You know what it is, and you may even have a personal stake in the crypto marketplace—but what does crypto have to do with loyalty and engagement?
Everything.
Consumers are always on the lookout for the next best thing. They want bigger rewards, better perks and more engaging experiences relevant to their preferences, priorities and perspectives. And considering today’s consumers are faced with unprecedented optionality and access to newness throughout the marketplace, it’s hard to fault their desire for the latest and greatest—especially as consumers, ourselves.

Did you know that cryptocurrency adoption is up 881% in the past year¹—with an estimated 300 million cryptocurrency users across the globe² and over 50 million Americans expected to buy crypto in the next 12 months³ alone? The fact of the matter is consumer interest in crypto is skyrocketing. And the time to invest in and capitalize on this global phenomenon for the sake of your consumers is right now.
Instead of trying to shoehorn loyalty and engagement into the crypto marketplace, do what we did: Bring the crypto exchange to the loyalty marketplace with one simple integration—and make it accessible, informative, engaging and rewarding.
Your consumers and members will thank you with their increased brand love and sustained engagement.
