RNS Number : 7162S  Mode Global Holdings PLC  18 November 2021

Mode Global Holdings PLC

("Mode" or "the Company" or "the Group")

 

Mode to bring Bitcoin Cashback to 40+ UK retailers to put Bitcoin into the
hands of millions

 

●    Mode to expand Bitcoin Cashback to 40+ retailers in Q2, 2022
including Ocado, Homebase and Boots

●    Standalone affiliate Bitcoin Cashback product will enable UK
shoppers to earn Bitcoin at participating online stores

●    Additional retailers to be added in due course

 

Mode Global Holdings PLC ("LSE:MODE"), the LSE-listed Fintech Group, will be
expanding its Bitcoin Cashback offering to 40+ merchants in Q2 2022, as part
of a standalone affiliate product. Retailers at launch will include Ocado,
Homebase, and Boots enabling millions of customers in the UK to earn Bitcoin
with everyday purchases.

 

Mode's Bitcoin Cashback counters traditional loyalty and cashback programmes,
which can offer rewards that are hard to withdraw, slow to redeem or
irrelevant to the customer. In response, Mode is turning legacy rewards
schemes on their head by providing customers in the UK with the opportunity to
build a stake in Bitcoin, without taking on the risk of investing.

 

Customers will be able to browse Cashback offers at participating retailers on
the Mode app, before going to the selected retailer's website to complete
their purchase. The Bitcoin will be credited into the customer's Mode account,
where they can store the asset or take advantage of the Company's FCA
registered exchange to grow their Bitcoin.

 

The expansion of Mode's Bitcoin Cashback offering is the next step in the
company's strategy to develop a next-generation loyalty scheme that offers
relevant rewards with real value to consumers. The programme will also enable
retailers to boost loyalty amongst higher value demographics.

 

Ryan Moore, CEO of Mode, commented: "I am delighted to announce the
development of our Bitcoin Cashback offering as a standalone product,
following the fantastic response from our customers, and accelerating appetite
for the cryptocurrency. This marks a major step in making the asset class more
accessible to consumers of all demographics, ultimately bringing Bitcoin into
the hands of millions of customers across the UK."
