The TravisMathew loyalty program in the U.S. ("Program") is brought to you by travisMathew LLC ("TravisMathew" and/or "we" or "us"). The Program is governed by these TravisMathew Loyalty Program Terms & Conditions ("Program Terms"). [We should discuss the entities listed on the site. TravisMathew is the entity listed in the website terms of use, but Callaway is listed as the entity in the privacy policy. By participating in the Program, you agree to these Program Terms.
ARBITRATION OF CLAIMS:
Please read these program terms carefully. they affect your legal rights and require binding arbitration of claims associated with the program, waiving class action claims associated with the program, and waiving the right to trial by jury to the fullest extent permitted by law. you agree that any and all claims or disputes that arise out of or relate to your participation in the program must be resolved through mandatory, binding arbitration, rather than litigation in court. that means that an arbitrator, not a judge or jury, will decide any claim associated with the program. see section 13 below for more details.
The Program is void where prohibited by law.
1. Overview
The Program is a customer-reward program that is available to eligible TravisMathew customers (see Section 2 below for full eligibility details). You can create a Program membership account ("Program Account"):
- (i) at any TravisMathew retail store in the United States (ask a store representative to help you begin the process),
- (ii) by visiting travismathew.com ("Site") and completing the Program Account registration form
Eligible customers who sign up for a Program Account ("Members") will be able to earn points ("Points") with each Earning Activity (as defined below). When you have earned the requisite amount of Points, those Points will be converted into store rewards ("Reward") that you can use to make Authorized Purchases (as defined below).
2. Eligibility & Registration
The Program is open only to legal residents of any one (1) of the fifty (50) United States or the District of Columbia who are the age of majority in their jurisdiction of residence. You must provide us with all required information to register for a Program Account. First name, last name, a valid email address and phone number are required to set up a Program Account. Additional information, such as date of birth and gender are not required. However, you will be able to receive additional Program's benefits should you choose to provide this. There is no cost to enroll and no purchase is necessary to enroll. When you enroll in the Program and create a Program Account, you are agreeing to receive e-mail messages related to the Program from TravisMathew. Members who have opted-out of receiving marketing emails from TravisMathew will still be able to participate in the Program and receive messages about their Program Account (e.g., Points balance, usage, and news about changes to these Program Terms). There is a limit of one (1) Program Account per individual/email address/phone number. You agree that you will not participate in the Program under more than one (1) Program Account. Corporations, groups, and associations are not eligible to register for a Program Account.
You agree you will not sell, transfer or assign your Program Account, any rewards or any membership rights. Points and Rewards are not your personal property, are not descendible, and may not be inherited, bartered, purchased, or sold. For online users, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any login credentials and for restricting access to your computer (or other device, as applicable) so that others may not access your Program Account.
Points for Earning Purchases at TravisMathew.com or through TravisMathew's call center qualify for Points once all items have shipped, which means that items in the same transaction that are shipped separately will all qualify for Points after the final item(s) have shipped. The timing of Point qualification for Additional Earning Activities may vary, but will appear in your Program Account within approximately thirty (3) business days of your completion of an Additional Earning Activity. You may view your Program Account summary by logging in at TravisMathew.com and navigating to the Rewards Dashboard or by calling our Customer Service team at at 1-877-969-1952.
Tier info
After your points are automatically converted to Rewards, those Points will be removed and [describe how consumers will be notified of availability of the Reward, e.g., the corresponding Rewards will be sent to you via email, and accessible on your Program Account online (or by other means in our sole discretion) approximately 30 days after the conversion OR you will be notified via email of the corresponding Reward, which will be accessible on your Program Account online and at checkout in stores]. If you earn multiple Rewards at a time, they will be combined and included within one (1) email. Rewards will be issued with unique promo codes that can be used in-store, online or through our call center, as described in Section 5 below (each, a "Reward Coupon Code"). [Please revise as appropriate based on the method by which Rewards will be issued to/available to Members.] Each Reward Coupon Code may be used once by the Program Account holder.
Points will be converted on a "first in, first out" basis, such that the first Points earned will be the first Points converted to a Reward. Once converted, your Points balance will be reduced by the number of Points used to obtain the Reward(s). In the event of a return, refund, or credit adjustment results in insufficient Points for the Rewards converted, the conversion may not be fulfilled. If the Reward is fulfilled and we later discover that you did not have sufficient Points for the Rewards in your Points balance, in addition to any other actions we may take, future Points earnings will be applied to the Rewards until such time as sufficient Points are earned to cover the redemption of the Rewards. Points will not be converted into Rewards until you again have a positive balance. Points you earn may not be combined with Points earned by anyone else for purposes of receiving Rewards, or any other purposes. Points earned have no cash value, and cannot be purchased, sold, bartered or redeemed for cash, unless required by applicable law. If Points earned are determined to be unauthorized or fraudulent, you will not earn a Rewards for those Points.
See Exhibit A for current information regarding benefits, how Points are calculated, how many Points must be accrued to earn a Reward, and the value of a Reward. We may change the manner in which Points are calculated, how many Points must be accrued to earn a Reward, and the value of a Reward at any time.
4. Point Expiration; Reward Expiration; Returns & Exchanges; Errors
[For the following, we need some confirmation on the policy of points/rewards expiration. E.g., will only converted Rewards expire after a period of inactivity? And/or will unconverted Points expire? Once we have a better handle on the policy, we can revise to accurately reflect.] if you do not take action to earn points through an earning activity for twelve (12) months, any unused points [or rewards?] in your program account (i.e., points not converted to rewards) will expire [pls confirm this is what is intended, versus, e.g., unused points expiring 12 months after they were earned]. rewards will expire forty-five (45) days after points have been converted to a reward. members will receive a reminder email five (5) days before each reward expires.
If you return a purchase for which you earned Points in accordance with TravisMathew's then current return policy, the Points associated with your Program Account will be reduced by the number of Points equivalent to the amount of the refund you receive. In the event of an even exchange, any Points earned in association with the original purchase will remain. In the event of an exchange of an item of lesser value, the difference in value from your original purchase will be deducted from your Program Account. In the event of an exchange for an item of greater value, any additional expenditure will accrue Points in accordance with these terms. Any new promotional offers in effect at the time of an exchange will not apply, nor modify your Program Account balance.
Our transactional records will be considered conclusive if there is a dispute about the number of Points or the number or value of any Reward earned, redeemed or deducted. You should retain your copy of the receipt(s) and any other document which evidences your Point balance. Call us at [insert phone number] within thirty (30) days from relevant transaction date if you have any questions or concerns about your Points or Rewards.
We accept no liability for any errors in the number of Points or any Reward disclosed to you.
5. Reward Redemption
[For this next section, we made some assumptions on how the redemption process will work, but please review carefully and revise as necessary to reflect the operation of the TravisMathew program.]
Unexpired Rewards may be applied to purchases of TravisMathew merchandise at a TravisMathew retail store in the United States, at TravisMathew.com, or through our call center [confirm], as long as your membership remains effective, and the Reward has not expired (each an "Authorized Purchase"). Rewards cannot be applied to previous purchases, existing special orders, charity items, credit card payments, coupons, layaway items, processing charges, delivery surcharges, shipping and handling, taxes, or state and any other applicable governmental fees. Rewards will be redeemed in United States dollars. Each Reward must be used in one purchase. Any remaining unused amount of a redeemed Reward will be forfeited (and no change will be given). Likewise, the member using a Reward is responsible for all charges in excess of the value of the Reward. TravisMathew store representatives have the right to deny any transaction or reject your use of any Reward in the event of any attempted or actual sale or transfer of any of your Points, Rewards, or your Program Account or misrepresentation or other fraudulent behavior by you.
The Reward will be in addition to other promotional credits or discounts offered at the time of purchase ("Other Rewards"), unless otherwise stated in the Other Rewards. The Reward will be applied after all Other Rewards are applied to the Authorized Purchase. Associates of TravisMathew cannot combine Rewards with an employee discount.

After using the Reward, the TravisMathew representative will not return the printed/paper copy to you.

TRAVISMATHEW WELCOMES JAMES BLAKE TO THE FAMILY
HIGHLIGHTSFormer professional tennis champion turned sport commentator, writer, philanthropist and social activist, James Blake is something of a jack of all trades. And while we’ve had the honor of calling James a friend for many years, we couldn’t be more excited to welcome him as an official TravisMathew ambassador.
James has never been content to just sit still — something we appreciate about him. Instead of just kicking back in his “retirement” from professional tennis, he’s involved in more than ever.
Most recently, James has set his sights on a charity race, the “4 x 4 x 48 David Goggins Challenge” — a grueling physical challenge that requires a four mile run every four hours for 48 hours. Yep, even in the middle of the night! James decided to participate in the challenge to raise money for the James Blake Foundation, an organization he founded to invest vital seed money into cancer research. Interested in donating to the cause? You can support James’ work and learn more about his efforts HERE.
No stranger to charitable work, James also created the Thomas Blake Sr. Memorial Cancer Research Fund at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in memory of his father. He also holds an annual “Serving for a Cure” celebrity tennis and entertainment event to raise funds for cancer research and prevention.
James has had a remarkable career across the board. In the fall of 2015, while standing in front of his hotel in Midtown Manhattan awaiting a ride to the U.S. Open, a NYPD plain clothes officer threw him to the ground and handcuffed him. A case of mistaken identity became a racial profiling incident and a turning point for the former tennis player. Instead of responding with outrage and anger – a natural and easily justified response – Blake faced the incident as an opportunity for discussion with dignity and calm. A news conference and a nationally syndicated interview on television the following morning gave him the opportunity to share his experience from the day before. The story went viral.
In the summer of 2017, Blake released “Ways of Grace” a book inspired by this incident. His novel details a series of uplifting stories and small acts of grace throughout the sports world that have helped bridge cultural and racial divides.
James Blake is a host, correspondent and studio and remote analyst with ESPN, as a regular commentator for the Tennis Channel. He covers several grand slam tournaments for CNN annually and served as a commentator on NBC’s Summer Olympics tennis coverage in 2020. James wowed fans during his tennis career that featured 10 singles wins, a Davis Cup Championship and a New York Times Best Seller award for his memoir “Breaking Back”.
As tournament director of the Miami Open since 2018, James leads player relations, media, broadcast and tournament improvements and innovations.
James turned pro in 1999 while he was the No. 1 ranked player at Harvard University. Following an injury that could have ended his career, James climbed from outside the ATP Top 200 to No. 4 spot, a career-high ranking. This ranking made James the top-ranked American player in the world, a feat that led to his recognition as the 2005 ATP Comeback Player of the Year.
Not one to rest on his heels, James followed this standout year by reaching the 2006 Tennis Masters Cup and the honor of being a key contributor for the United States in the 2007 Davis Cup. In the championship tie against Russia, James went 2-0 in second singles and helped seal the victory. James retired from professional tennis at the 2013 US Open after an impressive career in the sport.
If you’re anything like us, signing James Blake to our team is exciting to you. We can’t wait to bring you more content featuring James and keep you updated on everything he’s up to!
