Varsity Grind, LLC (“Varsity Grind,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) believes in being clear and transparent about how we may earn compensation from certain links, offers, rewards, promotions, memberships, and third-party services mentioned, displayed, recommended, or made available through our websites, campaigns, landing pages, emails, social media posts, forms, funnels, reward pages, and related marketing materials.
This Affiliate Disclosure explains when Varsity Grind may receive compensation and how that may relate to the hotel savings cards, partner offers, BookVIP Plus membership websites, Marketing Boost-related offers, and other third-party products or services we may reference or promote.
1. Affiliate Relationships
Some links, buttons, forms, reward pages, emails, social media posts, direct messages, landing pages, thank-you pages, or promotional materials provided by Varsity Grind may contain affiliate links, referral links, partner links, tracking links, or other compensated links.
This means Varsity Grind may receive a commission, referral fee, affiliate payment, revenue share, credit, bonus, or other form of compensation if you click a link, claim an offer, redeem a reward, sign up for a membership, upgrade a membership, purchase a product, purchase a service, or otherwise complete a qualifying action through one of these links or offers.
This compensation may be paid by a third-party company, affiliate network, reward provider, membership provider, travel partner, software provider, or other business partner.
2. Hotel Savings Card and BookVIP Plus Commission Disclosure
Varsity Grind may provide, promote, or make available hotel savings cards, travel-related savings offers, vacation-related incentives, promotional travel rewards, or similar benefits as part of certain campaigns.
Some hotel savings cards or related travel offers may be connected to third-party platforms, including BookVIP Plus membership websites or related partner programs.
Varsity Grind may earn a commission if a customer, lead, reward recipient, or user who receives or interacts with a hotel savings card later chooses to upgrade, subscribe, purchase, or become a paid member through a BookVIP Plus membership website or related offer.
This means Varsity Grind may receive financial compensation when a recipient takes certain qualifying actions after receiving or engaging with a hotel savings card or related travel offer.
3. No Extra Cost to You
In many cases, using an affiliate link or partner offer does not increase the price you pay. However, pricing, discounts, membership fees, upgrade options, taxes, fees, redemption requirements, availability, and offer terms are controlled by the third-party provider.
You should review the terms, conditions, pricing, limitations, and cancellation policies of any third-party offer before making a purchase, upgrade, or membership decision.
4. Third-Party Offers and Independent Decisions
Hotel savings cards, travel offers, partner promotions, BookVIP Plus membership offers, Marketing Boost-related offers, software offers, affiliate offers, and other third-party products or services are provided by third parties, not by Varsity Grind unless expressly stated otherwise.
Varsity Grind does not control third-party pricing, membership terms, upgrade terms, redemption rules, availability, blackout dates, fees, customer support, cancellation policies, user experience, or fulfillment.
You are responsible for reviewing all third-party terms before claiming, redeeming, purchasing, upgrading, or subscribing to any offer.
Your decision to use, purchase, upgrade, redeem, or subscribe to a third-party offer is voluntary.
5. Recommendations and Promotional Content
Varsity Grind may recommend, mention, feature, promote, or provide access to certain third-party products, services, rewards, memberships, platforms, or offers because we believe they may be useful, relevant, or valuable for a particular campaign or audience.
However, affiliate compensation may influence which offers are shown, how offers are presented, or which partners are included in a campaign.
We aim to provide accurate and honest information, but we do not guarantee that any third-party offer will be suitable for every person, business, customer, lead, or campaign participant.
6. Rewards Are Not Payment for Reviews
Varsity Grind does not provide hotel savings cards, rewards, incentives, or partner offers in exchange for positive reviews, favorable testimonials, five-star ratings, or public endorsements.
If a reward, incentive, or benefit is offered as part of a campaign, it must not be conditioned on leaving a positive review, favorable review, or any specific type of review.
Any review, testimonial, feedback, or endorsement should reflect the honest opinion and actual experience of the person providing it.
7. Client Campaigns and Business Partners
Varsity Grind may create or manage campaigns for business clients that include third-party rewards, hotel savings cards, affiliate offers, referral links, partner offers, or promotional incentives.
In those cases, Varsity Grind may receive compensation from third-party providers, affiliate programs, business partners, or reward-related programs when a qualifying action occurs.
Business clients are responsible for reviewing and approving campaign language, offer terms, customer disclosures, and customer-facing promotions related to their own campaigns.
8. No Guarantee of Results, Savings, or Availability
Varsity Grind does not guarantee that any person will receive a specific amount of savings, successfully redeem a travel offer, find available travel dates, qualify for a membership offer, receive a particular benefit, or be satisfied with a third-party product or service.
All third-party rewards, memberships, upgrades, savings cards, travel offers, affiliate offers, and partner promotions are subject to the terms, restrictions, limitations, and availability set by the third-party provider.
