Referral Program Summary

Customers who refer AIS to others (clients) may qualify for the AIS Referral Program reward. AIS will issue a reward of a specific dollar amount (e.g. $25, $50, $100) to the Referring Party for each Qualified Referral. The Reward amount will be noted on the Referral Program web page, and/or in promotional materials made available to customers. Referring Party may earn up to a calendar year limit of $500 per year and a lifetime limit of $1,000. As of January 1, 2022, the lifetime limit will include previous past rewards received by the Referring Party. For example, if a Referring Party received $750 in Referral Rewards, they will be eligible to earn up to $250. To qualify for the Program's reward, Referred Party must call AIS, receive a quote for an insurance policy, and mention the Referring Party.

Participant Acceptance

AIS will make all determinations regarding participation in the Program. Current AIS and Mercury employees are not eligible to participate in this program. AIS reserves the right to terminate your participation in the Program or cancel the entire Program at any time for any reason or no reason, to the extent permitted by law. In the case of a termination, the status of pending Referral Rewards will be communicated to you. Any written notices required or permitted to be given by AIS hereunder may be delivered by email to the email address we have on file for you. By participating in the Program, you consent to the delivery of all Program-related notices and information by email to the email address you have provided to AIS, and acknowledge that you have the necessary equipment (hardware and software) to receive and read such emails.

If a Referral contacts AIS to inquire about AIS's products and services, the Referral must mention being referred and provide the name and phone number of the Referring Party during the initial call with AIS in order for the Referral Reward to be honored. Referrals will not be allocated to the Referring Party retroactively, meaning after a quote has been given without mention of the Referring Party.

Reward Processing (Payments)

Referral Rewards will typically be processed and sent out to the Referring Party within 14 days of a Referral’s quote.
AIS is not responsible for (I) Referred Party not completing a quote, (II) Referred Party not mentioning being a Referral or not proving essential information for whom referred them, (III) delays or failure to send rewards due to outdated customer email address, or (IV) Referring Party deleting or losing a reward after it has been sent.

CAN-SPAM Act Compliance

AIS complies with the federal CAN-SPAM Act and honors requests of clients and customers who choose to opt-out of receiving AIS marketing emails. Accordingly, if the Referring Party has previously unsubscribed from receiving AIS marketing emails, they will not be able to receive Referral Program correspondence.
