Talking about the expansion plans for PAYBACK in 2020, Gautam Kaushik, MD & CEO, PAYBACK India, says, “With a focus on increasing the engagement frequency of our members and see new enrolments on the loyalty platform, we are looking at high-frequency transaction segments and are in active discussions with brands in Neighbourhood grocery, Food-delivery, Cab hailing, OTT & streaming media, Quick-Service-Restaurants, online travel tech and Wallets, among others. This will increase the partner network and deepen customer engagement.”
He further added, “We are going to make a slew of announcements on this front in the coming quarters. PAYBACK generally brings on board the top two to three merchants across categories.”

Moreover, the buying frequency of members have grown multi-fold and loyalty points redemptions increased in 2019 as consumers beat slowdown by encashing deals to make shopping pocket-friendly.
