7-Eleven announced earlier this week that it has kicked off a new rewards program known as 7Rewards. The new loyalty program will reward customers with a free drink after they purchase six drinks. The company also announced an updated mobile app, required to take advantage of the new loyalty program.
Included in the app is a digital “punch card” with a scannable bar code on the home screen.
“Every time a customer purchases a cup, the cashier will scan the barcode in the app, and a “punch” will automatically appear within the app. Each purchase earns a punch that shows up as a star icon in the app. After receiving six punches, or stars, a “You earned a free cup” notification appears in the app. The punchcard process starts over once the free beverage is redeemed. Links to Facebook and Twitter on the app’s home screen let the user tell their friends about their rewards.”
7-Eleven says there are no limits to how many drinks you buy in a day, so you could rack up a free Slurpee or Big Gulp a day if you so wished. (Thank heaven for 7-Eleven… Restrooms! – Ed.)
The 7-Eleven app is available FREE for the iPhone in the App Store. [DIRECT LINK]
