Exclusive Deal Struck with Edinboro University

Custom CreditCovers Feature School Colors and Logo

 

Earlier this month, Edinboro University of Pennsylvania became the first major purchaser of custom CreditCovers, flashy skins that, when slapped on bank cards, add personal flare and a lot to talk about.

 

The university ordered more than 1,000 CreditCovers, which will be sold at campus bookstores. The deal comes at a time when CreditCovers inventor and CEO, Anthony David Adams, has been discussing the marketing and branding potential of CreditCovers with several large companies and ad agencies.

 

What CreditCovers do, essentially, is turn credit and debit cards into mini-billboards,” says Adams, who co-founded the company in January. Until now, CreditCovers have been primarily sold as a fashion accessory in retail outlets and online through the company’s website. “They allow companies to create armies of brand evangelists.”

 

Every time a user makes a purchase – at a cool club, at dinner with friends or a hip coffee shop, they flash a message, imprinting a brand and starting conversations about it several times a day. This allows organizations to rapidly deploy their message in any market and have that message spread with real customers rather than hired reps.

 

Those are the people I want flashing my clients’ message to other people several times a day,” says the representative of an ad agency currently in talks with CreditCovers. “If I’m producing the next Spider-Man movie, I want Spider-Man on every single credit card. It’s cheap, and a no-brainer.”

 

Incidentally, Adams graduated from Edinboro in 2003 with a Bachelor’s in Psychology. He is donating 30 percent of the proceeds from the deal back to his alum.

Consummate Your Tryst with Summer by
Getting Uncovered for Charity

Do you privately like dancing in your underwear? Bring your one-person boogie to the High Noon Saloon on Thursday Aug. 23, for the summer’s only lingerie and pajama party!

With DJs NeeHigh, Ryan Simatic and Tinhead working the tables and Foxy Veronica’s Peach Pies ramping up the heat, Thursday is set to be the sultriest night this August.

But don’t just arrive in your underwear. Do your community some good by disrobing at the door, then donating your clothes to Madison ’s St. Vincent de Paul store. Doing so will also save you $3 on the $10 door charge. That’s almost enough for one of the many vodka drinks on special courtesy of EFFEN Vodka.

The disrobing commences at 9 p.m.

Throughout the night we’ll be giving away fabulous prizes provided by Capital City Tattoo, A Woman’s Touch, TheCDP.net, Sukara Sterling, the Monkey Bar Gymnasium, Gallant Knight Limos, the City of Madison, the Old Fashioned, Boulder’s Rock Climbing Gym, the Mad Rollin’ Dolls, PassionsByColleen.com, Dane101.com and CreditCovers, LLC.

The practice parties are behind us. Time has come for the real thing. We would like to say it’ll be night that you’ll never forget, but we can’t control how much

EFFEN Vodka you drink. What we can say is that, when the alarm goes off Friday morning, you won’t regret having whooped it up at Thursday’s Lingerie and Pajama Party, presented by CreditCovers, LLC and Dane101.com.
