What are the main benefits of the ADR programme?
In addition to being able to manage your ADR in your own time over the internet, you can earn product points on your monthly or bi-monthly orders that can be redeemed for free products.
What are the rewards of ADR?
The ADR program rewards include automatic monthly (or bi-monthly) processing of your order on the date of your choice (between day 01 and 25 of each month) and accumulation of ADR points. Only ADR orders with non-exempt products will earn ADR points.
How does one enrol on ADR?

Are there any requirements to create an ADR account?
No, there are no requirements to create an ADR account. However, your ADR order must have a minimum value of 50 SV after discount to earn product points. If the minimum value is not met, then the ADR simply becomes a regular, reoccurring monthly order without the ADR benefits.
Can I have an ADR order shipped more than once per month?
No, each ADR order may only be shipped once per month. You can, however, have more than one ADR in parallel on the same Nu Skin ID number.
How do I make changes to (manage) my ADR?
You can make changes to your ADR online.The Manage ADR option is located in the drop-down menu under your name in the upper right-hand corner of your screen.
By when should I make any changes to my ADR?
We recommend making any changes at least 5 business days before the process date (if Direct Debit payment option is available in your market and you choose this as a payment method, please contact your local Customer Service to receive the correct information on changing your ADR) to ensure that your change takes effect.
Will I be notified when my order ships?
Yes, you will be sent an email 5 days before the order is shipped. You will also be sent an order confirmation email when the order is created, and a tracking email is sent out every time your ADR is shipped. This email contains information that ensures you can track your order until you receive it.
How do I pay for my ADR order?
You may pay for your ADR order with a credit card or any other payment type of your choice, which is available in your market.
What can be managed online?
You can change the products, the shipping frequency, payment type (wire transfer or credit card), addresses, place an override and redeem product points (see section on overrides for more information). The only thing that cannot be managed online is ADR holds.
What should I do if I start to acquire too many products?
If you notice that you are experiencing a product stockpile, adjust your order to fit your needs. You can change your products or your ship date.
What will happen if a product is out of stock?
If an item is out of stock, then this item will be removed from your ADR and automatically added back as soon as we are back in stock.
Can I redeem my product points in other countries?
No, you can only redeem product points in the country where they were earned. Example: if you have a German ADR, you can only redeem your product points in Germany.
If I return a product, will the product points I earned be deducted?
Yes, the amount of product points that product earned will be deducted from your total points.
If I cancel my ADR, do I lose my product points?

What is an override?
An override order is a new ADR order that will take the place of your existing ADR order for the current month. For example, if you normally have a monthly ADR order ship on day 20 of each month, you can go online and place an override order on day 12 with different product(s) with a minimum of 50 SV if you want to get the full ADR benefits), different payment type and a different shipping address and have it replace your order scheduled to ship on day 20. You will receive the same product discount and product points that you would normally, and your monthly shipment will simply be held until the next month.

If you want to get the full ADR benefits, yes, the override needs to be a minimum of 50 SV.

How can I reactivate a cancelled ADR?
You can reactivate your cancelled ADR by contacting your local Customer Service. If you call within 30 days after cancelling your ADR, your previous point balance will be awarded back to your reactivated ADR account.
