Effective Date: 9/20/2025
These Terms of Service govern your participation in the Next Block Rewards Program offered by Next Block Vending LLC. By enrolling in the Program, you agree to these Terms.
1. Program Overview
- The Program allows customers to receive rewards denominated in satoshis ("sats"), the smallest unit of Bitcoin.
- Rewards are issued as promotional rebates and loyalty incentives, not as deposits, securities, or financial products.
- The Program may include an optional Round-Up feature, where purchases are rounded up to the nearest dollar and the difference is credited as sats.
2. Nature of Rewards
- Rewards are promotional in nature and have no cash redemption value from the Company.
- Rewards are intended to be spent within the Program (i.e., at participating Next Block vending machines).
- Rewards are not a financial account, are not FDIC-insured, and do not accrue interest.
3. Wallet Services
- A digital rewards wallet is created for each Participant through integrated third-party services (e.g., LNbits).
- Until you pair your own third-party wallet, the wallet functions as a promotional rewards balance managed by the Company for the sole purpose of crediting sats to you.
- You may pair a supported wallet application (e.g., Alby, Mutiny, ZEUS) to assume direct custody of rewards. Once paired, you control the funds in that wallet.
- The Company retains technical access solely to credit rewards into the wallet. At no time does the Company act as your fiduciary, trustee, or money transmitter.
4. Spending Rewards
- Rewards may be redeemed at participating Next Block Vending machines.
- Transfers to an external wallet are optional, initiated by the Participant, and performed through third-party wallet integrations.
- The Company does not provide redemption into cash or fiat currency.
5. Unclaimed Rewards & Balance Limits
- Expiration: Rewards that remain unclaimed (e.g., no wallet pairing or redemption) for more than 12 months may be subject to expiration or reversion to the Company.
- Balance limits: To ensure the Program remains a loyalty program and not a financial account, individual reward balances may be capped at [e.g., $500 USD equivalent]. Balances above this limit may require you to pair and withdraw to a third-party wallet, or may be adjusted or expired.
- Inactive accounts: If an account is inactive (no purchases or redemptions) for more than 18 months, rewards may be reclaimed by the Company in accordance with applicable law.
6. No Money Transmission
- The Program is a closed-loop promotional rewards system.
- The Company does not facilitate the exchange of fiat currency into Bitcoin, nor transmission of funds between customers.
- Rewards are issued solely by the Company as part of a marketing program.
7. Eligibility
- You must be at least 18 years old or have parental/guardian consent to participate.
- Participation is for personal, non-commercial use only.
8. Limitations of Liability
- The Company is not responsible for loss of access to your rewards due to third-party service outages, wallet errors, or Bitcoin network issues.
- The Company is not liable for changes in the value of Bitcoin or sats relative to fiat currency.
- Maximum liability to any Participant shall not exceed the value of rewards credited in the preceding 12 months.
9. Taxes
- You are responsible for any tax obligations that may arise from participation.
- The Company does not provide tax advice.
10. Program Changes or Termination
- The Program may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time, with or without notice.
- Rewards may expire or be adjusted in accordance with these Terms.
11. Governing Law
- These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflicts of law.
- Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Pima County, Arizona.
