Bower: Recycle & get rewarded 2.1.27

Bower is an innovative application that allows users to recycle all packaging with barcodes, earning cash-back rewards while contributing to environmental sustainability.

The primary function of the app is to scan barcodes on packaging, rewarding users for their efforts. Additionally, it provides a detailed breakdown of the carbon dioxide emissions saved through recycling and its positive impact on the climate.

Bower envisions a future where all packaging holds value, promoting responsible disposal practices and reducing waste in landfills and natural habitats.

How to Recycle with Bower:

1. Scan and organize your packaging items at home.
2. Locate the nearest recycling station or add a new one through the app.
3. Visit the designated recycling station, open your Bower-recycle bag, and choose "recycle packaging".
4. Dispose of all packaging in the appropriate containers. Well done!

Where Can You Recycle?

You can recycle at any public recycling station. If a station is missing from the app, you can add it yourself and receive rewards. Moreover, personal recycling stations like multi-compartment containers and home optibags can also be registered for rewards.

Benefits of Recycling with Bower:

1. Cashback: Users can currently redeem money vouchers monthly, transfer funds to their bank account, or donate to various charitable organizations focused on human development, animal welfare, and environmental conservation.
2. Coupons: Earn Bower-points that can be exchanged for exclusive coupons usable both in physical stores and online. Coupons remain valid for several months, providing ample time for utilization but are not combinable with other promotions.
3. Environmental Impact: Gain insights into your carbon footprint reduction and the tangible benefits it brings to the environment.

Eligible Products for Recycling:

Bower accepts all barcode-labelled products for recycling through the app.

Sponsorship of Cash-Back Rewards:

The app collaborates with over 130 brands such as Dove, Capri-Sun, and Hellmann's to offer deposits on all recyclable packaging items.

Explanation on Daily Scan Limits:

To ensure fair point distribution, only one package of the same item scanned per day will be rewarded. This measure prevents duplicate scanning of identical barcodes. However, the environmental impact of all scanned packages is cumulatively tracked regardless of points awarded.

Note on GPS Functionality:

Bower relies on GPS for locating nearby recycling stations and initiating the scanner used for depositing packages. In cases where GPS malfunctions occur, updating the device's operating system to the latest version may resolve the issue. Some devices may still encounter performance challenges without definitive remedies.
