• AirAsia Rewards partners with MiL.k for global marketing collaboration and web3 exclusive events on The Sandbox. 

• Plans to introduce MiL.k to global users through AirAsia rewards, a travel loyalty programme with over 33 million members globally, and The Sandbox, one of the most representative metaverse platforms in the world. 

KUALA LUMPUR, 29 JULY 2024 - AirAsia Rewards, the loyalty programme of Asia’s leading OTA AirAsia MOVE, will be partnering with Milk Partners, the operating company of the blockchain based loyalty integration platform “MiL.k”, and “The Sandbox”, the global metaverse platform with over 5 million users globally to explore marketing opportunities in the Web3 era.

The marketing partnership announcement was attended by Nicole Tan, Head of AirAsia Rewards, Jungmin Cho, CEO of Milk Partners, and George Wong, country manager of The Sandbox Malaysia and SEA Partnerships in AirAsia MOVE’s headquarters in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Through this partnership, the three companies have committed to actively collaborate in co-marketing initiatives, targeting  global users to participate in metaverse events and offering rewards to those participants.

Nicole Tan, Head of AirAsia Rewards, said, "In 2022, we launched a partnership between AirAsia Rewards and MiL.k, enabling members to exchange their AirAsia points and MiL.k coins. With the extended collaboration now including The Sandbox, we expect to offer unique and innovative member engagement initiatives in the metaverse. This demonstrates our ongoing commitment to provide an enhanced and more satisfying point experience to our members.”

Jungmin Cho, CEO of Milk Partners said “We will provide the new marketing channels to the partners and develop its use case to provide real benefits to users. As much as we build more use cases, MiL.k will build great references and it will lead MiL.k to be informed and approached to global users easily.” 

George Wong, country manager of the Sandbox Malaysia and SEA Partnerships, said "This collaboration is a true manifestation of the collaborative spirit in Web3. We are extremely excited that a Malaysian and regional institution like AirAsia rewards is being supported by someone as innovative as MiL.k to develop truly engaging experiences in The Sandbox. Personally, I can't wait to see what innovation this partnership between MiL.k and AirAsia rewards would deliver and it's something I believe will be looked forward to by fans in Southeast Asia and beyond."
