Golfing widows get their rewards
Long-suffering golfing widows now have the ideal way to take care of their partners' birthdays, Christmas', Father's Day and other special occasions - and it gives them the perfect chance to shop 'til they drop in their favourite stores.
Rewards4golf.com is a revolutionary rewards scheme where members earn points for every pound they spend with some of the UK's most popular retailers including Asda, Tesco, John Lewis, Littlewoods, Currys, Marks & Spencer, Halfords, Superdrug and Amazon.
Thousands have already registered and will redeem their points to claim a host of top-of-the-range golfing rewards such as golf balls, equipment, accessories, shoes and clothing or even golfing breaks.
The scheme means that women (or men!) who play second-fiddle to the golf course every weekend in terms of their partner's affections, can now shop away to their heart's content safe in the knowledge that their spending will be turned into points and redeemed against a host of golfing rewards that will take care of any special occasion.
The scheme is the first of its kind anywhere in the world and its innovative technology means points are automatically collated whenever a registered credit or debit card is used with a participating retailer - meaning the system is both environmentally friendly and hassle-free as there is no need to carry a separate loyalty card.
It takes just one minute to register a card online and is completely free - there really are no hidden charges.
Members can earn points by shopping with more than 200 online retailers and around 3000 high street outlets. In addition, they can register more than one card to contribute to their points' tally, so they can even be rewarded when their partner, friends or family shop.
Rewards4golf.com are offering a free 50 points for every card that is registered meaning there are a potential 750 points available just for registering a maximum of 15 cards on the one account.
The system has the support of the leading high-street banks and has been fully audited by independent security consultants. The points earned by customers are automatically collated in a secure banking fund before being redeemed.
Typical examples of golfing rewards range from a Nike Dri-Fit golf glove or a dozen Titleist ProV1 golf balls to a set of TaylorMade Burner XD irons or a golfing break at Open venue Turnberry.
Colin Whitehead, commercial director at rewards4golf.com, said: "We are delighted to introduce the rewards4golf scheme to golfers and very happy at how well it has been received by people who have already signed up.
"The rewards on offer are fantastic and the fact that members are able to sign up more than one card is extremely beneficial as it means they can accrue points much more quickly.
"It also means that for anyone whose partner is a golfing fanatic, they can shop to their heart's content and then use the points they earn to choose golfing rewards for all manner of special occasions - or even just to atone for their spending sprees!
"We have some of the biggest UK retailers - both online and high street - signed up to participate in the scheme so it makes perfect sense to collect rewards for money that people are already spending with them."
Anyone can sign up to the scheme at www.rewards4golf.com , where they can also browse the huge variety of rewards on offer and see the extensive list of participating retailers.
They can also use the website to manage their accounts, shop with their favourite retailers and keep up-to-date on the points they have accrued.
