLEND products in Basket 2 and donate their points to the association “La Maison des Femmes” for a value of €100.
  • Level 3: from 1300 “my +” points accumulated, the Member can choose 1 free product from the selection of MYBLEND products in Basket 3 or donate their points to the association “La Maison des Femmes” for a value of €130.
  • Level 4: from 1600 “my +” points accumulated, the Member can choose 1 free product from the selection of MYBLEND products in Basket 4 or donate their points to the association “La Maison des Femmes” for a value of €160.

Each level allows the Member to benefit from a product offered in sale format from a selection of MY BLEND products or to donate points to the association “La Maison des Femmes”.

The selections of MY BLEND products and point donation coupons corresponding to each level can be viewed on the website www.my-blend.com on the page my + / Your Loyalty Program or from a personal account in the sections My Program / Convert my points.

MY BLEND reserves the right to modify the different reward selections at any time.

For each point donation made, MY BLEND undertakes to systematically donate 50% of the amount of the associated value to the association "La Maison des Femmes". For example, for each point donation corresponding to a value of €70, MY BLEND will donate an additional €35 to the association, making a total financial contribution of €105.

MYBLEND reserves the right to modify at any time the percentage of the additional amount that it donates to the association “La Maison des Femmes”.

All the points given by the Members will be transformed into a financial contribution paid annually by MY BLEND to the association “La Maison des Femmes”.

Furthermore, if all the donations of points made by Members do not allow an annual financial contribution of ten thousand euros (€10,000) to be reached, paid by MY BLEND to the association “La Maison des Femmes”, MY BLEND has undertaken to pay the association an additional financial contribution allowing this amount of €10,000 to be reached.

In the event that all the point donations make it possible to reach an annual financial contribution of a value equal to or greater than €10,000, MY BLEND will not make any additional financial contribution to the association.

3.4. PROMOTIONS AND COMMERCIAL OFFERS

The “my +” Loyalty Program also allows the Member to benefit from specific advantages and commercial offers such as invitations to private sales or events.

MY BLEND reserves the right to target the sending of its commercial offers to some of its Members.

Finally, they can also decide to continue to accumulate points to access the following levels.

Rewards are shipped to the shipping address provided by the Member when sending the gift. The shipping costs of the rewards are the responsibility of the Member unless the Member decides to receive his gift at the same time as an order of Products and the minimum amount to benefit from free shipping is reached. The shipping costs and delivery times of the rewards vary depending on the shipping country and the chosen delivery method.

When the Member decides to donate his points, a confirmation email is sent to him to indicate that his donation of points has been taken into account. MY BLEND transmits annually to the association "La Maison des Femmes" all the financial contributions corresponding to the total value of the donations of points made by the Members during a year.

Once a rewards order is validated, it is no longer possible for the Member to modify the choice of gift or the delivery address entered.
