</p> Referral Rewards <p> Effective for referrals after August 17, 2016 <br> Cheers to you for sharing Bright Cellars with fellow wine lovers! We have some exciting news.
We’ve officially launched our Member Rewards Program and are so excited to offer a variety of reward options.
After hearing your feedback, active members will now be rewarded in points for referrals, rather than bonus bottles.
This allows you to have full control over the redemption of your rewards points! Of course, points may still be redeemed for bonus bottles, or you may choose to save your points and redeem them for the item of your choice.
For more information on the Bright Cellars Member Rewards Program, please see content below.
</p> Shipping Conditions <p> Unfortunately, severe weather conditions can impact the delivery date of your order (tragic, we know!).
We do our best to only deliver wine of the highest quality, so we may hold our trucks if the forecast predicts that your wine may get too hot or too cold while in transit.
Since the shipments require a signature, there's no need to worry about your wine sitting out in the sun or freezing temps! Just make sure you store your wine at room temperature or refrigerate upon delivery.
If you have any questions about weather delays, please contact the Concierge Team! </p> Gift Card Policy <p> All gift card purchases are final sale and may not be returned for credit or refund.
If your gift card recipient lives in a state we are unable to ship to*, you may either give the gift card to a recipient who lives in a deliverable state or redeem the gift card for personal use (our favorite option).
Gift codes/cards purchased from third-party sellers will not be honored.
</p>
<p> Effective November 18th, 2019 <br> Gift pricing reflects the total dollar amount required to process a 6-bottle wine subscription (1-12 months).
Additional fees cover the cost of shipping and taxes, so that the gift recipient will not owe any additional costs to receive their personalized wine gift.
</p>
<p> *Gift cards are not available for purchase if the recipient’s shipping address is in one of the following states: Alaska, Delaware, Hawaii, Michigan, Mississippi, and Utah.
Additionally, gift card purchase availability is subject to the same local law and regulation restrictions as our subscription service.
Please contact us if you have a question about shipping.
</p> Member Rewards Program <p> Let’s talk rewards! Bright Cellars members may be eligible to receive and redeem points earned from various activities related to their account.
Points are awarded by Bright Cellars and are redeemable for items specified on our Member Rewards page.
Keep in mind, the points are non-transferrable, may not be bartered or sold, may not be pooled with points of other individuals and may not be used in conjunction with any other offers.
The point values of rewardable actions, or the point values of redeemable rewards, may change at any time.
Items purchased by point redemption may not be returned or refunded, with the exception of damaged or defective products.<br> That’s a lot to take in, so feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.
The Concierge Team is always happy to help! </p>
<p> Due to a change in our Rewards program, all referrals made before August 17, 2016 and all accounts with outstanding earned bonus bottles prior to the date stated above, will automatically be rewarded those bonus bottles in their next shipment.
All rewardable actions performed after the date stated above will automatically result in accumulation.
</p>
<p> For example, a referral made before August 17, 2016 will result in a bonus bottle in your next shipment! A referral made after August 17, 2016 will result in a 1000 point credit to your Member Rewards account.
These points can then be immediately redeemed for a bonus bottle in your next shipment, or saved for redemption at a later time.
