Points are calculated on the order subtotal excluding shipping and discounts - for example, a Β£100 purchase with a 10% discount will have a rewardable amount of Β£90, giving you 90 points.
How many product reviews can I leave?
You can submit up to five rewarded reviews every 30 days. You must have ordered the product for the reward to count and for each of these product reviews, you will receive 5 points.
Will my points expire?
Your Rare Reward Points will expire after one year. Any action taken (earning or redeeming points) updates the expiration date for the total amount of your points.
For example, if you earn 100 points for placing an order, which will expire in 365 days, but thirty days later you leave a review earning 5 more points, you will then have 105 points in total. The expiry date for the 105 points is 365 days from the date you left the review.

What happens to my points if I return an order?
If you return a order, the Rare Reward Points you earned for that order will be deducted from your account. If it's a partial return, only the points of returned items will be deducted.
Can I return my order if I redeemed rewards points for a discount?
Yes, reward discount codes function like any other discount code or offer. You will receive a full refund and the Rare Reward Points you used to redeem the discount will also be added back to your rewards account.
