2.3 A participant in the LeadingBonus program is credited points based on his/her overnight stay. Points are only awarded for completed stays and completed activities.

2.5 Participants in the LeadingBonus program receive points for all stays at the regular rates of the respective campsite from the time the card is issued.

Two or more participants cannot combine their points, e.g. to reach a point level that entitles them to redeem a prize.
2.7 Participants may redeem their points and receive rewards as soon as their points balance is sufficient for the intended reward. Points are valid for three years from the date they are awarded, after which they expire.
