MasterCard and One Inc. Partner to Bring Innovative Loyalty Solutions to Canadians
Agreement will revolutionize the way Canadians collect rewards and loyalty points
Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - One Inc. and MasterCard Canada have entered into an exclusive partnership agreement to bring innovative loyalty solutions to MasterCard cardholders. One Inc.’s Universal Recognition technology will be used to revolutionize the way Canadians collect rewards and loyalty points with a solution for cardholders currently in development. The technology will give consumers the choice to link their loyalty cards to their MasterCard credit cards to automatically earn rewards points as they complete a transaction. This will eliminate the need to carry or pull out loyalty cards, making it easy and seamless for consumers.
“Canadians love their rewards and loyalty points and partnering with an innovative technology company enhances our ability to provide cardholders with new solutions in the future,” said Wendy Braithwaite, Senior Vice President, Market Development, MasterCard Canada. “We’re looking at the next evolution of the shopping experience, and Universal Recognition will support a service that will change the way cardholders experience payments and loyalty.”
“Our partnership with MasterCard Canada represents a monumental leap forward in delivering the world’s first Universal Recognition platform,” said Jeffrey Moscoe, CEO of One Inc. “Our solution replaces the loyalty cards in a shopper’s wallet with a solution built directly into their MasterCard - in plastic form, via digital wallet or online. Dip, tap or swipe and earn your loyalty points at the same time. Our goal is to make cardholders’ lives easier and more rewarding.”
