“Earn points and get Bitcoin, too”—Bithumb offers new members up to 100 times the rewards

[Financial News] Bithumb has launched a service linking Bitcoin rewards to OK Cashbag point accrual. New members receive up to 100 times the rewards offered to existing members.
According to the virtual asset industry on the 15th, Bithumb launched the previous day “OK Cashbag Bitcoin Double Accumulation,” a service developed in partnership with OK Cashbag, an integrated mileage service. Once users agree to the partnership, Bitcoin is automatically awarded when they earn points at OK Cashbag partner stores or through the app. No separate buy order or additional deposit is required.
The amount users can earn varies by membership type. Existing members can receive Bitcoin worth 50 won for every 50 OK Cashbag points they earn. The limit is 100 won per day and 3,000 won per month. By contrast, new members who sign up for Bithumb receive 100 times the rewards, with Bitcoin payouts of up to 10,000 won per day and 50,000 won per month.
Additional benefits are also available to new members. Those who make at least one transaction on Bithumb after agreeing to the partnership will receive 20,000 OK Cashbag points. With the additional 20,000 won in investment support for new members, they can receive benefits worth up to 90,000 won.
Eligible Bitcoin accruals include not only points earned through the OK Cashbag app but also purchases made with partner credit cards and the prepaid Oki Card. This means users can earn Bitcoin through everyday spending, including dining out, fueling up and going to the movies.
A Bithumb official said, “We developed this service so users can naturally accumulate virtual assets in their daily lives without placing separate buy orders,” adding, “We plan to expand the range of assets that can be earned and the number of partner companies.”
Meanwhile, Bithumb is also running its “Take-Profit Double-Up” event through November 10 for new users and users with no trading history this year. Users who buy and sell assets classified as “major” in the KRW market and realize a profit will receive additional rewards of up to 10,000 won per day, with a total cap of 500,000 won. However, members who have participated in other events are not eligible.
