The Program is available to individuals for their personal use only and is limited to one account per individual. Corporations, associations or other groups may not participate in the Program. Individuals who are residents of the United States (including its territories and possessions) and at least over the age of 18 years or older and who provide and maintain a valid email address are eligible to become members. Employees of Bookish and Realm Makers Companies and individuals employed by our business partners or vendors are eligible for membership for personal use only but may be excluded from certain benefits of the Program
1.2. By joining the Program and becoming a Program member, you (individually and collectively, “you,” “your,” or “Member”), agree that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Program Terms and Conditions of Participation (“Program Terms”) and by any changes or modifications we may make. You should review these Program Terms and the related policies and FAQs frequently to understand the terms and conditions that apply to the Program as they may change from time to time. These Program Terms do not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with us, including any agreement for products or services. By enrolling in the Program, you also agree to be bound by our Privacy Policy and our website Terms and Conditions, which are incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Program Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our website Terms and Conditions, you cannot participate in the Program. The Program is void where prohibited by law.
2. Program Enrollment
2.1 Eligible individuals may only enroll in the Program by visiting Bookish (collectively, the “Storefront”) and following the Program prompts at checkout to register for the Program.
2.2. You are required to provide your email address or phone number in order to enroll. You may also have the opportunity to provide us with your first name, last name, mailing address, or birth date but this information is optional. You are solely responsible for maintaining the accuracy of your account information and for updating it as required. You may update your personal information at the Storefront.
2.3. Only one Program account may be associated with a single email address. In the event of a dispute over ownership of the Program membership account, the member will be deemed to be the authorized account holder of the email address submitted at the time of enrollment. For purposes of these Terms, the “authorized account holder” is the natural person who is assigned to the submitted email address by an internet provider, online service provider, or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address.
3. How the Program Works and Program Benefits
3.1. The Program is a way in which we reward and thank our loyal customers for purchasing our products and/or taking other Program related actions. For your purchase to qualify for the Program, you must be enrolled in the Program and be signed into your online account at the time of purchase at the Storefront. You are able to earn points and reach Program reward levels by making eligible purchases or taking certain other Program actions. Once you reach a certain reward level and/or earn a certain number of points, you may be eligible for certain benefits and rewards applicable to that number of points, which benefits may change from time to time and may be offered on a limited basis. Eligible purchases and other opportunities to reach Program loyalty levels or earn points will be posted in the Storefront or may be published through other media (e.g., in-store, in marketing communications, social media, etc.).
3.2. Bookish Bucks is a reward-based program determined by the number of points a member has earned on eligible purchases and through qualifying activities, beginning on the date of enrolment. There are 7 reward levels:
- Level 1: 50pts – Free Die from the Dice Bin
- Level 2: 100pts – $5 off on $5 or more
- Level 3: 200pts – Free Bookmark
- Level 4: 300pts – $10 off on $10 or more
- Level 5: 400pts – Free I’m Bookish Bag
- Level 6: 500pts – Free I’m Bookish Mug
- Level 7: 1000pts – $30 off your purchase of $30 or more
When you join with your email, you’ll automatically be given 25 points.

Eligible purchases include regular priced merchandise and exclude eGift Cards, sales tax, state fees, discounts, shipping and delivery charges and/or other excluded charges specified by us from time-to-time. All points earned from purchases on the store are pending for at least 48 hours, at which point they are fully matured and capable of redemption.
Members will not receive points or benefits from retail purchases made on our website or from purchases made at pop-up locations. Purchases made outside of Bookish in the King of Prussia Mall and the United States are also not eligible for Bookish Bucks.
3.4. 2x Points: Bookish reserves the right to offer double (2x) point days at our discretion. These days will be announced via email, in-store, and on social media. Bookish reserves the right to cancel 2x point days at our discretion and without notice.
