(PRWEB) May 6, 2008 -- An updated look, improved feature set and fanatical praise is making RewardScan (www.rewardscan.com) one of the hottest and dare we say "rewarding" places on the Internet. From San Francisco to Singapore, Australia to Atlanta and all in between, businesses can't seem to control their enthusiasm for this business building tool.

"We are rewardscan fanatics!" says Jayne Terry, Director of Marketing & Promotions for the ever popular, TeenFreeway.com. "RewardScan has enabled us to effortlessly grow and expand our company's loyalty point programs beyond our wildest expectations - into a user base of over 1 million active and enthusiastic teens. We look forward to continuing to recruit and captivate new teen visitors with RewardScan."

With this type of fan base, it's no wonder RewardScan has become one of the new breed of Web 2.0-style online applications that are revolutionizing and blurring the distinction between computers and network. From coffee shacks to vintage clothing shops, salons to ebay stores - and every type of business in between, RewardScan has begun to pop up around the globe - anywhere there is a business with Internet access.

And while many of RewardScan's users aren't as large as TeenFreeway.com, the success and praise is just as fervent.

Best In Show, one of the coolest pet stores in San Francisco, embraced RewardScan early on and hasn't looked back. "RewardScan made our life so easy!" say owner Richard Shiu. "Our customers love the fact that they don't have to carry any cards. We love the fact that RewardScan keeps track of everything. And now it has so much more functionality. I can hardly wait to use them all."

RewardScan's simple, yet powerful solution allows any business or organization to create and manage unlimited loyalty and gift card campaigns including 4 different types of loyalty programs like Points, Buy X - Get One Free, Number of Visits, and a hybrid between gift card and loyalty program: Dollars Earned per Visit. Users can mix and match as many campaigns as they like, and pricing is based on the number of customers tracked so its affordable for everyone.

The founders of RewardScan.com aren't too surprised. "It's funny how obvious this seemed," says Anthony Angell, co-founder of this innovative Software as a Service. "As business development and marketing guys we saw a void in the area of gift card and customer loyalty management across nearly every discipline we work with. Businesses of every size were yearning for something like RewardScan - it just didn't exist. So we created it and it took off."

And take off, it did. Computer screens around the globe - and yes, even web-enabled devices like the iPhone, are loyally logging into RewardScan to help them attract and retain clients, both new and old. What started as a need for a single small client, has turned into a money making machine for businesses of all sizes around the world.

Joe Gagliotti, owner of the flagship Joseph Anthony Salon and Retreat Spa in the Philadelphia area says, "RewardScan is an unbelievable loyalty program!" His salon uses it to track gift cards and 2 hugely successful loyalty programs.

And while salons and spas were early adopters or RewardScan, it quickly showed up in electrical supply stores, pet and feed stores, yoga studios, coffee shops and even work at home moms were signing up at an amazing pace for their online businesses.

RewardScan Co-Founder Tiago Soromenho gets excited by the many creative ways that people are using RewardScan. "People are really creative! We even have a customer who is using a Points Program for their kid's allowance," Tiago laughed, clearly delighted by the lateral thinking exhibited by their clients. "I love that it's almost taking a life of its own."

"There is such a need, out there in the small business community, for this kind of flexible, accessible, easy to use, and affordable loyalty and gift card program," Tiago Soromenho adds more seriously. "So we decided on a price-point that any small business can afford - we call it Pay As You Grow." And indeed, free to start, plans start at just $9.95/month once an account has more than 10 customers.

So convinced in the power of this solution, Tiago and Anthony have made great efforts in eradicating any barriers to entry: there's no obligation when signing up for a RewardScan account, and no credit card is needed.

RewardScan's growth has been truly organic, fueled by enthusiastic clients and of course, just plain word of mouth. RewardScan's fresh approach to technology has not only small business owners but other web 2.0 friends talking. With its API, RewardScan is capable of working with other online business services, like invoicing and billing programs, that lets businesses create their custom, automated business processes in a way that has begun to revolutionize the enterprise software industry.

"RewardScan is perfect for any business that recognizes the importance of attracting and keeping loyal clients and customers. Everyone uses it, including salons and spas, yoga studios, ice-cream parlors, night clubs, java shacks, and even dog groomers!" concludes Anthony Angell. "Basically, if you have clients, and want to boost loyalty and sales, RewardScan can work for you."
