Membership payment and bonus system

This new type is about a membership payment and bonus system, especially the membership payment and bonus system for collecting and paying third party bills.

Today's business competition among various industries is fierce. How to attract consumers to generate trading behaviors and get business opportunities is the key to determining whether companies or businesses can continue to operate. In order to continue to attract consumers' purchases, many businesses will launch a variety of marketing programs to stimulate consumers' willingness to buy. These marketing programs include additional benefits such as coupons, giveaways, and point redemption along with consumer behavior.

In the convenience store, the point redemption is most often used to increase the return rate. There are two common implementation methods for the marketing scheme of the redemption points. One is to return a virtual bonus in a specific proportion based on the amount of consumption. However, the virtual bonus is stored in the card or the background through the card mode, so the consumer needs to hold the card in order to perform the redemption operation. If the card is lost or forgotten, the virtual bonus will not be returned. The other is a sticker for the entity points that is accompanied by consumer behavior. However, the point stickers must be pre-printed before the marketing campaign begins, and the physical point stickers are printed in a non-environmentally friendly manner. Moreover, it is more troublesome to use the manual transmission method for the point stickers, and it is difficult to control the consumption of the number of stickers. Moreover, during marketing activities, it is often necessary to manually check the points stickers. At the end of the marketing campaign, the collection and quantity statistics of the points stickers must also be carried out manually.
