Terms & Conditions
Bath Go is a mobile application and website that allows customers to identify themselves as Bath Go Scheme members and accumulate loyalty points as they shop in our outlets, allowing them to use accumulated points as currency for purchases in any of our participating outlets at a rate of 1p per point. Furthermore, Bath Go app users will be able to receive and redeem special offers, vouchers and participate in loyalty schemes such as stamp cards for multiple purchases to redeem free products, gifts and enter in prize draws. The app allows customers to top up their BathGo cashless purse using a credit or debit card and spend the credit at participating outlets around the University of Bath campus.

Only one Bath Go account is permitted per user. If we identify that you are holding two or more Bath Go accounts, we may merge them into one account at our discretion.
We retain the right to remove or suspend your account, vouchers or points accrued if we determine you have been abusing the scheme or associated offers.
THE APP
The App is free of charge and can be downloaded from your usual app provider. Certain mobile devices may not support the App, in which case you will not be able to use it. You will need to register your mobile device against your Account before the App can be used. You can use the App to create a new Account or you can register the App against your existing Account. If you change mobile device, you will need to log into your account on the new device on the App/Website before being able to access your information. The App is only available with an internet connection and all charges incurred during your use of the App are subject to your agreed terms and conditions with your internet or mobile provider.
Where you choose or are provided with a user identification code, username and/or password, you should treat this information as confidential. Each registration is for a single user only. We reserve the right to disable any identification or password, chosen or allocated, at any time, if in our reasonable opinion we believe you have failed to comply with these terms and conditions. You are responsible for the security of any passwords issued to you.
The App may be suspended temporarily or permanently and without notice in case of system failure, maintenance, or repair or for other reasons beyond our control. We reserve the right to make changes to the App from time to time, to include the removal, modification and/or variation of any elements, features or functions of the App.
Other than personal information covered under our Privacy Notice/Policy, any material you post to the App (where this is possible) shall not be confidential. We shall be free to copy, disclose, distribute, incorporate and otherwise use any material and data, images, sounds, test and other material embodied in the posting or upload for any purpose. You must not post any material on the App that is threatening, offensive, discriminatory, blasphemous, in breach of confidence or privacy or any material that could cause any harm to the App through the use of viruses, logic bombs, malicious software, worms or any similar technical misuse of the App. Any misuse shall be disclosed to law enforcement authorities at our discretion.
IMPORTANT POINTS TO NOTE IN RELATION TO YOUR APP
You may delete your App at any time but if you do so, you may forfeit the right to any points that have accumulated on your Account that have not been used. We may ask you to delete the App in accordance with our instructions.
If your smartphone with the App is lost or stolen, you must notify us of this via the email address set out below in paragraph 5 (General). We will not be liable for any resulting loss of points or Vouchers.
We reserve the right to refuse to redeem any points or Vouchers where the device has (or the balance of points has or is suspected to have) been acquired via theft, fraud or any other means that are not in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.
3. YOUR LOYALTY POINTS
Loyalty points can be accrued and redeemed against certain purchases made at the Outlets. We reserve the right to restrict the products against which loyalty points may be redeemed at our discretion. Please ask a member of the staff at the Outlets for more information. The points will be earned at the time of purchase, provided the App is presented at the point of sale. If you forget your device with the App we cannot add points to your Account at a later date. Points will accrue on the entire transaction (provided no excluded items are being purchased). Points can only be collected against purchases where a till and card reader is present. An Account can hold an unlimited number of loyalty points. You can check how many points you have and redeem points at an Outlet. You can also check the number of loyalty points you have collected by visiting the App and/or the Website. You will earn a specific number of loyalty points for each complete pound (£1) spent. We may, however, change the number of points you can collect and will display notices at the Outlets, should that happen. You will only be able to redeem your loyalty points against purchases made at the Outlets, each point has a redemption value of 1 pence (1p). The number of points used will be deducted from your Account. If you have a query regarding the number of points on your Account, we may require you to provide receipts as proof of purchase to back up any claim. If the evidence is satisfactory (to us), we will change the points allocated to the applicable Account to reflect the correct position. We will not exchange points for cash and reserve the right to remove from your Account any points that have not been redeemed for over 12 months. We retain the right to cancel, withdraw or alter the loyalty point scheme at any time.
The BathGO Loyalty scheme is for personal use only. Business use is strictly prohibited, and we reserve the right at point of purchase or retrospectively to determine what constitutes a business use.
Vouchers
When you have eligible vouchers you will be able to redeem them with a purchase by requesting to do so from a member of staff or redeeming them at self-service till points. You can set vouchers to be automatically redeemed with the next eligible purchase via the app. Expired vouchers will be removed from your account and you will be notified when you have received new ones in line with your notification settings.
Vouchers are nonrefundable and nontransferable. We will not exchange vouchers or other discount codes for cash and reserve the right to withdraw vouchers and discounts at any time.
4. CASHLESS SYSTEM
Your App may also be used for the Bath Go Cashless System. To use the App for the Cashless System, the App will need to be activated for this purpose prior to use by visiting the Website. The Bath Go purse can be topped up online by visiting the Website or navigating through the App. You can check your balance online via your Account or at the Outlet. There is also the ability to auto top up your Account from a nominated credit or debit card. You can choose the minimum and top up values on your Account, and the nominated credit or debit card will be charged automatically back to the top up value when the balance on your Account falls below the minimum value. The transaction total will be deducted from the balance on your Account. By using the Cashless System, you will still automatically accrue loyalty points on your Account on valid purchases made.
You can cancel your Cashless Account by emailing BathGoHelp@groups.bath.ac.uk. However, if you do so, you will forfeit any remaining monies on your Card where your balance is less than £10. If your balance is over £10, please contact us at BathGoHelp@groups.bath.ac.uk for a refund. Please note that refunds will be subject to a £10 administration fee which will be deducted from the remaining balance on your Card. Please note this does not apply to any other wallets/purses available within the Bath Go app and they are subject to their own Terms and Conditions – see below for separate T&Cs for Eat & Drink.
