SMS MESSAGES

When completing a purchase on fortpointbeer.com, the Customer may consent to Fort Point using the Customer’s phone number for direct marketing purposes.

The Customer may opt out of receiving SMS marketing communications by texting “STOP” in reply back to an SMS communication from Fort Point, or by emailing Fort Point at info@fortpointbeer.com and requesting to be unsubscribed from all or part of Fort Point’s marketing communications.

Regardless of whether the Customer opts out of receiving direct marketing communications, by maintaining their account or transacting with Fort Point, the Customer gives Fort Point permission to send the Customer non-commercial, transactional emails and SMS communications. These include, for example, messages relating to the Customer’s account, transactions, delivery updates, or important information relating to products the Customer has purchased, such as recall notices.

A Qualified Referral is defined as a purchase made on www.fortpointbeer.com by a person (a "Referred Customer") who arrives at our website by clicking your Fort Point referral program link. You are limited to one Qualified Referral for each Referred Customer; in other words, additional/repeat purchases made by a Referred Customer are not counted as additional Qualified Referrals.
  2. Referred Customer. The Referred Customer and the Referrer cannot be the same person (for example, by using a different email address). The Referred Customer must also be a first time customer.
  3. Reward Payments. The Referred Customer will receive a discount code for rewards equal to $10, redeemable on their first purchase only and where the total for the placed order is over $40 inclusive of tax and shipping. Once the Referred Customer has placed their first order and it has ben fulfilled, the Referrer will receive a discount code for rewards equal to $10 to be used on a future purchase on fortpointbeer.com.

  5. No Spam. You must comply with all up-to-date “SPAM” laws. For example, emails sent out to refer a customer must be created and distributed in a personal manner and bulk email distribution is discouraged. Any distribution of your referral link that could constitute unsolicited commercial email or "spam" under any applicable law or regulation is prohibited and will be grounds for exclusion from Fort Point’s Referral program.
  6. Right to Close Accounts. Fort Point reserves the right to close the Fort Point Direct account(s) of any Referrer and/or Referred Customer and to request proper payment if the Referrer and/or Referred Customer attempts to use the Fort Point Referral program in a questionable manner or breaches any of these Terms & Conditions or is in violation of any law, statute or governmental regulation.
