Bayer PLUS Rewards
Here is a list of the most commonly asked questions in regards to the Bayer PLUS Rewards program.
What is new in the Market Year 2021 Bayer PLUS Rewards program?
Partner Incentive Category:
We’ve added a new category called “Partner Incentives”. This program year, our partner is Valent®. The partner incentive allows members to earn $2/A on participating partner products, PLUS an additional $1/A on the purchase of a qualifying Roundup® Brand Agricultural Herbicide* (when bundled with the qualifying partner product). Please refer to the full program guide to see a list of these products and how much you could earn!
* Grower must match acres with Roundup® Brand Agricultural Herbicide.
Paired Products:
Paired Products will have their acres added together and count as one product in program calculations. Currently, the below products are paired together:
- Sivanto® HL Insecticide 2 fl. oz. + Sivanto® Prime Insecticide 4 fl. oz.
- Velum® Nematicide 6.5 fl. oz. + Velum® Total Insecticide 18 fl. oz.
Climate FieldView™:
Beginning September 1st, any grower who has enrolled in Bayer PLUS Rewards is eligible to receive Climate FieldView™ Plus free for one year. Be sure to claim your offer during enrollment or within the grower portal.
If I’m enrolled in the 2020 program, do I need to re-enroll in the 2021 program?
No, those currently enrolled in Bayer PLUS Rewards will not have to re-enroll in the 2021 program. Your membership will automatically carry over to the new program year.
Will the program rewards roll over from year to year?
No, Bayer PLUS Rewards will not roll over from year to year. For instance, points earned in Market Year 2021 will expire April 30th 2022, and the account will be reset before redemption for the next year begins.
What will my redemption options be?
You will be able to enter the payee information according to your preference. You can determine who the check is written to, and where it is mailed for each redemption request. You must have $1500 in Bayer PLUS Rewards to request redemption, with a minimum amount of $500 per check.
Will I be able to see all of the products that I’ve purchased?
Yes, you will have visibility into the purchases that your retailer(s) have reported related to your Technology ID(s).
What if I don’t remember, or cannot find, my Technology ID?
If you can’t find your Technology ID at the time of sign-up you will be able to 1) look up your ID, 2) create a new ID, 3) use your Bayer Innovation Plus Loyalty ID, or 4) contact the CIC for assistance.
Will you ensure that the head of the farm will receive all rebates?
Rebates for all Bayer PLUS Rewards will be calculated and paid at the Farm Unit/Head Farm level. The Head Grower is the only person who can request the redemption.
All product portfolio incentives rebates will be limited to 5 products. Incentives will be calculated starting with the highest acre product first.
What if I buy both Asgrow® soybeans and DEKALB® corn? Does it count as two products?
All seed acres are added together to count as one product.
