Would you give up your privacy for a shot at free concert tickets, Uber rides or Apple Music tunes? Verizon is betting the answer is yes.

The telecom giant has unveiled a new loyalty program that it says will provide customers with "experiences you won't stop talking about" and "rewards you really, really want." All you have to do is spend at least $300 on your wireless bill or some other Verizon service.
