The Recognition Reward Programme is open to all UK and Republic of Ireland residents aged 18 years or above who wish to apply for a Recognition Reward Card (‘Reward Card‘), excluding any person eligible for House of Fraser staff discount. The Recognition Reward Card cannot be used in conjunction with the Recognition MasterCard or Recognition Account Card.
2. When you register a Recognition Reward Card, we will set up an individual online account for you which will record the Points you have collected and the Rewards earned. You will not be able to redeem any Rewards until you have registered your card online at www.houseoffraser.co.uk and received a notification from us by email that your account has been registered.
3. If you create an account in the App, if you do not already have a registered Recognition Reward Card or a Recognition MasterCard or Account Card, we will set up an individual Recognition Reward Account for you which will record the Points you have collected and the Rewards earned. If you already have a registered plastic Recognition Reward Card and you sign into your account through the App, you will be able to see the Points you have collected and the Rewards earned. You can also merge a plastic Reward Card with an in-App Recognition Reward Account.
4. Recognition Reward Cards are issued by Us and remain Our property. If requested, You may be required to return Your Reward Card to Us or to destroy it.
5. You are responsible for notifying Us if your details change. We are not responsible for delayed or undeliverable mail, email or text messages. You can notify us of a change of details online through your account or by contacting our customer services team.

How to collect points

1. Points are available on qualifying purchases made within participating House of Fraser stores with a Recognition Reward Card or through the App and online at www.houseoffraser.co.uk. Points cannot be collected, nor can Rewards be redeemed, on the following items: Gift Vouchers, Gift Cards, financial services, any large kitchen appliances and any other non-participating departments as set out in the relevant promotional terms where applicable.
2. One Point will be awarded for every complete £1/€1 you spend on a qualifying purchase. We reserve the right to amend this structure as and when We deem it necessary. Up to date Points and Rewards information is available in store and online.
3. To collect Points for a purchase in store, you must present a Reward Card or your Recognition Reward Account barcode in the App. If you do not have your Recognition Card or App with you, Points can be added to your account up to 30 days after the date of purchase upon production of a validated till receipt and your Reward Card or Reward Account barcode in the App. To collect Points online, you simply need to have signed in to your account at www.houseoffraser.co.uk when making a qualifying purchase.
4. At the start of every month We will check to see whether You have collected the requisite number of Points to earn a Reward and if so, we will load the relevant Reward value onto Your account and notify you by the end of the month. If You have any Points left over after Your Rewards have been issued, the unused Points will be carried forward towards your next Reward for up to a maximum of 12 months. Any Points that are not allocated to a Reward after a period of 12 months will automatically expire and be removed from your accounts.
5. In the event You receive a refund on goods, all Recognition Points received as a result of that purchase will be deducted from Your current balance and will not count towards Your Rewards.
6. When the Reward account is closed, any unused Points shall be deducted from your account . Rewards already issued prior to the termination of the Recognition Reward Programme shall remain valid until their stated expiry date.
7. Please note that your Points balance may not be updated immediately when you make a qualifying purchase. You may need to wait 24 hours before the Points show in your account for both in store and online purchases.
