According to news in September 2022, Starbucks officially launched the Web3 customer loyalty program Starbucks Odyssey. The project will be deployed on and supported by the Polygon network. The program combines the Starbucks Rewards loyalty program with an NFT platform, allowing its customers to earn and purchase digital assets to unlock exclusive experiences and rewards, such as perks or free drinks. With Odyssey, Starbucks is trying to give loyal customers a wider range of rewards while also building community.
