In order to get a Travel FREE card, participants in the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD Program need to fill out the registration form shown in the Regulations. The card is personalised by way of a unique bar code assigned to each individual participant. The Travel FREE Card is free of charge. Participants begin to collect points as of the first transaction they make after activating the Travel FREE card, i.e. after completing the registration on the tablet.

For each purchase carried out in the Travel FREE stores, when the Travel FREE Card is presented and scanned, the participants’ account is supplied with one point for each EUR 1 spent (the reference rate of exchange shall be as indicated by BNR* on the transaction day, as listed at the cash registers), except the purchase of tobacco products. For the purchase of this products no points will be added to the participants’ account. No partial points shall be accumulated in the case of amounts lower than EUR 1. The points gathered by participants shall not be exchanged for money, products or services. No points shall be granted for values not paid with cash or by bank card. Participants gather points only for the difference between the total amount of the purchase and the value of vouchers used for the respective purchase.

The Travel FREE Card holders who do not deliver their cards for scanning before the purchase will not be supplied with points and shall not benefit from any potential promotional campaigns aimed at the Travel FREE Card holders valid when the purchase is made in the Travel FREE stores.

The card holder shall be granted 50 bonus points free of charge, as a welcome in the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD Program.

For every 300 accumulated points, Participants will be granted a EUR 10 discount voucher (the equivalent value in lei shall be calculated based on the BNR* rate of exchange valid on the day when the voucher is used, as listed at the cash registers). The voucher shall be valid as of the day following the issuance and may be used for 2 months, in any Travel FREE store in Romania. Upon utilisation, the voucher (printed or digital, on the mobile) shall be presented by the Participants to the Organiser’s staff in the Travel FREE store, for scanning at the cash register, together with the Travel FREE Card. Each granted voucher may be used once, within the set deadline. The Participant is directly responsible for keeping the voucher in optimal conditions for use. In case of loss or damage of the voucher, its collection can only be done from the account created on our website https://www.travel-free.ro/. Registration on the website is based on the card series and the date of birth, but an e-mail address is also required in order to set the password. If on the initial registration form an e-mail address has not been filled in, the Participant has the option to fill in an update form to provide the e-mail address. On the website account are available information regarding vouchers and balance points.

Discount vouchers awarded to Participants as part of the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD Program may not be exchanged for money, products or services. Discount vouchers awarded to Participants as part of the loyalty program may not be used to purchase tobacco products.

Each year, if 12 months have elapsed since the Participant's entry into the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD Program, the Participant receives 50 bonus points. Also the Participants shall be awarded 50 bonus points on their birth day and 20 loyalty points – free of charge – in exchange for their consent to receive personalised information by e-mail.

Participants in the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD loyalty program may also benefit from the following: discounts for the selected products, the possibility to accumulate multiple points for the selected products, personalised offers throughout the year, as per the Organiser’s marketing policy. Unused points accumulated by one card holder expire in twelve months.

Each participant is entitled to one Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD loyalty card. Forgery of any card shall be punished under the current Laws.

The balance of accumulated points may be checked in person, at the Travel FREE stores, and online by accessing https://www.travel-free.ro, and filling out the card series and birth date to create an account.  

If Participants should return the purchased goods for which they accumulate points on the Travel FREE card, the Organiser shall cancel the number of points previously awarded for the purchase of returned goods. If participants should wish to return products purchased based on a discount voucher granted under the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD card loyalty program, they may only do so in the case of products with hidden flaws. No returns shall be accepted in the case of products in perfect state with no hidden flaws upon purchase. The return referred to in the aforementioned rule implies two situations:

The Travel FREE loyalty card is not a payment instrument. Holders may not purchase products or services based on this card, they may only benefit from the advantages granted by Heinrig Impex SRL Filiala Bucureşti.

The Organiser reserves the right to check the accuracy of the information provided by participants on the Registration Forms for joining the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD loyalty program upon signing the Registration Form.

If a member of the Exclusive CLUBCARD loyalty program places an order on www.travelfree.ro, he can enter the number of the card he owns in the Remarks section of the "Complete Order" step. After checking the correspondence between the data in the customer account of www.travelfree.ro and those registered in the Exclusive CLUBCARD database, the points related to the placed order will be added manually, within 7 working days, starting from the day of delivery of the products.

In case of return of a product or several products from the order placed on www.travelfree.ro, the related points will be manually deducted from the CLUBCARD account balance.

The 10 Euro voucher is issued and used exclusively in any of the physical Travel FREE Romania stores.

7. UTILISATION OF THE TRAVEL FREE LOYALTY CARD

Utilisation of the Travel FREE loyalty card may only be done by its holder, otherwise, the holder takes the whole liability for any issue which may occur in relation to the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD loyalty program benefits. In order for them to benefit from the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD loyalty program, upon purchase, the Travel FREE loyalty card holders need to hand over their cards to the Travel FREE store employee, who will return the card after scanning it with the help of the bar code reader. Upon scanning, the Organiser’s employee will be able to read the name and surnames of the card holders, for the purpose of identifying the card holder.

Cards will be automatically supplied with the points afferent to the respective purchase, pursuant to these Regulations. 

The system is consolidated and it includes all Travel FREE stores in Romania, so that all points earned in any Travel FREE store shall be aggregated in the same Participant account as part of the Travel FREE Exclusive CLUBCARD loyalty program.

8. DEACTIVATION OF THE TRAVEL FREE LOYALTY CARD

Deactivation of the Travel FREE card may be carried out only in the following cases:

In case of fraud, attempted fraud or improper use of the loyalty program. 

If the card is deactivated, Participants lose all points accumulated in their account, as well as any other benefits generated by their capacity as holders of the Travel FREE loyalty card, respectively.
After cancellation, the card will not be reactivated, but the card holders may request that a new Travel FREE loyalty card be issued by filling out a Registration Form.

9. REPLACEMENT OF THE TRAVEL FREE CARD

Is allowed when the card is damaged, lost or stolen. To this end, the Travel FREE card holders are asked to resort to the help of Travel FREE Romania store employees. One of the employees will replace the card after completing the Participant's identification data (name, surname, date of birth and address validation). The replacement will be done digitally, on the tablet available in the store, by accessing the Card Replacement Form. In this case, the Participant has the right to receive a new card. The replacement of the card will be done immediately, based on the completion of the Replacement Form. The points already accumulated before the damaging, the theft or loss of the card shall be transferred to the new Travel FREE card.

The first replacement of the card is free of charge. In the event that the replaced card is declared damaged, stolen or lost, 10 points will be withdrawn/charged for its replacement from all points accumulated by the cardholder.

In the situation where the replacement of the card is requested during a period when there are network connection errors, the holder will be issued a new card, and the points related to the purchases made until the allocation of the new card will be transferred to the participant's account on the first working day.

If the replacement request is made during non-business days, the card holder shall be issued a new card, and the points afferent to purchases made before the assignment of the new card shall be transferred to the client’s account on the first business day.

The Organiser is entitled to check if card replacement or the issuance of a new card is justified and possibly decline that a new card be issued.
