How store credit works.
A small thank-you from us, added to your account after some orders and ready for your next. Here is how it is earned, spent and gifted, in plain words.
What store credit is
Store credit is a small thank-you from RS Living. When you shop with us while signed in to your account, some of your orders add credit to your account, which you can spend on a later order.
It is a thank-you, not a currency: it has no cash value and is not paid out as money. These are the current terms, and they are written to be plain, so please do ask if anything is unclear.
How you earn it
Credit is added automatically. Nothing to claim, no code to enter. An order qualifies when it has been paid, you placed it while signed in, it has not been cancelled or fully refunded, and its total before GST (not counting candles) is INR 10,000 or more.
Your qualifying orders are counted in turn, in a pattern of 3 that then repeats. Your 1st, 4th and 7th qualifying orders each earn 5% of the order total before GST. Your 3rd, 6th and 9th earn 8%. Your 2nd, 5th and 8th earn nothing. There is a limit on what a single order can earn, and your account shows what each order earned and what your next one can earn.
Amounts are rounded down to the nearest INR 50, and no credit is issued below INR 300. Candles do not count towards the total and earn nothing.
A worked example
Say your first qualifying order is INR 40,000 before GST. That is a "1st" in the pattern, so it earns 5%: INR 2,000 of credit.
Your second qualifying order is INR 25,000 before GST. A "2nd" earns nothing, so no credit is added this time. That is simply how the pattern works.
Your third is INR 60,000 before GST. A "3rd" earns 8%: INR 4,800 of credit. Your fourth then starts the pattern again at 5%.
Credit is added once the order is paid and confirmed, and we email you.
How long it lasts
Each amount of credit lasts 30 days from the day it is issued. The date is shown in your account and in the email we send you. Expired credit cannot be restored.
We send a reminder 5 days before it ends, and, if you have opted in to marketing emails, a last-day reminder 1 day before. Every reminder has an unsubscribe link.
How you spend it
Credit can be used on an order whose total before GST (not counting candles) is INR 20,000 or more. It applies to furniture, poufs, cushions, baskets and wall hangings, up to 10% of the value of those eligible pieces. It cannot be used on candles or on rugs.
For example, on an order of INR 50,000 before GST made up of eligible pieces, credit can cover up to INR 5,000. Each piece also has its own limit, and your bag and checkout show exactly how much applies, and why if it is less than your balance. Credit appears as its own line before GST is added.
One benefit applies to an order, either your credit or a privilege, whichever gives you more. They are never combined.
Gift credit to a friend
Know someone who would love RS Living? You can gift credit you have earned to a friend, and it is a lovely way to introduce them to the shop.
A friend you gift to creates a free RS Living account to claim it, using the email address you sent it to. Their credit keeps its original expiry date, so it is best to gift while there is time to use it. They can spend it on eligible pieces in an order of INR 20,000 or more before GST, on the same terms as above.
A gift is a one-time code, at least INR 300. It cannot be gifted again by the person who receives it, and you cannot gift credit to yourself.
If an order changes
If an order is cancelled or refunded, credit used on it returns to your balance with its original expiry date (or for 7 days if that date has already passed), and credit the order earned is withdrawn, so far as it has not been used or gifted on.
Good to know
Credit has no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money and is not refundable as cash. It does not affect your statutory rights.
The RS Living team may update these terms from time to time. What is written here is the current version, and credit already issued is honoured until its expiry date.
Questions
How do I earn store credit?
Automatically, on paid orders placed while signed in with a total before GST of INR 10,000 or more, candles not counted. Qualifying orders earn in a repeating pattern, so not every one adds credit.
Which orders earn credit and how much?
Your 1st, 4th and 7th qualifying orders earn 5%, your 3rd, 6th and 9th earn 8%, and your 2nd, 5th and 8th earn nothing. The amount is rounded down to INR 50, with a minimum of INR 300.
How long does credit last?
30 days from the day it is issued. We remind you 5 days before it ends, and 1 day before if you have opted in to marketing emails.
What can I spend it on?
Furniture, poufs, cushions, baskets and wall hangings, on an order of INR 20,000 or more before GST, up to 10% of the eligible pieces. Not candles and not rugs.
Can I use credit and a privilege together?
No. One benefit applies to an order, your credit or a privilege, whichever gives you more.
Can I gift my credit to a friend?
Yes. Credit you have earned and not yet used can be gifted to a friend by email as a one-time code. They create a free RS Living account to claim it, it keeps its original expiry date, and they can spend it on orders of INR 20,000 or more before GST on eligible pieces. It cannot be gifted again or gifted to yourself.
Can I swap credit for money?
No. Store credit has no cash value and is not refundable as cash.
