At the heart of Barclaycard Freedom is the Reward Money pot.
And like everything else in the programme, it's really simple.
When a customer makes a purchase with you using their Barclaycard, you contribute a percentage, and this contribution goes into the Reward Money pot.
Then, when a customer uses their Barclaycard, up to 4% is taken from the Reward Money pot and given directly to the customers as Reward Money, which they can use whenever they like at selected participating retailers.
Every customer earns a percentage when they make a purchase with you.
But, from time to time, we will run special promotions designed to deliver even more value to your customers.
During these initiatives, customers could earn as much as 4% in Reward Money with no additional contribution needed from you.
These initiatives will include Double Rewards weekends at key shopping periods throughout the year, when all customers can earn double Reward Money every time they use their Barclaycard at participating Barclaycard Freedom retailers.
But throughout all these special promotions, your contribution stays exactly the same.
Barclaycard may also from time to time run targeted offers to customers to give them even more value but your contribution will not change. It's great deals like these that will keep enthusiasm at a maximum - helping your customers get more value out of Barclaycard Freedom and see more value in shopping with you.
Barclaycard Freedom is rewards made simple.
