How many points do I earn?

How are points redeemed?

Points can be redeemed at the Pintastic Pinball & Game Room Expo Store in GrowTix.

How can I access my Share Rewards account?

The easiest way to access your Share Rewards account to see how many points you’ve earned and to redeem those points is by logging into your GrowTix account directly. You can also access the Share Rewards portal through your ticket confirmation email from GrowTix by clicking on the orange button on the right hand side that says, “Sign up for Share Rewards”.

I was gifted a ticket, can I count my ticket voucher towards the Share Rewards program?

No. The Share Rewards program will be affiliated with the email address that is associated with the ticket order in GrowTix. If someone printed out the ticket and gifted it to you, you will not be able to create a Share Rewards account with that ticket, since it will be assigned to the person that originally made the purchase.

I won a ticket, can I count that voucher towards the Share Rewards program?

Yes! You can access your Share Rewards account through the electronic ticket that was emailed to you from GrowTix the same as if you had purchased it.

Will it be possible to use share rewards points to upgrade tickets?

At this time, no. Share Rewards points can only be applied towards original ticket purchases and cannot be used towards upgrades.

Is there anyway to get points from friends I referred before I became an Affiliate? 

No. Currently, there is no way to retroactively add previous referrals. They must click on your unique Affiliate link to purchase their tickets in order for you to get points.

I am a Vendor who purchased a Booth, can I use my booth space to qualify?

No, purchasing a Vendor Booth does not qualify you to enter the Share Rewards program. You would still need to purchase an original ticket to Salt Lake Comic Con or FanXperience through your GrowTix account in order to become an affiliate.

I signed up but never received an email. Is this normal?

Currently, there is no confirmation email that is sent out once you join. You will simply see My Share Rewards program show up in your GrowTix account.

Can I transition to the Business Affiliate Program?
Yes! Once you sell 100 tickets, you qualify to become a Business Affiliate and will get paid a percentage of sales in cash. Any points you earned prior to becoming a Business Affiliate will have to be redeemed at the Share Rewards Store. Any points earned after becoming a Business Affiliate will be paid out in cash.
