Rewards Program Terms and Conditions
Last updated January 1st, 2020
Opting-in to Moosejaw Rewards:
All users must accept these terms and conditions and create an account with Moosejaw to opt-in to the program and earn, accrue, retain and redeem Moosejaw Reward Dollars (MJ$). The program is FREE to join and membership is ongoing until or unless the user requests to be removed or is removed due to abuse of the program. Users can opt-in to the program while checking out on Moosejaw.com or at one of our stores or at any time within 30 days of purchase to accrue the MJ$ earned on that purchase. Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the “Opt out Rewards Program” link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.
Are you Sure?
Our Rewards Program is completely FREE and easy to use.
By opting out, you forfeit all the Moosejaw Rewards Dollars your currently have in your account, which is basically throwing away free money. What would your grandmother say about that? If you're 100% sure, please click "OptOut" below.
Earn 10% back on all full-priced purchases on Moosejaw.com or at our shops (2.5% for discounted items).
The program is FREE. Just register and join during the checkout process. So Easy.
After joining the program, you'll receive your MJ$ as soon as your order ships. Then the next time you shop at Moosejaw, you can redeem those MJ$ to get awesome gear for way less.

Special order items take longer to ship
We want to make extra-sure you realize that you've added a special order item to your cart. These items take a little longer to get to you because we have to order from the manufacturer first. The "Est. Ship Date" is the date we expect items to leave our warehouse... so add your chosen shipping speed to see when it will show up at your door.

Love this little deviceReally like this belay device - it's a very similar idea to the Gri Gri, but smaller, lighter, and with a simpler mechanism. Very easy and positive to use.
One thing to note is in climbing gyms often use thicker ropes. They work, but lowering can sometimes be tricky. I occasionally have to feed rope if lowering someone lighter, and it can be touchy to lower someone heavy smoothly. It works up to 10.7mm, but works best at < 10mm.

Still my favorite belay device…I used the Trango cinch for years and just recently purchased the Vergo. They still remain my favorite belay device available. Smooth, reliable, intuitive.

Works Great for Saddle Hunting Rappel!Got this for the 2021 hunting season so I could rappel after each hunt. Great alternative to the Madrock Safeguard that has been raved over.

Super Smooth BelayI absolutely love the vergo, I was incredibly happy to find it on sale and after purchase was even better with the smoothest and safest lead belay I’ve ever experienced!

Good grigri alternativeFeeds well once you get the hang of it. Good lowering action. Catches a fall really well. I had the original back in 2016 and the long wait for the recall was frustrating. But it’s a good belay device and worth the wait.

It's not for everyone...Purchased a month ago and have used for sport and trad single and multipitch. Many years of grigri use have trained my muscles to work vertically not horizontally. I've found the concept to be sound, and in a gym setting it excelled because of my bad shoulders and never a bad belay.
The issues with it come into play when belaying the leader on a traverse pitch without a ledge and stance or any time a soft catch would help. It locks right away, no rope feed like grigri when lead belaying. Also the sharp end is threaded opposite as a regular atc and the lever is opposite facing of grigri, adding to the confusion. Overall I say it's not a grigri replacement but the ergonomic benefits could be seen in future designs. This one did not suit my climbing style but i like that it can't be overridden simply and should save some bones from groundfalls this season.

Great Lead Belay DeviceI have been using a GriGri 2 since it was available. The Vergo looks similar and is almost identical in use to the GriGri for top rope belaying. In my opinion the Vergo is a better device for lead belaying. The use of the Vergo during lead belaying just feels natural. Every rope I have used pulls through the device without any issues. During a fall the Vergo locks up immediately. Unlike the GriGri there is no way to prevent the camming device from locking, which can be very dangerous to the climber during a fall. The quality of the Vergo is very good. The directions on how the rope should be inserted in the device are clearly printed on the Vergo.
