Recently I have been trying a couple of new things, new hobbies,
new cafés hopping and going to start a new job soon. Well if not now, when? So
here I just tried the new app nect™. Something special about this app is that
it rewards me in everything I do and everywhere I go, Nect Rewards My Lifestyle
Experiences. As long as the place is one of nect™ participating outlets on then
I will automatically accumulate points.
Nect Rewards My Lifestyle Experiences |
I know we have many apps on our smartphone so you might ask why do
I need this app? Well, if you are an outgoing person and regular hangout at the
cafes with friend or those who like to do café hopping on weekend with your
partner or friends then you should download nect™ on your mobile.
Closer Kitchen & Espresso Bar, Mutiara Damansara is of of nect™ participating outlets |
Let’s start, nect™ is a very simple app to use. As necters or nect™
users we can harvest nect™ Points (NP) without even taking our phones out of our
handbags or pockets. Harvesting points are done automatically whenever we go in
nect™ Beacons installed in all nect™ powered locations. necters will receive 1
nect™ participating Point for every 5 minutes for up to an hour at each
location, and the accumulated points can be used to redeem specials at the same
location.
Download nect™ app and start using, turn on the discovery mode |
I was at the Closer Kitchen & Espresso Bar, Mutiara Damansara
on Sunday evening for dinner. Great! this café is one of nect™ participating
outlet too. Oh ya make sure that my Bluetooth and my nect™ app discovery mode
is on also.
Redeem my special at the cafe by scanning the the QR code |
As I entered the café I saw there is a nect™ QR sticker on the right
side wall so I walked closer to it and found out that there is Blogger’s Special
that I can redeem. Yeehaa!!! Thanks nect™ and Closer Kitchen & Espresso Bar.
Closer Kitchen & Espresso Bar, Mutiara Damansara |
Overall, the café environment at Closer Kitchen & Espresso Bar
so cozy and comfortable to chill, work, a great place to meet and have a
discussion. I love the zen décor and high ceiling. From outside it looks like a
posh restaurant. I bet lunch on weekdays is pretty busy here but weekends
coffee catch up is perfect. They have varieties of decent food selection from all
day breakfast, sandwiches, pasta, pizza, pie, soup, salad and etc. Coffee is
good with the soft music playing at the back and also free wifi is available. Price
range is about RM20 for main food and RM10 for coffee.
Earn or farm points at cafe through nect™ mobile app |
Oh ya before I left I checked my points.., tadah! so I earned 50 XP
(Experience Points) that can be accumulated to advance to the next level of app
usage. Upon unlocking new levels, I can enjoy point bonuses to speed up
unlocking greater Specials. Wow this is great without doing much. So I every
time I go café hopping preferably the cafes with nect™ I can gained points too.
Besides this as a necters I will also receive updates from retailers regarding
exclusive deals through the app.
Well, why do I like the app? As a coffee lover and café hopper nect™
compliments and rewards my lifestyle. So why not, right? I can have additional
benefits and points while I don’t have to do much just on it and it automatic
detect and accumulating points. Sometimes I get free coffee or food and maybe
new surprise too.
You too can download nect™ mobile app. It is free and available on App Store for iOS and Google Play for Android platform. All you need is to do after
you have download the app are these 4 steps. Enjoy and have fun.
Step 1: Turn on the discovery mode and make sure that your
Bluetooth is on.
Step 2: Farming nect™ point whenever you walk into the any stores
or cafes with nect™ logo on the front of the store front is nect™ powered
locations. For every 5 minutes you are in
the premise you harvest 1 NP.
Step 3: Unlock Special, when you have enough NP points you can
Unlock Special. Launch the special screen and scan the QR Code provided by the
cashier.
Step 4: As we use the nect™ app over the time we will gain the
Experience Points (XP). We can also gain XP by farming NP, redeem Specials or
completing Achievements. We need XP to Level Up to reach the next level and enjoy double NP bonuses.
nect™ is built based on iBeacon technology and developed by
Hyperion Labs Sdn Bhd, a development studio established in 2014. according to Bobby
