Rather than have you go out of your way to download a dedicated rewards app for a brand, MoPals offers incentives for activities that you're probably already doing on a daily basis, such as virtually checking in, sharing photos and writing reviews. Driven by the power of social influence, this "crowdsourced loyalty program" was developed to reward you for doing things other than dropping cash. In comparison to similar platforms like Yelp, TripAdvisor and FourSquare, MoPals provides something more tangible and rewarding than a virtual badge and makes it worth your while to share.
A recent update to the app now lets you load your physical membership cards to the app, clearing up tons of space in your wallet. As far as some of the perks that you can work towards buying with "MoCoins" on the MoPals marketplace, there's unique rewards for travel, events and products.
