Heymax and Visa launch campaign to reward Singapore’s public transport commuters

Heymax x Visa Campaign

Want to earn miles for your daily commute with Heymax and Visa?

Heymax, a lifestyle rewards app based in Singapore, has teamed up with Visa to launch a new campaign focused on sustainability.

From now until 28 November 2024, Heymax users can earn rewards just for taking public transit. 

Commuters who link their Visa card to the Heymax app will receive three Max Miles for every dollar spent on MRT or bus rides.

This small reward adds up over time, while also encouraging greener travel choices.

Riders can accumulate miles with every trip, bringing them closer to prizes like business class flights to Japan worth 200,000 miles.

Bus MRT for Visa

Joe Lu, Heymax CEO, noted that they are seeing a growing passion among Singaporeans to travel free using loyalty points.

While the miles can fund future adventures, the core goal is to nurture sustainable habits daily, he added.

By incentivizing public transport, Heymax aims to balance promoting local green actions with global travel experiences for members.

Research shows Singaporeans increasingly rely on loyalty programs for travel rewards and Heymax data found Agoda, Trip.com, Klook, and Singapore Airlines to be top merchants.

The loyalty market is projected to grow almost 10% annually through 2028.

This campaign also complements Singapore’s $60 billion public transport investment by 2030.

“From MRT & Bus to Miles: Heymax & Visa Reward Your Rides” Campaign T&Cs

General

  • The campaign runs until a total of 2 million Max Miles are earned across all Heymax users.
  • There’s no limit on how many Max Miles each user can earn. Miles from bus or train rides will be pending until transactions are approved and then added to your account.
  • New users who link a Visa card for the first time during the campaign get a bonus of 100 Max Miles.

Grand Prize Drawing

To enter the drawing to win big prizes:

  • Take at least one bus or train ride with your linked card during the campaign
  • Keep a card linked through the end of the campaign

Two lucky winners will be selected randomly from eligible users. The more you transit, the better your chances of winning!

Winners will be announced after the campaign ends and contacted by email.

The company just raised $3.5 million led by January Capital, with other investors like Tenity and Ascend Angels participating.

They are pretty new in the market, having been founded in late 2023 by four former Meta engineers.

Their CEO Joe Lu says people have a hard time taking advantage of all their reward options and Heymax.ai wants to make it easy to unlock rewards from regular spending.

Their goal is to help each customer earn a free vacation every year.

Led by January Capital

January Capital believes in Heymax.ai’s vision of making rewards programs more connected.

Many rewards programs are limited to one company, making it harder for merchants to attract new customers and for consumers to manage their spending, noted Roy Ong, an investor at January Capital.

He added that Heymax.ai aims to change that and solve these problems for both merchants and customers.

With the team’s experience in tech, there’s confidence they could achieve this vision.

Growing customer base

Over 50,000 people have used Heymax.ai so far to earn over 50 million Max Miles, redeeming more than 10,000 flights.

The platform also gives recommendations on what credit cards offer the best rewards for your purchases so you don’t have to spend time doing your research.

Major stores like Amazon, Apple, and Grab are partners, so you earn miles when shopping there.

Heymax.ai has also partnered with Visa so you can track rewards from all your Visa cards in one place.

Even companies like SingSaver and Airwallex are starting to offer Max Miles too to reward their customers.

Expansion plans

After launching in Singapore, Heymax.ai expanded to Australia in November 2023.

They plan to enter more Asia Pacific markets soon.

CEO Joe Lu mentioned that he’s very excited about a future where customers worldwide can easily maximize their rewards and get more free trips from Heymax.ai each year to create cherished memories.

“To achieve that, we are firing on all cylinders to bring more partners on board to reward customers with Max Miles,” he added.
