There is a new and easier way to get paid when shopping in Coles.
Since Tuesday, Wisconsin-based retailer Menomoney Falls has been releasing its Coles Rewards program nationwide, replacing the previous loyalty program Yes 2U Rewards, in which members earned points on purchases and converted them into rewards.
Now, with the Sa program generic program, members receive 5% call cash per day on every purchase, as well as individual deals and benefits such as birthday gifts.
“We eliminated points as part of call rewards and converted our currency into calls cash,” Greg Revalle, Kohli’s chief marketing officer, told USA Today. “So it’s very easy for users to understand what they are getting, what they have available and how to recover it.”

The 30 million members of the Yes2U Rewards program, which was launched nationwide in 2014, will automatically be converted to Kohli’s rewards, and existing Yes2U Rewards points will be converted to the new program.
All Kohli’s shoppers, including members, will receive $ 10 in cash for every $ 50 they spend during Koh’s cash promotional event, Revelle said.

The new program simplifies Kohli’s overall loyalty proposals by combining long-term Koh program cash rewards.
“Users want to recover their call cash, so we want to make it as easy and hassle-free as we can do,” he said. “Part of that is communicating and making sure they know what they have.”
Reminders can be obtained through the app, via email and text messaging if members sign up.
Cole began developing two years ago and piloted it in 13 markets: San Antonio, Austin, Texas; Baltimore; Buffalo and Rochester, New York; Indianapolis; Kansas City and St. Louis, Missouri; Minneapolis; Nashville, Tennessee; Phoenix; Rally, North Carolina; Washington D.C.
Coal CEO Michelle Gass said loyalty was an important part of our strategy, referring to operations released nationwide during retailer quarterly earnings in August.
“We have seen good results in our pilot and we are confident that this new program will further enhance our position as a leader in the industry,” Gas said.
Like other loyalty programs, including Macy’s, Nordstrom and JC Penny, store credit card holders have additional benefits. Revelle said shoppers with Kohli’s credit cards will have access to more discounts and can be rewarded faster with personalized offers.
“We wanted to integrate this personalization with fidelity in a way that makes it more personal, really pleasing to customers, differentiates the program and makes it more fun,” Revelle said.
