Terms of Service

These Terms govern your use of Campus Deals at getcampusdeals.com. Campus Deals helps people discover local offers in Tallahassee. By using the site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

What Campus Deals does

We organize publicly advertised local specials and, where available, information submitted by verified business owners. Campus Deals is an independent discovery service. We do not sell the goods or services advertised in a deal, issue third-party vouchers, process a student’s purchase at a business, or guarantee that a business will honor an offer. Unless we expressly say otherwise, a listing does not mean a business, university, or other organization sponsors or endorses Campus Deals.

Deals, prices, and eligibility

Offers can change, end, sell out, or have restrictions that are not reflected immediately. A “verified” label means we checked a source at the stated time; it is not an in-person guarantee. “Needs Verification” means we cannot confidently confirm that an offer is current. Check the linked source and confirm price, hours, availability, eligibility, and any student-ID requirement with the business before relying on a listing. You are responsible for complying with age restrictions. Alcohol-related offers are only for people who meet the applicable legal drinking age.

Accounts and saved items

A basic public identity is part of student onboarding. “I’m In” and Crew RSVPs express planning interest only, not attendance, purchase, or reported deal use. Quick replies are ordinary private messages. Earned social badges, when separately opted into sharing, reflect distinct friends joining plans rather than raw send counts and do not confer monetary value. Following people, messaging mutual friends, joining Crews, showing your Favorite Spot, and sharing picks are optional. Your username lets other signed-in members find you; mutual friends can exchange messages and deal cards and join private Crew plans. Your saves, interests, Want to Go items, deal-use history, and savings are not shared automatically. You may choose specific public spots and optionally share earned milestone labels or chosen interests on your profile; milestone labels reflect self-reported deal use and estimated savings, not independently verified purchases. Recipients can read direct messages, and active Crew members can read Crew messages and plans; they may disclose content outside Campus Deals, so share thoughtfully. Messages are stored by Campus Deals and are not end-to-end encrypted. Reported content may be reviewed by a restricted administrator for safety and moderation. Do not harass, threaten, impersonate, spam, post unlawful or infringing material, or publish another person’s private information. We may review reports and remove content or restrict access when needed. “I’m In” is a social indication, not a reservation or a guarantee of deal availability. Friends-related updates are currently shown in the app; Campus Deals does not currently send phone push notifications or student deal-alert emails.

A verified account is required for the student deal app. Student onboarding creates a basic public CampusDeals identity with a display name, username, and chosen avatar; your email, private saves, interests, and activity are not part of that public identity. An account lets you save deals across devices and may allow approved business management. Give accurate account information, safeguard your credentials, and tell us if you suspect unauthorized use. We may suspend access when reasonably necessary to protect the service or other users. Your account settings explain how to request deletion; deletion of a personal account does not erase independent public business listings or records that must be retained for legitimate legal, financial, or security reasons. See our Privacy Policy.

Account access and shared links

Normal student browsing, discovery, personalization, and social features require an authenticated account with a verified email and the minimum CampusDeals identity: a display name, unique username, and preset avatar. Existing verified accounts do not need to verify again merely because they return. Accounts missing required identity information are asked to finish it. Interests, location access, friends, Crews, Favorite Spot sharing, and public Picks remain optional. Business management and administrator access follow their separate authorization rules.

Terms, Privacy, Contact, authentication and recovery pages, and limited previews of legitimate shared deals remain accessible without joining. A public preview is not access to the full catalog. External sharing sends a public deal link and deal context through your chosen device or app; that provider controls delivery and previews. Shared links do not identify the sender. We preserve a validated destination through sign-in, verification, and profile setup so you can return to the deal you opened.

Business listings, claims, and submissions

Basic listings and claims are free. A claim does not itself confer editing access: Campus Deals reviews whether the claimant is authorized to represent the business. Approval of ownership is separate from buying a subscription. An approved owner can update basic business information. Active Partner and Partner Pro subscriptions enable owner-submitted deals, scheduling, product/deal photo uploads, and their included private business analytics. Both paid plans support a separate product photo for each eligible managed deal. Uploads require permission to use the image. If paid entitlement ends, existing photos may remain stored but paid deal-photo presentation and upload/change/remove controls are disabled until eligibility returns; CampusDeals may remove inappropriate content through moderation. Owners and managers are responsible for the accuracy, lawful use, necessary rights, and timely correction or removal of information they submit. They may not submit deceptive prices, unavailable offers, infringing images, or content they are not authorized to publish.

By submitting business information, deal text, or an image, you grant Campus Deals a nonexclusive license to display, format, and distribute that content within the service for as long as needed to operate the listing, subject to your rights and applicable law. You represent that you have permission to grant that license. We may review, correct, restrict, or remove submissions and listings when we reasonably believe they are inaccurate, expired, unlawful, infringing, or harmful to trust in the service. A report does not automatically change a listing; we review it first.

Partner subscription and billing

Partner is $49 per month and Partner Pro is $99 per month, subject to the final amount and terms shown at Stripe Checkout. Stripe processes payment information; Campus Deals does not store card numbers. Only a verified billing owner may begin a subscription or buy promotional credits. Manage payment and cancellation through the Stripe Customer Portal linked from the business dashboard. A cancellation scheduled for period end generally leaves paid tools available through that period and stops renewal then. Review the Portal’s confirmation and contact Campus Deals about billing errors. Cancellation does not itself refund a previous charge; refund requests are considered under applicable law and the circumstances of the charge. Payment does not guarantee customers, sales, traffic, or a particular ranking.

Reported deal use and estimated savings

When you tap Redeem Deal, you report that you used the offer. This is a personal log, not payment, a coupon, a purchase receipt, or confirmation from the business. Logging a deal does not override its restrictions. Campus Deals does not impose a one-time use limit, but the business may. Estimated savings use supported same-item price comparisons, explicit dollar discounts, or reviewed reference prices for eligible percentages, BOGO offers, free items, or bundles. Ranges use their lower end when included in reported-use totals. Conditional voucher value is shown separately and is not automatically added to those totals. Clearly labeled spending illustrations, quantity/option examples and comparisons between different time slots are also excluded from automatic totals; they are not a claim about what you bought or saved. We do not invent basket sizes or prices for variable purchases. Actual savings may vary with eligibility, orders, options, taxes, fees and business terms. The amount and method used when reporting a deal are saved rather than silently recalculating historical totals. Do not log use you did not make or repeatedly submit false records to distort business analytics.

Featured Days and Deal Blasts

An active Partner subscription includes two Featured Day credits per Stripe billing period; Partner Pro includes eight Featured Days and one Deal Blast. Included credits expire at period end and do not roll over. Extra Featured Day credits cost $15 each or $60 for five; a Deal Blast credit costs $30. Purchased credits do not have an automatic expiration while the service operates, but a current eligible paid membership is required to schedule or display a campaign. A successful payment adds the stated credits only after Stripe confirms payment; it does not automatically reserve a date. Refunds may revoke unused credits. Contact Campus Deals about any refund request involving an already delivered campaign.

One credit promotes one eligible, verified deal for one scheduled Tallahassee calendar day, subject to available inventory, accurate deal information, and moderation. Included credits are used before purchased credits. Featured Days receive labeled inclusion in Home’s Featured area and elevated placement in relevant Explore results. Deal Blast includes those benefits plus a larger Home spotlight and a dedicated relevant Explore slot; it consumes one Blast credit, not a separate Featured credit. We currently limit simultaneous campaigns to six total and two Deal Blasts per day, with one campaign per business per day. Multiple eligible campaigns rotate fairly. Sponsored placement does not override filters or guarantee first position, impressions, clicks, redemptions, customers, sales, revenue, or return on investment. Campaign reporting measures placement impressions and activity during a campaign day; it does not prove that the campaign caused that activity. We may reject or stop inaccurate or ineligible promotional content. Campus Deals may separately select listings for editorial visibility.

Acceptable use

Do not submit false reports or claims, impersonate a business, manipulate analytics or saves, scrape the service in a way that disrupts it, attempt to access another account or business’s private data, upload malware, or use Campus Deals for unlawful activity. Do not use a business profile or deal in a way that infringes another person’s rights. We may limit or terminate access for violations, subject to applicable law.

Ownership and third-party services

Campus Deals’ own design, software, and branding belong to Campus Deals or its licensors. Business names, marks, source pages, and submitted content remain the property of their respective owners. Links to business websites, maps, social networks, Supabase authentication, and Stripe may take you to third-party services with their own terms and privacy practices. We do not control those services or the business’s fulfillment of its offer.

Service availability and responsibility

We work to keep the service useful, but provide it on an “as available” basis. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we do not make warranties that every listing is complete, current, error-free, or continuously available. Campus Deals is not responsible for a business’s products, services, pricing, admission, or conduct. Nothing here limits rights or remedies that cannot legally be limited. Any limitation of liability, dispute process, governing-law clause, or commercial indemnity should be added only after professional legal review rather than assumed here.

Changes and contact

We may update these Terms as the service changes. The updated date will appear above. Material changes that affect existing paid arrangements should be communicated appropriately before they apply. For questions about these Terms, use the Campus Deals contact form.
