I'm sure it's so you visit the store once a week. For online stores visits are the only way you get sales, so they want you to visit as often as possible.
There is probably some data that the client sends too. But that is the defacto standard these days.
It's funny though, they really don't seem to be selling very hard to me when I claim the weekly games. I have no intention of buying there but seems like they would try harder.
