When purchasing a Top Tier Subscription, you can choose from different periods as set out on the Site and your Top Tier Subscription will continue for that term unless cancelled in accordance with clause 8(e).
Switching your Subscription
We want to offer our customers great flexibility. If, part way through your Subscription, you wish to switch to any of the other liquor Subscriptions of equal value that we have on offer, you may request to do so by contacting our customer service team. You will be permitted to switch to the same type of Subscription (whether Monthly Subscription, Annual Subscription or Top Tier Subscription).

- You are responsible for reviewing the pricing schedule, inclusions and exclusions associated with your Subscription.
General
a) Delivery costs are displayed separately from the Price for One-Off Purchases. The Subscription Fee includes delivery fees.

The notice may be provided at any time via email, text message or via notification to your account (and you may change your notification preferences in your account page). If you do not agree to the price change, you may cancel your Subscription in accordance with the ‘Cancellation’ clause.
f) If you are a Northern Territory resident or ordering products for delivery to the Northern Territory, the listing of a product on the Site does not constitute an offer to sell that product to you for that price. Prior to any offer or acceptance, additional price checks will be completed and the price of the product may increase to ensure compliance with the Northern Territory Minimum Unit Price Legislation, which may change the final price calculation for your order.
6. Promotions
a) We may from time to time issue promotional discount codes (via text message, email, or other communication methods) for certain products on the Site. To claim the discount, you must enter the promotional discount code at the time of submitting your order through the Site. The conditions of use relating to promotional discount codes will be specified on the Site at the time they are issued. If you have an active Subscription (that is, a Subscription that is not paused or cancelled), you may also be entitled to member-only pricing for One-Off Purchases, and such pricing will be displayed when you checkout.
You may receive online offers and promotions which include a promotional or coupon code (Code) for use when shopping at the Website. It is your responsibility to ensure that the Code is valid, and that you enter the Code at the time of making your purchase online. We cannot apply the Code retrospectively once you have submitted your Order. Terms and conditions will apply to the use of the offer or promotion. Please read these carefully to make sure you can take proper advantage of these offers. Any Code is non-transferable and, unless expressly stated, may not be used in conjunction with any other offers. If your code is lost or stolen it will not be reissued.

Where you elect to upgrade and you have an Annual Subscription, your payment method will be charged the price difference.
c) We may also from time to time run competitions on the Site or associated social media platforms. Such competitions are subject to terms and conditions which will be made available on the Site at the time of the competition.

a) Each time you make a purchase while on an active Subscription (including as the recipient of a gift Subscription), you receive points which are credited to your account. When you accumulate a certain number of points, you can redeem these for future purchases.
b) You may check your points balance on your account page. We may reverse points where a refund is given and we may correct points which have been awarded by mistake.

Our customer service team will confirm the pause in writing. If you pause your Subscription less than 3 business days prior to the next Billing Date, we will endeavour to initiate your pause but cannot promise that this will be possible, and if the pause cannot be initiated, you will be charged the Subscription Fee on the next Billing Date and your Subscription will be paused effective from the following billing cycle.
