Bayer PLUS FAQs

No, those currently enrolled in Bayer PLUS will not have to re-enroll each year. Your membership will automatically carry over to the new program year.

No, Bayer Plus rewards will not roll over from year to year. For instance, rewards earned in Program Year 2021 between September 1, 2020, and August 31, 2021, expire on April 30, 2022, and your account balance will be reset to $0. Purchases during Program Year 2022 between September 1, 2021, and August 31, 2022, expire on April 30, 2023, and your account balance will be reset to $0.

To qualify for redemption, your rewards balance must be at least $1,500 for Bayer PLUS Rewards, $500 for Bayer PLUS Potato, or $500 for Bayer PLUS Southern Fruit and Vegetable.

If you have redeemed all Available Rewards, that amount will show $0 while the Total Rewards keeps track of how much you have earned in the program altogether. If you have Available Rewards, 50% of that may be requested starting May 1, 2021. You will still see Total Rewards until the other 50% is unlocked during the 100% timeframe. 100% of rewards may be requested starting November 1, 2021, through April 30, 2022.

If you have not redeemed any rewards and Available Rewards is $0 while you have an amount in your Total Rewards, you have not reached the minimum required for redemption. Your rewards must be at least $1,500 for Bayer PLUS Rewards, $500 for Bayer PLUS Potato, or $500 for Bayer PLUS Southern Fruit and Vegetable.

Overview:

There has been a mid-year update to the 2022 Bayer PLUS Rewards program. Growers who have or will purchase XtendiMax^® Herbicide with VaporGrip^® Technology* and a qualifying Product Portfolio Incentive herbicide during the eligible purchase period (9/1/21 – 8/30/22) will no longer be required to purchase a Roundup^® Brand Agricultural Herbicide to qualify to earn rewards. This program update can reassure growers of our commitment to XtendiMax herbicide and the XtendFlex^® platform to offer growers application flexibility in their fight against weeds.

*XtendiMax^® Herbicide with VaporGrip^® Technology must be used with VaporGrip^® Xtra Agent (or an approved equivalent vapor-reducing agent).

This year, growers who have qualified for either Product Portfolio Incentive or Roundup^® Brand Agricultural Herbicide Incentive first, can now unlock Valent products the same way as the agronomic add-ons, and they calculate the same way, meaning not limited to matching acres.

Loyalty Rewards:

Growers who qualify for Bayer PLUS Rewards can earn an additional 10% on their rewards dollars by sending all (or a portion) of their check to a Bayer retailer of their choice. To qualify growers must meet the $1,500 rewards minimum and select a dollar amount in the portal redemption screen that is over $500.

Two Ways to Unlock to Earn:

There are now two ways to unlock to earn. The first way to unlock your Bayer PLUS Rewards is to buy two or more eligible products in the Product Portfolio Incentives category.
