Twitter is a real-time information network that connects you to the latest stories, ideas, opinions and news about what you find interesting. Simply find the accounts you find most compelling and follow the conversations. At the heart of Twitter are small bursts of information called Tweets. Each Tweet is 140 characters long, but don`t let the small size fool you—you can discover a lot in a little space. You can see photos, videos and conversations directly in Tweets to get the whole story at a glance, and all in one place.

Raise is a C2C marketplace for buying and selling gift cards online. Launched in February of 2013, the platform allows sellers to earn cash for their unwanted gift cards and gives buyers the opportunity to save at thousands of their favorite brands. The Raise app for iOS and Android is an extension of our real-time marketplace that enables you to make your money worth more, on the go. In the $400 billion prepaid retail market, more than 20% of gift cards and store credit go unused each year. Raise offers a way to reclaim this value and puts purchase power back into the hands of consumers. Raise gives consumers freedom and control over how they spend and save their money. While saving money is often associated with discounts, we are setting out to redefine the conversation. Every time a member interacts with our marketplace, we want them to feel as though they just gave themselves a raise.
