IV. MARATHON ARCO REWARDS OVERVIEW
Marathon ARCO Rewards is a customer loyalty program where members earn and redeem rewards at participating Marathon or ARCO locations. Members that participate in Marathon ARCO Rewards can earn rewards on fuel or qualifying products or services in-store or with a third-party partner. Members earn $0.05 of Marathon ARCO Rewards for every 1 gallon of fuel purchased. Members can redeem Marathon ARCO Rewards in the app using vouchers, which are available in various cents per gallon savings offers which may be available both in the app and at the pump. Please see section IV Part B for more redemption details. Marathon may change the increments made available for vouchers at its discretion. From time-to-time, Marathon or its partners may offer qualifying events and other ways to earn additional Marathon ARCO Rewards (e.g., sweepstakes, contests, giveaways, etc.). Additional opportunities to earn Marathon ARCO Rewards may be limited based on geographic region and may vary from location-to-location.
NOTE: MARATHON ARCO REWARDS IS NOT THE EQUIVALENT OF U.S. OR OTHER CURRENCY. Marathon ARCO Rewards can only be redeemed for fuel purchases at qualifying Marathon or ARCO locations or other specified redemption opportunities. Marathon ARCO Rewards may not be converted to U.S. or any other currency.
A. EARNING MARATHON ARCO REWARDS
1. QUALIFYING PURCHASES OR EVENTS
You can earn $0.05 of Marathon ARCO Rewards for each purchase of 1 gallon of Marathon or ARCO branded fuel, a purchase of a qualifying product or service in-store or through a third-party partner, or other qualifying promotion or event. Marathon ARCO Rewards will be offered only on whole gallon amounts of fuel and will round down to the nearest gallon (e.g., 20.99 gallons of fuel pumped earns $1.00 of Marathon ARCO Rewards). Even on purchases where you redeem a Marathon ARCO Rewards voucher, you are rewarded for every whole gallon that you pump.
Not all products and services or combination of products and services will qualify for Marathon ARCO Rewards. Please log onto marathonrewards.com or the Marathon ARCO Rewards app for the latest earning opportunities. Not all participating Marathon or ARCO locations will have the same qualifying products or services available to earn Marathon ARCO Rewards. Some Marathon ARCO Reward opportunities will only be available through the app or website at marathonrewards.com and may include participating Marathon ARCO Rewards third-party partners.
Qualifying products, services, or promotions/events are subject to change at any time, with or without notice.
2. HOW MARATHON ARCO REWARDS ARE CREDITED OR DEBITED TO YOUR ACCOUNT
For a qualifying purchase or service to count towards your Marathon ARCO Rewards account, you must enter the mobile phone number associated with the account at the pump or inside at the point of sale system at participating Marathon or ARCO locations prior to completing the transaction. Special offers, promotions, or events through Marathon or its partners may have specific instructions on how to receive Marathon ARCO Rewards. Please see the special offer, promotion, or event for details.
Marathon ARCO Rewards will appear in your account shortly after a qualifying purchase or earning promotion/event. It may take longer for the Marathon ARCO Rewards to appear in your account if a Marathon ARCO Reward earning opportunity is through a third-party partner’s program. Returned items or price adjustments will cause a corresponding debit or credit to the amount of Marathon ARCO Rewards available in your account.
You will not earn Marathon ARCO Rewards for purchases prior to the first time that you enter your mobile phone number at the fuel pump or point of sale system or otherwise enroll in Marathon ARCO Rewards.
If you forget to enter in your mobile phone number prior to a fuel or other qualifying purchase, contact Marathon ARCO Rewards Support at marathonrewards.com for assistance. Marathon may not accept purchases over thirty days old.
B. REDEEMING MARATHON ARCO REWARDS
Marathon ARCO Rewards can only be redeemed for fuel purchases at participating Marathon or ARCO locations. Additional redemption opportunities may occur from time-to-time.
Prior to fueling, you can redeem a Marathon ARCO Rewards voucher by logging in at marathonrewards.com or downloading the voucher on the app. You will then select the amount of Marathon ARCO Rewards that you would like to redeem. Marathon ARCO Rewards can currently be redeemed in the cents per gallon savings offers per the breakdown below. The next time that you enter your mobile phone number at the fuel pump at a participating Marathon or ARCO location, your Marathon ARCO Rewards voucher or purchased cents per gallon off offer will be applied toward your purchase.
If you are purchasing fuel while paying at the pump, have a Marathon ARCO Rewards balance greater than $2 and have not previously redeemed within the app as described above, the pump may ask if you would like to use your balance to purchase a cents per gallon savings offer. Each cents per gallon off offer assumes that you will complete a 20-gallon fill-up so that, for instance, if you had a balance of $2 in Rewards, you would be offered the opportunity to save 10 cents per gallon on the fill-up in exchange for the $2 in Rewards. Cents per gallon savings offers are made available in the following increments, for redemption of the corresponding Rewards balance:
10 cents per gallon for $2 in Rewards (minimum Rewards balance of $2)
25 cents per gallon for $5 in Rewards (minimum Rewards balance of $5)
50 cents per gallon for $10 in Rewards (minimum Rewards balance of $10)
1 dollar per gallon for $20 in Rewards (minimum Rewards balance of $20)
Note: You must use a redeemed Marathon ARCO Rewards voucher within 30 days of activation, or the voucher will expire, and the voucher amount will return to your Marathon ARCO Rewards account. If you do not use the full voucher amount in one purchase, the remaining balance will be returned to your account in the form of Rewards. If you activate a cents per gallon off offer, it will be valid for an “up to” gallon amount. If you purchase less than the “up to” gallon amount, the unused portion of the reward will be returned to your account. For example, if you redeem 10 cents off per gallon for $2.00 in Rewards, for up to 20 gallons and only pump 10 gallons of fuel, you receive $1.00 back into your account ($0.10/gallon x 10 gallons). This returned amount would be in addition to any potential earnings on the same transaction.
C. SWEEPSTAKES, GIVEAWAYS, AND OTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO WIN MARATHON ARCO REWARDS
You agree that when you provide your mobile phone number for any purchase at a participating Marathon location, ARCO location, or third-party partner organization, you may be entered into a sweepstakes, giveaway, or other opportunity to win Marathon ARCO Rewards. You agree to abide by the official rules of any sweepstakes, giveaway, or other opportunity to win Marathon ARCO Rewards. See those official rules for details and restrictions.

VIII. ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION AND JURY WAIVER
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS RIGHTS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE. IT PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF MOST DISPUTES THROUGH ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF COURT TRIALS AND CLASS ACTIONS. ARBITRATION IS MORE INFORMAL THAN A LAWSUIT IN COURT, USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY, AND DISCOVERY IS MORE LIMITED. ARBITRATION IS FINAL AND BINDING AND SUBJECT TO ONLY VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THE MARATHON ARCO REWARDS PROGRAM TERMS.
Binding Arbitration: This provision is intended to be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes, claims, or controversies (regardless of legal theory or source of law issue) arising out of or relating to the Marathon ARCO Rewards Program Terms and your access to or participation in Marathon ARCO Rewards. Any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to the Marathon ARCO Rewards Program Terms or Marathon ARCO Rewards (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, common law, or any other legal theory) will be resolved by binding arbitration, except that either you or Marathon may take claims to small claims court if the claims or demands qualify for hearing by such a court.
Arbitration Procedures:
For all disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first send a written description of your claim to Marathon ARCO Rewards Support at support@marathonrewards.com or 1-855-920-3988 to allow Marathon an opportunity to work with you to resolve the dispute. You and Marathon each agree to negotiate your claim in good faith. You may request arbitration if your claim or dispute cannot be resolved within sixty days.
The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted by, and in accordance with, the rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), including the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by the Marathon ARCO Rewards Program Terms. The AAA Rules and information about arbitration and fees are available online at www.adr.org. You and Marathon agree that the Marathon ARCO Rewards Program Terms evidence a transaction in interstate commerce and that this arbitration provision will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law and will not be governed by state law. Any arbitration will be held in Findlay, Ohio or virtually, if mutually agreed. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. There shall be three arbitrators selected from the AAA’s list of approved arbitrators, agreed to by the parties within thirty days of receipt by respondent of the request for arbitration or, in default of such agreement, by the AAA. Each party shall bear the portion of any deposit, advance, or other expense as determined by the arbitrator.
You and Marathon agree that discovery will be limited to be cost-effective and proportionate to the claim, and that the cost of discovery shall be borne by the party requesting such discovery. Except as provided below, the arbitrators may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim, and must follow and enforce the Marathon ARCO Rewards Program Terms as a court would. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive, consequential, or liquidated damages of any kind. In all arbitrations, the arbitrator must give effect to applicable statutes of limitations.
The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final, non-reviewable, and binding on the parties. Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor Marathon may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction.
Class Action Waiver and Jury Waiver: You and Marathon each agree that any proceeding, whether in arbitration or in court, will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If a court or arbitrator determines in an action between you and Marathon that this class action waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration agreement will be void as to you. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, you and Marathon each waive any right to a jury trial and consent to the jurisdiction of the courts and laws of the State of Ohio.
IX. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
YOU AGREE TO LIMIT MARATHON AND MARATHON’S OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PARTNERS, LICENSORS, AND AGENTS’ ENTIRE LIABILITY, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF CAUSE OF ACTION, DEMAND, OR CLAIM, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT OR TORT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, SUCH THAT LIABILITY SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE SPECIFIC TRANSACTION GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. FURTHER, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY OF THE FOREGOING PERSONS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES SUFFERED IN CONNECTION WITH MARATHON ARCO REWARDS OR YOUR USE THEREOF HOWEVER CAUSED AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF CAUSE OF ACTION, DEMAND OR CLAIM, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT OR TORT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, AND EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGES ARE FORESEEABLE OR ANY OF THE FOREGOING PERSONS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
X. INDEMNITY
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Marathon and Marathon’s officers, directors, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, licensors, agents, and each of them from and against any action, proceeding, loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, cost or expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, experts' fees, and court costs, arising out of or relating to your participation in Marathon ARCO Rewards, the Marathon ARCO Rewards Program Terms, or from any claim or demand made against any of them by any third party due to or arising out of your use of Marathon ARCO Rewards or the Marathon ARCO Rewards Program Terms.
By providing your phone number to Marathon, you certify, warrant and represent that the telephone number you have provided is your contact number and not someone else’s. You represent that you are permitted to receive SMS/MMS messages at the telephone number you have provided. You agree to promptly alert Marathon whenever you stop using a telephone number. In the event that you provide a phone number for which you do not have authority to provide consent, you agree to defend and indemnify Marathon against any claims relating to SMS/MMS messages that Marathon may make to any such phone number based on the consent that you have provided to receive such SMS/MMS messages.
