Perk Labs Launches New "PERKS" Crypto Rewards

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 3, 2022 / Perk Labs Inc. (CSE:PERK)(OTCQB:PKLBF)(FKT:PKLB) ("Perk" or the "Company"), the digital franchise company helping businesses transition to the digital economy, is pleased to announce the launch of its cryptocurrency rewards under the symbol "PERKS".

"Our PERKS crypto rewards are designed to bring cryptocurrency to mainstream consumers by rewarding them for purchases made online, in restaurants, and other brick & mortar establishments," said Jonathan Hoyles, CEO, Perk Labs. "We believe that out of the many roads possible to the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies, which includes decentralized finance (DeFi), stable coins, cryptocurrency mining, and non-fungible tokens, the simplest and most accessible path for the public at large is to use cryptocurrency for everyday purchases and to accumulate cryptocurrency as a loyalty reward."

Unlike most cryptocurrencies, PERKS has an easy-to-understand utility and is designed to be used for purchasing both real and digital goods and services. PERKS is designed to be fast, secure, and with environmental impact in mind. Built on one of the most environmentally-friendly blockchain payment technologies available today, PERKS uses the Solana blockchain and requires near-zero energy to run.[1]

The Company is providing customers with the option to convert their cashback-based rewards that were previously earned through Perk Hero into PERKS cryptocurrency. In addition, through the Perk Hero platform, customers will soon be able to pay using PERKS when dining in or picking up at a restaurant, to purchase eCommerce products, and to buy digital gift cards.

As a leader and digital pioneer in the crypto loyalty reward space, the Company sees the opportunity to bring other companies into its loyalty reward program and also the opportunity to white-label its crypto loyalty rewards. Similarly, as an example of market validation, Starbucks on its recent Q4 earnings call discussed that they are exploring how to tokenize Starbucks Stars and create the ability for other merchants to connect their rewards program to Starbucks Rewards.[2] Forty percent of consumers polled in a recent Mastercard survey said they are planning to use digital assets to make a purchase in the next 12 months. Research from Mastercard's New Payment Index indicates that 93% of those polled will consider using at least one cutting-edge way of settling transactions - such as crypto, biometrics, QR codes or contactless.[3]

The Company's roadmap for this year includes introducing new ways that PERKS can be redeemed or exchanged for other digital goods and assets, developing a special rewards zone including NFTs, and new and innovative ways to use PERKS as an incentive for customers to sign-up for the Company's services.
