TruCash Teams up with the Buffalo Sabres to launch the SABREBUCKS Rewards Program!

Mississauga, Ontario -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/05/2010 -- Paybefore has chosen The Buffalo Sabres "Sabrebucks" Season Ticket Holder Rewards Program as a Paybefore Awards Outstanding New Entrant in the best card category.

Paybefore Awards, now in their fourth year, are the most prestigious recognition of excellence in the worldwide prepaid and stored value card industry. They are presented annually by Prepaid Media, whose Paybefore publications are the leading source of industry information for the global prepaid community.

According to Diana Fletcher, President at DCR, "It exceeded expectations and continues to be popular as subsequent card orders have been placed. Discover was able to provide the payments functionality necessary to meet DCR's needs and ultimately help the Sabres reach their objectives. As the program continues to evolve, other NHL teams and corporate sponsors have expressed an interest in becoming involved."

"The SabreBucks program is very popular with Sabres fans, especially our Season Ticket Holders," said Tom Matheny, Database Marketing Manager for the Buffalo Sabres. "This season's program is better than ever because of the flexibility offered by the TruCa$h Discover® card. Fans love the convenience the card provides and the additional rewards it offers."

The Sabrebucks Season Ticket Holder Rewards Program was selected by a panel of five industry experts who served as judges for this year's competition, which included a record number of entries from around the world. This is the first year Paybefore Awards included the distinction of Outstanding New Entrant, which recognizes programs the judges found particularly valuable, innovative or worthy. The Paybefore Awards judges bestowed this distinction in only 10 of 16 categories of competition.

"Paybefore applauds the Outstanding New Entrants that are offering innovative prepaid programs that benefit consumers, governments and businesses," said Marilyn Bochicchio, Paybefore CEO and chair of the judging panel. "DCR Strategies Inc., was recognized among tough competition for its progressive use of prepaid products."

In the spring of 2009, DCR Strategies, Inc. embarked on a journey with the Sabres to develop a multifaceted program – one that provided valuable couponing information and loyalty building opportunities. Through the Discover network and DCR's TruCa$h Rewards program, the companies developed two different reloadable prepaid loyalty programs – one for Season Ticket and Mini-Pack Holders and one for gift card purchasers. These "SabreBucks" cards can only be used within the HSBC Arena and allow users to track purchases and the card's balance.

As the program evolves, fans will receive discounts and privileges like invitations to watch game day practices, player introductions, seasonal promotion and discounts on team attire and stadium concessions. Fans will be able to use their cards in other unique ways, such as accessing an online catalog of autographed team merchandise for sale and other perks. The limited edition items will have a predetermined SabreBuck value and include autographed player pucks and jerseys, as well as exclusive seating in the press box and intermission Zamboni rides.

The SabreBucks Card also is available in gift card form. This stored value card replaces traditional paper gift certificates and can be purchased at the Sabres Store or arena for a minimal fee. These cards, too, are reloadable and allow the user to track purchases and balances. Gift card holders get access to special programs from the Sabres and Buffalo Bandits.

Designed to motivate travel agents to utilize our coalition of corporate points-issuing partners, the IMAGINE program gives agents a value-based reason to select one preferred product/ service provider over another.

Toronto, Ontario -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/17/2009 -- The TruCa$h IMAGINE travel agent incentive program; a dynamic loyalty program rewarding and motivating individual Travel Agents with cash based rewards, has launched in the U.S.A.

Strategically designed to motivate and increase sales at the grassroots level; this program encourages travel agents to be brand specific and service loyal. Each time an agent books a vacation package with the Skylink group of companies or other coalition partner brands, they will be rewarded loyalty points.

Unlike other reward programs which limit how and when points can be used, the IMAGINE program facilitates flexible redemption options that convert points directly to cash. Once an agent has accumulated loyalty points, they simply convert them to cash online, and spend them with their IMAGINE Prepaid Card.

Agents also earn reward points at over 1,000 online TruCa$h partners via www.trucash.com. The best part is there is no limit to the number of reward points you can earn. It's that simple, Book, Earn, and Spend.

Award winning programs

Since launching in Canada, in June 2008, the program has seen overwhelming success, recently named winner of the 2009 Paybefore Awards in the Best B2B Corporate-Funded Prepaid Card category.

"We are very excited about this program", Diana Fletcher President of DCR Strategies/TruCash states. "This new concept of delivering incentive base loyalty programs where you are able to convert your points to cash in real time is revolutionary. We expect to see continued success with the launch of the U.S. Imagine Program.`` See www.imagine.trucash.com.

How does the agent apply?

To enrol and receive a card, visit www.imagine.trucash.com. Agents receive 300 Bonus Points, for simply logging on and activating their account. Participating agents will also be able to manage their reward points through their own virtual account, accessible only through their personal and secure "e-Wallet."

What's in it for the partners?
Want to immediately impact sales? Want a positive ROI statement? Want to have a dedicated sales force of over 250,000 agents pushing your service to all their customers? The IMAGINE program rewards the agents each time they select one of our partner's services over their competitor; instantly increasing their booking revenue by leveraging the strength of many with the convenience of one program. Especially now in this economic downturn, service companies are utilizing incentive promotion to sell their products and get top of mind consideration to their distributors. This program provides the conduit to achieve both objectives; resulting in a motivated sales force to book your services.
