Over the past 12 months, My Rewards has invested significantly in customer experience improvements, technology, brand and marketing, reinforcing the Company’s global growth strategy.

Wyndham
In addition to the Ria Money Transfer contract, My Rewards has won a contract with Wyndham Destinations Asia Pacific (“WDAP”), a division of Travel + Leisure Co.
