Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to approve requests to earn rewards?

No. You earn basic discounts just by registering. However, approving requests and helping solve cases unlocks higher tier benefits and better discounts.

Can I lose my tier status?

Tier status is evaluated quarterly. If you’re inactive for 6 months, you may drop to a lower tier. Stay active by responding to requests to maintain your benefits.

How do businesses know I’m a member?

You’ll have a digital member card in your dashboard that shows your tier status. Simply show this to participating businesses to receive your discount.

Can family members share my discounts?

Yes! Your household can benefit from your member discounts. However, each camera owner should have their own account to earn individual rewards.
