Win Kid Carson’s Cash with Zoompass!

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

In March Zoompass was a hot topic on the Kid Carson Morning Show, on The Beat 94.5 FM in Vancouver.  Kid Carson was Zooming money away live on the air!  To participate listeners had to register for Zoompass and send Kid Carson a money request for $50.  A total of twenty-one $50 money requests from listeners were “accepted” and one grand prize of $1000 was also given away.   Kid Carson received overwhelming response from listeners: “Hey!  I TOTALLY just won Kid’s Cash this morning!  It made my morning and I just wanted to say thanks!!”  Well, you’re TOTALLY welcome Keery – it was our pleasure!  Now get Zooming!

Shaheen of Delta B.C. was the lucky winner of the $1000 grand prize: “I didn’t believe it till I heard my voicemail on the radio and was like OH MY GOD!” says Shaheen.  “I was just aiming for the $50 but I’ll take the $1000!”  Imagine if she had aimed a little higher or answered the phone.

 Watch out for Zoompass in your area!

$5000 Richer for Parking Your Car?!?!

Friday, March 12th, 2010

When Michael Perry of Vancouver followed his wife’s lead and got Zooming last month, little did he know it would make him $5000 richer.

 Well… today it did!

 ”OMG, what a great day this has turned out to be,” Michael said when he was made aware that he was the Grand Prize winner of the Zoom to Win $5000 Contest.

 Initially, Michael was primarily using Zoompass as a convenient way to pay parking meters with his Zoompass Prepaid MasterCard in Vancouver.  However, he now tells us he has removed all other credit cards from his wallet and uses Zoompass whenever and wherever he can.

 ”It is very convenient to use Zoompass on my iPhone to check my account balance on the go and to reload my account when necessary,” Michael added. “I would like to thank Zoompass for this wonderful prize and for the wonderful product they have brought to the Canadian Market.”

 Michael, you are welcome! Keep Zooming!

 Watch for details about the next Zoompass contest scheduled to launch in early April.

ZoomMe10!

If someone Zoomed you $10, what would you do with it?

We’ll be asking this question a lot over the next few weeks; at least once every weekday, in fact, on Twitter (@zoompass), on FriendFeed (@zoompass) on Facebook. Look for the hashtag #ZoomMe10!

Why?

Because Zoompass is all about making your life that little bit easier. Because we want to hear your ideas on how you might use Zoompass. Oh, and because it’s fun.

  • What would you do if we Zoomed you $10?Would you use your Zoompass Prepaid MasterCard to buy lunch for the homeless guy you see every day?
  • Would you finally repay that friend who won’t stop bugging you about that lunch he spotted you?
  • Would you buy your partner chocolates, just because you thought of them?
  • Would you donate it to a worthy cause?

Tell us, because every day we’ll pick our favourite idea and Zoom that contest winner $10. All we ask in return is that you upload a photo, post a tweet, record a video, write a post or find another way to show us how you’ve used that money.

If you need some ideas on how you could use Zoompass, check out getzoompass.com – Steve and Chuck have plenty of suggestions to give you over there.

So get thinking – if someone Zoomed you $10, how would you make your little corner of the world a little brighter?
