Spriza Contest Exceeds Expectations


EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA--(Marketwired - Feb. 5, 2015) - Spriza, Inc. ("Spriza") (the "Company") (OTCQB:SPRZ) (www.spriza.com), the world's leading social network for group prizes and incentives, is pleased to announce results of a contest it initiated in January of 2015. Spriza administered a 30 day contest for a client that operates one of the world's top online game applications. Traffic generated during the first 24 hours of the SPRIZA™ enabled contest was unprecendented and exceeded the client's overall objectives for the campaign.

In the first hour of the contest, Spriza experienced 1500 new subscribers signing up on its website. After six hours the Company had over 10,000 new subscribers signed up and within 24 hours, over 22,000 new subscribers had signed up on the Spriza website. The traffic resulted in 140,000 unique visitors to Spriza.com which was shared through Facebook more than 36,000 times. A total of 4,500 SMS text messages were generated to download the client's mobile app. Over the first 24 hour period, requests to the Spriza website exceeded 3 million visitors. The day ended with a conversion rate of 16% of the total visitors viewing Spriza's website and converting into new subscribers for Spriza.

The success of the contest on Spriza's platform was underestimated by both Spriza and the client, resulting in a heavy site load surge which had the Company managing site loads to handle the unexpected capacity. The Company's servers have been quadrupled to handle demand going forward for future contests.

"Not only did we exceed the client's expectations for traffic through our SPRIZA™ contest platform, the huge response proved the strength and viability of the platform," said Jay Cowles, Spriza's COO. "Considering that a typical conversion rate of similar digital initatives is 2-5%*, Spriza's 16% conversion rate during this contest provided a strong ROI to our client, something that potential brands and advertisers will be interested in. This contest was a fantastic affirmation of Spriza's business model and with the information we have acquired though this process, will allow us to create even better returns for our clients."

With the immiment release of our Spriza Mobile Application, Spriza is continuing its focus on improved usablity for clients and consumers. Spriza has also begun working with clients to expand it's reach into the areas of live events, charitable initatives, live music and sporting events.
