News North Korean restaurant issuing reward card for loyal customers, photo showsPyongyang fast-food eatery offering points-based "preferred services" for regular visitors
A restaurant in the North Korean capital of Pyongyang is now issuing branded prepaid reward cards to frequent customers, a photo recently obtained by NK News showed. The card, issued by Myohyanggwan, a fast-food eatery in downtown Pyongyang, appears to work as a gift card, which customers can load with local currency. “Myohyanggwan provides preferred services for customers who visit our restaurant through the card,” a notice advertising the points-to-cash loyalty platform explained. The cash can be topped up with up to KPW200,000 worth of funds, it continued, adding that reward points can differ depending on the amount of money added. © Korea Risk Group. All rights reserved. |
