Avanquest Software, a leading developer of consumer software and apps, has announced the launch of AQ Rewards app – a free Android application that rewards users with Bytecent for trying out new applications, filling out surveys, and other activities.

With the release of this app, the company says that it is reinventing how rewards are sent and received by instantly rewarding users with a digital currency. Users can convert their Bytecent into gift cards, and unlike other rewards programs, Bytecent can also be traded on the popular cryptocurrency exchange Bittrex for Bitcoin and fiat currencies.

AQ Rewards leverages the speed, flexibility, and security of blockchain technology by using the Bytecent platform to distribute rewards to users. Users are immediately rewarded with Bytecent by giving out the digital currency as a reward.

“AQ Rewards bridges the gap between digital currency enthusiasts and mainstream consumers. AQ Rewards serves as an example of a real world implementation of blockchain technology while introducing a new audience to the concept of digital currencies”, the company said.

The app is currently available on Android, and Avanquest plans further development of AQ Rewards on other platforms.
