Arrow Recognition Points are awarded to partners when they find, share and recommend content. Points canthen be redeemed against benefits within the Arrow Inpartnership scheme.

It helps raise awareness of their technologies, helps them to increase their channel base and guarantees that their news, promotions, programmes, training and events are widely promoted.
