Snagtag Marks the Spot - Snagtag allows you tag anything you see or hear and push that content to your Snagtag inbox for immediate or future access. HOW IT WORKS: See it. Snag it. View it. Any time you see an “Snagtag”, a word or phrase preceded by an asterisk (e.g. *BeHappy, *PlayLikeAChampion, *LoveIsAllYouNeed ) enter it into the Snagtag app and have the content associated with that Snagtag placed into your Snagtag inbox for immediate or future access. EXAMPLES: - “Snagtag” a radio or TV commercial or program and get a great offer or interesting content: • You hear on the radio “Snagtag ‘KENZ’ to download today’s program” • “Snagtag ‘TodaysDeals’ to get 50% off while supplies last” - “Snagtag” a real estate sign or any “For Sale” sign and get more information regarding the item for sale: • You drive by a car that displays “*BuyMyCar”. You enter the Snagtag and get information about that specific car. • You drive by a beautiful home that displays “*Prudential302”. You enter the Snagtag and get information about that specific house. - “Snagtag” a sign in a store and get current offers for that store: • As you enter the Polo clothing store and you see a sign that reads “*PoloToday”. You enter this Snagtag and get special in store deals for that day. - “Snagtag” a person who displays their Snagtag on a shirt, a hat, a name tag or even in a tattoo, and find out what that person wants you to know about them: • You walk by an interesting looking person who has written on their shirt “*LovingLife”. You enter the Snagtag and see their favorite photos, or quotes, or videos, or a webpage with links to all of these. THERE’S MORE?: Once you’ve tagged something and put it into your inbox, the owner of that Snagtag can send you additional content related to the item you tagged in the form of a “Follow-up”. - Example - You Snagtag “*BestDealsEver” to get 25% off of an item. Hours or days later you receive a follow-up for a “Two for one” coupon. To access “Follow-up” click on the follow-up icon (colored oval with a # in it) to see related content. If you don’t want follow-up offers, don’t click on the follow-up icon or you can turn off or delete the inbox item and never receive additional information from the Snagtag owner again. CREATE YOUR OWN Snagtag: Create your own Snagtag in the mobile app. It is simple, takes 1 minute, and your Snagtags are free.
