EMR tokens will be tradable, exchangeable, and redeemable

Dubai, UAE — 14 October, 2019 — Emaar, the Dubai-based property developer, is releasing a new blockchain-based referral and loyalty platform later this year. Named EMR, the platform aims to reward Emaar customers with tokens for their loyalty and business referrals. EMR tokens will not only be redeemable in Emaar’s real estate, hotels, ecommerce operations and malls, but can also be traded with other users.

This is the first product of its kind being launched in the world, which aims to provide Emaar’s customers with digital tokens using blockchain technology on a mobile application. Tokenisation of loyalty points not only provides users with all the benefits current loyalty schemes offer, but also provides real monetary value through external trading platforms.

Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman of Emaar, stated: “We didn’t become Emaar by standing still, or by thinking small. By launching the EMR utility token ecosystem, Emaar is expanding the concept of connection. We aren’t just looking into the future — we are building it.”

Consumers will be able to use Emaar’s dedicated EMR mobile application on Android and iOS to access the referral and loyalty system and earn or redeem EMR tokens. The platform and tokens are built on Quorum, the JPmorgan variant of Ethereum, and are expected to be released before the end of the year, with an early sale of rights having been conducted by Bitcoin Suisse AG and ending in October.

Hadi Kabalan, Director of Tokenisation at Emaar, said: “We have an existing ecosystem and a large customer base, as well as millions of further potential users globally who have yet to discover Emaar. Our blockchain token platform positions us to grow our user engagement with today’s digital-native, mobile-first generation who expect a fairer internet and want to be part of the conversation.”

The recent Tokenization, Loyalty and Blockchain survey by KPMG LLP revealed that consumers across all age groups are increasingly willing to make purchases with tokens, indicating a wide range of new opportunities for businesses to engage with their customers and transform commerce using blockchain. The findings also highlighted the fact that the majority of consumers familiar with the definition of blockchain-based tokens believe it will enable them to make better use of loyalty reward points.

Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman of Emaar Properties, said: “The growth of the sukuk market has been tremendous and has helped bridge the gap in infrastructure financing particularly with projects linking to the real economy. Listing our Sukuk on Nasdaq Dubai provides our issuance with a well-regulated platform with high visibility and close links to market participants regionally and around the world.”

 

His Excellency Essa Kazim, Governor of Dubai International Financial Centre, Secretary General of Dubai Islamic Economy Development Centre, and Chairman of Dubai Financial Market, said: “The cooperation between Emaar group and Nasdaq Dubai underlines Dubai’s strength and depth in the Sukuk sector as part of the Emirate’s growth as the global Capital of the Islamic Economy, under the initiative launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President and Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai. Dubai will continue to develop its exchange infrastructure to serve Sukuk issuers seeking an effective listing environment.”

A 750 million US dollar Sukuk issued by Emaar Properties in 2016 is also listed on Nasdaq Dubai, as well as a 750 million US dollar Sukuk listed by Emaar Malls in 2014.

 

Abdul Wahed Al Fahim, Chairman of Nasdaq Dubai, said: “This listing by Emaar Properties underlines the strong activity that we are seeing in the Sukuk sector, with listings so far this year on Nasdaq Dubai from UAE and overseas issuers valued at a total of 8.85 billion US dollars. The exchange will maintain its strong support for Sukuk issuances for the benefit of issuers and investors and to promote successful economic development.”

Hamed Ali, Chief Executive of Nasdaq Dubai, said: “We look forward to further strengthening our close collaboration with the Emaar group, in order to support its financing activities as it expands its development as one of the UAE’s most dynamic and prominent enterprises. As one of the world’s largest exchanges for Sukuk listings with a total nominal value of 58.7 billion US dollars, with 55% of that value coming from non-UAE issuers, we are preparing for further listings from a range of regional and international public and private sector issuers.”

Emaar Properties’ 500 million USD Sukuk listed exclusively on Nasdaq Dubai on September 18, 2019.
