A rebate differs from a lower checkout price: it is ordinarily earned and calculated after specified conditions are satisfied. Its treatment can depend on order completion, exclusions, period and settlement rules. A promotional rebate must never be assumed unless an active, published Distribution Hub programme explicitly offers it.
Key facts
- Rebates are not the same as product-level discounts
- Failed or refunded purchases may be excluded
- An advertised rebate needs clear eligibility terms
