Referral Rewards

How to receive referral rewards

“Referral Rewards” are vouchers usable towards payment of Fees incurred in connection with Reservations. To earn a Referral Reward: (i) the referring Member (the “Referring Party” or “you”) must send the potential Member (an “Eligible Lead”) their unique referral code for the Circle (“Referral Link”); and (ii) though the Referral Link, the Eligible Lead must submit the necessary information (personal email, name, home city, and proof of Circle affiliation, if appropriate) to join the Circle.
A Referring Party will receive the amount listed in the applicable promotion material in Referral Rewards for each Eligible Lead invited to the Circle who joins (up to the Rewards Limit described below).

‍

Eligibility & redemption

Referral Rewards cannot be used by businesses or individuals for affiliate lead generation, or posted on discount sites. To be eligible for Referral Rewards, the Referring Party and Eligible Lead must be: (1) eligible to use the Services as defined by the Terms; and (2) have current (or former, if appropriate) affiliation with the Circle.

‍

Prohibited referral conduct

Multiple Referrals Received by Eligible Lead. An Eligible Lead may only use one Referral Link. If an Eligible Lead receives Referral Links from multiple Referring Parties, the Eligible Lead may only use one Referral Link and obtain one Referral Reward. Notwithstanding the foregoing, once an Eligible Lead becomes a Circle Member, such person will receive their own Referral Link to act as a Referring Party and may obtain additional Referral Rewards.
Existing Customers. Existing Members cannot send themselves Referral Links (for example, by using a different email address to send a Referral Link to yourself). Sending yourself a Referral Link and using that Referral Link does not qualify you for any Referral Rewards and is prohibited.

‍

Applicable laws

The Referring Party agrees to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and guidelines, including, but not limited to the CAN SPAM Act and the Federal Trade Commission’s Guides Concerning Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (“FTC Guides”), available at https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/07/26/2023-14795/guides-concerning-the-use-of-endorsements-and-testimonials-in-advertising. The Referring Party understands that the Referral Rewards they receive from Kindred might materially affect the weight or credibility that Eligible Leads or other consumers give to the Referring Party’s statements. For this reason, Referring Party will not post, tag, review, or otherwise speak about or refer to Kindred, directly or indirectly, without disclosing such connection (even if you have previously posted about the Kindred Platform with a disclosure), including the fact that you were afforded any Referral Rewards or other consideration, benefits, or any free products or services from Kindred. Such disclosure must be unavoidable and must appear clearly and conspicuously and in close proximity to any statements you make about Kindred, its products and services, and/or the Services performed regardless of the space limitations of the medium. Such disclosure must be easily understandable and accessible by ordinary consumers of the targeted audience and in the same language as your advertisement. The specific form of any such disclosure will be in compliance with the FTC Guides. Any distribution of your Referral Link in violation of the FTC Guides, or that could constitute unsolicited commercial email or "spam" under any applicable law or regulation is expressly prohibited and will be grounds for immediate termination of the Referring Party’s account, exclusion from Rewards Program and the Circle, and forfeiture of any Referral Rewards in your account. This includes mass emailing, texting, or messaging people you do not know or using automated systems or bots to distribute the Referral Link.

Photo upload rewards

How to receive photo upload rewards

To receive vouchers usable toward payment of Fees incurred in connection with Reservations (“Photo Upload Rewards”), an Eligible Lead must upload at least five (5) photos of the Eligible Lead’s home in conjunction with the Eligible Lead’s standard membership sign-up. Eligible Leads will receive $100 in Photo Upload Rewards after completing this step, and after Kindred has verified the home meets the Company’s acceptance guidelines. If an Eligible Lead removes any photos, the Photo Upload Rewards will be revoked.

‍

Kindred's General Rewards Policy

Referral Rewards and Photo Upload Rewards are collectively referred to as “Rewards”. Rewards can only be redeemed for Fees in connection with future Reservations of a home on the Kindred Platform once the applicable Circle has launched, and Rewards-holders meet all of the requirements to become a Member on the Kindred Platform. Kindred has no obligation to launch any particular Circle, and does not guarantee that Eligible Leads or Referring Parties will be moved from the waitlist and become Members.

In no event will Circle Members or individuals who join the Circle through a public link earn more than $750 in total Rewards. Members, Circle Members, and individuals who join the Circle through a public link in countries outside the United States will receive Rewards equivalent to the amount described here but measured in their local currency, unless such a reward or the equivalent is not legal in the applicable country.

Rewards are issued for promotional purposes only, and have no cash value and may not be transferred or exchanged for cash. Rewards can only be redeemed on the Kindred Platform once a Rewards-holder satisfies all of the requirements to become a Member and the Circle has launched. Members can view their current Rewards balance via their Kindred account. Rewards are automatically credited to any Fee for any Reservation at checkout. If there’s any remaining value after that booking, the leftover amount will be automatically applied to the next Reservation. Subject to relevant laws, you have 12 months from the date Circle launch to use any Rewards, and after the 12-month period expires, any unused Rewards will be forfeited.

If for any reason you believe that there is a discrepancy regarding your Rewards balance, please contact us at hello@livekindred.com. We may require that you submit additional information to make a determination regarding your Rewards balance. All decisions regarding Rewards balances will be final and at Kindred’s sole discretion.

You are responsible for any tax consequences that may result from the redemption or use of Rewards. Where applicable, Kindred may be required to account for VAT on any Services for which the Rewards are redeemed.

‍

Severability

If any provisions in this policy are held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, such provision (or the part of it that is making it invalid, void or unenforceable) will be struck and will not affect the validity of and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

‍

Termination and changes

Kindred may suspend or terminate the Rewards Program or your ability to engage with the Rewards Program at any time for any or no reason. The scope, variety, and type of services and Homes that Members may obtain by redeeming Rewards can change at any time.

Kindred reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to verify the eligibility of anyone seeking to participate in this program. If Kindred determines that any individuals referred by a Member, or who have applied to join the Circle waitlist through a public link, is not an Eligible Lead, based on the individual’s email, LinkedIn profile, or other publicly available information, Kindred reserves the right, without limiting any remedies available at law or under the Terms, to remove the associated individuals from the Circle or Circle waitlist, or terminate the associated individual’s membership with Kindred, and cancel any Referral Rewards issued to such associated individuals in connection therewith.

We reserve the right to suspend Members or remove Rewards if we notice any activity that we believe is abusive, fraudulent, or in violation of the Terms. We reserve the right to review and investigate all referral activities and to suspend Members in our sole discretion as deemed fair and appropriate.

We can update this policy at any time without prior notice. If we modify this policy, we will post the modification on the Kindred website or Services, which are effective upon posting. Continued engagement with the Rewards Program, the Platform, or the Circle after any modification shall constitute consent to such modification.
