These Program Terms and Conditions (these “Program Terms”) set forth the terms and conditions applicable to the Ike’s Love and Sandwiches Rewards Program (the “Program”). These Program Terms, as of their effective date, supersede and replace all prior Program terms and conditions.

Your registration for the Program and/or continued membership in the Program indicates your acceptance of and agreement to all of these Program Terms, including, without limitation the arbitration provision in Section 18 below. Be sure to check these Program Terms located at Rewards T&C Link periodically for updates, as your continued membership in the Program signifies your acceptance of these Program Terms as they exist from time to time, including, without limitation, any changed provisions.
You agree Ike’s may change, add, or eliminate the Program’s rewards or benefits, or participating locations; or change or end the Program or any feature of the Program; in whole or in part, at any time, and without notice or compensation, even though such actions may affect rewards in the Program or your participation in the Program.
You agree that Ike’s may provide notices, disclosures, amendments to, and replacements of, these Program Terms, and other information relating to the Program by electronic means, including posting such materials online at Rewards Link and/or Rewards T&C Link.

The Program is only valid at participating Ikes’s locations, which may change from time to time in the sole discretion of Ike’s.

3. Earning Program Points; Conversion of Points to Points Rewards; Redemption; Expiration.
Earning Program Points: Subject to these Program Terms, an eligible member whose Program account is in good standing may earn 1.00 point per one U.S. dollar ($1.00) spent on eligible purchases at participating Ikes’s locations in the fifty (50) United States and the District of Columbia. Eligible purchases are limited to in-store purchases at participating Ike’s locations, and online and mobile “to go” and “catering” purchases from a participating Ike’s location through the Ike’s website at www.ikessandwich.com or the Ike’s Rewards App. Points are intended to appear in your Program account contemporaneously upon completion of an eligible purchase (and after the scheduled pick up time, or after delivery, if applicable); however, there may be a processing delay in posting of points, and Ike’s shall have no liability associated with the timing of posting of points. Completion of an eligible online or mobile purchase requires pick up of the associated order. Points are not earned on (and eligible purchases do not include) redemption and use of Points Rewards (as defined below) or Program Rewards (as defined below); past purchases; online or mobile orders which are not picked up; taxes, fees, charges or other assessments; tips; reversed or voided transactions, charitable and other donations; credit card fees or other charges; third party delivery fees or other charges; purchases of gift cards and gift certificates, or purchase or loading of stored value or gift card amounts; unauthorized or fraudulent charges; cancelled or returned orders; or incomplete or reversed payments, or chargebacks. Points are earned only on the actual amount paid by a member in a completed, eligible purchase (after any applicable discounts, offers and promotions, and before taxes and any fees). Points are earned on partial dollar purchases, and a partial dollar purchase amount will not be rounded up or down to the next dollar; for example, a $6.51 purchase would earn 6.51 points. Purchases at or for nonparticipating locations, or online/mobile other than through www.ikessandwich.com or the Ike’s Rewards App, or through third party delivery or catering companies (such as DoorDash, GrubHub, UberEats, etc.), are not eligible purchases and do not earn points. Points, if previously earned, will be deducted by Ike’s, in its sole discretion and without notice, for ineligible purchases, reversed or voided transactions, non-points earning activities, and other circumstances and corrections affecting an applicable transaction. Participating Ike’s locations are subject to change in Ike’s sole discretion without notice.
To earn rewards based on making eligible purchases (“Points Rewards”) (a) if making an in-store purchase, you must provide your Program account at the point of sale at a participating Ike’s location prior to completing your purchase using the Ike’s Rewards App (by providing the check in code on your Ike’s Rewards App), the phone number registered to your Program account, or (b) if making an online or mobile purchase, you must log into your Program account at www.ikessandwich.com or on the Ike’s Rewards App and place your order through your Program account.
Points Rewards; Redemption; Expiration:
Subject to these Program Terms, beginning May 15, 2021, a Program member will receive one (1) ten dollar ($10.00) points reward for each one hundred and fifty (150) points accumulated by the member in the member’s Program account (a “Points Reward”). A member may earn up to a maximum of two hundred (200) points in any single day.
Once you have accumulated the required number of points to earn a Points Reward, those points will be removed by us from your Program account and converted to a Points Reward which will be posted in your Program account. A Points Reward is a credit for up to $10.00 to be used for an eligible purchase at or from a participating Ike’s location. Items excluded from an eligible purchase (as described above), and any remaining purchase price difference in a transaction in which a Points Reward is used, are the sole responsibility of a member, to be paid at the time of an eligible purchase. A Points Reward (including an unused balance) expires thirty (30) days after posting to your Program account, and if a Points Reward (including any unused balance) expires without full redemption, the associated points will not be reinstated to your Program account, nor will the Points Reward (or any unused balance) be subject to reissuance. Conversion of points and posting of Points Rewards will be on such schedule as determined by Ike’s, and Ike’s shall have no liability associated with timing of posting of Points Rewards. You may view your Points Rewards in your Program account online at Login Link or on the Ike’s Rewards App, or by asking a sales representative at a participating Ike’s. A Points Reward may be used in multiple transactions; however the Points Reward must be redeemed in full prior to the Points Rewards’ respective expiration date.
You may only redeem a Points Reward in-store at a participating Ike’s location, or online at www.ikessandwich.com or by mobile using the Ike’s Rewards App to make a purchase from a participating Ike’s location. To redeem a Points Reward in-store, you must identify your Program account at the point of sale prior to completing your purchase using the App or the phone number registered to your Program account. To redeem a Points Reward online or by mobile, you must log into your Program account at www.ikessandwich.com or on the Ike’s Rewards App, place your order, and select use of a Points Reward. Points Rewards will be applied and removed from your Program account in order of posting. Once made, a Points Reward selection is not subject to change, substitution or reversal by a member. Your Points Reward will be removed from your Program account at the time of use; provided, however, if you do not use the full amount of a Points Reward at the time of making an eligible purchase, the unused balance will continue to be available for use by you for another eligible purchase, subject to expiration of the Points Reward.
Points Rewards may not be used or combined with any other Points Rewards (except as provided below), Program Rewards (unless otherwise specified by Ike’s in an applicable Program Reward), or other offer, promotion, discounts, coupons or credits offered by Ike’s (“Other Promotions”). There is a maximum aggregate redemption limit of two (2) ten dollar ($10.00) Points Rewards per Program member in a single day (regardless of the number of visits or purchase transactions in such day).
Points and unused earned Points Rewards (if you have any) will be identified in your Program account accessible by logging into your Program account online at Login Link or on the Ike’s Rewards App, or by asking a sales representative at a participating Ike’s location. Your points and Points Rewards shall be as reflected in our records, unless you can prove otherwise to our satisfaction.
Points and Points Rewards (a) have no cash value, (b) may not be redeemed or exchanged for cash or any cash equivalent, (c) may not be used to satisfy any requirement of any offer that requires you to purchase any item, (d) may not be substituted (except by Ike’s, in its sole discretion) and (e) are not transferable.

Your continued participation in the Program will constitute your acceptance to any amendment to or replacement of these Program Terms.
18. Arbitration.
Please review this provision carefully. It provides that any dispute must be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration replaces the right to go to court and the right to have a jury decide a dispute. Under this provision, your rights may be substantially limited in the event of a dispute. By accepting these Program Terms, you agree that either you or Ike’s, at Ike’s sole discretion, can choose to have any dispute arising out of or relating to Points Rewards, Program Rewards, the Program, these Program Terms, your Program account or your relationship with Ike’s resolved by confidential, binding arbitration. If arbitration is chosen by any party, neither you nor Ike’s will have the right to litigate that dispute in court or to have a jury trial on that dispute. Pre-arbitration discovery will be permitted only as allowed by the arbitration rules. In addition, you will not have the right to participate as a representative or member of any class of claimants pertaining to any dispute subject to arbitration. The arbitrator’s decision will generally be final and binding. Other rights that you would have in court may also not be available in arbitration. It is important that you read the entire Arbitration provision carefully before accepting the terms of these Program Terms.
For purposes of this Arbitration provision, “dispute” shall be construed as broadly as possible, and shall include any claim, dispute or controversy (whether in contract, regulatory, tort or otherwise, whether pre-existing, present or future and including constitutional, statutory, common law, intentional tort and equitable claims) arising from or relating to any of your Program account; your Ike’s Card; Points Rewards; Program Rewards; the Program or the operation or use thereof; the actions of yourself, Ike’s, or third parties; or the validity of these Program Terms or this Arbitration provision. It includes disputes brought as counterclaims, cross claims, or third-party claims. A party that has brought a dispute in a court may elect to arbitrate any other dispute that may be raised in that litigation. Disputes brought as part of a class action or other representative basis are subject to arbitration on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. IF YOU ACCEPT THESE PROGRAM TERMS, YOU WILL HAVE WAIVED YOUR RIGHT TO INDICATE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION RELATED TO THESE PROGRAM TERMS AND RELATED MATTERS. In this Arbitration provision, the words “we,” “us,” and “our” shall include Ike’s and any assignees of Ike’s rights, as well as Ike’s and its assignees’ respective affiliates, parents, subsidiaries, franchisees, vendors, suppliers, and further assigns.
Any arbitration under this Arbitration provision shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the rules applicable to the resolution of consumer disputes in effect when the dispute is filed. The arbitrator shall have no authority to hear any disputes on a class action or representative basis. Neither you nor Ike’s may consolidate or join the disputes of other persons who may have similar disputes into a single arbitration. You may obtain rules and forms by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879 or visiting www.adr.org. Any arbitration hearing that you attend will take place in the Federal judicial district where you reside. Ike’s will not elect arbitration of any dispute that is filed as an individual matter by you in a small claims or similar court, so long as the dispute is pending on an individual basis in that court.
A single, neutral arbitrator will decide any disputes. The arbitrator must be either a retired or former judge or a lawyer with no less than ten (10) years’ experience, selected in accordance with the AAA’s rules. The arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) and applicable statutes of limitations, will honor claims of privilege under applicable law, and will have the power to award to a party any damages or other relief provided under applicable law. Any party may choose to have a hearing and may choose to be represented by counsel. The arbitrator will issue an award in writing and, upon request, will provide a written explanation for the award. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
The party initiating an arbitration must pay the AAA’s initial filing fee, although you can ask the AAA to waive the filing fee and we will consider your request that we pay the filing fee on your behalf. Ike’s will pay any subsequent administration fees imposed by the AAA, and Ike’s will pay the arbitrator’s fee for up to one day of hearings. All other fees will be allocated as provided by the AAA’s rules and applicable law. If you prevail in arbitration, Ike’s will reimburse you any fees paid to the AAA. However, even if Ike’s prevails, it will not seek reimbursement from you of any fees Ike’s paid to the AAA unless the arbitrator determines that your dispute was brought in bad faith. Each party shall bear its own costs of attorneys, experts, and witness fees, regardless of which party prevails in the arbitration. However, if applicable substantive law gives you the right to seek reimbursement of attorneys’ fees or other fees or costs, then that right shall also apply in the arbitration.
This Arbitration provision shall survive termination of your participation in the Program. This Arbitration provision is made in connection with interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 USC Sections 1 through 16. If any part of this Arbitration provision is determined to be void or unenforceable, it shall not affect the validity of the rest of this Arbitration provision and/or the rest of these Program Terms.
19. Force Majeure.
Ike’s is not responsible or liable to you, or any person claiming through you, for failure to supply or fulfill an award, benefit or points in the Program in the event the Program or its operations are affected by any acts of god, any action, regulation, order, or request by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity, equipment failure, actual threatened terrorist acts, weather, natural phenomenon, pandemic, epidemic, public health matter, war (declared or undeclared), fire, embargo, labor dispute or strike, labor or material shortage, transportation, interruption of any kind, civil disturbance, insurrection, riot, or any laws, rules, regulations or orders or other action adopted or taken by any national, federal, state, or local government authority, or any other cause, whether or not specifically mentioned above.
20. Law Enforcement/Government Requests.
You agree that nothing contained in these Program Terms prevents Ike’s from complying with law enforcement or governmental requests or requirements relating to your participation in the Program or information provided to or gathered by Ike’s with respect to such participation.
21. Program Void.
The Program is void where prohibited or restricted by federal, state or local law. If any provision of these Program Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be severed from the remainder of these Program Terms, which will otherwise remain in full force and effect.
22. Entire Agreement.
These Program Terms constitute the entire and exclusive agreement between you and Ike’s with respect to the Program. These Program Terms supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, agreements, advertising, descriptions, terms and conditions, and proposals, whether electronic, oral, or written, with respect to the Program or any other version of a member loyalty or rewards program from Ike’s or any Ike’s affiliate. Both you and Ike’s acknowledge that neither you nor Ike’s has been induced to enter into these Program Terms by any representations or promises not specifically stated in these Program Terms.
