What is the solution to the Loyalty Rewards problem?

 

As of 2017, the estimated value of the global incentives and rewards industry was approximately US$320 billion with an annual growth of 6% expected thereafter. According to a survey by Code Broker, The Nielsen Company, 76% of the consumers simply do not use their shopping incentives and the 2016 Bond Loyalty Report states that from loyalty programmes across all industries, the percentage of active members was only 50 percent and of this 10 % had never redeemed their rewards. The Bond report also showed that loyalty reward members who do redeem their reward points were 2.7 times more likely to defect from a programme and join another.

So why the low redemption rate?

Loyalty points, for the most part, are not convertible to cash and due to their nature, consumers own an excessive amount of loyalty points they do not redeem. Merchants and big chains devote numerous resources keeping track of loyalty points, and marketing their programmes. However, only a small percentage of these get redeemed for products people actually want, resulting in considerable company resources being wasted and customers paying for points they do not use.

The reason consumers are ignoring so many rewards programmes is because the majority of programmes look the same. Each provides, to varying degrees, some form of bonus, some form of discount, or some sort of privileged access. Considering loyalty points are powerful tools to trigger purchases, there is a surprising apathy towards their utilisation.

In addition, due to the inflexible nature of reward points and shopping incentives, consumers are not easily able to transfer exchange or sell them to other users. With an ever-increasing number of loyalty cards in wallets and purses, highly impractical for use on a daily basis as they to be constantly carried around in physical wallets, it is not surprising that consumers have difficulty utilising their points.

Finterra’s Loyalty points Exchange

Finterra’s Loyalty Points Exchange looks to change that by enabling the secure exchange of Merchant Loyalty Reward Points, adding liquidity to currently unused loyalty points by allowing consumers to buy/sell / transfer/exchange / and gift their loyalty points for products and services from merchants on the points exchange ecosystem. Being able to use their Loyalty Reward Points in this way creates a situation where reward points have an actual value and puts the buying power back into the hands of the consumer.

With the exchange, being built on Finterra’s Blockchain IP and accessed online, multitude brands and merchants can be carried on a smartphone, without the need to carry excessive loyalty cards. The added bonus of this being both the consumer and the merchant can see and verify the transactions in real time and records updated immediately.

Finterra Blockchain offers the possibility for unique (and uniquely verifiable) items and having this information on a smartphone means a precise geolocation can be used to offer increased value to existing customers and new customers through the exchange ecosystem. Additionally, the valuable data gathered from the transactions that take place through smartphones and online via eWallets allows merchants, and brands the opportunity to target specific groups of users according to their interests, demographics or location, hence driving value and engagement with consumers to new levels.

Using Blockchain For Identity Management 

Solving the current state of identification management

 

In mid-2017, an Equifax data breach exposed 145.5 million users’ data. The breach was caused by a software flaw which allowed the hackers to take over the company’s website. 

Currently, people receive many different identification certificates, including social security and medical ID cards; however, their personal data may be stored in many places, including their bank, their insurance company, and on any subscription software they use, such as their Netflix account. Any of these intermediaries could be hacked, exploiting their users’ personal information.

To combat money laundering and other illegal financial activities, financial services firms must comply with know your customer (KYC) processes. These firms collect and verify identity information to screen new customers and assess risk. The process is slow and expensive—estimates of KYC costs are upwards of $15-$20 per new customer enrolled.

For better identity management, let’s explore some of the solutions that blockchain’s most prominent features could bring;

 

Better control over personal data

In blockchain, users know what data is collected about them and how they are processed. Due to blockchain’s open nature, any modification of the protocol requires the consensus of the nodes, meaning optimum transparency and security for all users.

 

Improved privacy   

With the transparency of the ledger, the combination of secure end-to-end encryption of communication also help reduce the privacy concerns arising from the public nature of the ledger.

 

Engage in relationships with more trust

Blockchain removes the middleman and allows citizens to manage their own identity, allowing them to be better managed and traced to its source.

 

Identity management provides a promising opportunity to moderate identity theft and fraud and reduce overall costs and time. While cybersecurity concerns are a real concern still, improved technology will build trust in this new way for people around the world to manage their identity.

With the increase in demand for equity-based funding, Musharakah will aim to help alleviate the Islam banking industry and lead Malaysia into a new dimension of innovative and attractive product offerings.



Musharakah: An Islamic term for partnership. It refers to two or more persons jointly owning an item or contracting jointly for profit



Shirkat-ul-‘aqd: A partnership created through a contract. This can also be translated to mean a type of joint commercial enterprise.

The breakdown of Shirkat-ul-‘aqd
a) Shirkat-ul-amwaal (Partnership by investment):
This shirkah or partnership is formed when partners invest some small capital into a business.



b) Shirkat-ul-a‘maal (Partnership by work):
This is where all the partners jointly undertake to render some services for their customers, and the fee charged from them is distributed among them according to an agreed ratio.

c) Shirkat-ul-wujooh (Partnership by face):
Here the partners have no investment at all. All they do is that they purchase items on credit and attempt to resell them for cash at a higher price. The resulting profit is shared among the partners after the debt is repaid from the proceeds.



Shirkat-ul-milk: Joint ownership between the parties involved, where each party has provided capital in order to purchase a particular property.

This implies that one partner is buying another partnership’s share gradually and the process continues until full ownership belongs to a partner. Once all shares of one partner has been bought by his/her partner then Musharakah is no longer exist.

Finterra’s Endowment Chain community are in an essence, contributing capital to develop land provided by a waqf agent into commercial properties. It is worth to understand that once the partnership has been set up, all partners are co-owners. Based on this premise, there is a need to provide a broad framework to facilitate the healthy involvement of such contracts in the Islamic banking industry.
