Shopkick Launches into 2017 from Highest Point in Company History

Partner Momentum Spurs Growth Heading into New Year

REDWOOD CITY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Shopkick,
the leading shopping rewards app that engages people with brands and
drives in-store action, today announces record-breaking highs on
its most essential company metrics in 2016:

Company Revenue on the Rise:

• Q4 was the highest revenue quarter in the company’s history
• Partners fueled growth, with 57 percent higher Brand revenue in 2016
  over 2015

Reaping Rewards, Regardless of Product Category:

• Engagement out of store and in the aisle: 71 percent more brands in
  the shopkick app during Q416 compared to Q415
• Holiday season booms: Brand revenue nearly doubled from Q3 to Q4 in
  2016 (92 percent)
• Video drives conversion: Branded video engagement drove measurable
  increase in basket size
• Kicks galore: Users earned a record high of 6.3 billion kicks in 2016
• Consumers earn rewards: More than 700,000 people received over $15
  million in gift cards

“When people think of end of year marketing campaigns, the door-busting
drama around big ticket items generally dominate, but what really stood
out for us was the ability to not only increase awareness of one of our
more unique items, Pronto Pasta, but also increase our sales during a
time when shoppers are not typically thinking about pasta,” said Debbie
Zefting, Director of Shopper Strategy and Engagement at Barilla. “To
have such a rich, experiential connection to customers before they even
enter a store is powerful; add a rewards structure that encourages
physical brand engagement and you see the kind of lift we
experienced: significant sales growth in some of our top retail
customers.”

The Barilla example typifies the power of shopkick’s momentum: holiday
engagement in the app created a significant lift for a brand not
typically associated with a seasonal boost. The network effect created
by the rich ecosystem of brands and retailers not only got people
engaged with a new SKU from a favorite brand, but also drove purchase.

“I joined shopkick this past summer because I saw the incredible promise
of this platform for both consumer brands and retail organizations,”
said Bill Demas, shopkick CEO. “After an intense sprint of product
optimizations, we launched into holiday with the best offering we’ve
ever had in market and the results show. This coming year should bring
unprecedented growth to the shopkick ecosystem.”
