Policy for Payment and Denials
You will reimbursed only for the following three (3) items:
Face value of properly redeemed coupons or, if the coupon calls for free merchandise, for your retail-selling price (up to the stated maximum value printed on the coupon)
8₵ ($.08) for handling each properly redeemed coupon
Reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred for the physical transportation of the coupons to us or to our authorized agent. We will not pay for any administrative or consolidation fees and, except as described in (ii) below, we will not pay any other up charges that you or your agent (if you use one) may assess on or in lieu of such pass-through/out-of-pocket expenses.
Transportation costs will be reimbursed as follows:
Retailers who sort the coupons they have redeemed and submit them directly without the use of any third party agent will be reimbursed for incurred reasonable postage (i.e. first class mail insured) or other shipping charges, as indicated on the package received.
Retailers who use a clearinghouse or billing agent will be reimbursed at our established rate of nine dollars per thousand coupons redeemed ($9/M).
The above three items (11a-11c) represent the only amounts for which retailers will be reimbursed. Retailers agree not to deduct or attempt to collect any additional amounts from Pacific Seafood in any way. Any attempted deduction or collection, and any associated deduction or collection fee, constitutes breach of this agreement and will not be accepted.
Coupon reimbursements and coupon adjustments cannot be deducted from product invoices or purchase orders. Invoice deductions and deduction fees are not in compliance with Pacific Seafood redemption policy.
Pacific Seafood reserves the right to request proof of purchase to show sufficient stock was purchased to justify the number of coupons submitted. Upon request, you must produce satisfactory evidence of your purchase. Pacific Seafood reserves the right to audit the coupon sorting and billing service of any retailer or agent involved in the handling process.
Pacific Seafood and our agent make every effort to make payment within thirty days from receipt of a coupon submission and invoice. The eight cents handling fee covers any and all costs associated with this time period.
If variances occur between your coupon invoice and our payment, an explanation will be enclosed with the payment. You have six months to inquire about a variance. Lack of inquiry within six months of any variance constitutes your agreement with the adjustment. Appeals made more than six months from the date of payment will not be considered by Pacific Seafood.
