Aspire Rewards Program – Terms & Conditions

Aspire Benefits:

Qualifying members will receive benefits based on designated program type. Details listed below may not all apply to the program type under member enrollment.

Benefits will begin after first qualified order after successful enrollment. If Aspire member does not purchase after enrollment, benefits will not be earned.

Qualified Purchases:

Qualified hearing aids are (a) those products purchased without federal or state funds and (b) hearing aids within designated technology levels and pricing plans. Only qualified hearing aids count toward earned rewards and/or tier placement under the Program as outlined in the benefit description.

Benefit Expiration:

Once awarded, all benefits, including Rebates, Points, and Marketing Co-op – along with any payouts – that are earned from January 1 to December 31 must be used by March 15 of the following year. Otherwise, these benefits will expire.

It is the Aspire member’s responsibility to review their account regularly and report any potential discrepancies found within the Aspire program. Should any potential discrepancies be found, Aspire member must report their concerns to Aspire@signiausa.com, at which point the account will be reviewed. If a discrepancy is discovered,

Signia Aspire will make the correction where applicable and adjust the account for up to three (3) months of the determined error as long as the benefits have not expired or been previously forfeited.

Tier Calculation:

Aspire Members shall maintain an average of four (4) or more monthly qualified unit purchases to stay active in the Aspire program. At the end of each quarter (March 31, June 30, September 30, December 31), the Aspire Tier will be recalculated based on the Aspire Member’s qualified purchases during the quarter. The member will start the next quarter at the earned Aspire Tier from the previous quarter and receive quarterly payout based on that earned tier.

Tier 0 indicates that the minimum for Tier 1 status has not been achieved. Members at Tier 0 are not actively earning benefits; however, existing benefits can be redeemed. When Tier 0 Aspire member purchases minimum 4 qualified units, member will move to an active tier according to units placed, and benefits will be earned on subsequent orders for the quarter. Unit average will then be reassessed at the end of the quarter to determine quarterly tier placement and end of quarter benefit payout.

Account Inactivity:

After the first quarter of inactivity, the member will be notified of status. If inactivity continues in a consecutive second quarter, Signia reserves the right to deactivate the Aspire member and member forfeits their earned benefits. If during a given quarter, the 4 qualified unit/month requirement has not been achieved, then no benefit achievements will be paid out at the end of the quarter. For example, any Aspire member that has made zero qualified unit purchases from April 1-June 30, will receive no quarterly bonus payment on July 1st. A “quarter” is defined as any one of the following three-month periods: January-March, April-June, July-September, October-December.

Termination:

Signia has the right to revoke or freeze benefits if an Aspire member is not in good standing with the program and organization. Any services rendered through the Aspire program can be revoked or removed from the member’s program for any reason. This includes all bonus benefits that are paid on behalf of the member by Signia. Should the member drop in earned tier level to achieve those benefits, Signia reserves the right to stop the services and ask the outside service provider to move billing to the member.

Signia reserves the right to terminate or alter the Program or any services or benefits offered under the Program for any reason at any time in its sole discretion. Aspire Members may terminate Membership at any time with thirty (30) day prior written notice.

Loans, RebateNow, and Business Development funds:

If the commitments in your loan, RebateNow and/or business development agreement are not being met and/or your loan is not in good standing, Signia, at its sole discretion, has the right to immediately and without further notice (i) suspend your participation in Aspire, (ii) deny, freeze, or revoke any open Aspire benefits, and/or (iii) disqualify you from further participation in Aspire.
