c) Point earnings are based on the net retail purchase transaction volume (i.e., purchases less credits, returns and adjustments) charged to the rewards card during each day by the cardholder. Net purchases are rounded to the nearest dollar and are subject to verification. If a transaction is subject to a billing dispute, the point value of the transaction may be deducted from the point total during the dispute period. If the transaction is reinstated, points will be reinstated.

Email is the primary method for contacting cardholders regarding their participation in the program. It is the Cardholder’s responsibility to update or change the email address on file. This can be done on the program’s website.
New merchant offers are updated periodically. There is not a limit to the number of times a cardholder can earn points for shopping at an AMPRE merchant.
