The Block: PointSwap Collaborates With E-commerce and OMO Retail Solution Giant 91APP To Launch The Largest Web3 Loyalty Points Exchange

The PointSwap token exchange announced a partnership with one-stop E-commerce and OMO (online-merge-offline) SaaS retail solution giant 91APP during the Token 2049 event. PointSwap will build the largest Web3 loyalty points exchange program with its partners. As the strategic Web2 partner of PointSwap, 91APP is the leading omni-channel retail solutions provider in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Malaysia. Its platform boasts consumer brands such as Philips, 3M, Timberland, The North Face, and MAKE UP FOR EVER. As the strategic Web3 partner of PointSwap, ThunderCore will offer its expertise in core blockchain technology.

What is PointSwap

PointSwap is building a trustless protocol and mobile app that enable loyalty points to be freely traded on-chain and redeemed off-chain, said Cheryl Chueh, CEO of PointSwap. Consumers can painlessly manage their assets in loyalty points programs with a familiar E-commerce platform interface. By empowering Web2 loyalty points programs with Web3 ownership concepts, brands can incentivize existing customers to return and attract new customers, increasing the customer lifetime value (LTV) and decreasing the customer acquisition cost (CAC).

Bringing DeFi to Loyalty Point Programs and E-commerce

Many projects have tried to build technological solutions to the loyalty points exchange problem. One stumbling block is the difficulty of negotiating the exchange rate among different programs and brands. It’s almost impossible to have all brands agree on a fair rate of exchange and keep that updated with market conditions. With the automatic market maker mechanism frequently used in DeFi, supply and demand will automatically determine the relative prices of the participants. What was difficult in Web2 could be solved using Web3 technologies.

Be The Consumer Portal To Web3 Commerce And Crypto Off-Ramp

People’s daily consumption is the foundation of the economy. PointSwap’s strategy is to be the Web2.5 portal that leads consumers to Web3 commerce, said Cheryl. By allowing cryptocurrencies to be converted into loyalty points, PointSwap will act as a crypto off-ramp with real-world utility. The platform will further optimize the Web2 user experience to maximize user adoption of Web3 technologies, then implement foundational concepts like AMM, DeFi, and DID in consumers’ daily lives and roll them out step-by-step. PointSwap calls on all interested brands to join the platform and revolutionize Web3 commerce together.
