Blockchain Firm LoyalCoin launches the Pensionado Card
Filipinos love membership and loyalty cards. And who wouldn’t right? They offer exclusive deals, perks, discounts, and even cashback options. But with the sheer volume of establishments who offer them to Filipino consumers, it’s now harder than ever to keep track all of them, albeit carry them around. Lucky for us, local blockchain firm LoyalCoin has a solution: the LoyalCoin Pensionado Card. Here are the top 5 reasons why you should get the Pensionado Card A-S-A-P!
Centralized Customer Rewards (Reason 1)
Let’s be honest here. It feels good to be rewarded because of consumer loyalty. The only challenge is, there’s just too many of them. In a world where companies and brands fight for your loyalty left and right, it’s too enticing not to sign up. Resulting in confusion, nay overlaps among customers.
That’s where the LoyalCoin Pensionado card comes in. No, the card isn’t merely for senior citizens.
With its public launch last May 18, LoyalCoin announced that the Pensionado card is a special membership card that gives mass consumers the ability to accumulate, combine, and monitor point. All in just one centralized location from all of LoyalCoin’s brand partners! Mostly across the food and beverages, retail, and travel industries.
LoyalCoin Pensionado Card’s Global Reach (Reason 2)
Currently, LoyalCoin has 83 partner partners in 236 locations all over the Philippines. And rapidly counting! Currently, LoyalCoin has been expanding aggressively globally. And the Pensionado card is now accepted at over 1,000 locations across different brands. Some of these brands include Grab, Mabuhay Miles, Get Go Rewards, Gong Cha, AirAsia Big Points, Starbucks etc. In the United States, LoyalCoin has partnered with Tango, the largest aggregator of loyalty programs. Which has access to giants like Walmart, Amazon, and even Uber!
So not only does Pensionado give you consumer power in the Philippines. It also gives one perks and exclusive deals even while travelling! All you have to do is register your existing loyalty memberships. Then connect them to the app, and earn and redeem away! How amazing is that?
Supports and Promotes SMEs (Reason 3)
The next reason to get the LoyalCoin Pensionado card is one of my favourites actually. In the advent of entrepreneurial empowerment, LoyalCoin has opened a big window for SMEs (small-medium enterprises) to thrive. How?
While Pensionado’s redemption partners are popular and leading brands (i.e. Grab, AirAsia etc), points accumulation is mostly with local SMEs. So one one hand, you dine and patronise mom-and-pops restaurants and brands. On the other, you get points to redeem with global giants in the process. A win-win situation for everyone, really!
Points NEVER Expire! (Reason 4)
Talking about points, don’t you just hate it when they expire? After months or even years of accumulating them, only to find out that the points have already gone past and void? Worse, the actual membership or loyalty card has already expired. Then you would need to pay renewal fee again.
With the LoyalCoin Pensionado card, not only is points earning and redemption centralized. But the card and points will NEVER Expire! Which is just the best thing ever! You’ve earn those loyalty points fair and square. So why should they have an expiration date, right?
Backed up by LoyalCoin (Reason 5)
Last but not the least, the Pensionado Card is backed up by LoyalCoin, the first local cryptocurrency in the Philippines.
So essentially, when you accumulate loyalty points, you earn LoyalCoins. This means that LoyalCoin is a point you earn from brands that issue it as a form of loyalty reward. The key difference about LoyalCoin is that it’s built on the latest blockchain technology.Making it possible to use your points on more than just redeeming rewards and perks from your favorite brands. It also has the potential to make you earn (big) passive income just like BitCoin fans have. LoyalCoin, after all is a cryptocurrency, right? (But more about this soon!)

It would be great if all branches of participating merchants will accept Loyalcoins and this Pensionado card. The Gong-Cha branch in SM Legazpi still doesn’t accept Loyalcoins.
Thank you for this information
