Consumers often get special perks, discounts and other rewards for their membership in certain organizations and clubs.  The AARP notably provides many discounts and perks for its members, but they are hardly alone.  Other organizations such as university alumni associations and professional groups such as the AMA also provide their members with special benefits.  Of course, individual brands, retail stores and credit card companies also offer members of their loyalty programs many bonuses to entice customers.  The issue with consumers having access to so many of these perks is that they forget the advantages they have.  It is not difficult to lose track of all one’s bonuses and potential rewards, which leads to spending money that one would not have to if her or she were more aware of their perks.  Cool person in technology Greg Hammerman created Larky to help people be more aware of the rewards to which they are entitled.  Larky is a mobile application for the iPhone that connects with all of a user’s membership accounts and automatically reminds them when there is an opportunity to use a perk.  Customers who experience connectivity issues getting their memberships to synchronize with Larky may need iPhone repair to restore connectivity.  Read more »
