Founded in July 2003, Lyoness has spread across the international market:
Today, the Lyoness shopping community has over 2 million members in 22 European
countries, the USA and Canada, as well as the Middle East. It has over 100,000
points of acceptance from 18,500 loyalty partners. With the opening of the United Arab
Emirates (Dubai), Lyoness is now active on 3 continents.
The Lyoness Cashback Card – The benefit card of the future! With its business idea,
Lyoness International AG which was founded as Lyoness Holding Europe AG in July 2003
has offered the benefit card of the future since its founding! It connects members and loyalty
partners together as an independent shopping community. When you shop and utilise the
Lyoness Cashback Card, vouchers, electronic vouchers (Mobile Cashback) or if you shop
online with Lyoness loyalty partners, you receive money back with every purchase – country
and sector spanning.
“Together we are strong!” This motto is true for many aspects of life. Hubert Freidl, Founder
and the CEO of Lyoness international AG, developed a business idea based around this philosophy
In 2001 the trained wholesale dealer had the idea of creating a union of likeminded people to form
a shopping community. This became such an enormous shopping force that members get money
back, with every purchase.
An idea takes hold. It didn't take long to become a success: Within the first year, the Lyoness
community already had 7,600 members. The constantly growing number of members quickly
showed that Hubert Freidl had found a gap in the market. Today, Lyoness Europe AG has 350
employees that make up a constantly growing, future orientated and strong team who
currently support 2 million members, as well as training those interested in the business, of the
benefits available to them with Lyoness.
The international set-up of the Lyoness network is planned for 33 countries in Europe, as well as Asia and Africa.
The countries Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia Poland, Italy, Turkey, England, Greece, Ireland, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Macedonia have already been but in place successfully.
With the founding of Lyoness America Inc. in July 2009, and its opening on the 6th of February 2010, Lyoness has also laid the foundation stones for further success overseas.
4 types of shopping. By paying with the Cashback Card, vouchers from Lyoness loyalty
partners, or with electronic vouchers, members can receive a % of the value of their purchase
in their personal cash account. Since April 2009 they can also enjoy the Lyoness benefits via
Online Shopping. Once they have reached a minimum of E10.00 in their cash account, this will be
transferred to their personal bank account. For every purchase made by direct or indirect
members that they have recommended, they will also receive a further 0.5% of the purchase
value in their cash account.
With the Lyoness Application programme for Smartphones, the Lyoness community now has another payment possibility available to them. With this App, members can login to the website at m.lyoness.ag from their mobile phones anywhere in the world. As long as the member has enough money in their cash account, the electronic voucher can be downloaded. As well as the previous types of shopping that were available the electronic voucher is another attractive way to shop and receive money back.
