To join IKEA Family, you must be at least 18 years old, be a resident in the United Kingdom and have a valid email address that your Account will be tied to. IKEA Family is intended for private use only, so you are not allowed to create an Account on behalf of a company (we invite companies to join our IKEA Business Network instead). We only allow you to have one valid Account at a time, and your Account and connected IKEA Family membership card (whether digital and/or physical) cannot be transfered to another person. If the application is illegible (if you use a physical form) or otherwise incomplete, we may not be able to register you as an IKEA Family member. The membership is free of charge.

The minimum technical requirements for using IKEA Family include access to email and an internet-connected device supporting current versions of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge or Safari.

The physical card (if you have one) is the property of IKEA and if you lose it you must immediately report it to IKEA customer support. The IKEA Family membership card is not a payment card.

We trust you to keep your email address, contact details and communication preferences up-to-date and you can update your information at any time by logging into your Account. You are responsible for all activities that occur on your Account and for maintaining the confidentiality of your password.

You are responsible for all user content, including reviews, published listings and any actions that happen under your Account as well as for all products listed sold and transferred by you to buyers on the Marketplace. IKEA is not responsible for any dispute or claim that you may have relating to another user of the Marketplace nor for any tax liabilities or reporting obligations that may apply to you as a user of the IKEA Family services, benefits or rewards.

Duplicate accounts: one individual may only have one IKEA Family membership at any one time. IKEA reserves the right to:

(a)   refuse the opening of a duplicate Account;

(b)   merge duplicate accounts; or

(c)    close additional accounts at any time.

Creating an Account means that we will collect and process your personal data. Please read the IKEA Family Privacy Policy for more information.

We offer a great variety of services, benefits and rewards to our Family members and we are constantly working on new services, incentives and offers to be added to IKEA Family. To enjoy all of this, in the store you must identify yourself as an IKEA Family member with your IKEA Family membership card – digital or physical. On our website ikea.com/ie, on the Marketplace and in the IKEA app you identify by logging in to your Account with your email address and password (or other available log-in options).

Please keep in mind that the IKEA Family services, benefits and rewards may change over time and are subject to availability. Such changes will not affect your pre-existing rights. Current and up-to-date IKEA Family services, benefits and rewards are always made available on our website. Benefits communicated individually (including tailored offers) may be available only to selected members based on certain individual criteria established by IKEA (e.g. interests). Individually communicated benefits are non-transferable unless otherwise stated. Here are some key benefits that may be available to you as an IKEA Family member:

A. Member discounts

From time to time, we will offer member discounts on certain items, product categories, services or food. The discounts are time-limited offers for which specific conditions may apply, and they are always subject to availability.

B. Free hot drink

We offer all IKEA Family members a daily free hot drink (tea or filter coffee) in our restaurants Monday to Friday. 

C. Just-in-case protection

You can insure your new products against accidental damage on the way home and during assembly by swiping your IKEA Family card at the checkout at time of purchase. The benefit only applies to purchases made by IKEA Family members at IKEA Retail stores and online. It can only be claimed in store and not by contacting customer support. The just in case protection does not apply to:

• purchases of IKEA gift cards or purchases made in the IKEA café, IKEA Bistro, IKEA Swedish food market or IKEA restaurant;
• purchases picked, transported, assembled or installed as part of our additional IKEA services. Please refer to our Return policy; https://www.ikea.com/ie/en/customer-service/returns-claims/return-policy/
• cut fabric, or goods ordered to your specification e.g. custom-made worktops or made to order sofas; or
• purchases from Re-shop and Re-use;

To claim under the insurance, your IKEA Family card must be presented together with proof of purchase when returning any damaged item. Products found to be damaged will be replaced on a like for like basis or you will be issued with a refund card to the current selling price of the item. You have 90 days from the date of purchase to claim under the insurance and the benefit is in addition to any other separate insurance provisions you may have. The just in case protection is in addition to our Return policy and will not affect your statutory rights.

D. Digital receipts

When you make a purchase from IKEA Retail as an identified IKEA Family member, we will store the digital receipt and your transaction history for a minimum of three (3) years from the date of your purchase. While we wish we could promise that we will always have your receipts, we know that there may be technical failures affecting the traceability of the digital receipts (this will not affect your preexisting rights under IKEA Family). Nevertheless, we encourage you to maintain adequate proof of purchase. We don’t store receipts for purchases made in our restaurants, cafés, bistros, Swedish Food Market or for unpaid orders.

E. Rewards from IKEA Family 

As an IKEA Family member, you collect points with your IKEA purchases that you can use to choose a reward. To enjoy points, you must have an active Account with the ability to log in. Please note that you cannot collect IKEA Family points on purchases that you make as a member of the IKEA Business Network, as you cannot benefit from both programs at the same time.

a)       How do I collect points?

You collect points on all your purchases from IKEA Retail in the country where you reside (currently, it is not possible to collect points if you shop with IKEA in another country), whether you buy products or services, online or in physical stores, and when you shop in our restaurants and the Swedish Food Market. The only purchases that don’t entitle you to points, are gift card purchases and purchases made on the Marketplace. You can also collect points on a weekly basis by interacting with IKEA in any of the following ways:

●       Logging in to your Account on the web;

●       Creating a wish list and saving it on your Account;

●       Registering for and participating in an eligible IKEA Family event (not limited to once a week);

●       Attending a planning or interior design consultation, online or in store.

Please note that you can only receive points for these interactions once a week for each type of interaction. As an example, you may log in to your Account several times in the same week, or create several wish lists, but you will only receive points the first time you log in and for the first wish list you create. When it is Monday again you can receive new points for the same type of interaction.

Detailed information about the exact number of points that can be collected on purchases and interactions can be found on your Account, through our website or app. IKEA Retail reserves the right to change the number of points that can be collected for purchases and interactions as well as to change the interactions and purchases that allow members to collect points. Information about such changes will be found on your Account. These changes will not affect your preexisting rights.

To collect points for purchases and interactions online, you must be logged in to your Account; and for purchases and activities in the store, you must present a physical or digital IKEA Family membership card. If you don’t identify yourself in a purchase or interaction, you will not be able to do so later, even if you have a receipt or other evidence of the purchase or interaction.

You earn one point for every €5 that you spend. This means that you may collect more points if you purchase several items together compared to if you purchase each item separately. If you collect points for a purchase, but then return the purchased item(s), we will recalculate the purchase and deduct points from your point total, based on the value of the returned item(s). As a result of the recalculation, you may end up losing more points than the item is worth in itself. We know this might be a bit complicated, so here are two examples:                 

i.          You purchase three items (priced €3, €7 and €5) for a total of €15, which means you collect 3 points. If you had purchased each item separately, you would have received only 2 points since no point would have been rewarded for the item costing €3.                

ii.         You purchase three items (priced €3, €7 and €5) for a total of €15, which means you collect 3 points. You then return the item that costs €3 , which means you have spent €12. We will then recalculate your points based on a €12 which means you will only receive 2 points for the purchase. We will deduct 1 point from your current point total even if the returned item has a lower value than €5. 

The return of an item could also lead to a negative point total on your Account. Please note that in case of a negative point total, IKEA will not make any claim against you, nor are there any obligations associated with it.

Points are not refundable or transferable and cannot be exchanged for money. They can only be used as exchange for various rewards that are made available through IKEA Family. Points are valid during a period of 18 months from the date the point is granted to your Account. After this date the points will automatically expire, but don’t worry – if your points are due to expire within the next three (3) months, we will send you an email reminder to make sure you can spend them before they expire.

When you redeem a reward, a coupon will be issued that must be used within 30 days. Once issued, the coupon cannot be converted back into points or changed to an alternative reward.

You can see how many points you have collected, the expiration date of your points as well as the available rewards, in your Account. Points will appear on your Account at the latest forty eight (48) hours after completing a purchase or interacting with the IKEA tools and services. Please note that the purchase is not complete until all products in your order have been delivered to you.

b)       Earning additional points on purchases made with an IKEA Family credit card.

The points you earn on purchases made using your IKEA Family credit card are in addition to the points you earn on purchases. You will need to present your IKEA Family card at check out in store or be logged into your Account when you check out online, as well as paying with an IKEA Family credit card in order to earn IKEA Family points AND the additional points available for purchases made with an IKEA Family credit card.

In order to earn additional points on purchases made with an IKEA Family credit card you must:                

i.          Be an IKEA Family member; and                

ii.          Have an IKEA Family credit card in your name;

If you meet these requirements, you will earn points for purchases made with the IKEA Family credit card as follows:                 

i.          You will earn 1 point for every €5 spent at IKEA Retail (excluding third party services) either online or in store.             

ii.          You will earn 1 point for every €10 spent outside of IKEA Retail at any other retailer.  (this includes purchases of third party services at IKEA Retail and purchases made at IKEA outside of the United Kingdom). 

Making ‘purchases’ means buying goods or services using your IKEA Family credit card.  You will not earn additional points on any other type of transaction made with your IKEA Family credit card, for example balance transfers, withdrawing cash from a cash machine, buying currency or traveller’s cheques, or sending money orders or wire transfers.  You will not earn additional points on interest, fees or charges added to your IKEA Family credit card.

From time to time there may be promotions as part of which you can earn further additional points in connection with the IKEA Family credit card. Information about these promotions will be provided to you as and when required.

If you stop being an IKEA Family member, you can still use your IKEA Family credit card, subject to the terms of your credit card agreement, but you will no longer earn points for the purchases made with your IKEA Family credit card.

Except for earning points for spending through the IKEA Family credit card, you cannot earn points when using any third-party service offered through IKEA.

c)       How can I use my points?

When you have collected enough points and those points have been registered on your Account, the rewards will automatically unlock in your Account. If you find a reward that you like (and assuming you have enough points) you can choose to redeem the reward. The required number of points will then be subtracted from your point total, and you will receive an email with a voucher (in a digital form) confirming your choice. After selecting the reward, it will not be possible to return it and receive the corresponding points back again. Further, it is not possible to redeem points in the transaction in which they are earned.

You can use the voucher on our website, in the IKEA app, in store or by contacting customer support, but please keep in mind that not every voucher can be used in every channel (e.g. if you have redeemed a free delivery, this is for online purchases only and cannot be used in store). The voucher can only be used once and will expire if it is not used within thirty (30) days from the day it was redeemed. This means that the voucher is forfeited as soon as it has been used and unfortunately, for technical reasons, this will apply even if the order is later cancelled by you.

d)       What different rewards can I have?

For the up-to-date list of available rewards that you can choose with your points, please visit your IKEA Family Account.

The rewards available may change over time based, among other reasons, on availability of products and services in our stores but also on customer interests and needs. This means that we cannot guarantee that a specific reward is available at the time you wish to use it. Currently available rewards and the number of points required for each of them, as well as the instructions for choosing and selecting a reward, are available in your Account. Once the points have been used to select a reward, they will no longer be available in your Account and the reward cannot be refunded or returned. Points can only be used to redeem rewards and cannot be used as partial payment for the purchase of items or services.

F.    The Marketplace

a)       What is the Marketplace?

All IKEA Family members are invited to use the online marketplace for second-hand IKEA products, made available at secondhand.ikea.com and operated by INBAB (the “Marketplace”). IKEA Retail is not responsible for the provision of any services on the Marketplace or its operations.

The Marketplace is provided as a service to IKEA Family members and is a place where IKEA Family members interested in buying or selling genuine second-hand IKEA furniture and home furnishing accessories (not counterfeit or replica items), with the exception of IKEA Food products and home appliances (such as refrigerators, ovens and air purifiers) (the “Products”), can connect and make transactions. All Products much be safe and in usable condition (i.e. fit for the purposes for which goods of the same type would normally be used). When using the Marketplace, buyers and sellers enter into a contract for the sale and purchase of Products directly between themselves, and neither INBAB nor IKEA Retail is a party to such sale or purchase.

b)       Selling an item on the Marketplace

You can sell any Product on the Marketplace with the exception of Products that have been subject to a product recall. Information about products that have been subject to a recall can be found in the following locations:

• https://www.ccpc.ie/consumers/product-safety/product-recalls/ 

You are not allowed to use the Marketplace to sell non-IKEA products, and you can only list products that you actually own or have a right to sell.

If you want to list a Product for sale, you should use the search catalogue available on the Marketplace and type in the name of the product or use the image search. After choosing the product from the list, you must upload at least two photos of the Product and answer a series of brief questions about the condition, quality and appearance of the Product (including any defects or alterations). Make sure that your photos accurately represent your Product and that you give true answers to the questions. If your listing is somehow misleading, this may trigger the Buyer Protection (see subsection c) below) and the buyer may be entitled to a refund. Certain information from the IKEA product catalogue will be automatically added to your listing such as product measurements, product description and sometimes product materials and care and assembly instructions. If you cannot find the product in our catalogue, it could be because you have an old IKEA product that is not in our digital library. If this is the case, you will have to create a custom item listing which will be subject to manual review.

All photos uploaded must comply with the following requirements:       

• The Product must be in focus and represented as accurately as possible.
• The photos must clearly show all Product defects or damages.
• Avoid including non-IKEA products in the photos
• Do not include people in the photos
• Do not include abusive substances in the photos such as alcohol, cigarettes etc.
• Do not include religious or political messages in the photos such as big signs, posters or symbols.

Please note that cross-border sales between the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom are not permitted.

All listings are reviewed by the automatic moderation system on the Marketplace to verify compliance with these Terms and Conditions. If the content is flagged by the system, a human moderator will review the listing and will contact you via the Marketplace chat function (with an email notification sent to your email address) to explain the issue and the required corrections. You will be asked to update the listing via the Marketplace chat function after which it will be reviewed by the moderator. You will have thirty (30) days to update the listing. If you fail to update the listing within the given timeframe and/or your updated listing is not in line with the above requirements, the moderator will remove the listing. Non-approved listings that remain unresolved will be permanently deleted from the system on a monthly basis (30 days from their submission).

The Marketplace will generate an automatic price recommendation for your Product based on a fair value, considering things such as the condition and quality of the Product and the original retail price for the Product. You can choose to use the recommended price or set your own. Please keep in mind that INBAB makes a price recommendation and that there may be buyers who are willing to pay more, or less, for your Product. Please note however that the maximum price that you can apply to your Product is €1,995. There is also the option of giving your Product away for free, which means you will not receive any financial compensation for your Product.

As long as a buyer has not reserved your listed Product by paying for it, you can withdraw your listing at any time. The price is agreed between yourself and the buyer without any involvement from INBAB.  

When the buyer has reserved the Product, the payment is held by our payment service provider until the Product has been picked up by the buyer, and for an additional period of 48 hours from the moment the buyer confirms – by clicking the “accept” button (or similar) in buyer’s account. By clicking the “accept” button, the buyer confirms that the Product has successfully been picked up or received from the seller.  

After the expiry of the forty eight (48) hours, the payment will be released to you and will appear in your cash balance (e-wallet) on the Marketplace. If, within the forty eight (48) hours, the buyer initiates a refund request, the release of the payment will be suspended until INBAB decides on the refund request – the detailed rules regarding the Buyer Protection procedure are found in the specific Buyer Protection Policy available here.

The buyer has access to a “cancel” button within the Marketplace, which can be used to cancel the purchase at any time before the Product has been accepted (i.e. before clicking the accept button). This option is available if, for example, the buyer is unable to arrange a pick-up with you. As a seller, you don’t have a cancel button. However, you may contact the Marketplace customer support to request cancellation of the purchase. This may be needed if, for example, you have already sold the Product on another marketplace or if the buyer fails to pick up the Product.

If the buyer fails to confirm the receipt of the Product, you should contact the Marketplace customer support and they will remind the buyer to confirm the acceptance of the Product on the Marketplace. If you don’t contact customer support to request the payment to be released, the payment will automatically be refunded to the buyer after ninety (90) days.

As a seller, you will receive the payment to your Marketplace account balance (e- wallet). Whenever you want, you can request the total balance of your e-wallet to be paid out to you, either through a bank transfer of the full amount, or with a 15% top-up in the form of an IKEA digital refund card. The IKEA digital refund card is only available as an option if the value of your e-wallet is below €250. Please be aware that you cannot split the payout and that your total e-wallet account balance will be paid either as a bank transfer or as a digital refund card. 

If you choose bank transfer, our payment service provider will require certain KYC (know-your-customer) information from you before they can make the first pay-out (please see more information in Section f) of these Terms and Conditions). You may be requested to provide such information on a regular basis to the payment service provider. If you choose the digital refund card it will be sent to the email address that you have used to register your IKEA Family account and can be used in IKEA stores and on ikea.com/ie but not for purchases on the Marketplace. Please also note that if you go for the digital refund card option, this will be considered as a separate purchase from INBAB and is subject to your statutory withdrawal right. If you wish to exercise this right, you must contact the Marketplace customer support within fourteen (14) days, and your cash refund will correspond to the purchase price, excluding the 15% top-up. The detailed terms and conditions for the use of the digital refund card (e.g. expiration date and territory restrictions) are available here. 

c)       Buying an item on the Marketplace

To purchase a listed item, you add the Product to the cart, proceed to checkout, select a payment method and complete the payment. The Product is then reserved for you and the payment is held by our payment service provider, as a buyer protection measure, while you arrange for pickup with the seller. INBAB is not responsible for arranging any shipping or delivery of your purchased Product. The payment is released to the seller forty eight (48) hours after you have clicked the accept button for the Product in your Account. Clicking the accept button means that you confirm that you have successfully picked up the Product or received it from the seller. You must accept the Product in your Account as soon as you pick it up. The seller may ask you to do so in connection with handing over the Product to you.

You can use the bidding functionality to propose another price than the price offered by the seller. A bid is only valid for twenty four (24) hours and only becomes binding when it is accepted by the seller.

For each transaction, you will pay the following:

1.     Purchase price of the Product (or the price agreed with the seller if the bidding functionality is used);

2.     Shipping costs (if any); and

3.     The Buyer Protection fee equal to 5% of the purchase price.

Keep in mind that you are not purchasing anything from neither INBAB nor IKEA Retail, but from another IKEA Family member acting as a consumer. This means that consumer protection legislation doesn’t apply and that you have no legal right to return the Product and get a refund under applicable consumer protection legislation. The statutory right to withdraw from a distance sale contract doesn’t apply to transactions between consumers. 

d)       Buyer Protection

INBAB offers buyer protection services on all purchases, which is a purchase support designed to give buyers peace of mind when shopping (the “Buyer Protection”). Information on how the Buyer Protection works is set out in the specific Buyer Protection Policy which is available here.

Buyer Protection is a mandatory feature of the Marketplace. It means that all transactions are covered by Buyer Protection, with the exception of Products that a seller chooses to give away for free. Please be aware that if a seller and a buyer make payment arrangements outside of the Marketplace, they will not enjoy the benefits of the Buyer Protection. The buyer protection fee (5% of the agreed Product price) is automatically added on all purchases and includes:

• Listing reviews: INBAB ensures that only authentic IKEA Products in usable condition are listed for sale on the Marketplace.
• Seller verification: The Marketplace is exclusive to IKEA Family members.
• Secure payments: All payments go through our payment service provider, which limits the risk for fraud and scams. The payment service provider holds the money for an additional forty eight (48) hours from the moment the buyer has accepted the item in the buyer’s account.
• Dispute resolution and refund: It is the buyer’s responsibility to thoroughly inspect the Product when picking it up. However, if for any reason – and within forty eight (48) hours from clicking the “accept” button – the buyer later discovers that the Product significantly differs from the information in the listing, the Buyer Protection allows the buyer to send a refund request to the Marketplace customer support. The Buyer Protection may entitle the buyer to a refund of the Product purchase price, the buyer protection fee and the delivery fee (if any).

Buyer Protection is designed to make buyers and sellers feel safe, but it works alongside – not instead of – their existing legal rights. This means that sellers and buyers keep all their statutory rights under applicable law, and that our decision doesn't affect their ability to pursue other remedies available to them by law.

INBAB provides the Buyer Protection to help resolve issues quickly, but INBAB doesn’t become a party to the transaction. The buyer and seller still maintain their direct relationship regarding any return arrangements not covered by the Buyer Protection.

e)      Taxes 

INBAB is responsible for any tax obligations that it may have as an operator of the Marketplace. INBAB will not be liable for any tax obligation incumbent on you as a user of the Marketplace, in particular, for any taxes arising from your purchase or sale of Products. By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions you confirm that you are responsible for filing the relevant tax returns and paying the relevant taxes arising from your purchase or sale of Products on the Marketplace. You also undertake to provide INBAB with any information it may be requested to collect from you for the purpose of complying with INBAB’s own tax and/or financial reporting obligations to the relevant authorities.

Please note that under current rules, INBAB has an obligation to annually give a statement of earnings and deductions to the tax authorities for all individuals that have carried out thirty (30) or more transactions or sold for an annual value of more than €1,700 on the Marketplace. When you create your 30th listing, or post a listing that, if sold, will lead to your annual sales on the Marketplace exceeding €1,700 , INBAB will send you a request for the needed information (e.g. full name and address, date of birth and tax registration number or place of birth) to ensure that INBAB will be able to comply with its obligations towards the tax authorities. If you don’t respond within the specified time, INBAB will temporarily suspend you from the Marketplace until you have provided INBAB with the requested information. Please note that these rules, including the criteria may be changed by the Irish authorities from time to time and it is your responsibility to keep up-to-date on such changes. INBAB reserves the right to adjust its processes as it considers necessary to comply with any changes to these rules, without notice to you. 

f)       Payment

INBAB uses an authorised third party payment service provider (“PSP”) to process online payments for the purchases made on the Marketplace. The PSP offers one or more payment methods, such as debit/credit card, direct bank transfer, online payment initiated through the PSP or digital wallets (such as Apple Pay and Google Pay). The PSP holds the money and releases it to the seller when the buyer has accepted the Product, and also manages refunds to eligible buyers. INBAB doesn’t handle any payments itself and doesn’t have access to the funds to be paid by the buyer. The available payment methods are displayed at checkout. For the Marketplace, Stripe is the PSP (see www.stripe.com).

The provisions below do not affect, limit or exclude the statutory consumer protection provisions applicable to you.

The PSP may require you to provide certain information to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including anti-money laundering and identity verification requirements. You acknowledge that providing such information may be necessary to receive payment. By using the Marketplace, you also agree to comply with the applicable terms and conditions of the PSP available here Consumer Terms of Service and the selected payment method, including, for the Marketplace, the Stripe Connected Accounts Agreement (https://stripe.com/en-se/legal/connect-account) as amended from time to time.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, INBAB is not responsible for any delays, failures, or issues related to the payment services provided by the PSPs or payment method.

All payments for Products sold on the Marketplace must be made through the payment options provided. It is strictly prohibited to request or propose payment through any other means.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, INBAB reserves the right to pause payments, suspend your Account, or take other appropriate action if you fail to comply with this subsection (f) or the applicable terms and conditions of the PSP or payment method available. Fraudulent, suspicious, or unlawful activity may also result in your Account being suspended and reported to the relevant authorities. Please note that a decision to suspend your Account is always made by INBAB and IKEA Retail together, as it will affect your other rights and benefits as an IKEA Family member.

To the maximum extent permitted by the applicable law you are solely responsible for any losses, disputes, chargebacks, or other liabilities arising from fraudulent or unauthorised transactions made through your Account. INBAB may recover such amounts from you, including by offsetting them against any current or future payments due to you.

You may not use the Marketplace or payment services for any activity that is illegal, deceptive, or otherwise restricted under the PSP’s or payment method rules. A list of restricted activities may be found on the provider's website: Prohibited and Restricted Businesses | Stripe or provided upon request.

You acknowledge and agree that INBAB may share your information with the PSP, payment method provider and relevant authorities for the purposes of fraud prevention, compliance with agreements and legal obligations, processing of personal data and payment processing. In addition, you acknowledge and agree that INBAB may take certain actions in relation to the payment processing in order to fulfil INBAB’s legal obligations. 

As an IKEA Family member, you may receive a proposal from IKEA Retail to share your experience of purchasing from IKEA Retail and using our products and services, to be posted on our website, Marketplace and the IKEA app. Please note that your review should only relate to the features and properties of our IKEA products and services. You acknowledge and agree that your ratings and reviews will be published anonymously but with an abbreviation of your name or a nickname, such as only the first name or initials.

All buyers on the Marketplace will have the opportunity to rate and review the sellers that they have engaged with, once the transaction has been completed. By using the Marketplace, you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for the ratings and reviews that you give, and that other buyers will be able to rate and give a review of you. The statements, information and ratings contained in any such review must be fair and honest (and comply with section 8 below) and are solely the opinion of the one submitting the review.  

You have no right to remove or correct a review that another IKEA Family member has made about you. However, if you find a specific review about you to be incorrect or unfair, you can reach out to the Marketplace customer support to give your explanation. IKEA reserves the right to decide on any corrective measures of specific reviews. We also reserve the right to not publish or to later delete (in whole or in part) reviews that are in breach of applicable legislation or violating these Terms and Conditions (according to section 8 below). 

When you use the Marketplace and interact with INBAB and other IKEA Family members, or if you publish a review on our website, you will upload photos, write descriptions, comments, messages, ratings and reviews etc. and otherwise create different type of content (all such content hereinafter referred to as “User Content”). You hereby acknowledge that you are fully responsible and liable for all User Content that you publish, and specifically agree to:

a)     not share User Content which is illegal, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortuous, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, that may be invasive of another’s right of privacy or publicity, is racially or ethnically hateful, or otherwise objectionable;

b)     only share User Content that you have a right to share (e.g. don’t share any information that you have an obligation to keep confidential);

c)      not share User Content (e.g. photos of or information) about someone else (except within the context of ratings and reviews on the Marketplace), unless you have secured that you have that person’s consent to share the information;

d)     not share User Content (especially photos) that infringes any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other intellectual property or proprietary rights of any party;

e)     not use the comment and/or discussion possibilities in a way that adversely affects the usability of the Marketplace for other users (e.g. shouting BY USING ALL CAPS, or flooding the Marketplace by listing the same Product repeatedly); and

f)      not use the Marketplace for the purpose of promoting your religious beliefs or political opinions, sending unwanted emails, comments or other content (‘spam’) and other types of unsolicited advertising and solicitation.

IKEA reserves the right to block or remove, at any time and after having issued a prior warning, User Content and Accounts that contain content which is in violation of these Terms and Conditions or applicable law.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you hereby grant to IKEA a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty free, perpetual license to use and modify such User Content (except for messages), and create, use and dispose of derivative works created based on the User Content, for any purpose (especially for promotional and marketing purposes), including a right to reproduce, manufacture, copy, adapt, crop, modify, shorten or combine with other material, translate, perform, display, publish, sell, broadcast, transmit, or communicate to the public by any means and in any media whether now known or unknown and to distribute your User Content.

Although we do our best to review User Content, you understand and agree that you may be exposed to User Content that is inaccurate, objectionable, inappropriate or otherwise unsuited to your purpose. If you identify any conduct or User Content of a fraudulent, offensive, illegal or abusive nature, please report it through the available support chat so that IKEA can, where appropriate, take the necessary measures to ensure that our website, IKEA app and Marketplace are safe spaces for our IKEA Family members. As explained in section 9 below, all User Content is subject to content moderation.

Messages that are exchanged between buyers and sellers on the Marketplace are not private and shall be exchanged only for the purpose of the transactions. They are subject to moderation by INBAB to keep the Marketplace secure. INBAB may also access the messages in case of disputes between Marketplace users.

We use manual and automatic intervention to ensure that content on our website, IKEA app and Marketplace do not violate laws or these Terms and Conditions. We also offer the ability for users of the Marketplace to report issues directly through the Marketplace or to the Marketplace customer support. We determine the appropriate actions for moderation on a case-by-case basis. 

We know it might seem obvious, but when using the IKEA Family services, benefits and rewards, you must comply with applicable legislation and respect these Terms and Conditions. This means, among other things, that you must not:

a)     harass, stalk threaten, scam or otherwise intentionally mislead or deceive other IKEA Family members, or copy their photos or other User Content and represent it as your own;

b)     misuse or tamper with our website, Marketplace or the IKEA app, or the features and services that you get access to through your IKEA Family membership (e.g. hack our website, introduce viruses, trojans, worms, logic bombs or other technologically harmful material or carry out denial of service attacks etc.) or otherwise mess with our technologies or functionalities;

c)      copy or download any content from our websites or apps unless you are expressly authorised to do so;

d)     use software and/or data mining tools (including but not limited to crawling and screen taping) on the Marketplace;

e)     intentionally or unintentionally violate any applicable local, national or international law, rule or regulation; or

f)      use the Marketplace to promote your own business and/or to sell any items or services, whether physical or digital, in breach of these Terms and Conditions.

As stated above, you are the holder of all rights in and to your User Content that you publish on our websites, apps or on the Marketplace.  

If you find that any content on our websites, apps or Marketplace (whether User Content or otherwise) infringes your intellectual property rights, you can flag the content by contacting us through the relevant support chat. Please note that you should only flag content if you are the rights holder or an agent thereof.

With the exception of User Content, all title, ownership, rights, and intellectual property and industrial property rights in and to IKEA Family, our websites and apps and the IKEA brand shall remain with IKEA, other companies within Ingka Group, our franchisor, Inter IKEA Systems B.V. or our licensors. Your use of any of our IKEA Family services, benefits or rewards does not in any way imply the granting of any rights, authorisations, or licenses of any kind to the IKEA trademark, IKEA logo or any of the content on any IKEA websites or apps.

IKEA reserves the right to take appropriate legal action, including judicial and extrajudicial actions, against you for any infringement of the intellectual and/or industrial property rights owned by or licensed to IKEA or any company in Ingka Group. 

When browsing our websites and using our apps, you may find links to other non-IKEA websites or third party content. Links to third party websites and content are provided for your convenience only, and IKEA makes no representations or warranties with respect to any third party websites linked to or from an IKEA website or app. All access to linked third party websites is at your own risk and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, IKEA will not be liable in any way for any damages arising from your access to such websites. 

While we will do our best to ensure the availability and function of all the IKEA Family services, benefits and rewards, interruptions will happen from time to time for both foreseen maintenance and unforeseen events. If possible, we will try to inform you about planned interruptions, and we will plan downtime outside of peak usage hours. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, IKEA will not be liable for any losses suffered by the interruption in the availability of our websites or apps, delay or failure to perform resulting from any causes whatsoever.

IKEA cannot guarantee the absence of viruses or other elements that could damage or alter the user’s computer system (both hardware and software) and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, doesn’t assume any liability arising from it. It is the user’s responsibility to have appropriate tools for the detection of viruses or any other harmful computer element. 

We may terminate or suspend your Account, or restrict access to certain IKEA Family services if (a) your use of the IKEA Family membership is in breach of these Terms and Conditions or applicable legislation; or (b) your use of the IKEA Family membership is fraudulent, unauthorised or abusive of our services, benefits and rewards.

In such instance, IKEA will contact you via email to notify you and to provide you with a clear explanation for the restricted access, suspension or termination of your Account (as the case may be), including the expected period for suspension or restricted access (as relevant). We may also report any breach or illegal activity to the relevant law enforcement authorities and take any necessary action. The payment service provider may also hold payment (in transactions on the Marketplace) in transit if there is a suspicion that you are acting in breach of these Terms and Conditions.

Should you wish to challenge a decision made by IKEA regarding the restriction of your access to any IKEA Family service or the suspension or termination of your Account, you have the option to submit a complaint. You will find information on how and where to submit such complaint in the notification from IKEA. Note that a complaint must be submitted to IKEA within six (6) months from the day you receive the notification.

If we see that you frequently submit notices or complaints that are manifestly unfounded, we may suspend, for a reasonable period of time, and after having issued a prior warning, the processing of your notices and complaints submitted to IKEA. When assessing whether certain behaviour constitutes misuse and deciding on the duration of the suspension, we will take into account, among other things, the severity of misuse and the number of notices or complaints submitted by you.

In addition to the above, we may also terminate your Account if your Account has been inactive for more than three (3) years. By inactivity, we mean that you have not interacted with IKEA, such as logged in to your Account, opened our emails or made a purchase which has been registered on your Account.

When your IKEA Family membership is terminated, all rights and obligations under these Terms and Conditions will automatically terminate except for rights of action occurring prior to termination, payment obligations, and sections entitled “Intellectual property”, “Limitation of liability” and “Governing law and disputes”. If any rewards or benefits awarded to you under these Terms and Conditions are subsequently found to have been issued as a result of or in connection with a breach of these Terms and Conditions or any fraud or unauthorised use of your Account, IKEA reserves the right to cancel or reverse any reward voucher or points or other benefit issued to you.

If you decide that you no longer want to be an IKEA Family member you can terminate your membership, without cost, at any time by deleting your Account within the Account settings on our website or in the IKEA app or by contacting our customer support. If you do so, you will no longer be able to benefit from the IKEA Family membership and its benefits and rewards. Any benefits accrued at the date of cancellation will be forfeited and may not be redeemed following cancellation. Please note that uninstalling the IKEA app from your mobile device does not mean that you have terminated your Account.

Please keep in mind that the obligations you may have in any ongoing transactions on the Marketplace will remain, even if you terminate your Account, and that you are responsible for e.g. sending a sold Product to the buyer or confirming receipt of something you have purchased. For this reason, we recommend that you make sure all your transactions have been successfully completed before terminating your Account and we reserve the right to deny your termination request until you have completed all pending transactions. User Content that you have created, such as ratings and reviews will not be automatically deleted if you terminate your membership, but will still be published on our website and app. Please also remember that you are always welcome back to IKEA Family.

Limitation of liability: To the extent permitted by applicable legislation, IKEA will not be liable to you for any loss or damages of any kind, including without limitation:

a)     for any indirect, special or consequential damages, arising out of or relating to your Account; or

b)     in connection with the taking or use of any benefits, rewards or offers provided under these Terms and Conditions; or

c)      arising out of your failure to comply with these Terms and Conditions.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes, restricts or modifies rights you have at law.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate IKEA Family at any time for valid reasons only, such as adapting IKEA Family to a new technical environment, for other important operational reasons, in the event of changes to the services provided under these Terms and Conditions, or changes in law. However, this will not affect the rights we have acquired prior to the termination or suspension of IKEA Family. In the event of suspension or termination of IKEA Family, we will notify you in advance.

We may assign, subcontract and otherwise transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms and Conditions to any other legal person, but this will not affect your preexisting rights or our obligations under these Terms and Conditions.

These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between you and IKEA relating to your Account and supersedes any and all previous agreements, promises and understandings between us, whether written or oral (including any previous versions of these Terms and Conditions).

A waiver of any right or remedy is only effective if given in writing and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent right or remedy.

Each of the clauses of these Terms and Conditions operates separately. If any court or competent authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining clauses will remain in full force and effect.

These Terms and Conditions are governed by Irish law. This means that your access to, and use of our website, app and the Marketplace and any dispute or claim arising out or in connection therewith (including non-contractual disputes or claims) will be governed by Irish Law.

You can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms and Conditions in the Irishcourts. If you live in Scotland, you can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms and Conditions in either the Scottish or the Irishcourts. If you live in Northern Ireland, you can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms and Conditions in either the Northern Irish or the Irishcourts.

If you are resident in the UK in the EU, and we direct the website and/or the Marketplace to (and/or pursue our commercial or professional activities in relation to the  website and/or the Marketplace in) the country in which you are resident, you will benefit from any mandatory provisions of the law in the country in which you are resident. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions affects your rights as a consumer to rely on such mandatory provisions of local law. 

You collect points on all your purchases, whether you buy products or services (excluding third party services), online or in physical stores, and when you shop in our restaurants and the Swedish Food Market, when presenting your IKEA Family card at the checkout or when you are logged into your account online, and for specified interactions. Detailed information about the exact number of points that may be earned on purchases and interactions can be found on your IKEA Family Account.

Earning points on purchases: if you scan your IKEA Family card or membership details at the time of making an in store or online IKEA purchase, you will earn points based on the pound value of the eligible purchase. You will collect one point for every €5 spent.

Earning points for interactions: You can also collect points on a weekly basis by interacting with IKEA in any of the following ways:

• Logging in to your IKEA Family Account on the web;
• Creating a wish list and saving it on your IKEA Family account;
• Participating in an eligible IKEA Family event upon previous registration; or
• Booking and attending an online planning appointment (kitchen planning appointments excluded).  

Please note that the ability to book and attend online planning appointments is subject to the availability of appointments at IKEA Republic of Ireland. Please ensure that an available appointment is booked with IKEA Republic of Ireland before attending. Points can only be earned for the following online planning appointments:        

• Bedroom (including sleep, bedroom & wardrobe and children’s bedrooms);        
• Living room (including living room storage and sofas); and      
• Bathroom.
• Interior design service

Please note that you can only receive points for these interactions once a week for each type of interaction. As an example, you may log in to your IKEA Family Account several times in the same week, but you will only receive points for the first login. When it is Monday again you can receive new points for the same type of interaction.

Restrictions: You are not entitled to earn points when:       

• purchasing IKEA gift cards; and 
• making purchases as an IKEA Business Network customer.

Points are non-refundable and non-transferrable and cannot be exchanged for money. They can only be used as exchange for various rewards that are made available by IKEA Family.

In the event of the death of the IKEA Family account holder, the points will be lost and are not able to be transferred to another IKEA Family member.

Use your IKEA Family card or IKEA Family Account details for all purchases and interactions: To earn points for purchases and interactions online, you must be logged in to your IKEA Family Account; and for purchases and activities in the store, you must present a physical or digital IKEA Family card. If you don’t identify yourself in a purchase or interaction, you will not be able to do so later, even if you have a receipt or other evidence of the purchase or interaction. The identification is important since, for technical reasons, it is not possible for us to assign points to IKEA Family members who were not identified at the time of purchase or interaction. The identification of the IKEA Family card/logging into the IKEA Family Account is the sole responsibility of the customer.

Returning your purchases: If you earn points for a purchase, but then return the purchased item(s), we will deduct points from your points balance, based on the value of the returned item(s). You earn one point for every 5 EURO that you spend, which means that you may end up with fewer points if you make a purchase and then return one of the purchased items, compared to if you had made the same purchase without this particular item. The return of an item could also lead to a negative points balance on your IKEA Family Account. Please note that in case of a negative points balance, IKEA will not make any claim against you, nor are there any obligations associated with it. You will receive a refund equivalent to the price you paid for the product and no replacement or refund of points or equivalent voucher will be offered.

Applying points:  Points will be credited to your IKEA Family Account as follows: 

      (a)     in the case of the purchase of IKEA products, within 48 hours of the time of purchase;

      (b)    in the case of any of any other eligible interaction, within 48 hours after the eligible interaction or confirmed attendance at the eligible event or appointment (as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, IKEA Family members that register for, but do not attend an eligible IKEA Family event will not receive the relevant points.

Please note that a purchase is not complete until all products in your order have been received.

Choosing a reward: When you have collected enough points and those points have been registered on your IKEA Family Account (which can take up to 48 hours), the rewards will automatically unlock so they can be chosen in your IKEA Family Account. If you find a reward that you like (and assuming you have enough reward points) you can choose to redeem the reward. The required number of points will then be subtracted from your points balance, and you will receive an email with a voucher code confirming your choice. After selecting the reward, it will not be possible to return it and receive the corresponding points again.

Reward voucher validity period: The voucher code can only be used once and will expire if it is not used within thirty (30) days from the day it was issued. This means that the voucher code is forfeited as soon as it has been used and unfortunately, for technical reasons this will apply even if the order is later cancelled. Vouchers will expire at 11:59pm on the relevant day. If the voucher expires, no replacement or refund of points or equivalent reward will be offered. A reward can only be redeemed by following these instructions.

No part payment: Points cannot be used as partial payment for purchases of items or services, unless such purchase is part of a claimed reward.

What different rewards can I have?

Below are some examples of rewards that you can choose with your points (for the up-to-date list, please visit your IKEA Family Account:

• Discounted delivery on an order
• A discounted complete meal or and cake break
• Discount on future purchase products (excluding products from the Re-shop Re-use)

Changes to points: IKEA reserves the right to:

      (a)    change the rewards available based, among other reasons, on availability of products and services in our stores but also on customer interests and needs. This means that we cannot guarantee that a specific reward is available at the time you wish to use it.

      (b)    change the types of interactions which are eligible for earning points.

      (c)     change the number of points which may be earned in connection with any eligible interaction or purchase.

      (d)    modify the requirements for earning points in connection with eligible interactions.

      (e)    add or remove rewards which may be redeemed with points; and/or

      (f)      change how many points are needed to choose and enjoy rewards.

The currently available rewards and the number of points required for each of them, as well as the instructions for choosing and selecting a reward, are available in your IKEA Family Account on the web and via the app.
