1. Acceptance of Terms & Platform Overview

Platform Foundation

Binding legal agreement between you and MyLuckyQr governing platform access.

Welcome to MyLuckyQr (hereinafter referred to as the "Platform", "we", "us", or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between MyLuckyQr and any individual or entity accessing or using our services—whether as a participating customer (Customer), an enrolled shop or enterprise (Business / Merchant), staff member, or casual visitor.

By accessing our web application, scanning any MyLuckyQr QR code, claiming or redeeming rewards, registering a business profile, or utilizing our marketing tools, you confirm that:

  • You are at least 18 years old or possess legal parental/guardian authorization.
  • You have the legal authority to bind yourself or the registered business entity.
  • You agree to comply with Indian Information Technology & Consumer Protection laws.
  • You agree to provide accurate, verified phone and identity credentials during verification.

2. User Accounts, Roles & Verification

Authentication

Guidelines on CUSTOMER, BUSINESS, and ADMIN roles, OTP verification, and account security.

MyLuckyQr establishes three distinct user tiers with dedicated permissions and responsibilities:

Tier 1: Customer

Customer Profile & Wallets

Customers register via mobile phone verification using a Secure One-Time Password (OTP). Each customer is uniquely mapped to their phone number, verified wallet, and device identifier. Only one active account per individual is permitted.

Tier 2: Business / Merchant

Merchant Registration & KYC

Merchants register shop details, business categories, location address, GST credentials, operating hours, and catalog services. All merchant applications undergo verification and administrative approval before being publicly listed.

Single-Device Integrity: Using virtual numbers, VoIP lines, disposable emails, or cloning devices to bypass visit limits is strictly prohibited and triggers automated security blacklisting.

3. QR Code Scanning & Store Visits

Core Mechanics

In-store physical visit verification, anti-tampering, dynamic tokens, and scan rules.

MyLuckyQr utilizes cryptographically secure, tokenized QR codes (QRCode tokens) generated directly through the platform.

  • Physical In-Store Presence: QR codes displayed at merchant counters are intended solely for customers physically visiting the establishment. Scanning screenshots, sharing QR tokens remotely via social media, or simulating visits is considered platform abuse.
  • Visit Cooldown & Rate Limits: To ensure genuine merchant footfall, scans are subject to visit velocity throttling (e.g., maximum one qualified reward scan per customer per business within the configured cooldown timeframe).
  • Dynamic Token Expiration: QR codes may be renewed or rotated by merchants or system administrators at any time. Revoked or stale tokens immediately become invalid.

4. Gamified Rewards, Spin Wheel & Claim Codes

Rewards & Redemption

Reward types, random wheel probability, validity periods, and merchant redemption obligations.

Upon logging a valid visit, customers may unlock rewards or participate in the interactive spin wheel. The platform supports multiple reward classifications:

Percentage Discounte.g., 10% - 50% off bill
Fixed Discounte.g., Flat ₹100 or ₹250 off
CashbackCredited to MyLuckyQr Wallet
VoucherRedeemable voucher codes
Free ItemComplimentary dish or gift
Buy More Get OffSpend ₹500 get ₹100 off

Redemption & Claim Code Rules:

  1. Unique Claim Codes: Each won reward issues an alphanumeric claim code (e.g., RC-XXXXXX) stored in your customer wallet with an explicit expiration timestamp (expiresAt).
  2. Merchant Honor Guarantee: The issuing merchant is solely responsible for honoring unexpired, verified claim codes during checkout or bill settlement according to the reward terms specified at creation.
  3. Single-Use Only: Once a claim code is marked USED in the merchant billing portal, it cannot be reused, transferred, or re-credited.
  4. No Direct Cash Exchange: Discounts, vouchers, and reward spins cannot be exchanged for physical cash or legal tender from MyLuckyQr.

5. Loyalty Programs & Milestone Rules

Retention Engine

Visit threshold triggers, loyalty milestones, tiers, and non-transferability of loyalty perks.

Merchants configure custom Loyalty Rules on MyLuckyQr that automatically reward frequent patrons upon reaching specific visit thresholds (e.g., 5th visit reward, 10th visit VIP perk).

  • Accrual Authenticity: Visits accrue strictly upon verified merchant checkout or authenticated QR scan logging. Retroactive manual additions require store owner verification.
  • Timeframe Conditions: Loyalty rules may be configured with timeframe criteria (LIFETIME, MONTHLY, or CUSTOM_DATES). Unredeemed milestone rewards subject to campaign expiry will lapse naturally.
  • Store-Specific Isolation: Loyalty points and visit counters earned at Business A are non-transferable and cannot be redeemed at Business B, unless part of an authorized multi-branch franchise network.

6. Lucky Draws & Sweepstakes Policy

Gamification

Transparent lucky draw entries, random selection algorithms, and fulfillment protocols.

Merchants can conduct periodical Lucky Draws (e.g., Monthly Mega Bumper Draw) through MyLuckyQr to reward patron loyalty:

Transparent Random Allocation

Draw entries are granted through qualifying visits or specific reward claim triggers. Entries are strictly limited to one per customer per draw. The winner selection is computed using algorithmic pseudo-random seed randomization to ensure complete fairness.

* Disclaimer: MyLuckyQr provides the software infrastructure for running lucky draws. The physical or monetary prize promised in any draw is entirely sponsored and fulfilled by the respective merchant.

7. Digital Wallet, Financial Transactions & Invoicing

Payments & GST

INR wallet balances, Razorpay payment processing, merchant subscription plans, and GST invoicing.

All financial transactions on MyLuckyQr are denominated in Indian National Rupees (INR / ₹):

A. Customer Loyalty Wallet

Customer wallet credits reflect earned promotional cashbacks and loyalty bonuses. Wallet credits can be redeemed against eligible merchant purchases. Promotional balances are non-interest bearing and cannot be withdrawn directly to personal bank accounts unless expressly permitted.

B. Merchant Subscriptions & Marketing Credits

Merchants subscribe to tiered plans (Free Trial, Starter, Growth, Enterprise) and purchase broadcast credits for WhatsApp and SMS campaigns. Payments are securely processed via certified PCI-DSS compliant gateways (including Razorpay and UPI).

C. GST Compliance & Invoicing

Applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST) is calculated and levied on all platform subscription fees and service charges. Registered businesses providing valid GSTIN credentials receive formal GST-compliant tax invoices for input tax credit claims.

8. Marketing Campaigns (WhatsApp, SMS & Email)

Communication

Merchant messaging guidelines, TRAI/DND compliance, customer consent, and anti-spam protocols.

Businesses utilize our marketing suite to broadcast reward updates, birthday greetings, and seasonal promotions via WhatsApp, SMS, and Email.

  • Explicit Customer Consent: When customers verify their phone number or opt in during scan registration, they grant permission to receive transactional receipts and promotional communications from that visited merchant.
  • Anti-Spam & Fair Use: Merchants must not dispatch deceptive, predatory, adult, or unsolicited mass communications. Sending abusive content violates our acceptable use policy and results in immediate campaign revocation without credit refund.
  • Opt-Out & Unsubscribe: Customers retain the absolute right to opt out of promotional communications at any time through our preference management settings or by replying STOP to SMS dispatches.

9. Customer Reviews & Community Code of Conduct

Feedback Integrity

Verified visit requirements for reviews, prohibition of paid/coerced feedback, and moderation.

Authentic customer feedback powers the MyLuckyQr local merchant ecosystem. Our review policy mandates:

Verified Visit Linkage

Reviews are tied directly to an authenticated visit record (visitId) to prevent fabricated or competitor-driven false negative ratings.

Zero Coercion Policy

Merchants cannot withhold valid discount rewards to force positive ratings. Defamatory, abusive, hate-filled, or obscene content will be permanently expunged.

10. Anti-Fraud Detection & Account Blacklisting

Security Protocols

Automated fraud scoring, multi-device tracking, OTP rate abuse, and immediate blacklisting criteria.

To protect genuine store owners and honest patrons, MyLuckyQr deploys an automated real-time fraud detection engine (FraudFlag):

Grounds for Immediate Suspension & Permanent Blacklisting:
  • MULTIPLE_ACCOUNTS_SAME_DEVICE: Creating or rotating multiple accounts on a single physical phone to farm spin rewards.
  • EXCESSIVE_OTP_REQUESTS: Scripted brute-forcing or bombing OTP verification endpoints.
  • SUSPICIOUS_IP & PROXIES: Routing automated traffic through known VPNs, data centers, or botnets.
  • DUPLICATE_SCAN ABUSE: Emulating fake scans without physical patronage.

Upon confirmation of fraud, all accumulated claim codes, wallet credits, and active sessions will be terminated immediately without liability.

11. Merchant Warranties & Consumer Protection

Merchant Standards

Product safety, pricing transparency, service delivery, and legal compliance.

Merchants utilizing MyLuckyQr represent and warrant that:

  • Genuine DiscountsThey will not artificially inflate item prices prior to applying MyLuckyQr discounts.
