Zomato Piggybank..An instant hit : Amasses 2 lakh subscribers in just 48 hrs

Piggybank, a subscription-based loyalty program launched by Zomato seems to be a hit product of the Alibaba-backed company. Within 2 days (or 48 hours), the premium membership program has received 200,000 sign-ups.
This is a jaw-dropping figure for the membership program which was made available for select users on the iOS and Android platforms.
Zomato also claims that Piggybank has 6 times more traction than its previous premium subscription-based model within first 48 hours. According to the company’s press statement, one of the fastest selling premium membership programs Zomato Gold has over 400,000 subscribers.
The above figure clarifies that Piggybank subscription has already reached half the number as its Gold membership program. With the growing appetite of the consumers and expected mass rollout, Piggybank looks to break all the previous records of a subscription-led loyalty program by any foodtech company in India.
The development comes against the backdrop of Zomato’s hitting 600,000 orders during Football World Cup final. The company had also claimed that it crossed 13 million order run rate in July, a 136 per cent up from its 5.5 million orders in March.
For uninitiated, Piggybanks lets consumers save 10 per cent every time they order. On every successful order, user accounts will be credited with 10 per cent of ‘Z Coins’ which can be encashed on further orders.
Meanwhile, one also can earn Z Coins in Piggybank while using it in a particular order. Piggybank subscription is available for free to users ordering more than five times a month. From September onwards, Piggybank will be a paid subscription (Rs 299).
This is an attempt by 10 years old company to create a moat of subscription-led userbase and get an edge over rival Swiggy. Interestingly, the Tencent-backed foodtech company claims about 15 million monthly order run rate.

What is TRP & GRP in Television Advertising ...

Television holds the title of the largest mass medium for advertising for more than 60 years now and that designation has not been overtaken even after the entry and growth of internet medium. It is an imperative and consequential component of media planning because of its pervasiveness, impact, mass reach and targeting abilities. Albeit the world has come a long way in going digital, Television advertising still plays a paramount role when it comes to marketing products and services.

How Blockchain can change India’s entertainment industry

Digital technologies have played a big role in transforming the way content is produced and distributed in the entertainment industry over the past few years. Despite the many advancements, some challenges remain. The issues of revenue leakages, rights/ license management across locations, censorship and monopolistic distribution practices still exist and, in some cases, have grown. For instance, the Indian film industry, the world’s largest by a number of films produced, loses close to Rs 18,000 crore in piracy and less than half of the movies produced get a chance to reach the audience.
