Online Shopping
To make sure you can collect Shopping Benefits when shopping online, your browser and any anti-spyware or anti-virus programmes you run must permit the use of cookies on your computer. This is the only way for us to record your purchases from an Online Partner and credit them to you.
Cookies enable Online Partners to confirm that you have accessed the online store via the myWorld website. After you have completed your purchase, we can also use the cookies to determine how much you spent and assign your benefits within "My Purchases".
Of course, we do not share specific information about the purchased items or personal data with the Partner or anyone else. To make sure your purchase is recorded securely when using an Online Partner, we recommend staying on the website throughout the purchase and not visiting any other websites.
Cookies enable us to record your purchases at Online Partners and credit you with Shopping Benefits. They are small text files. In our case, they inform an online shop that you have been sent to their website via the myWorld platform. Similarly, they let us know that you have purchased something from an Online Partner.
We never transfer information about your purchase items or your personal data to other parties and we don't access your computer's hard drive.

Log onto the myWorld website using your login details. Then use the search function to find the Online Partners you are looking for. Click on the logo for the online shop you wish to shop with. Click on the button "Shop online now!" to open the store in a new tab. You can now place your order and collect Shopping Benefits.
You will receive Shopping Benefits from all Online Shops listed for your country. You can use the global search to find international Online Partners that are not listed in your country but send orders to your market.
You are free to shop with these international Online Partners within myWorld. However, we are unable to guarantee that you will receive benefits and there is no entitlement to compensation.
Shoppers can use the "Regional and global search" feature to access Partners in all countries where myWorld is represented. The agreement between online shops and myWorld applies only to countries in which the online shop is listed.
As a Shopper, you are free to shop at online shops outside your home country, however, the Partner is not obliged to credit you with the Shopping Benefits generated by your purchase. To make sure you receive your Shopping Benefits, we therefore recommend only shopping at online shops listed for your country.

Since the service for Shoppers is very important to us, it is essential to us that you get your Shopping Benefits rewarded retroactively if they have not yet been recorded, incorrectly calculated or accidentally cancelled. The processing time for each individual request differs based on the Partner and therefore each request also takes a different amount of time.
Generally, every proclaimed purchase first has to be requested, checked and then must be imported into your profile so that you can see it in your Shopping Overview. Your claimed purchase must first be approved by the Partner so that it can be transferred to your profile and you can receive your Shopping Benefits.
Therefore, the process of your request depends on many different factors and it can take up to a few weeks to find a solution to the issue. Our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.
