Important changes to the token loyalty program starting January 2008 - 2007-11-01 00:00:00 Dmitry
We have new and excited news to share with you regarding the terms of our token loyalty program. We heard feedback from our members and listened to what you had to say. As a result, we are redesigning the loyalty token program starting January 2008.
Starting today your tokens will never expire however in January 2008, you will not be able to redeem them for gift cards due to the fact that some advertisers dont allow rewarding cash for certain offers and only allow rewarding tokens. This new rule will allow us to bring in new advertisers on board. You will only be able to redeem the tokens for prizes and QR merchandise. To make it clear this change only has to do with loyalty token program. You will still earn cash on the site and redeem them for Paypal or gift cards as you do now.
Another exciting change is that frequent shoppers will earn double the tokens for everything they do. If a member who is not a frequent shopper reaches $25 a month (100% on the bar) they will also be able to double the amount of tokens they earn during that month. Those that dont earn $25 a month will not receive double tokens and will not lose 50% of the tokens.
Finally I know when other sites create changes like this they usually increase the token values of everything. We are not other websites and care about our members. We did our homework. We put ourselves in your shoes and asked ourselves Why should we screw the members who have been so loyal to us?. If we change the rules they will just get frustrated and will not be loyal any more. This will not be the case here with the value increases although we will be adding new merchandise/prizes and the QR branded merchandise will have a lower point value then the non-QR branded merchandise.
I am very sure that everyone will enjoy this new change. We are one of the very few rewards programs that have a loyalty program that rewards their members an additional incentive on top of the everyday reward earnings.
