JOLLIBEE HAPPY PLUS CARD

 

JOLLIBEE HAPPY PLUS CARD and I.

Two Filipino brands partner to bring the country's first cashless payment card with rewards. Jollibee and BPI had a ceremonial tap of Happy Plus Card at Jollibee Mind Museum at 32nd street, Bonifacio Global City yes simply called the Fort last July 9, 2012. 

BPI is providing the payment infrastructure for Jollibee using the latest technology NFC (near-field communication) with the introduction of an NFC-powered privilege card called  Happy Plus.

So, what is Happy Plus Card?

Happy Plus Card is a cashless payment card with rewards. The HappyPlus Card is basically a reloadable debit card powered by an NFC chip.

 

This system reminds me of Octopus card in Hong Kong and Top up Card in Singapore. Wooooot! The Philippines will soon be a tech-savvy country. I can imagine paying using an NFC card in MRT/LRT, buses, restaurants. Ahhh the possibilities are endless.

Jollibee decided to use NFC for their new Happy Plus cashless payment system simply because payment is much faster. 

This is the soon to be obsolete way of paying using the debit card technology. Yes,this is how a usual mag-stripe debit card operates:

• you give your card to the cashier
• cashier swipes the card on the payment terminal
• then wait for the connection to happen.
• then wait for the receipt to be printed.
• then you sign the receipt. 
• then you get back your card and a copy of the receipt. 

Way too tedious for a fast food counter that has a long waiting line.

NFC changes all that. 

With Happy Plus Card all you have to do is tap your card on the terminal to pay and you’re done! 

Just see how easy it is in this video:  

When do I get rewards point?

You get rewards points every time you use your HappyPlus Card in the participating stores. Every 50 peso purchase gets you 1 point. 1 point is equal to 1 peso.
