Revolutionizing Loyalty Programs with Blockchain Technology
Are you tired of loyalty points that hold no value and lack liquidity? According to Gabriele Giancola, the CEO of Qiibee Foundation, blockchain and Web3 technology are game-changers for the rewards program ecosystem. Let’s dive into how these innovative solutions are transforming the way brands engage with their customers through loyalty programs.
Making Loyalty Points Liquid
One of the significant issues with traditional loyalty programs is the lack of value associated with the points. Giancola highlights that over $500 billion worth of points are currently locked globally, equivalent to the GDP of Switzerland. To address this challenge, Qiibee believes that creating more liquidity for loyalty points is crucial. By partnering with other brands, users can have the flexibility to use their points across a network of brands, enhancing the overall value proposition.

While many loyalty programs lack value, successful ones like American Express’ ‘Amex’ card offer substantial benefits to customers. Giancola describes Amex’s loyalty program as synonymous with delivering free money to its users. As the landscape shifts towards Web3, newer loyalty programs are focusing on enhancing user engagement and providing better customer experiences through blockchain technology.
