GIVEAWAYS & HOSTESS REWARDS
Hostess Rewards and giveaways are each governed by different rules.
Hostess Rewards are governed by 6.8 Adherence to Hostess Rewards Program and may only be earned when a person has hosted an online or in-person event. When there is no predetermined hostess (including mystery hostess promotions), any free accessories offered are considered giveaways and are governed by the rules listed below.
Giveaway Rules
- Paparazzi Accessories may not be sold, promoted, offered, or given away alongside non-Paparazzi products at vendor events, home parties, live videos, or on websites and social media (including posts, albums, reels, and lives). One household business = one post.
- Household business items may not be part of Paparazzi giveaways
- Accessories may not be discounted. Prohibited promotions include, but are not limited to:
- “Buy X, Get X Free”
- Coupons, coupon codes, credits, or bling bucks
- Paparazzi gift cards or gift certificates (paper only) may be sold for third-party use, but may not be given away. (See PAPARAZZI GIFT CERTIFICATE/GIFT CARD.)
- Free shipping and "no sales tax recoupment" may be offered as giveaway rewards. Consultants remain responsible for all applicable tax obligations. (See GENERAL SALES/USE TAX RECOUPMENT OR REIMBURSEMENT/NEXUS)
- Consultants may charge shipping for free giveaways, provided this is clearly disclosed at the time the giveaway is announced. Charging excessive shipping may be considered unethical and may constitute selling below mandated prices in violation of Section 5.11.
- A purchase may not be required to enter or win a giveaway.
- Back Office Boutique items may not be sold or given away, as they are for Consultant use only and have no retail price. Paparazzi Possible merchandise may be given away, as it is available for customer purchase.
- Consultants may not create or give away items using Paparazzi's Independent Consultant Logos or Corporate Logos. (See Section 5.5.)
Share Giveaway Exception
A share giveaway rewards individuals for sharing a Consultant’s Paparazzi live video.
Paparazzi strongly encourages Consultants to give away Paparazzi Accessories. Generally, non-Paparazzi products may not be sold or given away alongside Paparazzi Accessories (see Sections 5.10, 5.11, and 5.13). However, non-Paparazzi products are permitted for share giveaways only.
- Consultants may announce a share giveaway, draw a winner, and identify the winner during a live video.
- Non-Paparazzi share giveaway items may be shown during the live, but must be clearly identified as non-Paparazzi.
- This exception applies only to non-Paparazzi share giveaways.
- All other giveaways must consist of Paparazzi Accessories only.
