TCS Launches Blockchain-based Loyalty Platform

Tata Consultancy Services announced the launch of a next-generation blockchain-based multi-brand customer loyalty platform using R3’s Corda.

The rise and popularity of customer loyalty programs have brought clear benefits to customers and brands, improving customer retention, driving higher cart values and helping brands identify their more profitable customers. However, the proliferation of these programs makes it hard for customers, who have to manage multiple loyalty programs to interact with different brands.

Responding to this market opportunity, TCS has designed and built a loyalty platform that uses blockchain to facilitate tokenized value exchange, making it possible to streamline and consolidate fragmented ‘earning and burning’ channels from participating brands across industries. Users can view, manage, and redeem their loyalty points from different brands in one place, ensuring a seamless and frictionless experience.

“Customer loyalty programs have proven their ability to bring consumers and brands closer together. The key to unlocking further exponential value is to provide complete control to the consumer on how they like to earn and burn,” said Lakshminarasimhan (Lakshmi) Srinivasan, Global Head, Blockchain Services, TCS. “An open, incentivized ecosystem can make trillions of loyalty points fungible as digital tokens. We are excited to launch this next-gen loyalty platform for orchestrating the tokenized value exchange.”

David E. Rutter, Chief Executive Officer, R3, said, “This is a genuinely innovative approach to improve how brands interact with their customers through loyalty programs. Corda was built and designed to deliver precisely these types of process and efficiency improvements to the interactions across multiple organizations, consumers and channels.”

TCS’ Blockchain Services offers blockchain advisory, consulting and technology implementation services. It is developing various platform solutions to drive blockchain adoption amongst enterprises across multiple industries. TCS’ award-winning Quartz™ Blockchain solution is a critical accelerator that helps enterprises embrace blockchain within their organizations as well as to build an ecosystem while co-existing with extant systems.
