 For instance, some Banks offer a 1% cash rebate each time a customer uses a platinum credit card issued by the Bank. Other incentive rewards programs may offer a reward in the form of reward currency, such as frequent flyer miles or points, which can be used to purchase other rewards or benefits.
Further, the universe of reward-earning behaviors for such rewards programs is limited. Rewards are typically earned by charging more transactions on a credit card account. Special rewards also may be earned by purchasing from a particular Bank partner (“Partner”). Finally, rewards can be earned by accomplishing certain tasks or exhibiting certain behaviors, such as by opening a bank account. However, prior art reward systems typically cannot differentiate transactions (or other reward-earning behaviors) beyond these limited criteria of dollar amount and merchant.
Thus, prior art rewards programs typically have limited reward-earning behaviors that earn limited rewards. While Banks have successfully encouraged cardmembers to use their credit cards by offering a rewards program associated with the card, Banks typically do not continually provide additional promotional rewards programs targeted to specific customers or groups, wherein rewards are earned through specific triggering behaviors. What is needed is a robust and efficient system of offering a plurality of promotional rewards programs to individual cardmembers or classes of cardmembers, wherein the rewards programs enable customers or customer groups to earn a variety of rewards by accomplishing a variety of behaviors and/or transactions. It is further desirable to have a rewards program system that is customizable across a wide variety of variables. Band saws employ a continuous loop blade that is coupled to a pair of pulleys or band wheels. The band wheels are typically mounted in a common plane to a frame, the mounting spaces apart the band wheels and allows the band wheels to rotate about parallel axes. Typically, one of the band wheels is coupled with a motor assembly which drives the rotation of the band wheel and therefore the blade.
Generally, one of the band wheels is enabled to be moved relative to the position of the other band wheel while maintaining the common plane and parallel axes of rotation. This movement capability allows an operator of a band saw to increase and decrease the distance between the upper and lower band wheels, thereby increasing or decreasing the tension applied to the band saw blade. This is commonly referred to as tensioning the band saw blade.
Proper care of a band saw includes releasing the tension on the continuous loop blade, when not in use, to prevent stretching the blade, deforming the frame and the like. This de-tensioning
