If a member returns purchased items, the Points earned by those items will be deducted from the member’s Point total.
From time to time, SALOMON, in its sole discretion, may change, discontinue, or add interactions by which members can earn Points and the number of Points earned, with or without prior notification to members.
Members must be logged into their Salomon.com account to receive eligible Points for their actions. SALOMON reserves the right to retrospectively credit Points for interactions where a member was not logged in, provided sufficient proof is provided.
Existing Salomon.com account holders can start earning Points as soon as the Program is launched. New members will earn Points from the date they create a Salomon.com account. Normally, no prior transactions or interactions will be eligible for Points. Please allow approximately one week from the date your order shipped for Points to be credited to your account.
Member Benefits are not available to Amer Sports Pro Club /Pro Deal members.
Expiration of Points
All Points earned by members and credited to their account will expire at the end of January of the next following calendar year in which they were earned unless Salomon explicitly states otherwise. For example, points earned in December 2022, expire January 31, 2023, and likewise points earned in January 2023, expire on January 31, 2024. Points are not transferrable, have no cash value, and cannot be exchanged for cash.
Redeeming Points
In order to redeem Points, a member must be logged into their Salomon.com account at the time of purchase. At checkout, a member’s available Points will be displayed and the member may elect to redeem Points. If a member elects to redeem Points, the applicable Points will be converted into redemption dollars and the value of the redemption dollars will be deducted from the total price of the Member’s purchase. Points are converted into redemption dollars as follows: 300 points = $10 (non-cash value).

You may learn more about the American Arbitration Association and its rules for arbitration by visiting www.adr.org or by calling 800-778-7879. Since this warranty concerns a transaction in interstate or international commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act will apply.
To the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, the filing fees to begin and carry out arbitration will be shared between you and Salomon, but in no event will your fees ever exceed the amount allowable by the American Arbitration Association, at which point Salomon will cover all additional administrative fees and expenses. Salomon waives its right to recover attorneys’ fees in connection with any arbitration under these Terms of Use. If you are the prevailing party in an arbitration to which the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes applies, then you are entitled to recover attorneys’ fees as the arbitrator may determine.
The dispute will be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, USA. The place of arbitration will be Cook County, Illinois, or your county of residence (if in the United States). The arbitrator will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing party's actual damages, except as may be required by statute. The arbitrator will not award consequential damages, and any award will be limited to monetary damages and will include no equitable relief, injunction, or direction to any party other than the direction to pay a monetary amount. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator will be binding and final, except for any right of appeal provided by the Federal Arbitration Act, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Except as may be required by law, neither you nor Salomon nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration under this warranty without the prior written consent of you and Salomon.
TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION, IN COURT, OR OTHERWISE, WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. SALOMON AND YOU AGREE THAT NO PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED AS A CLASS ACTION, A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR IN ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH EITHER PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY.
