Since having a baby can mean buying a lot of stuff, participating in a rewards program like this is one way to earn a little bonus when you shop. With Fetch, you’ll earn points for purchases other than your baby’s diapers, too.
How Huggies Rewards Works
In the past, Huggies ran its own reward program. It allowed parents to earn points by purchasing Huggies products and participating in activities like taking surveys and watching videos. Prizes included free diapers. As of late 2020, Huggies Rewards moved under the Fetch Rewards umbrella. With Fetch, you use an app to scan your receipts for any purchase from any store. You can also connect Fetch to your account with online retailers. Once you are a member of Fetch Rewards, you can select Huggies Rewards as an option. Then you will earn extra Fetch points when you purchase Huggies products.
Huggies Rewards Points and Prizes
You’ll earn points from Fetch just for scanning your receipt, regardless of whether you buy any Huggies products. But if you do, you’ll earn additional points.
Pros and Cons of Huggies Rewards
Like any loyalty program, there are some advantages and disadvantages to using Huggies Rewards and Fetch.
Pros
If you use Fetch to earn Huggies Rewards, you also earn points for other products you might already be buying (like boxed mac and cheese, diaper ointment, toilet paper, or even prescription medicines). It’s easy to scan your receipts with the app, connect your online shopping accounts to Fetch, and view special offers inside the app. You’ll also have access to a good range of gift card rewards once you have earned enough Fetch points.
Cons
As with most rewards or loyalty programs, Huggies Rewards/Fetch is free to use. But that means the company is using information about your purchases to make its profits. While your personal information (like your email address) won’t be shared with Fetch’s partners, anonymous data will. And of course, Fetch itself will have your contact information. A single receipt will only earn you 25 points if you don’t purchase anything from Fetch’s partner brands. So it can take awhile to amass enough points to redeem a reward. And unlike the former Huggies Rewards program, you can’t cash in your points for free diapers. Instead, you’d have to get a gift card to a retailer like Walmart and then use it on diapers. You’ll need to scan your receipts into the app within 14 days, and you can only scan 35 receipts within a 7-day period. That’s something to be aware of if you tend to make lots of small shopping trips. And if your account is inactive for 90 days, you may lose any points you haven’t redeemed. There was an error.
