Both department stores and large corporations issue membership cards. With the membership card, you can get discounts at cooperating stores or attend member only events. Bonus points are awarded upon every purchase made with the membership card. These points can be used for extra discounts, swap points for souvenirs or service upgrades (e.g. upgrades of hotel suite, flight seating class … etc).

The POS terminal unit is capable of attaining the member information and carrying out the credit card transaction at the same time. The terminal unit will transmit all necessary information to the Symlink Card Synergy Server which is in charge of receiving and processing all membership card transactions. Necessary credit card information will be transmitted to the bank server for authorization. Upon completion, the amount of bonus points awarded for the transaction will be saved. The MIS membership system maintained by the department store can acquire member information from the Symlink Card Synergy Server.
