After activating a Viking Deal, you’ll receive a **confirmation email** following your purchase or booking. Then, you’ll need to **wait for the partner’s approval** before your points become available. On each specific partner's [page](https://mobilevikings.be/en/viking-deals/), you’ll find an **overview** of when you can expect the confirmation email and the average waiting period before your Viking Points become available. **Once approved**, you can use your Viking Points immediately. ### What if the Viking I referred didn’t use my link or phone number? No problem. Have that person [contact our helpdesk](https://mobilevikings.be/en/support#contact) as soon as possible with your name and phone number. We’ll make sure you still receive your Viking Points. ### What are reserved Viking Points? Reserved Viking Points are Viking Points that are (temporarily) unavailable because they are being used for a transaction, such as a top-up or the payment of your invoice or payment invitation. When you use Viking Points for a payment, the points are reserved until the transaction is completed - usually within a few minutes. If your top-up fails or you don't complete it, the reservation might take a bit longer, and your Viking Points can remain reserved for up to 24 hours. But no worries: you won’t lose them. Do you have a subscription and see reserved Viking Points? Then they will automatically be used as a discount on your next invoice or payment invitation. ### How do I gift my Viking points to another Viking? Go to the Viking points overview in your [My Viking account](https://mobilevikings.be/en/my-viking/viking-points?spc=share-viking-points) and click on ‘Share Viking points’. ### What if I have multiple subscriptions on my account? Your Viking points will be automatically deducted from the next upcoming invoice or payment invitation on your account. You can’t choose which subscription they’re used for. ### Can I use Viking Points for an invoice or payment invitation I’ve already received? No, Viking points you receive after a payment invitation or invoice will automatically be used for your next one. They can’t be applied retroactively.
