GANBEI CLUB TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The Ganbei Program (the “Program”) is a customer recognition program that rewards enrolled FORTUNE COOKIES guests (“Members”) for dining with us. Enrollment, membership, and all related benefits of the Program, including the use of the website or FORTUNE COOKIES mobile application, are offered to you by FORTUNE COOKIES, at its discretion. The Program is restricted to participating FORTUNE COOKIES restaurants located within the 50 United States, excluding U.S. territories (“Participating Restaurants”). Your participation in this Program is subject to these Terms and Conditions (these “Terms”), including any changes made to these Terms in the future. The Program is sponsored by FORTUNE COOKIES, 18774 Brookhurst Street, Fountain Valley CA 92708. To participate in the Program, you need to be a Member. If you’re not already a Member, you can join at www.fortunecookiesrestaurant.com or via the FORTUNE COOKIES mobile application. Simply follow the instructions you’ll see there. The Program is subject to cancellation or modification at any time without notice. With the Program you will receive credit for each dollar you spend at Participating Restaurants for qualifying purchases. When your stripes balance reaches a reward threshold level, you can claim a reward. You can then visit www.fortunecookiesrestaurant.com or the mobile application, and log in if you desire to request a reward. When you claim your reward, the appropriate number of stripes will be deducted from your account. You will only be able to request rewards that correlate to the number of stripes you have available in your account. Rewards are accessible instantly upon request online or via the mobile application and can be printed, stored on your mobile device, emailed to your email address on file or accessed later as they are stored in a Reward History module within your account. From time to time, you will receive an email notification, to the email address on file, that you have enough stripes to be eligible to claim a reward. Your reward certificate will expire if not used at a Participating Restaurant within 60 days from the date it is issued. Reward certificates may not be used toward payment of tax or tip or for the purchase of alcoholic beverages or FridaysSM gift cards. The reward certificate has no cash value, is not for resale and no change will be given for reward certificate redemption. Your reward certificate will have a serialized number and/or a bar code. Rewards without this information will be considered invalid and will not be accepted in restaurant. The reward certificate terms state that the certificate is for one-time redemption only. The reward certificate will contain the member’s name and should be used by the member. Members cannot request more than two (2) reward certificates on a given date and no more than three (3) reward certificates in a given week. Limit of one (1) reward certificate per Member per visit.
