The Details:
Effective Date: August 8, 2024
We’ve tried to keep it a simple as possible, but our lawyer (nice guy, really, but he likes things a certain way) made us put in all these details:Minty is a division of AddShoppers, Inc. These Terms will refer to “Minty” or “us” for Minty and the rest of AddShoppers, and “You” for you. These terms cover all of Minty’s services (“Services”), including our messaging service (“Messages”), our website Minty.com (the “Site”), our mobile applications for Android and iOS devices (our “Apps”), and our browser extension (our “Extension”). By signing up for a Minty account or by accessing our Site, Extension, or one of our Apps, you agree to these terms and conditions just as if you signed a contract in person. If you have any questions, please let us know
All personal information we collect or process is subject to our Privacy Policy.
THESE TERMS CONTAIN AN ARBITRATION PROVISION AND JURY TRIAL AND CLASS ACTION WAIVERS IN SECTION 16 , BELOW. PLEASE READ THEM CAREFULLY. THEY AFFECT YOUR RIGHTS. YOU AGREE THAT BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES, DOWNLOADING AN APP, INSTALLING THE EXTENSION, OR SIGNING UP FOR A MINTY ACCOUNT, YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST MINTY ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.
1. Cashback and discounts
When you sign up for Minty, we provide you with money-saving offers on brands you love. Offers may be in the form of Minty Cashback points (explained below) or in the form of Minty-exclusive discount codes you can use directly with a merchant. Over time, we learn what products and services interest you most, and bring you the offers that will be most interesting to you. You get the good offers, and don’t waste time with the bad.
Access to Minty is free. We make money when you activate cashback offers or use Minty discounts and make eligible purchases. We strive to bring you the best available cash back offers and discounts, but we may not always find the best one. We are not responsible for any missed offers or coupons.
2. Use of data
We collect and use data about you, as set out in our privacy policy. We use data we collect to bring you offers for goods and services just when they are most useful to you. We also use data that is de-identified or aggregated with other data to give our merchant partners insights into how people interact with their brands and products. We also collect and use data to give you credit for Minty Cashback you’ve earned.
Your attempt to redeem a Minty Cashback or discount offer may fail if the methods we use to attribute purchases to you are overwritten or disabled by your device, browser, ad-blocking software, other services you use which activate affiliate tracking, or failure by the extension, merchant, or merchant’s affiliate network to properly track your transaction. Your device, browser or ad-blocking software, or other services you use which activate affiliate tracking, may overwrite or disable the methods we use to attribute earnings to you. Merchants may have technical failures which result in transactions failing to be tracked or attributed to you, in which case we are unable to credit Cashback to your account.
3. Creating an account
To sign up for a Minty account, you must be at least 18 years old and must be a resident of the United States. If you are eligible, you can sign up at join.minty.com. When you create an account, you'll automatically be signed up to earn Minty Cashback.
You agree not to abuse the Minty Cashback program by conduct which is detrimental to the interests of Minty, including without limitation, attempting to accrue Minty Cashback or redeem Minty Cashback in a manner inconsistent with these terms or the intent of these terms, attempting to earn points through illegitimate channels, participating in redemption fraud, or tampering with the program or its tools.
4. The Extension
One way Minty can identify websites and merchants where we can offer you Minty Cashback is through our browser Extension. You can download the Extension to your compatible desktop browser that will alert you to Minty Cashback offers and/or discount offers at a variety of merchants.
The extension is available on the Chrome browser and we are developing Extensions for Edge, Firefox and Safari. If you install our Extension, you consent to automatic updating of the browser extension on your device and agree that these Terms will apply to all such updates. If you choose to install the Extension on multiple browsers or devices, you will need to download the Extension separately on each device. If you’ve downloaded the extension to a browser and multiple devices have that same browser which are set to sync, updates to the Extensions should sync; however, your activity may not. For example, if you have activated an offer on your browser to shop, but then change to a new device to finish your transaction, you will have to activate the offer again (if still available) on the new device.
5. Messages
By creating an account you agree that you consent to receive messages from Minty, either by email or SMS (or both). You can unsubscribe from receiving messages any time by using your account Communications Preferences page, clicking the link at the bottom of our emails or texting back STOP in reply to a text message. Stopping one type of message will not stop an alternative type - unsubscribing from email will not stop texts, and vice versa. Also, when creating an account you agree to the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy.
5.1. SMS/Text Messaging
By texting JOIN to MINTY (64689) or otherwise signing-up for Minty services over SMS you agree to receive multiple text messages from Minty over time. These messages will include account updates, and may include promotional messages from Minty on behalf of itself or others. All messages will be from Minty only; we will not allow third parties to send you messages through this number. You will receive a confirmation text message with a code to confirm your sign-up. If you do not receive a message, please check your phone settings to ensure you can send and receive from short code numbers. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
Text messages may be sent using an automatic telephone dialing system and may be sent using SMS, MMS or other technology. Consent to receive such messages is not required as a condition of purchasing any goods or services. By signing up for the mobile program, you warrant and represent that you are either the account owner of any mobile or residential phone numbers you provide to Minty, or you have the express permission of the account holder to provide such numbers. If you change your mobile phone number, you agree to promptly update your information with Minty so that we do not continue to send messages to a number not in your control.To stop receiving text messages in connection with your use of the Services, text the word STOP to MINTY, or update your preferences in our Communications

We may change text messaging policy from time to time, at our discretion. We will advise you of material changes to this messaging policy through our website or other means, and all amended terms shall automatically be effective as of the date of the amended policy (unless otherwise specified). Your continued participation with a text message program will be deemed to be acceptance of the policy, as revised.
5.2. Other Messaging Platforms
We want to communicate with you in the ways you’re most comfortable. Minty is continuously evaluating additional ways of communicating, and will deploy the capability to communicate using third party messaging apps where there is demand. Opting in to receiving messaging through one of these third party messaging apps is entirely up to you, and can be managed in our preference center. Messages through third party apps depend on the availability of the third party service, and Minty is not responsible for delivery issues due to the third party service being unavailable. You may stop messages from Minty through a third party messaging app at any time through the Minty communications preferences page or by replying STOP to any message.
5.3. Emails
If you provide us with your email address, we will use it to send you updates about your account and promotional offers (cashback or discounts) for third parties that we believe are relevant to you. You can control where and how we send offers at any time in the Communication Preferences page of your account.You may opt-out of these promotional emails at any time by clicking unsubscribe at the bottom of any promotional email. If you unsubscribe from promotional emails we will still send you updates about your accounts via email.
6. Minty Cashback
Minty tracks your awards in the form of points we call Minty Cashback. Each Minty Cashback point is worth $0.01 as cash paid to you, once you’ve accumulated at least 2500 points. We may make other offers to redeem Minty Cashback for other valuable products such as a gift card, and in those cases a point may convert to a different value. You must be enrolled in the Minty Cashback program to earn and receive Minty Cashback. You can earn Minty Cashback multiple ways:
- Purchasing eligible products or services from an eligible brand partner. Awards will be specified in the particular offer being redeemed, and may be either a specific fixed dollar amount or a percentage of your purchase. Purchase percentages are based upon the value of the items purchased excluding taxes, shipping and handling.
- Participating in special Minty events. Minty Cashback for an event will be specified at the event and are always limited to one award per Minty account unless we explicitly say otherwise.
- Participating in a special promotion for Minty or one of its brand partners. Minty Cashback for promotion will be specified in the rules of the promotion and are always limited to one award per Minty account.
You can go online and view your Minty Cashback balance at any time by logging into your Minty account and visiting the account balance page.
Minty will not be able to determine the amount of Minty Cashback you will earn for a purchase until after you make your purchase and the merchant confirms your order to us. If there are specific requirements from the merchant to activate the Minty Cashback offer, such as entering a code or purchasing a specific combination, you must follow the instructions to activate the offer, complete the eligible purchase, and complete any other actions necessary to qualify. If Minty is unable to track your purchase or other necessary actions, or the merchant does not fulfill its obligations, then Minty may not provide Minty Cashback for that transaction. Your account balance will initially reflect your Minty Cashback as “pending” until Minty is able to confirm eligibility with the merchant.
7. Redeeming Minty Cashback
You may request to redeem your Minty Cashback quarterly when your Minty Cashback balance is greater than 2500 points. Pending credit cannot be redeemed and does not count towards the redemption minimum while still pending. We are developing new ways to redeem Minty Cashback and as those become available we’ll update this section to reflect them.
7.1. Check
Minty Cashback can be redeemed once per quarter via check sent to you at the address you provide to us if:
A. You request a payment before the payment request cutoff date for that quarter,
B. We have a valid postal mailing address for your account to send the check, AND
C. The total Minty Cashback points in your account exceeds 2500 at the time of your request.
If you request a redemption of Minty Cashback by check, we will redeem your cash back at a rate of $1.00 per 100 Minty Cashback points.
Payment request cutoff dates are:
• February 1
• May 1
• August 1
• November 1
Checks for valid payment requests are sent approximately two weeks after the payment request cutoff date.
7.2. Other Redemption Methods
Minty is exploring other mechanisms to make redeeming Minty Cashback even easier and more valuable. As we develop new ways to redeem, we’ll update these Terms here.
7.3. General Redemption Terms
You are responsible for any disbursement of Minty Cashback made from your account if you permit another person to access your account.
We reserve the right to refuse to process any redemption due to suspected fraud or unauthorized or illegal activity. If such is the case, we may reject your Minty Cashback redemption request or our customer service department may call you at the phone number you provided to confirm your request. We also reserve the right to cancel any accounts or refuse to deliver to certain addresses due to suspected fraud or unauthorized or illegal activity. We take these measures to protect our customers as well as ourselves from fraud or other unauthorized or illegal activity.
8. Accuracy of Offers
We attempt to be as accurate as possible when describing the offers of our brand partners; however, we do not warrant that the description of the offers, or the brand’s product descriptions or other content available on the Sites or our brand partners’ sites are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. From time to time there may be information on the Sites that is in error, including with respect to descriptions, pricing and availability.
