App Download Completion Reward Template

Offer discount codes, bonus content, or gated perks to motivate new installs, while growing your audience and reinforcing a long-term app promotion strategy. This approach helps promote your app, drive downloads, and convert high-intent visitors into engaged app users you can nurture via push notifications and email marketing.

Optimization Tips

• Add review and rating prompts after first open to build social proof for your app store listing.
• Feature the Reward on a focused landing page to reduce friction and highlight the incentive.
• Use UTM tracking per channel to attribute which ad campaigns, socials, or influencer marketing drive the most verified installs.
• Keep rewards relevant: subscription discounts, premium feature trials, or content that keeps users engaged in the long term.
• Refresh creative and call to action monthly to maintain app visibility and avoid banner fatigue.
