Well, I consider this a lesson learned. If I decide to offer a rewards system in my program someday I will keep an amount equal to the total translated reward cost of all affiliates in reserve just in case.
I haven't redeemed my points at ARS yet. I don't want to be a burden on them because they already have enough to deal with. I'll just save mine until a good opportunity comes along to use them or until I really need to redeem them for something.
