CSI CREDIT SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL INC. - SUPERSTAR GROUP LAUNCHES MAJOR LOYALTY INITIATIVE WITH CSI
BURNABY, BRITISH COLUMBIA-- CSI Credit Systems International Inc. President James Christensen announced today that the Superstar Group Ltd., a Richmond based group of sport apparel and footware companies, has chosen CSI to develop and operate a customer loyalty system for them. The program will be operated at 54 store locations in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.
The Superstar Group will be launching two customer tracking and loyalty programs using CSI's ERNEX(TM) system. The Superstar Ultimate Card program will operate at Superstar, Planet Superstar, Lady Superstar, Superstar Kids, Champion Store, Adidas Store and Nike Shop locations. The Shoes Strings Plus Club card program will operate at all Shoe String locations. ERNEX features such as Instant Win and Electronic Gift Cards will be used in addition to the "points" based rewards program. CSI's terminals will also be used to process credit card and Interac debit card payments at all locations.
The real-time ability of ERNEX will inform Superstar customers of their "point" totals immediately at the point of sale, by printing the information on the customer's receipt. CSI will provide detailed reporting on participating customers purchase patterns to Superstar management on an on-going basis. CSI derives revenue from the sale of its GT-100 terminals and the processing of loyalty transactions.
"CSI's experience in executing card based loyalty solutions and the ease of integrating their solution into our retail operation were big factors in choosing CSI," says Andrea Johnston, Chief Financial Officer for the Superstar Group. "ERNEX's host based flexibility means that future program improvements will be quick and cost effective, preserving our ability to keep programs fresh for our customers. This program is a major initiative for us and CSI has become an important partner."
"Superstar is a leader in their industry and we are very pleased to have such a high profile client participate in the ERNEX network," says James Christensen, President & CEO of CSI. "Superstar is a believer in the value of customer loyalty and retention."
CSI is positioned to lead businesses into the future through the innovative management of transaction information utilizing its multifunction point of sale terminals and advanced parking equipment, value-added card programs and data collection.
