How long do points stay in the Reward Zone account??

robutek · 12-01-2011

I have enough points to issue a Reward Zone certificate, but I was just curious on how long would the points stay in my account if I do not issue a certificate? I am trying to avoid issuing a certificate since they expire after 3 months. Any help on this issue would be appretiaive. Thanks.

If you're a regular member, as in NOT Premier Silver or have a RZ MasterCard, then the maximum threshold you can have is 1,000 points (a $20 certificate). If you choose that threshold and have anything less than 1,000 points then the points don't expire until February (see below*).

A member who has a RZ MasterCard can have a threshold of 25,000 points (certificates that add up to $500, since you cannot get a certificate issued for more than $95 now). A Premier Silver member can choose to "bank" their points and these points do not ever expire as long as the member retains the Premier Silver status.

*All member's points that are not "banked" (Permier Silver) issue into certificates every February and any points 249 and below (250 = a $5 certificate) are forfeited/canceled.
