            More about Tiers

            Your membership year begins the day after you achieve Silver or Gold status and continues until the end of that calendar month, plus an additional 12 months.

            When you renew your status, the new membership year runs for 12 full months starting from the first day of the month following your renewal.

            To upgrade or retain your tier, you’ll need to earn the required number of Tier Points within a 12-month period. Once you reach Silver or Gold, your status lasts for 12 months. If you don’t requalify in that time, you’ll move down one tier and your Tier Points will reset.

            Silver - 400 Tier Points
