Sharp Ambassador Referrer Program Terms and Conditions 

Sharp Ambassador Referrer Program Terms and Conditions

Sharp Insurance (“Sharp” or “We”) offers brand ambassadors (“Referrers” or “You”) the opportunity to participate in its referral program (the “Program”). We reserve the right to amend or terminate the Program at any time, for any reason. The Program is administered by Sharp.

Referrers agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions by participating in the Program. By participating in the Program, Referrers further agree to use the Program in the manner specified in these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions in their entirety, you are not authorized to register as a Referrer or to participate in the Program in any other manner. Referrers may not participate in the Program where doing so would be prohibited by any applicable law or regulations.

We reserve the right to modify or amend at any time these Terms and Conditions and/or the methods through which rewards are earned. We reserve the right to disqualify any Referrers from participation in the Program at any time at our sole discretion, including without limitation if the Referrer does not comply with any of these Terms and Conditions or otherwise fails to comply with any applicable laws.

Part 1: The Program

Brief Program Overview
A Referrer must be registered in our Sharp Ambassador program to receive rewards for successful referrals.

As a Referrer, you will receive a dedicated landing page with a custom URL. You can send your landing page link to friends to get a quote.

If the quote turns into a Qualified Referral, you will be provided with a reward depending on the line of insurance sold. Please refer to Qualified Referral Rewards below for more detail.

The Referrer must use their custom URL to capture referral information. Any referrals outside of this dedicated link will not be eligible for rewards payable to the Referrer.

Eligibility
To participate, you must:

  • Be the age of Majority in your province.
  • Be a legal resident of Canada.
  • Not be an employee of the Sharp Group of Companies.

Qualified Referral

Verification of Qualified Referral
Qualified Referral rewards are subject to verification. Sharp may delay the delivery of a reward for investigation.

All of Sharp’s decisions are final and binding, including decisions as to whether a Qualified Referral or reward is verified.

Part 2: Privacy

By participating in the Program, Referrers must necessarily submit personal information about themselves and any Referred Customer, such as name and e-mail address information, so that SHARP can send communications to the Referred Customer on the Referrers’ behalf. The personal information will be collected, processed and used in accordance with SHARP’s Privacy Statement, which can be found at https://sharpinsurance.ca/privacy-policy/.

Referrers understand that, in addition to the initial communications to Referred Customers, SHARP may also use the personal information to send to Referred Customers additional follow-up communications on behalf of the Referrers to encourage or remind the Referred Customer to complete a purchase.
