Terms & Conditions
Please carefully review the below terms and conditions prior to purchasing or redeeming an Accor Gift Card.
A. The Accor Gift Card is a stored value card (‘Card’) issued to the purchaser (‘Customer’) by
AAPC Limited, trading as Accor in its capacity as the issuer and manager of the Card
(‘Manager’). The Card allows the Customer to load a dollar value onto the Card (‘Card
Value’) at the point of purchase of the Card.
B. The dollar value that is loaded onto the Card is a pre-payment. The Card should be looked
after by the Customer like cash. It cannot be replaced if lost or stolen. No credit card,
credit line, overdraft protection, or deposit account is associated with the Card.
C. Once it is loaded, the Card can then be used by the Customer or any person in possession of
the Card (‘Holder’) for future purchases of various goods and services, including
accommodation (‘Services’), provided by hotels owned or managed by the Manager or a
related body corporate and other hotels which are privately owned and have a marketing,
management or franchise contract with the Manager or its related body corporate (‘each
a Service Provider’). The dollar value of the Card cannot be redeemed or refunded for
cash, nor can it be used to purchase another Card.
D. The Card can be used to redeem the Card Value principally towards pre-booked
accommodation at publicly available rates (excluding Accor Plus or Accor Vacation Club
rates or benefits, or with contracted, negotiated or third party online rates). Any available
remaining balance on the Card can then be used towards payment or part-payment of the
Holder’s room account, including in-house restaurant dining, or other incidental food and
beverage charges, however no change will be given for the unused balance of the Card.
E. Gift Cards purchased from April 1st 2018 onward, expire 3 years after the date on which it
is issued or activated by the Manager; in line with the Fair Trading Act 1987 (NSW) and the
Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) Sch 2 (‘Australian Consumer Law’). Gift Cards
purchased before April 1st 2018 are not subject to the Fair Trading Act 1987 (NSW) and the
Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) Sch 2 (‘Australian Consumer Law’) and are valid
for 12 months from the date of purchase, as outlined on the back of your Accor Gift Card.
Any unused value remaining on the Card on its expiry is not refundable.
F. The Card remains the property of the Manager at all times.
1. RESERVATIONS FOR SERVICES
Reservations at a Service Provider's hotel are subject to allocation and availability at the
time of reservation.
Blackout dates may apply to publicly available rates, including school holidays and public
holidays, or any special events periods. Room allocations fill quickly during special events,
school holidays, public holidays and weekends and no guarantee can be given that an
allocated room will be available at any Service Provider's hotel or for the days that a
Holder may prefer.
All Card reservations for a Service Provider’s hotel must be made via the Manager's central
reservation department's, or individual hotel reservations' department ('Reservations') via
published telephone numbers and when making a reservation the Holder must advise
Reservations they will be using a Card as payment method, and must quote the relevant
Card number, and must also quote a credit card number.
2. CANCELLING A RESERVATION
If a Holder cancels its reservation, it must do so by contacting Reservations and advising of the
relevant cancellation ('Cancellation Notice'). If the Holder fails to give the Cancellation Notice as
required before the date of arrival at the relevant Service Provider's hotel, pursuant to the
reservation, the Service Provider will be entitled to deduct from the Card Value a cancellation fee
determined in accordance with the Service Provider's usual policy.
3. REDEEMABLE SERVICES
Cards are valid in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji at participating Service Providers. A Card entitles
the bearer to use the Card Value as a payment method for overnight accommodation at the hotel's
'Best Unrestricted Rate' at the time of booking, or any accessible publicly available rates at time of
stay, at any participating Sofitel, SO/, MGallery, Swissotel, Quay West, The Sebel, Pullman, Grand
Mercure, Novotel, Mercure, Ibis or Ibis Styles in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji as listed at the
Manager's website being www.accorhotelsgiftcards.com.au at the specified redemption rate
advised by Reservations at each of the Service Providers. The Card Value cannot be used as
payment at Ibis Budget hotels.
Participating Service Providers may change from time to time and an up-to-date list may be
obtained from the Gift Card co-ordinator appointed by the Manager ('Gift Card Co-ordinator') by
request or online at the Manager’s website being, www.accorhotelsgiftcards.com.au.
Where the Card has been used to acquire Services from a Service Provider that operates a hotel in
New Zealand or Fiji, payment for those Services must be made by reducing the balance of the Card
in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 3. If the amount that a Customer is required to pay
to the Service Provider in New Zealand or Fijian dollars (as applicable) exceeds the Australian
dollar value of the balance left on the Card, the Customer will be required to pay the difference in
New Zealand or Fijian dollars (as applicable) to the Service Provider.
At the time payment is to be made to the Service Provider, the Service Provider will apply the
exchange rate for converting the New Zealand or Fijian dollar price (as applicable) for those
Services into Australian dollars ('Conversion Rate') where:
Conversion Rate for NZD$1 or FJD$1 = Spot Rate (AUD$) x [100% + the Margin],
where:
Spot Rate means the spot rate obtained from www.ozforex.com.au for the number of New Zealand
or Fijian dollars (as applicable) represented by one Australian dollar; and
Margin means the margin stated on our
website http://www.accorhotelsgiftcards.com.au/frequently-asked-questions, as determined by
the Manager from time to time.
The AUD$ amount that is to be deducted from the Card balance is to be determined in accordance
with the following formula:
AUD$ amount = NZD$ or FJD$ amount invoiced x Conversion Rate
The Card balance will then be reduced by the AUD$ amount in accordance with standard
procedures for adjusting Card balances.
The Conversion Rate may differ from exchange rates available at the time a Customer makes a
booking to stay at a New Zealand or Fijian hotel.
For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Manager nor the Service Provider will be liable to the
Customer or Holder where the AUD$ amount actually payable by the Customer or Holder to the
Service Provider differs from the amount the Customer or Holder anticipated would be payable as a
result of currency exchange rate fluctuations that occur between the time the Customer or Holder
makes the booking and the time at which the amount is deducted from the Card balance
4. NO ADDITIONAL VALUE CAN BE PUT ON THE CARD
Additional value cannot be added to a Card. All transactions are declined once a Card balance
reaches zero.
Holders may check the balance of their Card at any time by request to the Gift Card Co-ordinator,
or online at the Manager's website being, www.accorhotelsgiftcards.com.au.
Please note that there may be a delay between the time the Holder makes redemption and the
time the redemption is reflected in the Gift Card balance shown. As a result the balance shown will
not necessarily include all redemptions the Holder has made before its balance enquiry. The Holder
agrees that notwithstanding what the Card balance is shown as, it is not entitled to redeem the
Card for more than:
A. the nominated value of the Card; or
B. the actual remaining balance of the Card.
Any additional value sought by a Holder will require the purchase of a new Card and Card Value, in
accordance with these Terms and Conditions. Any dollar value remaining on a Card may not be
used to purchase an additional Card. The Holder may, however, redeem the Card Value, in
exchange for Services, on two or more separate Cards
5. ORDERS
Cards purchased directly from the Manager must be ordered by use of the current Accor Gift Card
order form or any other written format, including any online form, that the Manager may direct
from time to time ('Order Form')
6. PURCHASE
A Customer must purchase at least AUD$100 Card Value per Card, and thereafter in increments of
AUD$50, but may not purchase more than AUD$500 Card Value for each Card. A purchaser cannot
purchase more than AUD$1,000 in Card Value (irrespective of the number of cards purchased) in
any one transaction. If more than AUD$1,000 Card Value is required, additional cards can be
purchased in separate transaction.
Cards which have been purchased via fraudulent means or by way of stolen credit card details (as
determined in the Manager’s sole discretion) will be deemed to be purchased pursuant to an illegal
transaction and that Card will be registered as stolen and the Card Value will not be honored by
the Manager or any Service Provider
7. DISPATCH AND PAYMENT
Cards ordered directly from the Manager will only be dispatched when full payment is received by
the Manager (including any service or delivery charges) in accordance with these Terms and
Conditions. Refunds and exchanges are not available after full payment is received. All stated
prices are in Australian dollars and inclusive of GST. GST and any other taxes, charges, fees or
duties that are, or may be, levied on the Services or other goods purchased from a Service Provider
must be paid by the Holder at the time that it uses the Card to purchase the Services and/or goods.

1. cheque payable to AAPC Limited, trading as AccorHotels or Accor Gift Cards, allowing 5
business days for clearance;
2. credit card (Amex, Diners, MasterCard, Visa) for email or phone orders.

orders (11 Cards or more) will apply and is payable at the same time as payment is made and
submitted with an Order Form for purchasing a Card. This charge is subject to change. For larger

10 cards can be ordered via the website www.accorhotelsgiftcards.com.au. Please contact the Gift

8. DELIVERY
Cards ordered directly from the Manager will be delivered by Express Post or courier, as arranged
at time of Card purchase to the nominated address and only to addresses within Australia. For
cards to be delivered to New Zealand or Fiji, the Customer should phone (+64) 9 365 0000 or
email giftcards.nz@accor.com. Neither the Manager nor any Service Provider will be held liable for
any loss suffered as a result of a Card being lost or damaged in the normal delivery process. Upon
delivery of the Card to the Customer, the Customer accepts full responsibility for the safekeeping
of the Card.
If an order has not arrived at the Customer’s delivery location within 13 days of the date it is sent,
the Manager may cancel and replace such order provided the Customer submits to the Manager a
properly completed Affidavit of Lost Card within 60 days of the date the Card was sent to the
Customer. Upon receipt of a correctly completed and sworn affidavit and provided a balance
remains on the Card from such order, the Manager will initiate a review procedure. The Card may
or may not be replaced at the Manager’s sole discretion, depending on the outcome of the review.
The Manager will not in any circumstance replace a Card after it has been received by the
Customer.
The Customer is responsible for informing the Manager of the correct contact names and addresses
for invoicing the Customer, and for delivery. Changes to orders must be made in writing and
forwarded by mail, email or fax to the Gift Card Co-ordinator. Changes made via telephone will not
be accepted. Changes to orders will only be possible prior to an Order Form being processed by the
Gift Card Co-ordinator.
9. EXPIRY DATE
The date of issue of each Card will be recorded by the retailer or the Manager (as applicable). The
Fair Trading Act 1987 (NSW) and the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) Sch 2 (‘Australian
Consumer Law’) deem that Gift Cards purchasedon or after April 1st 2018, will be valid for 3
years from the date of issue ('Validity Period'), as detailed on the reverse of each Card. Gift Cards
purchased prior to April 1st 2018 are not subject to the Fair Trading Act 1987 (NSW) and the

months only from the date of issue, or as per the pre-printed date of expiry ('Validity Period'), as
detailed on the reverse of each card. The Card Value must be used during the Validity Period.

To the extent permitted by law, the Manager and the Service Providers make no representations,
warranties or conditions of any kind, express or implied, with respect to the Card. The Manager

Terms and Conditions.
The Manager may cancel a Card at its discretion if the Customer or any Holder breaches any of
these Terms and Conditions.
Where the Holder of the Card is not the Customer, these Terms and Conditions are not intended to
create an obligation or any other rights enforceable by the Holder against the Manager or any
Service Provider.

or conditions or impose obligations upon the Manager and the Service Providers which cannot be
excluded, restricted or modified or cannot be excluded, restricted or modified except to a limited
extent. These Terms and Conditions must be read subject to these statutory provisions.

repair of the goods; the payment of the cost of replacing the goods or of acquiring
equivalent goods; or the payment of the cost of having the goods repaired; or
B. in the case of services, the supplying of the services again; or the payment of the cost of
having the services supplied again.
12. DISPUTE
In the event of any problem or dispute in relation to the Card or any Service purchased
with the Card, the Manager may authorise the Gift Card Co-ordinator to consult with the
Holder in an effort to make alternative arrangements but this does not create an obligation
on the Manager to do so.

about their Card, the Customer or Holder must contact the Gift Card Co-ordinator and
provide details of the dispute or error.
