PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwire - Jul 24, 2012) - TIBCO Software Inc. (NASDAQ: TIBX) today announced a collaboration with global footwear and accessories leader Nine West and Plenty NYC, an award-winning digital creative agency, to develop the Nine Loves Rewards campaign on Facebook. 

This campaign leverages technology from TIBCO Loyalty Lab® and Plenty's integrated app to allow program members who "like" the Nine West Facebook page to earn bonus points toward a Rewards Pass to spend on Nine West shoes.
