All stays booked with Center Parcs count towards the Friends loyalty programme.
The benefits and rewards of the Friends programme do not apply to stays at Terhills Resort in Belgium (for example, the Activity Credit, Early Check-in, preferred location, etc. are not available at this park).
In addition:
- Bookings for day passes in any park, including Terhills Resort, do not count towards the Friends loyalty programme and do not grant badges or benefits.
- All customers who have booked via the centerparcs.eu website, through our Center Parcs customer contact center or directly at one of the parks are eligible for the Center Parcs loyalty programma.
- If you make two consecutive bookings for the same park and for consecutive dates, these will be considered as one single stay for the purpose of calculating your status.

[FRIENDS] How can I view my status and access my loyalty area?

Once you have made a booking, you can access your loyalty area directly through your My Center Parcs account or via the Center Parcs app.

To log in, use the email address you used when making your booking on our website or app.Then, from the Profile menu, go to your Loyalty area.

[FRIENDS] What should I do if my badges don’t appear or if there’s an issue with my loyalty area?

If you cannot see your badges in your My Center Parcs loyalty area, please check that you are logged in with the email address you used when making your bookings.
If you have used different email addresses for multiple bookings, a separate account will have been created for each address.Your badges and levels are therefore calculated individually for each account, based on the booking history linked to each email address.
If several people live at the same postal address but make bookings using different email addresses, please note that badges and levels are strictly personal and calculated per account/email address.They cannot be shared within the same household.Only bookings made with the same email address count towards collecting benefits on a single account.
Please note: if you make two consecutive bookings at the same park and for consecutive dates, these will be treated as one single stay when calculating your status.
If the issue persists, please call our Customer Service.Our advisors are trained to answer all your questions about the Friends programme.

[FRIENDS] Do the badges and/or benefits expire?

Good news: once you’ve earned a badge, you’ll never lose it!

However, in accordance with GDPR regulations (for more information, see our policy on the protection of personal data), Center Parcs may be required to delete your profile (including your loyalty area) after several years of inactivity, which would result in the loss of your benefits.You can also choose to unsubscribe from the programme at any time, which means you will forfeit your benefits.

Tip: Check your loyalty area regularly in theCenter Parcs app to make sure your benefits are still valid and to avoid missing out on any offers. You’ll also receive notifications by email.

[FRIENDS] How can you benefit from the Friends loyalty offers?

These offers give you access to exclusive discounts valid for a selection of arrival dates, cottage types, and parks. Each offer also has its own specific validity period.
The more badges and levels you unlock, the more advantageous your loyalty offers become.
For example: once you earn the “Welcome” badge, you gain access to the loyalty offers.And when you unlock the “Adventurous Spirit” badge (Level 1), your loyalty offers become even more attractive, you’ll also receive free preferred location from then on.
