Creating an online account or participating in a financial incentive program such as loyalty programs or coupon-based initiatives administered by us or our partners may entitle you to receive special offers and benefits from us.

For our loyalty programs, such as Huggies® Rewards+, members may earn coupons or reward points for signing up, purchasing our products, and participating in certain other activities, such as taking surveys, sharing posts on Facebook and Twitter, and connecting friends to our loyalty and discount programs. These points can be used toward entering sweepstakes and games, donating to charity and redeeming rewards.
