(“Hellas Pitas”, “we”, “our” and “us”), and offered as a benefit to our customers who register for the Hellas Pitas Rewards Program (“you”). These Terms supplement and are subject to the Hellas Pitas Privacy Policy at https://hellaspitas.com, Notice of Financial Incentives at https://hellaspitas.com/privacy, which are incorporated herein and made a part hereof. Please read these Terms carefully. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not participate in the Program.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM RELATED TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OR ARISING OUT OF YOUR ACCESS TO OR PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM MUST BE RESOLVED BY ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND MAY NOT BE ARBITRATED OR OTHERWISE PURSUED AS A CLASS ACTION. PLEASE SEE THE SECTION 14 (“DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND GOVERNING LAW”) BELOW.
1. Hellas Pitas Rewards Overview
The Program is a way for Hellas Pitas to reward and surprise our loyal guests. Members of the Program can earn points (“Hellas Pitas Points”) for eligible purchases that can be redeemed for Hellas Pitas food, beverages, restaurant credit, and percentage discounts at participating Hellas Pitas restaurants. By participating, you may also be rewarded with exclusive offers, invites to events, sneak peeks on new menu items, special birthday gifts, and other surprises.
2. Entering the Program
To enroll in the Program, you must affirmatively opt in, which you may do by visiting https://hellaspitas.com/rewards or by clicking “Sign In” and then “Sign Up” or “Create an Account” on the official Hellas Pitas website (the “Hellas Pitas Website”) or official Hellas Pitas app (the “Hellas Pitas App”) and completing all required fields, or in such other manner that we may provide from time to time. Your use of the Hellas Pitas Website or Hellas Pitas App is subject to additional terms and conditions. The Program is open to legal residents of the United States who: (A) possess the legal authority to agree to these Terms; (B) reside in a jurisdiction which legally permits participation in the Program; (C) provide valid and accurate personal information when enrolling the Program; (D) is not already a member of the Program; (E) have not been previously removed or terminated from the Program; and (F) are at least 18 years of age at the time of registration. The Program is not targeted, nor is it intended to be used by anyone under the age of 18. You can freely withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at [email protected]. Please note that withdrawing your opt-in to the Program will result in the closure of your Program account and the forfeiture of any Hellas Pitas Points held by the account. As a general matter, each Program account may be used by and associated with only one person. However, we will permit members of the same household to use the same account so long as the above requirements are met, but we cannot separate Program benefits, Hellas Pitas Points, or offers earned or used by different members of the same household using the same account.
By opening an account or by using the account to earn or redeem Hellas Pitas Points, you agree that you have read and accept these Terms.
3. Earning Hellas Pitas Points
When ordering in-restaurant, scan the barcode or QR code that identifies your account, as applicable, on your Hellas Pitas App and confirm your loyalty account with the cashier. If the Hellas Pitas App or in-restaurant scanner is not working, you may share your phone number with the cashier and confirm your account. If ordering online or on the Hellas Pitas App, you must be logged in to your Hellas Pitas Rewards account. Support may be sought from support.Hellas Pitas.com or such other website location as available from time to time.
For every qualifying Hellas Pitas purchase recorded to your Hellas Pitas Rewards account at the time of purchase, you will earn Hellas Pitas Points based on the qualifying purchase amount. For every full dollar you spend on the Qualifying Purchase (discussed below), you will receive ten (10) Hellas Pitas Points, and any remainder is rounded up or down based on unbiased rounding rules. For example, if you spend $14.68 in a Qualifying Purchase, you may receive 147 Hellas Pitas Points based on unbiased rounding rules. Please note that Hellas Pitas Points are tracked on a per purchase basis. Your Hellas Pitas Points will not be reflected immediately in your account upon purchase, but the points should be processed and appear within 24 hours afterwards.
The “Qualifying Purchase” amount is your pre-tax transaction total for a purchase but excludes any amounts spent for gift cards, delivery fees, taxes, tips, refunded items, gratis items, and returned items. Qualifying Purchases do not include purchases and orders made in connection with our catering services or our Hellas Pitas Table location(s). A Qualifying Purchase is paid by the enrolled user but excludes any amount spent or reduced through the Program, promotional redemptions, offers, and discounts. Please note that while the purchase of a gift card does not count as a Qualifying Purchase, the amount paid using a gift card may accumulate Hellas Pitas Points if made on an otherwise Qualifying Purchase.
Your Hellas Pitas Points are subject to expiration. Following your first Qualifying Purchase, you have 150 days from the date of that purchase to accumulate and redeem Hellas Pitas Points (the “150-Day Period”). At the end of the 150-Day Period, your Hellas Pitas Points will return to zero, and you may start another a new 150-Day Period upon your next Qualifying Purchase. If you have already initiated a 150-Day Period prior to the Effective Date, the remainder of that period will continue into the new points program on the Effective Date, and your Qualified Spend (defined under the previous terms for the Program) will automatically convert into Hellas Pitas Points using the same 10:1 ratio as described above. For example, if you have 30 days remaining for a 150-Day Period prior to the Effective Date, you will have 30 days of the 150-Day Period remaining under these Terms.
At this time, Hellas Pitas Points cannot be earned or redeemed on third party delivery services. Your ability to apply a purchase to your account may be limited to participating locations. We reserve the right to offer additional rewards or decline to offer rewards in our sole discretion and without notice to you.
Your Hellas Pitas Points have no cash value, are non-transferable, and cannot be exchanged or redeemed for cash, prizes, or credit except for the redemption of rewards available under the Program and expressly permitted in these Terms. The Qualifying Rewards (discussed below) cannot be redeemed for cash, have no cash-out value, and may be revoked at any time. Hellas Pitas Points believed to have been sold, exchanged, or issued fraudulently, or issued to someone other than the eligible account member, will be void. If you have any questions about your Hellas Pitas Points, please contact us at [email protected].
4. Using Hellas Pitas Points
Once your Hellas Pitas Rewards account reflects your accumulated Hellas Pitas Points, you may use your Hellas Pitas Points to load food, beverage, store credit, percentage discounts, and other items available through the Program (the “Qualifying Rewards”) to your account. Each of the Qualifying Rewards is assigned a point value, and you may redeem Hellas Pitas Points for a Qualifying Reward only through the Hellas Pitas Website or Hellas Pitas App, which requires that you are logged into your account. The Hellas Pitas Points values associated with the Qualifying Rewards are subject to change and may increase at any time, and the values listed at the time of your redemption constitute the amount due for redemption of Hellas Pitas Points at such time. Also, the Qualifying Rewards are subject to change at any time. We reserve the right to change, modify, terminate, or cancel any Qualifying Rewards, offers, terms, rules, benefits, and regulations of our Program at any time, even though such changes may affect the value of already-issued Hellas Pitas Points and rewards. You cannot make changes, modifications, upgrades, or other alterations to Qualifying Rewards, which are offered as they are listed in the Hellas Pitas Website and Hellas Pitas App. Unless expressly stated otherwise in connection with the Qualifying Reward, no Qualifying Reward may be used in connection with a purchase or order for our catering services.
Once you load a Qualifying Reward to your account, the associated Hellas Pitas Points value will be reduced in your account. You will also have a limited time to redeem that Qualifying Reward at a participating Hellas Pitas store location. To redeem your Qualifying Reward, simply scan your Hellas Pitas Rewards account via the Hellas Pitas App to identify yourself at checkout. You must let the operator know that you are choosing to redeem your Qualifying Reward so the operator may select the same for checkout. When placing a digital order via the Hellas Pitas App or online, any available Qualifying Reward may automatically apply to your transaction, but you are responsible for confirming the application of the reward to your order.
After the earlier of your redemption of the Qualifying Reward or the expiration of the redemption period, your Qualifying Reward will no longer be valid or redeemable. Any unused Qualifying Reward is forfeited and will not be refunded to Hellas Pitas Points or any other credit. Unless otherwise specified, your Qualifying Reward will expire sixty (60) days after you load it to your account. When Qualifying Rewards are loaded to your account, additional terms, conditions, and restrictions may apply. Please carefully review the Terms applicable to rewards issued to you.
Once you load a Qualifying Reward to your account, the selection is final and cannot be refunded or otherwise changed. Not all Qualifying Rewards may be available at all Hellas Pitas locations. Qualifying Rewards are subject to availability at Hellas Pitas store locations. If the Qualifying Reward is not available at a particular location or at a particular time, no extensions of time for redemption, refunds, or transfers will be allowed.

- $8 LOYALTY REWARD (880 Hellas Pitas Points): Covers the cost of one (1) credit in the value of $8.00 to be loaded onto your account and may be used to reduce the purchase price of an order. If there is any amount left over after an order, it can be used in a subsequent transaction, provided that the transaction is made within the Qualifying Reward’s expiration date. Each Qualifying Reward is non-transferable and expires 60 days after loading into your account. You are responsible for any costs exceeding the credit amount. Does not apply to any other items not explicitly stated in this description. Multiple credits may be stacked to your account. The Qualifying Reward cannot be exchanged for cash or combined with other offers. Additional terms, conditions, and restrictions may apply at the time or location of redemption.

For all account holders who have a lifetime spend of at least one hundred dollars (as calculated and recorded by us), whether in the Pilot Program or not, you may receive a click-to-claim birthday reward loaded to your account without redeeming Hellas Pitas Points. Such Qualifying Reward is subject to the following additional terms:
- $9 BIRTHDAY REWARD: Provides one (1) credit in the value of $9.00 to be loaded onto your account through a click-to-claim function and may be used to reduce the purchase price of an order. If there is any amount left over after an order, it can be used in a subsequent transaction, provided that the transaction is made within the Qualifying Reward’s expiration date. You are responsible for any costs exceeding the credit amount. Does not apply to any other items not explicitly stated in this description. Each Qualifying Reward is non-transferable and expires thirty (30) days from the date of issue. The Qualifying Reward cannot be exchanged for cash or combined with other offers.
