New Joshua Spies Art on Cabela’s Giftcards

Cabela’s Giftcard

Watertown, SD (PRWEB) November 29, 2011

Artwork by international award-winning wildlife artist, Joshua Spies, will be featured on a Cabela’s giftcard. “When we saw Joshua’s painting of the mule deer, we immediately thought it would make a great image for a gift card,” said Colleen Dorwart, Loyalty Projects Manager for Cabela’s. “What struck me was the detail. It looked like a photograph.”

How did Cabela’s decide to feature Spies’ artwork? In researching Spies, they learned he was the epitome of a Cabela’s customer. He is an outdoorsman, a conservationist, a hunter.

Between the research on Spies himself, the quality of his work and the fact that their customers relate especially well to gift cards depicting deer, Cabela’s knew this would be a mutually beneficial partnership.

“We were thrilled to work with Joshua on this project,” Dorwart said. “His work is just amazing.”
The giftcards with Spies’ painting, “Mule Deer,” have been distributed to all Cabela’s retail locations nationally and can also be purchased through their catalog and on the Cabela’s website. There is also an electronic gift card (eGiftCard) version available on their website. Cabela’s sells thousands of gift cards every year.

“I’m ecstatic to be partnered with such a prominent company,” Spies aforementioned. “Cabela’s has such a rich history and I’m proud to now be a part of it.”

The images for Cabela’s gift cards are chosen in several different ways, depending on the season and finding an image that works, Dorwart said. Cabela’s has used photographs, other artists’ work and have even commissioned artwork specifically for their gift cards, Dorwart said.

“Joshua’s “Mule Deer” image really did exceed our expectations,” Dorwart said. “It truly is a work of art.”

Question by jaime m: If u apply for credit card but dont activate it. are you still liably for any yearly bills?
I applied for credit card and they are sending it. But I heard it was a horrible bank to go through with bad customer service and holding payments so they will be late and charge late fees. I don’t really want this headache so was wondering if by not activating it will make me not obligated to the agreement.

Answer by Ryan M
No it does not. Why not just act like a responsible adult and CANCEL the card??

New Revenue Stream for Digital Content Released for Press and Media Industry

boxPAY Co-Founders Gavin and Iain McConnon

Dublin, Ireland (PRWEB) November 08, 2011

boxPAY Ltd., a provider of SMS-based mobile billing services to web merchants, is opening up their global billing platform to press and media as a new way to charge readers for digital content. By implementing the boxPAY payment system on a website, a company can charge readers for specific content that a customer is interested in purchasing, as opposed to requiring a full subscription. The customer pays a small amount and this charge is applied to their mobile phone bill, or deducted from their pre-paid balance. The boxPAY billing service is now available in over 35 countries worldwide.

“A challenge news and media outlets often face is figuring out how to make money from their content outside of subscription services and advertising. Readers often encounter payment walls that restrict further access to a story or content, and require readers to commit to a lengthy subscription. This interrupts the user experience and can result in lost readership and revenue” says Co-Founder Gavin McConnon.

boxPAY works by providing a company with billing code that produces a simple payment box on their website. When a reader wishes to gain one-time access to premium content, the payment box prompts them to send a text message to complete the purchase. The transaction is complete in seconds, and content is available immediately. No lengthy forms or additional payment screens are necessary.

Iain McConnon, boxPAY’s Co-Founder, expanded “We have created a solution for media companies to charge one time, small amounts for a story, e-book, or other content. This creates a new revenue stream for press and media companies, enabling them to monetize customers who do not have access to credit cards. Companies using boxPAY will see a large increase in the number of transactions completed versus using traditional billing methods.”

Any web merchant can register at no cost to use this service on boxPAY.com

About boxPAY, Ltd.

boxPAY is a mobile technology firm created by Gavin and Iain McConnon. The boxPAY platform offers web merchants, game developers, and other e-businesses a way to charge customers for digital content through mobile phones. boxPAY headquarters are located in Dublin, Ireland, and the company has offices in Sydney, Johannesburg, and San Francisco.

Question by flori0009: What is the best credit card to apply for for the first time?
I have years of excellent on-time rental history, however I have no credit because I’ve never been in debt (always pay bills on clock) go figure. I was wondering which credit cards I could apply for, for the first time. Wal-Mart Credit teased rejected me because I have no credit, and I’m just looking for something small so I tin put things on the card and pay them away quickly to establish some sort of credit. Any suggestions?

Best answer:

Answer by auntcookie84
Capital One is a pretty easy card to get. You may also want to try the PayPal credit card…that I was pretty easy to obtain as well. Both cards will start you out at a $ 500 restrict and will raise it as you establish your good credit standing with them.

Debt Management Professionals Announces New Website and the Explanation of Available Debt Relief Programs

(PRWEB) October 29, 2011

DebtManagementProfessionals.net, which is an online debt management referral agency, provides it’s applicants with detailed information regarding available debt programs. Debt Management Professionals is pleased to announce a new website aimed at helping consumers choose the correct possible debt management plan when considering cost-effective ways at resolving credit card debt.

“The mission of our company is to provide detailed knowledge on how these debt programs differ from one another – in addition to a financial success kit which aims at re-educating consumers on how to manage their finances,” says Brandon David of DebtManagementProfessionals.net (http://www.debtmanagementprofessionals.net). “It’s becoming more and more frequent for consumers to enroll into programs by being misled, assuming they’ve enrolled into consolidation when in fact they’ve enrolled into something like debt settlement”.

The debt management program works by negotiating new terms with the creditors, which in turn reduces interest rates, finance charges and of course high minimum payments. Of the vast range of debt programs available to consumers, debt management (also known as credit counseling) is the only program that is not factored into the consumers credit score according to FICO ©. Once the consumer moves forward with a debt management plan, that consumer will only need to worry about making one lump payment each month. When making these lower minimum payments while keeping the interest rates low, the consumer will often find that a vast majority of the new minimum payment will be applied towards the actual principal balance. Unlike programs like debt settlement, debt management will keep the consumer current with the debt owed which in turn keeps their credit in good standing.

About DebtManagementProfessionals.net:
DebtManagementProfessionals.net provides consumers with a fiscal success kit, along with detailed education on how these programs vary from one another. With the Recent release of our unexampled website to the public, it’s our mission to target confused consumers and better socialize them on the differences between mutual debt programs. These programs if taken right can salvage consumers thousands of dollars and years of time.
