With no minimum purchase

GOLD LEVEL

15% off

With $14,000 AUD in cumulative purchases in a 12-month period.

PLATINUM LEVEL

Gold and Platinum status are granted at the company level, so all members of the same company will have the same membership tier. Purchases (net of returns) made at any of our brands within a 12-month period, whether online, through a retail location or a dedicated Trade Representative, by any registered professional of the same company, will count towards membership upgrades.

Membership status is reviewed at the beginning of each month. If your company qualifies for an upgrade based on previous 12-month purchases, you will automatically receive, via email, a temporary membership card reflecting your new membership status. Your new permanent membership card will arrive in the mail within the following 6-8 weeks. For questions regarding your company’s upgrade status, email a dedicated Trade Representative at tradeau@wsgc.com.
