ColorCodePurple Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Today, we’re excited to share news of the launch of PlayStation Rewards, a new program that recognizes and rewards our users for simply doing what they love – playing games and interacting with the entertainment content that PlayStation has to offer. We really wanted to create something that says, “thank you” for being a loyal PlayStation fan. In its initial launch tomorrow (Oct. 28th), PlayStation Rewards will be an invitation-only beta to all eligible PlayStation Plus and Gamer Advisory Panel (GAP) members. We’re kicking things off as a beta so that we can get feedback from our most loyal fans in order to make it the best possible rewards program it can be. It’s also worth noting that during the beta phase, the program will be focused on PlayStation 3 owners, but we hope to include PSP users as well not too far down the road. Oh, and one more thing: PlayStation Rewards will be free – there is no fee to join! Now, to give you a bit more details on the new loyalty program… PlayStation Rewards is designed to give you the opportunity to gain exclusive status, recognition, and rewards as a thank you for your continued interest in PlayStation. And, the best part is that you don’t have to do anything different. Keep playing new games, buying content purchased from PlayStation Network in the PlayStation Store and PlayStation Home, download movies and TV shows, or just communicate with us by taking one of our surveys, for example, and you’ll now be recognized for it. The more you play and participate, the more progress you’ll make through our three reward tiers — “Select,” “Pro,” and “Legendary.” As your status increases, so do the rewards. And if you want to check out your current status level, simply go to your private profile page and look at the reward progress meter. So what do you get? Right now, rewards include things like… Exclusive PSN avatars that display member status in the program Exclusive dynamic themes and PlayStation Home content Opportunities throughout the program year to participate in members-only sweepstakes and giveaways for experiences and merchandise you won’t find elsewhere (The first of which is an all expenses paid trip to the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, as PlayStation’s guest) That’s just the start and our plan is to continually grow and improve the reward offering as the program itself evolves. Your feedback in this beta period will help make the program even better!! If you’re a GAP member or PlayStation Plus subscriber in the U.S., who is opted-in to marketing as of October 24th, be sure to look for your invitation and sign-up for PlayStation Rewards. To learn more about our new loyalty program, check back tomorrow when the site will be live and the beta forum will be available for all eligible participants. We look forward to showing you our appreciation along the way! SOURCE innovative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColorCodePurple Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Here is what gamespot says PlayStation Rewards announcedBy Eddie Makuch, GameSpotPosted Oct 27, 2010 10:34 am PT Sony drops details on free tiered "loyalty program"; closed beta invitations going out to PS Plus, GAP members tomorrow; full release coming spring 2011. This summer, Sony launched the PlayStation Plus service, a subscription plan that offers gamers access to free games, early demos, beta invites, discounts, free themes, and more for $50 a year. Now, the company has announced a second loyalty program, but this one is free. The Sony faithful will soon be rewarded for their habits. Today, Sony announced PlayStation Rewards, a free tiered program aimed at rewarding the publisher's faithful. According to the company, the new program was designed to allow players to "gain exclusive status, recognition, and rewards based on a variety of PlayStation-centric activity they engage in across the PlayStation ecosystem." Users enrolled in PlayStation Rewards will be able to earn PSN avatars, dynamic themes, PlayStation Home content, and an opportunity to participate in sweepstakes and giveaways. They'll also have a chance to win a trip to the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which runs January 6-9 in Las Vegas. PlayStation Rewards will feature three reward tiers: Select, Pro, and Legendary. Users will climb through the ranks based on their "level of engagement" with the "Sony ecosystem." These activities include buying content from the PlayStation Store, playing a game for the first time, or taking PlayStation surveys. Further, users will be able to check their PSN profile page for information on how close they are to reaching the next tier. The program will begin as an invite-only closed beta, and will roll out in full during spring 2011. Sony did not announce the exact criteria needed to earn an invitation to the beta, but did disclose that being a current PlayStation Plus or Gamer Advisory Panel (GAP) member would help. Beta invitations for those selected will begin being distributed tomorrow, October 28. Lastly, Sony said that while the closed beta will be focused on PS3 owners, it hopes to include PSP gamers somewhere "down the road." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
