Official Rules: Casper Referral Program

Effective Date of Current Policy: August 22, 2020

Casper Sleep Inc. ("Casper" or “We”) offers brand advocates (“Advocates” or “You”) the opportunity to participate in its referral program (the “Program”). We reserve the right to amend or terminate the Program at any time, for any reason. The Program is administered by Casper. 


Advocates are bound by these Terms and Conditions by participating in the Program. By participating in the Program, Advocates agree to use the Program in the manner specified in these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions in their entirety, you are not authorized to register as an Advocate or to participate in the Program in any other manner. Advocates may not participate in the Program where doing so would be prohibited by any applicable law or regulations. 

 

We reserve the right to modify or amend at any time these Terms and Conditions and/or the methods through which rewards are earned. We reserve the right to disqualify any Advocates from participation in the Program at any time at our sole discretion, including without limitation if he/she does not comply with any of these Terms and Conditions or otherwise fails to comply with any applicable laws (including, without limitation, through any failure to include any disclosures as required by the FTC or otherwise required by Casper). 

 

Children.

No part of the program is directed to persons under the age of 13. IF YOU ARE UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE, YOU MAY NOT USE, ACCESS OR PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM AT ANY TIME OR IN ANY MANNER.  

 

 I. How the Program Works 

 

A. Program Participation, Generally

  1. To participate in the Program, Advocates should visit casper.com/friends and follow the on-screen instructions to refer friends, family members or colleagues to the program by entering their names and email addresses in the relevant fields.
  2. Individuals who receive a referral via an Advocate are "Friends" (or, singly, a “Friend). An "Eligible" Advocate who is fully compliant with these Terms and Conditions may receive "Reward(s)" for every "Qualified Referral” (all terms in quotes to be understood as defined below).
  3. By participating in the Program, an Advocate represents that he or she has his or her Friend's prior consent to provide their email addresses.

 

B. Eligible Advocate

  1. To be "Eligible," an Advocate must:
  2. Be a legal resident of the United States of America or Canada; and
  3. Be at least 18 years old.

 

C. Making a Referral

  1. An Advocate must register at Casper.com/Friends to make a referral. No previous purchase is required (purchasers and non-purchasers alike are eligible). Once an Advocate refers a Friend, he/she will be provided with a unique referral link ("Personal Link") that allows the Advocate to receive credit for Qualified Referrals ("Credit"). Personal Links will be issued only to individuals.
  2. Advocates must respect the spirit of the Program by only referring real individuals who meet the requirements of these Terms and Conditions. Advocates cannot refer themselves. For example, an Advocate may not create multiple or fake accounts with Casper or participate in the Program using multiple or fake email addresses or identities.

 

D. Qualified Referrals

  1. A “Qualified Referral” means that all the following conditions are met:
  2. The Friend completed the purchase of (i) at least one Casper mattress (other than the Casper dog bed or Element pro Mattress) (a “Mattress Qualified Referral”) or alternatively (ii) at least one Casper pillow (a “Pillow Qualified Referral” and together with “Mattress Qualified Referral,” a “Qualified Referral”) in Friend’s first order, using the Advocate’s Personal Link. The purchase of a dog bed alone does not qualify as a “Qualified Referral.” A Casper Outlet purchase does not qualify as a "Qualified Referral." If a Friend purchases from or registers with Casper using any other link or method, the registration will not count as a Qualified Referral and the Advocate will not earn Credit.
  3. The Friend was not previously registered with Casper under any email address or alias; and
  4. The Friend is a) a legal resident of the United States of America or Canada and b) at least 18 years old;
  5. An Advocate may only earn one Mattress Qualified Referral or one Pillow Qualified Referral (but not both) for each Friend, up to a maximum of $599 in Rewards value per calendar, unless otherwise allowed by Casper. Any additional or subsequent purchases made by a Friend for any item will not be considered Qualified Referrals and thus not be entitled to the benefits of Qualified Referrals. No partial rewards will be given. A Casper Outlet purchase does not qualify as a "Qualified Referral."

 

E. Earning Rewards

  1. Advocate shall receive in his or her Casper account one (1) reward (each, a “Reward”) in the form and value determined by Casper for each verified Qualified Referral generated by Advocate. An Advocate may earn a maximum of $599 in Rewards value per calendar year for Qualified Referrals. Any additional or subsequent referrals made by an Advocate will not be considered Qualified Referrals and thus not be entitled to the Reward. No partial rewards will be given. A Casper Outlet purchase does not qualify as a "Qualified Referral."
  2. Rewards may be redeemed in various forms in the Casper's sole discretion, including, but not limited to in the form of an Amazon.com* gift card. Restrictions may apply. For example, if the Reward is in the form of a gift card, gift certificate or voucher, it may be subject to the issuer's terms and conditions.

 

F. Verified Qualified Referrals

  1. Rewards are subject to verification. Casper may delay a Reward for the purposes of investigation. Casper may also refuse to verify and process any transaction Casper deems, in its sole discretion, to be fraudulent, suspicious, in violation of these Terms and Conditions, or believes will impose potential liability on Casper, its subsidiaries, affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents. All of Casper's decisions are final and binding, including decisions as to whether a Qualified Referral, or Reward is verified.

 

G. Transfer and Value of Credit and Rewards

  1. Rewards have no monetary value and may not be redeemed for cash. Rewards are not transferable and may not be auctioned, traded, bartered or sold. Upon termination of the referral program or any portion thereof for any reason, or upon cancellation of a Referrer's Casper account for any reason, any unredeemed Rewards that have not yet been delivered to Referrer are forfeited.

 

 II. Privacy. 

 

Advocates may participate in the Program made available by Casper in order to refer their Friends to Casper as potential Casper customers. To do this, Advocates must necessarily submit personal information about themselves and their Friends, such as name and e-mail address information, so that Casper can send communications to the Friends on the Advocates’ behalf. The personal information will be collected, processed and used in accordance with Casper's Privacy Statement, which can be found at https://casper.com/privacy. Advocates understand that, in addition to the initial communications to Friends, Casper may also use the personal information to send to Friends additional follow-up communications on behalf of the Advocates in order to encourage or remind the Friends to complete a purchase. However, Casper will not contact Friends unless and until Casper receives explicit permission from the Advocate to do so. The personal information may also be used by Casper to contact Advocates with regards to their participation in the Program and to send to Advocates additional communications from Casper.
