Shot Bonus — Terms and Conditions (Membership & Rewards)
Effective date: 2026-09-27. Operator: The Tactical Nation, Inc. Notices: alerts@thetacticalnation.com.
Brand site: shotbonus.com
These Terms and Conditions govern membership, rewards, billing, content submissions (including competition posts and claim posts), and related commercial features of Shot Bonus, operated by The Tactical Nation, Inc (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
Site browsing is also subject to the Shot Bonus Terms of Use and Privacy Notice. For membership, rewards, and billing, these Terms and Conditions control.
Voice note: Shot Bonus is built like support for a sponsored athlete — wear partner brands, share eligible activity, get rewarded. Legal copy uses competition post and claim post (not other informal slogans).

2. Acceptance
By creating an account, starting a Membership, submitting a competition post or claim post, or redeeming Rewards, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use Shot Bonus commercial features.
3. Eligibility
3.1 You must be at least eighteen (18) years old (or older if required where you live) and have legal capacity.
3.2 Membership and Rewards may be limited by geography. Primary audience framing is US consumer marketing/rewards; members in South Africa and elsewhere may also participate where we enable access. We may geo-restrict features.
3.3 You must provide accurate identity and contact information. One natural person per Member account unless we approve otherwise. We may require identity verification before paying or shipping Rewards.
3.4 Employees, contractors, and agents of the Company may be excluded from certain promotions as stated in promotion rules.
4. Accounts
4.1 Keep your login credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account. Report unauthorised use to alerts@thetacticalnation.com.
4.2 We may suspend or terminate accounts for fraud, abuse, chargebacks in bad faith, or prohibited conduct.
5. Membership plans
5.1 Plan features, pricing, and billing intervals are shown at checkout or on the plan page and may change on renewal with notice.
5.2 Membership is personal and non-transferable except as we allow in writing.
5.3 We may offer trials or promos. Unless stated otherwise, unused trial benefits expire when the trial ends.
6. Billing; Stripe; cancellation; refunds
6.1 Paid Memberships are billed in advance on a recurring basis until cancelled. Currency is typically USD unless checkout shows otherwise.
6.2 Payments are processed by Stripe (or a successor processor). Stripe’s terms and privacy notice also apply to payment data. Merchant-of-record / Stripe account legal name: The Tactical Nation, Inc. We do not store full card numbers when Stripe tokenises them.
6.3 You authorise us and Stripe to charge your payment method for Membership fees, taxes, and any purchasable add-ons you select.
6.4 Cancel: Cancel anytime via account settings or by emailing alerts@thetacticalnation.com before the next renewal. Cancellation stops future renewals; you generally retain access until the end of the paid period.
6.5 Refunds: Except where required by law (including applicable US state or South African consumer protections), Membership fees are non-refundable once a billing period starts. If we cancel for convenience (not for your breach), we will refund a pro-rata portion of unused prepaid fees.
6.6 Failed payments may result in retry attempts, suspension, or termination. You remain responsible for amounts due.
6.7 Chargebacks: contact us first to resolve billing issues. Repeated abusive chargebacks may lead to permanent exclusion.
7. Rewards program; eligibility
7.1 Rewards are offered under program rules we publish in-product or in promotion terms. Rules may specify eligible brands, proof requirements, caps, blackout dates, and verification steps.
7.2 No purchase necessary for some promotions where legally required; Membership may still be required for other features — check each promotion.
7.3 Rewards have no cash value except where we expressly offer cash or cash-equivalent redemption. Points/credits are not property and may be adjusted for error, fraud, or program changes.
7.4 We may substitute Rewards of equal or greater approximate value if fulfilment becomes impractical.
7.5 You are solely responsible for any taxes arising from Rewards. Tax forms (e.g. US Form 1099 or South African equivalents): [UNKNOWN — confirm thresholds and issuer].
7.6 Rewards may be void where prohibited. Shipping of physical Rewards may be limited to supported countries.
8. Competition posts; claim posts; content submissions
8.1 You may submit photos, video, captions, and related media as competition posts or claim posts as invited by the Platform.
8.2 You represent that you own or have rights to submit the content; that it is accurate for the claim you make; that it does not infringe others’ rights; and that depicted persons (if any) have consented where required.
8.3 Licence: You grant the Company a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to host, use, reproduce, modify (for formatting), publicly display, and distribute your submissions to operate Shot Bonus, verify claims, market the program, and feature Members (including in social and partner channels), unless a promotion states a narrower licence. You may request takedown of marketing use by emailing alerts@thetacticalnation.com (verification copies may still be retained).
8.4 We may reject or remove submissions that violate rules, appear fraudulent, unsafe, unlawful, or off-brand.
8.5 Do not submit content that reveals others’ sensitive personal information without authority.
9. Brand partners; sponsored-athlete style participation
9.1 Wearing or featuring Brand partners as part of eligible activity does not make you an employee or agent of the Brand partner or of the Company.
9.2 You must comply with Brand partner trademark guidelines we communicate and must not disparage partners in claim materials in a way that violates promotion rules.
9.3 Partner offers may end or change; we are not responsible for partner stock or partner storefronts.
10. Prohibited conduct
You may not:
(a) create fake accounts or submit false competition posts or claim posts;
(b) manipulate verification, bots, or multiple accounts to farm Rewards;
(c) harass Members, staff, or partners;
(d) post unlawful, hateful, pornographic, or infringing content;
(e) reverse engineer or attack the Platform;
(f) resell Membership or Rewards;
(g) use Shot Bonus for spam or misleading endorsements that violate advertising disclosure laws (you must disclose material connections where required);
(h) circumvent geo or eligibility limits.
11. Intellectual property
Shot Bonus branding, software, and Platform content are owned by the Company or licensors. Membership grants no ownership of Platform IP. Partner marks belong to partners.
12. Disclaimers
THE PLATFORM, MEMBERSHIP, AND REWARDS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. WE DO NOT WARRANT UNINTERRUPTED SERVICE OR THAT ANY PARTICULAR REWARD WILL REMAIN AVAILABLE. Competition outcomes and athletic performance are your own. Mandatory consumer warranties that cannot be excluded remain.
13. Limitation of liability
13.1 We do not exclude liability that law forbids excluding (including certain consumer rights in the US or South Africa).
13.2 SUBJECT TO 13.1, OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY TWELVE (12) MONTHS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR MEMBERSHIP IN THAT PERIOD OR (B) USD 100.
13.3 SUBJECT TO 13.1, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR LOST PROFITS OR DATA.
14. Indemnification
You will indemnify the Company and its personnel against third-party claims arising from your content submissions, your breach of this Agreement, your misuse of Rewards, or your violation of law or others’ rights, except to the extent caused by our wilful misconduct.
15. Privacy
Personal information is processed under the Privacy Notice. US members and ZA members may have different statutory rights; we address both at a high level in that Notice.
16. Termination
16.1 You may stop using Shot Bonus and cancel Membership as in Section 6.
16.2 We may suspend or terminate for breach, fraud, legal risk, or program discontinuation. If we discontinue the program entirely for convenience, we will provide reasonable notice and address unused prepaid Membership as in Section 6.5.
16.3 On termination for your breach, unused Rewards may be forfeited where lawful. Survival: IP licences as needed for prior marketing, accrued fees, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, dispute terms.
17. Dispute resolution; governing law
17.1 Governing law: Laws of the State of Delaware, United States, excluding conflict rules, except that mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence (including South Africa where applicable) remain available.
17.2 Process: Contact us first at alerts@thetacticalnation.com. If unresolved after thirty (30) days, disputes shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, seated in a mutually reasonable US location (or via video), unless you opt out within thirty (30) days of first accepting these terms by emailing alerts@thetacticalnation.com with subject “Arbitration Opt-Out,” [counsel to confirm if opt-out / class waiver desired].
17.3 Class actions: To the extent lawful, disputes are brought only in an individual capacity — [CONFIRM with counsel].
17.4 Small-claims court and interim IP relief remain available where appropriate. ZA residents may have non-waivable tribunal rights; those survive where mandatory.
18. Changes
We may update these Terms and program rules by posting a new version. Material Membership changes apply on renewal or after notice. Continued participation after the effective date constitutes acceptance for ongoing use. Promotion-specific terms control for that promotion if tighter.
