trade.io’s Director, Consulting and Strategy, Will Corkin, and MD of Research & Business Development, John Patrick Mullin, celebrating the recent collaboration with Gabrotech’s Chairman Andy, P.K. Chen and staff.

Our line-up of highly esteemed clients just keeps on getting better and better. We’re proud to announce that we have now teamed up with Gabrotech, a blockchain-based “open-loop and decentralized” loyalty program.

Gabrotech links up thousands of reward programs in an open-loop decentralized ecosystem, providing instant redemption and exchange capabilities across multiple loyalty point programs or currencies. As a result, customers would only need to use one Gabrotech wallet to manage all of their rewards programs and freely convert their points or they can simply share their points with millions of other users in the platform by using their ERC20 token, GBO.

Gabrotech’s token sales have commenced and will last until 30th September, 2018.

Community members can benefit from a exclusive 5% bonus on top of Gabrotech’s public bonus structure.

Key facts about the loyalty program industry and Gabrotech:

The loyalty rewards program is worth an estimated 500 billion USD per year.

Gabrotech has accumulated data from surveys that show 78% of consumers are unhappy with their loyalty programs.

As little as 10% of rewards points are currently being redeemed, depending on the sector. This is a major pain-point for Loyalty Program Operators (LPO).

Gabrotech’s solution eliminates the need for multiple rewards systems, accounts and passwords.

The platform allows for easy tracking and verification of tokens being traded or used with an ecosystem that connects multiple LPOs, merchants, institutional buyers, and customers with a digital asset (GBO token) that covers these bases.

Allows customers to consolidate their rewards points from several programs into one.
