Some common rewards:
Free use for some number of months.
First shot at their preferred user names; lower user #n.
Badges; points; karma; etc.
Public recognition.
A bit more expense and with fulfillment hassle:
Physical swag: t-shirts, pens, buttons, etc.
A bit more leg work:
Complimentary, complementary partner service.
My favorite:
Make your product so awesome that the value it provides is reward enough.
- kohgpat 14y agoYou can give them a special badge.
- mrgreenfur 14y agoSolid list. I'm going through the same thing soon and have decided to never give it away. Give it away while you're patching critical bugs, but if it works, they should pay for it. Give them other stuff, like faster response times or better support, but you should never give the product away. No idea if this makes business sense, but it's what I've settled on.
- tzaman 14y agoThank you, a very comprehensive list!
