Start Planning your hCard Summer!


Let The hCard be your partner this summer vacation season. April is only a few days away and pretty soon the kids will be out of school—have you planned your summer vacation yet? If not, consider using your hCard membership to save 40% at Six Flags theme parks all over the U.S, on plane tickets on Southwest Airlines, on Thrifty Car Rental and at Best Western Motels.

Your first step is to log into your hCard back office and click on “National Promotions” to access the promotion code needed to activate your www.TicketsAtWork.com account. TicketsatWork.com, an hCard partner, helps give you all of these incredible discounts at not only Six Flags, but the Walt Disney World® Resort, Universal Studios®, SeaWorld, Cirque du Soleil, Las Vegas and New York City performances, movie tickets and much more!

Six Flags has theme parks located in California, Texas, St. Louis, Missouri, Atlanta, Chicago, Washington, D.C./Baltimore, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Upstate New York, Quebec and Mexico. When you’re traveling this summer visiting family, a stop at Six Flags with its scary, world-class roller coasters and multiple water rides will be such a wonderful memory to share. You don’t want to miss all of the new 2012 rides such as the Superman Ultimate Flight, the Mr. Freeze Reverse Blast, Alpine Freefalls and the Skyscreamer. With The hCard discount you can definitely come back a second day to try out all of the rides you didn’t get a chance to experience the first day!

And one of best things about being an hCard member is also having access to discounted Southwest Airlines tickets, Thrifty Car Rental and Best Western Motels which offers at least a 30% discount on their rooms.

So what are you waiting for? Summer’s going to be here before you know it and now’s the time to get planning and start saving some money with your hCard! See you at Six Flags!

Go That Extra Mile for Your Best Friend with The hCard!

What could be more important than the safety and well-being of our pets? Fluffy and Rascal give us so much: companionship, improved fitness (according to Dr. Oz in the most recent issue of Oprah Magazine!) and unconditional love. We owe it to them to provide help if they get lost or hurt. Now with The hCard’s Emergency Pet Program, you can obtain peace of mind knowing that their ID tags contain enough information for someone to quickly contact you.

This is how The hCard’s Emergency Pet Program works:

For only $10 a year (or $34 a year when you sign up the family and the pets) you place your contact information and two other emergency contacts in your secure online profile. You then will receive a tag that you can place around your pet’s neck. The tag says, “Emergency Contacts” in yellow and red along with your phone number. If your pet is ever lost, the person who finds your pet calls the emergency contact number. A customer service person will contact one of your three contacts and up to two of their phone numbers. That is a lot of value for so little money!

On a normal pet ID tag, there’s only room for one name and one contact number—now you can be contacted if you’re at work or in transit. With this handy hCard option, you can also include up to four pets. If you choose the $34 Family/Pet option, one of your emergency contacts will be notified in the event that you’re the one in an emergency situation and your pet needs to be taken care of by another family member or friend.

All you need to do now is enter the number on the back of your hCard to receive this discounted price on Emergency Pet Protection.

Just like our pets that give back so much to us, The hCard gives back to you and your pets, as well as to the school and non-profit community.

Save Money and Give Back with National Automotive Discounts from The hCard


We are all trying to make our vehicles more gas-efficient, especially with the escalating prices at the pump. Maybe we can’t control the rising cost of fuel, but we can control how we can make our cars more efficient through regular maintenance—and this is where purchasing The hCard can help!

Purchasing The hCard today can save you 10% on automotive discounts NATIONWIDE!  Participating automotive merchants include AAMCO, Precision Tune, Jiffy Lube, Meineke, and Maaco. Support these community-minded businesses in your hometown and when you travel across the United States, be sure to keep your hCard in your wallet!

Just think: you can save on regular maintenance for your car AND give back with the hCard which supports non-profits and schools across America with fundraising opportunity. By doing so you’ll be saving lots of dollars and headaches down the road (pun intended).

Here are several maintenance suggestions where you can put your new hCard to use:

 

  • Be sure to change your oil every 5,000 to 7,000 miles unless you drive more frequently, then you should change your oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.

 

  • Keep your tires properly inflated and check to make sure you don’t have any nails or other sharp objects imbedded in your treads. Everything depends on your four wheels! Having good tires with strong treads increases your fuel efficiency.

 

  • Don’t cover up your “Check Engine” light with a piece of duct tape and hope for the best. Get yourself and your vehicle over to one of the above mentioned automotive professionals who support The hCard and find out what’s causing that light to stay on.

 

  • Change your air filters on a regular basis—this is another gas-saving item. It’s a good idea to look at your air filter every time you change your oil and filter.

We all have busy lives, and folks behind The hCard understand this. With a single purchase of The hCard, you can access automotive discounts from California to North Carolina and everywhere in between to keep your car regularly maintained and avoid costly repairs that take time away from your family and work. So stop waiting for gas prices to go down—get your hCard today and take action on your gas savings! Just switch on the savings!
