Snipp Interactive Announces $530K Worth of Deals Done in One Day; New Daily Record in Record-Breaking Week

BETHESDA, MARYLAND--(Marketwired - Aug. 13, 2015) - Snipp Interactive Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SPN) ("Snipp"), an international provider of marketing promotions, loyalty and reward solutions listed on the TSX Venture Exchange, is pleased to announce that Tuesday, August 11, 2015 was a record breaking day for the company. The company managed to close on $530,000 worth of deals, its largest single day closing amount ever. The deals were across six promotions and for four different clients.

According to Snipp CEO Atul Sabharwal, "The largest single day haul wasn't the only record we managed to break; we also managed to rake in our largest seven-day closing amount as well. We closed over $1 million in high-margin deals over the course of a single week - and even more if you look across a 10-day period. I am very pleased and proud of our sales efforts and the strength of the underlying product suite and the services we provide our customers."

While the figures mentioned above reflect the total revenues booked, please note that the projects are spread across multiple time periods and the associated revenues will be recognized as per Snipp's revenue recognition policies and not altogether in any one quarter.

Added David Hargreaves, Snipp's Chief Client Officer, "This week's success reflects a growing trend in our deals as we shift from single campaigns to bigger programs with recurring revenues, larger average deal sizes and significantly higher margins. Almost all these deals are using receipt validation as a key component in loyalty programs. Receipt processing has already proved itself in the short-term promotions space, and we are now seeing more and more brands wanting to integrate receipt processing into longer-term loyalty programs as the way to validate consumer purchases."
