Problem
Consumers in the 21+ market, particularly cannabis shoppers, often receive limited incentives for everyday purchases and have few convenient ways to earn rewards for routine activities like store visits, receipt uploads, or app engagement.
Solution
HighRewards offers a mobile marketplace that turns everyday consumer actions into points that can be redeemed for cash-equivalent gift cards. Users earn points by checking into partner stores, purchasing products, uploading receipts, completing surveys, playing games, and watching videos—all within a single app that operates 24/7. Points accumulate in a personal “stash” and can be exchanged for popular gift cards such as Amazon, Walmart, and Nike. The platform also incentivizes user growth through referral bonuses, encouraging a network effect among 21+ consumers.
Target Audience
Primary users are adults aged 21 + who shop at participating retailers, especially cannabis dispensaries, and seek a simple way to earn cash‑equivalent rewards from everyday purchases. Secondary customers are brands and retailers in the 21 + economy looking to acquire and retain customers through a pay‑for‑performance rewards marketplace.
