Supporter level related questions

[brian163]

I understand the sentiment for most here is that donating is for the sake of supporting the site. However, since TFP offers perks by level, I'm looking for a few clarifications for clarification's sake.

Having recently purchased a TF-100 Pro test kit from TfTestKits (love it!), if I donate at the Bronze or Silver level now can I use the discount credit for a refill kit? And does that offer carry over year to year if I keep donating annually? Or is this just considered an initial perk? (I'm not even making the argument it should be or not, I just feel the supporter info page is a bit vague.)

Do the other discount offers such as INYO expire within some period from the time of donating? (This could impact when someone donates.)

As referenced in the Gold level, I understand the TFP Store is pretty much for giving away swag to gold supporters. But I'm a bit surprised a link to it isn't at least there in the description just to let potential supporters know what they could choose. I had to search forums to run down the cafeexpress link...

Thanks

Hi there,

Thanks for your interest in supporting TFP, and for your insightful questions! I'll clarify your queries as follows:

1. The discount codes for TfTestKits are primarily designed for new test kits and are only applicable for Bronze and Silver supporters. As a Gold supporter, you'll have the added benefit of using the discount for refills as well.

2. The discounts offered for INYO and Marina Pools are indeed designed to last for a considerable length of time. To the best of my knowledge, they haven't set any expiration dates. If your TfTestKits discount happens to expire due to system limitations, please reach out to me directly and I'll assist with extending the dates.

3. If you choose to donate multiple times, you will indeed receive multiple discounts. However, please note that these discounts cannot be combined.

4. Concerning the TFP Store link on CafePress, your point is well taken. It was mainly overlooked because it didn't particularly stand out, but we'll consider adding it for clarity.

I hope this clears up any confusion. Should you have further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to ask.

Lee
