"BUA FIT” Session Credits" are "points" issued by BUA FIT that may be applied as credits toward future Confirmed Bookings made by you via the App.

15.2. To receive a Session Credit you must share the referral code with a friend. Your friend then has to create a BUA FIT login and make a Booking using the App. Once their Booking is confirmed by us and your friend has paid the Service Fee, which is not subsequently cancelled, we will credit your account with a free session. This is known as a "Qualifying Referral". You may share the referral code using the App (it will offer some options to do it). The time limit for use of the referral code as well as rules of using it together with other promotions may be changed from time to time by BUA FIT of which you will be informed by the App.

15.3. The referral link should only be shared with your friends and should only be used for personal and non-commercial purposes. You are not permitted to publish or distribute the link on platforms or media where you are a contributor but not the primary content owner (such as Wikipedia, coupon websites or Reddit).

15.4. Any Session Credits that you earn will be shown in your BUA FIT account in a commercially reasonable amount of time after the Qualifying Referral has been completed. The Session Credits you earn will be shown on your credits page. Session Credits can be accrued solely by you and you may not earn credits by permitting another individual to use your BUA FIT account. Session Credits accrued in multiple BUA FIT accounts may not be combined into one BUA FIT account. You may not earn Session Credits by creating multiple BUA FIT accounts. You are responsible for keeping track of the Session Credits in your account.
