Drive Volume & Prepare for Launch
Week 3 is focused on building momentum and driving meaningful volume ahead of launch. This is the week to activate bulk buyers, secure sponsors, and make sure your Community Card program launches with impact.
What should I be focused on in Week 3?
Week 3 is about scale and visibility. Your priorities should include:
Identifying organizations that can purchase Community Cards in bulk
Securing sponsors for buy-one-get-one (BOGO) promotions
Lining up at least one major partner to support launch-day momentum
Why are bulk purchases important?
Bulk purchases bring immediate volume into your Community Card program and help circulate more dollars through local businesses from day one.
Local governments, hospitals, universities, and corporations often purchase Community Cards for:
Employee rewards and incentives
Holiday gifts
Client appreciation programs
Community or economic development initiatives
These purchases increase awareness, expand reach, and drive more spending at participating merchants.
What is the Rewards Hub?
The Rewards Hub is Yiftee’s bulk purchasing and rewards solution for organizations that want to buy Community Cards at scale.
It allows organizations to purchase, distribute, and manage Community Cards for employee rewards, client appreciation, incentives, and sponsored programs such as BOGOs.
Who should use the Rewards Hub?
The Rewards Hub is ideal for:
Local governments and municipalities
Hospitals and healthcare organizations
Universities and school districts
Corporations and large employers
Nonprofits and foundations
Sponsors funding BOGO promotions
How does the Rewards Hub work?
Organizations purchase Community Cards in bulk through the Rewards Hub and distribute them digitally to employees, clients, or program participants. Recipients can spend their cards at participating local merchants.
Yiftee provides hands-on support to guide organizations through setup, purchasing, and distribution.
What are the benefits of using the Rewards Hub?
Organizations using the Rewards Hub can:
Purchase Community Cards in bulk with no per-card fees
Distribute cards digitally at scale
Manage recipients and reporting in one place
Receive personalized setup and ongoing support from Yiftee
For communities, Rewards Hub purchases drive large-scale local spending and help maximize economic impact.
What is a BOGO program?
A BOGO (buy-one-get-one) program incentivizes consumers by offering a bonus Community Card when they make a purchase. For example, buy a $100 Community Card and receive an additional $50 Community Card for free.
BOGOs are a powerful way to drive urgency and increase purchase volume.
Who typically sponsors BOGO programs?
Most commonly, local governments sponsor BOGOs as part of:
Economic development initiatives
Downtown revitalization efforts
Shop-local campaigns
Other potential sponsors include credit unions, real estate and development firms, and large local employers.
How does the Rewards Hub support BOGO programs?
Sponsors use the Rewards Hub to purchase the bonus Community Cards offered in BOGO promotions. Yiftee helps structure the program and manage distribution.
In exchange for sponsorship, organizations can be recognized through:
Branding on the Community Card webpage or digital cards
Press releases and media outreach
Social media and blog content
In-store signage and promotional materials
Do I need to manage bulk sales or sponsorships myself?
No. Your Yiftee Community Engagement Manager is trained to handle bulk purchase and sponsorship conversations.
They can:
Set up no-fee Rewards Hub accounts for qualifying organizations
Provide marketing and sales materials
Assist with sponsor outreach
Close sales once introductions are made
Your role is simply to make the introductions.
How many bulk buyers or sponsors should I aim for?
Your goal for Week 3 is to have at least one bulk purchaser or BOGO sponsor confirmed by launch. Even a single partner can create meaningful launch momentum and visibility.
What should I do this week to get started?
This week, you should:
Identify potential bulk buyers and sponsors in your community
Introduce them to your Community Engagement Manager
Discuss bulk purchasing or BOGO strategies with Yiftee
Align one partner to support launch-day activity
