For questions, please contact GatorArcade customer service at care@gatorarcade.com or call 1-800-988-6084.

Gas for Games:  Members may earn gas credits (“Gas”) in two ways.  Each type of Gas has its own term as provided below.

A.  Game Play Gas:  Members may earn Gas each time they Login to the Website (as described below in section 4) and play GatorArcade online games (“Game Play Gas”).  Once Login is complete, Members may earn one (1) cent of Game Play Gas for every 20 seconds they play GatorArcade online games.  Members will not accumulate any Game Play Gas if they play less than 20 seconds.  If your account is idle for more than ten minutes, the Game Play Gas clock will stop and you will no longer earn Game Play Gas. You may, however, continue accumulating Game Play Gas at another time during the Monthly Billing Cycle. Members may redeem up to $25 of Game Play Gas per Monthly Billing Cycle.   Once you have earned $25 dollars worth of Game Play Gas during the Monthly Billing Cycle, you may continue to play GatorArcade online games, but you will not receive any additional Game Play Gas credit for the time played.  You can begin accumulating Game Play Gas each new Monthly Billing Cycle.   Members may only earn Game Play Gas by playing one GatorArcade online game at a time during each Login, and Members may not Login to more than one computer at a time to play GatorArcade online games to earn Game Play Gas.  You will not earn Game Play Gas while playing mobile games. 

B.  Tell-A-Friend Gas:  Members may also earn Gas by inviting their friends to join the Service by using the Tell-A-Friend invitation tool available on the Website (“Tell-A-Friend Gas”).  You can earn $2 worth of Tell-A-Friend Gas for each friend that you refer to the Website, with a maximum of 10 friend invitations, or $20 dollars worth of Tell-A-Friend Gas, per Monthly Billing Cycle.  A friend is considered to be referred to the Website if the friend signs up for the Service via the email link delivered through the Tell-A-Friend invitation tool and remains a Member until he or she has completed one full Monthly Billing Cycle.

No more than $25 dollars worth of Game Play Gas and/or $20 dollars worth of Tell-A-Friend Gas may be earned or redeemed per Monthly Billing Cycle.  Gas will be awarded in the form of a $25 gas gift card, or by check (“Gas Award”), within GatorArcade’s sole discretion.  Members must accumulate at least $25 dollars worth of Gas, through any combination of Game Play Gas and/or Tell-A-Friend Gas, during the Monthly Billing Cycle before redeeming a Gas Award.  You may only redeem Gas once per Monthly Billing Cycle.  Unredeemed Gas may be rolled over from month to month for as long as you remain a Member, however, no more than $25 dollars worth of Game Play Gas and/or $20 dollars worth of Tell-A-Friend Gas may be redeemed per Monthly Billing Cycle.  If you cancel your Membership you will no longer be eligible to earn Gas, and all previously earned Gas will expire upon Membership cancellation and may not be redeemed after Membership cancellation.  Gas gift card restrictions apply.  GatorArcade’s clock is the official clock for the Service.  Each “Monthly Billing Cycle” is determined according to the Member’s start date.  For example, if the Member registered for the Service on October 5th, his Monthly Billing Cycle begins on the 5th of every month and ends on the 4th of every subsequent month. If the Member registered for the Service on October 31st, his Monthly Billing Cycle begins on the 31st of each month [or the 30th if the month only has 30 days] and ends on the second to last day of each subsequent month [the 29th day if the month has 30 days and the 30th day if the month has 31 days].

Gas Award Redemption:  If you have succeeded in satisfying all requirements to receive a Gas Award, you must then mail to us a completed redemption form (the “Redemption Form”).  Redemption forms can be printed from the Website and are available at http://Gas.Gatorarcade.com/Gas_Redeem.html.  Please be advised that the INFORMATION SUPPLIED IN THE REDEMPTION FORM MUST MATCH THE INFORMATION SUPPLIED IN YOUR REGISTRATION INFORMATION.  GatorArcade reserves the right to refuse Gas Award fulfillment if any information supplied on the Redemption Form does not match your Registration Data.  Please ensure that you mail the Redemption Form via a trackable method of shipment; GatorArcade is not responsible for any lost and/or misdirected Redemption Forms.   Acceptance of the Gas Award constitutes permission for GatorArcade and its agencies to use Member’s name, photo and/or likeness for advertising and promotional purposes without additional compensation, unless prohibited by law. 

Once GatorArcade receives your Redemption Form; we will review your Member status, and verify your account to ensure that you have fully qualified to receive a Gas Award.  If you qualify, GatorArcade will mail you either a gas gift card, or a check (within its sole discretion) to the mailing address supplied in your Registration Data within approximately 4-6 weeks after we received your Redemption Form.  Checks must be deposited within ninety (90) days from the date set forth on the check. 

Members who receive a Gas Award are solely responsible for any and all taxes and liabilities associated with the receipt of the Gas Award.
