The Ascott Limited’s loyalty programme, Ascott Star Rewards (ASR), is celebrating its second anniversary with the Celebrate The Little Joys campaign, offering double bonus points and complimentary tier upgrades to reward and thank its members.
Membership in ASR has grown over 400% since its launch in 2019. ASR members contribute about 90% of Ascott’s direct bookings online and over 60% of ASR members are repeat guests. ASR members also spend 36% more with Ascott compared to non-members.
The Discover ASR mobile app was introduced in October 2020, and has received 130,000 downloads. To date, over 1.3 million fans and followers of ASR connect and engage across the Discover ASR social channels on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.
Tan Bee Leng, Ascott’s MD for Brand & Marketing said: “We appreciate the strong support from our ASR members and are celebrating ASR’s second anniversary by providing our members with more rewards. Amid the challenging COVID-19 environment, we continue to stand by our ASR members and launched a series of initiatives to allow them to maximise their membership.
"These include offering members bonus ASR points if they had chosen to be refunded in ASR points* for their booking cancellations; ASR points purchase feature, ASR Elite Status Match and CapitaStar-ASR Points Exchange programmes which allowed ASR members to gain more perks or upgrade their membership tier. In December 2020, we launched Southeast Asia’s largest promotion with about S$13 million worth of goodies up for grabs on Shopee.”
“The launch of Discover ASR mobile app was also key to providing our members with contactless services along with the introduction of our Ascott Cares commitment to provide our guests with a safe home away from home. ASR members can look forward to more from us as we continue to improve our offerings to strengthen ASR’s position as one of the most rewarding global loyalty programmes in the serviced residence industry,” added Tan.
