“The launch of our mobile app signifies another milestone in our strategic evolution,” says Salata president Michelle Bythewood in a Salata press release. “With the onset of COVID-19, our industry has had to change and adapt to better serve our guests.

T-Mobile Welcomes Sprint to T-Mobile Tuesdays with Blockbuster Summer Lineup
 
T-Mobile has announced that its T-Mobile Tuesdays, a rewards program built off the Un-carrier’s philosophy on how brands should thank customers, is coming to Sprint. Sprint customers can now roam T-Mobile’s LTE network with access to more than double the number of LTE sites on Sprint’s network alone.
 
“Four years ago, T-Mobile Tuesdays flipped the script on the traditional loyalty program. We believe customers shouldn’t have to spend more or collect points to be appreciated — especially right now. At T-Mobile, it’s about getting thanked, simply because you’re with us … and we’re with you,” said Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile, in a T-Mobile press release. “And now, we welcome Sprint customers with our biggest thankings ever this summer. Why? Because thank you. That’s why.”
