FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., July 30, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Adfone Inc., a mobile rewards developer, launches a new ad-funded carrier rewards app and program, named Ad it Up™, that allows Cricket Wireless customers to view targeted ads and offers on their smartphone and earn points redeemable for Cricket bill credits and digital gift cards. The app will be pre-loaded on millions of select Cricket Android phones. Customers will have the option to opt-in or out directly from their device.
With smartphones users worldwide spending over four hours a day on their devices, the Ad it Up™ program embraces a new format of advertising content that puts the power of rewards in customers' hands. Upon registering for the optional program, customers select their unique interests and level of engagement through personal preferences and settings within the program.
