> ***The token NEXT is a kind of loyalty point, but much more appealing!***

The biggest difference between ShopNEXT compared to other loyalty applications is the use of tokens on the blockchain to replace traditional reward points, namely:

* ShopNEXT only uses one reward token, NEXT, for all brands
* The value of the reward token is not fixed but fluctuates according market forces of supply & demand
* You can exchange the reward tokens for phone prepaid cards, shopping vouchers, NFT cards (bonus cards) or cash out
* NEXT reward tokens can be traded easily globally

Moreover, ShopNEXT's token-rewarding program is applied in conjunction with other discounts and promotions of most merchants.
