Protect Your Offer from Discount Abuse

SheerID uses more than 200K authoritative sources to digitally verify that everyone who redeems your first responder offer is eligible for it, which protects your margins and increases your returns.

It also shows first responders that your offer is truly just for them, which makes it more appealing and motivates them to promote it.

Activate Word of Mouth and Reduce CAC

Research shows that nearly every first responder would share your offer with others in their group, which amplifies your campaigns and lowers your acquisition costs.

You can also create “Black Friday-like” spikes year-round by running campaigns during holidays that celebrate first responders, such as National Police Week, National EMS Week, and International Firefighters’ Day.

How Top Brands are Using SheerID

 

Rothy’s Devoted Fans Drive Revenue

When the pandemic hit, Rothy’s asked its customers how it could best respond.

They said Rothy’s should offer its teacher discount to first responders and medical workers, so the company did.

Listening to its loyal customers paid off. Adding these groups to Rothy’s program grew its revenue by 60%.

“Using SheerID to digitally verify every shopper helped us acquire new customers, increase loyalty, and ensure the program was profitable.”

SVP of Growth

Tuft & Needle Leverages Cause Marketing

Tuft & Needle believes real heroes deserve real savings, so it gives a 15% discount to first responders, healthcare workers, and active military and veterans.

These programs support Tuft & Needle’s local communities and have helped the mattress company stand out in its highly competitive space.

“Honoring first responders is a mission-driven approach that helps us rise above the noise.”

CheapCaribbean Reduces Fraud

CheapCaribbean used SheerID to launch its personalized offer to nurses, and the company reduced discount abuse by 36% and acquired 8,000 customers.

When the company saw the program’s results and knew the offer was secure, it created an exclusive travel club for first responders that was just as successful.

“SheerID greatly simplified our verification process and ensured only nurses could redeem the offer, which increased its value in their eyes.”
