Cash IQ's series of challenging brain workouts has been designed to
stretch and flex mathematical and memory based skills. 'Beat the Bank',
'Check your Balance', 'Shopping List' and 'Flip & Pin' complete the addictive
portfolio.

Beat the Bank

Coins of various denominations drop from the top of the screen into a
piggybank. Some of the coins drop out of the bottom of the piggybank; the
player is challenged to correctly state the balance remaining inside at the
end of each sequence. Once a sequence has finished, a calculator-type
interface appears, allowing the player to enter the amount they believe is
remaining. Numbers can be entered using the iPhone's touch screen and a timer
counts down, giving the player a limited period to enter their total, the
added pressure only increases the challenge.

Check Your Balance

Gamers are tasked to place shopping bags on a seesaw, ensuring that when
it finally rests it is evenly balanced. Each bag represents a different item,
such as groceries or clothing, reflecting popular categories of spend for
Platinum Cashback Cardmembers. The player can drag and drop the bags on and
off the seesaw using the touch screen or the mouse.

Shopping List

A classic memory game, Shopping List features a conveyor belt that moves
a selection of items across the screen in sequence. Again, the items reflect
popular areas of spend for Cardmembers such as petrol, grocery, travel and
sporting goods. Once the final item has scrolled across the screen, a grid
appears and players must tap to select each of the items from the grid in the
order that they were scanned. If the player gets an item wrong a klaxon will
sound and the correct object will flash, then the player must continue to try
and guess the remaining order or objects.

Flip & Pin

In this puzzle game players must flip different shaped tiles around a 12
x 12 grid, and cover the highlighted areas completely. Within each level the
player will be given sufficient shaped tiles to correctly complete the puzzle
- with a limited number of pins available to hold tiles in place. Tiles must
lay flat, none must touch and none must overlap. As difficulty builds the
areas and shapes become larger and more complex, often with more than one
area appearing on screen at any one time. Each tile movement is counted. At
the end of the level bonuses are given for the least number of movements.

Gameplay modes and high scores:

Players can play the mini-games individually or in sequence via three
modes of play. 'Classic' mode randomly selects three of the mini-games for
the player to play through. 'Brain strain' tests the player by giving them
one minute to complete each of the mini-games in an attempt to gain the
highest score. 'Training' lets the player select and play any of the mini
games individually.

After each game in Classic and Brain strain modes, the player's score is
displayed and totalled up, 5% is then added to their score. The 5% represents
the market-leading introductory cashback offer available in the first three
months on the Platinum Cashback Credit Card 1.

With the iPhone version of Cash IQ, players can challenge their friends
to beat their high scores using Facebook Connect. Selecting a game mode takes
the player to an information screen, displaying their friends' rankings. From
here the player can choose to play solo or challenge one of their friends,
simply by tapping on their avatar.

Features:

    - Free iPhone game download
    - iPhone and Facebook integration - challenge friends iPhone and
    compete with them for Facebook high scores
