May Frequent Shopper Club Promotion

We are currently in the process of reconstructing our frequent shopper program to make it more fun and rewarding. While we are doing that I decided to create a rewarding May promotion which is super simple. The more you shop, the bigger the bonus per order is. Just follow this chart:
Amount of orders in May      Bonus Per Order
3-5       $0.15 per order
6-10       $0.25 per order
11-25       $0.50 per order
26+       Flat $15 bonus
*At least 75% of the orders must be $25 or more before shipping/tax/coupons
**All the orders must be placed on or after May 1st until May 31st. It is ok if the orders don’t credit on May 31st and credit a few days later. We count the order date not when the instant creditor picks up the order.
***Ebay transactions are excluded from this bonus (see below for Ebay tiers).

Tier for EBAY
Amount of orders in May       Bonus Per Order
3-5       $0.05 per order
6-10       $0.10 per order
11+       $0.15 per order
*At least 75% of the Ebay orders must be $5 or more before shipping/tax/coupons

CLAIMING BONUSES:
Email support@quickrewards.net the first week of June with the total amount of orders (starting MAY 1) to receive the bonus.

Very important update regarding surveys

***PLEASE LET OTHERS KNOW ABOUT THIS UPDATE***

Later in the week we will be signing a contract with a new survey company. Because of that we changed the surveys section. Partnering with this company will allow us to distribute a lot more $1-$10 targeted surveys. In order for you to receive them you MUST fill out a quick one page profiler we created.

In order to fill out the profiler go to SURVEYS section and then you will see a box on the left that says take a profiler. Failure to fill out this profiler will mean that you will only see daily surveys or non-targeted surveys.

Let us know if you have any questions.

The Children's Place is back!

QuickRewards is proud to announce that one of our most popular stores The Children's Place is back in our shopping section! You will receive 3.1% cash back per order.

New idea waiting for your feedback

I was thinking of this idea for a while, but today I had some free time so I decided to just ask you about it.

There are a lot of members that shop online frequently and find a lot of very good deals that are just unbelievable. I was thinking of making a contest or rewarding those who share deals with other members. For example if today Kohl’s is selling item X at 50% off and there is also a 20% off QR coupon not many members will know about this, but one member will. Would members be interested in sharing their great deals/finds on the blog? Of course it would need to be a merchant that QR has in the shopping section. If this merchant also has coupons I would edit the blog and add the coupons to maximize the savings and maybe even increase the % cash back rate. If a deal that someone posts is popular (other members place an order to buy this item or take advantage of this sale) this specific member gets some kind of a bonus. What you think about this? Are there QR shoppers who would participate in this? We would need more than one person to help us with this to make it possible.


UPDATED QUESTION: Do you all want to start this right away or wait until the QR blog comes out later in the week (I hope)

CONTEST: What I would like to see on the blog….

We are in the process of redesigning the blog so that we can have our own internal blog and not use this Google one. This will allow all QR members to communicate since you will not need a Google account to post. Our own blog will also allow us to have more flexibility in terms of bumping content up (Google does not let me do that) as well as post multiple subjects at once without you having to scroll down the blog. Another great benefit (for our Monthly blog contest) is that you will no longer have to scroll down through 100 responses. There will also be more member interaction.

Contest:
We want to know what you would like to see in the new blog. What do you like/don’t like about this current blog. Any suggestions on what the new blog should focus on?

Leave a comment or send a response to support@quickrewards.net. Later next week we will select two winners. Each will receive a choice of M or XL QuickRewards Tshirt!
