Version August 2023

Membership

1. myFreedom is available at all Freedom stores and online in Australia only.

2. Membership and benefits of myFreedom are for the individual Member aged 18 years or older with a unique email address only. Corporations, partnerships, trusts and other entities are not eligible to participate in myFreedom. Trade Customers cannot be a Member of myFreedom.

3. Employees of Freedom, its related bodies corporates or associated entities cannot be a Member of myFreedom.

4. An individual is deemed to be a Member when they sign up in-store or online and/or identify themselves as a Member during a transaction or join myFreedom prior to delivery of all items in a transaction.

5. When joining in-store, a sales consultant will record the individual’s full name and email address as a minimum at the point of sale. Other details may be optionally recorded. An individual may update their Member Profile at any time by visiting a Freedom store or the Website. It is the Member’s responsibility to update their Member Profile including their email, surname, phone and postal address. If a Member has not provided or updated Freedom with correct details, Freedom may not be able to contact the Member about their membership, Benefits, or entry to competitions.

6. Members may only have one myFreedom membership at any time.

7. Members may not transfer their myFreedom membership or Benefits to another person.

8. The myFreedom program in Australia is separate to, and a different program from, the myFreedom program in New Zealand. As such myFreedom Benefits cannot be transferred between the two programs.

9. A Member may end their membership at any time by contacting Freedom’s Customer Service team at freedom-au.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

10. If a membership is cancelled, all Benefits (including for the avoidance of doubt myFreedom Reward Vouchers) will be forfeited, and all outstanding and future Benefits will no longer be valid. 

MyFreedom Benefits

11. To be eligible for myFreedom Member Benefits you must identify yourself as a myFreedom Member before purchase, by quoting your mobile phone number, email or myFreedom Member number and/or name in-store with identification.

12. myFreedom Members are entitled to the everyday Benefit of a $50 myFreedom Reward Voucher for every $1,500 Qualifying Spend at Freedom, within a rolling 12-month period from the date of the first Completed Transaction within that period. For example, if today’s date is 1 April 2023 and a member receives goods worth $100 and has previously spent $100 for goods received on 2 April 2022, and $1300 on 1 December 2022, they would qualify for a $50 myFreedom Reward Voucher. However, if today is 3 April 2023 then they would no longer qualify for the $50 myFreedom Reward Voucher. 

13. Freedom may also provide other Benefits to Members, which may differ from Member to Member, in its sole discretion. For example, Freedom may update a Member account with a Reward Voucher as a result of a purchasing behaviour, incentive and/or promotional activities.

14. Examples of Benefits that Freedom may provide to its Members generally, in its sole discretion, from time to time include extended product return periods, and free shipping on homewares. 

15. myFreedom Reward Voucher/s shall be loaded onto a Member’s myFreedom account and can be redeemed in-store and also online at the Website.

16. myFreedom Reward Voucher/s can be used in whole or part against future purchases at Freedom, in-store and online, but no change can be given.

17. myFreedom Reward Voucher/s is only valid for a period of three (3) months from the date of issue and no unused balance will be refunded or credited after expiry.

18. Where a Valid Purchase is made in-store or online Qualifying Spend will be calculated approximately 48 hours after the date of the Completed Transaction. Any applicable myFreedom Reward Voucher will be loaded onto the myFreedom account within approximately 48 hours of the Completed Transaction. For example, if a Member buys cushions and takes them home on the day of purchase and orders a sofa in the same transaction the Member will receive the Reward Voucher approximately 48 hours after the final item on the transaction has been delivered and the transaction is finalised in Freedom’s system.

19. Freedom reserves the right to introduce a new Benefit, or to withdraw, cancel or vary a Benefit without notice and at any time for any reason whatsoever in its absolute discretion including without limitation a Reward Voucher awarded in error or a Reward Voucher earned fraudulently.

20. Reward Vouchers cannot be sold, transferred, or assigned and are not redeemable for cash or gift cards.

21. If an order is cancelled, Freedom may adjust or reverse Reward Vouchers that were  previously awarded to a Member in that transaction.

22. Members can view their available myFreedom Reward Voucher at any time by visiting a Freedom store or via live chat on the Website, or by going on to the Website and reviewing their account balance

Redemption of Reward Vouchers 

23. myFreedom Reward Voucher cannot be redeemed at Freedom Kitchens or used to purchase Freedom gift cards.

24. myFreedom Reward Voucher can only be redeemed in Freedom stores in Australia and online at the Website.

25. When redeeming a Reward Voucher, the Reward Voucher will be applied as a tender on the order, reducing the balance payable.

26. Reward Vouchers can be redeemed in conjunction with interest free offers.

27. All Reward Vouchers have an expiry date which shall be set out when a Reward Voucher is issued, at which point the Reward Voucher will no longer be available for redemption.

28. Only Reward Vouchers from one myFreedom membership can be redeemed per transaction.

29. Freedom will not be held responsible or liable if Reward Vouchers are not able to be redeemed for whatever reason, but specifically in the case of a Technical Issue including without limitation the failure of software or hardware or an EFTPOS malfunction.

30. A Reward Voucher can only be redeemed once.

31. Subject to the other provisions of these Member Terms and Conditions, multiple Reward Vouchers held by the one Member can be redeemed in the same transaction. For example, if a Member has four $50 myFreedom Reward Vouchers, these can all be used at the same time.

32. Freedom reserves the right in its absolute discretion to exclude certain items and promotions from being redeemed by using Reward Vouchers.

33. Returns: If a customer wishes to return a purchase for reasons other than that the goods are faulty or misdescribed:

a. any Reward Voucher redeemed or utilised during the original purchase that is being refunded will be forfeited;

b. any Reward Voucher redeemed or utilised during the original purchase can be honoured for an exchange if the exchange takes place on the same day as the return, otherwise it will be forfeited;

c. any Reward Voucher that may otherwise have been obtained will be kept but the Member will have the value of the return transaction deducted from their myFreedom Spend. This may result in the Member having a negative myFreedom Spend
