What is the Belfast Community Co-op Owner Rewards Program?

The Owner Rewards Program is one way we reward our owners for shopping at the Belfast Community Co-op. Owners earn points every day on every purchase! Owners earn two points for every dollar spent on local products and one point per dollar spent on all other products*. Once 300 points are earned, owners may start redeeming their points. The more you shop, the more points (and money!) you earn to spend at the Co-op.

How do I become part of the Owner Rewards Program?

Every Belfast Community Co-op owner is automatically part of this rewards program! To become an owner, talk to a cashier on your next visit or start the process online. You’ll begin earning rewards immediately upon signing up!

How does the point system work?

You earn points on every item purchased every time you shop at the Co-op. One point equals one penny off a future purchase. So for every 300 points you earn, you can take $3 off a purchase at the Co-op. You may start redeeming at 300 points or continue to save your points for a future purchase.

How do I use my points?

Simply ask the cashier to use your points when checking out at the register. Your cashier will let you know when you have points ready to redeem. You must have a minimum of 300 points to begin redeeming.

Example: If you have 359 points, you can redeem $3.59. But you can not redeem less than $3.00.

How do I keep track of how many points I have?

There are many ways to view your points balance. Printed receipts show your Owner Rewards balance; we also encourage you to go paperless and receive e-receipts via email, which will also show your balance! You can also ask a cashier to tell you how many points you have or give you a view of the total on the register screen. You may also view your balance through the Owner Rewards section of your Shop for Me profile online. Go paperless!

Are there any limits on how I redeem my points?

You must have 300 points saved up to begin redeeming. Once you’ve hit the minimum of 300 points, you may use them at any time, on any purchase you make at the Belfast Community Co-op, or continue to save for a later date. You may even use your points toward your equity payment! There are very few things for which you cannot redeem your points; see the full list of exclusions below.

Owner Rewards Terms & Conditions

Points are attributed to Belfast Community Co-op product purchases only, not the sales tax that may accompany your purchase. Should the purchase total be an uneven amount, points will be rounded up past 50¢ as if the customer spent a dollar. Points may only be used after 300 points have accumulated and will expire 12 months after being earned. Oldest points will be redeemed first automatically. Points can only be redeemed on purchases at the Belfast Community Co-op. Cash will never be given in the reward program. The Belfast Community Co-op reserves the right to change, modify, and/or eliminate the Owner Rewards Program and any terms of use at any time. Should the program be discontinued, customers will be allowed to use any remaining points totaling 300 or above; points below 300 at the time the program is ended will be null and void.

Exclusions

Sales tax may not be redeemed with Owner Rewards points. The following items are not part of the Owner Rewards Program and will not contribute to point accumulation:

Purchases where the total is $0.99 or less
Co-op Gift Cards (points are given at the time of gift card redemption, not purchase)
Donations (Common Cents, Employee Appreciation, etc.)
Tickets or items the Co-op sells on behalf of other groups, such as event tickets or items for fundraisers
Bottle deposits
Other items at the discretion of the Co-op
