Access Development announced today that it has expanded its relationship with Firethorn Mobile, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Qualcomm, to enlist merchants for its SWAGG™ mobile application and its SWAGG GIFTS virtual gift card program. The agreement is a continuation of a collaborative relationship that has seen Access enlist thousands of merchants for the SWAGG offers feature.
Under the agreement, Access will continue to collaborate with SWAGG by adding hundreds more brands to the popular SWAGG GIFT component. SWAGG GIFT gives consumers the ability to purchase, send and swap virtual gift cards from merchants, which currently include a number of major retailers.
“SWAGG gives consumers a new way to interact with their favorite brands, and we’re confident Access can expand our merchant network and exceed our consumers’ expectations,” says Rocco Fabiano, president of Firethorn Mobile. “With SWAGG, consumers can get offers from more than 4,000 merchants across the U.S., as well as buy and send digital gift cards from participating merchants. Access Development has been an asset in helping extend SWAGG’s reach among the merchant community.”
“Adding virtual gift card acquisition to our relationship with SWAGG is a natural extension to what we’ve done as a company for over 25 years,” says Kelly Passey, EVP of business and product development at Access. “We work with merchants every day to help them reach new consumers, and tapping into the young, savvy SWAGG demographic is exactly what many of our partners are looking for.”
The SWAGG mobile app is currently available for iPhone and Android platforms by downloading it from the App Store or Android Market or by visiting swagg.com/.
