Cash back Card: One loyalty card for
all business sectors
Shopping has never been so easy: The
Lyoness Cash back Card works just like a classic loyalty card but, unlike other
popular loyalty cards - with this card the Members receive money back directly
in their bank account. With every purchase they make, money accumulates in the
Member's personal Cash Account. As soon as $10.00 has accumulated, Lyoness
transfers the money to the Member's personal bank account.
Shop, receive money back and do
something good
The Lyoness Child & Family
Foundation was founded in 2008 as an independent charitable organization, which
supports national and international aid projects under the slogan
"Education. Opportunities. Future". The Lyoness Greenfinity
Foundation (GFF) was established in 2011 as a non-profit foundation. It is a
politically independent, charitable organization that advocates sustainable
environmental protection, realizes innovative climate protection projects
worldwide, and promotes the use of renewable energy. With every purchase they
make Lyoness Members support the projects of both Lyoness Foundations.
The businesses who present the free
card to their patron and ask them to become members and to shop loyal to the
Lyoness Merchants create a win, win, win for the community.
So what does it mean for the community?
Every time a member who got a Free Card from a Lyoness Merchant or Member shops
anywhere in the globe or on-line a small part of the money comes back to our
community in the form of loyalty cash back and member benefits to the member
who gave the person the card.
With every purchase the member will
receive credit up to 2% of the purchase value on his/her Cash Account, thus
saving a continually increasing amount in his personal Cash Account. From a
certain amount, it will be paid to the private bank account of the member,
without any deductions.
Cash back directly to the Lyoness

next generation of Cash back Cards, which will revolutionize the experiences of
