Travel Tiger Club Update
The Ambassador Bonus Marketing Tasks for Smart Diamond members received a significant revamp in July, as we updated the format and switched the task tracking platform to Gleam.
Over 13,000 entries were received, with 500+ members completing over 5,400 actions.
To receive the Ambassador Bonus, Smart Diamond members were required to complete at least one core task from each week.
We also introduced the chance to earn additional rewards, with points being earned for each completed task. The more points scored, the greater the chance to win prizes and rewards in addition to the Ambassador Bonus.
Smart Diamond members who completed ALL bonus tasks will go into the draw to win one of the following additional rewards:
- 1 x 15-minute call with Juan Otero, CEO of Travala.com
- 3 x mystery merch packs
Smart Diamond members who completed ANY of the bonus tasks will go into the draw to win:
- 5 x $50 in Travel Credits
Winners of the additional rewards will be drawn and announced in the coming weeks, so stay tuned on our socials!
