    MyBeanJar.com - Rewarding Players In A New Way

    MyBeanJar is a company that aims to create a new rewards system for video games. The concept that lies at the heart of it all is that players receive prizes in real life for their in-game accomplishments.

    These achievements obviously differ from game to game, but milestones like beating a certain score or reaching a certain stage are commonplace.



    Accomplishments result in the player accumulating beans, and when a certain amount has been assimilated then the player can claim his prize. These prizes are actually based on the player’s preferences. And it is important to mention that the mobile redemption of rewards is taken into account via the web links which are provided.

    So far, there is only one game that you can play, and a couple of brands are already in for the ride. The eventual objective of the site is to have companies sponsor games actively (and place their products in front of gamers), while game publishers would clearly benefit from sponsorships. After all, it is a different revenue stream, and certainly one less intrusive than populating a game with a never-ending succession of ads.

    Mybeanjar.com In their own words

    “MyBeanJar is a new rewards network, delivering real-world values to players for game achievements. "Beans," which represent full coupon offers, gather in a player's BeanJar account, until redeemed at the sponsor's online or brick & mortar outlet. Beans also offer web-links and store-locators, allowing simple mobile redemption of rewards.”

    Why Mybeanjar.com might be a killer
