How the Program Works
- Earning Points. Once you have become a Member, you may earn points by purchasing Qualifying Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa Products from the Site. “Qualifying Mauna Loa Products”or “Qualifying Hawaiian Host Products” are regularly priced merchandise only and exclude gift cards, taxes, discounts, donations, shipping and delivery fees, and other excluded charges specified by us from time-to-time. Members receive one (1) point per dollar spent on Qualifying Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa Products. You may also earn points by performing certain actions such as leaving a review, adding photos or videos to a review, sharing certain content pertaining to Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa through your social media accounts (i.e., Facebook, Instagram), signing up for texts, and for certain events, such as your birthday (if you provide us with you date of birth), and certain other actions or events specified by us from time-to-time. For your purchase to qualify to earn points, you must be signed into your Member account at the time of purchase. All points earned from purchases on the Site are pending until your order ships, at which time the points are fully matured and capable of redemption. Only purchases through the Site are eligible for points. Members will not receive points or benefits from purchases made at retailers. Purchases outside of the United States are not eligible for points.
- No Cash Value. There are no enrollment, participation, or membership fees associated with the Program. Points accrued in connection with the Program are promotional, have no cash value, and cannot be redeemed for cash, cash equivalent, or credit.
-
The Program is a tier-based program determined by the number of points a Member has earned cumulatively on Qualifying Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa Products and through qualifying activities, beginning on the date of enrollment in the Program. There are three tiers associated with the Program:
- Māmaka Kaiao (Seed): earn 0-199 points. When you enroll in the Program, you will be placed in the Māmaka Kaiao (Seed) tier and earn 10 points for enrollment. You will also be eligible to earn 20 points on your birthday.
- Lā’au O’pio (Young Plant): earn 300-549 points. When you earn 300 points within a year, you will be moved to the Lā’au O’pio (Young Plant) tier and earn, on a one-time only basis, 50 points for entering the Lā’au O’pio (Young Plant) tier. You will continue to be eligible to earn 20 points on your birthday.
- Kumulā’au (Tree): earn 550 or more points. When you earn 550 points within a year, you will be moved to the Kumulā’au (Tree) tier and earn, on a one-time basis, 100 points for entering the Kumulā’au (Tree) tier. As a member of the Kumulā’au (Tree) tier, you will be eligible to earn double points on certain products during certain time periods as determined by Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa from time-to-time.
- Reward Redemption. Points are redeemable toward purchases of Qualifying Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa Products on the Site (a “Reward Redemption”). The number of points required for a Reward Redemption is determined by Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa in its sole discretion and may be changed without prior notice to you. You may view how many points you have accumulated by signing into your Member account. Points used for a Reward Redemption will be deducted from the total points available in your Member account. Members cannot use more points than what they currently have in their account. You must be logged in to your Member account and must be in good standing in the Program to qualify for a Reward Redemption. Reward Redemptions are available only on the Site. Qualifying Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa Product quantities may be limited, and Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa cannot guarantee the availability of any product at any time. The products available through Reward Redemptions are intended for your personal use only. You may not sell or resell any such products. Reward Redemptions cannot be combined with any other coupon, discount, or promotion, unless otherwise expressly indicated by Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa. Reward Redemptions from points believed to have been bartered, sold, exchanged, or issued fraudulently, or issued to someone other than the eligible Member, will be void and will not be honored. If part or all of a Reward Redemption is cancelled or voided or if the Reward Redemption is obtained through fraudulent or other activity that violates these Program Terms, points credited to your account will be decreased or reversed. Products obtained through Reward Redemptions cannot be exchanged or returned for points, another product, or a monetary refund. We reserve the right, without notice, to cancel or reduce the quantity of any order to be filled and/or any products or services to be provided to you that we believe, in our sole discretion, may result in the violation of these Program Terms.
- Points are non-transferable and you have no property rights in or to points, Reward Redemptions, or other Program benefits.
- Taxes. Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa cannot and does not offer tax-related advice. This section is provided for information purposes only and is not intended to constitute tax advice. Points, Reward Redemptions, and other Program benefits may be subject to income or other taxes. You are responsible for determining and fulfilling your obligations under applicable laws to report and remit any applicable taxes. Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa are not responsible for withholding, collecting, reporting, or remitting any taxes arising from your participation in the Program including, without limitation, earning points and Reward Redemptions.
- Inactive Members. Without notice to you, Hawaiian Host and Mauna Loa reserves the right to unregister and make ineligible for Reward Redemptions or the Program any Member that has been inactive for two (2) consecutive years. Inactivity is defined as no points earned during such two (2) consecutive year period. In the event that your Member account is unregistered or rendered inactive, all accrued points in your account are void.

Warranty Disclaimer
- THE PROGRAM is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranty or condition of any kind. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE EXCLUDE ALL CONDITIONS, WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND OTHER TERMS, WHICH MAY APPLY TO THE PROGRAM, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THE RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PROGRAM AND ALL INFORMATION AND CONTENT provided through the program.
- No information or advice obtained through the Program, or affirmation by us, by words or actions, shall constitute a warranty.

-
Limitation of Liability
- IN NO EVENT SHALL THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, ANY BREACH OF SECURITY, OR LOST DATA, PERSONAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE) ARISING FROM, RELATING TO, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE PROGRAM OR YOUR PARTICIPATION THEREIN OR THESE PROGRAM TERMS, ARISING AND WHETHER FRAMED IN CONTRACT OR TORT, REGARDLESS OF THE NEGLIGENCE (EITHER ACTIVE, AFFIRMATIVE, SOLE, OR CONCURRENT) OF HAWAIIAN HOST AND Mauna Loa, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
- Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction with the Program, including, without limitation, content or products offered through the Program, is to stop participating in the Program. Such limitation shall also apply with respect to damages incurred by reason of services or products received through or advertised in connection with the Program, as well as by reason of any information or advice received through or advertised in connection with the Program.
- In the event the foregoing exclusion of liability is determined, in whole or in part, to be invalid or unenforceable, then the Indemnified Parties’ liability arising in connection with the Service or under these Terms whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, shall not exceed, under any circumstances, the greater of: (i) the total amount paid for goods in the preceding 30 days, or (ii) One Hundred Dollars ($100). You agree that any claim or cause of action arising under these Program Terms, your participation in the Program, or your use of Reward Redemptions or other benefits must be brought within one year after such claim or cause of action arises or be forever barred.
- THE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMER IN THIS SECTION DO NOT PURPORT TO LIMIT LIABILITY OR ALTER YOUR RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. BECAUSE SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF OR THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, IN SUCH STATES OR JURISDICTIONS, HAWAIIAN HOST AND MAUNA LOA’S LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. THIS PROVISION SHALL HAVE NO EFFECT ON HAWAIIAN HOST AND MAUNA LOA’S CHOICE OF LAW PROVISION SET FORTH BELOW.
- If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states, in part “a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release that, if known by him or her would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”
