wee is not just another loyalty system. wee is a completely new rewards program that gives customers actual cash - not points - for every purchase with participating retailers.

wee is already available at local retailers in 24 countries, more than ten of which are in Europe, and the number is increasing every day. The system helps independent local retailers and service providers by making it easy for them to attract new customers and generate repeat business.

Customers can also save money at multiple online shops with well-known brands that are part of the network.

Save Pounds on every purchase  

wee doesn't dictate what a customer receives. Instead, users get cold, hard cash, so they always save at the checkout. Each time a customer uses their wee loyalty card or smartphone app, they get Pounds, not points. The money collected can be redeemed at their next purchase or, if they prefer, the credit can be paid directly into their bank account.

Participating retailers and service providers are promoted for free in a smartphone app and on the website wee.com. Customers can search for particular products and offers too. When making a purchase, a customer's wee account is credited by the retailer as a loyalty bonus. This occurs either by scanning a QR-Code on the customer's weeCard or in the customer's weeApp. The weeApp will show offers of interest to individual customers on their smartphones too. Customers buying online are forwarded to the retailer's website, and crediting is automatic onto their weeCard or weeApp.

Participating in this cashback system is free of charge. Money collected in local retailers is usually credited straight away and can be paid out up to 36 months later. Customers always have access to an overview of their credit and transactions via their smartphone or at wee.com.

Boosting the retail sector 

Unlike other bonus systems, the wee system doesn't just concentrate on large retail chains; wee specifically helps independent local retailers. For these retailers, this system represents the perfect platform for helping customers find their business both online and on mobile devices.

Small to medium-sized retailers and service providers often find the online market problematic and challenging. For these types of businesses, the system represents a simple yet professional entry into online sales. The weeCONOMY group of companies draws on a wealth of experience advising retailers. wee can therefore quickly and easily support retailers to help digitise their business.

What's more, wee offers retailers and service providers the opportunity to produce customer cards designed with their own branding. Boutiques, restaurants or hotels - in fact any type of business - can always be at the forefront of their customers' minds. The wee system also offers businesses, clubs or associations the opportunity to offer an incentive programme, issuing their employees or members with weeCards which can even be pre-loaded with credit.

Fundamentally wee pays a commission to everyone who introduces customers into their system, when a purchase is made either locally and online.

Benefits for everyone 

Everyone can benefit and save money both locally and online. And it's not just customers and retailers who benefit from this system. Because wee supports independent local retailers and service providers, the system is an effective way to help regenerate towns and city centres which are increasingly challenged by large retail chains or online stores. For example, wee is already seeing many towns and cities across Europe launch their own 'City Cashback Card'.

The weeCONOMY Group helps other important people too: children in need. The not-for-profit association weeCHARITY for kids, supports disadvantaged children worldwide with financial and material resources, quickly and without complication.

About wee  

wee is a cashback system where customers save money when making their daily purchases. wee focuses particularly on helping independent local retailers and service providers. The wee marketplace, with its closed payment loop for customers and retailers, connects online and offline retailing. Every payment transaction benefits the customer. There are absolutely no hidden charges. The cash collected can either be redeemed when making a purchase, or instead be paid out to the customer's bank account. In the UK one wee equals £1 - this is dependent on the respective currency in each country. Especially in relation to receiving and redeeming cashback, and with payment transactions, wee works together with a partner bank.
