This agreement outlines your obligations as a member of 8pounds and explains 8pounds's obligations to you. When you sign up as a 8pounds member you agree to the following terms and conditions:

1. Cashback
When you complete a transaction through the 8pounds links you are eligible for the cash back amount specified on the relevant article. Although we do our best to make sure that the depicted cash back amounts are accurate 8pounds can not guarantee that they will be accurate at the time of your transaction. Cashback will only be tracked when a member is logged into their account and follows the merchant link from the 8pounds site.

All transactions are with the individual merchants and not with 8pounds. 8pounds has no responsibility or obligation for the merchant transaction.

All transactions are electronically traced through a third-party network and reported back to 8pounds by the merchant and network. 8pounds will make every effort to make sure the network and merchant report accurate transactions, however 8pounds will not be held responsible for errors in transaction tracking or any form of failed tracking. If there is an error in tracking your transaction, 8pounds will attempt to recover your cashback directly from the relevant merchant but the merchant's decision is final.

If a transaction is reversed by the merchant or network 8pounds will not pay out the relevant cashback. Please see the FAQ section for more information on why transactions are reversed.

2. Payment Reporting and Schedule
Transactions will appear in your member earnings report when the merchant confirms the transaction with 8pounds. Transactions will be validated when the merchant confirms their validation requirements have been met. If the merchant does not provide validation requirements, transactions will attain validated status when the merchant pays 8pounds for the transaction.

8pounds makes no guarantees to payment until payment has been received from the merchant or network.

Cashback payments can be made anytime. Payments will be made with a minimum amount required.  

3. Member Account Validity and Termination
8pounds only allows one account per person and it must be used only by that person. If we find that a user is letting their account be used by multiple people or if we find a user is manipulating multiple accounts we will not hesitate to terminate the accounts in question. You must be a resident of the UK to register for a 8pounds account and receive cashback. 8pounds reserves the right to terminate any member account at any time. 8pounds also reserves the right to refuse membership.

3.1 Fraudulent Transactions
If an account is found to contain transactions gained as a result of fraudulent activity the account may be terminated without notice and any earnings contained will not be paid out to the member. Fraudulent activity will be defined by the relevant merchant. In the event of a merchant claiming fraudulent activity 8pounds will communicate an appeal on your behalf, however the merchant decision is final.

3.2 Spam
If an account is found to contain transactions gained as a result of spamming the account may be terminated without notice and any earnings contained will not be paid out to the member. Spamming is defined as publishing 8pounds links with an account ID outside of the 8pounds website (http://www.8pounds.com).

3.3 Dormant Accounts
If an account is found to be dormant (containing no active transactions for 18 months) the account may be terminated without notice and any earnings contained will not be paid out to the member.

3.4 Invalid Membership
If an account is found to be registered under a member who already has another account the account may be terminated without notice and any earnings contained will not be paid out to the member. If an account is found to be registered by a non-UK resident the account may be terminated without notice and any earnings contained will not be paid out to the member.

4. Modification of Terms and Conditions
we may modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, at any time and in our sole discretion by posting a revised agreement on the 8pounds website.

5. Legal Stuff
This Agreement (Terms and Conditions) will be governed by the laws of the United Kingdom, without reference to rules governing choice of laws.

Our failure to enforce your strict performance of any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of our right to subsequently enforce such provision or any other provision of this Agreement.
