Bonnaroo and Facecard Partner to Help Charities

This recent post on CreditCards.com notes how Facecard Prepaid MasterCard has teamed up with Bonnaroo, which is a annual four day music and arts festival, to raise money for various charities.

Facecard agreed to donate up to $10,000 for everyone who sings up for a Facecard from the Bonnaroo community. There will be a Facecard booth set up at Bonnaroo where people can learn more about this program and giveaways. In addition to this, the first 10,000 people who sign up for the Facecard will get $5 added to their cards so that they can purchase Bonnaroo merchandise both at the event and online.

Social Networking and Gift Cards

According to this latest article on Nashville Business Journal, Ed Braswell, President of edo Interactive is incorporating social networking and texting in the launch of Facecard, a new prepaid gift card brand.

Just like the popular social networking site Myspace, users will be able to create online profiles where friends and relatives can also sign in and add money to their cards on birthdays and other special occasions. Retailers will also be able to send targeted text messages to this young niche market offering to add money to their cards if they redeem certain rewards in a specified time frame.

Gift card purchases amongst young adults are expected to grow drastically over the next couple of years.
