Backpack Referral Program Terms and Conditions
The Backpack Referral Program allows registered Backpack users (a “Backpack User”) to earn Backpack Credits by referring friends to Backpack. Backpack Credits are “points” that may be applied as credits toward future Backpack requests. To participate, Backpack Users must agree to these terms, which become part of the Backpack Terms of Service. Capitalized terms that are not defined here will have the same meaning given to them in the Backpack Terms of Service.
How to Earn Referral Backpack Credits
Backpack Users can earn Backpack Credits towards future Backpack request if: (i) a referred friend clicks on their referral link to create a valid Backpack account that complies with our Terms of Service; and (ii) the referred friend completes a Qualifying Request or Trip either as a shopper or as a traveler. Neither the Backpack User may be the traveler nor the shopper on the Qualifying Request or Trip made by the referred friend. The referring Backpack User will be credited with the Backpack Credit amount described in the accompanying promotional materials.
To Refer a Friend
Any user who is registered with Backpack can refer a friend. You do not need to have ever shopped an item on Backpack or been a Backpack traveler to refer a friend. We refer to the person receiving a referral code as your referral. Referral codes should only be used for personal and non-commercial purposes. This means that you can share your invite link with your personal connections via email, Twitter, Facebook, and personal blogs. You agree not to publish or distribute the link, or cause the link to be published or distributed, on or via methods, platforms and media where you have no reasonable basis for believing that all or most of the readers or recipients are your personal friends (such as coupon websites, Reddit, Wikipedia).
Qualifying Activities (Request Or Trip)
A Qualifying Request must have a total value (excluding home delivery fees or taxes) of at least ৳1,000 (or its local currency equivalent* if we support it) and a Qualifying Trip must contain a total number of products of 10 or more. All activities must occur and paid for via the Backpack platform, and completed by the referral, in order to receive or redeem Backpack credits. An activity that is subsequently canceled, refunded or altered such that the total value becomes less than BDT 1,000 (or its equivalent in your referral’s local currency*, if supported by us), does not qualify for Backpack credits. An activity also does not qualify if you are either the shopper or the traveler on Backpack, or if both the shopper and the traveler were referred by you.
Receiving and Redeeming Backpack Credits
You will receive Backpack credit after your referral's qualifying Backpacking activity has taken place. As soon as one of your referrals successfully completes a qualifying activity, you will be credited with the appropriate Bangladeshi Taka amount (or its equivalent in your local currency* if we support it.) Backpack Credits will automatically appear as a discount on eligible items, and must be used on a qualifying request within three months from the date they are issued. Backpack credit can be used to pay the applicable discount amount of a qualifying request, unless the shopper has credit amount that has been refunded from a cash payment. These amounts may vary during special promotional periods. After three months, the Backpack credits will expire. Backpack Credits may not be combined with additional discounts. Backpack Credits may not be transferred or exchanged for any cash or money. Backpack Credits may not be earned by creating multiple Backpack Accounts. Backpack Credits accrued in multiple Backpack accounts may not be combined into one Backpack account.
Sharing Referral Links
Referrals should only be used for personal and non-commercial purposes, and only shared with personal connections that will appreciate receiving these invitations. Referral links should not be published or distributed where there is no reasonable basis for believing that all or most of the recipients are personal friends (such as coupon websites, Reddit, Youtube or Wikipedia).
Referred Friends
Referred friends that have signed up using a valid referral link will also receive a Backpack Credit toward their next Qualifying Request on Backpack. The standard Backpack Credit is ৳500 (or its local currency equivalent* if we support it), but may vary in some cases if the referred friend signed up as part of a special promotion. Varying credit amounts and additional terms will be shown in the referral invitation or accompanying promotional materials.
Multiple Referrals
A referred friend may only use one referral link. If a referred friend receives referral links from multiple Backpack Users, only the corresponding Backpack User of the referral link used by the referred friend will receive Backpack Credit.
Refunds
Refunds requested by Shoppers usually take 1-2 weeks to issue after the request, but it can take up to 60 days, given unavoidable circumstances.
Severability
If any provision in these terms are held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, such provision (or the part of it that is making it invalid, void or unenforceable) will be struck and not affect the validity of and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
Limited Time Only
This incentive program is for a limited time only, and we may withdraw or suspend this incentive program (in whole or in part) at any time. The requirements and incentives are also subject to change at any time.
If You’ve Been Invited To Join Backpack Via a Referral
Sign up using a valid referral code (or by clicking on a valid referral link) from an existing Backpack user and you’ll receive Backpack credit for BDT 500 (or its equivalent in your local currency*, if we support it) for use toward your next qualifying activity on Backpack.
We reserve the right to suspend your account and remove referrals should we notice any activity we determine as abuse of the referral program.
- Your or your referral’s local currency equivalent credit amount will be calculated using a system-wide rate, known as the base exchange rate, for currency conversion using data from one or more third parties, such as OANDA. We regularly update the base exchange rate, but it may not be identical to the real-time market rate.
Termination and Change
Backpack may suspend or terminate the Referral Program or a user’s ability to participate in the Referral Program at any time for any reason. Requirements and incentives may also change at any time. Backpack Credits earned as a result of fraudulent activities are null and void. We reserve the right to suspend accounts or remove referrals if we notice any activity that we believe is abusive or fraudulent. We reserve the right to review and investigate all referral activities and to suspend accounts or cancel or modify referrals as we deem fair and appropriate. Non-fraudulent accrued Backpack Credits are not affected by suspension or termination of the Referral Program or a user’s participation.
Updates to the Terms
We can update these terms at any time without prior notice. If we modify these terms, we will post the modification on the Backpack website, applications, or services, which are effective upon posting. Continued participation in the Referral Program after any modification shall constitute consent to such modification. If the modified terms are not acceptable, the only recourse is to stop sending referrals or participating in the Referrals Program.
** The referral’s local currency equivalent credit amount will be calculated using a system-wide rate, known as the base exchange rate. We regularly update the base exchange rate, but it may not be identical to the real-time market rate.*
