A: The IMPACT REWARD$ printer will only print 5 coupons at a time. You simply need to touch your key tag to the printer again and up to 5 more reward coupons will print. Repeat until no further IMPACT REWARD$ Reward Coupons print.

Q: Do I have to "cash in" points for some rewards or do I keep on building points even after a certain level has been hit and a coupon issued?
A: Points will continue to accumulate and build. Your points will not go away, you won't use them up and they don't need to be "cashed in" in order to receive rewards. Rewards are earned incrementally for each available reward. It works similar to the how your odometer and trip odometer work on your vehicle.

  • Your total points (like mileage on an odometer) will continue to climb.
  • Your rewards are similar to a trip odometer. Each reward level has its own "trip odometer" and when you reach the required number of points for a reward level it will roll over to 0 and begin again as your total points continue to accumulate.
  • When enough points have been earned for a particular reward, it will automatically print the next time you uses the IMPACT REWARD$ key tag at the Guest Reward Center printer.

*You will not have a choice of which reward coupons will print. It is automatic.

Q: Are all rewards based on points I've earned?
A: Some IMPACT REWARD$ Reward Coupons are based on the points you have earned and some may be given out randomly. You may also receive some rewards as result of a club item purchase such as a particular product where you buy 8 get 1 free. When you reach the number required for the club you will automatically receive on FREE.

Q: Will my points ever be reset or will they continue to accrue indefinitely?
A: Points for a particular reward are only reset when the reward has been earned. Your total points will continue to accumulate.

Q: Can I substitute a prize of equal value if I do not want one of the items on the list?
A: Unfortunately, you will need to choose from one of the items listed on the reward coupon. Many of the rewards offered are specified by a particular vendor.

Q: May I turn in several lower point level rewards for a higher point level reward?
