I was at Changi City Point this afternoon for lunch and got to know about Frasers Rewards.  It is a point-based loyalty programme accepted at 11 Frasers Centrepoint Malls islandwide.  Members earn points (FCM$), e-cash and lucky draw chances when shopping at participating retailers.

Frasers Rewards is accepted at:

(From 15 March 2013)
  • Anchorpoint
  • Causeway Point
  • Changi City Point
  • Compass Point
  • Northpoint

Summary of Fraser Rewards benefits:
  • Earn 2FCM$ for every $10 spent at Robinsons, Marks & Spencer and educational centres and 5FCM$ for every $10 spent at all other participating retailers. (Point earning capped at 1,000 FCM$ per calendar quarter inclusive of bonus points)
  • Receive a 20FCM$ bonus with every 12 visits to Frasers Centrepoint Malls. (Minimum spend of $10 applies per visit, capped at 60FCM$ per calendar quarter)
  • Exchange FCM$ for e-cash each quarter. (E-cash is loaded directly into Frasers Rewards card - no more fussy vouchers.  First 500FCM$ = $5 e-cash.  Every subsequent 100FCM$ till 1000FCM$ = $3 e-cash.)
  • Be 1 of 200 winning members to receive $100 e-cash each calendar quarter. (Earn 1 lucky draw chance with every $30 spent each day group wide within a calendar quarter. Members can continue to earn lucky draw chances even if the 1,000FCM$ cap is exceeded)
  • Track FCM$ and e-cash through the members' portal and look out for seasonal perks including free parking, retailers' offers, discounts or invitations to members' events.

I had one burning question - how good was the loyalty programme?  To measure the attractiveness of the loyalty program, i computed the cash rebate percentage equivalent (assuming 5FCM$ per $10 spend).  Here's what i found:

Quarterly Spend ($) FCM$ E-cash ($) Cash Rebate
1,000 500 5 0.50%
1,200 600 8 0.67%
1,400 700 11 0.79%
1,600 800 14 0.88%
1,800 900 17 0.94%
2,000 1,000 20 1.00%

Well, is Frasers Rewards attractive?  I shall leave that to readers of my blog to decide.
