Going crazy for points
MANILA, Philippines – What would you do to get an iPod? Or a digital camera? How about an LCD TV or a trip to Boracay? If the answer is, “almost anything”, you will love Gimme Points, the newest offer from My Rewards, My Globe and TM Astig Rewards, that makes it a cinch to get rewards for using Globe prepaid or TM. Not only can you earn points every time you reload, now you can also grab points from family and friends, as long as you’re willing to do whatever silly thing they require of you.
Pose a brazen challenge to your family for a “Nobody” dance showdown so you can show off your fancy footwork and take home everyone’s points. You can be a magnanimous winner and snag everyone free passes to fun places like Avilon Zoo; all you need is for four of you to cough up 225 points each and you’ll all get in for free. Or if you rack up over 11,000 points from everyone, go for broke and get yourself that TCL LCD TV you’ve always wanted.
Promise to wash the cars of three of your burger-loving buddies and they just might pitch in 200 points each to net you a P500 Jollibee gift check. Belt out “Baby” Bieber-style to convince 10 of your karaoke-crazy barkada to pony up just 650 points apiece, so everyone can sing along with a Wow Videoke Fiesta 2010. And this could be the time to promise your spouse extra hours with the in-laws or a week’s worth of back rubs; you could get a bonanza of points from your partner, enough to earn PAL Miles for a Bangkok escape or a Sydney getaway.
Once you’ve found someone willing to give you their points, all they need to do is text SHARE<space> YOUR 10-digit MOBILE NUMBER <space>points to 4438. It’s as simple as that, and they can do it anytime, anywhere.
And once you’ve racked up a ton of points, exchanging them for perks is so easy that millions of Globe and TM users have already used their points to earn hot-ticket items like the coveted SM Gift Checks, the gadget geek’s much-desired 4GB USB and the Canon Digicam A490 for aspiring shutterbugs. And of course avid texters have long loved the texting bonuses like Sulitxt 15, which gives you 100 texts to your friends Globe and TM and Unlitxt 20 for a whole day’s worth of unlimited texting to other Globe and TM fans.
Globe head of loyalty and CRM, Jay Beltran, says, “We want to make earning points even easier so you can get the prize you’ve always dreamed of. Gimme Points offers you a great catalog of rewards and then lets you be as creative as you like in order to get the one you want. This is a new and fun reason to be Globe-connected!”
