These GoCoupons terms of service (the “Agreement” or the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you (“you,” “member” or “your”) and HOBBS Marketing Inc. (“GoCoupons,” “we”, “our” or “us”).
THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CONTAIN A MANDATORY ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION CLAUSE. PLEASE REFER TO SECTION 16 OF THESE TERMS. Section 16 is not applicable in Quebec.
GoCoupons may provide services including but not limited to the GoCoupons Cash Back Credits Program (the “Program”) (as more fully described below) and the Print-at-Home coupon service (“PAH”) (as more fully described in Section 5 below), via our websites (the “Site”) and mobile applications (collectively, the “Services”) to you subject to these Terms. Please read these Terms carefully before using the Services. By accessing or using the Services, you explicitly agree to comply with and be bound by the Terms and all terms, policies and guidelines incorporated by reference herein. If you do not agree to all provisions of these Terms, do not use the Services. The Services are for your own personal use only. You may not resell, lease or provide them in any other way to anyone else. You must be the age of majority in the jurisdiction of your residence to use our Services. You may not use the Services if you have been previously suspended, removed or deactivated from using the Services.
These Terms do not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with GoCoupons or its affiliates for products, services or otherwise unless expressly incorporated by reference into them. Also, these Terms are in addition to the end user license agreements for any website or mobile application we provide.
1. Amendments
The following applies to members who are residents of Canada:
GoCoupons reserves the right to change or modify (the “amendment”) any of the terms and conditions contained in these Terms, the Program, PAH, or any policy or guideline relating to the Services (including, without limitation, the Privacy Notice (as defined below)) at any time and in its sole discretion, as permitted by applicable law.
GoCoupons will send to you written notice at least 60 days (60 to 90 days in Québec) before the amendment comes into force.
If the amendment entails an increase in your obligations or a reduction in GoCoupons’s obligations, you may refuse the amendment and cancel your account without cost, penalty or cancellation indemnity by sending GoCoupons a notice to that effect no later than 30 days after the amendment comes into force. If you elect to so cancel your account with us, you may do so without further obligation and any value of accumulated as cash back credits (“Cash Back Credits”) (subject to the Minimum Distribution Amount (defined below) and deduction of any inactive account management charges described below) will be exchanged for a check, or via approved third party electronic payment method for the balance amount and will be sent or credited to you as described below.
The following applies to all members:
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you should from time to time review the Terms and any policies, guidelines and documents incorporated in them to understand the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Services. The Terms will always show the ‘last updated’ date at the top. If you do not agree to any amended Terms, you must immediately stop using the Services. If you have any questions about the Terms, please submit a support request.
2. Privacy Notice
Please refer to GoCoupons’s privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) for information on how GoCoupons collects, uses and discloses personally identifiable information from its members. By agreeing to these Terms or using the Services, you agree to our collection, use and disclosure of your personally identifiable information in accordance with the Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy can be found here: https://www.gocoupons.ca/page/privacy-policy
3. Cash Back Credits
General
When you upload a receipt to GoCoupons or when we match your receipt using retailer or other partner-provided transaction log data or receipt data via unique identifier, and we determine in our sole discretion that you have purchased a product with an associated GoCoupons Offer during the time the GoCoupons Offer is valid and in accordance with the Offer terms (each a “Claimed Offer”), you will accumulate the Cash Back Credits value described in the GoCoupons Offer (in our applications and on our websites, we refer to this as accumulating “Cash Back”).
When your Cash Back Credits balance reaches the Minimum Distribution Amount, you may request (a “Cashout Request”), as described in the next section “Payment,” that your Cash Back Credits balance be redeemed for an equal amount of money (a “Cash Back Reward”). You may elect to receive your Cash Back Reward either by check or via an approved third party electronic payment method such as Interac, in accordance with the payment terms described below, or you can leave your Cash Back Credits balance to continue accumulating. If you do not make a CashoutRequest, we are under no obligation to send you a Cash Back Reward as part of the Program. You are responsible for redeeming Cash Back Credits. There is no automatic redemption or periodic distribution of Cash Back Rewards. Cash Back Credits balances have no cash, monetary or other value prior to being accumulated in full (reaching the Minimum Distribution Amount) and redeemed pursuant to a valid Cashout Request made in accordance with these Terms. No interest is paid on Cash Back Credits balances. Members have no property rights or other legal interest in the Cash Back Credits for any purpose. All Cash Back Credits remain the sole property of GoCoupons until distributed per the terms of this Agreement. Your Cash Back Credits balance or any part of it is not transferable, cannot be divided as part of a settlement, legal proceeding or death, and cannot be combined with Cash Back Credits of any other member in the Program.
Your Cash Back Credits balance reflects the value of Cash Back Credits for Claimed Offers within Canada only.
Cash Back Credits that have expired (see below) are no longer redeemable.
4. Payment
When you make a Cashout Request, you must select within the Site to receive your Cash Back Reward either via a check or via an approved third party electronic payment method, such as Interact. Your use of a third party electronic payment method is subject to the terms and conditions of such third party electronic payment provider, as the same may be modified by such third party from time to time. If you elect to receive a check, we send your Cash Back Reward in the format of a physical check, which is sent via regular mail from one of our offices or through a payment intermediary. Checks can be mailed only to the country associated with GoCoupons Offers that you have satisfied. From time to time we may change payment methods. We mail your checks to the address in your Registration Data (as defined below). If you elect to receive your Cash Back Reward via Interac, you authorize us to instruct Interac to deposit the amount of your Cash Back Reward into your bank account.
Once a Cashout Request is approved and payment is authorized by us, your Cash Back Credits balance will be reduced by the amount of authorized payment. If you return any Products for which you accumulated Cash Back Credits, you must notify us and we reserve the right to deduct from your Cash Back Credits the value of the Offer related to such returned Products and/or terminate your account. Photos or scans taken through the app must be of the original receipt issued by a retailer, which cannot have been altered in any way and must be the receipt from a purchase that you paid for personally. For online orders, you must upload a photo of an itemized packing slip to verify that you have completed the purchase and received the items purchased. We have no responsibility and assume no liability for any loss or delay of any Cash Back Reward once we either mail a check to you, or instruct Interac or another approved third party electronic payment provider to deposit the amount of your Cash Back Reward in your account. We assume no liability and you are solely responsible for your account, or any other approved third party electronic payment provider. We will not send checks to P.O. boxes, and we are not responsible for lost or stolen checks.
If we cease providing the Program, we will notify you at the email address you provide in your Registration Data and we shall provide you with 30 days to make a Cashout Request (and, for members who are non-residents of Canada, subject to our Minimum Distribution Amount of Cash Back Credits balance requirement described above). If you do not make a Cashout Request within such 30 day period, your entire Cash Back Credits balance expires. If you ever cancel your account, it will be your responsibility to make a Cashout Request (subject to our Minimum Distribution Amount of Cash Back Credits balance requirement described above) before cancelling. If you do not make a Cashout Request before canceling your account, any Cash Back Credits balance in your account expires upon such cancellation.
If we determine that you have violated the Terms, we may in our sole discretion and as permitted by law, terminate your account and any pending, current, or future Cash Back Credits balance you may have immediately expires. We will notify you of such termination at the email address you provide in your Registration Data, and such termination shall be effective immediately.
You agree that you are solely responsible for all applicable federal, state, or provincial withholding, taxes, and government fees or costs associated with Cash Back Rewards and any exchanges and distributions.
To Receive Payment You Must Maintain a Current Address in your Registration Data
If you make a Cashout Request via check and we do not have a physical mailing address for you, we have the right to notify you by email to require you to provide a physical mailing address within 30 days of the email notice. If you do not provide a physical mailing address by that time, your Cash Back Credits balance will be returned to your account.
If you make a Cashout Request via check and the Cash Back Rewards check expires before you cash it, you can request that the value of the Cash Back Rewards check will be added back to your Cash Back Credits balance, less a $10 check cancellation fee. Any Cash Back Credits so added back to your Cash Back Credits balance is subject to the inactive account management charge described below and any future Cashout Requests will be subject to our Minimum Distribution Amount of Cash Back Credits balance requirement described above.
Inactive Account Management Charge
If at any time your account becomes inactive, we may apply an inactive account management charge of $2 worth of Cash Back Credits per month up to a maximum of the total amount of your Cash Back Credits balance from time to time during that period in which your account is inactive. Your account will be considered “inactive” if there are no Claimed Offers during any consecutive twelve (12) month period. We may apply that charge on or after the first day of the month following the date your account becomes inactive. (For example, if your account becomes inactive on April 15th, we may apply the charge on or after May 1st.) If you claim a GoCoupons Offer after your account becomes inactive, we will stop applying that charge until any later time when your account becomes inactive. We will give you at least three months’ notice prior to your account becoming inactive by email to the address in your Registration Data.
5. Print-at-Home Coupon Service (PAH)
If you print coupons using any of our print technologies through the Services, you agree not to interfere with or circumvent our technologies and you agree to comply with print limits and only print coupons for your own personal and non-commercial use.

16. Dispute Resolution & Arbitration
We expect that our customer service team will be able to resolve most issues you may have using the Services. You can contact our customer service team as described in the “Questions and Comments” section below. In the unlikely event that an issue remains unresolved, we prefer to specify now what each of us should expect in order to avoid any confusion later. Accordingly, you and we agree to the following resolution process.
In an attempt to find the quickest and most efficient resolution of our issues, you and we agree to first discuss any issue informally for at least 30 days, except as provided below. To do that, please send your full name, your email and/or mailing address, your concern, and your proposed solution by certified mail to us at: HOBBS Marketing, 3 Place Ville Marie, suite 400, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H3B 2E3; Attn: Legal Department. If we would like to discuss an issue with you, we will contact you using an email or mailing address we have on file for you.
IF WE DO NOT REACH AN AGREED UPON SOLUTION AFTER OUR DISCUSSIONS FOR AT LEAST 30 DAYS, YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM THAT EITHER OF US MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE (INCLUDING FORMATION, PERFORMANCE, OR BREACH OF THEM), OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH EACH OTHER, THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, OR USE OF THE SERVICES (A “CLAIM”) MUST BE RESOLVED THROUGH PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION. ALL CLAIMS WILL BE ARBITRATED BY A SINGLE ARBITRATOR ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND SHALL NOT BE CONSOLIDATED OR JOINED IN ANY ARBITRATION WITH ANY CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PARTY. AS AN EXCEPTION TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, EITHER YOU OR WE MAY PURSUE IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT ANY CLAIM THAT IS WITHIN THAT COURT’S JURISDICTION AS LONG AS YOU PROCEED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND YOU OR WE MAY AT ANY TIME BRING SUIT IN COURT AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY IN RELATION TO CLAIMS BASED ON INFRINGEMENT OR MISUSE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND/OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF TRADE SECRETS.
NOTHING HEREIN SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO PRECLUDE ANY PARTY FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN ORDER TO PROTECT ITS RIGHTS PENDING AN OUTCOME IN ARBITRATION. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF MAY BE SOUGHT IN A COURT OF COMPETENT SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION LOCATED IN QUEBEC FOR CANADIAN RESIDENTS.
TO HELP RESOLVE ANY ISSUES BETWEEN US PROMPTLY AND DIRECTLY, YOU AND WE AGREE TO BEGIN ANY ARBITRATION WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER A CLAIM ARISES; OTHERWISE, THE CLAIM IS WAIVED.
YOU AND WE ALSO AGREE TO ARBITRATE IN EACH OF YOUR AND OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY, NOT AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF A CLASS, AND YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT COMMENCE OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS AND, WHERE APPLICABLE, YOU AND WE ALSO AGREE TO OPT OUT OF ANY SUCH CLASS PROCEEDING. THE FOREGOING WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION DOES APPLY TO QUEBEC RESIDENTS. IF THIS SPECIFIC PROVISION IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID, BUT THE REST OF THIS AGREEMENT WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT.
If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, unless you request a telephonic or in-person hearing. Arbitration for Canadian residents shall take place in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and shall be conducted in English or French at the choice of the member. If this location is not convenient for you, please let us know and we will work to determine a mutually convenient location. If we cannot agree on such a location, the arbitrator will determine the location of the hearing.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BOTH YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY FOR CLAIMS THAT ARE COVERED BY THIS “DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION” SECTION. THE ARBITRATOR’S DECISION WILL BE CONCLUSIVE AND BINDING AND MAY BE ENTERED AS A JUDGMENT IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION.
You and we agree to maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and shall not disclose the fact of the arbitration, any documents exchanged as part of any mediation, proceedings of the arbitration, the arbitrator’s decision and the existence or amount of any award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration (in which case anyone becoming privy to confidential information must undertake to preserve its confidentiality), or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a provisional remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or court order.
If you’re not sure what all of this means, of course please feel free to ask an attorney.
17. Termination / Modification of License and Site Offerings
Notwithstanding any provision of these Terms, GoCoupons reserves the right, without notice and in its sole discretion, without liability to you, to (a) terminate your license to use the Services, or any portion thereof; (b) block or prevent your future access to and use of all or any portion of the Services or Content; (c) change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of the Services or Content; and (d) impose limits on the Services or Content. If at any time we elect to take an action (a) through (d) above and you have a Cash Back Credits balance equal to or greater than the Minimum Distribution Amount, we will give you notice of the termination and you will have 30 days from the date of the notice to make a Distribution Request for your entire Cash Back Credits balance in accordance with Section 4 of these Terms. If you do not elect to do so within such 30 day period, your entire Cash Back Credits balance will expire and you may no longer make a Distribution Request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have violated these Terms, we reserve the right to cancel your account and, to the extent permitted by law, any pending, current, or future Cash Back Credits balance in your account will expire as described in Section 4.
The provisions of these Terms that are by their nature intended to survive termination (e.g., limitations of liability, indemnities, arbitration agreements, and class action waivers) shall survive.
If we terminate your account, you agree to not create another account without our prior, written authorization.
18. Miscellaneous
If any provision of these Terms shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. GoCoupons may assign the Terms and/or any or all of its rights and/or obligations hereunder to any party without your consent and without notice. You are not permitted to assign any of your rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of GoCoupons, and any such attempted assignment will be void and unenforceable. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and GoCoupons regarding your use of the Services, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications whether electronic, oral or written between you and GoCoupons regarding your use of the Services. No term or condition of these Terms is waived and no breach is excused unless the waiver or consent is in writing and signed by the party claimed to have waived or consented. No consent to or waiver of a particular breach, whether express or implied, shall constitute a consent to or waiver of a different breach. The section titles of the Terms of Service are indicative only and have no contractual or legal effect.
