New York, NY (PRWEB) February 16, 2017
bevRAGE (http://www.bevrage.com), the five-star mobile app launched with great fanfare last August, is proud to have delivered $1.5 million in rebates to its users on beer, wine and spirits purchased at bars, restaurants and retail stores. bevRAGE is now in hyper-growth, and has appointed leading alcoholic beverage trade agency, Colangelo & Partners (http://www.colangelopr.com) to support rapid expansion. To date, bevRAGE has partnered with more than 80 brands including Absolut, Stolichnaya, Captain Morgan’s, Carnivor, Perrier Jouet and Heineken.
bevRAGE’s benefits for brand partners and retailers are powerful and highly efficient. Retailers are encouraging customers to utilize the app for savings on brands – at no cost to the retailer and with no fulfillment requirements. For the first time, brand partners can use a promotional engine to drive sales with visibility and access to transaction level data. Offers can be created and targeted based on consumption behavior and ROI is measured across multiple dimensions.
“bevRAGE has proven to be an excellent platform that provides our customers an easy way to benefit from their off-premise and on-premise purchases. It’s easy for customers to identify brand interests and to redeem rebates on selected portions of their purchases once they download the app. And it has given our brands an additional, exciting digital presence,” said Anna D’Aloisio, Brand Manager at Excelsior Wines.
Co-founder of bevRAGE, Rich Vogel says that bevRAGE is simple to use, highly targeted and built on consumer engagement. “The app delivers genuine value to the trade through a rebate platform – meeting the needs of both brand partners and retailers. bevRAGE is the first app built to drive sales and produce account level data for the supply chain.”
For the consumer, using bevRAGE is as simple as clipping a coupon – but redemption is quicker and verified. Customers simply download the app, browse through offers, snap a photo of their receipt and receive their money as fast as 48 hours after submission.
bevRAGE is suited to both off-premise and on-premise promotion, and is available for free download in 42 states from the Apple App Store or Google Play. Users must be over 21.
