Message: [QUOTE="Consigliere, post: 2680364, member: 559"] There was a major update to the Cuse Athletics app last week. If you have not downloaded the updated app, Rewards will not work. I believe the emails offering the Sign Up and STH bonuses detailed this. This was a pet initiative of mine when I joined Cuse Council last year. SideArm had something on their radar but was looking for a partner to pilot with. When we launched Student Rewards last year we were the first school to introduce a Rewards App. Stanford was second. Based on the success of Students Rewards the department decided to launch for all fans. Was surprised that some pretty premium gifts carry pretty reasonable "price tags." I had 2618 points after yesterday's game and my iPhone died around halftime so I missed some opportunities. Not to mention the "likes" feature where you earn 2 points for ever "like" one of your photos gets. So 50 games at that level gets me a trip on the team plane for two to an away basketball game??? there is a great range of gifts too. With my 2618 points I'm one third of the way to the 7500 I need for Club 44 passes or a T-shirt. Or halfway to the 4000 I need foe 2 sideline passes for the UNC game. Nice! And this is really nice for locals as you earn points for attending ANY athletic event, not just the revenue sports. As Bees notes, it's not the scanning of tickets that earns points for you. Venues are geo-fenced and you need to have location services enabled on your device and for the app to get credit for attending. I have three issues with the app: 1. I have 2618 points but can't see a detailed breakdown of how i earned them. Would like to be able to see a more detailed statement. 2. Most of the functionality is only visible if you are at the event. I posted a tailgate picture in one of the Challenges and would have liked to view all the submissions after the game but you must be at the event to see that section. 3. The rewards store shows only a thumbnail and brief description. Most of the descriptions are truncated and you can't simply click on the thumbnail and see more detail. For example there is a thumbnail of a plane on the runway titled "Basketball Away Trip for Two (2) with a description "Like to travel? Want to travel with the team? Take away one of...." May also suggest an instructional video pre game to help introduce basic functionality to the less tech savvy of the fan base. Overall, a solid, innovative effort and part of what I would grade a strong B+ effort at achieving Wildhack's goal of greatly enhancing the fan experience. [/QUOTE]
