Using the free Hawkeye Rewards mobile app, consumers will save money, get access to special events, and take advantage of promotions while earning and redeeming points at participating merchants’ locations. Points are accrued when consumers make purchases from participating merchants, and can be redeemed by any participating merchant regardless of where points were earned.
Merchants in the program benefit from direct exposure to a tremendous base of new customers via the extensive reach of the Hawkeye Rewards mobile and web platforms, which also provide the ability to offer exclusive promotions associated with the powerful Tigerhawk logo whenever and as often as they wish.
