allowing an operator or other person to do so, at the point of sale; or
giving us detail of the Gift Card and authorising the transaction in some way approved by us.
When you authorise a transaction:
you are confirming that the transaction correctly represents the purchase price of the goods or services obtained; and
you are agreeing to pay the amount of that transaction by the reduction of the Remaining Gift Card Value.
Transactions are authorised by you via the following methods:
- entering your gift card barcode, agreeing to the Terms and Conditions and completing the purchase.
Purchases exceeding the Remaining Gift Card Value
Your Gift Card may only be used to make purchases up to the initial Gift Card value or the Remaining Gift Card Value. If you wish to make a purchase for an amount that exceeds the Gift Card value or the Remaining Gift Card Value, you must pay the excess using another payment method.

- Expiry, cancellation and re-issue of Gift Card
Expiry of Gift Cards
As of April 2018 Petstock Gift Cards are not subject to an expiry period and remain valid for use until the balance of the card has been expended. Gift Cards purchased prior to April 2018 remain subject to the 12 month expiry period set upon the original issue of the gift card.
Cancellation and voiding of Gift Cards
Gift Cards cannot be cancelled once they are issued except if voided by Petstock, or if their value is used.
We reserve the right to void any Gift Card that appears to have been defaced, mutilated, altered or tampered with in any way and Petstock may subject Gift Cards to a verification process.
We reserve the right to cancel any Gift Card, or to cancel or suspend the Gift Card program, for any reason at any time without notice. This may be necessary in certain circumstances such as in the case of a change in laws, where we have supply issues or technical issues. In such instances (except those set out in paragraph 2 above) we will elect to provide a refund or a replacement Gift Card.
We reserve the right to correct the balance of your Gift Card if we believe that a clerical or accounting error has occurred.

At Petstock, we're confident that the fish leaving our facility are happy and healthy, however, in the unlikely event that your live fish experience is less than desired, or, you experience a problem, we will guarantee your new fish for 7 days from purchase if the environment that the fish has been placed into is suitable and appropriate. All we ask is that you contact your local Petstock store from where you purchased your fish from, bring in a sample of your aquarium water in a clean container, at least 150ml, to ensure the environment is suitable and safe and your membership card or receipt for proof of purchase.
Once we have tested your water, we will provide you details of the result and help to identify any areas of concern to ensure your new friend is happy and healthy.
In-store Live Fish Guarantee does not apply to live fish ordered online through petstock.com.au.
