WASHINGTON, DC – Snipp Interactive Inc. (“Snipp” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: SNIPF; TSXV: SPN), a global provider of digital marketing promotions, rebates and loyalty solutions, today announced that it will add brand-name electronic goods for brand partners as rewards in Snipp programs through Best Buy for Business.
The first of these, currently live in market, is a game based program for a leading Italian food company. Consumers who purchase the brand products upload a receipt to earn a chance to spin a prize wheel. Prizes include a branded mini instant camera. For the second program, Snipp will manage the rewards for an ongoing internal employee training program of an American multinational technology company. Employees who complete one of several training courses within the allotted time earn an entry into a monthly prize drawing.
“We have one of the largest catalogs of rewards available to brands and we’re thrilled that Best Buy for Business will help expand that selection. Our brand partners are always looking for unique ways in which to reward their consumers and brand-name electronics is a great way to do so,” Said Atul Sabharwal, CEO of Snipp. “Brands and their agencies will be able to not only use these as rewards, but will also be able to work with Snipp to get those brand-name logos on their creative for their promotions as well, furthering the effectiveness of their program with us.”
