TIER 0 LOYALTY BONUS POLICY
TIER 0 LOYALTY BONUS POLICY
1. Purpose of This Policy
This Tier 0 Loyalty Bonus Policy exists to provide a goodwill benefit to eligible customers during any quarter where verified net profit does not meet the minimum threshold required to activate Tier 1 under the Official Rules of the Fortis Promotional Program.
This policy does not create a prize, contest, or sweepstakes obligation and does not modify the Official Rules.
2. Definition of Tier 0
Tier 0 occurs when the quarterly verified net profit, as certified by a designated accountant or CPA, is below the minimum threshold required to activate Tier 1.
Under Tier 0:
-
No prize pool is created
-
No winners are selected
-
No prize distribution occurs
This is explicitly stated in the Official Rules.
3. Loyalty Bonus (Non-Prize, Non-Sweepstakes Item)
During a Tier 0 quarter, Fortis may issue a Loyalty Bonus to eligible customers as a gesture of appreciation.
This bonus is not a prize, does not hold monetary value, and does not constitute an element of any sweepstakes, contest, or promotional offering.
The Loyalty Bonus may include one or more of the following:
-
Digital download pack (e.g., wallpapers, backgrounds, or similar non-monetary media)
-
PDF or digital guide
-
Priority access to future releases or drops
-
Discount code for future purchases
-
Brand updates or exclusive content
Fortis may adjust or modify these items at its discretion.
4. Eligibility for Loyalty Bonuses
To receive the Loyalty Bonus for a Tier 0 quarter, a customer must:
-
Have made a purchase during the quarter
OR -
Have an active Fortis Membership during the quarter
No purchase is required for eligibility; customers who submitted a valid Free Entry (NPN method) during the quarter will also receive digital Loyalty Bonuses.
5. Delivery Method
Loyalty Bonuses may be delivered via:
-
Email
-
Customer account portal
-
Download link via Shopify
-
Private access code or password-protected page
Fortis reserves the right to choose the delivery method.
6. No Substitutions or Cash Value
Loyalty Bonuses:
-
Have no retail value
-
Are not redeemable for cash
-
Are not transferable
-
Cannot be substituted for Tier 1–5 prizes

This ensures compliance with consumer protection and sweepstakes laws.
7. No Impact on Prize Tiers
Issuance of a Loyalty Bonus does not affect:
-
Prize tier calculations
-
CPA verification
-
Winner selection
-
Profit thresholds
-
Future prize activations
It is strictly a goodwill benefit.
8. Amendments
Fortis may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Tier 0 Bonus Policy at any time without notice.
Changes do not retroactively affect previous quarters.
