Cointime Official

Starbucks has launched its NFT-driven rewards program Starbucks Odyssey in beta.

• The platform will add more users in January and implement a marketplace that enables trading along with buying limited-edition NFTs.

• Starbucks says that demand for the platform so far has been “unprecedented” and the response from customers has been “overwhelming”.

• First announced in September, Starbucks Odyssey builds upon the firm’s existing Starbucks Rewards initiative, but with a Web3 twist. Users can earn rewards points for buying food and drinks at stores, but also for participating in activities via the Odyssey mobile app, such as quizzes and other digital experiences.

• In 2023, Starbucks Odyssey will launch its NFT marketplace powered by Nifty Gateway, letting users buy and sell their Journey Stamps, as well as purchase limited-edition NFTs created in collaboration with company partners.

Starbucks Odyssey has launched in Beta, and coffee lovers have something new to be excited about. Starbucks is no stranger to innovation, as it strives constantly to be at the forefront of customer engagement. With its initiative for non-fungible tokens (NFTs), it’s continuing with its tradition of reinventing the way customers interact with brands. The rewards are sure to benefit both customers and Starbucks by providing users with exclusive discounts and offers that only those who hold NFTs can redeem.

What is Starbucks Odyssey?

Starbucks Odyssey is a mobile-based experience that offers customers exclusive rewards for their loyalty and engagement. The platform allows customers to participate in quizzes and other digital experiences in order to earn points which can then be used to purchase rewards like free drinks or food items. Moreover, starting in 2023, customers will be able to buy and sell limited edition NFTs (non-fungible tokens) on the Nifty Gateway Marketplace. These tokens are created in collaboration with company partners such as AT&T and Microsoft.

NFT-Driven Rewards Program Overview

The initial rollout of Starbucks Odyssey includes an innovative rewards program that allows customers to collect digital Journey Stamps by engaging with the app’s various features. Customers who collect enough stamps can redeem them for special discounts or exclusive merchandise. Additionally, at select locations, customers can use their phones to scan QR codes for additional rewards or discounts on merchandise or food items from partner companies such as AT&T and Microsoft.

In addition to earning points through interactive experiences within the app, users will also be able to buy rare NFTs created by company partners via the Nifty Gateway marketplace in 2023. These tokens represent ownership of certain digital assets and offer access to exclusive content or events not available anywhere else.

  • Trump: Data Centers May Be More Important Than Oil

    August 7 news, U.S. President Trump said in an interview with Punchbowl News, "I saw the other day that Texas seems to be opposed to building data centers. I think that's a mistake. I'm not taking a position—I just think it's a mistake, because there are other communities that want to build data centers. When a community is willing to accept data centers, it means a lot of money will flow into that community. I don't think they're ugly. Some of the data centers I've seen are the most incredible buildings I've ever seen. They are very important to the economy. If Texas says no to data centers, that's a mistake, because data centers may be more important than oil."

  • Trump to Meet with Mining Executives

    On August 7, according to CCTV International News, US President Trump will convene executives from some of the world's largest mining companies at the US State Department on August 7 local time, in an effort to take action to 'secure critical mineral supplies for the US and its allies.' Reuters reported that the US urgently needs critical minerals to replenish weapons inventories depleted during the war against Iran. During the more than five-month war with Iran, the US military expended large quantities of precision-guided missiles and air defense interceptors. US defense officials and lawmakers have warned that given existing production capacity constraints, replenishing some stockpiles could take years—although the Trump administration has denied reports of a so-called 'severe shortage of ammunition stockpiles.' According to Pentagon officials and defense companies, supplies of minerals such as rare earths, tungsten, germanium, and scandium are essential for manufacturing precision-guided missiles, fighter jets, armored vehicles, infrared sensors, and other advanced weapons systems. Expected attendees include industry giants such as global mining giant Rio Tinto Group, Australia's BHP, US Freeport-McMoRan, US Mountain Pass Materials, US Rare Earths, US Energy Fuels, and Canada's Metals Company. According to sources, the Trump administration plans to announce multiple deals and memorandums of understanding.
