- Your Acceptance of These Terms
You accept these Terms and agree to be bound by them when you access or use the Transfer GasBack Funds Program. These Terms are to be read together with the general Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy.

- Program Description
Through various programs including, but not limited to, the GasBuddy Card Link Program, GasBuddy provides registered users with the ability to earn money in the form of credits towards retail gasoline purchases (“GasBack”). GasBuddy and participating merchants define what purchases and / or actions are eligible for GasBack and the related GasBack reward associated with such qualifying purchases and / or actions. Except as set forth in these Terms, GasBack is redeemable only through a registered user’s Pay with GasBuddy card and applied directly to gas purchases made with your Pay with GasBuddy card.
The purpose of the Transfer GasBack Funds Program is to provide registered users who have earned GasBack rewards, but who do not have a Pay With GasBuddy account (each, an “Eligible GasBack Participant”), with the ability to (i) redeem all (and not less than all) of their available GasBack balance for select digital gift cards, or (ii) waive their right to redeem all (and not less than all) of their available GasBack balance and instead instruct GasBuddy to make a charitable donation in the amount of the waived GasBack balance to a charity or charities as may be designated by GasBuddy from time to time. In order to participate in the Transfer GasBack Funds Program your GasBack rewards balance must be at least Five Dollars ($5.00).
GasBack rewards earned from qualifying purchases of goods or services but not yet credited to a Eligible GasBack Participant’s GasBack rewards balance, and GasBack rewards awarded as a result of enrolling in various programs including, the Pay With GasBuddy Program, GasBuddy Plus Membership Program or the GasBuddy Premium Membership Program, will not be considered as part of available GasBack funds (because they were not earned in connection with a qualifying purchase) and a result are not available for use in the Transfer GasBack Funds Program.
Digital Gift Card
Subject to these Terms, an Eligible GasBack Participant may elect to redeem all (and not less than all) of their available GasBack reward balance for digital gift cards with certain merchants as may be designated by GasBuddy from time to time. An Eligible GasBack Participant’s redemption of GasBack rewards for a merchant’s digital gift card is subject to any minimum and maximum purchase amounts and other limitations that may be imposed by GasBuddy or the merchant and as may be published on the GasBuddy mobile app from time to time.
GasBuddy does not assume any liability to an Eligible GasBack Participant for any loss, theft or misuse of any digital gift card issued under the Transfer GasBack Funds Program.
You acknowledge and agree by participating in the Transfer GasBack Funds Program and electing to redeem your available GasBack rewards for a digital gift card, your GasBack rewards balance will be reduced by the amount of the GasBack rewards redeemed for a digital gift card and those available GasBack rewards will no longer be a part of your GasBack rewards balance. As a result, any redeemed GasBack rewards will no longer be available for participation in the Transfer GasBack Funds Program nor will such redeemed GasBack rewards be available to be applied against future retail fuel purchases using a Pay With GasBuddy card.
You are required to update and confirm your contact information in order that GasBuddy may provide the digital gift card to your designated email address. GasBuddy shall not be liable for any failures or errors on your part with respect to providing accurate and complete contact information.
Charitable Donation
Subject to these Terms, an Eligible GasBack Participant may elect to waive their right to redeem all (and not less than all) of their available GasBack reward balance and instead direct GasBuddy to donate those rewards to a charity or charities designated by GasBuddy. At the commencement of the Transfer GasBack Funds Program, GasBuddy has named Feeding America (www.feedingamerica.org) as its designated charity. GasBuddy reserves the right to change designated charities and / or to expand the number of designated charities from time to time. Charities eligible for participation in the Transfer GasBack Funds Program will be listed in the GasBuddy mobile app. An Eligible GasBack Participant’s waiver of GasBack rewards to be designated for a charitable donation may be subject to minimum and maximum donation amounts as may be set forth on the GasBuddy mobile app from time to time.
On a regular basis, but no less frequently than once per calendar month, GasBuddy will accumulate all donated GasBack reward balances from Eligible GasBack Participants and forward such funds to the designated charity or charities.
An Eligible GasBack Participant will not be eligible for any federal or state income tax deduction for a charitable contribution as a result of such Eligible GasBack Participant’s waiver of GasBack rewards and designation of such funds for donation by GasBuddy.
You acknowledge and agree by participating in the Transfer GasBack Funds Program, electing to waive your right to your available GasBack rewards and designating the related funds to be donated by GasBuddy to a charitable organization, your GasBack rewards balance will be reduced by the amount of the donation and those available GasBack rewards will no longer be a part of your GasBack rewards balance. As a result, any redeemed GasBack rewards will no longer be available for participation in the Transfer GasBack Funds Program nor will such redeemed GasBack rewards be available to be applied against future retail fuel purchases using a Pay With GasBuddy card.
You are required to update and confirm your contact information in order that GasBuddy may confirm your election to waive your rights to your GasBack rewards and for GasBuddy to instead donate the related funds to the designated charitable organization. GasBuddy shall not be liable for any failures or errors on your part with respect to providing accurate and complete contact information.
