SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE) via NewsEdge Corporation -- Sports Superstore Online (www.shopsports.com), the global leader of sports e-commerce continues to add value to the online shopping experience.

The company Friday announced an agreement with Netcentives, the leader in incentive, promotional and loyalty programs for electronic commerce. Under the terms of the agreement, Sports Superstore will become the exclusive general sporting goods retailer on the ClickRewards Shopping Network.

Visitors to Sports Superstore Online will see special offers promoted throughout the site. Promotions will change from time to time, and currently shoppers can earn 5,000 ClickMiles by shopping at Sports Superstore and up to 10,000 ClickMiles by shopping Sports Superstore in combination with any other merchant in the ClickRewards network.
