Last Revised: May 30, 2023
The Terms and Conditions ("Terms") form a legal agreement between Bowlero Corp. and AMF Bowling Centers Inc. (d/b/a Bowlmor AMF Centers), and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "Bowlero", "we" or "us"), on the one hand, and you ("you", with you and other users of the MoneyBowl™ mobile application (“App”) referred to as "Users") and applies to your use of the App and participation in “Points Play Challenges,” “PointsBowl Challenges,” “Money Play Challenges” and “MoneyBowl Challenges” through the App (collectively, “Challenges” or the "Service" ).
Please review the Terms carefully. They include a provision waiving the right to pursue any class, group or representative claim and requiring you to pursue certain disputes through individual arbitration unless you opt-out within the specified time frame. See Section 18 for more information. BY ACCESSING THE SERVICE OR CREATING AN ACCOUNT WITH US, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.

3. Challenges
(a) Challenges, Generally
The Service is only available at participating Bowlero properties. You may only participate in Challenges when physically located at a participating Bowlero property. In order to use the Service, you must connect through the App with a bowling lane at a participating Bowlero property. The Service employs geolocation technology to ensure bowlers are physically located at eligible Bowlero properties before permitting them to use the Service.
You agree that you will act as the sole participant in any Challenges you accept. For example, you cannot “share” in completing a Challenge with another bowler. All other persons are prohibited from participating in any way in any Challenge accepted through your Account.
The first time you use the Service, you will be required to complete a First Time User Experience (“FTUE”). The FTUE will involve certain free Challenges. You must complete the FTUE in order to use the Service. The purpose of the FTUE is to set your skill level.
For all Challenges, we will prominently disclose the minimum and maximum entry fees (if any), rewards that can be won and the requirements to compete the Challenge within your Account in the App. That information will be available to you before you enter the Challenge. Your performance of the Challenge, including your score and the result in any particular frame, will be determined by the Bowlero property’s scoring system. Those determinations are final. Manual entry or corrections are not permitted.
A Challenge begins after acceptance, as soon as you begin bowling. If you do not begin bowling by the end of that day (by closing time at the Bowlero property where you are located), the Challenge will be canceled. You also can cancel the Challenge in the “Upcoming Challenges” section of the App at any time before you begin bowling. Requesting a lane change will not void a live Challenge. If you change lanes for any reason after commencing a Challenge, the Challenge will continue at the new lane.
Bowlero reserves the right: (i) to terminate or declare any Challenge null and void and rescind any prize, if in its sole judgment, the Terms or the integrity of the Service have been violated or compromised in any way, intentionally or unintentionally by any person, whether or not a participant in the Challenge; (ii) to alter or amend any rules governing Challenges at any time; or (iii) to stop or conclude any Challenge at any time without prior notice. In the event of any technical error, system outage, or other event that impacts or otherwise interrupts operation of the Service, we reserve the right to act in our sole discretion with respect to Challenges impacted by such occurrence, including whether to continue or to terminate the affected Challenge. Any disputes, questions or doubts regarding the score or outcome in connection with any Challenge shall be decided by us in our sole discretion. Bowlero reserves the right to disable access to the Service during league play.
(b) Points Play Challenges
Points Play Challenges are free to enter and award “Points” and “Stars.” Users complete the requirements of the Points Play Challenge to receive the rewards.
Points can only be redeemed for “Reward Coupons” and cannot be redeemed for real-world currency. Reward Coupons entitle the holder to the products or services specified by the Reward Coupon. The products or services may include, but are not limited to, food, arcade and bowling products and services at participating Bowlero locations. Reward Coupons have a set Points value that Users redeem their Points to Claim.
Points never expire. Reward Coupons are subject to any terms and conditions specified on the Reward Coupon, including expiration dates. Any Reward Coupon terms and conditions are disclosed prior to Point redemption for the Reward Coupon. Reward Coupons are available to Users on the next business day after redemption and are displayed digitally in the App. No physical copies are provided.
Stars are earned by winning Points Play Challenges. Stars can be used only to enter PointsBowl Challenges or MoneyBowl Challenges (see Sections 3.c and 3.d). Stars cannot be redeemed for real-world currency or Reward Coupons. Stars expire 100 days after they are earned.
(c) PointsBowl Challenges
Users under 18 years of age may participate in PointsBowl Challenges. PointsBowl Challenges require Stars to enter and award Points to Users who successfully complete the Challenge. Once Stars are used to enter a PointsBowl Challenge, those Stars are discarded (deducted from the User’s Stars balance).
Users who lose the PointsBowl Challenge can use additional Stars to re-enter the same Challenge. If a User loses, the current Points prize value of that PointsBowl Challenge for that User increases, up to the specified maximum Points prize amount.
(d) MoneyBowl Challenges
Users also can enter MoneyBowl Challenges with Stars earned from participating in Points Play Challenges. We will prominently disclose the number of Stars required for entry and the current prize value of a MoneyBowl Challenge within the App in advance of entry. Once Stars are used to enter a MoneyBowl Challenge, those Stars are discarded (deducted from the User’s Stars balance).
The requirement for winning each MoneyBowl Challenge will disclosed prior to entry. Users who lose the MoneyBowl Challenge can use additional Stars to re-enter the same Challenge. If a User loses, the current prize value of that MoneyBowl Challenge for that User increases, up to the specified maximum prize amount. Prizes are deposited in Users’ accounts under the Deposit and Withdrawal policy described in Section 6.
(e) Money Play Challenges
Money Play Challenges require payment for entry and award prizes for the successful completion of a Challenge. Entry fees and prizes are withdrawn from and deposited to Users’ accounts under the Deposit and Withdrawal policy described in Section 6.
Money Play Challenges are only available at certain Bowlero locations.
4. Marketing Communications
You understand that by signing up for the Service, you will receive updates, special offers, and other information from us via email and in-App messaging. You may unsubscribe from future marketing emails from us at any time by following the “unsubscribe” instructions in our emails.
5. Billing Discrepancies
You agree to notify us about any billing problems or discrepancies within 30 days from the date of the occurrence of any billing problem or discrepancy. If you do not bring them to our attention within 30 days, you agree that you waive your right to dispute such problems or discrepancies. You are responsible for and agree to reimburse us for all reversals, charge-backs, claims, fees, fines, penalties and any other liability incurred by us (including costs and related expenses) that were caused by or arise out of payments that you authorized or accepted or that were authorized or accepted using your Login Information (even if not authorized by you). You understand that we may suspend or terminate your Account if for any reason a charge that you authorized or that was authorized using your Login Information cannot be processed or is returned or unpaid, and if such event occurs, you shall immediately remit to us payment for such charge through any payment method. In the event your Login Information has been compromised, please notify us immediately and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to reverse any unauthorized charges. If the compromise results from our negligence or breach of these Terms, then we will reimburse you for any resulting loss, provided that you have timely notified us (as required by this paragraph) of the charge.
6. Deposits and Withdrawals
Bowlero may impose limits on the number, type and amount of deposits you may make through the Service. Prizes will be deposited in your Account promptly after you win them. In order to withdraw funds from your Account, you must first verify your email address. Funds withdrawn from your Account will be issued to you via electronic check by our service provider, Deluxe. You may not transfer or endorse any check issued by us or Deluxe to or for the benefit of a third party. Violation of that prohibition may result in termination of your ability to use the Service and forfeiture of the funds so transferred.
7. Tax Reporting
Each year all winners who have won $600 or more over the previous year must provide updated address and social security number details to Bowlero. These details will be used to allow us to comply with tax regulations and may be shared with appropriate tax authorities. You, not Bowlero, are responsible for filing and paying applicable state and federal taxes on any winnings. Bowlero does not provide tax advice, nor should any statements in these Terms or on the Service be construed as tax advice.

17. Governing Law and Judicial Forum
These Terms, your use of the Service and our entire relationship will be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict- or choice-of-law principles. In the event that you have opted out of arbitration (as set out below) or that the agreement to arbitrate is otherwise found not to apply to you or your claim, you and Bowlero agree that any judicial proceeding (other than as described above) may only be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in New York County, New York City, New York (a “Permitted Court”). Both you and Bowlero consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and Bowlero may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction (i) to compel arbitration pursuant to Section 18 below or (ii) to enforce an arbitral award issued thereunder.
18. Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate on an Individual Basis
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT MAY REQUIRE YOU AND BOWLERO TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU AND BOWLERO CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM EACH OTHER.
By agreeing to these Terms, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you and Bowlero agree that any and all past, present and future disputes, claims or causes of action between you and Bowlero arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, the formation of these Terms or any other dispute between you and Bowlero or any of Bowlero's licensors, distributors, suppliers or agents (including any application store or platform from which the Service is accessed or downloaded), and whether arising prior to or after your agreement to this Section, (collectively, "Dispute(s)") will be governed by the procedure outlined below. You and Bowlero further agree that any arbitration pursuant to this Section shall not proceed as a class, group or representative action.
(a) Informal Dispute Resolution. Bowlero wants to address your concerns without the need for a formal legal dispute. Before filing a claim against Bowlero, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting support@moneybowl.com. Similarly, if you have provided an email address to us as part of your Account registration, Bowlero agrees to do the same. If a dispute is not resolved within 30 days after the email noting the Dispute is sent, you or Bowlero may initiate an arbitration proceeding as described below.
(b) We Both Agree To Arbitrate. By agreeing to these Terms, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you and Bowlero each and both agree to resolve any Disputes – including any Dispute concerning the enforceability, validity, scope or severability of this agreement to arbitrate – through final and binding arbitration as discussed herein.
(c) Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate. You may decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting support@moneybowl.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms and stating that you (include your first and last name, email address and postal address) decline this arbitration agreement. By opting out of the agreement to arbitrate, you will not be precluded from using the Service, but you and Bowlero will not be permitted to invoke the mutual agreement to arbitrate to resolve Disputes under the terms otherwise provided herein.
(d) Arbitration Procedures and Fees. You and Bowlero agree that the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes in effect at the time arbitration is sought ("AAA Rules"). Those rules are available at www.adr.org. Arbitration will proceed on an individual basis and will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with those rules. You and Bowlero further agree that, unless and only to the extent prohibited under AAA Rules, the arbitration will be held in New York, New York, or, at your election, will be conducted telephonically or via other remote electronic means. The AAA Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. This Section (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate on an Individual Basis) shall be construed under and be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding any other choice of law set out in this Agreement. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award any remedies, including injunctive relief, that would be available to you in an individual lawsuit and that are not waivable under applicable law. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this Section 18(d), if a party either seeks monetary compensation in excess of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) or seeks an equitable form of relief that would significantly impact other Bowlero users, in each case as reasonably determined by either party, the parties agree that such arbitration will proceed on an individual basis but will be handled by a panel of three (3) arbitrators pursuant to the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. Each party shall select one arbitrator, and the two party-selected arbitrators shall select the third, who shall serve as chair of the arbitral panel. That chairperson shall be a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and with experience arbitrating or mediating disputes. In the event of disagreement as to whether the threshold for a three-arbitrator panel has been met, the sole arbitrator appointed in accordance with this Section shall make that determination. If the arbitrator determines a three-person panel is appropriate, the arbitrator may – if selected by either party or as the chair by the two party-selected arbitrators – participate in the arbitral panel. Except as and to the extent otherwise may be required by law, the arbitration proceeding and any award shall be confidential.
(e) Arbitration Shall Proceed Individually. Regardless of the rules of a given arbitration forum, you and Bowlero agree that the arbitration of any Dispute shall proceed on an individual basis, and neither you nor Bowlero may bring a claim as a part of a class, group, collective, coordinated, consolidated or mass arbitration (each, a "Collective Arbitration"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a claim to resolve any Dispute against Bowlero will be deemed a Collective Arbitration if (i) two (2) or more similar claims for arbitration are filed concurrently by or on behalf of one or more claimants; and (ii) counsel for the claimants are the same, share fees or coordinate across the arbitrations. "Concurrently" for purposes of this provision means that both arbitrations are pending (filed but not yet resolved) at the same time.
(f) Class Action and Collective Arbitration Waiver.
