3.3.2 An invitation to participate in the promotion using a valid Retirement Plan does not exclude the Referred User from participating with a cost comparison and does not reduce the time period wherein this is an option.
3.4 Once a cost comparison has been completed and discussed with a 10X Retirement Expert, both the Referrer and the Referred User will receive a Takealot.com voucher to the value of R250.
3.5 If within 6 months of being referred, the Referred User becomes a 10X client by taking out a promotional product, irrespective of whether or not a cost comparison was performed, he or she will receive 6 months of zero 10X fees.

3.6 If 3 (three) Referred Users, all of whom have been referred by the same Referrer, become 10X clients (by taking out a promotional product) within 6 months of each of them being referred, then the Referrer shall receive 6 months of zero 10X fees upon the third Referred User taking out a promotional product and becoming a 10X client. If no cost comparison is performed and the Referred User does not become a client within 6 months of the referral, then neither the Referrer nor the Referred User becomes eligible to receive the Takealot.com voucher and the 6 months of zero 10X fees.
