51. What happens to my points earned through purchases made with merchants who later withdraw from the program?
Points earned through qualifying purchases will not be forfeited unless they are earned after the retailer has withdrawn from the program. Please regularly review retailer offers on MyArkansasRewards.com to ensure you are making the most of your purchases.
52. Why do some retailers' point offers differ from others?
Some participating retailers offer savings every day they are open. Others offer point earning opportunities that vary by day and/or time of day.

Please sign in through the Member Portal to review the specific earning opportunities offered by each participating merchant.
53. What should I do if my online shopping session is interrupted?
Occasionally, you will be logged out of your MyArkansas Rewards account while shopping online. This can happen for a variety of reasons.

Therefore, to ensure all your purchases earn MyArkansas Rewards Points, please log in again and shop from a link on the MyArkansas Rewards website.

Redemption options are divided between Gift Cards, Station Store and Sweepstakes within the left navigation menu. Browse through the rewards until you find one that you want then select “Add to cart” or “Purchase”. When you have finished selecting all of the items, you can view your Shopping Cart by clicking on 'View cart' under the Shopping Cart Summary on the right side of the page. Follow the steps to complete your order. On the last step, click “Submit order” and your Points for this order will be deducted from your Point balance and moved into Reserved points.

After you select a redemption item you will receive a system generated email informing you that your item is ready to be picked up. Please pick up all redemption items, unless otherwise directed, from KARK/KARZ TV at 1401 West Capitol Ave, Little Rock, AR 72201. Please call ahead for hours of operation (501-340-4444) and bring your valid picture ID.
Please note, the foregoing applies only to items that members redeem with points, not for items purchased through MyArkansas Rewards' retail partners. All pick up, delivery and shipping arrangements for product purchases are organized through the seller, not MyArkansas Rewards.
77. How do sweepstakes work?
At any given time MyArkansas Rewards is running up to 20 sweepstakes for items as diverse as $25 gift cards, iPods, flat screen televisions and family trips. To enter a Sweepstakes, you must submit the required number of Points as specified on the Sweepstakes page found in the left navigation menu. Once you enter a sweepstakes your Points will be shown as Reserved in your account. Once the sweepstakes drawing has been completed your points will be deducted from Reserved and added to Points Earned. The number of Points required for an entry will be determined separately for each Sweepstakes. An entry will not be valid unless all of the required fields of the online entry form are completed and the information is valid. Once submitted, an entry cannot be deleted, canceled or modified. Members may complete as many sweepstakes entries as they have points to enter.

- You should use one of our recommended web browsers MS Explorer 6 SP1 or 7, Mozilla Firefox 2 or Apple Safari 2
85. I did not receive a welcome email. What should I do?
There are several reasons you may not have received your welcome email:
- Your spam filter or other software may have routed your welcome email to your spam or junk folder, please check there. If this has happened please add NoReply@myarkansasrewards.com, and support@myarkansasrewards.com to your approved or safe senders list.
- There may have been a service interruption or other problem with the email while it was in transit. Please write to support@myarkansasrewards.com to request that a new message be sent.
- Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) may have identified your welcome email as junk and prevented its delivery. The most simple way to eliminate this problem is to access the Account page from the navigation menu on the left and change your email address. For example yahoo, gmail, Road Runner and aol email address all work well with the MyArkansas Rewards program.
86. What do I do if I forgot my password or user name?
Click on the “Forgot Password” link that appears in the Member Portal at sign in. Enter your email address and User Name associated with your account if you remember both. If you can remember only your User Name or only your email address, enter it and click “Submit.” Once you have done that, MyArkansas Rewards will send you a Reset Password email containing a link. Click on the link within that email, and you'll be taken to the Reset Password page. Create a new password and you will be ready to continue using the Member Portal.
87. Why can't I access my account online?
There are a number of possible reasons you are having difficulty accessing your account online:
- Verify that you are using your current User Name and Password.
- If you just registered, verify that you activated your account by clicking on the link in the welcome email.
- Verify that you are using one of our recommended web browsers MS Explorer 6 SP1 or 7, Mozilla Firefox 2 or Apple Safari 2.
- From time to time portions of our website are inactive for brief periods to facilitate system maintenance and upgrade. If you are unable to sign in and none of the above conditions apply, please try back in a few minutes.

- If you continue to have problems accessing your account online please email support@myarkansasrewards.com.
88. Why doesn't my online account reflect my point earnings or redemptions?
If you have earned or redeemed MyArkansas Rewards Points more than 20 business days ago and those transactions are not reflected in your account please email support@myarkansasrewards.com.
- If you are missing Points earned from a purchase using a registered credit or debit card at a participating retailer, allow up to 20 business days for the Points to post to your account. Make sure the retailer still has an active promotion by checking the “Partners” page. If you still have not received the Points, send an email to support@myarkansasrewards.com with your User Name, Retailer name, date of purchase and type or attach a copy of the receipt showing the merchant, amount of purchase (itemizing taxes and tip if any), date and the specific method of payment.
- If you are missing Points earned from Code entry, trivia, or survey please send an email to support@myarkansasrewards.com with your User Name, description of the missing Points and time you attempted to enter the code or complete the survey or trivia.

89. Why can't I enter an auction or select a specific award?
The most common reason for being unable to enter a sweepstakes, auction or select a certain reward is that you have not earned a Point total sufficient to gain eligibility for that reward. If your Active Point balance does not meet or exceed the indicated number of Points required to select your desired reward then you have not accumulated enough Points to select that reward. Please note, Pending Points must convert to Active Points in order to make them eligible for use in redemptions.
90. Why didn't I receive any Points after I entered a Code?
There are several reasons that Codes can be rejected:
- All Codes have an end date and time past which they are no longer valid. If you attempted to enter a Code after this end date and time, then you will receive a message stating that this Code is no longer valid.
- You might have already entered this code and received the Points. You can check your “Transaction History” for details.
- Some Codes may be valid only for a limited number of users (e.g. “The first 100 people to enter the code earn 100 Points”.)
- The Code might be suspended for a period of time after which you will be able to enter the Code to earn the Points. Therefore, you may want to try again a few minutes later.
91. Why doesn't Member Support answer my email?
There are several reasons you may not have received a response from Member Support:
- Please allow up to 48 hours for Member Support responses.
- Your spam filter or other software may have routed your Member Support email to your spam or junk folder, please check there. If this has happened please add support@myarkansasrewards.com to your approved or safe senders list.
- There may have been a service interruption or other problem while your response was in transit. Please write to support@myarkansasrewards.com if you do not receive a response within 48 hours.
- Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) may have identified your Member Support email as junk and prevented its delivery. The easiest way to eliminate this problem is to access the Account page from the navigation menu on the left and change your email address. For example yahoo, gmail, Road Runner and aol email address all work well with the MyArkansas Rewards program.
92. My online shopping session was interrupted. What should I do?
Occasionally, you will be logged out of your MyArkansas Rewards account while shopping online. This can happen for a variety of reasons. First, MyArkansas Rewards protects your confidential account information when your account is inactive for an extended period of time by logging you out automatically. Second, you may experience an internet service provider or other interruption that automatically logs you out. You may still earn points for purchases you make through links on MyArkansas Rewards. To ensure all your purchases earn MyArkansas Rewards Points, please log in again and shop from a link on the MyArkansas Rewards website.

94. I don't know how to assemble, install or use my new product purchased through MyArkansas Rewards. Can MyArkansas Rewards help me?
No. Please do not contact MyArkansas Rewards with product oriented questions as we do not have the expertise to address your product questions. Please contact the retailer from which you purchased the item or the product manufacturer directly.
