The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf launches its Mobile App

If you love The Coffee Bean & Tea leaf (I will call it Coffee Bean here), you will love its mobile app. With the app, you can get the latest promo or even top it up using your credit card or in selected Coffee Bean stores.

What I like about the app is that it does not use a physical card. You can use the app on your smartphone to buy drinks or food at selected outlets. And every purchase will let you earn loyalty points.

Currently, there are only 11 of them.

  1. Great World City
  2. Guthrie House
  3. JEM
  4. Jurong Point
  5. Nanyang Technological University
  6. National University Hospital
  7. Ngee Ann Polytechnic
  8. Palawan Beach, Sentosa
  9. The Rail Mall
  10. Tiong Bahru Plaza
  11. Vivocity
  12. West Mall

I have not tried it before but it looks simple (if you browse through the app, you can see a short video clip on how it works). Too bad, not all outlets have the machines to scan the QR code.

BTW, if you register now, you can get a S$5 voucher. Not bad. The app is available on Android and on iOS.

By downloading The Coffee Bean Mobile App to their smart phones and loading it with value anytime, anywhere with a credit card or at selected The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® outlets *, customers can enjoy quick, cashless purchasing experience at the touch of a button on their smart phones at digital scanners at the store counters. They can reload their mobile wallet with their credit card through the app itself or at the outlets when the value runs low. Other useful features of the app include transaction history, e-vouchers, news feeds of the latest special events and promotions, drinks listing, personalized greeting, store locator and operating hours.

In addition, The Coffee Bean Mobile App also doubles up as a loyalty app that rewards regular customers with loyalty points called “BEANS” which can be subsequently redeemed against purchases at the outlets.

The Coffee Bean Mobile App can be downloaded from the App Store and Google Play Store. By completing a one-time simple registration, customers will enjoy a complimentary $5 e-voucher. Other rewards include a complimentary slice of cake during their birthday month and double bean points when they purchase on their birthday.
