MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Ryder
System, Inc. (NYSE:R), a leader in commercial
fleet management and supply
chain solutions, today announced its new commercial rental customer
loyalty program, Ryder
RedZone. The customer reward program provides Ryder rental customers
with a convenient way to earn points and rewards for each rental dollar
they spend.
To participate, customers can simply sign up at RyderRedZone.com
and continue to rent regularly to earn points. Participants can choose
to redeem points from a selection of thousands of lifestyle, sports, and
Ryder branded merchandise options such as hotel stays, consumer
electronics, and home and garden supplies. Once ready to redeem points,
Ryder RedZone members are able to review redemption points online, make
selections, and have items shipped to them directly. Also, those who
enroll and participate in monthly opinion polls will have 50 points per
poll added to their account. The customer feedback achieved through
these surveys helps Ryder improve its products, services, and value
provided to its customers.
Each month, Ryder RedZone members earn ten percent of their
organization’s net rental spend in points. Hassle-free electronic
statements make it easy for members to track their points, without
having to deal with an annual membership card. Ryder RedZone is
currently available to U.S. customers, and is set to launch in Canada in
early 2015, offering the industry’s only rewards program to all Ryder
rental customers in North America. Since Ryder RedZone was initially
launched, over 9,000 rental customers have enrolled.
“Ryder RedZone is a value added program for rental customers that
delivers a great outlet for members to order products for our
employees,” said Cary Simon, Executive Vice President of SNS Logistics
and Ryder RedZone member. “We pride ourselves on our commitment to
customer service so we appreciate that Ryder does the same with its
innovative Ryder RedZone customer loyalty program.”
