Reaping rewards
Kiip is a service that taps into a game's achievements system to offer real-world rewards to players for topping high scores and passing certain challenges.
The network currently delivers more than five rewards per second from over 120 apps reaching a worldwide user base of 30 million.
This week the company announced it would be branching out into fitness apps starting with a partnership with PepsiCo in the US.
