Welcome to Vetcove’s Referral Program (the “Program”). The Program makes it easy for you to share Vetcove with your friends and colleagues while earning rewards at the same time. For every friend or colleague that you refer to join the Vetcove purchasing community, you will be eligible for a paw-some reward! In addition, your friends or colleagues will also get some extra sweet treats. By participating in the Program, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by these terms (“Terms”).

Thank you for your participation and we hope you have a purr-fect experience!

  1. Terms

These Terms apply to participation in the Program by Vetcove users (“Users” or “you”). By participating in the Program, you agree to use the Program as set forth herein, and consistent with any other terms that Vetcove (“Vetcove,” or “we”) may apply to govern the Program. If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you may not register or participate in the Program. Users also may not participate in the Program where doing so would be prohibited by any applicable laws or regulations.

Vetcove reserves the right to modify or amend at any time the Terms, and by way of example only, the methods through which rewards are earned, the Program duration, the value of Referral Rewards (defined below) and/or the eligibility criteria. We also reserve the right to disqualify or suspend any Referrers or Referred Customers (each as defined below) from participation in the Program at any time in our sole discretion. In addition, we reserve the right to terminate or suspend the Program at any time.

This Program shall be deemed void where such referral programs are prohibited. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between User and Vetcove concerning User’s participation in the Program.

  1. Eligibility

Users who refer others to Vetcove are “Referrers”; those who are referred are “Referred Customers.” Referrers must be legally able to participate in the Program and must be: (1) at least the age of majority where they reside, and in no event younger than eighteen (18) years of age; (2) have an existing, valid Vetcove user account; and (3) are otherwise in good standing. Please note that certain veterinary corporate groups and related animal health entities are not eligible to participate in the Program. When registering for the Program, Referrers must use the same email address that is registered with their existing Vetcove user account. In administering the Program, Vetcove reserves the right to determine if a Referrer’s user account is valid based on criteria that include, but are not limited to, a user’s account activity and corporate group membership. Employees of Vetcove, their immediate family members, and anyone else professionally connected to the Program are not eligible to participate.

If you have any questions regarding the eligibility criteria or your ability to participate, please email: _________________.

  1. How the Program Works

To participate, navigate to your referrals page (www.vetcove.com/invite) (the “Referrals Page”), review the Program Rules, and follow the on-screen instructions to start referring. You will be provided with a unique code (“User Code”) which you can share with your friends and colleagues during the program period (the “Eligibility Period”). If a Referred Customer (a) uses your User Code in signing up; (b) connects their new Vetcove account to at least one (1) vendor; and (c) places at least one (1) direct checkout with a connected vendor during the Eligibility Period, your referral will be considered a “Completed Referral.” For each such Completed Referral, you as the Referrer will be eligible to receive twenty-five dollars ($25) in cash back (the “Referral Reward”), and the Referred Customer will also be eligible to receive twenty-five ($25) in cash back. All Referral Reward(s) will appear automatically in your Vetcove account’s cash back balance once issued. You can keep track of all your Completed Referrals on the Referrals Page. Your User Code will be accessible and valid for the duration of the Program and may be redeemed up to twenty (20) times during the Eligibility Period.

  1. Special Promotions

From time to time during the Eligibility Period, Users may be offered special promotions (“Special Promotions”), which may consist of, but shall not be limited to, additional cash back for Completed Referrals. These Special Promotions may be offered to some, but not all Users, depending upon historical Vetcove usage, Completed Referrals, or for other reasons. Such Special Promotions may be offered for a limited time and will give Referrers (and in some cases, Referred Customers) additional perks and rewards. Any additional terms, including expiration dates for any Special Promotion, will be provided with the notice accompanying any Special Promotion. Referrers participating in any Special Promotions will only be eligible to receive the rewards as outlined in the Special Promotion for successful referrals executed prior to the end date of the Special Promotion period. At the close of any Special Promotion or this Program, Vetcove may make available additional rewards for Users, depending on certain Program or Special Promotion criteria.

  1. Conditions for Receiving Referral Reward(s)

Referral Reward(s) will be awarded for referrals that meet the following conditions:

  1. The Referred Customer must use the User Code from a Referrer in good standing with Vetcove.

  2. The Referred Customer must be eligible to create a Vetcove account and otherwise be qualified to sign up and enroll in Vetcove’s services.

  3. The Referred Customer must not be registered with Vetcove and must not have previously registered with Vetcove under any email address or alias during the immediately preceding twelve (12) months.

  4. The Referred Customer must: (i) utilize your User Code in registering with Vetcove; (ii) connect their Vetcove account to at least one (1) vendor; and (iii) place at least one (1) direct checkout with a connected vendor.

  5. If a Referred Customer receives more than one User Code, Vetcove will provide the Referral Reward to the person or entity whose User Code is used to complete the registration process.

All Completed Referrals are subject to verification by Vetcove and Referral Reward(s) for such Completed Referrals will generally be awarded within ten (10) days of verification. Referral Rewards may be redeemed for gift cards or a check, consistent with Vetcove’s Cash Back Program (details available here). Vetcove may withhold a Referral Reward or any related reward if it reasonably believes additional verification is required. Vetcove may also withhold or invalidate any referral, Referral Reward or other reward it deems fraudulent, suspect, or in violation of these Terms; Vetcove may also withhold any reward or Referral Reward if Vetcove in its sole discretion believes awarding a credit or verifying and approving a transaction will impose liability on Vetcove, its subsidiaries, affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents.

  1. Code of Conduct

  • Violate or attempt to violate the intellectual property rights of Vetcove;

Vetcove reserves the right to disqualify anyone, cancel Referral Rewards, disable or suspend an account, and contact legal authorities (including law enforcement), if it should discover that a user is tampering with the entry or referral process, or the operation of the Program or violating these Terms or any other terms between Vetcove and users.

User agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Vetcove and its representatives and agents harmless from and against any and all third-party claims, demands, liabilities, costs, or expenses, including attorney’s fees and costs, arising from, or related to any breach by the participant of any of these Terms or other terms or agreements between Vetcove and User, or any violation by User of applicable law.
