The platform, with the revolutionary technology, is taking a shot at the market with an annual turnover of over $20 billion.
Some of the benefits of CausePlay’s blockchain platform includes — elimination of Coupon & Rebate fraud which costs the brands as much as $600 million. It also offers businesses with additional capabilities to create customized offers targeting individual users, prevent duplication through built-in DRM protection and also apply bonus values to targeted products to drive incremental value.
The platform also gives much-needed flexibility to the clients. Businesses can control their promotions, loyalty and rewards programs real-time to get the maximum returns. Brands can also expand its customer base by extending the benefits to the unbanked customers, who represent nearly $1 trillion in purchasing power. The use of VCB tokens makes it possible for customers to avail all the benefits without having to connect their bank accounts or credit cards. They can later redeem the rewards for cash, pay for a purchase or even transfer it.
